This trailer is good in many ways, but the best part is the vampire's song. Her lyrics suggest Geralt is no different from her. The video begins with her singing of humans lying wide-awake at night fearing ghouls, hags, and wraiths. She ends the song singing of 'monsters' lying wide-awake at night, fearing Witchers. She says, "It's all silent for the night...but one soul lies anxious, wide-awake. For the Witcher... paid in coin of gold, he'll chop and slice, he'll cut and dice, he'll eat you up whole, eat you whole." In short, good and evil is relative. This video does not depict an epic fight between good and evil, but instead a fight between two entities simply trying to survive in a world wrought with madness. This is perhaps most evident in their sympathetic talk before the fight. They're not enemies, just casualties of circumstance.
Well, great sociological commentary (it really is), until you experience the real encounter of those two in the game which was a prelude to the situation in this trailer; ] Geralt saying "They payed me for you"? Nah, he was very much inclined to visit her without payment
I mean if you listen to the whole song she's singing about witchers the whole time, and the implication of the 'folk have forgotten it' line implies its a human song. Not really surprising considering that Witchers ARE basically just viewed as monsters by common people anyway, they're just monsters who kill other monsters for coin. The song is more or less just conveying that witchers to normal folk are as dangerous as anything else and only cause pain and misery, so you should stay away from them.
You guys have no idea how awesome it is to see fking entire world talking about Witcher, when I have been basically raised on the world of Witcher :) Greetings from Poland!
ah man, i really wish i could somehow forget games like these and play it like it was the first time, but it was so good i still remember every detail after a year. Man CD project is probably the best game developing studio in the world right now, im really excited what they're gonna do with cyberpunk project.
dandini0698 yeh man i wanna buy the collectors edition my friend had the i completed the storry and then i gave it to them he sold now i wish i would've bought it from him, its one of those games which is just close to your heart witcher 3 and until dawn also for me :)
After seeing countless number films with reactions I must say this: YOU ARE THE ONLY TRUE FAN OF THIS SERIES AMONG UA-camRS. Respect. All the best for you.
This cinematic was extremely well done, the cgi was top notch and like you said it really captured the essence of what the Witcher series is about. I love how the bruxa(vampire) is singing this lullaby like song that makes the Witchers out to be the monsters, and It kinda left me feeling sorry for the "monster" in the end. It really does speak to the running theme in the series of the monster is not always an inhuman creature but rather a very human one, and the Withchers i.e Geralt straddle that gray line in between. Can't wait for this game, just finished reading Blood of Elves and you should really consider finishing it before the game as it really delves into Ciri's relationship with Geralt, Yennefer, and even Triss.
Miguel Garcia It can't be a bruxa! A bruxa can stand the light of day well. The creature we saw had its flesh burnt by the sun...but like the djinn in the bottle, it must be called something.
My friend and I stated that same thing. This universe has enough material to make a show. HBO should produce it once GOT is off the air. Everyone and I do mean everyone who watched GOT would watch it. By far the best trailer released this year. Geralt is my hero.
Joe Goudeau witcher does not have the depth of GoT imo, but the world of witcher is excellent though. I actually feel the closer comparison of witcher would be lord of the rings or harry potter then GoT.
In my opinion, the Saga books are much more important than the short stories themselves, because large parts of them are told from Ciri's perspective, and Ciri is arguably the main character in the story, all events revolve around her. There are 2 short stories, 1 in each collection, that set up the entire arc, those being "A Question of Price" and "Something More". So for a speed read just to prepare for Wild Hunt, I would read those 2, and then read the Saga, though it's most likely too late to start now.
Daniel Andersen Yes I would recommend the same and really it is not too late. It's not like you are forced to play the game on launch. The books aren't that long. Takes around 7-10 hours to read one book if I had to guess.
Merdo195 I would agree, if the last 2 books and Sword of Destiny didnt require you to read on a monitor or tablet since for me, my reading speed was reduced dramatically when I switched from paper after Baptism of Fire, read the first 4 books, including Last Wish in about 3 days, then read Tower of the Swallow, Lady of the Lake and (mistakenly) finished with Sword of Destiny, which took me about another 5 days to read on a borrowed iPad. Though I will second the opinion that the fan translations are remarkedly well done, I expected them to be almost unreadable, and they were very close to the official translations in my opinion.
