I get this somewhat but including ciri? I feel like there was none of that with her character. What about her struck you as that?

hot take: i fucking hated the way ciri and every single other woman in witcher3 was written/portrayed…
they all felt like they were written by incels who have never met or conversed with an actual real woman. they were shallow game of thrones/fantasy tropes and felt like walking talking cliches. i literally cringed through every interaction…

she was basically wesley crusher, without the character growth… she was a plot device, not a character.

And this also explains why they’ve “grown” her into a plastic, lip-plumped, reality-TV-star banshee. The character model looks awful.

These types of comments ignore the fact that Geralt is written in the exact same way.
The “romance” dialog options tend to be god awful.

And if I’m honest the books are similar. I like them, but all the women are super sexy super hot and they exist for Geralt to have sex with
