Besides, they've already established some of her signature abilities and had people play as her in some of the previous game, kicking the familiarity up an extra notch.

Yep. Ciri isnt the worst choice in the world, I just was hoping I could have played as my own character instead. It will be interesting to see what they do with the story.

Yeah, I'd have preferred making my own character too but, failing that, a great character that's already established in the series and has been a lot of fun playing as so far ain't bad either!

I really hope they don't stick with Ciri gameplay from TW3, I never liked when I was forced to play as Ciri, her abilities was less fun than Geralt signs.

Judging by the video, she'll be behaving more like a witcher, with the two swords, the signs, and the potion quaffing. If they hold to that and also let her keep her "short teleport" move from TW3, I'm looking forward to it 🙂

If they changed the double dodge = roll to double dodge = short teleport, but not as crazy as in TW3 that would be cool, they could also make the whole gameplay more agile than TW3, seems like a good fit for Ciri.
