Hehe, i also think Eskel is the better choice, i really enjoyed his over the top aggressive fighting style during the Morhen siege, would like to explore where that would have come from, how he got his scar, what makes Eskel who he is during W1 - W3If the protagonist of the next game were to be a character from the books, Eskel would be a good choice, too. He's as old and experienced as Geralt, just not as famous/notorious. Perhaps too similar to Geralt in many ways, but on the other hand, a different personality can make the experience fundamentally different.
EDIT: Good timing, Zoj!![]()
Thats because the poll does not give proper options. The series does not need to be tied with only Geralt, it can be another leader character. So when it says- " i am fine with the series ending with Geralt, it makes no sense," it makes no sense whatsoever because there are plenty of room for Ciri's tale, one where Geralt is not required.Interesting poll results. Are people really that fed up with Geralt?

My personal preferance is to play a completely new character linked with Ciri, instead of playing Ciri herself.
Way to show what a mature, non-assholish individual you are.Instead of having a male only witcher, gender options should given in the next one. I wouldnt mind watching high quality animated women on women action. As for this game, u cant, because its directly from the book, which clearly defined Geralt as a guy, not some tranny who cant make up their gender.
Pretty much. Lets focus on Cyberpunk for now and years down the road after we're done with that, maybe we can return to another tale from the life of the white wolf. There are more then enough adventures from Geralt and his friends left to tell, but right now it would be difficult to tell them and get past the whole "been there, done that" feeling.No thanks. If I'm not playing as Geralt then I see little point to be interested in any other installments proceeding TW3.
I'd like it. especially with ciri-specific abilities. (transporting, slowing time, whatever)
It would be fresh while still continuing the series in a good way. the series is about geralt and ciri, not about the world.
you folks needto realize the series is not called the witchers- it is called the WITCHER. it is not about witchers nor do we need a new witcher. it is about geralt, THE witcher, and his company. and ciri is a witcher anyway.
so a ciri game could still be called the witcher. (it could involve geralt as a secondary character, npc, or something as well)
In fact, it is a great idea the more I think of it. they could call it "the witcheress"- a simple rebranding without the rebranding- attract newbies while staying true to the series
The people whining about gender baffle me- you watch tv with female leads, you read the books.. as a male I have 0 problem playing ciri. I'd never choose a female protag over a male if I had a choice (like in dragon age), but i'd lOVE to play ciri- not because she is female, but because she is ciri.
If it is a story based on an established female lead, I do not mind. why the hell would you mind? Of course if it is a gender neutral game like DA, I'll play a male, sure.. but this is Ciri, not some random girl.
Please, CDPR, do this. the more i think of it, the more I love it.. It is a way to stay fresh and introduce new gameplay and deliver incredible story that continues, staying true to the novels and the novel's setting and cast. I don't want just a new witcher- that is dragon age. I'll pass. I want more out of my story and MC.
I don't think that people understand that Ciri was designed to be OP- she was just an OP story section and it does not mean that TW4 would have an unbalanced combat system. if they made a game about her, she would not have OP HP regen, and if she had a blink, combat would be designed to reflect that with a challenge.Ciri is a great character. And a game with her would be awesome.
But...they should nerf a bit the blink, and put into some dodge animations and counter attacks.
Of course.I don't think that people understand that Ciri was designed to be OP- she was just an OP story section and it does not mean that TW4 would have an unbalanced combat system. if they made a game about her, she would not have OP HP regen, and if she had a blink, combat would be designed to reflect that with a challenge.
so you want a bigger better story (like skyrim) with a blank genderless character.No, skyrim like witcher 4 would be the best, even when only we could create witcher character (no mage etc - just one class witcher), it would steel be better. Let say we could choose from 4 schools - wolf, griff, cat and bear - and then some interesting story, bigger world then in w3 (more regions - maybe north, nilfgard and zarrikania). This would be very niceThey have the ending already, all is required - some more regions to add and we have a ka - ching.
