Too bad. Zerrikania sounded cool before they put it as "we love Arabs as blacks" stamp.Now I hope they never revisit it.
That wasn't Zerrikania though. Zerrikania is a like a combination of Amazons and Turks. This here was Ofir that was only mentioned in passing in the book. So they had came up with their own spin on it. And I agree that it felt like damage control.
Zerrkanians in the books and games for that matter were handled much better. In the books you had those Zerrikanian twins-bodyguards that Geralt fucked. And in the first game you Azar Javed who wasn't a middleeastern caricature.
