    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    You can't rejoin the math competition lets say a year later or something? That seems harsh for a math competition. Yes ok with the court case. But that also means that in the long run when things are not yet proven to be possible or impossible, impossible is still a possible outcome for all...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    I think you and I got off on the wrong foot. This might also be because I'm quite passionate about this subject and yes, that sometimes leads me to be quite headstrong. Like I said to Average: I don't even know if devs actually follow these forums, but it's as close as I can get to talk about...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well yes, but to be honest if this game is supposed to come out in 2025 or by the end of it, it is kind of rushed. If i'm not completely wrong, pre production probably started around 2021, but full production just started. for a full production of a game of this scale it feels really fast. So I...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    You know, I don't want to be contraproductive and averse all the time. We can just agree to disagree. And yes, I do agree descriptions in the books are too vague to fully support either side of the argument. And I agree also that I think Sapowski probably just wanted to make some adventure...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    you are taking it out of context. It is obviously he ment Geralt to care about this girl, otherwise he wouldn't make him chase her allover the world. you are describing things that were described, so it's a poor comparison. Same thing with Vesemir, if he is coming from a tradition of witcher...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    No sorry, but that's really not how it works though.... If something is not yet proven to be possible, especially in this case, the possibility of impossible is still on the books. You guys seem to be convinced it' the other way around, without asking the simple question: why hasn't it been...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well on this we agree, be it from different perspectives. Triss should have been very worried if she thought the witchers would try to mutate Ciri. Dont agree with this definity. Once they are witchers they are witchers, and considered being on the other side. Like you yourself said before...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    And this is where the break comes: I don't consider CDPR lore as the core lore. For me, it is the book lore that is the core lore. The way I accept CDPR adaptations is the same way if you want adapt a book into a movie or into a tv series. You have to make some adaptatations because you simply...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    I feel I'm starting to write a book myself replying to all these answers lol... But anyways, here it goes. Yes indeed I meant Triss, was indeed getting lost in my answer a bit. the manipulator part would then be of Triss towards Geralt. In the books she really isn't always that honest towards...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    So everybody who is just enthousiastic about a subject becomes an expert or can be seen as an equal to it in terms of value of opinion? As far as from her description on how the process works, she 's also not very detailed about it. she still cant really list specific herbs or something she just...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Why not? since witcher making wasn't done anymore in her time, she most likely had a lot else on her plate than to focus on that. And she has never done it. So what would make her a expert on the matter overall? There is nothing to prove that she is. And let's not forget, she still is HAPPY that...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    all you are describing here is Triss' internal thought processes. And even she seems to be very happy they didn't try to pass her on the trials. The other parts are just Ciri fantasising about being a Witcher. If i'm also remembering well, triss herself is one of the youngest additions to the...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    yes there are in the books. The blood of elves. The account of the sorceress states that the male survives. If there were only males present in that group, they wouldn't need to specify "the male". It is in the books. And then Alzur would have been right to do so. Why continue working on the...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well we can agree on one thing here: Ciri has indeed always been a sheltered child and always had the best people looking after. However the word "gratitude" isn't in her vocabulary very much as she still only wants her will and her will to happen only. In Witcher 3 I have always found her...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well fine, but that is just her opinion then. One of the very many. And that is still very vague and extremely open. Besides: why should everything be around her choice only? It's not like Geralt was given that much agency in his games either. I would say it's a pretty narcissistic attitude of...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    The line Geralt says is also an optional choice you can pick. The other one seems to lead more to acceptance of her fate and learning to live with it. Not saying that the option to chose "you are free to choose" is the worse one of the two but it is there as well. So this is more the outcome of...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    You forget she can also become an empress. Which was the other good ending. And even in the monster hunting ending she is not a full witcher yet. And that is also a very open ending and very much up to interpretation. For me, it simply ment she stayed in very close contact with Geralt and...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well I just heard the majority of the witcher 3 crew left and went over to rebel wolves. In life we don't always get to chose and get what we want. We just have to deal with whatever fate has in store for us and get on with our lives. that is a brutal reality we all have to face. And should be...

    Convince me that Ciri is a good choice.

    Well yes, but she doesn't fit to be a witcher. It's destroying the arch she was setup with in the books and frankly, also in the previous games. Even when you got the monster hunting ending. There was this magnificent arc setup for her to be a child of prophecy and a magical proginy. Making her...

    How do you think they 'level up' Ciri?

    Ok this i can agree with. When you look at all the discussions, people on all sides of the debate or spectrum definitly are quote mining really hard. And mostly it comes from searching from either synopsises from the books than having fully read them. Well anyway I'm still convinced it would...
