Like this: I woke to news of a cool-looking Witcher game?
Isn't female witcher technically a witch? π€
I don't think so.
I think being a Witcher is a distinct moniker In universe for the training/vocation of hunting magical monsters.
The usual male analogues in media for witch are wizards and/or warlocks

I hate how everything has to be stupid culture war nonsense these days.
I'll probably get the game but be disappointed I don't get to play as Geralt.
I'd also be disappointed to get a new Horizon game where I don't get to play as Aloy. Does that make me a misandrist?

Its only woke when it doesn't succeed.
To name two of way too many examples:
Baldurs gatev woke until it was a hit.
Dustborn, still woke cause it flopped.
The grifters have never been more obvious than now.
I don't think I'll ever understand why people have a problem with a female protagonist. I'm a girl and my fave games ever all involve playing as male protagonists. One of the core essences of playing videogames is escapism, to be someone that you're not, I don't see what's immersion breaking about it. I've seen the trailer and I'm hyped!

I started the Witcher 3 twice. Got bored with it both times. Seeing the trailer for the Witcher 4 is actuslly making me go back to finish the Witcher 3.
