Geralt the slave
True to the books, The Witcher 3 delivers our favourite feminine warrior, servant of witches in its third and final instalment. Playing in the impersonal third person view, we follow the witcher Geralt of Rivia as he is manipulated and used by the heroines who play the main role in the story. The overall quality of the game is above average, with the combat (without mods) being average against monsters and below average against human opponents. Magic, iron swords and potions are the weapons with which Geralt does his mistresses biddings. As in the books, the main story line is quite cringe and boring with plentiful of negative stereotypes and empowerment messages. Some of the side quests were actually quite nice and enjoyable, but overall the game failed to engage me with any of its characters, least of all the main one. Despite having read the books and knowing the author is a man, while I was playing I couldn't help myself thinking that The Witcher is exactly what I would expect a woman to write (having known a few female feminist writers), so it is not surprising it found a great number of female and effeminate fans. Apart from the cringe story and characters the character and item levelling is a chore that really gets in the way. Luckily mods got rid of this major negative point, as well as improving combat and adding other neat things. So a great thanks to the modders. It is a real shame about all the political activism, which took away too much of what I might have otherwise enjoyed. But... if you like magic, feminine and negatively stereotyped men and empowered super-women I highly recommend this game. If on the other hand you know what H.E.M.A. means and are not down with current trends around gender politics and stuff you will both laugh and cringe your way through the game, if you choose to play it. Despite the engine upgrade and some great mods I see The Witcher 3 as the worst of the three games in the series.
