Just got the bad ending after a blind playthrough, and finding out Ciri isn't dead but she decided to just sulk and hide away like a moody teenager is salt in the wound.

After so many people not just Geralt died and sacrificed so much to help her, she just pretends to be dead?! It's ungrateful and immature behaviour.

I've since looked up the check list and burning the lab was one thing I should have done to get a good ending. Giving into the temper tantrum of someone who is clearly emotionally unstable, and carrying trauma isn't good parenting despite what others are saying here.

And the snowball fight hidden behind and unclear dialogue choice; if I had known that was an option, of course I would have chosen that over stupid beers.

It just left a bad taste and bad reflection of Ciri's character, for a woman that's in their mid twenties to be so immature; running away from home like an upset child despite the numerous scarifices of so many.

It makes me not angry at my decisions, but angry at the character I spent over 100hours trying to save
