ROFL I guess these dudes want to live a power fantasy through Geralt instead of accepting the natural next step; since they are following the Witcher Books for the most part, Ciri was bound to be the lead character. I feel the Witcher 4 will be an excellent game, there's interesting ground to cover with Ciri. The only bad thing will be if there is no first person mode, as I tend to avoid games with women as leads...I like to look at men from behind, not ladies. I hope the art team chose a design that doesn't try to make her into a thirst trap (as that low-key makes me not want to play games with female leads).

I have a friend that's the same. She refuses ro play witcher 3 because you cant pick a female character.
I think it's ridiculous.

I'm the exact opposite, but nothing wrong with your preference.

I thought this was going to say something about looking inward or something. Like being inspired to be the best self you can.
That's on me.

Good to know the VA isn't a dickhead chud here. I'm not aware of him beyond this, but that's at least a small win in my book.
honestly though, calling it woke makes me want to check it now...so 🤷. I am not sure woke is the insult its intended to be.
i love woke, keep it coming
How is "woke" an insult now? What am I supposed be? Asleep?
conservatives use it to shut down arguements, of things that they are potentially wrong about, which includes everything they dont like. but mostly refers to traditional male and female roles(no lgbtq+)
