      In The Witcher 3 you get to play as Ciri for short segments but be warned enemies will yell nasty gendered insults at her while she fights.

      The Witcher 3 does to Ciri what Arkham City did to Catwoman. Thugs yell “bitch” and “whore” and sexually harass both women as you play them.

      Also the "it's realistic for enemies to sexually harass female characters” excuse is nonsense in fantasy games filled with ghouls & wraiths.

      Dear gaming industry: If you want to appeal to women maybe consider not having your game yell “bitch" and "whore” at us while we’re playing.

      Enemies in Witcher 3 yell gendered insults at the playable female character but insults thrown at the male lead are decidedly not gendered.

          Enemies call Geralt “freak” & “mutant’ due to fictional prejudice against magic. When they call Ciri “cunt” it’s rooted in real life sexism.

          @femfreq nope... she's a fictional character. Therefore it's fictional sexism too. (And the insults hurled at Geralt abs elves is racism).

          @Dani3po @femfreq Birth Of A Nation. Clearly racist as it depicts racism as a good thing, with the racists as heroic.

          @Dani3po @femfreq in fact... the original Witcher game - as great as it is - went WAY too far with its sex cards.

          @Dani3po @femfreq but sexism from fictional characters does not necessarily make the work of art or the writer sexist themselves.

          @femfreq Yet, in almost all video games, men suffer most or all of the violence, insults and stereotypes. Where's your outrage at that?

          @femfreq why do you exist. No one seems to care about these types of issues in gaming culture except the people who dont play them.

          @femfreq To imply ANY insult to a women would be appropriate instead of " gendered " insults is as bad. What insults are you suggesting?
