However, Triss' personality is way better. She's dedicated, faithful and gentle. She knows what's important for her, and she does everything for people and things she cares for. You can see it in this mission (and she has a great voice - which is very important) Yen brags too much. There's something selfish in her and she uses others (including Geralt). I don't feel she's very trustworthy, which is really bad IMHO. She's a cold calculating person and you never know if she charms Geralt for her personal use or for a real relationship. -------------- In the Witcher series, Yen looks really good. I like her acting (at least what I saw in the trailer). She looks really promising. On the other hand, Triss' actress looks bland, and that's a bit annoying. It's interesting how the developers wrote and designed these two women to be different and reflect player preferences. I have seen forum threads where fans debated a lot about who is better. Yenn is an entitled yet faithful feminist and Triss is a conservative independent woman. I do agree with you that the dialogue and acting for Yenn is better than for Triss. The game's preferred romance (and book romance) is Yenn. I heard that the book has a Triss romance but it shifts towards Yenn. This makes me wary as the TV series, which is based on the books has hired a quite unattractive woman for Triss! In terms of looks, both character models are beautiful however Yenn is better overall. I like Keira a lot (even though she's basically just a casual sex partner) and she's basically Christy in computerized form... In my mind though, the best love interest for Geralt is indeed Yenn. He seems to appreciate her challenging ways and that seems to suit him. In real life however, a woman like Yenn is not fully reliable as you say and her loyalty could deteriorate as her love is highly conditional. From what I've heard, the book lore has Yenn being powerfully faithful to Geralt which doesn't seem to match the personality of the game Yenn. Quote

Here's a good explanation to why. I haven't watched much anime since high school. Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop, and GTA stand out most in my mind. Later on there was the Ghost in the Shell show and some others that I don't remember right now. Quote

Because if this shit was dealt with when the Las Vegas shooting happened. IMHO it is not mental illness that is the main issue, but the quantity and ease of obtainin firearms in this country and how powerfully they are linked to our culture. These routine mass murders are what we purchased with with our freedoms...and I don't see it ever changing in any significant way in the near future. In Australia a single mass shooting (Port Arthur) was sufficient to create political action which shows how different the attitudes of other countries are. TBH I am probably the wrong person to provide you comfort on this- 9-11 didn't have much effect on me. Quote
CandleVixen Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I’ll be happy if the dialog moves from talk and rhetoric to action. Yes, gun control is the top priority. I agree it is a huge problem in the US; I’ve always thought that though. my brain is jumbled lately (old age) and I’ll shut up before i start pissing people off. Quote
Stromboli1 Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 It's crazy how the shootings in Chicago get very little to no news and political outcry, but these mass shootings do. The Chicago statistics are crazy. Don't get me wrong as both things are terrible though. Quote
CandleVixen Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I think it may have to do with how many clicks and views they can get with over zealous click bait? I hate that that I even typed that. Quote

They need to be equal opportunity in calling out things, then this country can finally move on to fix things for the better. Quote
Cult Icon Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Banning guns in the US is about as feasible as banning bacon! Quote
Stromboli1 Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I'm not advocating for banning guns, just pointing out the political hypocrisy. Quote

I’d like to add that ElPaso and Dayton were only 2 of the 9 shootings that happened in a week!!! That is completely insane!! No they can’t. And the powers that be will not even broach the subject. Crocodile tears at press conferences to show compassion, then on to bashing, salting, and shading the rest of the world and our allies. Quote

No..... no they don't, and if in the off chance they do, they probably work in some business where Corporate Social Responsibility is part of the staple diet. You just can't tell people when they can take time off as it infringes on their rights, and that's just not cool man. This about sums up the group...
