Is anyone having a problem of just not being able to move on from Witcher? It was disappointing they are not going for an Enhanced Edition and that the GOTY edition won't bring anything new, I finished my fourth playthrough of Witcher 3 two weeks ago and I still want to play more playthroughs.

I do, already did six playthroughts, started thinking about seventh.

>>152056503
>>152054837
Fuck Jaskier. He left the gang to stay in Touissant.
The rest... Really sad. Specially Milva. She was there from the beginning, she fought her own battle in that bridge, she cheered up a bit with Angouleme and then the assault to the castle...

>>152054257
N-Nooooo!
>>
>>152057860
Goddamnit, 500 hours in, still can't move on, even with the plotholes in the last act there is still nothing quite like the series, damn it, hopefully the new deus ex will somehow relieve me of the addiction for a week
>>
>>152057693
Sort of. I've moved on to other games but I still visit /wtc/ and the subreddit because I can't let go of this series. I want to reread the books and replay the games one last time before fully moving on but I'm also a little bit apprehensive. I know it's good to quit while you're ahead and not run the series into the ground but it still sucks that Geralt's story is finally over.
>>
>>152057693
The opposite is true, I've moved on even before finishing addons and it's unlikely for me to ever come back. Come to me, it's better on this side.

What a shitty design, honestly. I figured out phase 2, let me repeat phase 3 over and over, why do I have to spend 20 minutes on phase 2 every fucking time? This isn't good design. Fuck whoever was in charge for this.

I did both of those. But you must find Philippa's thingamajig and bring it to Triss instead of Radovid. It's an essential part of the romance. Without it, you can kiss her and tell her you love her and she won't bang you in the lighthouse and you won't have the ending with her.

No you don't, I have no idea where you got that from. The crystal has nothing to do with her romance, you can bring it to her and get a short scene of Phil and Rita talking and hear Triss' opinion on it and that's it. It doesn't affect the romance in any way.

TW2 has two very different paths, depending whether you went with Roche or Iorveth. Second act is completely different and third act has various different outcomes on both paths. So yeah, you missed a lot, especially if you rushed the game in 9 hours. To really get the most out of tW2 you need to play it at least twice.

Ciri was sitting cross-legged on the ground, paying great attention to cards at hand. Geralt tried to teach her some Gwent one lazy afternoon and unfortunately, she didn't seem to understand card games at all. He threw a spy with a backward motion, his superior tactics granting him two additional siege cards. Ciri pouted and threw her deck in the air, then kicked at the match cards and walked off.

Geralt wasn't going to let that one slide. She makes fun of my horse, fine. She insults my beard, fine by me. She drinks all my apple juice? Okay! But disrespecting Gwent? Fuck no.

– Come over here – he barked at her.
– I won't. Your game of chance bores me.
– It's a game of skill, cunt. Come over here.

Ciri approached him exasperated, a her face a mask of shock.

– Did you just call me a cunt?
– I did. You're shit at cards. You insult my superior tactics, call me a lucker. Well guess what, Ciri. You're no longer a kid. I will no longer restrain myself.

Geralt grabbed her by the neck and bent her down, quickly unsheathed his silver sword began smacking ass with the flat of the blade. She shouted in pain for a while, then began moaning. Oh no, thought Geralt. Not again.

– M-more – she begged, some strange obsession in her eyes. Her hands already began unbuttoning her shirt.

The witcher sighed and took off his pants and breeches. Ciri instantly got to his giant mutated cock and began sucking furiously, pulling painfully at his majestic albino bush. Geralt patted her head in a preoccupied manner and thought of Yennefer sucking Triss' tits to make himself hard. His cock instantly hardened, seemingly because of Ciri's tongue covering it with tons of slobber.

She's my daughter, he thought. I have to make her happy, otherwise what kind of a father am I? He thought about Yen playing nude Gwent with Triss, making himself jizz violently. Ciri slurped at his fluorescent semen and let out a muffled gasp of comfort.

It's my duty. My destiny. My daughter.

How would living with Yen work? Who makes breakfast? Who cleans? They don't need the money since Yen is rich, right? So don't need a job. But even if they did, what would they do? I suppose Geralt could take on an occasional contract and help get cats out of trees but what would Yen do? And can't she just do everything with magic? What would she even do all day? Or Geralt? These people don't seem to have any hobbies. I think they'd just be miserable and end up fighting a lot and then break up. They've got nothing else in their lives besides fighting things like monsters or the wild hunt, and without that there's nothing.

I smack her in the head with a club, causing amnesia. Without remembering Geralt, I make her fall in love with me and lie about us being together before. It's called the Triss technique, once she regains her memory, she would think it's cute and marry me.

Your posts remind me of that horrible dialogue between Geralt and Yennefer after B&W.

But people can't accept that from their waifus. A shame they have to do this to actually good characters.

It was amusing though because he was accusing people of saying that Mistle raped Ciri of being wikifags. Despite being the most autistic book purist imaginable, he fundamentally did not understand several parts of the books because he was too autistic.

Triss and Geralt's relationship is flawed, complex and set on morally questionable foundations, yet still very sweet, romance filled and loving. I enjoy it a lot. I am a waifufag and not just any waifufag, but a Trissfag, we are top tier waifufags.

To set the record straight, Not_Important was right in that the waifu patch dialogue really was final and that it really was a sign of CDPR increasing blatant pandering to waifufags and the new fanbase in general in lieu of delivering the same or higher quality product as before.

He was however wrong in his terrible interpretations of the books, and that they'd overhaul the whole plot just to make sure Triss had as much content as Yen via removing Yen scenes from the game.

>>152091798
Triss is an (formerly) enthusiastic Lodge member of several years. Yennefer is technically a member in that she was abducted by Francesca Findabair and forced to join before escaping, and she attended a total of two meetings.

The journal and even some in-game dialogue is inconsistent and misleading about this.

Biggest sign of being a Yenfag is pretending you only like her because she's a good character while passionately engaging in waifu discussions only to claim superiority and accusing other people of being waifufags. Kind of like most vocal gay haters have homosexual tendencies themselves.

Why do you think people hate you so bad? Reminds them of the thread ruining stuff. /wtc/ only really got a few decent months compared to the long history of Witcher 2 threads being better on fucking /v/ of all places.

You're still the single worst waifufag the thread has ever seen, it's just earlier threads had far more of them.

I didn't really went pre-release, but since week one it's been Trissfags are x, Yenfags are x. I thought it was funny how it immediately started, real waifu wars weren't really a thing on official forums until the Triss movement got a positive response form CDPR.

Honestly Goldenface would have given you a run for your money. He was almost as bad. He didn't have that weird Mod collusion thing going on that you had though so he'd frequently be IP banned.

The few decent months I was referring to were in the late summer lull before HoS released. Most of the waifufags but the most obsessive Cirifags had left, as had all the casual /v/ shitposters. Got some good discussion in then.
>>
>>152097154
>this revisionist history
It really isn't, sure, people debated Triss and Yen, but the open hostility only appeared later on.
>>
>>152097357
>Debated
You have such low standards.

>but the open hostility only appeared later on.
kek> It was already becoming verboten to criticize said characters in their own discussion threads. Rather than discussion threads, the Yen thread and Triss thread rapidly transformed into fanclubs shortly after release.
>>
>>152097519
>their own discussion threads
These threads appeared after TW3 release and slowly grew more hostile as time passed, eventually getting banned from the forum for a while. There was one Triss/Yen combined thread before that and it was rather calm by the new waifu debating standards TW3 imposed.
>>
>>152097885
Yeah. To invite casual fans was apparently to invite waifufags. It was a perfect set-up. The white-washing of Triss by CDPR, the incredulous rage of hardcore fans that so many new people despised what had been a major protagonist of the books in Yennefer...

To think I once thought Witcher fans were too intelligent and well adjusted to behave like Biodrones.
>>
>>152099613
They offered two very appealing choices and people got hooked. TW3 introduced waifu rivalry, and CDPR encouraged it themselves on few occasions.
>>
>>152100305

This is why the deserved what they got when their forums went to shit. They encouraged waifu wars, and appointed very unprofessional and petty fanboys as moderators.
>>
>>152100575
>when their forums went to shit
I wouldn't even call it like that, nothing in those waifu threads was worse than the stuff that can be seen here. It's just that their moderators are oversensitive type.

And it makes sense that CDPR would encourage something so popular among their fanbase. They still do it, when they posted that team waifu stuff on their Gwent twitter profile the other day, it got most likes and retweets out of all the posts ever made on that profile.

Waifus are good for engaging witcher community.

>I wouldn't even call it like that, nothing in those waifu threads was worse than the stuff that can be seen here.
4chan is for shitposting. It's accepted, and inevitable when everyone is anonymous. It's inexcusable for official forums. And it wasn't just the waifuthreads that have become bad.

>And it makes sense that CDPR would encourage something so popular among their fanbase.
I'm not so sure. Do you really think most new fans that buy the GOTY Edition will look at their forums for the first time and not be dismayed by the content?

I agree about 4chan and partially about official forums, although the forums had a lot of interesting discussion aside of waifu wars.

>Do you really think most new fans that buy the GOTY Edition will look at their forums for the first time and not be dismayed by the content?
I think they won't, the forums are rather dead now anyway and it won't get any better, since no new content is planned and GOTY will attract few new people.

