Also with Muslims they do a lot of arranged marriages at an early age. Even in the US I have noticed this among my friends. One high school friend was already married by age 23.

No, it was an original option. If you wanted be an A-hole you could legitimately fight and kill her. It is also a pretty interesting from a character development point of view. Keira is selfish, strongly motivated to survive and get out of the swamps & get her old lifestyle back. If Geralt is mean towards her, doesn't talk sense into her, and blocks her from progressing, she tries to fight her way out. This also implies that she views the sex as a hookup and not that emotional.

I find the whole Yenn vs Triss thing quite clever from the Developers. The two women are well balanced. Triss in W3 has a big character development compared to the books. It's the mature Triss vs the immature Triss. The one in W3 is an approachable mid-western American sweetheart so it has a lot of appeal. Also there is a class issue going on. She is like a social justice warrior and is more from the middle/lower class scheme of things while Yenn is a demanding upper class snob. This can be inferred by the different way they dress. Triss is very poor in Novigrad and is Cinderella girl. She is also far less demanding than Yenn. Also the voice actress they chose is very deliberate. Yennefer sounds posh while Triss sounds like she could be from the American countryside and from an ordinary background. Also a lot of players like hot redheads over hot brunettes too. The majority of book readers (including Meg the youtuber) however prefer Yenn as knowing the character from the books significantly changes one's interpretation of her behavior in W3. Yenn in the books sacrificed and risked a great deal for Geralt. I think most book readers will recognize that she is passive-aggressive or openly aggressive towards Geralt in W3 due to his cheating and 'amnesia' in W1-W2. She is also upset that he cheated on her with her best friend Triss and didn't come back to find her after so many years. She is skeptical about the amnesia thing, she thinks it is a partial excuse. The Amnesia is one of the first things that is briefly discussed in Vizima at the start of the game. Do you guys remember this scene:? The ending of Yenn in Blood and Wine is very subtle and yet very revealing, showing that she has completely left politics and has become a lot more happy and relaxed. The book and game superfans finished Yenn's story really well in the fanmade Farewell to the White Wolf. She is still a bit demanding (that is her personality at the end of the books) during the wedding but has softened a great deal. The epilogue to 'Farewell' reveals that she has softened completely over the years. I think it implies that her bitchyness is mainly due to stress. However for many players Yenn's behavior turns them off. Also Shani and Keira are great and very interesting. They could have been legit romance options with expanded content.

The entire feminist mindset is deeply anti-fertility and remarkably shallow in certain aspects. Consider 'average' men to be at the level of a sub-human, good only for work, conversation, entertainment, and some other practical use. Only award the top 10-1% of men in looks/wealth full personhood. Devalue family/motherhood over independence and financial goals, use up all of the 20s for 'career'. Treat women who don't have a career or make babies before the age of 28 as some kind of loser. Delay childbirth until the final years. This is combined with a high overvaluation of one's attractiveness and an inflated sense of entitlement. All of this is a recipe for lower fertility, higher separation rates.

The "As an 80s dark fantasy" AI Art genre looks like it's just started and it looks awesome to everybody with eyes. I think it may blow up on youtube and maybe even influence film/TV directors. FROMSOFT games are all awesome with this aesthetic.

I'm down to the final 12 hours of the Dance of Dragons and completed approx. 183 hrs of audio over the past couple of months. For the past 12 hrs or so the quality has declined to about the level of Feast for Crows (3.5 out of 5) and I find myself even getting bored from time to time and zoning out despite listening while I'm outside and not really distracted. It's that irrelevant at times. My hunch about GRRM (from watching House of the dragon) running short on ideas and constantly recycling concepts really manifested in books 4 and 5. At least circa 2011 it is evident that he is stuck. He's short on ideas and ways to move characters and the plot forward. There is a lot of procrastination that manifests in various ways. Entire chapters pass with only a small amount of forward momentum, it's like a chronicle of the character (an episode of a say a long -running TV show) rather than a tightly focused aspect of the plot. Books 4 and 5 could have been reduced by a lot. Maybe as much as 40-30% and it would read a lot better.

This is supposed to be an underrated gem of a fantasy game:
