I still don't get why Ciri and Yennefer weren't in the first 2 games
First off, I LOVE the games, including witcher 1 and 2 and I read all the books and am reading them again. But I keep asking myself, why weren't Ciri and Yennefer in the first 2 games? If you read the books, it becomes apparent how crucial yennefer and especially Ciri are to the plot. The witcher books, IMO, eventually become entirely about Ciri, even Geralt's character becomes entirely about finding her. I still don't understand why at least Ciri wasn't in the first 2 games.
It isn't a huge deal, since the first 2 games are pretty awesome (i love w2 actually) and its clear the first 2 games are basically cdpr's own plotline in telling w/e story or short stories they wanted to. I mean they basically killed off all the leaders of the north in one game, which im sure the witcher author would have a fit over. The third game is basically cdpr continuing where the novels left off in a non-cannon way to finish off the plot. I feel ciri and yen were introduced pretty damn well in a game this big, but I still think they should have been in the first 2 games; it would have helped flesh out their characters more being in all 3 games.
Has CDPR ever commented on why ciri/yennefer weren't in the first two games?
