"No politics" in a chat setting ALWAYS means "shut up if you object to our pronouns." I've never seen it mean anything else, even when it wasn't intended.

Ciri need not even be the main issue. Although if looking at Ciri comparison Child + Adult + W4 (160+ years old). Well, she seems to have fat put on the front of her face. Her lips got resized. Nostrils widers and thicker?. The Witcher 4 Ciri would more pass as Ciri's mothers or a sister (without real comparisons to her actual mother and she has no sister that i recall). Anyways, we all know the company went woke before even revealing anything. Once they invite DEI consultants into the home then you know it is over. When you see the neighbors invite vampires in... you know the neighbors are now vampires. No shock that the forums are silencing everything aside from their woke ideology.
CDPR is not AAA any more... they are fixing to be bankrupt and have to go back to pixel art copy paste releases. they are going down the wrong path. I even wanted cyberpunk and I love cyberpunk but lets face it. The game is 1/3 of what was promised. it kinda sucks. its really broke. oh well wont get my money... OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH YEEEEEAAHHHH
Exactly! It only worked because it was brief, never overstayed its welcome, and her powers were unique. Apparently they learned nothing from this as they went opposite on those points for W4! 🤦♂️
Like I spend so much time upgrading geralt and being forced into a different play style I did not like, perhaps if it was more like a mirrored, line of quests? Like Infamous has a sister game where U play as the neon girl. Maybe you would have to option to play through the story as ciri experienced it? Could be pretty cool. Like resident evil raccoon city, you get to play 2 sides of the story.
I allready know People will buy that Shit when it gets released cause with UEngine it prob will look absolutly stunning and insane but i dont give a fck there will be other Games i spend my Money on fck Ciri xD
The perfect game for Auntie! A strong, independent, child free, middle aged woman with an angry, bitter, and baron chip on her shoulder. She travels the continent satiating her witchers libido and her growing dependency on hitting the bottle to survive those battles with monsters from her childhood. All in the hopes of saving other young women from the true monsters of the world. Conservative males. Everyone can see there is no indication of dei here. Just some good old Auntie adventuring.
Do not lose hope, it will take a few more years, but great times are coming. Majority of the great developers that made games we loved, have left those woke company, and build their own companies. They just need a few years to make the game and release them.
Always the same story. I'm banned in two games' forums for life because there were a ton of threads of people demanding pronouns and trans characters and I made a single post arguing against it.

That's all you need to know about new Witcher. Congrats CDPR, this probably will cost you your company. They're not a Polish anymore so whatever, it doesn't hurt me.

She is one of, if not the main character of the Witcher saga in the novels and with Gerald’s journey finished, we felt this would be an opportunity to develop ciri further.” That’s not what they did. As soon as the attacks and censorship comes, the game is doa. They will never learn.
Over my 41 years of gaming I've bought thousands of games but witcher 3 is my all time best game and have been waiting for a witcher 4 'for years 'But since seeing their new dei hired team and how all the good developers & writers have left and how they butchered the lore of witcher, I've finally had to put this game to rest, with a heavy heart 😢 I've had to admit to myself 'this is no longer the witcher that I once loved and I'm ready to turn my back, in no way will this game be anywhere close to what I was hoping for ,witcher is a Murderous, Bloodthirsty, Violent game 'Can you Seriously say that 'looking at that gay,woke team of women can deliver anything close to that! 'I don't think so. Nope I'm afraid witcher died with Geralt
I'll say the Witcher 3, and the DLC, is awesome; One of the best games I've ever played. You don't need to have played W1 and W2 to get the story, they do a pretty good job of explaining the background and the gameplay is top-notch. Definitely worth the buy.
They think shutting down the negativity over what you dont like and have voiced, what they dont even think about is that starts justifying your complaints over their actions and how they treat you as a customer, only making the backlash worse.

I can’t wait for them to get like 20 players. Then they freak out and beg us players to buy. Only played the third and was a fan of that. Glad I can just forget about the series.
