sorry to interrupt your magnificent pics of triss but i'd like to say what i think
so basically adding post end stuff when the end of the game has been determinated might result in ruining the ending for someone but i think they could manage quite easily to make an extra dlc or expansion. cdpr really loves their fans because thats what keeps them alive (except food) so i guess they would do anything to make their fans happy
My personal favourite. So lovely!
Found this on reddit. It's a ingame screen from a cutscene using the free camera mod. How can anyone not want more of this?:wub:
@Eesti The how are you feeling dialog leads to you asking her how she feels after the torture scene, but since you, just like me probably didn't let anyone touch her it just leads to an empty dialog.
So I've been here for quite some time and just realised that I haven't voiced my opinion yet. Very interesting discussions in this thread so far. Just hope it stays that way
Though I've read the books, games gave me an opportunity to change Geralt, to let him start anew. His relationship with Triss was a great way to show this, slowly developing through all games. Besides that, Triss herself slowly became a very complex character, which was very nice. It was very promising until I finished the third game.
Sometimes I think that a Witcher game just can't hold more than one strong romance at a time. One choice is always weaker than the other one. There are Shani , Ves, and it looks like Triss joins them now.
In this game their relationship with Geralt feels separated from the rest of the main world. I mean, in Novigrad every second character acknowledges their feelings, while after that I only hear phrases about the first and second game, mostly jokes about sex. Nobody mentioned a word about Novigrad events and their current relationship.
And then there is Yennefer. Not going to start anything, she was written very well, and there were some interesting scenes, but the main problem is, the game forces you to be that Geralt, from the past. What about my Geralt, who has significantly changed compared to himself in the books? Not to mention the importance of that love confession in Novigrad. Oh, whatever.
As soon as Yennefer comes in sight, Geralt turns into some sort of flirting machine. Every time I wanted him to say something and stop this, he did exactly the opposite thing. Well at least there is a jinni quest, thanks for that. And again, every interaction with Yennefer pretty much like moments from the books, but this game just doesn't seem to care about our previous acts from earlier games. Half of the game is for the newcomers, and the other half is trying to follow the book steps.
Anyway, the more I think about it, the more I wish that they should've implemented something like Iorveth/Roche choice. After Novigrad Triss becomes very silent character("Well? Well? Well?"). Even that scene with her after Kaer Morhen feels like some kind of a rushed explanation to the ending slide( Your choices durning conversations don't really affect that slide at all, but it's already me grumbling). No reactions, references ,quests, etc. All that really makes you feel....restricted in terms of relationship and your choices .
I am really hoping for more additional content, will it be expansions or DLC with changes to the original game, because right now it all seems really incomplete.

Also there are perfect opportunities to have some touching scenes before major events like Battle at KM and the final battle, when you dont even know if everyone is going to survive through these, but there is nothing again, you cant even talk to Triss before/after those pivotal events.
Thankfully late in the game whilst in the brothel i was able to give her the figurines and also give her her earring back, which had a nice bit of geralt flirting even her comments made the whole thing seem best fitting prior to the love declaration.
I'm hoping expansions take place post game really. More zones in the middle aren't really needed and might throw off the narrative pacing. It could also provide opportunity for Triss content(which i really want to see). Maybe Yen could be there too and we could see some interactivity of the choices on their own relationship as well as getting some missions involving the various partners.
When it comes to Triss, I guess they figured it was okay to put her on the back burner. She got relegated to the support/secondary role and that just sucks as we spent 2 games building a relationship with her. Regardless of the circumstances of the relationship and what was happening with Yennefer during, it was real, it went through hell and back, it was real love and this is what we are left with. Even when Geralt got his memories back and remembered that he loved Yen, he didn't just forget about Triss - she was still a huge part of his life. I couldn't even begin to describe how happy I was to walk in the Kaedwani dungeon and see Triss there finally, more or less okay. :wub:
Also, please no more pictures! My heart can't take it. Ahh, just kidding, keep em coming. I could never have enough Triss.
