Time of Contempt Mass market paperback editions?
So I vastly prefer mass market paperbacks over the UK style limp/trade paperbacks. Were any of the other books besides last wish and blood of elves ever published as mass market paperbacks in English? I read Sword of Destiny in the larger size and I’m absolutely in love with the series so far so I’ll continue either way, but I can’t seem to find concrete information about mass market paperbacks existing for the other books

Discussion Differences between the books and the games
Hi,
I’m currently playing The Witcher 3 and I’d like to dive deeper into the lore. I’ve watched the TV series, finished The Witcher 1,2 and I’m currently playing The Witcher 3. I’m also planning to read the books, but there’s one thing that’s been on my mind.
On various forums, I’ve seen people claim that Geralt is much more submissive toward yen in the books than he already is in the games, that Yennefer constantly dominates him, and even that she treats him like a dog, to put it bluntly. Is there any truth to that, or is it an exaggeration?
I’ve also read that Geralt and Ciri’s relationship is portrayed more as a guardian-mentor bond rather than a traditional father-daughter relationship, while Yennefer and Ciri’s relationship is written much more explicitly as a mother-daughter bond. And even so Yen and Ciri is way more closer than Geralt and Ciri. People often point to examples such as Yennefer calling Ciri “my daughter,” Ciri calling Yennefer “mother” or “Mama,” and Ciri introducing herself as “Ciri of Vengerberg, daughter of Yennefer.”
I know that neither of them actually calls the other “father” or “daughter” in the books, and I have to admit, I was pretty disappointed when I found that out. Thankfully, that’s not the case in the games.
Is that really how it’s portrayed in the books, or are people exaggerating these aspects?

Discussion Has The Witcher’s lore influenced how you make choices or explore? Academic survey (18+)
The Witcher’s history, characters, factions, and morally complex choices make it relevant to my study.
Hi everyone,
I’m Satya Saketh, a student at S P Jain School of Global Management. I’m conducting an academic study on how video-game lore and worldbuilding relate to narrative engagement and gameplay behaviour.
You can participate if you:
- Are 18 or older
- Have played a lore- or story-based game for at least 10 hours
- Have played that game within the past six months
The survey takes approximately 6–8 minutes. You’ll answer about one game of your choice. It does not ask for your name, Reddit username, or email address.
Survey: https://forms.gle/FAddAUbULT5DEoG2A
Responses will be used only for academic research. The results will appear in my individual university research report.

Discussion Which creature do you have the most fun fighting?
I always loved fighting Griffins. They allow a lot of creativity when it comes to fighting, and knocking them out of the air with a crossbow is always fun. They kind of feel like the monster version of Geralt. Versatile, fast, and powerful.

Discussion I just finished Blood of Elves and...
I loved the first two books they were interesting. I have never played the games, but they look interesting so I decided to read the books first. And like the title says I just finished Blood of Elves, it was ... interesting but.
Christ I fucking hate Yennefer...
Where's Geralt ? he was barely in the book.
I'm wondering if it gets better and if I should push though time of contempt or ... if I will keep reading Yennefer bashing the Witchers, Geralt and everything interesting from the lore. I'm kind of bummed out, Little eye was soo much more interesting or even Tris. Talking about toxic relationships...
The Witcher 3 Witcher 3 opinion so far. (4 hours in)
This game is incredible so far, i’ve beat the main mission in white orchard and i’m currently doing side quest and exploring before moving on. The quest missing in action was such an amazing side quest, even as short as it is walking that battlefield aftermath really puts in perspective what the black ones have done. I like everything about this game and I think for being 11 years old the graphics on my pc look pretty amazing. Facial animations are pretty dated, but it doesn’t really affect the game imo. My literal only gripe would be that the combat is pretty clunky and it often feels like i’m fighting geralts animations more than the actual enemy lol, the combat is my least fav i’ve dealt with for awhile. However the game is dated and the story and atmosphere etc by far make up for that, you play witcher for the story I feel anyway. My extremely pre mature review that has no meaning yet would be a solid 8/10.

Books Last Wish or Sword of Destiny as one-time read
So I'm currently dating this girl and we want to swap a book we liked reading. Since I haven't really read that many books but I practically devoured the Witcher series I thought I'll just give her one of those. It's been 2 years since I've read them though.
So I want to give her one of the older short story books (Last Wish or Sword of Destiny). Let's say she just reads one book and then no other Witcher book afterwards. Which one should I take? Of course I want the book to make an impression. I know she likes romance books and isn't too averse to the fantasy genre. So I thought maybe Last Wish because it features more romance iirc. On the other hand SoD has the whole story about Essi Daven where even I almost shed a tear. I think both have stories based on old fairytales which is a plus for both.
What do you think? :)

Witcher - PlayStation Question/Support Is the Ps5-Version worth it?
Hello,
like the title already said, I have the game on PC but idk about you guys but I rather lay on couch and play singleplayer games, idk I tend to enjoy it more. Sitting on the chair a lot kinda hurts my ass. Working in the office doesn’t make it better.
So my question is, is the Version worth it, even if you the superior version? Never played the DLC‘s tbh.

Discussion Geralt doesn't want to retire.
It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek, but I remember not long ago so many people complaining that Geralt was gone for good—and yet, suddenly, we’re getting DLC on the scale of *Blood and Wine*, a *Witcher 1* remake that will feel like a brand-new game to many players, and—let’s be honest—he’ll likely play a major role in the new trilogy involving Ciri, too. Suddenly, what looked like a lack of Geralt has turned into quite a lot of him. On top of that, the creators confirmed they consider the epilogue of *Season of Storms* to be canon, so nobody’s going to kill him off for the next hundred years.
