Yennefer is the obvious choice... Honestly Triss was always just a side bitch to Geralt, js.

Various reasons, for one I didn't like the Geralt & Yen romance in TW3 and how Geralt acted aroud her and how she treated him, apparently its one of the important parts in the books
Also Triss will get shafted again so thats another big minus, for me she and Geralt are TW

Another part is that I'm not the biggest fan of the whole Elder Blood/ Chosen one story with Ciri
I like the politics aspect of TW2 much more (as far as I'm concerned TW2 was better than TW3 in the story department) and just Geralt monster hunting & being with his friends as opposed to parallel worlds, White Frost, prophecies etc.

And as far as I have heard the books are focused on Ciri and all that stuff
I like her as a character but already in TW3 I think she took away too much focus from Geralt

For a character,who does almost nothing,Triss gets lots of attention in the books,

Politics,as well as monster hunting and Geralt hanging out with his friends play a huge part in the books.Parallel worlds are a thing only in the last book,and the White Frost is not that important.

And on a side note. Of course, Triss is gonna win the poll. There is a clear majority of non-book readers on this forum, who have only played the game. So, of course there will be more votes for Triss, because she is more well-known by most, because she is in the previous games.

...Or it could just be that Triss has a better personality than Yen? Just a guess.

Hm, if I olny knew the games I would be more open to Yen, I guess. In my case it's because of the books that I'll never ever choose Yen ;)
(Don't get me wrong : The character Yennefer is cool but the relationship to Geralt is disgusting.)

I haven't read through all of this thread, and I tend not to read too much of these versus threads. Yes, there has been some shit thrown by some. But you can't possibly claim that Triss fans have not shitted on Yen? I have seen far more shit thrown on Yen, without a doubt...

I like both women. But, I like Yen even more. I'm a bit like Geralt I guess. I had amnesia during the first two games, and during that time I loved Triss. But then, before TW3, Geralt recovered his memory and I read the books. So, both me and Geralt realized we love Yen. But, we still consider Triss as a dear friend. Despite the fact that Triss used him during the amnesia, I hold no grudge towards her. My Geralt, who above all else is really a concerned father in TW3, remembers how Triss helped his daughter Ciri in Blood of Elves with her nightmares and "womanly problems". Triss will always have my gratitude for that. But, my love will always only be for Yennefer.

And I respect that as opposed to some here who just shit on Triss without any real reason..

For my Geralt: he did love Yen at a certain point but the memory loss changed things
He began to love Triss and even though his memories returned that didn't change, Yen and my Geralt are more like parents who are seperated now but still have a connection since they both care for Ciri a lot

Some doesn't like the books because of to much Yen in them. I hope they doesn't make a movie or a series based on the original story. God forbid for that! How much can a person take! (I'm being ironic of course).

Hahaha I am currently reading the books (Still not up to where Triss shows up) and im cringing at the thought that he is going to shut down Triss for Yen in the future. Shes really cold and any kind of tiny affection she showed towards Geralt did not start to appear until after the infamous love spell was cast.

Really not a fan of the Geralt - Yen relationship but the setting & story has a lot of potential for a TV series. Wonder if after GOT finishes it might be the next piece of fiction that's turned into a series.

So you're going to ignore the Second Nilfgaard war, the Thanedd coup, Vilgefortz ect Just because Triss and Geralt are not the couple? :/

Thanned Coup? Vilgefortz?

I'm not a fan of the Geralt and Yen relationship (she was already shoved in my face enough in TW3) but thats not even the main reason (the whole Parallel worlds, Elder Blood etc. stuff is)

Considering the fact that the first three books were very political, with the last two books taking a more personal focus (the politics also did not see a TW3 quality drop)) along with the stuff you mentioned not really having that much of a big impact as you think. Elder blood only becomes truly important once more people learn about Ciri and all start creating their own reason to have her.

It depends on how I view the question. For me personally, I'd probably choose Triss for a relationship. However from a literary standpoint, I would choose Yen for Geralt. I prefer Yen from this perspective because she's a well-rounded, flawed character.

Whereas Triss is basically portrayed as a Mary Sue type of character in the games. She'd have been a more interesting character to me had the games focused a bit more on her flaws, which are really only seen in the books. Sure one can argue that we do see a bit of her manipulative side in taking advantage of Geralt's amnesia, but the games hardly even mention it.

Parallel worlds are only a thing in the last book.

There is a Polish TV series, not quite good though. It is based on short stories preceding the main saga, but 3 out of 13 episodes are completely made up and the rest is only inspired by short stories. As a hardcore fan I am not fond of too many changes to the source material. Also the budget is quite low so special effects...kind of suck.

On the other hand it has medieval atmosphere, nice music and Michal Zebrowski playing Geralt is very authentic.

Not sure if I want AGOT-like Witcher series. But they are working on new film in Poland: http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2014/08/23/a-new-witcher-movie-is-currently-in-production/

Yep. A lot of truth in this. Guy is whipped beyond belief.


I don't believe Triss is higher in the polls because people haven't read the books. In fact I like Triss better than Yen because I have read the books, not to mention the time spent with her in the games.

Triss or Yennifer?

I'm really curious, who do you like better and why?

Let's get the votes in.
