I don’t like the Witcher because I want to be faithful to Triss, but as soon as Yennefer shows up, all my player choices are disregarded. 5/10, will not play again.
It’s like this in the books as well, it almost feels like a harem anime at times. Women just throw themselves at him.
Can you blame them?
I haven’t played Witcher or read the books, but in the shows fucking Henry Cavill. Even straight men want to throw themselves to him
Even if I both played the game and saw the series before the book, the game version of Geralt would pop up in my minds eye as I imagined the story. That is, until I got to the sex scenes where Cavill took over.
I pondered if this made me bi, but I quickly realized this is normal behavior for all sexual orientations.
I think you underestimate the attraction of somebody who is proven to be infertile and immune to all STDs in the middle ages. Its basically a completely risk free one night stand.
Can confirm.
Playing through again now. Was faithful last time so this time bring it on!
For those who don’t play the Witcher 3, what does this mean?
There are a lot of beautiful women in Geralt’s orbit, but in my playthrough, I started off romancing Yennifer, but then Triss comes around, sparks fly, and I decided to see if I could be with both of them, seems like something they’d be into. Well, everything is going well, it seems like we might be about to consummate our thruple, things start getting real steamy, and then BOOM, they were just fucking with you, but won’t fuck you. You have to choose. It was such a hilarious and well-executed bait and switch. Though that was just my playthrough.
Ayy, I’m not the only one
In addition to what the others commented, most (all?) of the attractive female lead characters are wearing the MOST RIDICULOUS tops ever. For some reason, women in the world of the witcher prefer shirts that are unbuttoned just in the boob region, or have a DEEP V-cut in them, or are just totally unbuttoned.
Don’t get me wrong, I love boobies as much as the next guy, but so many of the outfits just look impractical - especially for martial characters.
Clearly the work of some seriously thirsty devs.
There is a technical lore reason though, most of the hot women are sorceresses, and can basically change their appearances at will. They tend to be hot women because it makes for easier social lives. Otherwise they are all 90 year old crones.
Most of them are old crones, they make themselves look like this because they are vain.
Ves takes the cake though, since she just runs around with an open shirt all day.
for some reason
I think we know the reason, my friend.
To distract the enemy
Geralt is a magically inclined mutant which is particularly attractive to the other witches as they are 90+ years old as is Geralt so plain human partners are barely more than plaything to them
Yes, also, Geralt is sterile and immune to STDs.
Geralt is a very popular man.