***** I completely agree that reading all the short stories is a good idea, I was simply suggesting skipping some of the less essential ones if limited on time. I know nothing about Season of Storms, other than that it hasn't been translated yet, so I haven't had the chance to read it.
Holy crap. You react the best I’ve seen and have the most awesome merchandise backdrop. And yet this is from 5 years ago? I can’t wait to binge your reactions starting now!
Every time I get excited about a cinematic. I get so happy and everyone things I'm over exaggerating. I love that you had the same somewhat emotional experience I did. Again keep up the good work on your videos. I'm almost done finishing them :)
LOOL Just this morning i was searching for reactions to this final cinematic and I was wondering when you will do it and BOOOM.. chrismas :D Also... MY BODY IS READY.
You are great :) As a native Polish I've been reading these books back in 2002 or 2003 when the series of 5 books came out, and shortly it became my beloved story. I loved the characters, atmosphere and dark humor. Back then i couldn't even think that The Witcher game will ever be released, and to be honest I didn't care because the books were so freaking good. I don't know if the english version of books is equally entertaining, but I can tell you from my point of view that the original version is just a masterpiece. I often coming back to this titles. Best regards from Ireland. ;)
+Michal T. I have read the whole saga twice, and I have to say that, as an entertainment product, games are way better than books. I´m sick of reading polish fanboys saying that those novels are the best since Lord of the Rings. Sarkowsky made a great job by creating the characters and the "universe" (and CD Project a better job by recreating it in the game), but altogether, is a very crappy saga of books. At least half of the content of the novels is superfluous. Sarkowsky artificially lengthen the saga just for selling more books. The whole story of Ciri, the elves, the prophecy, etc. don´t have any importance for the outcome of the story and, at the end, it seems that he just get tired of Geralt and kill the main characters just because.
+Rohan Smirnoff Depend what you like, for me Lord of The Rings books are childish and boring. I don't have to defend Sapkowski's books because their popularity and bunch of praizes speaks for itself.
That cinematic is absolutely incredible!! CDPR always nails it. I would watch the hell out of a whole TV series in that trailer's style or a new live action show on HBO or Starz written by the writers at CDPR (maybe even Sapkowski would get on board?). These Witcher game/Witcher book talk videos are awesome!! Thank you and can't wait for new ones.
You know what? I love listening to you talking about the Witcher. That's because The Witcher is a polish creation and I'm Polish, too. It's like I'm proud that so many people love not only the Witcher games, but books as well. :D Hearing this passion and excitement in your voice is just.. wow. :)
I found your channel because of your recent reaction to the second trailer of The Witcher coming to Netflix in just over a month. I have never played the game, but have watched a few people play it (via UA-cam). I finished The Last Wish a week ago, and am now 93% finished with Sword of Destiny. I’m loving it. I have all the books in ePub & audiobook (really great to do both). I’m not sure I’ll read Blood of Elves before December 20th, but I may. I have some other books in the queue before it. I love your enthusiasm. Thanks.
I remember when i first played Homeworld. The opening with Samuel Barbers Agnus Dei, space and godly music... games is art and the Witcher is a return to that.
Someone may have already said it. But the rhyme shes singing is about the Witchers themselves being monsters. And not just towards a "real" monster, but in the sense that the Witchers are less than human, dark and near supernatural. One of the few, in my opinion, great video game trailers. Whos subtlety is missed by most people. Nice to see you picked up on it from the beginning, (of the series).
I've read all the available books now, either the official or fan translations, they are all great. So glad I took notes throughout though, because there is so much to remember. Great series, as usual, and I look forward to seeing more of it.
Thank you so much for these videos, I'm a huge fan of The Witcher series , Been reading and playing the game since part 1 came out .. Thank you so much , it actually feels good to see that i am not the only one who's into this game and books :), Again thanks for Everything, Gamermd83!
You are the best, MD! Seriously, I'm on this crazy binge of Withcer 3 reaction videos (because I'm getting ready to re-play the trilogy), and you are literally the best when it comes to the knowledge of the lore and the genuine excitement for the game. Not to mention you read the books! Which makes me wonder - have you finished the whole series? The books are just amazing, I listened to the audio-book version (from audible) - and that is extremely well read as well, I highly recommend it. :)
I fell in love with the series when I played the first one on my laptop and bought a gtx580 and dell u2711 for the witcher2... now, I didn't just preorder the collector's edition but also upgraded with a 3440x1440 monitor and a TitanX gpu on my rig... spending more than $3,500 for that game is gonna be sooo well worth it!
