Yennefer's strong, calm, and book-accurate portrayal in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is drastically different from the childish, selfish Yennefer seen in the Netflix show.

Yennefer was finally introduced to The Witcher games franchise in 2015's Wild Hunt. Being a protagonist of the book series as Geralt's true and destined love, it is interesting that CDPR only introduced
