Geralt of Rivia is supposed to be an odd looking albino mutant, instead of the handsome olympian we got in W2 and W3

Because you're anti-social and not used to recognizing people's faces.

Only because the dirty Serb has money.

Which begs the question: if all Serbs are criminals, why are they poor as fuck?
>>
>>320023442

Yeah he is more like in TW1

To be fair I think giving him white eybrows and a less chisseled face would fix it in TW2-3

Actually the really early images from TW3 shows him completely different and less super-model.

>>320023447

I am slav and look like that. Girls like it because they think I am dangerous and a criminal, but I'm really not tbqh, my feet hurt and I just want to go home and play video game

>>320025107
it's the eye liner

makes people who wear it gain roughly 1-2 points in over all attractiveness
>>
>>320025798
Sounds like you're trying to excuse the fact that you're gay and attracted to the man on the left.
>>
>>320025810

They blow all their money instantly on hookers/blow/alcohol/expensive cars because they come from extremely poor backgrounds and have no sense of how to use it.

I think "inhuman or damaged but cool-looking" doesn't really count. They may not be attractive in the sense that you want to sleep with them but they're designed to be interesting but still very eye-catching. Someone like OP's picture, who is a below-average dude with a shitty haircut, is generally not going ot make it in as a protagonist.

>>320022167

Short answer is, because games are designed to be visually stimulating and usually to give the player the ability to step into the shoes of someone more interesting and capable than they are in real life.

Humpty Dumpty there doesn't really inspire a sense of power.

i can see why someone like you would have those kinds of standards
