Hi, found this thread after completing the game choosing the Triss romance option.
It was kind of a let down coming from the two previous games where she was obviously Geralt's main love interest. I understand this was Yennefer's first appearance in the games and given their history she needed to play a big part in the game but having your love interest choice absent for most the game and even worse not being able to interact with her when you are able to was really a bad game design choice. Was pretty bummed given this is the last game in the series.
Hello
@allen3 welcome to the community. Don't forget to vote!
I will respond piece-by-piece. To your first point, just like you, none of us disliked Yen and none of us wanted less of her. We just want our choice of going with Triss to be meaningful and fulfilling. I think we were all disappointed with her disappearance after the lighthouse and the overall lack of interaction during/after Kaer Morhen.
I too am bummed that this is potentially her last hurrah.
I really think they should consider some kind of DLC to really work on the interactions for the romance part of the game for Geralt, Yen, and Triss. I don't mean more sex scenes, I mean more interaction.
1000 times agreed. A DLC like Mass Effect's Citadel or one with just a stronger focus on personal relationships with all major characters.
I really like einsteins examples in this topic thread. Bring closure to their story to make us all feel good with how this series ends for them.
Why thank you.
Just something I've been thinking about doing for the last couple of days. Thought I'd give it a shot - see what you guys thought.
I have another one I am working on now. Geralt/Triss at the funeral after Kaer Morhen. I'll post it when I finish.
Why settle for being the best RPG with a mediocre romance when you could surpass the others in this regard too.
I said something to this effect a lot earlier. A lot more words though, lol. I like the way you summed it up here though. It could have been the best RPG with the best romances. They consistently shot for the moon when designed this game. With this aspect though they just didn't. It truly sucks.
Normally I don't post about things in games that bug me, I guess that shows how good the characters and this game world connected with me. Good job CDPR.
Same here. I've only ever joined maybe 3 or 4 other forums in my life. It's been a while. Couldn't sit idly by though while they let Triss go out with a fizzle. :X
