Or maybe because W3 is a game about Geralt searching for Yennefer and Ciri.
Can't agree with that. Finding Yennefer was the first few hours of the game, not the basis of the entire game.
Or maybe because W3 is a game about Geralt searching for Yennefer and Ciri.
Ohh well, maybe because Triss wasn't missing this whole 3 games? Or maybe because W3 is a game about Geralt searching for Yennefer and Ciri. Everyone knows that he was looking for Yennefer so it's logical that he is speaking about her. And Triss... she is always around in the world nothing happened to her to be worried about. Yes Triss can be you love interest but the game itself isn't about Triss and Geralt. It's about search for Yennefer and Ciri. I think many of you misunderstand devs or were not listening to them before the game came up. Not once they have said this game is about search for Yennefer and Ciri. This game is more close to books than previous 2 and I like it. I understand why Triss is on the second role. But for those of you who haven't read the books or are too obsess about Triss it could be painful to see her only few times. But it's a true story of Geralt. Maybe it's not your Geralt or not what you wanted to see but again it more close to the books. Should they make it like this I don't know. Can they make more Triss content - yes. But they didn't make it and I accept their decision. Yes as Yennefer fan and books reader it's easy for me. But CD Red have right to make game they want and they made very good game with a lot of content.

Well, let me remind you something regardless W2 ending. Tell me please what happened to Geralt and Triss in the end of the W2? Is there difference between romanced path with Triss and not romanced? Now tell me why you expect something between them at the start of the W3?
After they meet at Novigrad you have a choice what to do. I don't see how it's not RPG. You want the same conversation for Triss. But why? Triss isn't Yennefer and should have different approach. It's only my thoughts. You think it should be the same as with Yennefer, but the point of this? You would have 2 woman with only difference in hair color and the same options in the game. That's strange don't you find?
True story of Geralt. Well, for me it's about him and Ciri and Yennefer. And game is closer for this path maybe friendly. But this doesn't mean you don't have choice. You can still be with Triss. But for me and perhaps devs it's not how they see it. You think they have no right for this? You think they should create game without soul with equal choices? I don't know. It hard for me to say something but I definitely can see devs hand in this story. For me it's not bad because I have similar point of view. For Triss fans it must be not that good. But game is about tough choices and sometime you can't get what you want no matter how you try. You can't save children and wife of Red Baron no matter what you do. I'm trying to say that this game is about Geralt Yennefer and Ciri. But you can be with Triss and maybe devs think that it shouldn't be the same as with Yennefer. Have they right to do this?

I would agree if I had the feelings that the handling of Triss in Act 3 was a "design choice". But it's not. As for many things in Act 3, it's clearly about not having enough time/ressources to make things right. Triss isn't the only issue concerned.
If how the Triss romance is handled was a designed choice by the devs, then the romance would be at the same level for all the game. But it's not the case. You have a first part that is incredibly managed, well written. And then a drop off.
Your argument seems to consider that they wanted to do this that way, but I'm pretty sure that hey didn't, that they had to do it that way because of production reasons. Not enought time, not enough ressources.
maybe because W3 is a game about Geralt searching for Yennefer and Ciri.
Agree with this completely, and I agree with everything else.
I was perfectly fine with everything up until I got to Kaer Morhen with Uma and Triss wasn't there.
I was fine with Triss taking a back seat whilst Geralt and Yen were in Skellige searching for Ciri, they are Ciri's "parents" after all.
Loved everything in Novigrad and Skellige, then after that, with the exception of the fountain scene, it just falls flat.....nothing.
At the very least there should have been another love scene with Geralt and Triss, maybe on the boat in Skellige when looking for the Sunstone.
And the option to speak to her and Yen and explain things "I will always Love Yen, she is in mine and Ciri's hearts, but Triss is who I want to be with etc" to clear things up for both women too.

Yeah Yen spent the game bitching about Geralt being with Triss, and never once mentioned to Triss, wtf is that about.
Also why does Ciri have no comment on Geralts choice of woman???
What I would have loved to have been able to do is this:
After the Djinn mission, Geralt says he doesnt want to be with Yen anymore, and he is in love with Triss.
Yen is bitter towards Triss (understandable) and distraught that Geralt's love for her was due to a spell.
In an argument, Yen comments that his love was fake in front of Geralt and Triss and Geralt shouts "The spell didn't change a damned thing, I still love you now more than I ever did." and then proceeds to confess that he used the spell being broken as an excuse to end it because whilst he still loves her, he loves Triss too, and she is who he wants to be with.
Damn it, I want to write a (decent) Witcher TV series!!
Would have loved that, they were my thoughts exaclty. I don't actually hate Yen, I like the way she is cold and sarcastic is its refreshing, its just that like you said, I like Triss more.
ajiehb;1788473[B said:]So... how about W2 ending? No one want's to talk about it. I wonder why... why you think devs made it so that Geralt and Triss went different ways.[/B] Even if you choose her as your love interest. You should start question yourself way before W3 game.
You are saying Triss should have as much content as Yennefer. Why? It's two differnet characters. Only because she can be Geralt love interest? Not enough. CD Red are telling story and some characters have more time in this story than others. Basicly the story is written by devs and you can't change much in it. Some detail yes but you can't stop Yennefer from using Uroboros mask or choose Triss to help you find Sunstone and etc. It was their choice to make Yennefer steal mask, cure Uma not because she is Geralt love. It's part of the story. If you don't romance her she still would do all this. So I don't see how you could put Triss here. Yennefer has 2 love scenes and Triss also has 2. But Yennefer has more story content and not because she is love ineterst. That it.
You want to see more Triss action because you like her. But I think you must respect devs decision to tell the story they want.

I'd expect since they've now moved into doing paid for expansions for them to do new VA recordings. Hence why i'm pining more of my hopes on extra expansion content for Triss meaning them getting her VA back.
