Determination is in Ciri's expression, on the second image, even though a bit too Hollywoodishly exaggerated. On the Yennefer's image, she looks like scared puppy indeed.
I'm sure she IS the narcissistic nasty manipulator bitch in the game, as described in the books. She looks like a nice lady but DAYUM she about to get the bitch mode ON.
opo: Poor Geralt I'm reading The Last Wish again, and when Geralt enters the inn to meet Renfri, one of the men in her gang describes Geralt as "Albino, mutant, freak of nature." So I guess those who requested to make him Geralt more pale have their foundation in the books. At least a part of them.
Hmm I don't see the scared cute puppy face. Also, that's not how she looks in-game, that's a cut scene.
I read the books recently and I'm pretty sure he only lost hair color pigmentation tho I'm not an expert maybe it effects the skin also.
Also I don't recall anyone saying anything about Geralt's so called disfigured face. If he had so hideous face why all these women fall for him? or when he was in a tavern why he always had to ignore the attention of the ladies around? No one says he's devilishly handsome but no one says the opposite either. When I was reading the books my imagined Geralt's face was nearest to the one in wild hunt rather than what he looked like in the first 2 games. And there is no "real" face of him to base our ideas so we'll comply with whatever CDPR serves us, if anyone won't like him, I'm sure first mods for the game will be about modifying characters' faces after the nude mods lol.
"Women prefer ugly men to groomed dandies. Care for a romp?"
There are faces that are variously ugly, disfigured, lived-in, and what toy collectors call "played with, hard". If Bernard Loredo's on one end of that scale, Geralt's on the other end. And no woman worth having would kick him out of bed for it.
I realize it's just one quote, from a thug who wanted to rile Geralt up, so I'm taking it with a grain of salt. Maybe I'll come across a different description of him in upcoming books, but so far, 150 pages in, it's the only reference to Geralt's skin and it gives reason to believe that he's pale.
I'm not sure where you got the "disfigured" part, though. That's not the impression I received from that quote.
It was not to you specifically, it was mentioned in this thread recently.
For Geralt, my point is, based on the books, he's not ugly nor he's too handsome. Now in my opinion in the first 2 games' concepts/artworks/promo shots he looked like what I had in mind while I was reading the books but in the games' renders he was downright ugly. I'm not saying he looks perfect now in wild hunt: He looks more like what I have in my mind but now he lacks a bit of charismatic features yes but I'd rather have this than those in the first two games.
If he actually looked like this in the first 2 games' renders...
...then I'd be complaining about the new Geralt also, but he didn't.

The more footage I see of Vesemir, the more I think how changing his appearance was a bad idea. The Witcher 1 look of Vesemir incorporated strength, wisdom, mastery and badassery. So far in TW3 he doesn't look nearly as cool. Any chance you'll redo Vesemir?
We havent seen him in action yet, too early to judge imho.
Why did they do it with Geralt's body?
This is awful. His body resembles a picture of a sweet boy from women's magazine cover. If in The Witcher 1-2 he looked normal, here he got turned into a tipical sex-symbol!

I like his body from the witcher 2, the third one looks like a Calvin Klein commercial, too sexy to be a monster hunter.

Sam Winchester disapproves...
Jokes aside, seems all those sword swings paid out for Geralt
And he probably didn't have the chance to drink enough Mahakaman mead for a while, hence the thinner waist.Maybe because in the TW2 screenshot, he's been in a dungeon for three days, and in the TW3 screenshot, he's just had a bath.
He looks the same at the start of Witcher 2 (i would even say he has the exact same scars/injuries), when he wakes up in that camp, and 3 days are not really enough time to lose enough muscle mass anyway.
The biggest difference is his wider upper body, mostly the shoulders. He has almost the perfect V-body, a typically beauty ideal for men, just like the hourglass figure for women.

Have a look on his body ...he looks just as an Abercombie&Fitch model
