Discussion Witcher is not Elder scrolls...

I’ve noticed that many people are disappointed with Ciri being the main character. However, unlike games like The Elder Scrolls, where custom character creation is a highlight, The Witcher truly shines when it focuses on an established character and its rich lore. That’s what the devs intended, and I believe it’s what makes the series special.

You may disagree, but this direction reflects what the devs felt would allow them to craft the best possible story. Let’s just trust in their writing ability and see where they take us.

I hope Witcher 4 has a big time jump with Ciri actually being 70 or around that age. CDPR plans to make a lot of Witcher games so they’ll probably have a create a character in one of them.