Yeah, I love how Geralt isn't just some OP magic swordsman. He's like that because he had to do research, prepare, drink a shit ton of magic drugs to kill monsters. One thing people don't comment about on this trailer though is the SONG she was singing. Its as if its a scary lullaby/folk tale passed around monsters that he's going to EAT you. Witchers FUCKING EAT monsters, which is a REALLY cool concept which I kind of wished they shoved in our faces more because that is fucking metal.
Gamer, I was smiling ear to ear as well when viewing the trailer. Like you I am very excited for the upcoming release. It's such a wonderful gritty world where it's more gray than black/white. I'd love for them to put together a proper cgi witcher movie. Imagine a 90 minute version of what we just saw? May 19th cannot come soon enough :)
It's really cool that you did the Witcher review. I like your enthusiasm. Thanks for the link to the books - I've already downloaded them. Gonna start reading.
Keep em coming md!!This is by far the best cinematic trailer that i have ever seen for any game,these guys are awesome,i hope someday n a not so far future we get to play games with these graphics,i know one day we will!!
Reacted the same way to that trailer! I just subscribed to you today, you are truly good at what you do and are so unique and different from other reviewers, you are an awesome youtuber and one of my new favorites! Keep it up gamermd83!:)
Judging by your reactions I can tell you're a big fan of the series. I just bought the game because I saw some trailers and decided to see what other people thought of it. Glad to see someone else enjoyed it at least as much as I did :) I'm very much looking forward to the experience and planning on taking my time with this game. I've avoided spoilers as much as I could and read all the books. My body is very much ready and it's very excited!!!
Not an answer I was hoping, but that's good for You. I meant about idea itself, character and his personality. Cause in my opinion author approach was pretty unique to this particular reptile ;)
[book spoiler alert] ShingenNolaan I'm not sure if you get/remember it, but: "It's the most beautiful" It's what Tea and Vea (the Zerrikanian female warriors) use to say about the Golden Dragon.
kefkaFollower Holy crap, that is true. Sorry aout that one earlier, MD ;) I just did not got it in english. In polish it would be an instant hit, cause im from Poland. Sorry once more and thanks for excplanation, kefka. Cheers.
I've already spoiled some of the game for myself; I can't help it! Seriously though, when you're as hyped as I am it's tough not to constantly watch all these streams out there. Funnily enough, even with all I've seen, there's still a massive amount of content that I haven't seen. I've read a few of the older books already, I believe my last one was Time of Contempt. Since it was so long ago, I've been watching your videos as a way to refresh before the game comes out next week, and they really do a great job! Only 4 days now!
I was the same way. The beginning where he had to go after the Princess who was a striga. Man that was another amazing vid. Hooked me ever since. Loved the first game, the second I didn't enjoy as much as the 1st. The third...well that goes into the records as not only a great Witcher game but simply one of the best ever.
It's so cute when you are really excited about a trailer or something similiar, makes me wanna celebrate with you even though I have already seen it xD You know, you remind me a bit of Yennefer with your hair and such o.O And I think it was definitely on purpose that this trailer reminded so many of the trailer/intro for the first one, they want to recreate the feeling of the first game to get us all hooked (and it works!) xD
hey gamermd83 theres 2 more books after baptism of fire it goes the last wish,sword of destiny, blood of elves, the time of contempt, baptism of fire, The Tower of Swallows (which is fan translated) and Lady of the Lake (which is fan translated)
Patrick Roberts question itself tells me u dont know how fighting fire with fire actually works, it's not just a saying, it's actual tactic used in real life, literally. High risk, high efficiency
please finish reading all the books, one book for each day untill 19th May, it really enhanced your experience when you play the game. The Witcher Saga is definitely a masterpiece on itself
Wonderful reaction. For someone to speak of talking too much beforehand, to be left speechless throughout, is a true indication of CD Projekt Red's quality. Loved your authentic and genuine reaction.
There is a polish tv show wedmin aka witcher you can see how geralt grew up and some of the stories including ciri. Its here on youtube with subtitles. And the actor is quiet good even if the production feels low, but for its time is good.