I never got all the way through Witcher 3, on the Ps4, to play Ciri. However i did have the TTRPG from R.Talsorian Games and knew enough from literature. In that Ciri is neither a mage or Witcher, yet a Conduit. A source of power. Whoever is behind this iteration, they are subverting the source and sticking thefingers up towards the author of the novels/the fans andpotential customers. Should RTG ever renew the Witcher franchise, i will not buyvthe TTRPG. Its no longer a game, they are willing to sunder game companies to further their agenda.
It's even worse. At a certain point in the books, Ciri gave up magic. I don't mean "stopped using it," I mean cast it away from her being and can _no longer_ use it; her Elder Blood being the exception. That's setting aside the mutations not working for women. Whoever wrote up the premise for this game has no ability to bridge creative gaps, to address limitations, so they just said "eff it, she's a Witcher now" with no attempt to work around the obvious issues and make the scenario compelling thereby.

Also, the best part is, CDPR are still just acceptable enough for most normies that they're still considering Witcher 4.

Ugly women aren't the issue, just a sign of deeper, usually core fundamental design and technical problems at the studio.

The developers promised us that no people would get offended by the new Witcher game.. That alone tells us how woke it will be.. And they don`t understand that if you please everyone, you will not please anyone. (and when they do not want to offent someone, they mean 1-2% of population that does not play games anyway, but they will pay them a lot to put a lot of propaganda in their games..) By the way, if you still wonder if CD Project have gone woke or not, they have put out another UA-cam video some time ago called "Deep Dive: Approach to ESG". if yoy still are not sure after seeing this, then you will never be sure about anything..
They should have just called it a different name and not tried to call it the Witcher 4. Witcher 4 could have been after this game but corporations are idiots. She’s not a Witcher, she’s more than that.
The devs that made Cyberpunk and Witcher 3 moved over to War Horse Studios, an anti woke anti dei studio, and are making Kingdom Come Deliverance 2!! We need to support them as we boycott naughty dog, cdpr, obsidian, bioware and ubisoft!! They are a crowd funded studio too.
I was absolutely looking forward to this game. Didn't mind them moving on to Ciri being the lead, as long as the tie in made for an amazing story. My only problem was with the trailer. They made Ciri's chin and lips ginormous. Of course now they are changing the angles of the pics being used, making her chin look more pointed an it looks much better but them lips are still way to plump. then again I understand that the models will more than likely change over time an this trailer was rushed because of a leak. But now the banning of people talking about the game, it's just getting worse. why do these people not just make a game instead of spending all that time trying to block people from talking about it.. how many games need to fail before they get the hint that people are no longer pre ordering games based on news articles. We need to see everything an judge for ourselves. Dragon age hid everything and banned people and what was there 30 thousand returns an 100 thousand canceled pre orders. I'm still hopeful this turns out great thou
They all collectively scream that players should not be upset that new protag is woman as it was said that Gerald witches game is over They are GASLIGHTING ppl into believing that fans are upset cos woman protag while REALITY is that ciri-mutant-witcher breaks the whole canon and they do not want uglified ciri-woman-bossy haracter
Banning the people who disagree! Yup- that’s going to fix everything. Now there’s nothing stopping this game from being a runaway success. What could go wrong with that?
Nerf Ciri to be female Witcher well her old power more powerful then Witcher ability weaker version if not fanfic make here into Mary sue like the ring of power…. (We know were it go)
I am convinced CDred and DEI hate females at this point which is ironic. What was wrong with Ciri from Witcher 3? She is stronger than any man set in the Witcher universe and a naturally strong female lead? So why basically turn her into a man? Is fighting monsters and evil a man’s role in Witcher 4 so we have to turn a female into a Witcher to suite that role? Is logic not a thing anymore with these groups?
“Censorship?” Dude, steam is a private company that hosts user made forums. The moderators are allowed to keep conversation limited. For example, if you’re at my house at start talking about J 6 being a peaceful protest, then I’m allowed to ask you to leave.
