1:40 Emhyr knows he's in command, but doesn't get his feathers ruffled by having suggestions from underlings. He sees the wisdom in it and takes the advice. One of the things in the Witcher lore that makes him such a formidable ruler.
@@TsarOfRuss People are slowly coming around to the idea that video games can, and should, be considered art. Some is better than others and the best can draw serious emotions.
Funny, Emhyr says all he would have to do is beckon and his guards would kill Geralt. And yet, in the topic of Ciri’s whereabouts: With all of the soldiers, influencers, spies and assassins at Emhyr’s command, in the end none of that helped him find Ciri, not even a trace on her movements. Meanwhile, Geralt managed to learn more than all of the power and influence Emhyr has, combined. The way I see it: Emhyr was in more need of Geralt than the other way around.
DredgenDare Irrelavant. Emhyr told Geralt, gave him the leads. But that is it. The importance of Emhyr becomes absolutely irrelevant afterwards. No matter how much he talks, Geralt and Yen are the only ones who can find Ciri. Without them, Emhyr has absolutely nothing. Killing Geralt leaves Emhyr with nothing. In fact, even gives a victory to the Wild Hunt. So, again, Geralt still has the upper hand. With all of this in mind, I fail to see Emhyr’s importance.
Plus how many guards would it take to kill Geralt, really? I don't know how many are in the palace, but I don't know if there are enough. One lowly guard is about as much threat as a drowner, Geralt reguarly fights a dozen of those at a time.
@@BigUriel in the game sure. With in game mechanics. But considering how strong actual guards would be compared to a Witcher. Having 15 or more jump geralt would Sven with casualties surely kill him. And if need be he would deploy more.
Most badass character. I'm a tiny bit disappointed by the actor playing him in the Netflix series, but then again, Charles Dance is too old to play him.
Yeah I get what you mean. I personally think he looks fine, its just the epic voice that he misses. If im honest the show does a lot of injustice to the world anyway. My god only finnaly now have they started fixing the armors. I fucking hated the scrotum armor nilfgaard had. But still it looks like some MMORPG armor they all wear. what was so nice about the witcher was that it was low fantasy and high fantasy at the same time since the witcher world and ours share the same humans, one of them just wound up in a different world. therefore things looks and feel like our world a bit
@@carrottoponcrak no that's what I was looking for i wanted to see what happened, jus curious. I finally eventually ended up finding it an beat that game plus both dlc on death march a few weeks ago. Awesome game btw. Moved on to dragon quest elusive age. This game also is proving to be really good!
@@Alucard45000 I always chose the options that were flippant when talking to elves mages or pretty much anyone in power the only exceptions being Crach and Ermion. My head canon Geralt is not one for ceremony or bowing blindly to authority
@@emerystheimmortal417 I think in canon he isn't going to really bow to anyone of his own will anyway, I'm in the prosess of reading the books now and from what i have heard from lore he isn't agains torturing to get information.
I would have love to have this optional dialog : Geralt : Emperor, let me introduce you what I presume now to be your daughter Ciri. Ciri ? Uma : Umaaaa ? Geralt : Be a nice girl and give a kiss to you daddy... Emhyr : o_O'
He's the world's most powerful man with its most powerful army at his command. He also knows Geralt better than that. Its not the first time they've met after all. Besides, even if Geralt snapped and slew him Emhyr knows full well that he would not make it out of there alive. Even on the off chance he did he would be hunted for the rest of his life.
@@UnderseaPumaKing lol he can kill a higher vampire , a higher vampire can take down armies. Apart from mages no one in that castle can stop garalt . He can easily Butcher everyone there . Besides even with your argument , yen is still there to teleport him out
@@flashback0180 Putting aside game mechanics, in lore it's not that easy for Geralt to make it out alive. Remember that in the books Geralt was killed by a mob of peasants; what do you think a battalion of Nilfgaard's finest royal guards would do to Geralt? Besides, even if Yen was able to teleport herself and Geralt to safety, there's no way the largest empire in the world would have let it slide. They would be hunted by assassins and spies for the rest of their lives, and with Emyhr dead, there's nobody important and rich left that cares about Ciri, and Geralt's importance to Nilfgaard would be over. Geralt isn't just a brute, he's smart and knows that he needs Emhyr as much as Emhyr needs him. But that doesn't stop his hate for Emhyr and how far he can push him before he snaps back.
That guy sure likes to make a lot of bigmouthed threats for someone in steelsword range... Does he really think the 3 guards that are in the room would save him?
@Michele La Mura oh, another booktard, buddy the books and the game are completely different series, many things differ and you're under a video about the games. The games aren't extensions of the books.
@Michele La Mura The games are based on the books, doesn't mean every single thing in the games is the same, many things are changed. Guess you've never watched movies that were based on real stories and easily 50% of the movie ends up being made up and just the idea of it was inspired by the real story. I don't see how my argument implies in any way I'm too lazy to read a book, just because I said something you dislike xD
"A horse would never make it down that mountain"
Nope...but a Skyrim horse would!
A Dragon Age horse would too
😂😂😂
"A Lion doesn't concern himself with opinions of a sheep"
Geralt and Yennefer: What?
Emhyr: Sorry wrong character
I wonder what would happen if the Witcher and Game of Thrones universes merged?

