Can’t wait to see the Netflix adaptation again with Henry Cavill as Ciri.
You’re joking but I feel like that would satisfy EVERYONE’s fantasies
Just cast him as all the roles. in everything
He’s busy… Doing everything
I hope she knows how to play Gwent.
I liked gwent. Tried the app, didn’t understand wtf was happening, deleted it.
As if anyone expected to play as any other character than Ciri.
I hoped for a witcher (whichever gender) from one of the other schools, tbh
So did I, but I mean, given the current game development climate, Ciri was an extremely predictable pick.
Not only is Ciri a woman, which modern games seem to be making super majority of main protagonists these days, but she also has market familiarity. Her character is recognizable and therefore has a builtin audience, where a new character does not.
In my opinion it doesn’t make all that much sense because of major Witcher 3 spoilers.
WITCHER 3 SPOILER BELOW
Spoiler
How so? One of the endings literally has geralt gift a witcher sword to Ciri. The only thing I’m confused about is how she now seems to have the witcher mutations
Witcher books spoiler
One of the early Witcher books mentioned that Ciri was given some witcher drugs while she was training at Kaer Morhen, but didn’t undergo the trial of the grasses at Triss’ request.
Continuation of the book spoilers
Wacky books tbh. I don’t remember thinking it was for her to undergo trail they gave it to her, but mostly because that’s all they really knew to do
It makes perfect sense with two of the three endings, and could even work with the third depending on how much CDPR wants to explain the cosmology behind the white frost.
It’s almost definitely a break with the series in that you likely won’t be able to import your save file, which always was a core feature of the series. There are also other lore details that don’t add up here, which have already been explained. There could’ve been many ways to progress the story but I don’t see how that is possible here. It’s most likely a soft reboot.
It could work the same way as the three origin stories in CP77: each ending from The Witcher 3 leading to a separate intro story with a time skip before the main game begins.
I guess that could be possible though I doubt it. The 3 origin stories in Cyberpunk were extremely shallow and didn’t add anything to the story. I don’t see why they would go for it again when it didn’t work out last time.
Some games do allow you to import saves from older games that have swapped the MC. They just take the choices you made in the story arc and use that to create conditions for the world you’re now in. But it’s a rare occasion from what I know.
I was hoping for Eskel or Letho to be honest. Ciri is a safe choice but a bit on the boring side. Eskel would have been a lot more multi-layered protagonist and dialogues would have been funnier.
Looks great… but it uses Unreal Engine 5
What’s wrong with unreal engine 5…
It’s very heavy on your computer
GOOD
I knew at the end of 3 she was gonna take Gerald’s mantle at least for one game
“It’s Geralt.” -Geralt
I can’t wait!!! A little sad the OG Ciri VA didn’t come back tho
Wow.