MrFreakierTruth Cause, as you can tell, I rearranged my room temporarily so I'm sitting on the ground and have no other place to put my camera. Eventually, I'll make things more comfortable for myself cause sitting on the ground for a long time aint cool lol
ninjafukwan7 Yeah you right, focusing on 90% of the screen AKA the person who owns the channel, a channel on which said person's videos are all her talking into the camera and the viewer's listening Focusing on that is dumb you smart ninja real smart
The striga trailer still looks awesome to watch today! This one here was fucking amazing. I had to download the OST of "A Night to Remember"... So good!
Love your videos GamerMD!! Really liked the quick overview of the relationships between Geralt, Jennifer and Ciri. Are you going to be streaming witcher 3 on twitch at all?
You've read the books so You might know the name Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy. He was higher vampire and Geralt's friend. Some say she might be something similar.
Just started watching your channel! Just started reading the books , on The Last Wish. You're talented at this, keep it up. Love your enthusiasm and insights. Plus you're cute. Anywaybyee
I suspect that this line about 'world doesn't need a hero, it needs a professional' is a polish in joke, there's an old song that goes 'cause the good lord did all he could already, now it's time to call in a professional'
marmik I'm very confused as I first played witcher 3 then I played witcher 1 and 2 and I was expecting geralt and Ciri to meet in the second game but I dont understand quite when it was that geralt took care of Ciri
ihavenousernamelol2 I would say that is the point of the movie and that it captures the feel of the world of The Witcher. After seeing it you are unable to say with certainty who was really the monster here. The lyrics of the song seem to emphasize that.
Will you be uploading videos to your Random Craziness channel soon? I would love to see a day in the life of gamermd. Haha like you going out for walks or just hanging out. :) thanks for the videos and keep up the great work 👍 much love from Los Angeles!
I know that I'm definitely late for this, but can I ask you where did you find that figure? It's amazing and I can't find it anywhere Besides, one of the most genuine reactions I've ever seen, it truly shows how much you love this world! Great video
This trailer is good in many ways, but the best part is the vampire's song. Her lyrics suggest Geralt is no different from her. The video begins with her singing of humans lying wide-awake at night fearing ghouls, hags, and wraiths. She ends the song singing of 'monsters' lying wide-awake at night, fearing Witchers. She says, "It's all silent for the night...but one soul lies anxious, wide-awake. For the Witcher... paid in coin of gold, he'll chop and slice, he'll cut and dice, he'll eat you up whole, eat you whole." In short, good and evil is relative. This video does not depict an epic fight between good and evil, but instead a fight between two entities simply trying to survive in a world wrought with madness. This is perhaps most evident in their sympathetic talk before the fight. They're not enemies, just casualties of circumstance.
thats a really good analysis
and this vampire is in blood and wine and sings this song and getalt says he will be back for her one day such a good game
logicxhardcorex she even does that pose with her hand like in the trailer as well
Well, great sociological commentary (it really is), until you experience the real encounter of those two in the game which was a prelude to the situation in this trailer; ] Geralt saying "They payed me for you"? Nah, he was very much inclined to visit her without payment
I mean if you listen to the whole song she's singing about witchers the whole time, and the implication of the 'folk have forgotten it' line implies its a human song. Not really surprising considering that Witchers ARE basically just viewed as monsters by common people anyway, they're just monsters who kill other monsters for coin. The song is more or less just conveying that witchers to normal folk are as dangerous as anything else and only cause pain and misery, so you should stay away from them.
A girl who loves The Witcher..... Marry Me
Seriously, she's mimicking my exact reaction to this trailer. I love it lmao
im a gay who loves the witcher. marry me too?

Fuck that

I'm down. I'll get the best ring for ya.

You guys have no idea how awesome it is to see fking entire world talking about Witcher, when I have been basically raised on the world of Witcher :)
Greetings from Poland!
They do justice to old school gamers.
Sektion9 How?
They release the game that isn't shit like most stuff that is released now. The expansions would do as a game itself for some companies.
More than a full game for most companies actually,i would not mind pay full price for each of these amazing expansions if i had to
Realmasterorder forsure one expansion has more content then all of the original Destiny.
ah man, i really wish i could somehow forget games like these and play it like it was the first time, but it was so good i still remember every detail after a year. Man CD project is probably the best game developing studio in the world right now, im really excited what they're gonna do with cyberpunk project.
dont u forget about Blood and Wine dlc! Its coming up today!
