Doug Cockle, voice actor for Geralt in The Witcher series, argues that the choice of Ciri as the main character in The Witcher 4 is not a 'woke' decision, but rooted in the narrative established in Andrzej Sapkowski's books. He emphasizes the complexity of Ciri's character and the potential for storytelling in the new trilogy. Cockle urges critics to read the books to understand the decision and dismisses the label of 'woke' as a misinterpretation of the story's direction.
If you think it's woke, read the damn books--they're good, first of all. And secondly, you won't think it's so woke anymore.
There's nothing woke about it. [Ciri]'s a cool character from The Witcher, and they're gonna focus on that character, and that's awesome.
If you read the books, then you understand why CD Projekt went down this avenue... There's a whole rich world of stuff to explore with Ciri.
We've seen the end of Geralt's journey... I celebrate Ciri and the fact that she's the protagonist of The Witcher 4.
