ATTENTION EVERYONE I REMOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YEN SO EVERYONE SHOULD BE HAPPY NOW.
TRISS INCONSISTENCIES
Areas we like to see improve base on the previous thread. I added a little detail based on recent inputs from the current thread.
Suggested fixes requires very minimum and in most cases no new scenes, just minor tweaks to existing visuals and dialogue.
1. ROSE OF REMEMBRANCE: Be able to give it back to Triss at some point preferably before final battle.
2. NOVAGRAD: Not being able to tell her that we broke up with Yen for good (We should be able to tell her that we broke up with Yen during that conversation where she asks about her). If the player choose to complete skellege first
-Triss providing more information about our house in Pont Vanis as she said she would after saving Philippa.
3. KAER MORHEN: Her not being present at Kaer Morhen (She really should be there, we are missing out on the biggest part of their relationship, the reunion). Have some interaction with the characters at kaer morhen and have Triss talk to Geralt about kiss-or Geralt reassure Triss after the Yen kiss (scene tweak - instead of saying good to see you, he should walk up to her kiss/hug her if romanced).
-Ciri and Triss need some dialogue at Kaer Morhen or on boat they don't speak to each other except for the hug at Kaer Morhen.
-During the Witcher drinking session with Lambert and Eskel if Geralt romance Triss, dialogue option should allow him to discuss it with his fellow Witchers. (No changes to scene just dialogue tweak/addition and Triss presense).
-It would be nice for Vesemir to acknowledge their relationship before he falls in battle if Geralt romance Triss.
-And for the love of Witcher consistency please have Triss be at Kaer Morhen when Geralt invite her and not show up later after Geralt brings Ciri and then credit Yen for it.
-Vesemir funeral scene can be tweaked to have Geralt's love interest comfort him a little like he comforted Ciri. Nothing major and does not require major scene changes just minor tweaks and dialogue. (Very significant because of Geralt and Vesemir relation like father and son)
-Lastly, may be too much but, Geralt and Triss can have a meaningful scene at kaer morhen. Does not have to be another romantic scene, can be discussion about future plans at the table with the other witchers (Minor scene tweak)
4. ISLE OF MIST: During the Isle of Mist when Geralt and Ciri are having their little conversation about her journey through world's, have Ciri ask him about what's been happening with him. Perfect time to talk about Geralt and Triss relationship and his decision to be with her if Geralt romance Triss. (No scene change just more dialogue).
5. BOAT/FINAL BATTLE PREPARATIONS/FINAL BATTLE: Have some dialog about Kovir and their future plans on the boat, it is the perfect place for Triss and Geralt to hash out those details she promised they'll discuss later (Dialogue mostly)
-A Conversation on the boat in Skellige (Being able to interact with her and do anything other than "Well?").
-A romantic conversation with her in the tent before the final battle (If Geralt romance her). "Good luck" from Triss to Geralt before the final battle does not adequately portray a lovers concern for the severity and dangers of the coming battle.
-A conversation between Triss and Geralt about alvin note.
6. WORLD ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PLAYER CHOICE: NPC acknowledges player choices and romantic interest or have the dialogue option to correct/inform them. (Cerys and other Characters like her)
At the point where all of the mentioned above is provided, we reach the point of having her as a valid romance option, again we reached (Equality).

Play Nice people
+ I maintain that Triss should have another love scene otherwise Yen bias still exists.
+ I don't see how Alvin has bearing on the main plot. He wasn't discussed in the whole of
The Witcher 2 as I remember?
+ Triss needs to accompany you on a mission in Act 3. Either a new one, or replace Phillipa in the Sunstone.
+ As we discussed last night, Triss and Yen should have a confrontation over her sleeping with Geralt for close to a year, taking advantage of his memory loss (as Yen would see it) and stealing him from her (as Yen would see it). What you put in the screenshots last night was pretty close to perfect for this. It's preposterous to assume that
wouldn't happen.
Rest I completely agree with.
And for Heaven's sake, CDPR, if the DLC with Shani is not self contained and somewhere you vist as part of the main quest, if you don't have the option to romance Shani (or even if you do), have her recognise you're in a relationship with either Triss or Yen. Don't make the same mistakes twice.
