The last wish
Just had a nice discussion about this quest and while we were talking, we came up with a... strange fact.
Okay. We have Yennefer and Geralt, searching for a D'Jinni. They find him and have a free wish. A D'Jinni can fulfill all wishes. Complex and very amazing things. Things that are impossible even for magicans etc.
Let's get this straight:
Their daughter is missed, the wild hunt is all around and dnagerous, there is a war, magicans and nonhumans are hunted and brutally killed... and they both wish to end some kind of "game-lore"-relationship-bound between them?
Not a single thought about what can you do for the world, or for her freaking daughter who is in danger. The game tells so often, that both Yennefer and Geralt would do anything for Ciri. Absolutly anything to save her... but using a D'Jinni wish is not a part of it
I knooooooow it would not possible cause mainstory and stuff, and this is just a "romance-LI" side quest. But... I think this was not the best idea, and it seems like a lack of originality. I know it just symbolize the relationship from Yennefer and Geralt a bit better to the people who only played the games or only played the third game. But after overthinking it, it makes me wonder
PS: Same counts for O'Dimm. Geralt can wish something from such a mighty person and the options are... for a gamer in the agme are good (food, money etc.) but for the whole story a bit under the top.
Same counts for the thing, that Gaunter can't do anything about Ciri (okay, he gives you tipps that she comes back for you...)
But this fact can be explained, cause Geralt is clever and don't want any "side-thing" of a O'Dimm wish
