No, this is literally the problem with post peak franchise work. Take an established character and shit all over them, in particular one who dies a heroes death fighting for his friends and family. Tv show already did this by having him try and kill Ciri so future work will be just as bad or worse.
Heart of Stone DLC at least managed to add on some minor lore points with the character and set up that missed romance Vesemir had with the old woman you meet at the auction, but I wouldn't see that stopping woketards still trying to spin some gay angle with his other life since witchers are immune to a lot of diseases therefore "monkeypox, hoe!" in their minds.
even one of the original Master Witchers
This would still get done badly since the original witchers were mutated humans that sorcs had experimented on in order to fight monsters. So it would be well within game logic and woke logic to play such a character as an oppressed human [black of course] who some sorc [who will of course be white] took as a slave then "forcefully" changed "similar" to the Yennifer story in the Netflix version despite how retarded that was since Yen chose to become a sorc and knew what she was giving up, even though the tv show still changed that part of things and flat out gave her a hysterectomy.

I'd prefer it the other way around as a reference to our creator Yakub.
Buddy, there are hundreds of years of history in the Witcher lore they could make a game with. If the devs could make a good game they'd make a good game.
Don't sperg out on me because the devs won't make a good game. Obviously a prequel with Vesemir would be good, if they made it a good game.
You don't have to write a fuckin thesis on how the devs could fuck it up. It is known.
there are hundreds of years of history in the Witcher lore
No shit, that's why I pointed this bit out:
Vesemir is described as being one of the oldest witchers in the world, possibly old enough to have seen the witcher castle built. That's a lot of years to inject DEI shit into despite existing game material like his affair with the woman Geralt meets at the auction house in the Hearts of Stone DLC.
Geralt is close to 100, he only has white hair because of a second round of mutations he went through, it's not an age thing since Eskel is the same age despite looking like he's in his 30s/40s. They both went through the Trial of the Grasses at the same time and age.
Vesemir is old enough to actually look old for a witcher. The games take place from 1270 to 1275, the 13th century. The castle the Wolf school use was built in the 11th and Vesemir saw it happen. He's possibly 200 or even 300 years old meaning he could still be fucked over with a prequel game using him as a character since many fans have been asking for more Vesemir content for years, and worse for him to be played by Mark Hamill.
Speaking of, this was already attempted and failed badly.
The Witcher: Monster Slayer
The Witcher: Monster Slayer was a free-to-play, augmented-reality RPG game for mobile devices, developed and published by Spokko, which was part of CD PROJEKT RED Capital Group. The game was released on July 21, 2021. In December 2022, it was announced that the game would be shutting down on June 30, 2023.
Regarding Vesemir:
Vesemir is a young, inexperienced witcher, who was injured during an attempt to fulfill a contract. He is depicted as a pale young man with black shoulder-length hair and golden cat-like eyes. He wears a dark leather armor over a turquoise gambeson.
The player character finds him unconscious and brings him to a herbalist in Dol Tirthana. After waking up, Vesemir tells the player what happened and hands over the conctract he had failed to fulfill. Later, in the Intruder, the player can ask Vesemir for help in defeating the monster and he gives them a special potion.
According to the glossary, Vesemir often points out the mistakes of both the witcher adepts' and their instructors', but he is convinced that he himself would not be suitable for a teacher.
Despite going on to be one of the longest running teachers of the Wolf school because "tee-hee, irony" that so many prequel writers just can't help insert into media as they have no original thinking other than spamming references and memes.
