Are you referring to this "inarticulate" statement by chance?
Yeah, seems to be more a matter of reading comprehension than of ambiguous wording, if you aks me. Or perhaps wishful thinking.
No I am not.Are you referring to this "inarticulate" statement by chance?
Yeah, seems to be more a matter of reading comprehension than of ambiguous wording, if you aks me. Or perhaps wishful thinking.
I am referring to the subtitle of the 3rd image in the gallery of the German Gamestar article saying roughly translated:
"The Witcher 3 is supposed to have a combined 16 hours of sex scenes. This Woman might play a role in that"
"In The Witcher 3 soll es insgesamt 16 Stunden Sexszenen geben. Diese Dame könnte darin eine Rolle spielen."

No reading comprehension problems here. Maybe the journalist had translation problems when being told that information.
HUGE SPOILERS FOR THE BOOKS AND VIDEO GAMES
Yennefer and Triss are two different sorceresses who many believe Geralt will have the opportunity to have a relationship with. Geralt had a long on again, off again relationship with Yennefer in the books. During one of the off again periods, Geralt had a brief relationship with Triss (she used magic to seduce him if I remember correctly). Triss tries to rekindle this relationship with Geralt in the Witcher Saga, but to no avail. In the penultimate book of the witcher saga, Triss reluctantly betrays Yennefer by following the Lodge of Sorceresses and Phillippa. Geralt ends up saving Yennefer (amongst doing other things) and the two are involved in a fight with one of the big bad guys. At the end of the books Geralt gets impaled by a pitchfork and Yennefer collapses while trying to revive Geralt. It is implied in the final book (but left ambiguous) that they both died. Ciri takes Geralt and Yennefer on a boat and disappears into some magical land.
In the video game canon ... Geralt and Yennefer are taken by Ciri to a heavenly place and live happily there until Yennefer is stolen by the Wild Hunt. Geralt chases the Wild Hunt all over creation and ends up fighting them. In the end he exchanges his soul for Yennefers. He then is part of the Wild Hunt until he escapes just prior to the 1st video game. In the Witcher 1 and Witcher 2 video games,Geralt has amnesia, and depending on player choices can start a relationship with Triss again. Triss is very helpful to Geralt in the games and shows Geralt real loyalty. Some players have become very fond of the Triss/Geralt relationship in the games.
There's a lot more to it than that, but that's the basic situation.

So Basically - the Yennefer/Triss choice is a choice many believe Geralt will be faced with in the game where he must choose to be in a relationship with Yennefer or Triss or neither.

Short version:
It's utter nonsense that should never ever be in this game if the writers really mean what they say about respecting the lore and characters Sapkowski conceived.
Okay, that doesn't even fall under the category of not being able to "express oneself properly", this is simply a false statement. Whether this is due to an inaccurate translation or done in an attempt to bait certain parts of the gaming community that get the tingles in their nether regions when it comes to the prospect of seeing a digital depiction of sex I don't even want to know.
And sentences like "Geralt und sein alter Meister Vesemir sind anfangs gemeinsam unterwegs, doch im Prolog trennen sich ihre Wege." make me involuntarily cringe.
hah... knew this would come up sooner or later... quite weird it comes up THAT late.
Recap the situation there? What is Triss being able to do? Nothing damned...
she is still exhausted and low on power there... thats the reason why Geralt says
Roche and him will solve this.
Even if she would be able to cast spells ... how many you think she would be able
to cast? Before the rest of Flotsam gets her and burn her alive? She can' t do anything
at this point. Nothing else than die with Geralt side by side... .... and ... she is looking away...
WHAT THE FUCK YOU EXPECT? That she enjoys every moment and stares at Geralt
while he dies? .... yeah... sure.... *rolleyes* She looks away because she can' t just endure
that shit
You must really hate Triss if you think that she would do nothing there... if she had the
reserves for it.
And she looks sad... even TW2 isn' t able to express that in the facial animation properly.
You still can see how sad she is... and even more how it goes deep into her she is that
powerless ...
Remember ... she almost died just a few minutes before, because she used to much power
to protect Geralt... and yes Roche to... but i think ... her love for Geralt made her being able
to use and endure that much poweruse...
*sighs* but yeah... you' re right... she is just a evul biatch... using Geralt for her own advantage
and joy.... just sees him... only as sextoy. Ready to drive a knife in his back at every time.

I have no idea how you can interpret from my one sentence that I hate her. Quite the opposite. I prefered her slightly over Yennefer before I have seen this.hah... knew this would come up sooner or later... quite weird it comes up THAT late.

And how can't she do anything? At this point there are 1-2 soldiers standing there. She could easily free him, even if there were more soldiers. And once freed Geralt and Triss could easily defeat every single soldier in the village. But she didn't even try. Triss reaction is so out of touch that the best solution is to treat this as non-canon. because of really really bad writing.
@Scryar
1-2 Guards .... yes, but you forget whole Flotsam is there? What you think the mob will do if a sorceress
tries to interupt their enjoyment? ... No its just as i said.,.. either she has enough power to deal with
everybody at the market (definatly enough power at that time), or she just can't do anything... without
just dying with Geralt there.
And you ve overseen my at the end. of course there is no "real" hate fro her
@Sephira
yeah... dark times are coming up

Nothing? Just like they did nothing when Geralt tried to interrupt their "enjoyment" when he tried to save Zoltan and Dandelion? And even if some of them would attack her, I think she is powerful enough to deal with some randoms peasants. She did it once during the pogrom in Rivia and they were all armed and baying for blood.
Well ... there is a certain other sorceress who
was totally willing to give up her life in an attempt to save Geralt, who kept on going despite being completely exhausted from performing spells and who eventually died by his side.
But I guess that is the difference between having a crush on someone and actual true love.
troll-mode on
Yes.. and she does the right reserving her forces for facing Philippa and say her "Forgive me, I've failled.... The Witcher is dead"
Geralt turns the mob on his side, before he takes action
at last when i play this point in the game In Riva she didn t used up all her power short before she casts the hailstorm.
@Tokei-ihto
Well ...she just might be stunned (mentally), don' t have the wish to be one of the peasant and guards
once she wakes up and has enough power to deal with everybody
But i already told:
Ok my lovely cat ... now it gets surreal XD why the heck, should be Philli mad at her when Geralt dies?
She is already mad at her because she is in love with him XD XD
