  I didn’t played the game or read the books but I think if you are playing a game that is called Witcher and the Witcher himself is missing that is a big issue.

  Normally you would get a new game with a new title but big companies want to use the IP and think using a known title is always better than coming up with a new title.

  As I said I didn’t played Witcher 3 so dunno if it makes sense, but I wouldn’t be surprised if people are unhappy when their main character is missing in the game.

  Tomb Raider is not a woman protagonist game though, at least in the first game they wanted to have Indiana Jones but didn’t got the rights to it. So the developers replaced the assets with a female.

  In whole series there is not much that makes her a woman, more like an American gun-maniac guy that looks like a girl.

  That is not true. Steam games are normally much cheaper, you can also get tons of free games over Steam or Epic. Biggest issue with Steam Deck is the size. It is adult sized even my wife is not comfortable with it and it is too big for children. You would need to use it in combination with a controller.

  Additionally you can get the games much cheaper. Steam games are normally much cheaper than the Nintendo closed store. You also have Hero launcher which allows you Epic And Gog games. Epic gifts every week a new game. That alone is more than most switch players will own.

  I like sandbox games where you can jump in any time and build further. If you are looking for a time sink like game, I’d recommend, Subnautica, Satisfactory, Factorio. I’d also recommend shorter games where you can just finish it in an evening without big commitment. Or rougelike, rougelite games where you can just finish a run, like Slay the spire, monster train, DCSS.

  Lastly you don’t have to play most popular games, it is OK to play old games or lesser known ones. I play time to time HoMM3, might and magic series etc.
