If you ignore the fact that she has been like that since she was 11... annoyed whenever she was ordered to do something, angry when people decided about her life without her voice in it, irrate when something didnt go her way. How did she develope? And how is it not being a wild card when you charge off into a battle that is fought to save YOU in which everyone puts their life on the line to save YOU, yet you blissfully ignore it and charge in anyway running the risk of getting killed and basically killing everyone with you?
And tbh. how on earth has psychology of sorceresses and what not anything to do with Ciri dressing like a tramp and even Ves and elven warriors looking like strippers? I'm a guy and I don't need to go into details about the conotation this carries... it's eye candy so the nerds can have a cyber wank.
I mention it on other video game forums. The Witcher occupies a WEIRD place in feminism, Anita Saarkesian's rebuttal aside in that it's a game series which is infamous for the fact you get to bang a lot of chicks and nudity while ALSO having more female characters who talk to each other, serve in intricate roles, and play a vital role in the storyline than any other major A-List game save Dragon Age. Tomb Raider is the biggest female-driven franchise there is and it had three female characters in its last game.
In the ENTIRE game.
Witcher 3?
FOUR major Female characters to Geralt and Dandelion and Zoltan's three.
FIVE counting Priscilla.
How many female characters with speaking roles and adventure plots? At least over forty at last count. Not counting the important role of the Lodge in the story.
It is a MAJORLY female dominated work and all the better for it. It's just that it also panders to the fanboys. Mostly, though, I consider it's attitude to sex and sexuality to be HEALTHY as people should not be happy about impalings versus consensual sex.