Hes a good ruler, I thought he was evil at first but it seems he isnt that bad.
“Yet in my daughters stead, you bring me this monstrosity?” Lmaooooo couldn’t help but roar in laughter. Emhyr has no chill
Love the voice actor for Ehymer
It's twyin lanister (Charles dance)
@@jazztec4255 I know. Thanks.
As soon as I heard him I was like hell yeah
@@SPACEHARICE same... And the Bloody Baron as well!
Tywin Lannister with a mullet.

Clearly, she's never been to Skyrim.
God, I love Emhyr, such a badass character
Good, I was not the only one to think like that.
@@Ezekiel_Kleyer I like him too.
even Charles Dance was impressed, he didnt believe a video game could be this serious according to him
Yeah, I always make him win

When he said do you want me to order my guards I woulda said “go ahead they won’t get in here quick enough to save you so do what you wanna do”
It has to be a smart threat. He knows you wouldn't do it. You're not Lambert
@@heatseeker9573 How do you know he wouldn't do it?
@@robertasgar6387 He literally had no point of doing it,why throw away your life with yennefer and ciri just to show him the middle finger

y’know it’s actually him right? He’s literally Emhyr’s voice actor!!

That was my first and only choice, I never take ciri to him either.
She never asked to see him so we never did.

3:43 Ehymer had to have been under a lot of stress to tell Geralt (a nordling) that
I always loved how Gerald scolded Yennifer for being too meek during the emperors audience.
Yeah, he literally ended up saying what i was thinking at that moment and it was so perfect.
I'm surprised Emhyr can act so tough. He knows damn well Geralt could easily kill him without breaking a sweat.
He's the world's most powerful man with its most powerful army at his command. He also knows Geralt better than that. Its not the first time they've met after all.

@@UnderseaPumaKing Exactly, Geralt knows that killing Emhyr is not a Smart move
It's pretty much the cold war MAD idea.
@@UnderseaPumaKing lol he can kill a higher vampire , a higher vampire can take down armies.

Man that Ursine armour fits so well in the setting of Skellige, tough battles there
To be fair, I also know when Yennefer needs to swallow it.
Ho ho ho.
I'm 40 years old, wtf am I doing here ..
This cutscene didnt play for me... Not sure why. I chose to report to him but never got this cut
I didn't bother to take Ciri to him at my first playthrough, nothing happened.
I'm feel scared when this emperor talking
Why does this guy remind me of Tywin Lannister he acts just like him
2:15 Uma : *dabs*
Thanks for showing both options. That’s mainly what I wanted to know
OMG THATS CHARLES DANCE! ok I'm sold
Emhyr: This is Ciri? I can’t fuck this thing
Yararığın selamlama şekli mükemmel
That guy sure likes to make a lot of bigmouthed threats for someone in steelsword range...
Does he really think the 3 guards that are in the room would save him?
Only here coz I’m representing this guy in Gwent lol
Yennefer DEFINETLY knows when to swallow 😏
Ngl, I was kind of dick to Emyhr.
Is it agood choice?
That has any effect to the story?
Definitely. But, I'm wondering, did you come here after watching the series or are you in the middle of a playthrough?
@@tarkenesinal5384 You didn't ask me bu for me the answer would be neither.
ofc not
Yennefers loyalty is to Emhyr and herself. Not to Geralt, nor Ciri.
Lol no, Yen was willing to kill herself with Geralt together for the safety of Ciri and she almost died for Geralt too.
@@Kallelinski she had a stunning change of character, as displayed in your video.
I agree about the other things, though I disagree that she doesn't care about Ciri.
