Yes. The games already retconned the ending of the books, which was pretty finalized. But whatever, the games were good. But now they're just force extending an already forced extended storyline rofl. I was hoping for completely new characters in a completely new settings/time period. Such a fucking shame.

They made such a big deal about the witcher 4 not being about Geralt and being it's own story, and now they're just extending Ciri's storyline. Pretty braindead decision in my opinion. It feels like they are just lazy and gave up on making a new character.

    I think it's risk aversion to some extent ?

    It's the same bullshit that has ruined hollywood. It's safer to just reboot some bullshit or force a sequel vs. coming up with something new and original.

    I'm not saying doing another Witcher game in general is a forced sequel. But using the same damn character is definitely a forced extension.
