      Skellige is about the only land where people generally don't give you shit for being a witcher, and you can actually take the lot of them at face value. They also often show unalloyed gratitude for the favors you do them, and they turn around and pay you back. Hell, during the final battle, the Empire fucked up trying to fight the Wild Hunt, and the Skelligers barged in to finish the job. Their entrance consists of _running over_ some Wild Hunt infantry about to grab Ciri. For that matter, the Skelligers are also the only people who take you seriously when you mention the Wild Hunt. So yeah, it's not hard to see why people like the Skelligers. They're harsh and violent, but you know where you stand with most of 'em and they actually _do_ shit instead of sitting aside like roadkill while you do all of the work.

    What's with all the hjalmar hate? He's a badass, when you ask queen Cerys to help you fight the hunt, she sends her brother. King hjalmar comes alone with no army. In my ending (spoilers) hjalmar continues to battle the redanians because they burn herbalists and non humans and are opressive. Cerys may be more logical and more peaceful, but Hjalmar is a man of action and super loyal to Geralt

      +pearthicorn I do agree. Hjalmar is dumb as a fucking boot, but he is loyal as fuck. Even when he is king, he still finds time to sail to the continent and ride to Kaer Morhen to fight a bunch of skeletal motherfuckers. And he is there fighting at the final battle with the Wild Hunt. He is the man.
      But still, i prefer siding with Cerys for the sake of destroying the original danger to the clan and seeing that bitch Birna tied to a rock and being let sirens eat her.
      If i could make Hjalmar king and still find out who was behind the attacks, that'd be the shit.

If Skellige is to have any future, they need to change, they need someone like Cerys, because Skellige as a nation is very stagnant, they act like primitive savages while the rest of the world is advancing, evolving. As in real life, change is essential, otherwise you are doomed towither and die. Picture this, years in the future, Nilfgaard, the North and South has cannons and guns while Skelligers are running with stick and stones. They would get utterly destroyed and an entire culture would be wiped frome existence. In real life, the Norse/Vikings stopped raiding and became a part of the global society, advancing culturally as much as technologically.
      Secondly - strength is not defined by military might. Genghis Khan had largest military might of it's time...yet crumbled to dust due to a weak, struggling internal workings. Life is a constant state of evolution...that applies to us a s humans as well.

    Making Svanrige king is the far better option of the three if you consider the future of Skellige, since he in the end unites the islands under one absolute rule, instead of fucking democracy like Cerys and Hjalmar rules with. Not saying Cerys and Hjalmar are bad, infact I chose Hjalmar in my first ever playthrough as his character was just more interesting than Cerys, not to mention he has the courage to do whatever it takes to achieve a goal for the greater good, a trait Cerys lacks. And yes Cerys also seems like the best choice too as you get to find out the truth about the whole tragic disaster in Kaer Trolde, but she, like Hjalmar rules the Isles in the old ways of the Skelligers, i.e one King/Queen who makes important decisitions every now and then, but then the Jarls just keep ruling over their own territory as they see fit, usually squabbling with other Jarls to gain more territory, power and influence.
    So yes, Svanrige being king is a bitter sweet result as Birna gets away with her actions, but it ultimately leads to a united Kingdom of The Skellige Isles making them a strong force to be reckoned with that neither the Northern realms nor Nilfgaard would probably have the strength required to make a successful invasion.

    Holgar's guttural scream when the other guy tells him his son is dead is just so heart-wrenchingly painful and realistic. Everybody reacts to grief differently of course, but even though I am not a parent (at least not yet) I would probably scream and cry too if my son/daughter died in front of me. That's got to be one of the most painful things to experience, imo, the loss of a child. The loss of a young child is especially painful, but even the loss of an adult son or daughter is probably excruciating. To quote Hawke's mother from Dragon Age 2, "18 years of loving and feeding and raising and... that was it." I know everybody thinks Leandra was a horrible mother and maybe she kinda is, but that line hit me hard the first time I heard it and it still sticks with me. It's so true. Like I said, I'm not a parent and I certainly don't know what it's really like to lose a child but I had a classmate that died in a traffic accident after we both graduated and to this day I cannot imagine the pain his parents must have suffered and likely still suffer. I just pray that it somehow eases.

I guess a shorter cut kinda suits the Feline motif of speed and being light on your feet. I might try it. To be honest, It's actually one of the better hair styles for Geralt in this game, the other 2 being shaved sides with ponytail, and the default one. The others are just....meh. Wish we got more styles to choose, maybe shorter haircuts and maybe a buzz cut? I personally would have liked something similar to Olgierd's hair cut. Shaved sides like the ponytail one except short on top and slicked back.

    This honestly feels like a joke ending, put in by developers just to have another choice. It's very uncharacteristic of Witcher 3 Geralt to help Hjalmar, for even though he's honourbound, he's intelligent, observant and calculating as well. For such a Geralt, helping Cerys is the only obvious choice, for both she and Hjalmar ultimately want revenge, yet when he seeks to spill blood with reckless abandon, his sister aims at the heart of the conspiracy - the true villains and traitors.
    And even if you play a less honourable Geralt, he'd rather not get involved than help, too. No matter who you play as, no Geralt would help Hjalmar.

    Wait, so the blokes get killed by the bears, they posses the bears and transform into human again?

      J0K3R-GaM35 No the people eating the Mushrooms were the 3 weak ones and the bears were the 3 strong ones. Remember they said it? "We take them in groups of 6 but pick 3"

      +Sir JmZ But the guys who appears after are the same ones that gets eaten by the bears, and you clearly see bears instead of Beserkers that looks slighty different. There actually three out of six, but the bodies of the others who died were scattered inside the village

      I assumed it was that the bears more or less inherited the persons appearance, which is much scarier in that the bears are becoming you not the other way around

    Hjalmar is so annoyingly impulsive. My first playthrough i chose his sister, im on my second and im trying to try out different outcomes but theres no way id choose this path.

    DANG, unsettling thought. Grasses Trial looks painful.

    I guess I'm in the minority, but I have a hard time not choosing Hjalmar as king, as I want Nillfgaard to be defeated more than almost anything, and as Hjalmar is the one who takes the fight to them I find it hard to resist bringing them directly into the war.

    • @kirani111

      Late to the party but I think you forgot how after Cerys becomes queen, Hjalmar keeps taking longships out to war against Nilfgaard and always loses 💀 or how he got nearly his entire squad killed on the way to the Giant. My guy is a total bro but dumb as rocks, neither king nor general material.

    In all my playthroughs I've always chosen Cerys as it does seem to the sensible option, however this time I chose Hjalmar just to change it up. To be fair to Hjalmar, he wasn't wrong in his suspicions, going after the vildkaarls, as they were in on the conspiracy. He just went about it the wrong way. Should have dug deeper into it but he was mostly focused on getting his family's name cleared.

    Here's a pop question, if Hjalmar become the king could Ceris help later in Kaer Morhen fight to defend against wild hunt?
    I finished this game about 8 or 9 times maybe and never choose Hjalmar as king tho...

      Wisnu Zainesta nope Cerys doesn’t go regardless of who rules in skellige while hjalmar will go with you regardless. That’s the reason I love hjalmar and what I hold against Cerys

    • @DevilHunter1994
      @DevilHunter1994 4 роки тому +1

      @@allyfazio9684 Cerys is right though. The queen leaving Skellige when it's in the middle of a civil war is just a bad idea. Hjalmar coming himself shows how loyal he is, but it also kinda proves that he's really not fit to be King in my mind. He's not a leader. He's a warrior.
