I've a relative who's playing the Witcher 3 and, while they're enjoying it, they're very confused on the lore.
So had the thought to buy them a book which will help with the lore of the witcher but not too much lore that it adds to the confusion. Which leaves me asking which book would be the best to get them?
title kinda says it all.
With such a large audience/fanbase established. why arn't the audiobooks casted with 15-20 people really breathing life into it.
Just watching through season 3. Its established a leshy can only be killed with fire. Then how does the myriapod in the woods kill it by splitting it?
So we know the lore before and during the events of the Witcher games up to tw3, however today after going down a rabbit hole I was made aware of various Witcher successor factions like the school of crane, fox, gryphalcon, lynx, etc. some of these schools are said to have been founded in the 1300s and up.. but the Witcher 3 game is set in 1272? So where is this info coming from that we’re getting lore hundreds of years past the end of the games?
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!
One of my favorite games. So I decided to make a whole experience on YT based on the original Leshy (called a Leshak in slavic folklore). Hope you enjoy!
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.
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
