yes the witcher games are fun enough ig, and the worldbuilding seems pretty solid for a fantasy world imo, but fuck... i finished watching one of the w2 paths and if you take a couple of steps back so that “noble and kind Geralt” doesn’t obscure 80% of your field of view, it’s as racist, misogynistic and homophobic (this one rarely as there were like 1.5 non-cishet characters from what i’ve seen - but very effectively) as its peers. pretty disappointing

#i feel like i had a very solid pre-built opinion about this story and world #formed by what i've seen of w3 and the series #and it prevented me from paying enough attention #i kept automatically comparing w1 and w2 to got and by the end i frankly barely saw a difference #still going to watch w3 let's go😔✊#maybe yennifer is a big enough bitch (honorific) to make everyone behave #you really don't have to care/#my commentary #the witcher/#i didn't even feel anything when he&roche murked henselt all my anger was directed at the writers instead #true hatred will pierce the 4th wall and kill asshead creators instantly. or how does that saying go
