Geralts story is done, which is a shame kinda. I really liked him even though he wasn't the most emotional. Another game would be great, playing as Ciri or Yen or Triss I don't know. Lambert or Eskel?
Omg Lambert...Geralts story is done, which is a shame kinda. I really liked him even though he wasn't the most emotional. Another game would be great, playing as Ciri or Yen or Triss I don't know. Lambert or Eskel?
Why is it milking? Yea, the stories about Geralt and Shepard are over, but their worlds are big. I guess no one want to "resurrect" Gerald for Witcher 4, but just throw away such a nice universe? Nope, I want my Zerrikanian and golden dragons.
I want to play as a brand new character. I love the Witcher universe, but the lore from the novels makes it more of a story-driven game and less of a roleplaying game. The protagonist of an RPG shouldn't have like 7 novels worth of backstory and established lore and baggage. RPG protagonists should be blank slates so that players can roleplay how they choose. This is why Geralt having amnesia was so important in TW1 and 2, because it removed the baggage from the novels so the player could roleplay Geralt however they wanted.
I would love to see Ciri, but she would come with her own novels worth of baggage. I wouldn't be opposed to a Ciri game, but again, it would be more of a story-driven action/adventure game than a roleplaying game. I say, I want a brand new RPG in The Witcher universe with a brand new Witcher protagonist. Give us a blank slate and a fresh start into the world of The Witcher. By all means, keep the big important NPCs, but let the protagonist be a new character who doesn't have a bunch of established lore and baggage.
A Witcher game without Geralt? Hell no
I really don't think its needed but its clear many fans want more
But I don't get it why always milk things even though the story is over?
Just like with Mass Effect (off topic), there is no need for a Mass Effect 4
At least this isn't Ubi level of milking (what they did to the AC series..damm)
My response to that?
I HATE Blank Slate characters so very very much.
Can we keep the Witcher free of them?
Even if there's a new Witcher, I'd like them to have a completely new personality free from the whole "audience projection thing."

eh, I also think there's plenty of room for more Geralt.
Geralt is the Man with No Name. His story never ends.
