How in the heck would Ciri not be the main character after the events of Witcher 3? Did anyone actually think she wouldn’t be?

She is the main character toward the end. The story was great and I need to replay it

She's not just the main character towards the end, she is the main character of the story. We play Geralt, who is a side character in Ciri's story.

I never really thought about it like that. Is that how the book series goes? I probably should read those as well

[–] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

kind of, it's more like it starts a geralt's story, but becomes ciri's story. the first two books are all geralt. after that it's about geralt and ciri's relationship. then by the last book we barely even see geralt.

then after the series was finished he started writing more little stories from earlier in geralt's life.

as i said in another comment. it's downright bizarre that ciri doesn't get mentioned until the third game. she almost makes more sense as the protag anyway.
