    It’s like this in the books as well, it almost feels like a harem anime at times. Women just throw themselves at him.

      I think you underestimate the attraction of somebody who is proven to be infertile and immune to all STDs in the middle ages. Its basically a completely risk free one night stand.

      My favourite part of the books is how everyone thinks and assumes Geralt is an emotionless mutant, and he plays up that image. meanwhile he’s the most capricious, emotional child when he’s upset or hurt lol

        Imagine what a drama queen he would be without the Witcher mutations. No wonder his mother gave him away.

      I feel like way too many “slice of life” games do this that it might as well be a trope. Everyone wants to bang the protagonist.
