    The Witcher showrunners were going to have Geralt and Yennifer have a child. This was also the decision that made Cavill leave the show, which just cemented my choice to not bother with the following season.

    Do what you will with the overall plot line and stories you wanna tell, but god that is such an egregious change that fucks up so much about the character’s motivations since canonically, Witchers are fucking sterile and can’t have kids, but Geralt really wants to be a father. That’s one of the reasons he attached himself to Ciri.

      That is beyond stupid, to the point where anyone proposing it has shown they not only don’t respect the source material, but actively hate it. That is like the central feature of the interpersonal relationships in the books.

      Out of curiosity do you have a source for that? I’ve tried searching but I can’t find anything about this at all.