>Vehemence is no substitute for quality OR quantity.
It doesn't have to be, it's simply something imposed by the fanbase and accepted by CDPR.
>>

>Probably asked a ton, but do I need to play Witcher 1 and 2 to fully enjoy 3?
To fully enjoy it? You need to play Witcher 1 and 2 AND read the books the series is based on.

To enjoy it at all? No, not necessary.

>>152102676

If that turns out to be true it'll be a nasty surprise for CDPR, given that it's a physical release and so costs a fairly substantial amount of money.

I don't think they expect some massive numbers anyway, I'm sure they calculated the risks. Most people who wanted the game got it already.
>>
>>152103353
>Most people who wanted the game got it already.
Lots of people actually wait for every big expansion and patch to be out before purchasing something even if they're interested in it. I mean, most gamers seem to have impulse control issues, but not all of them. Also there's all the post-release word of mouth which is mostly glowing praise.

>>
>>152104065
Here is a interview with the main writers where they discuss their reasoning for the break up and explain it a bit.

>>152104651
Warning: May be outdated, and is mostly the opinion of a single writer. There's lots of cut content and plot changes. Not saying it definitely no longer applies, but there is uncertainty, especially given certain in-game dialogue you haven't seen yet.
>>
>>152104785
They both agree and Marcin Blacha is the lead writer. About the cut content, yeah, but this was something that was never meant to be shown in the game, so I doubt their reasoning changed by much.

And the line you refer to doesn't go against anything said in the interview.
>>
>>152105080
>They both agree and Marcin Blacha is the lead writer.
One of them talks about it and the other barely says anything.

Not anymore ;_;
>>
>>152105138
>There's an entire conversation talking about their breakup.
Yeah, but it is never explicitly said that Geralt dumped Triss, it's only implied they broke it off which doesn't go against what the writer is saying. Triss says that she parted ways with someone dear to her, their warehouse convo also doesn't go against the writer's words, and Dijkstra only mentions the separated a week after Loc Muine.

Triss being sad and having a hard time accepting it doesn't mean she got dumped.

>One of them talks about it and the other barely says anything.
Other one is Polish and his English isn't the best, but he nods his head approving what Boris is saying.
>>
>>152105284
He got promoted to story director after TW3 released.
>>
>>152105783
>Yeah, but it is never explicitly said that Geralt dumped Triss,
You are reaching so hard right now
>>
>>152105924
>He got promoted to story director after TW3 released.
And now Mati-whatever is narrative lead. Not sure what happened to Marcin #3.
>>
>>152107273
I am not reaching at all, I am just saying that I accept the version of the break up that the senior and lead writer told. I don't think that's unreasonable. I like it and it's something that goes in line with how I imagine thing happening. My Geralt felt conflicted and needed time to find Yen and figure things out.

It's not in the game, so it's open to speculation and as far as I'm concerned anyone can come up with whatever version of the break up they want, including Geralt taking a piss on Triss' face.
>>
Does anyone know if there's currently a way to get Ansel to work during cutscenes?
>>
>>152107951
This means you have to argue that TRISS of all people (who previously seemed to want to go with him) possibly initiated or at the very least totally agreed with the break up.
>>
>>152108434
In my version, I think Geralt wasn't sure what he wants to do, he didn't want to straight out dump Triss and leave on his own, although he probably considered it. He developed genuine feelings for her and feels conflicted.

Triss on the other hand knows his history with Yen well and kind of thinks it's a lost cause. Her whole romance arc in TW3 is convincing her she has a chance. Triss did want to go search Yen with him in TW2, but once his memories returned for real, maybe it didn't felt right anymore, or more likely CDPR wanted to start the game without too much baggage from the previous one not to overwhelm the new players.

So they use the first opportune excuse to go their separate ways. Triss her work, and Geralt his search for Yen, which was already his priority anyway.
>>
>>152109245
Eh, I can't see it. She's way too attached to him for that. He has to have forced the issue, in my mind. Like not really harsh words or even a raised voice. Although from Geralt even fairly mild condemnation can seem pretty harsh. Especially for Triss, I'd imagine. She's already panicking if you take certain dialogue options in Loc Muinne.
>>
>>152109481
Not Triss spammer, but he has a point, most likely Geralt just left with a note near the fireplace, sounds a lot like the Geralt we know, unless I did not remember Djikstra's words correctly.

I feel like I'm stuck in a rut. I'm actually afraid I'm never going to find a fantasy franchise I love as much as this one ever again. I don't want to read Lady of the Lake because I dislike reading digital books, but I also don't want to read it so I can somehow save the last piece that's left.

I believe Triss knows she has little chance of keeping Geralt and it would be more painful for her to go with Geralt and watch him get back with Yen. No matter how attached she is to Geralt, I don't think that is a situation in which she would like to find herself in. And it would be a rather awkward reunion with the three of them, especially for the one that turns out to be the third wheel. And Triss is aware that it would most likely be her.

As far as Geralt is concerned, I do think he wanted to take some time apart from Triss and see where things stand between him and Yen, so I agree that he probably initiated some talk and Triss played along to spare herself the further pain.

Lady of the Lake has a lot of good stuff though and it is very important for Witcher 3, my favourite book out of the saga, so don't be a sentimental fag and go read it now.

As for your despair, I get you, this damn game and book series felt custom-made just for my tastes, sure, it got infested with waifu bullshit and the quality dips in some parts, but I haven't had "fun" playing other games after finishing the series, it is a curse that a lot of us here will have to deal with.
>>
>>152110212
>I believe Triss knows she has little chance of keeping Geralt and it would be more painful for her to go with Geralt and watch him get back with Yen.
Yet she wanted to go anyway. She doesn't like t find herself in that situation, sure, but she's attached bordering on clinical co-dependence.

> And it would be a rather awkward reunion with the three of them, especially for the one that turns out to be the third wheel. And Triss is aware that it would most likely be her.

I'm pretty shocked at how little drama there was over this. I guess Wild Hunt takes precedence but Yennefer doesn't so much as snark at Triss.
>>
>>152109245
I would say you're probably right. It's not like he hates Triss or shits on her for her dicklust when she waits for Geralt and Yen to get into a tiff so she can bone him. He seems to just shrug it off and Triss completely stops chasing after him once Yen gives her a talking to.

Still, in my opinion, mutually fucking while he and Yen were taking a break is not even comparable to Triss lying to him for 2 years and pretending she was his girl all along while conveniently forgetting to mention her own "best friend" and Geralt's ward to him. As such, I think Geralt should have been a bit more contemptuous toward her in TW3.
>>
>>152109924
>Except that Triss outright said they exchanged words at Loc Muinne and "I don't want to go back to that". He's had some character growth since his Vengerberg Special days.

He doesn't seem very mad about Triss over the cheating (which really...that's the least of her misdeeds. Not sure why everyone is so obsessed with it besides waifuaggotry). But he can get kind of hard on her over the lying about the Lodge stuff. That seemed to actually make him mad.

>Still, in my opinion, mutually fucking while he and Yen were taking a break is not even comparable to Triss lying to him for 2 years and pretending she was his girl all along while conveniently forgetting to mention her own "best friend" and Geralt's ward to him
And helping the Lodge at every turn and agreeing to pimp Ciri out to Tancred Thyssen. Seriously. The cheating is almost nothing in comparison. For some reason people act like it's literally the worst thing someone can do though.

He doesn't have to in Loc Muinne, depends on your chosen options. But in general almost no one ever holds Triss responsible for any of her actions. Other mages in particular, even her friends, seem to treat her like a child. All that "Little Merigold" stuff is downright insulting, to me, but she doesn't seem to mind it at all. Yeah yeah she's young for a mage, but so is Keira and no one ever talks to her or even about her like that.

I really tried to like that game, could not get more than 11 hours from it, story just did not grab me or hold my interest, also the damn dungeon in the keep you get.

Keira is treated as a nymphomaniac, which she is and she is not a scared little girl like Triss is, she has backbone (and a nice back) but I do not remember who is older of the two.
>>
>>152110427
>Yet she wanted to go anyway.
Things could have changed, Geralt still had amnesia when they had that talk, maybe he wasn't keen on taking her anymore or the things became awkward between them and she realized that is not the best idea.

>I'm pretty shocked at how little drama there was over this
There is the bed and lake incident, but I also expected some direct confrontation between the two, especially considering Yen already snapped at Triss a few times over it in the books, so it wouldn't feel OOC. It was one of the things we asked for as a part of Triss fixes, but it never came to be. And they have different priorities, it's not really a moment for having a cat fight.

Interesting thing, Triss and Yen go to Novigrad together after KM battle, I don't think they can just teleport there, KM is fairly distant, although maybe they could, I'm not sure how powerful teleports really are. But even if they did, they must have spend some time together while searching and consulting about info regarding the Lodge. That must not have been pleasant for Triss.

>>152110528
Triss confessed it all during the trip to Flotsam in TW2, so Geralt was aware of her actions for most part of the second game. My Geralt still decided to pursue her romantically after that and went on to save her, but from that moment on you can treat Triss more harshly and refuse any romance with her if you desire, so it's up to each player to decide what they find morally acceptable.
>>
>>152109678
>I feel like I'm stuck in a rut. I'm actually afraid I'm never going to find a fantasy franchise I love as much as this one ever again.

Yeah I feel that as well. I know I have felt similar feelings for other shit though, and ended up moving on to new things anyway. I never thought i'd recover from that game of cards at the end of The Next Generation, or that Seinfeld finale, but you'll find new things and move on, no worries.

I do, not all isometric RPGs but some, but I think the game has something that just did not click with me, most likely the combat itself is just way too tedious until you have good damage dealer mages in your party.