It doesn't matter what they do at this point. I'm not buying the game ever and they could not even pay me to play the game even though I've been waiting for it forever. Besides they couldn't even do something as simple as staying true to the books. If they are so good at writing then why do they not write their own freaking books and create thier on freaking lore and make that the way they want it instead of messing up something that created by someone with real talent?
Yes... yes attacking anyone who criticizes me will surely show everyone how right and good i am compared to everyone else! *rolls eyes* These people are brilliant =D
Probably late 2027 if funding stays the same from Netflix and sources too small to see who they are. Someone said Sony and Microsoft and Amazon are in the smaller partner funds. Yeah, I can see that, most of the game awards GotY's have been bought and paid for by publishers. Not once have they told us what or how they score them but copies sold cant be it, public opinion and that cant do it, its not looks, its not gameplay, who knows but they are usually decent games somehow. But if the buy the GotY it will be the one, I personally think its closed bids and the highest bid gets it.
if we were smarter we would actually hype the game up for them so they spend even more money and then just not buy it. so much more effective to financially hurt them.
No need bc they did that already, been working on it a few yrs now, paid Mary Kenny 500k all said and done for one yr only to move her over. Netflix is on board and funding losing cash. But hiring double the old studio size that were actual devs and knew what they were doing. Now its 150 extra liberal activists like Mary Kenny bc they are her friends and she got them over pay. This probably already has 400 to 500 million spent and a few yrs more out. And they said maybe 65 million will buy this lol.
Be honest: woke stuff aside, do you really prefer playing a female character in a ROLE PLAYING game? Being a man, are you going to role play as a woman? Playing as her, will you hook up with male characters, or will you cope by being lesbian? Or is it better for the game to not feature any romantic element whatsoever, so Ciri can die childless like Geralt? Aren't any of those options disgusting? If they are going to make stuff up in the lore, wouldn't it be better to have a new male protagonist, a disciple of Geralt maybe? Maybe someone to have Ciri as a romantic pair, I mean, a man and woman falling in love like God intended? Wouldn't that be a good wholesome story for a beloved character like Ciri? I'm not against female protagonists, but we must acknowledge that there's a (good) reason as to why gamers in general prefer male protagonists.
Being honest. Never in any game, RPG or otherwise, I perceive the player character as a representation of myself. More than that. I DON'T WANT the PC to be a representation of myself. I am a boring person doing boring stuff. I rather follow adventures of someone else who is worth following. It is like watching a movie. That character being a female does not interfere with that (nor being a male). Not telling you that you must look at it the same way. Just showing you a different perspective.
It's not the biggest problem as plenty of games have proven gamers will be fine as long as the character is good. This game's problems seem to be a lack of respect and understanding for the franchise than the gender of the main character. After all, this isn't Ciri, this female Geralt.
@65firered don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's a problem. I'm asking you what you prefer. I assume that most gamers would prefer to play Chad Simulator rather than Stacy Simulator, right? Wouldn't you agree?
@@aweus you, and many others who think like you, seem to assume that role playing is supposed to be a representation of yourself. It's not. The point of role playing is precisely playing as someone you are not, like an actor. You don't play as if that character is you, it's the opposite. You play as if YOU are the character. Seeing it that way, it's easy to understand why most gamers would rather role play as a male characters. Because they don't want to pretend to be a women. I bet you too, even when you are playing as a female character you are not really role playing as her, because that would be pretty gay.
They probably call you misogynist for pointing out the lore itself! Like I even care at this point. Here are things to look forward to.... Kingdom Come 2 💪 Wayward Realms 💪 Skyblivion project 💪

By the way, if you still wonder if CD Project have gone woke or not, they have put out another UA-cam video some time ago called "Deep Dive: Approach to ESG". if yoy still are not sure after seeing this, then you will never be sure about anything..
It's like they haven't realized that people talk everywhere not just on steam. Lol
They should have just called it a different name and not tried to call it the Witcher 4. Witcher 4 could have been after this game but corporations are idiots. She’s not a Witcher, she’s more than that.
