Even though all good leftists know this is a false choice. The only correct path is that of Volcel Geralt who gets to chill with Ciri on his vineyard, hunt monsters and sleep under a tree. This is the pinnacle of the Dudes Rock lifestyle.
Fuckboi Geralt is a distant second since he's like 200 years old and should simply not be fucking anyone.
On a similar note, Kazuma Kiryu also doesn't know about sex. Guy just wants to race toy cars.
Gwent is love, Gwent is life.
Somebody made Gwent for Tabletop Simulator and it has this video play on a tablet hidden under the table.
Reminds me of when I played Space Station 13 once and the clown's gimmick was constantly walking around the station constantly asking people if perhaps they wanted to play a game of gwent
doing anything other than playing Gwent and enjoying the company of Dandelion
absolutely plebian
Considering this is /c/games, Triss is obviously the better choice. Mostly because CDPR clearly preferred Triss and spent 2 games giving Triss Yennefer's lines.
In the second game he was with her because she fucked with his mind. That's very literally rape.
Triss, that is.
I only played the Witcher 3 and went with Triss because she seems way more pleasant if you don’t know the backstory. Yennefer seems so cold and manipulative, but you don’t get that she’s doing a lot of what she does for Ciri and that she truly does love Geralt. It makes the story kind of sad at the end.
Personally I prefer Yennefer since I think it's more romantic that way
I prefer Yenn if I say anything more I'm going to get black bagged :volcel-judge:
My buddy did say that Triss kinda gets a raw deal in the show and is better in the book though but idk I never read the books.
I haven't seen the show, but I have read the books and she just isn't very important in them. There's eight books and she's only in like two of them, and she's only even somewhat important in the third book. And even then she's not like an especially major character. I was surprised, because I'd played the games first and there she's probably the most important side character, being a major player and also romance option in all three games. Regis and Zoltan have more page-time than Triss.
Ciri, Yennifer, Triss.....they're all the same woman but with different color hair.
Everyone who expresses their Triss/Yenn opinion on this thread is going to volcel gulag
Classic Beijer bait intended to embarass both people who agree and disagree
Gotta go with Yenn because I desperately seek the approval of women, but only when they withhold it.
Fuckboi Geralt is a distant second since he’s like 200 years old and should simply not be fucking anyone.
To be fair most of the women he hooks up with are too. Both Geralt and them are ridiculously highly educated, have lived 2-3 normal human lifespans, and are completely alienated from everyone else. It'd be weirder if they weren't constantly banging each other. Like who the fuck's a 120 year old sorceress going to hook up with, some guy a fifth her age who can't read andyet still thinks he should be big and strong and in charge of her because they live in a toxic, patriarchal culture? If I were her I'd be jumping on that nice, helpful 90 year old mutant super soldier with his doctorate degree in weird bullshit who shows up once or twice a decade, hangs out for a day or two, then fucks off for several years.
You know, the first time I played games I hadn't read the books, so I barely knew who Yennefer was and was somewhat confused when she was such a major character in the third game. Googled her, saw in the books she was his partner, but that their relationship was weird, and also there was genie magic involved. So I picked Triss, and I like Triss.
But, and I'm not especially qualified to talk about this so take my word for what it's worth, Triss does seem to be playing to a reactionary fantasy. Now I've never read a word on literary criticism, or feminist theory, or critical theory. I wish I had. I wish I had gotten some sort of English degree because they probably would've made me read those sorts of texts. But I haven't, so I'm just a guy poorly regurgitating opinions I once saw someone else have. But, Triss is so submissive to Geralt, to the player. She's just happy to do things his way, pretty much all the time. Yen, on the other hand, won't put up with his, or the player's, shit. Now Yen and Geralt's relationship isn't a good one, just the opposite, and Yen challenges him and manipulates him past the point of reason, but at least her character has some agency.
Of course the best ending is no romance, completely agree. I like it because 1.) it's pretty tragic, breaking up with Yen. I like tragic. and 2.) the romance endings are all straightforward happy endings. Geralt isn't a happy endings sort of guy.
TLDR: Triss is a trad wife male power fantasy.