>Well would you threaten someone that just effortlessly cut through your garrison and is now in your throne room?

But he did not seem the type of character to let his men be murdered without consequences, I have to admit I do not really remember if he killed his wife out of hatred or accident, but that is my point, I was not immersed enough I guess.

No. I also hate how any bolt but the default ones does fuck-all damage underwater.
>>
>>152110698
>And helping the Lodge at every turn and agreeing to pimp Ciri out to Tancred Thyssen.
I don't really hold this against Triss too much. She was misguided by her ideals, believed the Lodge was acting in the name of greater good. Even if she stood up to them, Phil would carry on with her plan, Triss has no way of stopping her, she is her bitch. Not to say it wasn't a bad thing, but Triss motivations were never evil, she is simply a weak person.
>>
>>152111451
>There is the bed and lake incident,
Bed is her taking her frustrations out on an inanimate object instead of a person and the lake incident only happens if you have Geralt deliberately and repeatedly provoke her. And doesn't happen at all in a non-Triss playthrough. It's just not enough imo.

Teleport power is really vague and inconsistent. Yen goes all the way from Vizima to Kaer Morhen somehow despite that being said as way too far to teleport in other places. Assire goes even farther to get to Loc Muinne in TW2.

In any case, off-screen isn't good enough.

>Triss confessed it all during the trip to Flotsam in TW2,
All she gave him was admitting she'd hid Yennefer from him and exaggerated their previous relationship, and gave a possibly very biased account of his pre-amnesia life. She was still totally lying to him about the Lodge.

Might try playing it again. A lot of stuff has been overhauled. I think it's a far better game than at release, but then I liked it at release already so it might not be enough to hook you.

>But he did not seem the type of character to let his men be murdered without consequences, I have to admit I do not really remember if he killed his wife out of hatred or accident, but that is my point, I was not immersed enough I guess.
He killed her for breaking his religious laws. He's a harsh and justice obsessed man. I imagine he was pretty cold when he did it. Thing is, he only let's that slide if you agree to help him out on a pretty big deal project. I agree it could be justified better though.

Actually thinking about it, it wasn't just this. He also blamed her for their child being hollow born. So there was anger in it too.

Almost no one has outright "evil" motivations but I don't think Triss's were purely altruistic either. I think she also really wanted to be part of the Big Girls' Club.

I agree about the Triss/Yen confrontation, I would have liked to see more.

>All she gave him was admitting she'd hid Yennefer from him and exaggerated their previous relationship, and gave a possibly very biased account of his pre-amnesia life. She was still totally lying to him about the Lodge.
Don't underestimate Geralt, he is not stupid, he can conclude what she's been doing even with the minimal info about Yen and Ciri. Just knowing they are friends and that Triss didn't mention her is enough. And we don't know what details she told and whether she exaggerated things or not, we only have Dandy's narration. That conversations should have been in game and give players a chance to confront Triss.

As far as the Lodge is concerned, we had this discussion before, Triss had no concrete evidence to involve the Lodge at that time and further complicate the situation. But regardless of all, she took Geralt's side over them in the end and that is all that matters to me.

>I prefer to go by characterization rather than my own morals.
Game Geralt doesn't seem to mind Triss' actions that much no matter what choices you pick, they remain in friendly terms, but it's a matter of RP preference and is fairly subjective. You can play whatever is more enjoyable for you and so can I.

I might actually do just that some day, same happened to me when I first played Witcher 1, played 30 minutes then was turned off, next day restarted from scratch and the game quickly became one of my top 3 most favourite games, so maybe the next time I try PoE things will click better with me, until then, I still have the Enhanced Edition of Divinity Original Sin to try, but I still have that Witcher curse.

Yeah it was a bit off, though I only needed one more speech point to be able to convince the guards, sadly I had to kill about 3 dozen men and he just brushed that off when he basically murdered his own wife for petty things, hehe

How would he know anything of details of the Lodge meeting? Or even the Lodge's existence? There's like one line about them from Azar Javed and since it's incomprehensible to him at the time and he's pretty busy I doubt he remembered it.

>As far as the Lodge is concerned, we had this discussion before, Triss had no concrete evidence to involve the Lodge at that time and further complicate the situation. But regardless of all, she took Geralt's side over them in the end and that is all that matters to me.

It wasn't petty to him. He knew she was an Eothasian and tried to get her to stop several times. Then she gives birth to a hollowborn child, something he has long blamed on Eothas worship. To his admittedly a bit unhinged mind, she murdered their child.

But yeah. It's a bit contrived. You also could have avoided the guards through two other methods by the way.

She did, she is a flawed person, some of her actions are simply wrong, no denying there, but I do consider her a good person, especially compared to the other people we get to see. Very few people from TW universe, if any, have a perfectly clean conscience.

I never said he knew anything about the Lodge, I was referring to him realizing that Triss abused his amnesia.

And it's not that Triss didn't have suspicion about the Lodge being involved, she just didn't have concrete evidence, before Flotsam there was evidence pointing out at Scoia'tael and other witchers, so she might have chose to wait it out and get more info.

I'm not denying she failed to mention the Lodge to Geralt and kept info from him, I just think she had valid reasoning for doing so. She is very loyal to the Lodge up until TW2 events so it's her behavior is not unusual at all.
>>

>I'm not denying she failed to mention the Lodge to Geralt and kept info from him, I just think she had valid reasoning for doing so.
In-character? Sure. Morally? No.
>>
Come to think of it mages in general seem to compulsively horde secrets, big and small. Yennefer hardly tells anyone anything, even people she trusts, and even when knowing it would cause no harm at all. It's a very annoying habit. Though at least with her you always know you don't know, since she outright says "I'm doing something and I'm not going to tell you why". Still annoying as fuck though.
>>
>>152113954
True, I might have used a wrong term to express my point, what I meant to say is that most of the characters from TW do morally questionable things. Triss is far from the worst offender.
>>
>>152114382
>Triss is far from the worst offender.
I gotta be honest I have an irrational degree of hate here in part because she not only does immoral things, she generally does them in an incompetent way. At least Philippa is a fun and competent antagonist. I mean, I'd dislike Triss as a person anyway, but somehow the childishness makes it more annoying.

Well, that and her fanbase.
>>
>>152114198
>Morally? No.
And I agree, but she did what I consider to be the right thing at the end of TW2, even though she accused the Lodge of Foltest's murder without clear evidence. She basically missed the Nilfgaard's role even though she was captured by them, but oh well, her heart was in the right place and she took Geralt's side against them for the first time. Something that's imo a huge thing for her, given she betrayed him over them in the past.
>>
>>152114876
>even though she accused the Lodge of Foltest's murder without clear evidence.
Man you have stringent standards for proving the evil conspiratorial organization is actually an evil conspiratorial organization.

Could it be....because your waifu is a member?
>>
>>152114510
That's fine, people who dislike Triss have perfectly valid reasons, I can't deny that, but they do sometimes go overboard depicting her as the worst evil that walked the world.

I happen to like her struggles, imperfections, childishness. I think she is a realistic character and imo CDPR did a good job with her overall in terms of character depiction and growth. I like her arc in the games, amnesia abuse included. I have a thing for weak, flawed people.

>>152115091
Well, Letho did outplay Sile and papa Emhyr made a nice foreplay for his invasion of the North. It went over Triss' head unfortunately. I'm not defending the Lodge in particular, only pointing out they weren't the main player.

She is a fairly good character, whether you like her as a person or not. A lot of her actions spark debate, there is no denying there. It doesn't matter she's a perfect waifu sometimes, it only adds a layer to her, if you look at her actions throughout the series, there's interesting stuff to be found.

It's all part of her appeal for me. I absolutely loved her romance in TW3, the looks she and Geralt exchange, Vegelbud's ball, convincing her she has a chance, the cheesiness of the waifu patch...I mean, I liked Triss A LOT in TW2, less so in TW1, but TW3 made me go full waifufag for her.

I would have loved a bit more non romance content with her, maybe something involving the Lodge, but she already had two games and you can't always get what you want. When all is considered, I'm very happy with the amount of content we have with her during the trilogy and how she turned out.

>To be fair she wasn't in the second game very much.
This is a statement I just can't get behind, she plays a crucial role in TW2, has most dialogue lines besides Geralt and Roche/Iorveth depending on the path you take. Not to mention saving her was a driving force for my Geralt, but that's subjective. TW2 was the game that really made me care for Triss and I have no complaints about her TW2 depiction.

Her position in TW3 makes sense, although if you only play that game, she does seem overly angelic at times. Waifu or not, I love Triss.
>>
>>152120496
She plays a crucial role in a big subplot in TW2 but she does that while being an absentee, for the most part. She is insignificant in Act 1 except for two scenes, vanishes before the longest act even starts, and re-appears at the very end of the game.
>>
>>152120496
>Not to mention saving her was a driving force for my Geralt, but that's subjective.
I outright hate Triss but I don't think that's subjective. Finding Triss is one of his big drives in the game. His biggest being discovering his past, but Triss and the mystery of the Kingslayers is right up there.

I don't think there should have been more Triss in TW2 either. But that doesn't mean she was in it much. She was in it just enough to fulfill her role. More would be gratuitous. Less would be bad writing. If they'd gone full pandering in TW2, there'd have been much more of her.
>>
>>152120742
Well, I can't really agree, she is fairly prominent in Act 1, Act 3 is fairly short anyway and depending on your choices Triss plays a very prominent part in it too. I think it's unfair to say she's barely in TW2, but it's not like I'll convince you otherwise.
>>
I'm playing through the main game for the first time (just got to Skellige for the first time) but I'm already thinking about which DLC I should buy. I have $20 on my Steam wallet so I can only buy one expansion pack.