The devs that made Cyberpunk and Witcher 3 moved over to War Horse Studios, an anti woke anti dei studio, and are making Kingdom Come Deliverance 2!! We need to support them as we boycott naughty dog, cdpr, obsidian, bioware and ubisoft!! They are a crowd funded studio too.
Modern Audience Property (MAP). Where have we heard MAP before?
This message has not been approved by the Corporation.
I was absolutely looking forward to this game. Didn't mind them moving on to Ciri being the lead, as long as the tie in made for an amazing story. My only problem was with the trailer. They made Ciri's chin and lips ginormous. Of course now they are changing the angles of the pics being used, making her chin look more pointed an it looks much better but them lips are still way to plump. then again I understand that the models will more than likely change over time an this trailer was rushed because of a leak. But now the banning of people talking about the game, it's just getting worse. why do these people not just make a game instead of spending all that time trying to block people from talking about it.. how many games need to fail before they get the hint that people are no longer pre ordering games based on news articles. We need to see everything an judge for ourselves. Dragon age hid everything and banned people and what was there 30 thousand returns an 100 thousand canceled pre orders. I'm still hopeful this turns out great thou
Don't ask questions, just consume product, then get excited for next product.
Sheer cowardice.
Please use the “how many times do we need to teach you this lesson, old man?” SpongeBob meme
Okay, now I am convinced that Witcher 4 will be a woke mess.
They all collectively scream that players should not be upset that new protag is woman as it was said that Gerald witches game is over
They are GASLIGHTING ppl into believing that fans are upset cos woman protag while REALITY is that ciri-mutant-witcher breaks the whole canon and they do not want uglified ciri-woman-bossy haracter
Does cdpr moderate the forums on steam or does steam do it?
should i buy the witcher 1 remake when it comes out?
Keep up the good work
Those people are unable to see the patterns. At this point anybody can predict how this one will evolve XD oh well. **grabs pop corn**
no problem. CPDR employees will be paid with copies of Witcher IV and game will be successful
“Not political” = “Not our politics”
Irrelevant game from an irrelevant company.
And so it begins.
Banning the people who disagree! Yup- that’s going to fix everything. Now there’s nothing stopping this game from being a runaway success. What could go wrong with that?
Nerf Ciri to be female Witcher well her old power more powerful then Witcher ability weaker version if not fanfic make here into Mary sue like the ring of power…. (We know were it go)
I am convinced CDred and DEI hate females at this point which is ironic. What was wrong with Ciri from Witcher 3? She is stronger than any man set in the Witcher universe and a naturally strong female lead? So why basically turn her into a man? Is fighting monsters and evil a man’s role in Witcher 4 so we have to turn a female into a Witcher to suite that role? Is logic not a thing anymore with these groups?
there's no need to overthink this. Ciri is fuglified for the Modern Audience by the woke activists. It's a part of their narrative.
Wasnt Geralt story finished in the last game? isn't she the successor?
“Censorship?” Dude, steam is a private company that hosts user made forums. The moderators are allowed to keep conversation limited. For example, if you’re at my house at start talking about J 6 being a peaceful protest, then I’m allowed to ask you to leave.
They’re losing control 🤣🤣🤣
The woke agenda is already losing strength these days, imagine when these games are released? It will still take a few years for them to come out...
It doesn't matter what they do at this point. I'm not buying the game ever and they could not even pay me to play the game even though I've been waiting for it forever. Besides they couldn't even do something as simple as staying true to the books. If they are so good at writing then why do they not write their own freaking books and create thier on freaking lore and make that the way they want it instead of messing up something that created by someone with real talent?
CD Project Red bought rights to Witcher from the owner so they can do whatever they want with it but still I will not play as a Cirilla.
Yes... yes attacking anyone who criticizes me will surely show everyone how right and good i am compared to everyone else!
