Anyone who plays through The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt is invited to make a choice between the two great loves of Geralt of Rivia: Yennefer of Vengerberg or Triss Merigold. That decision even informs the game’s farewell to Geralt. However, CD Projekt Red has recently disclosed that players didn’t always get to choose between Geralt’s lovers.
CD Projekt Red co-CEO Adam Badowski told PC Gamer that the option to romance Triss was added late in the game. Until then, the team had been focusing on Geralt’s relationship with Yennefer. But adding Triss back into Geralt’s heart gave the game more personality .
“[The romance with Triss] wasn’t [there] from the beginning,” recalled Badowski. “But at some point we understood that this lack of conflict, personal conflict… There was a lack of something… This decision was made pretty late, but it was great. It was a great decision.”
