"You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books" (www.gamesradar.com)

It's the same bullshit that has ruined hollywood. It's safer to just reboot some bullshit or force a sequel vs. coming up with something new and original.

I'm not saying doing another Witcher game in general is a forced sequel. But using the same damn character is definitely a forced extension.