*rolls eyes* These people are brilliant =D
wanna bet this is gonna be game of the year for 2025? 🙄
Probably late 2027 if funding stays the same from Netflix and sources too small to see who they are. Someone said Sony and Microsoft and Amazon are in the smaller partner funds. Yeah, I can see that, most of the game awards GotY's have been bought and paid for by publishers. Not once have they told us what or how they score them but copies sold cant be it, public opinion and that cant do it, its not looks, its not gameplay, who knows but they are usually decent games somehow. But if the buy the GotY it will be the one, I personally think its closed bids and the highest bid gets it.
CD Project Ded are doing a Speedrun ban like Yandere Sim
Ah yes… this will definitely make me buy the game. We know these patterns way too well now
Now do a video explaining why you have a restraining order against you for beating your wife
Nothing inspires confidence in a product like a good silencing of criticism, eh?
Should have been Eskel, but they would have made him gay. They can't help themselves.
Witcher 4 might be the last nail on the woke coffin
steam forum is a nasty cancer.
The high seas calls!
They just happened to do it in the worst Time possible, when Trump won the Elections again 😂😂😂. Now all the Lunatics are freaking out.
censorship
Did you ever play The Witcher? You’re saying Geralts name wrong.
if we were smarter we would actually hype the game up for them so they spend even more money and then just not buy it. so much more effective to financially hurt them.
No need bc they did that already, been working on it a few yrs now, paid Mary Kenny 500k all said and done for one yr only to move her over. Netflix is on board and funding losing cash. But hiring double the old studio size that were actual devs and knew what they were doing. Now its 150 extra liberal activists like Mary Kenny bc they are her friends and she got them over pay. This probably already has 400 to 500 million spent and a few yrs more out. And they said maybe 65 million will buy this lol.
Just trying to milk some money with the name of the Witcher.
Cant agree more. Censorship is bad and never helps anything. Maybe you should take notes sjw classic.
They exposed your DV charges on tiktok 😅 not surprised
Cirilla is now Cirillo, the transman witcher.
Be honest: woke stuff aside, do you really prefer playing a female character in a ROLE PLAYING game? Being a man, are you going to role play as a woman? Playing as her, will you hook up with male characters, or will you cope by being lesbian? Or is it better for the game to not feature any romantic element whatsoever, so Ciri can die childless like Geralt?
Aren't any of those options disgusting?
If they are going to make stuff up in the lore, wouldn't it be better to have a new male protagonist, a disciple of Geralt maybe? Maybe someone to have Ciri as a romantic pair, I mean, a man and woman falling in love like God intended? Wouldn't that be a good wholesome story for a beloved character like Ciri?
I'm not against female protagonists, but we must acknowledge that there's a (good) reason as to why gamers in general prefer male protagonists.
The best solution would've been a character creator where we can customize to our heart's content
Being honest. Never in any game, RPG or otherwise, I perceive the player character as a representation of myself. More than that. I DON'T WANT the PC to be a representation of myself. I am a boring person doing boring stuff. I rather follow adventures of someone else who is worth following. It is like watching a movie. That character being a female does not interfere with that (nor being a male). Not telling you that you must look at it the same way. Just showing you a different perspective.
It's not the biggest problem as plenty of games have proven gamers will be fine as long as the character is good. This game's problems seem to be a lack of respect and understanding for the franchise than the gender of the main character. After all, this isn't Ciri, this female Geralt.
@65firered don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's a problem. I'm asking you what you prefer.
I assume that most gamers would prefer to play Chad Simulator rather than Stacy Simulator, right? Wouldn't you agree?
@@aweus you, and many others who think like you, seem to assume that role playing is supposed to be a representation of yourself. It's not.
The point of role playing is precisely playing as someone you are not, like an actor.
You don't play as if that character is you, it's the opposite. You play as if YOU are the character.
Seeing it that way, it's easy to understand why most gamers would rather role play as a male characters. Because they don't want to pretend to be a women.
I bet you too, even when you are playing as a female character you are not really role playing as her, because that would be pretty gay.
They probably call you misogynist for pointing out the lore itself! Like I even care at this point. Here are things to look forward to....
Kingdom Come 2 💪
Wayward Realms 💪
Skyblivion project 💪
