@khaliltooshort I will never play this game again - you just ruined it for me lol.

@RassieRugby Come on Rassie, if you want to try out old or new players, you have to do it better than that - you can't just throw them all in a blender together - it never works! Keep at least six or seven of the core intact so they can enter into a system that works.

@QTRBlackGarrett So true - even @RebelWolvesDevs need this - and they made the Witcher games!

@RutgerBlume Even the new atheists don't have these kinds of dumb opinions anymore - like you say its 2026 - grow up.

@Tablesalt13 Are Canadians the only people left on earth who are still allowing themselves to get triggered by Trump being Trump? It's been 10 years of this stuff. Also the people who lose their shit about him always end up losing.

@TheLastCro68863 @Spelleroftruth @thewitcher @rohans62 Witchers are a clear male archetype cribbed from several sources - the gunslinger, the hardboiled detective, the wandering knight etc. Men and women are not interchangable, so you're fundamentally changing the story. Also when I say 'lone' I don't mean he's alone all the time lol

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@Cubanisimo09_ @Spelleroftruth @thewitcher @rohans62 Actually, when you are replacing a 100% male archetype with a woman, that is a very good reason to complain. I don't want to see a woman being a Witcher anymore than I want to see a woman playing a Clint Eastwood role in a western.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@SmeepUCA @thewitcher @rohans62 @CDPROJEKTRED Nah I'm often fine with that - but replacing a guy who's basically the ultimate lone gunslinger archetype with a woman - sorry not interested. Its like replacing Clint Eastwood in a western or as Dirty Harry with a woman.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@TheLastCro68863 @Spelleroftruth @thewitcher @rohans62 I know she's prominent in later books - my original point still stands.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@SmeepUCA @thewitcher @rohans62 @CDPROJEKTRED Oh believe me I know - I'm talking to a clown right now lol

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@SmeepUCA @thewitcher @rohans62 @CDPROJEKTRED Just letting them know - suspect there are a few more. But thanks for defending them Swaffles - you seem like a swell guy.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@Cubanisimo09_ @Spelleroftruth @thewitcher @rohans62 No the books ended once Geralt's story ended - because he's the main draw in the Witcher universe. It wasn't all so one day we could have CDPR's Witcher 4 starring Ciri lol

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@TheLastCro68863 @Spelleroftruth @thewitcher @rohans62 Of course it was - the series never becomes anything without creating the solo gunslinger Witcher archetype - Ciri is not the draw and never will be.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@thewitcher @rohans62 Honestly - ever since that Ciri announcement my enthusiasm for CDPR has just tanked - I don't even play your games anymore. You just had to jump on that bandwagon.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@yamanakanobody So refreshing to hear people from other countries say this lol.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@PF_Jung He also said if you take intersectionality to its natural conclusion, you end back up at the individual, because there are an infinite number of ways to classify people. So the whole thing is nonsense to begin with.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@nationalbook @vulture There is no discrimination like the kind of discrimination that happens when a field becomes female-dominated.

[Rick Jones @RickJones616]

@fandompulse The good king is a powerful and ancient archetype, which means it is also true. Western civilization flourished because for many periods in its history, it had good kings. That's the side of the patriarchy they don't teach anymore.

@KhustaLudaka401 @ThabisoMosia Fair point.