Things to consider -

- My summer break is going to be over in a week and I won't have as much time to play because of school, probably will only be able to chip at the main game for an hour a day, if even that. So I thought of the idea of just getting HoS since I know it'd be shorter plus its cheaper anyways. But...

-I haven't been outright spoiled (thank god) but it was pretty unavoidable for me to read that the end of the main game made people feel "empty." I love TW1 and TW2 so I'm kind of scared that I might get that empty feeling when I eventually beat the main game, so getting the DLC that gives the most closure would probably sit well with my heart and since B&W is supposed to be Geralt's endgame, I figured I might get that closure with that DLC.

-What trumps either of those two concerns though, is getting an amazing story out of it.

Which one would you guys recommend to get, knowing that I'd only be able to afford one? For now at least, I do eventually plan on getting the one I don't buy, but I want to feel "fulfilled" with my purchase.

Thanks in advance for your replies.
>>
>>152121078
>Well, I can't really agree, she is fairly prominent in Act 1,
Dandelion has more conversation than she does, especially if he doesn't glitch and you can talk to him about the Isle of Avallac'h after interrogating Cedric. Roche too, especially if you pick his path. I'm pretty sure the same applies to Iorveth.
>>
>>152120853
> She was in it just enough to fulfill her role.
I can agree with this, and it's a role I enjoy quite a lot. I never felt I needed more of her in TW2, she fits perfectly into the story the way thing are.

It doesn't give closure for the stuff people were complaining about except for a post-game waifu visit. Overall, I'd say it's BAD closure. I'd prefer no closure. While B&W is longer than HoS, the vast majority is side content. The main story is slightly shorter than HoS, and significantly worse written.

If you can only get one, get HoS.

>want to feel "fulfilled" with my purchase.
Honestly given you're a hardcore fan, you're unlikely to find the ending satisfying no matter what, since both HoS and B&W have nothing to do with the main game and there will never be an EE. But maybe these warnings have softened your expectations so you'll be able to enjoy it more.

Also this thread is spoilery as fuck so while I'd love for you to stick around and share you fresh new impressions, you'd probably better leave.

One thing I'll say for TW3's ending: At least most of the dumb stuff is clearly dumb by omission and wuld be fixable with more content. Compare to more recent and more catastrophic fuckup ME3, where the plot is just fundamentally dumb and nothing can really fix it but a total rewrite.

I'm too tired now to look for exact dialogue stats, but I'll be sure to post it when I find it. Some guy on the official forums did an official dialogue count for all the games and major characters, and I think he even divided it by chapters, so I'll try to find that tomorrow.

In TW2 it goes Geralt, Roche, Iorveth, Triss
In TW3 Geralt, Ciri, Yen, Triss

Meh. That's unfortunately surprising. Is it fair to say that most of the praise B&W gets is because of it's vast exploration? Touissant looks absolutely gorgeous, at the very least. That was enough for me to consider it.

>But maybe these warnings have softened your expectations so you'll be able to enjoy it more.

They have a bit, yeah. At least what I'm playing is amazing. Everything in Novigrad was phenomenal.

And yeah. Won't stick around for long, going to see if I get anymore responses then go back into the game. Skellige is almost an expansion in it's own right, I feel.
>>
>>152121234
HoS has a better story and more memorable characters, but side content is poor.

B&W has a weaker main story, it's length is similar to the one in HoS, maybe a bit longer, but it has a ton of side content, new area and gives somewhat of a better closure.
>>
>>152121846
By the way does he include the glitched Dandelion conversations that only show up in about 1 in 10 playthroughs? Roche also has a glitched one about the Wild Hunt in Act 1 that I only ever saw once.

>Is it fair to say that most of the praise B&W gets is because of it's vast exploration?
Yes. And waifufags drooling over the epilogue. And fanservice inexplicably returned Regis.

The cracks don't start showing until the end of the second act, which is where they clearly started running out of time and money.

>Skellige is almost an expansion in it's own right, I feel.
Yeah. It has such a different tone and the only thing really linking it to the rest of the game is Yennefer (I think it's weird how finding Yennefer has been a big deal since TW2 and when you find her she immediately exiles herself to Skellige, incidentally) and muh family theme from Crach. I personally thought Novigrad dragged a bit. I mean what was there was all good, I just was really chomping at the bit for a change by the end of it.
>>
>>152122124

Yeah, the two of you probably steered me towards HoS. Side content just doesn't reel me in like it used to and that seems to be B&W's saving grace.
>>
>>152122020
>What a waste.
None of Triss' lines are a waste, none.

In TW3 I think Triss has around 790 lines and in TW2 400-500 and similar to that in TW1. Yen has around 1050 in TW3, but I'll have to check that, I just vaguely remember it.

I know the series count goes like this: Geralt, Triss, Ciri, Yen.
>>
>>152122406
>Side content just doesn't reel me in like it used to
Same for me. I wish they'd focused less on it and more on the main story. At least they removed dice poker.

Novigrad was awesome because of how it slowly introduced all the characters that grew on you, plus some great new ones. I never read the books sadly, only played the games, but it was great getting back with Triss, Zoltan, Dandelion...It was a fun reunion.

One impression that's stuck to me though -- feels like the game is pushing me towards Yen, as if she's the "canon" romance. Probably has to do with me not reading the books. Maybe my opinion would be different then. But it does seem like Yen is a bit forced.

Triss did basically take the spotlight for the first two games, so it's only fair for Yen I suppose. *shrug.*

Read the books. TW3 especially cannot be fully appreciated without them.

>One impression that's stuck to me though -- feels like the game is pushing me towards Yen, as if she's the "canon" romance.
She is. Really, TW2 should have tipped you off. The game is clearly un-subtly pushing it, yeah. Having a Triss option actually feeled forced to me at this point too though, honestly. But if you haven't read the books it's more understandable not to feel that way.

Tell that to Shani, Triss, and Iorveth.

Really, set aside your feelings for a bit. Ignore the books. Even ignore TW2. Yennefer is in the opening cinematic. There's a damn love song about Geralt and Yennefer. Everyone acts like Geralt is with Yennefer later on even if they split. Triss was neglected on release to the extent they had to patch in new lines for her as if they thought only a small minority would ever pick her. One of the biggest complaints from people that liked Triss were how the game forced Yennefer on them.

It's about as canon as anything in a game like this can be. Same with Triss over Shani in TW1.
>>
>>152122760

Did you let Triss leave in Novigrad? If so, you no longer have a choice, except between Yennifer or nothing.

> they thought only a small minority would ever pick her.

As someone who played the games but didn't read the books, I felt like there would be more people like like me than people who read the books + played the games and that the former group of people would be more inclined for Triss.

Then again there's probably a huge chunk of people where TW3 is their first game and picking up on all the hints you mentioned would steer them towards Yen.

This has probably been discussed to death by now so everything I'm saying isn't anything new, but I will say that I thought the split between Triss and Yen would be close to 60-40 in Yen's favor.

>>152123490
I kissed her at the Vegelbud estate and said "I love you" to her in "Now or Never." and got the sex scene. So unless I missed some meticulous detail, I'm pretty confident that I'm locked with Triss.

I have to admit (and I really hope I'm not descending into waifufag-ness) but Yen is very...Intriguing. I'm second guessing myself on jumping onto Triss spontaneously. Oh well, playthrough # 2 maybe?

I never got this. Triss wasn't actually that popular prior to TW3 and her big subplot in the previous games is about how she's deceiving Geralt. But I guess a love interest is a love interest.

>Then again there's probably a huge chunk of people where TW3 is their first game and picking up on all the hints you mentioned would steer them towards Yen.
Actually no. A slight majority of incoming fans didn't care where the game was steering them and hated her. Prevailing view was she's a cunt.

>This has probably been discussed to death by now
Oh God...the waifu wars. It was a dark time.

>but I will say that I thought the split between Triss and Yen would be close to 60-40 in Yen's favor.
On release it was the reverse. Now that it's mostly more long term fans left, it's closer to 50-50.

>I kissed her at the Vegelbud estate and said "I love you" to her in "Now or Never." and got the sex scene. So unless I missed some meticulous detail, I'm pretty confident that I'm locked with Triss.
Yeah you're locked into Triss. Or no one. You can still fuck it up but I won't tell you how because it amuses me not to.

>I have to admit (and I really hope I'm not descending into waifufag-ness) but Yen is very...Intriguing. I'm second guessing myself on jumping onto Triss spontaneously.
Well the most natural course through the game means you've hardly seen Yennefer by the time you get to the end of Triss's sidequest line so it's pretty easy to have happened. But you've already descended to waifufaggotry, sadly. It is a subtle infection and can creep up on even attentive gamers.

>>152123994
>I'm a fan of Yen out of the two but can we at least all agree that Ciri having more lines than both would be a good thing?
Yes, given the main focus of the story is the family relationship and Geralt is the player character, it would be odd if it wasn't this way.

>>152124075

>>152123248
I can agree that Yennefer was a more fleshed out option, but there is no such thing as canon in the games. You can still end up happily ever after with Triss, and counting the romance scenes alone there isn't really that much difference in content, especially after the waifu patch. Yen has an extra sex scene and Triss has an extra lovey dovey one. Yen is more involved in the main plot because it makes more sense for her to be. Romance wise the difference is not that big.

