In this Witcher 3 Lore Video, Drew takes you through the secrets surrounding Gaunter O'Dimm the enigmatic antagonist of the Hearts of Stone DLC.
Released on the 19th of May, 2015, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an open world, third-person perspective videogame in which players control Geralt of Rivia. The game is based on The Witcher series of fantasy novels written by Polish Author, Andrzej Sapkowski. The main story follows Geralt searching for his missing adopted daughter, named Ciri. She is fleeing from an otherworldly force who are determined to find her and use her powers for themselves. During the game, players will interact with a variety of fleshed out characters, using a variety of tactics to complete side quests, developing their skills as they acquire more experience points. The gear Geralt uses can also be changed by players purchasing new items and using in-game materials to forge from scratch. The main plot has multiple endings, all of which are determined by the player's choices at various points throughout the videogame. The Witcher 3 is available on Xbox One, Playstation 4, and Microsoft Windows.

Geralt has the power of auto-save and chekpoints, Gaunter'o'Dimm doesn't stand a chance
That is...until O’Dimm corrupts your saves.
...and walkthrough tutorial.
Undertale
He knows it because his Real name is SANS
@@RoegadynEnjoyer that is creepy
Gaunter O' Dimm- what is your wish Geralt?
Geralt- a round of Gwent
Gaunter O' Dimm-*nods head*
The weirdest thing is if i ever did meet odim i would just ask him to play a game of chess no strings just play. Kinda makes you wonder if you win against him simply for the fun of rhe game hed grant a wish without the negative
Zero Omega2100 then he would place you to Harry potters chess and make you to be on a figure,later one of them will kill you :)but in this case I think best solution is to climb on a kings back,cause he cannot be attacked
This would've been so awesome. He should use unique cards that noone else has. So at least once in the game other than at the start you actually have a challenge in Gwent.
Geralt: "Let's lay them down.."
Yeah that would be a very bad idea lol 😂
When satan goes to sleep he looks under his bed for Gaunter O’ Dimm.
Thanks! The best joke here, it make my day!
He IS the satan, wait..
Stolen
He is “satan” and he’s the mirror because satan is within all of us
He is the version of shaytan also in our islamic culture
I like that when he talks about Geralt not wanting to know his true nature, his gaze drifts to us, the player. As if warning us that not even we want to know what he is
In some heretical forms of Christianity the God of the realm you and I live in is sadistic and evil.
@@JohnSmith-mc2zz
The demiurge or Yaldabaoth. It’s from Gnosticism and a lot of gnostics believed that the demiurge and the devil are the same entity.
Ah oui :o
If you aren't set in your ways, it is actually the most steadfast there is
@@JohnSmith-mc2zzThe Abrahamic religions are funny like that because they used to be pagan religions, or they started off as pagan religions. Eventually however they stopped being pagan because they stopped worshipping earthly things and started to worship a singular deity instead of a pantheon of deities.
So yea, in very old scriptures the Judeo Christian god sounds and acts more like a pagan god instead of a benevolent creator.
This guy makes the crones and the wild hunt look like a fluffy Easter bunny's
So fluffy.
Anything makes the hunt look fluffy, deatlaff could butcher them in seconds, gaunter could vaporise them in under a second, Eredin has no scary or frightening part he is Just your average King who rules frozen demons
@@jakubs6991 well frozen hounds and wraiths, only real question is how did the beasts become that way and were they from the world of the elves??
Nevertheless, Eredin was just the one ancient elf 'above the rest' so to speak. Only for him to come crashing down when messing with Geralt after pursuing Ciri
I think he seems somewhat similar to the Crones. More powerful, but similar. Ancient, and bargains wishes with their own evil twist, and with... unconventional payments.
M 626 nice catch!
This is the first villain in while that I've genuinely been intimidated by
Able to control time like that... essentially anyone he wants he could just kill whenever. Whatever it is, it's as powerful as the many gods of many fairy-tales, if not more so.
Yeah me too
The worst part is that he doesn’t lie
Strange Man from red dead redemption too
Guilherme Oliveira They’re actually quite similar now that I think of it.
Thanos: i'm the most terrifying villain of all time
Gaunter O'Dimm: Hold my spoon
@Pato Donald allright
Most terrifying villain of all time is Judge Holden
@@geraltofrivia-thewhitewolf2693 spawn: ah that guy,he's head is in my chains
@@jacobking4504 He never sleeps. He says that he will never die. He dances in light and in shadow and he is a great favorite. He never sleeps, the judge. He is dancing, dancing. He says that he will never die.
