One looks like some real person you could find walking around the street the other looks like some idealised waifu from someone living in their parents basement.

Also I don't get the point....

 

[MMaRsu]

One is a game, one is a tech demo.....

 

[Little Mac]

I wouldn't bang either of them.

 

[Cakeboxer]

Depends on how many beer i'm allowed to drink and if a have a paper bag.

How about now?

 

[DeepEnigma]

Honestly I don't agree at all. The Fable girl is cute, looks like a real person, and we have seen her with multiple facial expressions that all look believable. I honestly think that all it took for Ciri to look like an Ogre was just scowling and lowering her eyebrows. You see the same expression for Fable girl up above while blocking the sword but it actually looks normal. I think Ciri's character design is actually dumb as well with the white hair and a full container of mascara on each eye and collagen lips. It honestly looks ridiculous. I think she'll be a wooden character that no one can possibly care about, and can't emote well at all. I can see Fable girl being an endearing character if it actually has good writing and story. Her face actually works as a human face.

Fanboy evangelism to a whole new level.

Another vote for Ciri. Appreciate the participation, thanks.

 

[Rickyiez]

I'm sorry but whoever that draw this kind of comparison can only be regarded as tasteless and dumb. Ciri looks better by a thousand mile it's not even comparable. Fable girl doesn't even looks like a girl to begin with wtf.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

To assess the better one, we need to see them without clothes, you know, topology and such.

Here maybe this will help. Give them Bags for their Heads

That was a little rude. I may disagree with you, but I totally understand where you're coming from with your opinion.

Ciri did have them hips and that walk tho,

 

[NeverYouMind]

Why are you comparing cinematics shots? This is a character model:

 

[Zacfoldor]

Witcher 3 Ciri(9) > Tech Demo Ciri(8) > Fable Girl(4) > Reveal Trailer Ciri(2)

 

[Bernardougf]

How about now?

Well now you can concentrate on the nice boobs and general female body featur... oh wait

 

[Topher]

The standard seems to be "must have a pulse"

 

[Raven117]

Yeah, she can't

She looks like the women John Wick kills in John Wick 2. Claudia Gerini

 

[seething left]

Define "better", they both look fine to me.

do you like fish dicks?

 

[Pagusas]

I like Ciri's look (at least in the new trailer, didn't like her first trailer appearance)
and I think the Fable girl looks ugly.

 

[adamsapple]

do you like fish dicks?

 

[Sooner]

She doesn't look like a man at all. She looks like a normal person, which is completely appropriate for Fable.

Not only does "it" look like a man, it is actually much less hideous as a man.

 

[Negotiator101]

From a technical standpoint who knows, the footage from The Witcher 4 is just an Unreal tech demo and not representative of the final game. Fable is overall more impressive from the small snippets of gameplay they shown, but seems also still really rough.

If we talk about character design, Ciri is mile times better.

What you mean character design? Let's be honest the fable design is a lot more unique and less generic, but I suppose you're referring to visually appealing design?

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Ciri would look better without the white and grey grandma hair. Give nice brown or blonde hair. But still a million times better looking than the Fable dude. Let's face it. That's one manly looking female. There's guys who naturally look more feminine.

[mckmas8808]

Both potato faces. They fucked up Ciri badly.

You can't be serious.............

No poll no answer

Exactly!

My reaction to the question

Looks like a dude who just got off a refugee boat and hasnt bathed in a month.

I'll never be able to unsee this lol

Like common' bro , you sure you're not trolling . If you're actually trolling and trying to bait then yes , you're a smart person because this is entertaining with all the rages .

Outside of your preferences for women cutting their hair short and wearing masculine watches, we have a 100% objective answer. The character is based off of a real life woman, so regardless of what either of us think, she is literally a woman so you're wrong I guess. To me, it looks like they pretty much just scanned in her face without any significant alterations. And they gave her much longer hair, which is usually feminine. Ironically, she has short hair in real life like your version and they changed it.

I don't really know why people seem unable to tell a man from a woman suddenly but honestly not my problem lol.

Did you just assume it's gender?

Lol great poll change

About as relevant as deciding which of their swords you want shoved up your ass.

Her neck is skinny and feminine.

The in-game model has the thick neck of a buck in heat.

That's why it tricks the mind.

 

[Aenima]

If they both traveled to 2025 and went to the same bar, one would be saying: "Thanks for the free drinks guys" and the other "Im not a Sir, Its Ma'am!".

 

[SILKYSMOOTH30FPS]

I see no difference.

I think it's a little weird that you can't stop thinking about a buck in heat lol. I mean, I didn't say it. I see a girl.

They really nerfed Witcher 3 Ciri. Probably all those people they poached from Insomniac.

Almost..

But it's actually Nigel Planer, also known as Neil from the popular UK show called The Young Ones

 

[Bernardougf]

I like masculine woman please agree with me. The Thread.

 

[bbeach123]

If fable keep the mc then its gonna be another 3 milions players in the first month and sorry no sales numbers game again.

 

[GymWolf]

Even botox mom ciri is better than fable chick, but i got accustomed to fable chick so i have no problems if we end up having her as protagonist, i think she fit the british hillbilly hero role pretty well.

They definitely glowed up a little compared to the very first trailer.

 

[Punished Miku]

Imagine this without the makeup. That's her actual face.

How about now?