Before TW3 was released, I thought we will be forced to romance Yen, and I really, really wanted to continue romancing Triss. Thank god it never happened.

Who acts like Yennefer and Geralt are together after the break up? Only Cerys, and that can be played even before, and she only listened to the ballads about them, she can't know the details of Geralt's love life. I don't remember anyone else mentioning that.

I do think CDPR underestimated the number of people who will choose Triss, especially among the casual fanbase, where she reigns supreme. Yen is obviously a more popular choice among the hardcore fanbase. None of them is a canon choice within the game world, other than the canon of individual people.

Triss was shafted, but it can't really be compared to Shani who got the boot. At least you can still romance Triss and I personally much prefer the romance scenes with her, imo they are more fun and I love how Geralt acts around her.

>Who acts like Yennefer and Geralt are together after the break up? Only Cerys, and that can be played even before,
Almost everyone in Kaer Morhen pretty much treats it that way. Though given past history I can see why they're skeptical a breakup is a permanent affair.

>Triss was shafted, but it can't really be compared to Shani who got the boot.
It's comparable because the game went ahead and had Geralt and Triss split up between games regardless of TW2 choices. Though yeah, she didn't get completely erased like Shani.

>Triss was shafted,
Triss should go away forever after Novigrad imhoftbh (in my humble opinion family to be honest), since it's the most natural end to her character arc and would show actual growth instead of continued co-dependence on Geralt and sympathy for the Lodge. Her original content afterwards was clearly an afterthought and really shouldn't have been there at all.. The decision effects dialogue with Yennefer far more than with Triss. But if you're going to do something, you might as well d it right, so she ended up really needing that waifupatch. A same the dialogue was so poor.

In a game like this, canon is a useless label people use to feel better about their choice and tap each other on the back getting validation that they did good. People enjoy that.

>Almost everyone in Kaer Morhen pretty much treats it that way.
Umm, what, who? When? Lambert assumes during the drinking scene and Geralt corrects him and Vesemir and Eskel say some not too kind words about Yen and that's it.

>It's comparable because the game went ahead and had Geralt and Triss split up between games regardless of TW2 choices.
This was done mostly to give a cleans slate start to the new players. That's why none of the choices from TW2 matter. It also makes sense from the story perspective, but we've already talked about the break up.

>Triss should go away forever after Novigrad
I disagree, my Geralt found something special with Triss and I'm glad he's given a chance to see it through. I don't think leaving Triss is less painful than leaving Yen, but that being said, there is a subjective factor, I dumped Yen many times, and never really felt bad about it. I wasn't gloating or anything, but it felt natural for my Geralt. Same way, seeing Triss leaving is a sad scene for me, because I like Triss. Someone liking Yen more will see Yen's scene as more emotional.

I know, but how does that imply that they act like Geralt and Yen are still together. Vesemir even has a nice realization moment about the bed being a Triss thing, and in the beginning when Geralt says he had a dream, Vesemir assumes it was about Triss.

My fellow Trissfags way overreacted to that Cerys talk, I mean some Skellige girl assumes Geralt is with Yen, a woman he's been with for years with ballads being sang about them. Big fucking deal. Some even asked for Cerys talk to be adjusted, talk about a waste of resources(in Triss patch perspective only).

Same way some Yenfags overreact about Dijkstra's comments.

Not to say it wasn't a bad thing, but Triss motivations were never evil, she is simply a weak person.
Except Triss is not a child, was fully aware and can face the consequences of her actions.Also your explanation could be used for pretty much all villains who pursue their agenda in the name of their version of the greater good.

Yeah, some were hilarious, like with Priscilla's song. I mean, I fucking love Triss, but I don't need to negate that Yen and Geralt have a 20 something years of turbulent love between them immortalized by Dandy's poetry. The idea that people should suddenly start writing songs about Geralt and Triss is ridiculous. It was a no issue for me really, if all NPC went around and said pick Yen, pick Yen, my Geralt would have still ended up with Triss.

I agree about the Cerys thing.

>how Ciri can have blond/light hair when her dad has black ones? genes for light hair aren't dominant, they are recessive.
Recessives can be passed on and expressed despite a parent expressing a dominant phenotype through a variety of ways, including very simple ones like one parent possessing nonexpressed recessive genes. Also the ashen hair is an elven trait. For all we know that IS dominant.

I never said she wasn't and shouldn't, I said that I personally have no problem with her actions and still consider her a good person. And Triss is hardly a villain.

Actually it's funny. While the narrative pushes Yen pretty hard, almost every NPC that talks about her or to her seems to hate her.

>Ciri can be romanced. Ask Skjall. Of course,

I HATE this notion that this brief interaction that happened between Ciri and Skjall was anything resembling a full-fledged romance, be it similar to Geralt's affair with Yen, or even with Triss. No, no, and once again no. The fact there's a perfectly viable option to never kiss him but just thank him and move on should be enough to tip them off... but I guess they are THAT desperate for a self-insert a random guy would do.

This. The only important characters that never express any sign of hostility towards Yen are Rita (who has just minimal amount of interactions with Yen considering they are friends) and... Emhyr?

Except Yennefer wasn't exactly friendly and sociable in the books. Apart from Triss, she only had one friend in Rita, and maybe in Tissaia, but she was her former student. Even sorceresses from the Lodge aren't fond of her -- they all act pretty much hostile when she appears with Francesca.
>>
>>152128456
>Except Yennefer wasn't exactly friendly and sociable in the books.
She could be actually. This is a meme, like "Geralt is autistic". The first impression leaves you with that because the first people you see her interact with besides are a town full of reactionaries that hate her, and the Crinfrid Reavers.

>Apart from Triss, she only had one friend in Rita, and maybe in Tissaia,
>these are the only named characters not fucking her that are relevant to the plot, therefore they are her only friends

Same goes for Philippa who is on her way to collect as many haters as she possible can. CD Projekt weren't subtle with making her appear as a classic villain. At least in the books she was always mild-mannered (save for the one instance when she shouted at Ciri), sometimes even charming and she cracked a few jokes.

The guy that was asking about HoS and B&W earlier tonight here.

I didn't really feel like playing much tonight so I just read some of the books I gathered and stumbled upon an entry written in Dandelion's point of view where he told the story of Geralt and Yen meeting for the first time -- with the genie and the wish and all. That kind of hit me more than I thought it would. I actually felt bad for Geralt and empathized with that short-sighted infatuation. Even as I'm going through Skellige and having my first real interactions with Yen -- Geralt acts like a thirsty motherfucker. I'm trying to stay away from the blatant flirt options but Geralt's already saying shit like "You're so beautiful babe" that Yen seemingly shrugs off indifferently.It feels like desperate puppy love on Geratl's behalf. Made me a bit uncomfortable, actually.

And again, this is the perspective of someone who only played the games and didn't read any of the books -- feel free to call me out if I misinterpreted anything.

Think I'll stop playing tonight. It's going to be hard going through this part of the game because of how much Yennefer reminds me of the situation with my ex. I hate that I had to project that onto a story in a video game.
>>
>>152128297
>But don't even see Yennefer as a love interest? Really?
I mean I acknowledge she is a love interest and all, I just never observe her from a romantic point of view, since I know my Geralt will never pick her. I enjoy other aspects of her character more, and her interactions with Geralt are great regardless, I love pushing her buttons and getting a reaction, and her sarcasm. I always crack up when Geralt makes that stupid joke about Potestaquisitor and she just gives him that look. She is like a fun ex wife to simplify it completely.
>>
>>152128456
Both Triss and Rita could be seen as her bff material given she confessed to them about her problems with Geralt (and seek Margarita's advice on if she should broke up with him or not), which I don't see her doing with people she is even on a friendly terms with. Tissaia was a (strict) mother figure to her, which she held in a high regard ('the school of Tissaia de Vries'). I think she was on a good terms with Francesca too; I know she saved Yen also for the political purpose, but their interactions (including the chit-chat on Thanedd pre-putsch), gives of vibes of two people who know each other well and feel at ease with. She also visited Lytta Neyd aka Coral in SoS but I wouldn't count them as friends afterwards given what had happened with Geralt.
>>

>That kind of hit me more than I thought it would. I actually felt bad for Geralt and empathized with that short-sighted infatuation. Even as I'm going through Skellige and having my first real interactions with Yen -- Geralt acts like a thirsty motherfucker
Reminder that Dandelion blatantly makes stuff up or twists things for dramatic effect. This applies to most journal entries. Do not trust them.. You should read the actual books. Though yeah it started out that way. Sort of. Geralt is thirsty as fuck there yeah and there's nothing you can do about it. It's just who he is.

> that Yen seemingly shrugs off indifferently.
She's not the touchy-feely type. She cracks a smile a couple of times but yeah. She's all business generally.

I wouldn't call it puppy-love. They've been together for ages and he hasn't gotten to spend much time with her in years. So yeah, he got sappy.

>Think I'll stop playing tonight. It's going to be hard going through this part of the game because of how much Yennefer reminds me of the situation with my ex. I hate that I had to project that onto a story in a video game.
That's a sign of good, realistic writing. Ouch though, that has to suck in a way.
>>
>>152128941
>Both Triss and Rita could be seen as her bff material given she confessed to them about her problems with Geralt
I don't remember any big heart to hearts between Triss and Yennefer over Geralt. The only canonical thing I remember about her every talking to anyone else about Geralt is Rita's "Love isn't something you can pick up at the market" thing. She seems too private to really go into it much with others to me.