Yep, basically another game. Honestly, they could release a "Blood & Wine" type DLC every year and I'd be happy lol.
dandini0698 yeh man i wanna buy the collectors edition my friend had the i completed the storry and then i gave it to them he sold now i wish i would've bought it from him, its one of those games which is just close to your heart witcher 3 and until dawn also for me :)
Blood and Wine was better than the main game!
Not probably. They are the Best. And now Cyberpunk 2077 plus Keanu.
You look legitimately happy. Which makes me happy! :)
After seeing countless number films with reactions I must say this: YOU ARE THE ONLY TRUE FAN OF THIS SERIES AMONG UA-camRS. Respect. All the best for you.

Miguel Garcia I think this wasn't a Bruxa, cause they usually have black hair and don't get burnt by the sun. I think this was an Alp.
BurgundPL Good point I didn't think of that.
Miguel Garcia It can't be a bruxa! A bruxa can stand the light of day well. The creature we saw had its flesh burnt by the sun...but like the djinn in the bottle, it must be called something.
Brian McQuain Alp. Read the comment right under Miguel's first one.
Probably the most beautifull CGI trailer i`ve seen so far....the graphics was amazing! Also, this Geralt is so bookish, bad ass, but still vulnerable
My friend and I stated that same thing. This universe has enough material to make a show. HBO should produce it once GOT is off the air. Everyone and I do mean everyone who watched GOT would watch it. By far the best trailer released this year. Geralt is my hero.

I actually feel the closer comparison of witcher would be lord of the rings or harry potter then GoT.
asdasdasdasd61932 GoT has more depth? Have you read books?
no sadly i haven't im kinda basing it on the nonsense in witcher 3 whereby geralt is pretty much a male fantasy fulfilment
asdasdasdasd61932 Well the women of the world have Shades of Grey why cant men have Geralt. Lighten up or don't. :P
asdasdasdasd61932 surely you're not serious
Congratulations! I have seen hundreds of reactions to this Video and you are the FIRST AND ONLY Person who understood the poisoned blood...
In my opinion, the Saga books are much more important than the short stories themselves, because large parts of them are told from Ciri's perspective, and Ciri is arguably the main character in the story, all events revolve around her.

"I am going to talk during the trailer" proceeds to watch trailer without talking, lol.
I love that you read the books. It made your reaction ten times more enjoyable.
Your facial expressions just earned you a subscriber. 128h played to date, took a break, waited for the big patch and now I'm pumped to go back. Thx.
A girl who not only plays the witcher, but collects merch and reads the books! Now I can die in peace, I've seen it all.
i love that you only react to things you actually love as well, gives you much more insight into the trailer
Holy crap. You react the best I’ve seen and have the most awesome merchandise backdrop. And yet this is from 5 years ago? I can’t wait to binge your reactions starting now!
Every time I get excited about a cinematic. I get so happy and everyone things I'm over exaggerating. I love that you had the same somewhat emotional experience I did. Again keep up the good work on your videos. I'm almost done finishing them :)

The attention to detail in this trailer is amazing, the bright dust from the bomb stays on her body until the end of the trailer.
cant help but smile at your reaction, such sincere enjoyment.
It's really cool that you did the Witcher review. I like your enthusiasm. Thanks for the link to the books - I've already downloaded them. Gonna start reading.
Keep em coming md!!This is by far the best cinematic trailer that i have ever seen for any game,these guys are awesome,i hope someday n a not so far future we get to play games with these graphics,i know one day we will!!
Reacted the same way to that trailer! I just subscribed to you today, you are truly good at what you do and are so unique and different from other reviewers, you are an awesome youtuber and one of my new favorites! Keep it up gamermd83!:)
I am so glad that I was not the only 1 that got hooked on this series because of the cinematic from witcher 1 lol
Judging by your reactions I can tell you're a big fan of the series. I just bought the game because I saw some trailers and decided to see what other people thought of it. Glad to see someone else enjoyed it at least as much as I did :)
I'm very much looking forward to the experience and planning on taking my time with this game. I've avoided spoilers as much as I could and read all the books. My body is very much ready and it's very excited!!!
