"You can't just have Geralt for every single game."

I mean... Yes. You literally can.

Mario, Sonic, Zelda, Metroid, Kirby... You can create infinite video games with the same main character over and over again. Its like an infinite money glitch if the character is popular and well liked.

The difference is that none of those characters had their stories wrapped up.

Geralt's story was wrapped up in Witcher 3. That was the whole point.

I felt similar about people wanting MC back in Halo.
