Place your bets on the number of lesbian scenes.

The real question is, will Ciri have a zerrikanian love interest

 

[thesecret1]

Ciri will have saggy tits and roastbeef pussy to own the chuds.

They fucked up Cyberpunk 2077 on release but made it "good" later on. It's another generic rpg game in the end.
Witcher 3 made the expectations for the 4th skyrocket, they're gonna fuck up in both categories.
There's no way in hell they're making a success out of this shite.

One factor that made witcher enjoyable was Geralt being a interesting character. Ciri is boring as fuck. I felt like A ciri led game could've been a good spin-off game, but that wouldn't sell well would it?

They have an SIB person employed, the Witcher is over. It's dead on arrival. Fun to watch as a trainwreck, and as any trainwreck, from a distance.

You are actually retarded if you complain about her look. She's a polish woman, everyone knows they turn into baba yaga as soon as they turn 25 and older

Average Slavic aging process :

Well white people mostly age like milk anyway

 

[S.H.O.D.A.N.]

Yeah, I've seen some of the materials CDPR put out regarding canon. Considering how indistinguishable they were from Amazon and Netflix fig leaf excuses for beating the source material to death, it's looking pretty fucking grim for Witcher.

Just got curious about reading the books. Need some trash to pass time this ought to be as good as any.

Just found the complete Witcher on some inventory. Good enough?

They're alright, but get worse and worse overall in the later books, because he clearly didn't want to write 5+ books of a continuous story and made shit up as he went along. By the end he pulls the desperate move of every hack fantasy writer who runs out of ideas: "sooo... now this character travels to another world! Eehhhh and now to a modern world! It's shitty and polluted! And now... to King Arthur's world!". That is seriously a major plot point in the last two books. The original Witcher short stories collections are probably the best. I imagine it loses some of the charm in translation too.

Sapkowski's Hussite Trilogy is superior to the Witcher saga, so I'd recommend that, but I don't know how good the translations are.

As for the game: I didn't even realize they were making another Witcher game, looks like it's going to be an even bigger shitshow than the Cyberpunk thing, but the last CDP game I've played was Witcher 2 (which was slightly above average at best), so I can't say I care either way

Learn your lesson and don't get attached to names - be it studios or franchises - and you'll always be happy like I am. They can't undo the good games we have already, let the scavengers have the corpse and move it along, the meat is poison anyways. Someone with talent will surface and make a new world for us to enjoy for a while before the cancer takes it as well. Just gotta keep moving.

Are the short stories part of the universe? Is there a reading order?

yes. no.

Yes and yes.

first you should read the stories from The Last Wish collection. Then from Sword of Destiny collection. And then it is time for the main 5 novel series, starting with Blood of Elves and ending with Lady of the Lake.

Yea, I've moved on 1/3 into Twicher2 when I've seen it was not half as good as Twitcher.

You've seen the reveal trailer for The Witcher IV... Now immerse yourself in its music accompanying Ciri during her quest in the village of Stromford!

The official Cinematic Reveal Trailer soundtrack, No Gods, Only Monsters, was composed and produced by P.T Adamczyk, with lyrics written by Borys Pugacz-Muraszkiewicz.

 

[Ryzer]

The entire arc " There are no gods, only monsters = men being one of them" is so cringe and misandric.

The books suffer from the same issue as George R.R Martin's work - they should have ended after a specific point rather than ramble on endlessly.

Worse yet, the publishing industry is brutal - there's a lot of pressure to try and force rewrites in order to make every setting more 'diverse' which is why so many fantasy works suddenly pivot towards focusing on women. Even the so called 'based' anime industry is prone to the same problem on that front, usually with the added weirdness of hyper focusing on romances between characters even when there's paper thin justification for such.

A story for you, some years ago in Spain a supposedly female writer by the pseudonym of Carmen Mola (Carmen is a legit Spanish name for a woman while Mola is not. It'd translate as "cool", "Carmen Mola = Carmen is cool") entered the literary scene. This female writer wrote several thrillers and eventually won the Premio Planeta, a literary prize, that the contest for such a prize is rigged is an open secret but that is neither here nor there. The important thing is that when it was the moment for "Carmen Mola" to claim her prize it wasn't a woman who appeared but three men. These three men were writers for TV and the real authors, all those years behind a female pseudonym were a publicity stunt. They pretended to be a woman to sell more books since thrillers are more widely read by women and, in turn, those women are more inclined to read thrillers if the name on the cover is of a female writer. Of course, if before they sold more novels by pretending to be a woman now that they were revealed to be three men they sold more books thanks to the controversy. A brilliant, if cynical, strategy.

The added delicious irony is that many a bookstore and feminist organization had to backpedal after the reveal, whereas previously they were celebrating Carmen Mola as the new great female Spanish writer. Now they claimed that they didn't like the books, that they didn't support them, or, more pathetically, that they knew all along (a claim that only few booktubers can make).

It's all a big joke.

Polish nationalists can't do shit. Literally. If you gave them two iron balls they'd lose one and break the other.

Galadriel?

1937 references The Hobbit. LotR came out in the 1950s.

Yeah, I really can't recall any females at all in The Hobbit. There's probably a few female hobbits (I'm pretty sure some are referenced but I don't recall if they appear), and I think there might be a Queen to the King of Mirkwood?