You're the first person I've seen to connect the potion he took to the vampire getting poisoned. bravo
I share the same jaw-dropped joy-plastered expression for anything Witcher related.
It's 2018 and this is still one of my favorite reactions E-V-E-R!
your love for the witcher universe makes me happy
So nice to see a reaction from someone who knows what they're looking at
Great channel! Thanks for the in depth backstory for those of us who are unfamiliar going into the Witcher 3!
Question, before You'll talk about \Sword of destiny' book - what do you say about the dragon? ^^
It's the most beautiful ;)
Not an answer I was hoping, but that's good for You. I meant about idea itself, character and his personality. Cause in my opinion author approach was pretty unique to this particular reptile ;)
[book spoiler alert]

I'm not sure if you get/remember it, but:
"It's the most beautiful"
It's what Tea and Vea (the Zerrikanian female warriors) use to say about the Golden Dragon.
kefkaFollower Holy crap, that is true. Sorry aout that one earlier, MD ;)
I just did not got it in english. In polish it would be an instant hit, cause im from Poland.
Sorry once more and thanks for excplanation, kefka.
Cheers.

You are welcome.
I read the novels in spanish, so I almost miss the reference too.
I've already spoiled some of the game for myself; I can't help it! Seriously though, when you're as hyped as I am it's tough not to constantly watch all these streams out there. Funnily enough, even with all I've seen, there's still a massive amount of content that I haven't seen.
I've read a few of the older books already, I believe my last one was Time of Contempt. Since it was so long ago, I've been watching your videos as a way to refresh before the game comes out next week, and they really do a great job! Only 4 days now!
just found your videos not too long ago... high five for being awesome :]
I was the same way. The beginning where he had to go after the Princess who was a striga. Man that was another amazing vid. Hooked me ever since. Loved the first game, the second I didn't enjoy as much as the 1st. The third...well that goes into the records as not only a great Witcher game but simply one of the best ever.
It's so cute when you are really excited about a trailer or something similiar, makes me wanna celebrate with you even though I have already seen it xD
You know, you remind me a bit of Yennefer with your hair and such o.O
And I think it was definitely on purpose that this trailer reminded so many of the trailer/intro for the first one, they want to recreate the feeling of the first game to get us all hooked (and it works!) xD
hey gamermd83 theres 2 more books after baptism of fire it goes the last wish,sword of destiny, blood of elves, the time of contempt, baptism of fire, The Tower of Swallows (which is fan translated) and Lady of the Lake (which is fan translated)
I'm loving your Witcher videos, thank you for making them!
It's the great irony of the Witchers, to fight monsters, they essentially become monsters.
fight fire with fire
+Sungjun Yi Would you not fight fire with water?
Patrick Roberts question itself tells me u dont know how fighting fire with fire actually works, it's not just a saying, it's actual tactic used in real life, literally. High risk, high efficiency
Nope.
***** u replying to me?
please finish reading all the books, one book for each day untill 19th May, it really enhanced your experience when you play the game. The Witcher Saga is definitely a masterpiece on itself
This may have just become my favourite game trailer ever, perfectly captures the tone and atmosphere of the books
Wonderful reaction. For someone to speak of talking too much beforehand, to be left speechless throughout, is a true indication of CD Projekt Red's quality. Loved your authentic and genuine reaction.
Just an fyi the official translation of Sword of Destiny does come out Dec of this year, it may be different in the states then in Canada
Man Geralt is really into the whole "cutting off arms" thing.
I had been waiting for you to watch this my day is made
There is a polish tv show wedmin aka witcher you can see how geralt grew up and some of the stories including ciri. Its here on youtube with subtitles. And the actor is quiet good even if the production feels low, but for its time is good.
Your excitement is so infectious!
Lol, you always get excited. I'll probably make a live comm playing the game next week, talking random gibberish, making a fool of myself on UA-cam.
yo why is your face so close to the camera
was it always so close
i'm claustrophobic
MrFreakierTruth Cause, as you can tell, I rearranged my room temporarily so I'm sitting on the ground and have no other place to put my camera. Eventually, I'll make things more comfortable for myself cause sitting on the ground for a long time aint cool lol
***** I think that close up shots like this make some sort of bound between creator and audience, just like in casey neistat vlogs.
