hot take: i fucking hated the way ciri and every single other woman in witcher3 was written/portrayed...
they all felt like they were written by incels who have never met or conversed with an actual real woman. they were shallow game of thrones/fantasy tropes and felt like walking talking cliches. i literally cringed through every interaction...
I get this somewhat but including ciri? I feel like there was none of that with her character. What about her struck you as that?
she was basically wesley crusher, without the character growth.... she was a plot device, not a character.
