Its not that sudden, Ciri was playable in Witcher 3 at times and the ending that has to be canon for her to be the W4 Protag leaves Geralt alive and old, and if you count B&W the owner of a vineyard where he can chill with his girl of choice, so they don't even need to kill him off
"He's old and hangs out in Toussaint now, he sends Ciri letters" would be easy to do
Well obviously Geralt survives in the end of witcher 3 and most likely will be alive in 4, but what I meant is that they might kill him in the new game like they did with Vesemir in Witcher 3. They don't need to, and I hope they don't, but it would be kind of an easy plot device so there's a chance. But at this point it's just speculation anyway.
My main point was more in line that some people just don't like change and that would be enough to make them oppose Ciri as the main character.
Witcher 3 had multiple endings, and he dies in one of them
I heard somewhere that I think CDPR said even that ending there is a way Garalt could still survive. I don't remember what the ending is, but also it doesn't really matter because they can do what they want with him.