MrFreakierTruth PPL focus on the dumbest things sometimes..Jesus !
ninjafukwan7 Yeah you right, focusing on 90% of the screen AKA the person who owns the channel, a channel on which said person's videos are all her talking into the camera and the viewer's listening
Focusing on that is dumb
you smart ninja
real smart
ninjafukwan7 lol you are taking this so serious
The striga trailer still looks awesome to watch today!
This one here was fucking amazing. I had to download the OST of "A Night to Remember"... So good!
Love your videos GamerMD!! Really liked the quick overview of the relationships between Geralt, Jennifer and Ciri. Are you going to be streaming witcher 3 on twitch at all?
You're feeding my hype in await for the game thanks soo much!!! Only 4 days left guys The Witcher Wild Hunt us upon us!!!!
You've read the books so You might know the name Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy. He was higher vampire and Geralt's friend. Some say she might be something similar.
Rafal Glazar To nosferat, jeden z gatunków wampirów wyższych, ale Regis był chyba jeszcze wyższy niż ten z filmiku :)
A witcher doesn't mutate himself. He's mutated by a wizard in childhood.
Song from blood and wine and that was Oriana and he was going to beauclair at the end
You are genuinely adorable.
And, yes, this trailer has gotten me even more excited for The Witcher 3. Only a few hours to go!
A female gamer!! Can we have a date?
i love how you love this game. Just watching your rection made me to play Witcher again... ;)
I love the way You tell about The Witcher. Greetings from Poland! :)
Just started watching your channel! Just started reading the books , on The Last Wish. You're talented at this, keep it up. Love your enthusiasm and insights. Plus you're cute. Anywaybyee
I love that he uses the black blood potion. I really hope that's in the game now, for fighting vampires.
Best reaction ever.. This girl is such a sweet thing, I saw her reaction on 10th anniversary cinematic trailer of The Witcher.. A really true fan.
Your trailer reactions videos always bring a smile to my face. ^u^
Where can I get the Geralt statue like the one you have on the background? It looks so cool!
The statue and the poster behind you .... WOW!!!!!
Where did you get that Geralt holding the Fiends head statue? Its awesome!! I want one!!
I suspect that this line about 'world doesn't need a hero, it needs a professional' is a polish in joke, there's an old song that goes 'cause the good lord did all he could already, now it's time to call in a professional'
What do you think about first met of Geralt and Ciri?
LOVED it! So adorable xD
*****
Me to! :D
marmik I'm very confused as I first played witcher 3 then I played witcher 1 and 2 and I was expecting geralt and Ciri to meet in the second game but I dont understand quite when it was that geralt took care of Ciri
Daniel In the books! The books take place before Witcher 1!
Great vid! Can u tell me where can I get this Withcer's Statue? (right behind you)
How you reacted to this was how my brain felt when I first watched it.
as I see you like Witcher so much and you're a big fan, your reaction is sweet :)
i feel bad for the monster :(
ihavenousernamelol2 me too ...but if geralt hunt her she had to kill too many folks (sorry for my english)
ihavenousernamelol2 same :( It got sad really fast at the end.
ihavenousernamelol2 She's a bruxa. You really shouldn't feel bad for these beasts.
ihavenousernamelol2 I would say that is the point of the movie and that it captures the feel of the world of The Witcher. After seeing it you are unable to say with certainty who was really the monster here. The lyrics of the song seem to emphasize that.
It's a bruxa, not she, it. No different than a drowner or a stryga
Your reaction was exactly the same as mine. At every point. "He looks so cool!" Yup! my thoughts too.
Blood and Wine just over a week away!!!
Will you be uploading videos to your Random Craziness channel soon? I would love to see a day in the life of gamermd. Haha like you going out for walks or just hanging out. :) thanks for the videos and keep up the great work 👍 much love from Los Angeles!
I know that I'm definitely late for this, but can I ask you where did you find that figure? It's amazing and I can't find it anywhere
Besides, one of the most genuine reactions I've ever seen, it truly shows how much you love this world! Great video
Your reactions are AMAZING... my new favorite :D
+Darkmoon ....
DayOneNoob ?
Darkmoon reactions amazing? like cmon man...
not sure what you're talking about
Darkmoon her reactions arent amazing.... this is just a reaction of someone thats hyped about a game ofcourse her reaction is overhyped then
Do you have a reaction video of Sword of Destiny and Killing Monsters?
