I don't know. Why do you keep claming to know Ciri's long-term emotional state based on nothing more than your own biased view of the Witcher life? A life you claim Ciri can't even fully participate in due to not being a "real" Witcher?
You're still doing it. Did you not understand what I was referring to? Here's the simplified version: you are lying and exagerating the position of another person for the sole reason of making him look like a fool. I didn't even allude to her long term emotional state, nor I have even said she "can't even fully partecipate in" a witcher's life.
Again, you're just making yourself look biased. For no reason other than defend your beloved Witcher ending I guess?
I'm referring to how you are making stuff up that is not supported in the epilogue because it supports your bias. You claim Ciri "has" to be lonely and miserable when Geralt, Eskel, and Vesemir all seem content with their line of work.
I'm not making anything up. It is you who are setting up my argument in a way it was never meant to be.
I never said she has to be miserable. I meant lonely and alone compared to being on the path together with Geralt (as some people think) or living a stable, normal, stationary life, with a family even.
Geralt found both Yen and Triss while doing his job, and he found plenty of other friends out on the Path.
I wouldn't qualify Geralt's life as happy, or cheerful or wish it on anyone personally. Also he seems to be the exception rather than the rule.
And that's your best outcome more or less. All the other witchers except the 3 you mentioned seem to be miserable.
And your knowledge of how Ciri feels long-term in her role is based on...?
I never talked about her long term feelings. It is you who are assuming they have to be positive, based on the 20 seconds of (apparently) positive ones shown in the epilogue. Even if the two things were equal (and they are not, because you're the one inserting details who aren't there) poof, they're equally as unproveable at best.
So I don't see on what basis:
a) you act as if your interpretation/prediction is dogmatic
b) react so aggressively against any dissenting voice
eskel seems content. Vesemir does.
And do they spend the overwhelming majority of time (or used to) alone or not? How do you even know how do they feel? And does their mutation inhibiting (some) feeling capacity have any impact on their apparent outward emotional state (unlike quite emotional Ciri)?
Blergh.
Witchers of the Wolf School still winter together, and I see no reason Ciri wouldn't be welcomed for that,
No they don't. Vezemir is dead, Lambert and Eskel don't want to set foot at KM ever again as per dialogue. Lambert also goes away with Keira in one ending.
She can visit Yen, Geralt, and Triss whenever she wants.
Ok? I can visit my family too quite often, that doesn't mean I don't spend the majority of time away from them. I would imagine it'd been even more true if I were to be traveling around the world most of the time hunting monsters.
This is my original comment:
the Witcher ending means, assuming Geralt does settle down with one of the two love interests, she spends most of the rest of her life alone, on the road, and constantly risking her life in lonelyness.
Notice how it doesn't say anything you claim it says. It enumerates some very likely facts about her future life.
Let's look at them.
1)assuming Geralt does settle down with one of the two love interests, she spends most of the rest of her life alone <- that'd be the norm for Witchers, even Geralt. The
majority (means 50%+1)of his time is spent alone, on the Path, during the previous 100+ years. Why do you find this so baseless/offensive?
2)
on the road so.. she'd not do that? Why?
3)
and constantly risking her life Is that absurd? Why? If anything, given she doesn't even have Witcher sense/reflexes she'd much more in danger than any of them
4)
in lonelyness This is the only part you actually do discuss, partially. But I fail to see how this couldn't be, given she does have more than average emotions, her loved ones do not live with her etc.
Are you saying she gets some unnamed companions who also stay very often on the path with her most of the time? I mean, it would've been nice for the epilogue to mention that.
I mean, are we now debating if a Witcher's life is even lonely now?
And btw If we want to use that tactic as a mean of argument, then, why not, she meets the love of her life in the Empress Ending, they marry and live happily ever after. (My fantsy beats your fantasy!!!11)
Having said that, are you even talking about THIS comment or some other comment of mine you read somewhere else it may or may not have dealt similarly with the issue at hand? I did talk about Ciri and the various endings some time ago, but how is that relevant? I wasn't promoting my opinion, as expressed (or not) anywhere else.
