Greetings!

I'm about to start working on a Dagon miniature from Witcher: The Old World board game.

Where can I find ref. pictures or detailed descriptions about the monster? I mostly found pictures of the in-game model which were low-res compared to what I need, or artpieces that had their lighting skew the colors of the creature.

Thank you in advance!

So I've seen only part of the show and never played the first or second game, but I picked up 3, the complete edition, during a 24 or 48 hour flash sale a couple months ago for less than 5 bucks. Is there anything I absolutely have to know going into the game, story/plot wise in order to understand everything that's happening and truly enjoy the experience?? Or so I don't screw anything up?

I just now finished Sword of Destiny, which is my favorite read to date, and am about to start Blood of Elves for context on where I am in the story.

I am still confused on the "Beltane May day eve" and his conversation with Calanthe in the final chapter. How did Geralt go from being horribly wounded on the wagon to that celebration event then back to the wagon? Same with the appearance in Cintra. Was it the hallucinations that Vissena spoke of?

Also, what was Yennefer's name being the last one of the engravings about? The lady he was speaking with is supposed to be Death, right?

Hi Guys, I played the Witcher 3, and I really loved the series but I realised I didn’t understand much of what was happening so I decided to read the books on its release date order, first the two short stories books and then the series.

Please not spoilers”

I’m on the second book of the Main series and I am a bit confused because of the writing.

spoiler alerts for the second book below!!!!!!!!

Gerald does not see Ciri for more than a year, and yennefer for god knows how long and all we get when they meet is a quick flashback!!!?? But hey we get huge chapters dedicated to thing that can be sum in less than a page like how Ciri hunters take her to atabern like honestly like 20pages ??

I mush rather known what Gerald and Yennefer talk about to reconcile or how did Gerald greet ciri, was waiting for that since the end of first book.but no time for that but hey we get an update about the world with some characters that honestly didn’t need to be a whole chapter about it, same with Ciri in the frying pawn or whatever also afterwards we are walk through how some bounty hunters find Ciri all of their nonsense dialogues that shoul of being skipped but I guess not and so on and on, but hey I guess that’s more important than the el main characters.

My question is? Am I reading the correct version, or is the second book like that?

9 days ago, I made a post in this sub asking, "Is it worth playing witcher 1", after everyone's suggestion, I completed it. I kind a feel bad to rush the game but now that I've completed witcher 1 is there anything I need to know before playing witcher 2? and I also have some questions.

1. Is witcher 2 continuation of witcher 1..??
2. I completed witcher 1 on medium difficulty, now that I'm familiar with alchemy I'm planning to play 2 on hard. So is there any significant changes in combat....??
3. And also any tips to not miss anything in this game?

Lastly, thanks to everyone who suggested me to play this game, if not for them I might have missed out on this beautiful game.

I am playing the Witcher 3 for the first time, I am trying to read about every character, to understand the gam, I was told, I could just skip the first two games( is a lie is hella confusing if you do) but I’m managing.

The thing is I refused to bow the first time to the Lannister emperor and refused to report him. I didn’t even ask for his help at Kaer morhen, But now I am being forced to see him with UMA and Gerald bowed to him!!!!!!!

Is there any way I can avoid if not bowing being forced to visit the emperor?

I feel i wasted my money on such old game after 15mins, god that 15 mins. The gameplay so wierd. I just can't bring myself to complete this game. Is there any good things in the game that feels like it's worth playing. I want to know, i really want to play this game but that gameplay is soo soooo wierd and i can't enjoy the fights. is it really worth playing this game now...??

Alr starting of I didn't read any books. I only played TW3 ans watched the other 2 games sometimes. I'm really confused about the timeline.

So. Do we know when TW3 is playing? Between 1270-1275 but do we know the exact year? Also how old are the characters. I know that Geralt is between 90-100. Yen about 100 years old. Lambert around 70-80 I think. Eskel about the same age as Geralt. Triss is one of the youngest sorceresses if I'm right and Vesemir around 200-250 or smt like that. But what are the exact ages in TW3?

Thx for every answere

Aside from the obvious fact that hes just cool as hell, I think he's just a very good embodiment of the Witchers themes. I am not only a fan of the games, but I'm also a fan of the books, and in terms of character writing, Iorveth fits into the world incredibly well.

Hes very grey in terms of his standing and his morals. In fact, people that he's working with regard him as a butcher and a murderer, but he's also capable of kindness and loyalty. Hes a great friend not only to Saskia, but to Geralt as well. He's always reliable and will always have your back. Hes a scoundrel, but what else could he be? Hes doing what he feels is necessary. Yes, hes very hateful towards humans, but hes still willing to work with them for the sake of a free Aerdin.

