    Short sections where you play as a teenage white girl = not politics Entire game playing as white woman = politics

    The only answer they should have to provide is “because we wanted to and anyone who has a problem with that can go fuck themselves.”

    I like that they call out how layered she is. I really loved her in the books and I’m excited to see how they capture that in the game.

          Yeah, there are multiple endings based on arbitrary choices made in the some of the dialogues scattered throughout the game. In the “good” ending, Ciri wins and survives, and Geralt gifts her a silver sword, implying that she becomes a witcher

    Its okay, you can say it. Modern identity politics and existing market familiarity.

    I mean, it would have been maybe more interesting to me to play as my own character in the Witcher universe, but Ciri is not the worst choice in the world, even if she was an extremely predictable pick for protagonist.

    EDIT: “Come to Lemmy, we are way more chill and less hostile than Reddit.” Lol, whoever told me this was obviously lying. It’s exactly the same here, just with more Tankies.
