I guess you would agree with me that same can be said about some of the Triss fanboys...
I do agree, just get the feeling the Yen group is a bit more "vocal" so to speak. But then again, maybe I'm biased.
Classic Yen fanboys what can you do?
---------- Updated at 02:48 PM ----------
Not even comparable with how salty Yen fanboys are
Poor folks try to justify Yen being less popular than Triss with silly arguments (mature relationship and reducing Triss to a Teenager one)
Does it make you angry? It seems so - why do you not ignore such posts then? If Yen is being less popular - you can easily put to ignore list all of the Yen's fanboys.
Not all are like that though and it doesn't make me angry I'm enjoying the salt (its just silly)
Here we go again...
"It's a matter of taste." Everyone eventually agrees.
"But X fanboys are worse."
*Kicks the boulder back down the mountain*
Twenty posts later...
"They are both very different, it's nice we were given the choice." Everyone eventually agrees.
"We should be able to kill Y, I hate her."
*Kicks the boulder back down the mountain*
Twenty posts later...
"They are both interesting characters, they just appeal to different sorts...book fans and game fans and all." Everyone eventually agrees.
"But X fanboys are way more vocal and salty..."
*Kicks the boulder back down the mountain*
We seeing a pattern here yet? :wallbash:

I dont think its a good idea to keep talking about "fanboys" and who is or isn't one, if we all just try to stick to what we love, and discuss the books/games politely and respectfully that would be more than good enough innit?
plenty of room for the fanboys and non fanboys of all teams here.

You saw the RED post earlier hinting that Shani may be featured in an upcoming expansion. You are now preemptively getting your head down. Waiting for the tidal wave. We know. We, too, fear the imminent flood.
bring on Shani and her "lovers" >_<
the more the merrier, just hope Geralt's heart can survive it

Shani is quite the possessive little vixen. I was actually really surprised she wasn't given a cameo (I guess she will be in an expansion). I thought during that dialogue with the doctor during the vampire quest that he would tell you where she was. To be fair, he sort of does...except her location appears to be out of reach, because she's "on the front, treating people".
If i HAD to choose between the two, i would pick Yennefer, mainly because of the books. She would sacrifice everything, including her self for both Ciri and Geralt (suicide mission to reach Vilgerfortz castle, trying to save Geralt at Rivia extermination). Im amazed how good CD Project Red made Yennefer the same person in game as she was in the books.
On the other hand, you have Triss, a person who was with Geralt in previous games. Very close friend in books (at one point they were more that close), lover in first two games. In Wild Hunt her Novigrad content is really powerful. As Geralt you just cant forget about all those moments you had spent together. Because of that, the choice who to pick is really hard.
At this point in the game, Yen is a "better pick", because of the inconsistency of Triss content (not present in Kaer Morhen at curing Avalach curse, not reacting to Yen passionate kiss after Ciri arrival to KM when you are in romance with her, close to zero dialogue at the last Skellige part, famous "Well?", only saying "Good luck" before last fight against Wild Hunt). Overall, both ladies are fantastic and i love them both.

This type of post is really, really NOT acceptable in these forums.
As they're fictional characters (remember?) a certain amount of criticism of Yen and Triss is OK, but moving from that to insulting other forum members is likely to end badly.
Lots of people have said it, but naturally no official confirmation that Shani will show up in the first expansion since it takes place in Oxenfurt and all.
I got the sense Cerys was into Geralt from the looks at the feast and her asking about Yennefer.
Ahh, haven't encountered that, but I still think this isn't odd for her not contacting him until she needs to.
Yennefer is always "informed" where Geralt is, with whom and what he is doing. The latest book Season of Storms showed that again, when she coincidentally meet an old friend called Lytta Nerd just to talk
Season of Storms spoiler:
Mosaik didn't answer. Yennefer was silent too, wrapping a black curl around her finger. Suddenly she lifted her head, looking in the eyes of the girl. And smiled.
>He asked you to come back to me<, said Lytta Neyd. >Ask you, to come back, although he might have guessed what could happened to you by me. That, i have to admit, i didn't expect that from him.<
The fountain splashed, smell of wet stone. Flowers give their odor, smell of ivy.
>He surprised me with that<, repeated Lytta. >I didn't excpect that from him.<
>Because you didn't know him<, respond Yennefer calmy.
>You didn't know him at all.<

There is also this incident with Geralt's swords and as chance would have it
she "heard" of it too and intervened, when it was necessary.
While i am on it, this reminded me also of something in Season of Storms:
Geralt had flirted with
Mozaïk, an apprentice of Lytta, on numerous occasions so he could annoy Lytta, which later resulted in Lytta breaking Mozaïk’s hand out of pure jealousy.
That's all. We don't know how or what exactly she did, but she did it. I wouldn't interpretate too much into it.
No one, because it isn't a competition.

Found another passage for why she doesn't contact him.
Blood of Elves:
In that same dialogue with Dandelion she also shows how cold and "bitchy" she can be, or not:
Blood of Elves:
Blood of Elves:
“There was something between us.That’s why I know him a bit. He does not like having help imposed on him. And if he was in need of it he would seek it from those he could trust. A year has gone by since those events and I…I’ve not had any news from him. And as for our debt, I owe him exactly as much as he owes me. No more and no less.”
In that same dialogue with Dandelion she also shows how cold and "bitchy" she can be, or not:
Blood of Elves:
Do as I ask. I wouldn’t like anything bad to happen to you. I like you too much, owe you too much—”
“You’ve said that already. What do you owe me, Yennefer?”
The sorceress turned her head away, did not say anything for a while.
“You travelled with him,” she said finally.
“Thanks to you he was not alone. You were a friend to him. You were with him.”
The bard lowered his eyes.
“He didn’t get much from it,” he muttered.
“He didn’t get much from our friendship. He had little but trouble because of me. He constantly had to get me out of some scrape… help me…”
She leaned across the table, put her hand on his and squeezed it hard without saying anything. Her eyes held regret.
“Go to Redania,” she repeated after a moment. “To Tretogor. Stay in Dijkstra’s and Philippa’s care. Don’t play at being a hero. You have got yourself mixed up in a dangerous affair, Dandilion.”
“I’ve noticed.” He grimaced and rubbed his aching shoulder.
“And that is precisely why I believe Geralt should be warned. You are the only one who knows where to look for him. You know the way. I guess you used to be… a guest there…?”
Yennefer turned away. Dandilion saw her lips pinch, the muscles in her cheek quiver.
“Yes, in the past,” she said and there was something elusive and strange in her voice.
“I used to be a guest there, sometimes. But never uninvited.”
