Hell yeah

2018-09-11 18:13:35 UTC  

The whites were forced under after years of black oppresiveness

2018-09-11 18:13:42 UTC  

And so was born

i already know the story of X, thats a weak argument for changing the lore of an established world/franchise with both games and books that are similiar. a spin off would only hurt the brand

2018-09-11 18:19:09 UTC  

the games arent technicallty cannon but they are lore friendly and happen after the books

2018-09-11 18:19:17 UTC  

It's not a spin-off. It's the story of the books. The Witcher 3 is technically a spin-off by your logic

2018-09-11 18:19:32 UTC  

Oh ok

2018-09-11 18:20:08 UTC  

Ok but wouldn't it be better to not know how the story ends

2018-09-11 18:20:20 UTC  

in this case i would consider a spin-off/revamp/retelling to be one in which they change races,languages,settings,lore etc

2018-09-11 18:20:38 UTC  

Sure

2018-09-11 18:20:53 UTC  

But I mean if they're sticking to the books what's the problem

2018-09-11 18:21:19 UTC  

thats the thing they are not sticking to the books by making ciri black

2018-09-11 18:21:23 UTC  

Have you read the books and don't like the ending or something in the books story?

2018-09-11 18:21:42 UTC  

But you said earlier ,"after they said they are gonna follow the books strictly, so strict that they are gonna have geralt not have a beard, because he supposedly hates beards"

2018-09-11 18:22:00 UTC  

and if they were to do so they would need to justify it with something other than virtue signaling

2018-09-11 18:22:12 UTC  

Ok I understand your issue now

2018-09-11 18:22:16 UTC  

And I agree

2018-09-11 18:23:21 UTC  

That's pretty dumb if it's just to please people's "racism" alerts

2018-09-11 18:23:36 UTC  

geralt having a beard in the games can be justified, in the games Yen or Triss (cant remember who) asked him why he grew a beard seeing as he never liked them and then he comments "i have kinda gotten used to it"

2018-09-11 18:23:46 UTC  

small change easily justified and explained

2018-09-11 18:24:16 UTC  

This doesn't make sense

2018-09-11 18:24:30 UTC  

They want to stick to the books, but completely change a character

2018-09-11 18:24:36 UTC  

...

2018-09-11 18:24:42 UTC  

Wot

2018-09-11 18:25:26 UTC  

haha no man , i think i confused you, the game largely sticks to the lore of the books and add to it in a way where it would be fittin and lore friendly.

2018-09-11 18:25:52 UTC  

Netflix/The producers of the SERIES said they are gonna follow the books strictly

2018-09-11 18:26:47 UTC  

so i was using their statement against them, being so strict to the lore that geralt will be clean shaven, but then 5min after that saying they are gonna make a MAJOR character black/not part of the lore

2018-09-11 18:26:59 UTC  

cuz ciri is explained in the books to be pale and white

2018-09-11 18:27:11 UTC  

No I understand that completely

2018-09-11 18:27:28 UTC  

I get you

2018-09-11 18:27:32 UTC  

sorry if i confused you hahaha

2018-09-11 18:27:43 UTC  

I wasn't don't worry XD

2018-09-11 18:27:43 UTC  

hopefully you now get what i was saying

2018-09-11 18:27:47 UTC  

Completely

2018-09-11 18:27:52 UTC  

That's why I said it's stupid

2018-09-11 18:28:02 UTC  

Cause I understand why you're annoyed now

2018-09-11 18:29:36 UTC  

yeah, i love the witcher, would defend anything that SJW;s try to fuck up. for example even tho im not a huge star wars fan i kinda feel the pain of having someone fuck up childhood/gaming/movie memories

2018-09-11 18:31:24 UTC  

Same, It was such a shake-up in the industry. After playing it I've never really had the same investment in any other game

2018-09-11 18:31:42 UTC  

That's why I was so excited for the TV series. But now...

2018-09-11 18:32:02 UTC  

Mxm. Another dream crushed I guess
