I know it's Internet and I may be expecting a lot, however I would appreciate if you focused on the subject instead of making wild guesses.(regarding lack of proper preparations)There are at least two trailers, Night to Remember, and the one I linked in the post above, that emphasize preparations prior to monster hunt. And you've ignored my chief complaint - Ciri's improvising. It's been at least ten, maybe more years since the events of the Wild Hunt, she must've been to many hunts. Oh, but that's one of the main component of multiple Witcher stories and quests. The ecology, the right to exist, the matter of lengths one goes toward surviving. Do I really need to put together a laundry list of moments Geralt is painfully aware of the hard choices he makes? This is older, mature Ciri. A little thought should have been given to this, a nod to viewers to indicate that she is not a self-righteous person who sees world in black and white.And now I feel I need to return your question: did you play Red Baron quest? The alderman's ear - does that ring a bell?(hey, it's D&D combat)Actually, the trailers were better about conveying the risk of the combat, and the damage Geralt took. I expected Ciri - when she gets hit on the face, to show at least a bruise, a bit of blood.And, this is a freaking annoying thing - in a middle of combat, you take eyes off your enemy, bare your throat and gulp a potion: [MEDIA=youtube]54dabgZJ5YA:116[/MEDIA]Here's where she gets hit on her face - with no attempt to cover it: [MEDIA=youtube]54dabgZJ5YA:116[/MEDIA]Such a sloppy work on the side of animators <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />We're agreed on this, though I hope this is just how early in development we are, with not enough assets.Given that most of the old Witcher lore died with Vesemir, I would expect that witchers were reinvented by Yennefer and Geralt. With fewer orphans dying, and more consideration given to the world at large. I fully expect that new witchers are different, have different rules or role to fulfil.Regards,Ruemere</blockquote>