I also think its a bit sad that in TW2 him and the Scoia'tael are sleeping in the most run down parts of Vergen. As we see in Iorveths dream, he really wants his own warm home to just relax in. He desperately wants peace, but im not sure he'll ever know what to do with it if he gets it. Of course, he gets a shot at it, and he does whatever it takes to get it. Hes not going to let anyone sabotage Saskia or her plans, and he does so much for her. It may not be free elves everywhere. Its not getting their old ways back or the humans pushed away, but its a place where they can live safely and free from prejudice. Iorveth is the one that has the most to gain and nothing to lose. Saskia knows that hes ruthless but nonetheless relies on him. If it wasn't for Iorveth uniting the Scoia'tael, she wouldn't have Aerdin. He also is the one that catches the spell, and sets off to break it.

I also love how hes portrayed as a great leader. His men adore him, they follow him loyally. (Ciaran choosing death over betraying Iorveth breaks my heart) He brings them all together so they can defeat Henselt. But Iorveth often sees still, on the outside, very callous. Its likely partly because hes so used to being dying around him that it doesn't bother him as much anymore, but my favorite detail about Iorveth is that he seems to care an awful lot. He just hides it. To him, his anger and hatred is an armor. He uses it as a front so he doesn't seem weak. As Cedric says "hatred is but an outlet for helplessness" Iorveth for the first time in a long time, doesn't feel helpless. Saskia is his shot at something bigger, and I just love that he does what it takes to get it.

Idk if that makes any sense. I just wanted to talk about him cause I love him. ♡ really missed him in the third game.

I have a horrible problem in The Witcher 3, on the side I can't meditate anymore no matter what I do, I can't meditate, I changed my save, I restarted everything, seriously, I don't know what to do

let’s use an average Witcher for example (not someone like Geralt or Vesemir) and this said Witcher has just came out of an encounter with a Bruxae and lost an arm in said encounter

provided the Witcher doesn’t bleed out would they be able to regenerate that lost arm unlike regular humans can?

also the reason we’re unable to regenerate limbs is because we form scar tissue faster than our cells can reproduce, im curious if Witchers are limited to that or if their accelerated healing kinda bypasses that

(english is not my first language so i apologize if my grammar is bad or anything)

Just had a thought of how many monster would survive to a modern day setting in the Witcher universe and I would like y’all’s thoughts on this

And who do you guys usually side with? Iorveth is genuinely one of my favorite characters (next only to Regis and Ciri) so I always usually side with him, but both sides seem to have their ups and downs. I just prefer the elves and I genuinely Saskia is a good person to side with.

I have always been a connoisseur of well-written fantasy series. It started with, very obviously, Harry Potter. I explored the Eragon cycle next, followed by The Bartimaeus Sequence, The Hobbit, The Lord Of The Rings series, The Sword Of Truth series, and A Song Of Ice and fire series. I started from the age of twelve, and gradually grew up with them. The last two were definitely meant for adult minds and perspectives, and accordingly I enjoyed them in my 20s. I have discovered my preferences have changed over time. I am still into fantasy, but the types I enjoyed in my adolescence no longer satisfies me.

The Witcher, however, was truly everything my fantasy seeking mind needed. I cannot stress this enough how beautiful I found it in all aspects. It has everything in the right proportions. In comparison, The Sword Of Truth was too stretched with new elements being constantly introduced even when the main storyline apparently concluded. A Song Of Ice And Fire is yet to be concluded, but is significantly more political - almost tiresome; the elements of fantasy are very scarce and often inconclusive or not properly intertwined into the story.

The Witcher hit the right, and almost perfect balance. Action, magic, weapons, magical creatures, kingdom, knights, sorcerers, teleportation, prophecy, elf, dwarf, vampire, comedy, tragedy, spy, parallel worlds or multiverse, space and time travel, battle, war, politics, emotions - it has it all. And in perfect moderation, such that it never becomes overwhelming. The author has woven this multitude of elements seamlessly to create a wonderful fantasy world that is far from perfection, very unfair and unjust, much like the one we live in.

The other marvelous aspect is the multiple different types of narration. The story does not progress linearly. It is often, in sections, told from different person’s perspectives, spreaded over time, tethered skillfully. Initially bewildering, it soon became a key attribute that I have come to appreciate.

The Witcher is a story that has kept me hooked on for years by now. I had to take breaks in between to read other stories, but I always came back to it and finally finished the 7 books in almost 4 years. This is a journey that I hold very close to my heart. And even though the ending was very unexpected, I wholeheartedly embrace it, for there could not have been a more perfect one.

Just want to post and say hello that I've chosen to enter the witcher world. So yeah help me out and don't laugh at me when I ask random questions thanks