@@specialknees6798 Yessss. That last chapter was haunting. The Judge is one of my favourite literary characters (though there is a historical possibility he was real!) of all time. Blood Meridian is an incredible book.
As a Georgian, hearing "shen ggonia momerie, ara, tsdebi" was jawdroppingly shocking, an absolutely epic character!
haha I can Imagine your surprise.
What does it mean?
@@eyad6132 It means “you think you beaten me, no, you are mistaken.”
@@eyad6132 it means 'watermelon juice is better than orange'
@@eyad6132
it means pineapple belongs on pizza and death to those who disagree
Arguably the most fascinating character, huh?
Clearly someone has never heard of Roach.
Only the most broken ass dumbass piece of shite horse in the game
Genuinely that Blood and Wine quest made me look at the entire Witcher Universe differently
@@fyurex8969 hes a dick but a constant companion throughout the game. An annoying helpful AI shit.
@@gtrrohit5078 couldn't have said it better myself
Lets not forget that he either has the same time and space powers as Ciri or the portal powers of Yen. How else is he always there when you whistle. Leave him in Velen, Fast travel to Toussaint, Whistle and BAM! There's Roach.
I think you missed a part of Gaunters personality:
if you don't interfere with him at the end and let him take the soul of Olgierd he lets you make a wish as reward and although geralts wording is poor in every possible answer, he doesn't betray you and instead tries to transform your wish into something useful for you. This shows that he is truely grateful for that you helped him.
For example 1 possible wish you can make geralt says: "I dont want to have hunger ever again". This could easily be granted by just killing geralt, instead Gaunter gives him an infinite food supply.
At the same time this can also just be put down to endong a story arc and game design. If the wish had a second meaning or curse, i think everyone would want more of gaunter o'dimm. By not having that they wrap the plotline.
Who knows I didn't take anything from him because I thought the items would be amazing at first and then over time the truth of them would surface like endless vodka making me dependent or fast as the wind being literal so I'd be slower in still weather
That’s only because Gaunter feels he’ll need Geralt’s services in the future. Gaunter always has an ulterior motive.
@@ashwinarun9817 I like that reason. Shame no more witcher is being released according to CD PROJEKT RED
I mean they pretty much said they are focusing mainly on a two franchise strategy the witcher series being one of the two so in fact I think it is very likely we WILL see more witcher games in the future.
Also, in the professor's Journal we learn that Odimm was able to plague his dreams every night for the rest of his life stuck in the circle. First it was just nightmares, then eventually the professor began dreaming that he had a daughter and in his dreams every night he watched her grow up, and then one day she died in his dreams and he had to deal with the real grief from it. This perfectly sums up how Odimm plays with his victims and turns all of their Joys into ashes. And just think, he did this to the man in retaliation to even being researched
Gaunter is quite evil and we were shown he can just decide to kill someone and do so even just for a petty reason, however it's much more likely that Gaunter offered him a challenge in exchange for a wish and the professor lost.
O'Dimm claims he never lies or cheats, though. And he kept his word with his Geralt deal. It might be that O'Dimm also mirrors the personalities he makes deals with - whoever has deception in his heart will be deceived back... Geralt as the (mostly) honest hero got mostly treated honestly.
Wait, if he's the man of mirrors. Maybe he's just a reflection of the person asking for the wish.
I'm sure anyone would see him as evil if they were looking at a reflection of their deepest desires.
@@TheSucidalpanda ooooohhhhhhh
The witcher 3 is by far my favorite game, I'm not sure it could be outdone. It has such a charm to it.
Lotus only thing that could beat it is the Witcher 4
well I mean...
CYBERPUNK 2077 ANYBODY?
@@BananaDope Cyberpunk is completely different. Different Era,Completely based on Tech,No Magic or monsters, etc.
So can't compare that to the witcher cause they both have different plots. Maybe cyberpunk can be the best from the games in its category.
@@ironside7527 I mean if we compare how fun the game was and the experience you had while playing it
@@BananaDope Yeah i can agree to that. Let's see what cyberpunk brings in november.
Gaunter: I can control time and is super powerful. My riddles can never be solved.
Me: I can pause the game and have the powers of the internet.
I didn't need the internet, I decided defeated him by having faith in whatever God's name is. I almost lost by having few second before time's up 😂
Gaunter: My only WEAKNESS! INTERNET!
