"You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books" (www.gamesradar.com)

If you need consume X media to be able to enjoy Y media, we have a problem there, pal :/

My man Geralt looked like he was in dire need of a nap during the entire run of Witcher 3. Let him rest, people.

No rest for the wicked, and witchers be real wicked.

I don't like that we've all allowed "Woke" to become a bad thing. I want "woke" media. I want diversity of talent and experiences. I want awareness of social issues.

People call me a conspiracy theorist but the message that is woke has been purposely molded into something for conservatives to hate.

Nothing threatens a “democratic” capitalist state more than social awareness, not even facism.

Red pill fuckbois got mad that progressives took the concept of “waking up“ away from them

Because just having two characters with the exact same lines is boring, Gerry has had 3 games now, I want to explore someone else as a character, with new motivations, character flaws etc

Let's be honest, he's only got 1 game. I tried going back to Witcher 1 and 2 after playing 3 and it's impossible to adjust to the older game UI. Modding or tweaking it is also not worth it imo so I wouldn't mind another Geralt game.

I don't like 2 out of the the 3 geralt games, so I'm going to pretend two don't exist too support my beliefs is some serious snowflake energy

[–] [email protected] 0 points 21 hours ago

Snowflake energy? Na man I'm just realistic. I have never met anyone who recommended Witcher 1/2 online or irl. It's always about Witcher 3, and that's because it's still very playable and one of the best games ever.

It's the less extreme version of Baldur's Gate 3. Technically, there are two other games, but you won't seriously recommend games 1 and 2 to anyone.

I know you understand my point, and it's easier to say I'm a snowflake rather than actually say anything useful.
