they all felt like they were written by incels who have never met or conversed with an actual real woman. they were shallow game of thrones/fantasy tropes and felt like walking talking cliches. i literally cringed through every interaction...

And this also explains why they've "grown" her into a plastic, lip-plumped, reality-TV-star banshee. The character model looks awful.

And if I'm honest the books are similar. I like them, but all the women are super sexy super hot and they exist for Geralt to have sex with

I get this somewhat but including ciri? I feel like there was none of that with her character. What about her struck you as that?

she was basically wesley crusher, without the character growth.... she was a plot device, not a character.

These types of comments ignore the fact that Geralt is written in the exact same way.

The "romance" dialog options tend to be god awful.