>I think she was on a good terms with Francesca too; I know she saved Yen also for the political purpose, but their interactions (including the chit-chat on Thanedd pre-putsch),
I didn't get the feeling anything was there beyond general politeness myself. Any line in particular make you feel that way?

Implying the tone of that comic is even remotely hostile as her Triss ones. And Yenfags really kiss up to her constantly on Tumblr, it's a fact, she is a Yenfag hero. Nothing wrong with that though.

Journal is weird in general, since it's from Dandelion's perspective. There's a quest in Hearts of Stone where the journal talks about something haunting Geralt forever but he's really clearly not perturbed in the actual game. They kind of half-assed it too, maybe handed it off to an intern or something. Cut content even turns up in it sometimes.

Except it clearly has a message of Geralt and Yen happy together where Geralt is always bored or disgusted by Triss.

Well, for once Triss had known their relationship was going sour when she decided to jump in and start an affair with Geralt. Secondly, she talks about the fascination she developed over hearing and watching Yen with Geralt, which strongly implies an in depth knowledge of their relationship. It's not like they are all roomates and live in the same place.

>I didn't get the feeling anything was there beyond general politeness myself. Any line in particular make you feel that way?
Just the general vibe I got from their conversation. Francesca knows Yen enough to keep Ida away when Yen is at her lowest, during the transformation from a jade statue to her body scene. She of course warns Yen of the consequences of escaping, but to me if she didn't like Yen or even didn't give a damn about her, she would just keep silent or apply other measures to keep her in check (like securing her necklace for one). She mentions she invited Yen to the Lodge because of Ciri, which could be interpreted as 'I want you on there because you have necessary intel', but also as a way for her to give Yen a way to help Ciri too. She obviously knows those two are very close.

>>152129017
>That's a sign of good, realistic writing. Ouch though, that has to suck in a way.

Yeah, for sure. It adds an extra personal layer to Yennefer for me -- a (more or less) unique experience with the character. Honestly I've been dreading going to Skellige and tried to delay it as much as I could by doing all the Novigrad quests because I knew from the start with the intro that Yen would be resurfacing old wounds. But enough of that.

To be honest, I don't think in those days it was hard for anyone to notice when their relationship soured. Apparently Yennefer could actually make the house shake during arguments.

>Secondly, she talks about the fascination she developed over hearing and watching Yen with Geralt, which strongly implies an in depth knowledge of their relationship. It's not like they are all roomates and live in the same place.
Must have visited a lot.

>Francesca knows Yen enough to keep Ida away when Yen is at her lowest, during the transformation from a jade statue to her body scene
Good point, but doesn't necessarily imply friendship. Just long term knowledge.

>but to me if she didn't like Yen or even didn't give a damn about her, she would just keep silent or apply other measures to keep her in check (like securing her necklace for one).
It's not a deterrent to escape if she doesn't know about it.

> She mentions she invited Yen to the Lodge because of Ciri, which could be interpreted as 'I want you on there because you have necessary intel', but also as a way for her to give Yen a way to help Ciri too. She obviously knows those two are very close.
She's really pro-Ciri in general for some reason... Still, you might be right. Sapkowski kept Francesca very mysterious, so it's hard to tell.
>>
>>152128592
If the author had wanted to show Yen was friendly and sociable, he would have written scenes of her acting as such, or at least have put a passage she has many friends. Like with Triss who was repeatedly described as friendly and easygoing.

And not only Sabrina and Sile dislike Yen, practically everyone in the Lodge. The only ones who doesn't are Assire who doesn't know her, Triss who has this guilt over Geralt and Rita who most likely feels sorry for being her only friend.

He did. In Time of Contempt alone, a the dwarven bank, upon reuniting with Rita and Tissaia, and just general civility at Thanedd (except to Triss) Just people forget them because they spend way more time talking about the books online than actually reading them. That's how you get stuff like Autist Geralt and burn-victim Triss. Easy to remember and funny memes become entrenched instead of the actual content.

>practically everyone in the Lodge.

>>152051116
Same. Yen and Fringilla even ended up hitting it off later evidently, despite the initial hostility. Even the tone of her letter in Vizima seemed fairly cordial. Though that'd probably change if Yen ever found out Fringilla and Geralt were fucking on the regular while Yen was being tortured.

How could Triss know? It's not like she can call Yen's neighbors and asks them if their feel any disturbances. Yen told her they were on the rocks, simple as that.

>Good point, but doesn't necessarily imply friendship. Just long term knowledge.
I never argued they are very good friends, just that there is something more to their relationship that being acquaintances.

>It's not a deterrent to escape if she doesn't know about it
I interpreted this scene as Enid warning her not to make a mistake for her own good, not because she was threatening her simply for the sake of it.

>She's really pro-Ciri in general for some reason... Still, you might be right. Sapkowski kept Francesca very mysterious, so it's hard to tell.
She was definitely on Ciri's camp, or rather on Ciri-must-fulfill-a-certain-destiny camp. Remember how she voted for her without giving bothering to give an explanation? I was so anxious to read a revealing scene of her being in cahoots with Avallac'h. I'd so love to have them meet in the games. I don't even give a crap about 'How would CD Projekt depict the most beautiful woman in the world'. I just want them to talk.

Well she clearly spent time around them. I'm not saying Yennefer kept her totally in the dark or anything. I'm just skeptical she asked relationship advice from someone half her age who had never had a serious relationship.

>I never argued they are very good friends, just that there is something more to their relationship that being acquaintances.
I can agree with that.

I guess I just read her as much colder than you do.

She was cordial to the dwarfs because she had a business to make. She couldn't be hostile to people who are in charge of making her money. She is nice to Rita because she is her (only) friend and to Tissaia and the others at Thanned because she works with them. Everyone else who are beneath her she treats like dirt. Yes, Geralt included.

How convenient of you to forgot she was abusive to Ciri as well.

Yeah, that. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to vent about it. Opening up about it is better than bottling it in I feel. Don't mind being called a fag by a couple of guys on an imageboard.

I'll try not to drag this out. Her and I are both writers. Nothing professional, we just did it on the side while we worked and studied. We would write short stories together and create our own characters. She really liked folklore and dark fantasy settings, so we usually went with that. She took it more seriously than I. Most of the characters I wrote were bumbling fool archetypes (i.e a far less accomplished Dandelion) while she loved writing characters based on the whole concept of the mysterious, beautiful dark-haired female that manipulated those around her, used men like a cruel seductress to get what she wanted...That sort of thind. Thing is she herself was really timid -- super shy, and really low self-esteem. I never told her, but I felt like she was trying to over-compensate for her own personality that she hated so much. I didn't really know how to bring it up so I just kept letting her write these characters. Whenever I see Yennefer, all I can think about is how much my ex would adore her as a character. Even Priscilla's song -- "To dream of raven locks entwisted--" It's a cheesy line yeah, but I swear it's something I've seen her jot down before. She definitely struggled with herself and had a ton of problems.

If I never met her, it would be so easy for me to just write off Yen as a cunt...Since she kind of is. But my ex kind of adds another hard to explain layer to it. It's like second-hand sympathy...I dunno.

You know what, thanks man for reading. And to anyone else. I know it's dumb to self insert myself into these characters but sometimes it's hard not to. It does make me appreciate The Witcher so much more.

You are right, maybe asking for advice is too much, but I believe the other reason why Yen was hurt at Triss hooking up with Geralt is because she confessed about her relationship to and in some way relied on her in such matter. It was more about Triss, not Geralt, betraying her.

>I guess I just read her as much colder than you do.
She can come as such, but there are instances when she either mocks the Lodge (especially Sabrina) in a very subtle but nevertheless sarcastic matter, often laughs or smiles in 'I know more than you' way, or, and especially, the scene of her crying when she realizes she has no other choice but to sent her people to certain death pro publico bono. She is way more complex than she appears at first. I agree Sapkowski kind of wasted potential with her. I always wanted to know why exactly she got behind Vilgefortz apart from the Nilfgaardian connection and the premise of establishing her nation. Did she know he was planning to double-cross them and just played along?

>You just know they fucked at one point.

Thing is she herself was really timid -- super shy, and really low self-esteem. I never told her, but I felt like she was trying to over-compensate for her own personality that she hated so much.
Yeah. I mean, I haven't been there or read her stuff obviously, but sounds like it was a power fantasy for her.

>If I never met her, it would be so easy for me to just write off Yen as a cunt...Since she kind of is. But my ex kind of adds another hard to explain layer to it. It's like second-hand sympathy...I dunno.
I have a lot of crap t say about this that has been aid before a lot. Yennefer can be a cunt sometimes, no question. Especially in the first two books. But in Skellige...thing is, Yennefer loves Ciri. And while she puts on a strong front, she's absolutely desperate to find her. Did you talk to everyone at the feast? Her face when she hears that death prophecy from whats-his-name, before she manages to collect herself and dismiss it with a joke? She's quite afraid. So yeah, she takes opposition and delays very seriously and tries to bull through it.

Thing is...it's an open world game. Almost nowhere else is this urgency reflected. So she's pretty much alone in it. Combine this with every NPC in the game telling you what a cunt she is, and it makes it easy to get the wrong impression.

>I know it's dumb to self insert myself into these characters
It can be hard not too sometimes, but I recommend you try not to. This premade character offers unique roleplaying opportunities.

Cliche? When Triss was described as having burn marks all over her body? When Yen scolded, teased and ridiculed Ciri? When it was explicitly written how the lodge was hostile to Yennefer?

