I should not need to explain this one.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Guaranteed the word "woke" will be thrown around left and right

I haven't seen a single complaint about Ciri being the protagonist of the next witcher game andI believe it's because she isn't a "let's put a woman here for the quotas" type of character.

Yeah, I honestly haven't seen an actual complaint.

Is it here, or on the internet as a whole? I have already seen a TON of vitriol in the trailer's comments on YouTube. They're loudly skreeeing woke, and DEI, and even the less insane ones are "so disappointed in CDPR."

EDIT - I spoke too soon, they're even here in this very post.

so disappointed in CDPR

Did they play the third game? Do they remember how important Ciri was, how special her powers?

I'm wagering most of them haven't.

They just start frothing at the sight of a powerful woman
