[Spoiler]Right in the feels

Im just going to start off by saying there are going to be spoilers in this post so just be aware.

Witcher 3 is full of great story and twists and turns I have to say that this moment really stayed with me and made me choke up slightly. I am sure Vesemirs faith and even Bloody Barons story were very powerful, but for me personally it was this moment of when Geralt finally meets Ciri that I found really touching.

The moment where Geralt hesitates to go in and this powerful image of him being so close yet so far.. Him approaching Ciri and you can see that this man – mutant, who has been trained to have no emotions or feelings is completely torn with pain and does not want to accept the faith.. How he grabbed her and rocked her as if trying to bring her back whilst at the same time he was not ready to let her go.

I truly believe this was the most human moment for Geralt that he had ever had. The loss of Ciri who he considered to be basically his daughter was too much, even for him. It really felt that all 3 games lead up to this very moment, for Geralt it was always it seemed about Ciri, not Yen or Triss or Wild Hunt or the World. And i think in that moment CD Projekt red really captured that moment beautifully. I mean it was so predictable but yet you went along with it and completely were taken back by how much emotions can such a simple moment contain.

The flaskback just completed by just showing that Ciri is just a little girl for Geralt and she is everything for him.

Amazing moment, really well done and thank you for bringing that to us CDPR!
