How could anyone hate Ciri :c
For me it's not that I hate ciri at all. I completely understand women's complaint that most games have a male protagonist and they can't relate to that. I feel the same way, I like to feel at least somewhat immersed and I can never really get that with a female protagonist. It's not like I don't try either, I just never end up getting into the games I have tried that are like this.
I know it's hard when the story is based on an individual, but I just wish more games had an option so everyone could play who they want to. I don't hate them for this choice, it will just be another game that "isn't for me" in the same way a hyper competitive PVP game "isn't for me" which is fine.
I'm sorry, you're saying you're unable to get into a game simply because it's a female protagonist? If it was a male you'd be fine?
When logic is forsaken, turnabout is fair play.
