Does anyone think Geralt started to become less stoic and emotionless in this game than the previous two?even in the voice acting he seemed far more emotive than usual.
There's this thing about Witchers not being able to show emotion but he seemed to have seriously happy moments with Ciri and at points ( when he first found Ciri) he seemed quite expressive somehow more than he's been in the other games. I wondered if it was him started to adapt to showing emotion and sympathy, etc, or if he's emulating if because he thinks that's the right response.
He also seemed far better with children this time around (gentler and far more patient). He seemed to have evolved a bit. I liked it. It made his happy ending a bit easier to buy haha.

‘Don’t shout, Yen, don’t be aggressive. And don’t drag up that story from Vengerberg, we swore not to go back to it, after all. I don’t bear a grudge against you, Yen, I’m not reproaching you, am I? I know you can’t be judged by ordinary standards. And the fact that I’m saddened . . . the fact that I know I’m losing you . . . is cellular memory. The atavistic remnants of feelings in a mutant purged of emotion—’
‘I can’t stand it when you talk like that!’ she exploded. ‘I can’t bear it when you use that word. Don’t ever use it again in my presence. Never!’
‘Does it change the fact? After all, I am a mutant.’
‘There is no fact. Don’t utter that word in front of me.’
Geralt is able to emote
In W1 and W2 he had amnesia, and had excuses for some things he do but now his memory is returned, what Geralt of Rivia would never do, would he after everything bring Ciri to Emhyr.
I agree, recovered his memory but still do dumb things, lying that emhyr promised him not to force Ciri on anything in that sceneGeralt would never take Ciri to Emhyr
Geralt is able to emote, which is why he is so unique among Witchers ~ Possibly due to the fact that Geralt is the sole survivor of further experimentation ~ I am assuming the Amnesia had a toll on this part of his personality which is why he suddenly becomes more lively - Also in 3, unlike 2, he has all of his memories back and the loves of his life, back in his life, which is why is snaps out of being all broody like he was in the time leading up to his meeting with Yennefer.
In the books he has moody turns, times of true joy and times of pure anger and hate - I am assuming these emotions are why Geralt gets involved in things that are not 'Witchers business' as he has a degree of humanity that the other Witchers simply lack ~ Which is super depressing for the other Witchers now that I think about it ~
But yeah ~ Normal Witchers are stripped of emotion - Geralt uses that as his excuse to not get involved in certain things, but he defiantly has emotions and humanity.
“It goes down well,” he said, swallowing the piece of animal fat. “Eat the cheese. And an apple. Just one.”
“Why just one?”
“Don't fidget. Eat both.”
“Geralt?”
“Hum?”
“Thank you.”
“It's nothing. Eat heartily.”
“No... not for this. For this too, but... You saved my life before, from the centipede... Brr... I almost died of fear...”
“There are many things that can kill you that way,” he confirmed seriously. There are many things that can kill you in even more horrible and tragic ways, he thought. “You can thank Braenn.”
“Who is she?”
“A dryad.”
“An evil fairy of the forest?”
“Yes.”
“They're the ones that we... They steal children! She abducted us? Except you're not small. Why does she speak so strangely?”
“She speaks as she speaks, it's not important. The important thing is how she shoots. Don't forget to thank her when we stop.”
“I will not forget,” she replied, sniffling.
“Don't squirm, princess, future wife of the prince of Verden.”
“I will never be the wife of some prince,” she grumbled.
“Well, well, you won't marry anyone. You will become a hamster and take refuge in a burrow.”
“That's not true! You don't know anything at all!”
“Don't scream in my ear. Don't forget about my belt.”
“I will not be the wife of any prince. I will be...”
“Yes? What?”
“It's a secret.”
“Ah! A secret. Great.” He lifted his head. “What's going on, Braenn?”
The dryad had stopped.
She shrugged, looking at the sky.
“I am breaking,” she replied sadly. “All because of what you picked up. Here we make camp: it's vespers.”
How many people would still be alive if Geralt just let the monster kill her?
RIP Iola the second and Milo Vanderbeck. Never forget. Never forgive.
The war between Nilfgaard and the Norh would have been happened no matter what imo. All of them would have died no matter what, sooner or later.
