So, let me get this straight, Geralt killed an evil Witch-Hunter with time-travel powers, who turned out to be his future adopted son that went into the past and created a time paradox, and Geralt never mentioned this ever again, not even to the boys adopted mother (Triss/Shani)?
>>730628579I dont remember desu
>>730628579
why do fantasy fags always have to have like 4 names for the same charactershit gets confusing as fuck and they all do it
>>730628579I played this game all the way through and I don't remember that at all.
His son was supposed to be Ciri. I guess he transitioned upon defeat.

I marathoned 1 and 2's story on youtube and can confirm they are mid videogame slophopefully 3 is good like people say
The game ends when he stops Alvin, plenty of time to talk about it in the month or two between W1 and W2. When it comes to W2 Shani and Geralt split before it begins, we start in a siege, then immediately get blamed for Foltest's death, then spend the rest of the game fucking around to clear our name and stop things. Then Geralt and Triss split so he can find Yennefer and Ciri.All that said, yeah W1 is kind of weird. It was a weird mix of doing their own thing with the property and also somehow trying to make it a sequel. Its why there is stuff like Alvin clearly being Ciri, there even being someone who tells the stories of the books but uses no names. Why the Professor is around. Berengar was supposed to be the playable character in early dev too. All of that coming together means 1 isn't strongly canon.
>>730628579Who the fuck would believe him anyway?That sounds like somethin a drunk would come up with as an excuse why he came home late to his wife.
>>730628579I like how inhuman he looks in witcher 1, like a real freak instead of a chad in 2/3
>>730629290CDPR was pressured to appeal to normies after getting government funding from EU. 3 is very Americanized thanks to Warner Bros. funds.
>>730628579Following the Witchers story is so long and confusing that i forgot despite playing them at their release dates. I'm like that with pretty much with every RPG. I always need a refresher every 5 years or I'm lost again. Last thing i remember was 3's story. What makes thing worse is that it's not novel/book accurate so there's all of these conflicting stories that CDPR misunderstood the events in the lore completely. So I've just stopped caring. At the start i was really on board with it being a well written/deep multi layered story and now that there's novel nitpicking I'm off board.
Am I crazy if I thought Jacques was more interesting than Ciri? W1 and 2 felt like they were going somewhere, wish W3 didn't realign back to the novels.

>>730630243She got the card of *you*, anon
alvin could have showed up in witcher 3 due to time travel. but they werent really interested in connecting 3 to 1 and 2 too much.
What was even his goal anyways?
Choose
>>730633469Shaniit's not even a choice
>>730633469Will gay jannies delete this?
>>730628579the first game is literally a copy of the short stories.
>>730633469Wasn't this censored for some countries?
>>730628579The Witcher 1 was too fucking good that can not be mention it to retard Witcher 2 rollslopers and Witcher 3 romantacy fans.
>>730633469JANNIES I DEMAND...
>>730628579Does 2 ever get better? I made the mistake of playing it after 3 and it just feels like an inferior version in every way
Amazing game. Words words words.
Yeah the Witcher 1's plot was totally crazy. I mean, if you come out and say that a young boy you saved ended up using Source to travel through time wherein he discovered the future is a barren frozen death-world ala Arx Fatalis and he then spent his whole life desperately trying to find a way for mankind to survive the coming apocalypse which involved building Eternal Fire Vault and an army of super-mutants to guard it, who the fuck WOULD believe your story? Not even Dandelion is that imaginative. Witcher 1 also codified the White Frost as some kind of magical apocalypse where in the books it was a passing remark about the seasons had been getting colder, the old drunk probably wrote it while listening to the news talk about climate change and the White Frost was simply him being hip & socially relevant.

>>730629290Eh, I still think he looks freakish in 2.
>>730636012??? 2 has choices that actually matter as as well as a divergent story, unlike 3 which is a fake rpg.
>>730628579Gerald used to look cool as fuck. He seemed like a villain but Witcher 3 Gerald is overdosing on soimilk.
What was the story beats (more directly lore wise) CDPR got wrong again? wasn't it the Conjunction of Spheres or something? i forgot. But it was a big background story beat. When i read something like this online i gave up and just concluded i didn't know what the fuck was happening anymore. Maybe it was the white frost? i don't know but it's one of those big ones. The reason why Witcher has one of the better stories in RPGs is because it's based off actual books and tried to go as close as possible. But apparently they also shot themselves in the foot.
Are the books good?
>>730638214Only the first one, the rest is a lesbian power fantasy. With short chapters about Geralt and friends.
>>730632385Alvin let you a letter in one small and megastupid side quest in witcher 3.
>>730636012Witcher 2 is a rollslop game. You play the same story until certain part, then the game has two possible stories with different quests and some bosses change.
>>730638214It ends with Ciri getting Isekaiād into our medieval Earth and becoming Sir Galahads girlfriend.
>>730636398I wish they dropped the books so we can play renegade Geralt in 3. Yenn is the worst in both books and in game.
>>7306384062 felt more like Asscreed than rollslop.
>>730638413Dood, she was a fucking lesbian
