There we go, admitting that you are wrong. Was that so hard?

Now this is what we call projection. Just accept reality that your DEI-focused ESG-trash peddler is indeed shit and gay. They're proud about it and you should be too!

You are wasting your time. Harthwain is a flesh robot like Roguey.

 

[Bulo]

I wonder what happened to this guy

switch engine = character model ages 10 years?

what a bozo.

Yes, Unreal is shit.

 

[Frozen]

Lmao holy hell Geralt's married life in the big city seems like such a shitty deal.

Sure, i get it, he has a shitty job and business isn't what it used to be, but still, he got to travel around, meet interesting people, and bang the occasional willing wench what more did he need?

This whole thing with Yennefer just screams of Andrzej Sapkowski projecting his own problems into his writing.

Geralt is under the spell of a Jin. He lost his chad mojo.

Why he did it is a question. It's just hidden Sapkowski cuckoldry coming out.

So they're turning The Witcher into some sort of The Skywalker or The Doctor Who type shit, huh. The next The Witcher after IV is gonna be black, 100%. Anyone can be The Witcher!

I already thought Geralt came across as a cuck in Witcher 3, but you're saying the books are even worse?

He's a lot worse in the book. Basically a male feminist but he'll be manipulated by women, put in harm's way by them, betrayed by them and he still comes crawling back for more.

The games are actually a much more flattering portrayal of the character.

These news creates wonderful opportunities for Witcher 4. Using the book as excuse, feminist writers can now humiliate Geralt as much as they want, and fanbois can't say anything about it.

Wilds will easily outsell The Witcher 4 and both are set to release early this very year whereas the latter isn't due to release for some time and by the time it does come out, there will be even less patience for compromised slop.

This is kind of the core problem for Witcher 4. If it was releasing in a year its success(however limited) would be guaranteed but its not and depending on how long it takes it to release that guarantee might easily shrink to nothing. I would personally not expect anything before 2026 at best(2028 realistically). If they were close enough to launch this year they would have shown it or at least talked about it extensively. The lack of material to showcase is just proof that its either a shit show or very very early in development.

Two to three years is plenty for people to grow sour on the whole girlboss thing. They already kind of did and I do not see anyone really going back to "we need more girls in gaming" mindset any time soon. Hell, 2 years ago I would not have guesses Ubisoft could get so much shit for an AC game, let alone be in financial trouble. At this points its entirely possible that by the time they will be releasing the game the climate will shift so much that no amount of good will from Witcher 3 or Cyberpunk(which is really just copium from people who got scammed into buying it early) will save the game.

You are both coping hard. This trailer alone has 13 milion views combining IGN channel and the official channel, in a month. The biggest CGI trailer for The Witcher 3, A Night to Remember, has 17 milion views after almost 10 years. The Witcher 3 E3 trailer has 4.5 milion views.

This game is not gonna fail even if it turns out to be shit, it doesn't matter what a couple of retards on Twitter and Youtube, who never even played a single game of the previosu trilogy, say. CDPR has not have yet accumulated a 10 years of failures like Bioware did.

 

[Thalstarion]

I didn't say it was going to fail, just that it likely isn't going to reach the same lofty heights as the previous entry. Many men just aren't interested in playing as angry looking women and they prefer playing as a male protagonist. That is reflected in many games with a character creator as the most common pick is almost always some sort of variant of the male human fighter.

You could make the argument that a female protagonist alone isn't particularly damning and you would be correct, yet the company launched their previous game - Cyberpunk 2077 - in such an abysmal state that many copies were refunded.

In addition to that, the company has not only lost many key developers responsible for the better games in the series, those that remain are actively sneering in feigned disgust at stuff like the romance cards and seeking to remove them from the remake of the original Witcher game.

Finally, the companies vocal and aggressive commitment to DEI/ESG backfired significantly and the company is ridiculed as a result.

Pattern recognition suggests that they will fill the next game with as much nonsense that they feel they can get away with which will annoy a portion of those who go out of their way to purchase it even with all the red flags and that will further radicalise more gamers against the company.

There's a cultural shift taking place and the pendulum is swinging back. Some companies are simply slower on the uptake than others, or willing to burn everything down rather than change course.

He appears to be.

The fact Yennefer is more powerful than he is makes it even worse. Not that there's any chance he would ever use violence but even that aspect of the normal dynamic between a man and a woman is gone. And what makes it worse is that Yennefer is a throughly unpleasant individual so to see him just take her vitriol and bite his tongue when a retort would be apprioriate for fear of getting incinerated is just exasperating. He literally can't put this woman in her place even if he wanted to.

BTW, the last story introduced the idea that witchers can't have feelings which seems a bit far fetched as Geralt has given zero indications that was ever the case. It also puts into question his obsession with her.

My assumption is that the reason he is so attracted to her is that he sees himself in her. Geralt's big thing is that he is an outcast, a pariah, equally at odds with the world as the world is with him. Yennefer is exceedingly beautiful now because her trainers made her so with magic but she was also an outcast once, and his heightened witcher senses can actually pick up some lingering flaws underneath all the cosmetic enchancements so i think the idea is that he feels a degree of kinship with her. He is a mutant and pariah, she is resentful and bitter, so he thinks they are essentially made for one another, even if in reality they have almost nothing in common aside for being freaks.

ai generated post, what does cyberpunk's undercooked release in previous gen have to do with male/female protagonist lol

Pattern recognition isn't your strong suit, huh? Or following along with the logic presented in a post longer than a sentence.

The company is compromised and many of the remaining developers are effete cucks and autogynephiles which might be why you're so eager to defend them, come to think of it.

Cyberpunk's initial launch was plagued with bugs, performance issues, broken promises/cut content, outright lies during the marketing phase and the social media lead being fired for cracking a joke. It isn't the same company responsible for the previous entry in the Witcher series.

It all ties together.

To put it in more simple terms for you, though, the intention of my previous post was to list various reasons as to why the upcoming game is encountering controversy.

That's just stuff people say about Witchers. And if i correctly remember that bit of Shard of Ice, Geralt himself bringing it up was just his way to avoid the confrontation. With Yennefer quickly calling him out on it besides, since the whole point of that short story is Yennefer trying - by being a bitch - to force a confrontation before Geralt (whom i believe was already getting bored and antsy by the beginning of that) could run off (like it's implied he did before the dragon one).

 

[Gerrard]

This whole thing with Yennefer just screams of Andrzej Sapkowski projecting his own problems into his writing.

You calling everything you read author's projection just screams being a dimwit. Literally like a leftoid, "Everything is a projection of the author no piece of fiction can be just fiction!".
"The character makes a disparaging comment towards homosexuals, that must mean the author is homophobic and also secretly gay at the same time!"

With games like: Kingdom Come 2, Alkahest, Dawnwalker, Archolos 2.0, Monomyth, Of Ash and Steel, ExeKiller etc, I couldn't give less of a fuck about Witcherella and CD Projekt Rekt. CD stands for cross dressing. If at least 1-2 out of 7 games I've mentioned is good, why the fuck should I give 1oz of fuck what Warsaw dildo riders & soy drinkers do with, as far as I'm concerned, finished story

What if W4 has a quest that allows Ciri to transition, so it wont be about cross dressing but full on magical gender transitioning

Would that make you happy and will you play W4 then, because Im sure there will be a mod released that allows that

 

[Modron]

Feminists hate the W1 sexcards with passion.

That's just because they know they are inferior to LundB's cards.

 

[sosmoflux]

So when Bitcher 4 underperforms, what's it gonna be?

• DLC/Expansion where you play as Geralt
• Announce Witcher 5 super quickly where Geralt returns
