"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"
I don't care about Ciri being the main character, I like her, but I read the books and I do care about them feeling the need to make the character a witcher when this isn't the case in the books; she couldn't be a witcher nor does she need to.
It's not like I'm writing the game off, but it's a significant departure from the books, which makes me cautious, and I feel like challenging people to "read the books," is a bit disingenuous here.
But how hyper masculine gamers are going to keep being masculine if they don't have a role model like Gerald? This is a plot to feminize the male population and make them sex slaves of the women.
