Interesting. Death march was a bit too much for me in the beginning so I played most of the campaign in Blood and Broken Bones and the main missions were all pretty easy. I think I ultimately switched to death march because by the end I had optimized the fun out of the combat loop.

I agree, but I liked the pacing of it. Ciri’s fights were pretty fun, unchallenging as they were. The fact that they were pretty sparse and short probably helped

Also in the main story. At least in the “canon” ending

Because they started building that up in The Witcher 3 nine years ago ?

They “reappropriated”, and re-wrote, a ton of french words. As is their right, because all words are made up anyway