>>152131348
>but I believe the other reason why Yen was hurt at Triss hooking up with Geralt is because she confessed about her relationship to and in some way relied on her in such matter.
I think it was more a trust thing? I mean Triss was her friend. But you may be right. If she did open up, something that is rare for her, it would sting all the more.

>She can come as such, but there are instances when she either mocks the Lodge (especially Sabrina) in a very subtle but nevertheless sarcastic matter, often laughs or smiles in 'I know more than you' way,
Yeah. I love that snide "Remember ladies, we're the superior sex" after the cat fight that started Phlippa and Margarita's speeches about how irrational men are compared to women.

>the scene of her crying when she realizes she has no other choice but to sent her people to certain death pro publico bono.
Yeah, true. She does put on a facade that she's colder than she really is (though to a much lesser extent than Philippa, I think, who only has a few remaining glimmers of non-feigned humanity). But I do think she's really quite ruthless.

> I agree Sapkowski kind of wasted potential with her. I always wanted to know why exactly she got behind Vilgefortz apart from the Nilfgaardian connection and the premise of establishing her nation. Did she know he was planning to double-cross them and just played along?
I think she probably did but that's just my feeling. He really did neglect a lot of subplots in the last books. Or even drop them entirely. I mean we never really do know for sure what tries to possess Ciri. I mean it's maybe Falka but then there's all Yen's talk of "Chaos". Whatever that is.

How exactly did Vilgefortz double-cross Francesca? And how did you get the felling she was really behind him? She's always played her own game afaic. He was a necessary evil to content with, just like Emhyr, and she drops support for him as soon as the deed's done.

Absolutely, yes. Which is quite baffling it was rarely if ever brought up during their interactions sans Geralt. They seemed to work in unison, without frictions, or even perfectly reasonable doubts about Triss' true loyalty on Yen's side.

>Yeah. I love that snide "Remember ladies, we're the superior sex" after the cat fight that started Phlippa and Margarita's speeches about how irrational men are compared to women.
Or her bringing up Tissaia's concern over smallfolk when Filippa was presenting war as the rationale measure towards overpopulation.

>Yeah, true. She does put on a facade that she's colder than she really is (though to a much lesser extent than Philippa, I think, who only has a few remaining glimmers of non-feigned humanity). But I do think she's really quite ruthless.
She must be considered her age and what she has experienced in life with her being very involved in the genetic engineering and possible other magical research, which aren't exactly the beacon of morality as depicted in SoS. I found it very interesting when she casually remarked her biological father spurned her... why? Are all male elves deadbeat? To me, it is a subtle way for Sapkowski to once again emphasizes the split in Francesca's persona over what is elvish (her origin, her role as the queen of them) and magic (her position in the all-human magic organization, her being involved in human politics and conducting research on them, how her counterparts view her as being inferior to human head of states such as Emhyr).

TW3 can never decide if it wants to be a sequel to the books or not. In some ways Triss in TW3 is an entirely different character than in the books or even the preceding games.

>She must be considered her age and what she has experienced in life
If Philippa and Avallac'h are any kind of example, this seems a common theme among people that live a long time. Or they just end up very listless like Auberon.

He went full meta with the last book, same with his fascination with Arthurian legends and how shoe-horned they are in the witcher series. More subtlety would be much appreciated. I agree the Falka taking over Ciri plot was completely dropped. I'd rather have her fight with her soul representing the struggle over her destiny set by past deeds of her ancestors and her will to be a being on her own, but alas, we get Bonhart and the great slaughter of the hansa.

>I bet they at the least made out during the apparently mandatory "experimental" phase all bored mages go through.
Definitely, though now they are very much straight. Only Sabrina is more straight in the Lodge. Oh, and Sheala, but she seems research-sexual, no matter the sudden retcon i TW2.

I mean double-cross Emhyr, and in turn everyone who would side with Nilfgaard over him. Agreed she played her own game and always had the elfish state agenda on her mind.

>TW3 can never decide if it wants to be a sequel to the books or not. In some ways Triss in TW3 is an entirely different character than in the books or even the preceding games.
Yeah, but even if they completely ignored the books, Yen should be suspicious over Triss working pretty close with the Lodge in TW1 and seemingly vouching for Philippa when she was chased by the entire Redania.

>If Philippa and Avallac'h are any kind of example, this seems a common theme among people that live a long time. Or they just end up very listless like Auberon.
I suppose they are either fed up with living and on the verge of dropping dead any minute like Hen and Auberon, or detached and focused on an agenda they have developed throughout the years like Francesca and Philippa. Then you have Tissaia who appears somewhat normal despite or maybe moreso because of her Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
>>
To the Francesca-anon and the rest: I always wondered why Geralt thought her smile was frightening/creepy. I know elves have no canines but he has interacted with them before and never brought that up, meaning he was not bothered with how they teeth looked like.
>>
>>152132650
I'm not sure how much she was aware of Vilgefortz's plan to begin with, or how much she was on board with it. Really, I assume he mostly served as a connection to Emhyr, I'm also not sure how much she really had it in for Tissaia and the lot. She's kind of a Philippa in how single-minded she is, just with different goals (probably why she doesn't like her much ;) ).

She would be more suspicious if she wasn't.

In the next sentence Geralt thinks how Tissaia smiled to him less beautiful but more sincere, so I think the scary part is how fake Francesca was. That, or some sort of uncanny valley-ish feeling given her absolutely beauty coupled with inhuman traits (pointed ears, very youthful appearance contrary to her real age, etc.)

>>
>>152133464
>Tissaia was blind and deaf. She would never figure Vilgefortz was plotting something even if said plot kicked her in the rear.
So how did she know to ask Yennefer help the night before the coup? She clearly didn't trust him in her PoV. She jut seems to have underestimated him and decided he was the lesser evil after speaking with the Royalists.

>>
>>152133464
I always get the impression Tissaia knew something was up with Vilgerfortz, see: her pov chapter in BoE. She just didn't know the grand scale of his plot. She was in denial over how much the magic brotherhood was divided over the pro-Northern Kingdom faction, the pro-Nilfgaard one and the ones who wanted to stay neutral and away from the politics. Speaking of, I feel like Rita's sudden loyalty towards Philippa and how she was the first to jump at the opportunity of founding Lodge were not explained at all and felt like Sapkowski just added her there for no reason other than to have 12 members in total?
>>
>>152133558
>She clearly didn't trust him in her PoV.
She clearly did (although she had some mild suspicions, I assume, from earlier convo with him). She didn't trust Philippa and her lot, hence why she downed the barrier and released Vilgefortz.
Terrible lapse of judgement.

>>
>>152133950
I'd say the fact Vilgefortz had Francesca in his team was the crucial reason. Tissaia was clearly upset over Philippa and Co. detaining Enid and it was the first time they really confronted each other. She didn't even listen to Enid basically telling them to stfu as in more or less admitting herself to be guilty, she already too emotional to be reasoned with. I'd say if she wasn't there and didn't see firsthand how the coup was being carried out, Philippa might have a better chance at at least keeping her away from interfering.

She is already playing it in her mind, a threesome with her two favorite people in the world, it's her dream. That threesome would be most pleasurable for Triss anyway, I don't see Geralt and Phil getting it on, so they would probably just double team Triss.

Just use one of every weather card, and as many spies as you have

try to get rid of all your non legendary ranged units if you're using northern empires or whatever and you can auto draw fog

the game is incredibly simple and is based pretty much entirely on draw power, if you can't figure it out god help you anon

also decoys can be great to reuse enemy spies and gain some card advantage

>the emperor is fucking dunny

This is literally the dumbest fucking twist I've seen in quite some time.

I'm not even sure if I want to play the games now, since I'm fucking tired of Geralt and Yen's bullshit by now and I've heard Ciri doesn't show up until the third.
>>
>>152198742
I don't understand, what is the twist?
>>
>>152198936
That Ciri's dad is alive, lied about his identity, and is the emperor - and is also a former friend of Geralt. All this without a single bloody person somehow knowing or word spreading that the former husband of the former heir apparent to Cintra is leading the invading Empire.

It just feels so incredibly, massively forced and I can't think of a single thing that hinted at it before this book.
>>
>>152198742
Yen doesn't show up until the third game as well and Geralt is fairly different to the books for the first game because he has amnesia, if that helps.

You can also continue to roleplay him fairly differently for the second and third, too, including telling Yen to fuck off and going for a Triss or bachelor ending.

I don't think most people that got the Empress ending would appreciate the joke/insult if it was meant as one. It's just a fuckup we need to accept.

Also Witcheress Ciri taking Black Blood. And the terrible Waifu visit dialogue

>>152161602
They went full Bioware. Every ending is ultimately right because the player is the moral center of the universe and cannot be wrong.

>>152162447
Those stories of powerful spirits with power over crossroads have pre-Christian roots. Witcher setting has always been set up more or less like something resembling Slavic paganism persisted to the early modern period. In addition, they went to great pains to keep him myterious and "Literaly Satan lel" ruins it even if you don't consider the weird cosmological issues it introduces to the setting (the Witcher has no God or Jesus but it has a Lucifer? How fucked is everything?)

A conversation between Ciri and Yen isn't necessarily pandering given their relationship is important to them. It depends on how they wrote the dialogue.

Aerondight scene almost killed me with nostalgia, but yeah, that is the best scene in that expansion.

>>152200243
>Was he a brilliant mastermind ruthless enough to risk his entire race just to remove his political rivals, or is he just a walking plothole?

