    Is it just me or is her face a bit weird? Like too much jaw?

    I’d love to play the game as Ciri though, hope they make up a good story, it felt the Wild Hunt was her story, IDK what can top that.

      I agree.

      As someone else pointed out, Geralt looked quite different in the game vs the first cinematic launch trailer.

      So who knows, time will tell. Also keep in mind it’s a new engine

      It looks like they created a monster trying to fit a bunch of features in a face. It’s on all thumbnails, same as clickbait videos. It’s a marketing stunt.

      Reminds me of xiv. It always looks great ingame but half the time their cgi trailers mess up peoples face anatomy

      Her face looks longer to me. I assume they’re trying to make her look more like a real person.

        You’re the one taking it to gooner/sexist territory, us fans of the series know the characters and when the overall face-shape changes but keeps defining features like the scar on her cheek, it’s a little unexpected and strange at first.

          Me, a fan, instantly recognized her and noticed nothing “weird” about her. Caring at all about her jaw shape or whatever intrinsically makes you a gooner.

          And honestly, you’re fucking weird for even responding to me.

        I was not commenting on her attractiveness, just that the defining character features seem to be different. She doesn’t look “older” or less attractive to me from Wild Hunt, just a different person.

        It’s not as bad as when they dropped the voice actor for Sam Fisher in Splinter Cell though.
