Seriously, Geralt is nearly a century old, and for a witcher that's not old at all. If anything, he's still in his physical and mental prime. The guy has decades of experience, some of the best gear he's ever had, and a place like Corvo Bianco to return to whenever he wants. So what exactly would make him retire? I can totally see him spending a few years resting in Toussaint, enjoying some peace for once. But beyond that? Not really. I just can't picture Geralt sitting at home playing Gwent for the rest of his life. Witchering is basically all he's ever known, and despite all his complaining, he genuinely likes helping people. The reason I bring this up is because every time people mention Geralt in The Witcher 4, there's always someone saying "let the man enjoy his retirement" or "he shouldn't have an important role anymore."

And I'm just sitting there like... what?

This is the protagonist of three games. He's also arguably the most important figure in Ciri's life and basically her father figure. Of course he should have an important role. I don't need him to be the protagonist again, but I definitely want to see him doing witcher things. I want to see Geralt hunting basilisks, cutting off monster heads, taking contracts, and still being the legend he's supposed to be. Imagine accepting a contract as Ciri, hearing that another white haired witcher already took the job, and when you finally get there it's Geralt. That would be a thousand times cooler to me than some joke quest where his entire role is sitting at Corvo Bianco waiting to challenge you to Gwent...

Am I the only one who can't see Geralt retiring?