He became a walking plothole once he decided not to betray Geralt and Ciri, otherwise, if he actually betrayed them, he would be the best antagonist in the game series.
>>
>>152199985
>Triss' dialogue was good.
It was about what you'd expect from Triss so at least it's not out of character.

>At least you got this part right.
It's not a good thing though. I initially got into the Witcher because it was actually possible to fuck up. I did it myself more than a few times. That uncertainty and drama was wonderful.

>>152200005
>Give me elves that have Elder Blood Ashen hair other than Auberon.
Actually now that you say this I wonder if the ashen hair is linked to one or more of the Elder Blood genes.
>>
>>152200673
Not that anon, but I have a theory that Vilgefortz went full retard after the explosion of the portal because a piece of the mirror got inside an area of the brain that made him go absolutely nuts, would explain why the fuck he became a boring character from a potentially really awesome character and his retarded desire to actually do the stuff he wanted to do for Ciri to become the master of Time and Space.
>>
>>152200695
He still has the honor of being the only one to think of saying "Please" to Ciri and thus getting her to do whatever he wanted.
>>
>>152199190
I know anon.
He even says something like: ''lel, even some people who knew Duny couldn't see it was me''.
Shut up, you fucking hedgehog. They probably knew it, but didn't want to say to your face, you cursed daughter-fucker.

One thing is certain, all female carries of this gene have ashen hair, for males like Alvin it seems the rule does not apply.

Alvin was just a Source. He didn't have Elder Blood.
>>
>>152201224
Yeah, at least the rest of the book was fucking awesome.

The Stand even outright says this. Something about how he wasn't the Devil, but he knew him and they'd shared council.

Ah yes, forgot that non-Elder Blood sources also exist.

I've only skimmed the fan translation so I have to take your word for it ;_;

>>152201758
Was Falka one of those? I was never clear what her deal was, other than she didn't have Elder Blood and apparently has permanently tainted the line thanks to the daughter-switch (which Francesca chooses to lie about, interestingly)
>>
>>152201789
Ciri being in the Aen Elle World, Battle of Brenna was intense, Toussaint (though it did drag on a bit), and Stygga battle were really good, not to mention the damn last chapter.

A shame Vilgefortz went to shit.
>>
>>152202080
I'm ok with him going full supervillain and trying to become God Emperor even. It fits. I just wish they hadn't dropped all those cool parallels between him and Geralt and his undying hatred towards sorceresses. They were interesting traits.
>>
>>152200918
>It was about what you'd expect from Triss so at least it's not out of character.
It was actually less cheesy than I expected. A very nice convo overall.

>I initially got into the Witcher because it was actually possible to fuck up.
You can still do it, on my first playthrough I fucked up on several things, Annabelle tricked me, I failed to catch the real killer in Carnal Sins, I didn't kill Radovid, I released the three spirit...I made some other choices that had consequences I didn't like, but I liked that the game has that. I never felt like loading back and changing it, it felt natural to fuck up sometimes.

I do think every ending is right, if a person playing it finds it right, but it can also be wrong if you get an outcome you feel is not what makes sense or what you wanted. It doesn't make either option universally right or wrong. The choices I made and weren't happy with someone else will consider right and defend them for x reasons, and that's fine.
>>
>>152202249
>You can still do it, on my first playthrough I fucked up on several things
It's only in side quests.

>I released the three spirit
That's not a fuck up. She Who Knows did nothing wrong.

>if a person playing it finds it right,
muh death of the author is no excuse for shit writing and shit rping
>>
>>152201939
I only remember that Fiona was Falka's real daughter, and Fiona is an ancestor of Ciri, so Falka must have had Elder Blood.
>>
>>152202201
Agreed.
>>
>>152202435
>I only remember that Fiona was Falka's real daughter, and Fiona is an ancestor of Ciri, so Falka must have had Elder Blood.
No. Falka did not have Elder Blood, but she snuck her lineage into the line via her daughter.
>>
>>152202581
Have to do some re-reading if that is the case, but I never really cared about following geneologies in stories.
>>
>>152202363
>It's only in side quests.
You can get the bad dad ending, some would consider that a fuck up.

>That's not a fuck up
I'm not too keen on the spirit, although I find the Baron hanging himself a nice conclusion to his arc.

>muh death of the author is no excuse for shit writing and shit rping
CDPR is is the one you should blame, you are playing their interpretation, not Sapkowski's and people should have the freedom to RP in a an RPG at least to some degree, even if they play a predetermined character.
>>
>>152202785
>Have to do some re-reading if that is the case, but I never really cared about following geneologies in stories.
It's very poorly presented in the big chapter in Time of Contempt that goes over it, and it's easy to get distracted by Sapkowski's bizarre view of genetics. I had to read it several times to get it. I don't blame people for thinking Falka had Elder Blood but it's become one of those very widespread fan myths.
>>
>>152202878
>although I find the Baron hanging himself a nice conclusion to his arc.
Yeah people hate it because he dies but I think it's the best written version of the whole Family Matters arc. And at least Anna gets some last lucid moments with her family. But 4chan hates Anna so I guess that doesn't factor into their assessment.

>CDPR is is the one you should blame,
I do.

>not Sapkowski's and people should have the freedom to RP in a an RPG at least to some degree, even if they play a predetermined character.
I agree. And CDPR in some cases did very good in allowing choices to be understandable for an in-character Geralt even when they mutually conflict. I think the Tree Spirit decision is one of those. Same for Roche vs. Iorveth. But when that's not the case, I absolutely will call out their writers.

I mean honestly, did even one even say "this priest seems legit "and leave Sweet Nettie to get viciously tortured? Why is that even an option?
>>
>>152203203
>I mean honestly, did even one even say "this priest seems legit "and leave Sweet Nettie to get viciously tortured? Why is that even an option?

Pissing off too many Eternal Fire priests or killing an "important" one in a whorehouse where word might slip on who did it might bring unnecessary trouble for Geralt and his friends, might be a good reason, but yeah, killed the fire fetishist just like Geralt killed Azar Javed, another fire fetishist.
>>
>>152203203
>I think it's the best written version of the whole Family Matters arc
I agree.

>Why is that even an option?
That famed witcher neutrality, but yeah, I doubt many people choose that. Kind of like sparing Whoreson, if he wasn't in a room with a bunch of prostitutes he just tortured to death maybe it would be different.
>>
>>152203720
Is the whorehouse gonna narc on him? I doubt he was at all popular there. They were already hiding a succubus, too.
>>
>>152203856
>Geralt
>neutral
ayy lmao

>Kind of like sparing Whoreson
I hate this option but not so much for Geralt as because it provokes an extremely OOC Ciri later. No way the Ciri we saw in most of the series would ever be convinced to spare him.
>>
>>152203889
Bitch hunters have their ways, if that priest is evidence to go by, doubt they would stay silent for long.
>>
>>152204110
They'd have to find out that's where he was last seen. The guy was keeping it quiet because of how bad it would look. The madame probably would just wait till nightfall and dump him in the harbor.
>>
>>152204004
>I hate this option but not so much for Geralt as because it provokes an extremely OOC Ciri later. No way the Ciri we saw in most of the series would ever be convinced to spare him.

She does have a very long lasting smirk at him when she sees how bad his life is, so maybe she like Lambert with the elf in the tavern, saw no point in ending their misery.
>>
>>152204004
>No way the Ciri we saw in most of the series would ever be convinced to spare him.
Yeah, and it's not like Whoreson has any redeeming qualities, he is the most one dimensional character in the game.
>>
>>152204329
It ends up that way, sure, but it was still risky to kill that priest, even if the entire whorehouse will support Geralt and stay quiet about it, I have no doubt some Witch hunters knew about the succubus, but a bribe her and there, a night with the succubus here and there kept them quiet about her.
>>
>>152204361
>She does have a very long lasting smirk at him when she sees how bad his life is, so maybe she like Lambert with the elf in the tavern, saw no point in ending their misery.
Lambert just uses that to save face I think. He does kill her if Geralt doesn't stop him IIRC, if Geralt DOES stop him says something later about Selyse like "She didn't have you there to protect her".

>>152204383
He's a fucking serial killer. Only thing you can say about him is it's at least partially the fault of his awful abusive father. But the man he grew into is totally irredeemable.
>>
>>152204527
Huh, can't you hear one in ambient dialogue near the putrid grove talking about how he misses "ploughing freaks"?

tfw Triss kept up the deal with the King of Beggars by letting him pimp out sorceresses

>>152204650
Leave Madame Triss alone.

>>152204530
>Lambert just uses that to save face I think. He does kill her if Geralt doesn't stop him IIRC, if Geralt DOES stop him says something later about Selyse like "She didn't have you there to protect her".

Well a madame of a well-known whorehouse would most likely have henchmen to stop him, no way to save face then other than pure vengeance.

>>152204650
There was a Witch Hunter officer taking a bride outside the grove though, so you are right, King of Beggars may have been whoring out some of them.
>>
>>152204956

It's called "A Gifted Man Brings Gifts Galore". Check out the lyrics, it's pretty rad.
Though the vocals on the version you posted is a bit different.

A Gifted Man Brings Gifts Galore is a different track. This is just the kid's singing spliced on top of Whatsoever a Man Soweth.

No. There's I think four different body types and Ciri actually has a unique one that is much longer limbed and more clearly muscled.

I don't seem to have saved the comparison pic between Yennefer Ciri Triss and Keira, sadly.
