If you were infertile and immune to diseases you'd probably have a lot of sex too. but really almost all the sex is optional.

That is why Yennefer is Geralt's true love, their relationship has already extened to a spiritual level + parental love toward Ciri. 


I like to think geralts a new person after he died and the thing he has with triss is more important now. But I can see the draw for Yennefer as well. I'm thinking my scoiatel supporting geralt will get back with her.Cuz you know she's going to be in TW3.

Ignorance is apparently a wonderful thing and full of bliss.  Go check how much women make in the same positions when compared to men.  Or how many positions are occupied by women compared to men when the women are more qualified (speaking of hiring).  Or how many games like 'The Witcher' are made that objectify women.  Find any games or stories that objectify men in the same way?  Can you find ONE that does that in modern culture and is advertised and well-known like 'The Witcher'?  How about just how women are currently being ignored entirely in the various health care debates in the States right now?  Women have had some strides in equality, but anybody who thinks they're remotely equal to men is just laughably obtuse and ignorant.

[/quote]

Women and men earn the exact same as each other in the exact same positions.

Those "studies" are total BS. Rather than actually saying "a male nurse and a female nurse each make X amount" they instead say things like "in the health care field". Which is a skewed perception as more men choose to become doctors than nurses. And more women choose to become nurses than doctors. And yes, it is a choice, nobody forces them to become nurses. So then the studies will ignore the fact that there are more male doctors and that doctors (regardless of gender) make more money than nurses, and then say ".. in the health care field" as a broad brush stroke to make it seem like women are being unfairly paid.

Also, just FYI, it is ILLEGAL to pay men and women different salaries for the same job.


Point of reference for this I'm doing an Honours Bsc in Social Policy and Criminological Studies. So we've covered these "reports" in great length.


Finally, The Witcher series is why feminism should exist? Heaven forbid there is a story about an established heterosexual male character who decides his own fate, regardless of what other people think. We can't have that, can we?


Reply to this or don't, I've said what I have to say.

It's 2012 humanity is evolving beyond the point of letting individual physical charactistics influence the opinion one may have of said person. You can see it if you look to the younger generation, and how the spirit of unifing is getting stronger and stronger around the world. The best part its happening in almost every avune of human reality. Just look at our retake movement. Yes, the cause is pretty trival compared to the ones I make about the world, but the point I'm trying to make is that this growing urge to unify against a common felt injustice is growing at an exponential rate.

So why keep kicking a dead horse? This goes for everything and anything that favors or harms any thype of physical characteristic. Everything needs to and will become equal. Why? Because Space Magic ^.^

Well I didn't care for the Witcher 2 much, but the company has been doing a good job by their fans.

bioware isn't bioware anymore. They are EA/ bioware. Much worse than that is that they have forgotten where they came from. Lost their identity. Sacrificed their souls to the god of greed and avarice.

Yep, Geralt lost his most memory as well as Yennefer(according to ending in TW2), but true love never dies. Triss would very likely to broker her heart and get back to Yennefer's best friend as in novels. The Witcher series has established so many wonderful and mature charaters in though both novels and games, which is too hard for Bioware to catch up in only a trilogy.

I'm reserving judgement until they put out an rpg without a set character. I just can't play set characters (male or female). I have watched the cinematics for both Witchers and I quite liked them even though the children models scared me lol.

Feminism is bull**** because it is just another form of segregation and is a narrow viewpoint of equality purely from one perspective. Even worse it's one where the women following it don't even realise the inherent segregation.

If science would not be divided into particular fields, there would never be any scientific progress.

And IMO that's what such opinions are all about - let's pretend we're all happy and equal and have the same rights, hopefully thanks to using such PC stance and calling any attempts to improve lives of any opressed group as "segregation", nothing will change, since you can't help everyone at the sime time, so you have to choose object of focus.

If the set character is stopping you from playing it you really need to force yourself to play through tw2 once and see for yourself. There are a lot of positives to having a semi defined character in a narrative.

CD Projeckt seems to be doing good, Now if only they can make a game with a character creator for the main game and allow s/s romance options I'd jump onto their bandwagon in a heartbeat.

Right now Bethesda seems to be the one to go with. They have both male/female character creator. You can now have s/s marriages though no real interactive story but maybe that will change in the future.

Bioware has grown too egotistical from too much success and no backlash or people leaving. It's sad but they brought this on themselves.

Furthermore, I really can not understand why criticizing TW series for insulting feminism?
The series has successfully established Philippa Eilhart - the most independent and powerful female character I ever seen in a video game. Her determination and strategy puts Wrex in shame. Her ambition and manipulation skill make Aria T'Loak likes an teenager.

Indeed. I find it odd that neither of them responded to the reproductive rights issues that women still face in this Western society, bastion of equality and rainbows.

Shall we bring up rape and how it's primarily a violent act against women? How everyone's gut-reaction to a rape trial is to blame the victim? How it's just as prevalent in Western culture as it is in third-world countries? Shall we bring up the overwhelming number of untested rape kits in our law enforcement?

The entire world has a long way to go, even us.

Eh. They have some decent business practices, but I can't get into The Witcher 2 enough to finish it. I'd be more inclined to agree if/when they make a universe that I can really get involved in.

bethesda games have no story though and their characters are just awful.I enjoy playing them because of the whole exploration thing, but it's really apples and oranges.

 The Witcher series sucks. You can't even change your appearance or play as a female.

Not to mention that Bethseda games are broken all to hell on release and all of them have gltiches that never get fixed.

Indeed, false promises, freaking "star child", "16 RGB color coded ending" and the invincible "artisic - intergity" has already marked Mass Effect 3's position in RPG history----------------------------"Things You Do Not Do in the Ending of a trilogy!"

She's a character from novels. And like I said, novels' writer is left winger and often introduced feminist issues. 

And with first sentence, go ask OP - he tried to offend one gamer who said that 'Witcher 1 with its sex cards was juvenile' by saying she's "getting into some stupid Feminisme BS".

BTW, as I see he removed it from the original post.

That's just plain ignorant.  I suppose you think 98% of the games that come out suck then?

The actual number is only 95% :P

Great developer for sure but i don´t like the witcher universe. Played Witcher one and it didn´t leave any emotional mark for me. Everything feels forced and the characters feel kind of bland. Dark themes without meaning. I will probably try out TW2 when its Sale but I truly hope they develop some new IP sometime with a new Universe that feels more Organic and has Characters i can care about.

Sorry, her name only metioned in TW1 and her character is established in TW2, by the CDPR then accepted by Novel writer. So, before making any further judgment, please try to read the novel or play though TW series.:unsure:

TW2 was slightly better, but the characters are still pretty bland.
