I suppose she means Yennefer and her plotting with Emhyr. No other explanation for this really. Or maybe ending from Lady of the Lake? But Ciri agreed with it so I don't know. I would really like to know what CDPR meant with it as well...

Another interview with Tomaszkiewicz brothers from E3 (May 2015)

Will The Witcher 3 have any ties to the novels that [Andrzej] Sapkowski has written?
Yes, of course. We always based [the games] on the Sapkowski novels and we’re using characters he mentioned in his books. And of course, we’ve got some story/plots which we want to solve in this third part, because it’s the last one. The name of the game is the “Wild Hunt.” And Sapkowski described them very well. People think that they are the wraiths from [The Witcher 2’s] nightmares but actually, they are not. They are very connected with Geralt and with Yennefer right now. Geralt in the second part of [The Witcher 2]remembered that Yennefer exists; he’s the woman he’s [in love with.] And now, he’s trying to find her. That’s how the story begins. It took you to a more personal adventure in his time.
So we’ll finally discover the mystery behind Yennefer? The Witcher 2 didn’t explain too much about it, it still kept it pretty vague.
Yes, of course. It was on purpose. You know, we [wanted] to only tease the subject and now we will explain everything.

I only could think that Avallak'h brainwashed her while they traveled together.
Yeah but Ciri isn't exactly the one who plays with words, is she? She wouldn't say it if she didn't mean it and believe it.
Which is why it's so confusing. But considering Yen wanted to send her to Emhyr, nothing would surprise me anymore.
And for good reasons. It would have been a spit to Triss fans, honestly.
Like we say in Italy: Hai voluto la bicicletta? Adesso pedala. You wanted the bike? Now ride. Yennefer presence was nowhere to be found, for plot reasons of course. But having no mention of her in W1, and giving a lot of space for Triss as LI in W2 lead to this rivalry between some fans in W3. At last CDPR had to face Yennefer introduction and handle both the characters, whetever it was joyful (and it was, reading these interviews) or not it was the right choice, to assure Triss presence in W3, even with Yen's return to the stage.
Shani incident was enough.

100% this. I agree.
In a nutshell:
And I'm glad that romance is here in a game. As I am happy for Yen fans that they finally got her in game.
I wrote a poem about that:
Geralt, Geralt, what a prick
---------------------------------
He just sucks in conversations with women, not only with Yen
I agree, if Yennefer appeared in the first two games it would have been a different story, but since they decided to give Triss the role of the main love interest it is the right thing to give players who liked her an option to choose her over Yen in TW3.
Oh! OK. Now I understand why devs didn't add a scene in the prologue where we could see Geralt doubting of his feelings or which sorceress chose once he recovers his memories. It was all already decided previously. Thank you very much. @Gilthoniel
FREEDOM OF CHOICE!
I HAVE MY OWN INTERPRETATION!
WHO IS THAT TOMASZKIEWICZ!
:disgust:
Yes, it was a huge mistake to left Yennefer out in the second game. People like what they are used to. So they like Triss due to TW2 despite her personality on TW1.
Yes. That's why I don't think Triss deserve some special treatment now.
No one says that it's a crime to like Triss...
---------- Updated at 12:03 PM ----------
Yep, I always thought that they should have introduced Yen's character in TW2 already, even if only briefly.
No one says that it's a crime to like Triss...
I like Triss. But i fell in love with Yennefer
Not special, but fair. There's a difference. Oh well guys, nothing can change my mind though, I will always choose Yen no matter what, but that doesn't mean other fans have to get their character preference spoiled, we are the best example... through 2 games.

Red wasn't fair with me in TW2, so why should I be worried about being fair now?
Triss had two games already. Time to move on.Maybe I should have used the word prefer, he was the dev who responded to us, and said that he will mention our issues at the office, I think he also said he likes Triss more(he is a member of Triss group), but I can't remember exactly what he wrote, so I toned it down. Sorry for offtopic, I won't do it again.
