Who played the witcher 3 and didn’t want more Ciri gameplay? Wtf? The agile movement was so fun. Best parts of the game fight-wise.
These people didn’t play Witcher 3. It’s mostly right wing rage bait podcasts. They’ll move on to a different side thing to be mad about in a few days.
Here, me. The Ciri parts were like someone shoved a linear action adventure into the open world RPG I wanted to play.
I wanted to progress the main story but every time it was a ciri part I was trying to rush through to get back to Geralt and go kill monsters and collect items lol
I agree, but I liked the pacing of it. Ciri’s fights were pretty fun, unchallenging as they were. The fact that they were pretty sparse and short probably helped
They were the most challenging on the hardest difficulty at least with Geralt you can RPG.
Interesting. Death march was a bit too much for me in the beginning so I played most of the campaign in Blood and Broken Bones and the main missions were all pretty easy. I think I ultimately switched to death march because by the end I had optimized the fun out of the combat loop.
Yeah but you can’t optimize when you play as her. One of the last times against the witches I remember having to replay it a couple times lol
I didn’t like the ciri parts, I just wanted to play as Geralt tbh
Game was so boring, so slow, so clunky, so bleak, I never made it that far. Tried twice over the years. I want to like it. It seems great, but then actually playing it becomes a chore quickly.
Same, about 2-3 times over the years. Had to start over each time because I forgot everything. Just looking at the map gave me anxiety because it was just so much. I’m an OCD completionist, so I have to do everything, visit every place, collect everything. That game was just overwhelming. Everything else about it was great though.
