It is a one of the witcher potions, I believe that one is the Cat Potion, it helps witchers see even more in the dark, since their eyes already see more in darkness than human eyes.
@@EnejJohhem I kinda like how Shani melds with Geralt better tbh, but witcher 3 never gave us an actual romance with her. She's a stable, and more emotional fit for him and she doesn't use, and mistreat him.
Idk why people not into the idea of ciri being the main character of the next game? They implied at the end of the third game that geralt was retiring and he was still training ciri to be a witcher. If they introduced a new character then it would've ended the whole story that involves the whole game series
@yenneferpokusai7787 I'm a guy and I think ciri is cool af. The first ever witcher that has elder blood? Like come on man. I don't see why they would have that lol.
I assumed since they announced she was gonna be a major part of the new game it just made sense especially because they kind of gave us a taste in the last witcher
Seems like she lost them She went through the mutations and there's no reason to take that risk if you have god powers I'm guessing she might get it back near the end of the game or temporarily or in an expansion
Can’t wait to play it. In Witcher 3 I hated playing as Ciri at first. Then I learned what little moves she had & it became OK. Now imagine playing her with all fighting skills, Witcher magic, & elder blood magic!
I love Ciri and was expecting her to be the main character of the next game, but geralt has a special place in my heart. So i get why people weren't as hyped.
I've played all 3 I already knew that it was going to be ciri and I'm happily part of that other half. we already know Geralt was gonna retire and ciri take over don't mean we need a game for it
@@iaqh Yeah, but Ciri was expected to be the next protagonist. If u played the last game its obvious, its a natural path to the series, and this was before all that bs, thats the difference, makes sense.
The mild reaction that people are complaining about isn’t due to not liking Ciri or understanding the mantle is passed to her, but because it initially looks like it’s Geralt and ends up not being him.
Didnt know how i felt about Ciri at first hut the end of the trailer sold it im hyped for it "Gods!? There are no gods here... just monsters" such a solid line to end the trailer on
Trust me when I say.. Everyone knew who this witcher was and it still sucks 😂😂😂 that's how bad all the games with girl protagonist so far... Very few games have delivered... No one is excited for this witcher without geralt
@@DesiMando_YT Funny how you are talking like you are the majority. Just read the comments and you know that most people are excited. Any fan of the books and games would love to play as Ciri and have her be the protagonist.
She’s literally way way older, why would she sound and look the same and Ciri never ever had her emotions in check, the elder blood makes people notoriously firey
A great idea would be to have a GTA V approach where you can swap characters in realtime in the game (between Ciri and Geralt). Don’t think it’s gonna be like this but would love to have it this way.
Worst choice that. Those characters are never good in these story heavy games. I’d rather actually be a character for a game like this. Think the character creators work in fallout and the elder scrolls. Imagine playing the Witcher 3 as your own character over Geralt. 👎
Why it wouldn’t be a character creator after cyberpunk? People are going to dislike this, it doesn’t matter the reason. Why split your fan base like that??? The crowd had an honest instant reaction…
Honestly, idk if it’s an unpopular opinion, but I wayyyyy prefer character customisation like Cyberpunk, was hoping this would have it but looks like it won’t… it’s a shame.
@@noahleon9650 you were looking for that in a wrong place, you know how series was up until now, it's only logic they will continue with same path. Cyberpunk was new game so they could experiment
I prefer character customization in most games just not ones that are so story and character driven it's very hard to feel attached to your character in these types of games on the top of my head the only game to truely pull it off is cyberpunk but even then it's not perfect.
It’s terrible timing because of the D Plandemic if you know what I mean it’s been such a plague to entertainment the world is tired lol I’m fed up too doesn’t matter tho cuz there’s plenty of new games to play I guess I’m done with Witcher it’s the same disappointment as last of us 2 is what this will be
@@theblueexorcist8731 Nobody cares about who you want to play as. If you're physically attracted to masculine men it's okay, but nobody cares if you want to play a game or not. Maybe instead of playing a story game, you should play a game with character customization?
I have a question, how did Ciri become a Witcher? Wasn't there several endings in the original game, including becoming a queen, dying, etc., or would the game not care about your old choices?

I also like male protagonist but this look good because I know ciri and other stuff about game. If it was new games I would not have bought on first day.
You don't know the fanbase then or the games. Witcher 3 literally has Geralt training Ciri to become a Witcher. REAL Witcher fans are excited as fuck to play as Ciri.

He’s going to be in the game, his voice actor said so a few months ago but confirmed he wasn’t going to be the protagonist. Did say his role was big tho I’m pretty sure.
No one cares. Ciri was obviously the one Geralt passed the torch to at the end of Witcher 3 in the good ending so you clearly never even played it so no one cares what you think
@FALLEN9336 Thats Why I Didnt Played It after Meeting Yennefer never enjoyed it world was congested horse animation and fight animation was dull can't say about story but gameplay vice not good 😑

@@Mojo-w6p I Thought We Always Knew We Would Play As Ciri And She Don't Look That Ugly If I'm Honest To Be Honest I Think People Are Just Hating To Hate
Maybe most of the crowd was as thrown off by her looks as I was when I saw the trailer. That's not how Ciri looks, not even how she would look as she ages. The eyes are different (and it's not just the make up), the chin is different and even her face shape is different.
