I saw a screenshot of Ciri's face in the Witcher 4 trailer, they really gave her a butterface didn't they.
Like even with her scars in 3, she was beautiful, just playing as Geralt made me seeing her less for partner in a sexual sense, more beautiful daughter I wanted to cuddle after slaying a monster lol.
Anyway the inability to just have beautiful women presented in games when they were there in previous years old games does not instill confidence this will be anything more than lackluster.
Some are explaining her looks as "aging". Yeah, because nobody ages beautifully, not even in fantasy land.
I haven't kept up with any changes to the lore, if any, but her using signs and potions was strange to me. Ciri was already OP, being able to teleport anywhere at will, even in combat, so I wonder why they're going with that. Unless... they're going with a "she lost her powers" route, because of what shed did to stop the White Frost, but that would mean having to undergo the Trials of the Grasses which the other witchers were (at least somewhat) against. Especially Lambert.
Whatever the case, little to no faith in a new witcher sadly, no matter the protagonist.
Just point out how they went over-the-top in beautifying Geralt. Compare Witcher 1(which is more true to the books) and Witcher 3, where he gets hit with the hollywood model stick.
I'm not surprised they uglified Ciri in the least, but damn is it depressing to see.
Geralt in Witcher 3 is a model? This is the first comment I've ever seen about this. He's just an extremely fit guy, which naturally enhances looks.
