A developer on The Witcher 4 says that players shouldn't make their mind up about Ciri's role as protagonist until they've had the chance to "fully embrace" her character once the game is out.

Speaking to GamesRadar+, Jan Hermanowicz, engineering production manager on the recent The Witcher 4 tech demo said that "when the game will be out, you'll be able to see for yourself and fully embrace her character, her story. And I think that will be the moment to make opinions and make the calls." In other words, players shouldn't be making up their minds about the CDPR's choice of main character years before getting to play as them.