Gaunter vs Google
The ultimate battle of the gods
I figured out the riddle with like 3/4 of the time left and I just ran around looking for a mirror until I almost ran out of time
Of course by power of youtube i can see you thru
Cautious! you studied too much about master mirror, and there will be consequences
😉
You will go blind
They’ll be cursed to forever tell stories to us, unable to rest, unable to die, until the last bit of lore has been explained
Yikes
He will go blind
I remember feeling genuinely uneasy when we came across the Blind man O'dimm had cursed to stay inside the pentagram. That scene just confirmed that we were messing with something so far beyond any other monster we had faced before. So powerful that Geralt couldn't have any hope of defeating him in a straight up fight
Same. Gave me shivers once i finally figured out what was going on with the blind dude. Simply dying and dropping like a sack of potatoes upon stepping outside the circle would have been far more comforting because it implies O'dimm is just a powerful monster with magical abilities. The idea that causality is being bent to the will of O'dimm evidenced by how the blind man actually dies is chilling in an existential sense. Fate being the one permanent and unyielding constant in a universe that cannot even stop manipulation of time and space by something beyond is only the smallest of comforts
Pfff you got the confirmation by then? From the very beginning i felt that he was way too dangerous. No offense but i don't know how you get to that point without already thinking that O'dim is very bad news.
I think the Skellige Djinn is probably close to his power level, we just never see its true power
The fact that you run into him at the start of the game and the game refrains from showing you important or powerful he is is probably one of my favorite moments in gaming
In a way it kind of does show you, though just not that he's important for the main story till the heart of stone story. He knows who you're asking for, that she went to the Imperial camp on business, and foreshadows that you WILL see him again later. But also in such a way as if by magic, that Geralt and we ourselves, never think twice about it
@@mackenzieokelley6454 yeah you're kinda like "how does that guy know this?? " But you're so new to the game at that point u don't have much to go on to question it
Just finished Hearts Of Stone last night.
9/10
Only issue was that the freakin frog was harder to kill than the final boss of the main game.
(I find that a bit funny though)
Cause o dimm can't die.he never wanted geralt to die he gave him fair chance. he says in devil language he will come back
Imagine me...used a sword I was not leveled for and was forced to literally punch and grenade a frog for at least an hour straight...I was almost in tears when i could use my silver sword again.
Really? I think the Caretaker was much harder to kill
I found that bitch ghost harder than anything I fought in the whole game she was very fucking fast with restoring her health...
@@talalkh5397 u have to hit the picture on be wall before she can restore her health from them
Mirror of Gaunter O'Dimm.
Mirror of G.O.D.
The Devil.
Oh my fucking god
MinscS2 oh that’s makes sense
MinscS2 yeah, I just beat this recently. He gave me Satan vibes when I kept meeting with him.
@@shandonransom7110 Satan vibes? Sammael was once a one of archangels ... GODS most best warriors ... he just didnt like when GOD started like humans more then angels so ho rebelled ... that lead to his fall, he wasn't just blindly following orders ... and that is what he did to humans too ... as a snake he gave Eve an apple ... and people gained free will ... not blindly listening to orders, GOD didnt like that but he decided to play this game, from that time all sinners go to hell (not listening orders) to Satans realm, those who blindly follows go to heaven ...
If you don't already know this I just wanted to let you know Gaunter O' Dimm is based on Stephen King's character Walter O' Dimm(one name of many names, he is known for constantly changing his name and face)
He is a dark wizard that is aware of his existence as a character in a book, he can freely travel between dimensions, like say into the video game series The Witcher.
He is one of the main antagonists in King's magnum opus 'The Dark Tower' and the main antagonist in his books 'The Stand' and 'Eyes of the Dragon'.
He is my favorite villain ever and when I saw him in The Witcher I lost my shit.
He also aspired to be a God and control everything so it makes perfect sense that he would change his name to Gaunter O' Dimm, initials G.O.D.
Gaunter O Dimm is one of the few villains in gaming history who truly terrified me
just below dahaka
@@pranomadityagogoi8046 No. Don't even mention that thing please. 😂
TBH when I ran into the Groundskeeper I thought i was playing Resident Evil or something haha
Then you face undead olgierd and it becomes silent hill
Screw that fight! He scared the absolute hell outta me since I wasn’t looking towards him, so all I saw was a giant shadow who nearly one shorted me
mann that shit was terrifying.
Yeah that dlc was bloody hectic. Absolutely mentally drained me. Absolute masterpiece from cd red. Love o dimm! My favourite character in the game. Brilliantly written with subtle brilliant hints about him all over the place his back ground and all this study and speculation. Incredible
It...i..it was the 'Caretaker'...not 'Groundskeeper'...
I am from Georgia and when I first heard Gaunter O'Dimm speaking in Georgian I was amazed and kinda happy
Must be nice lol
can imagine. The moment when a woman in Wolfenstein II: TNC spoke in Finnish was kinda weird but funny at the same time also her name was in Finnish :Dd was just a very random moment
You’re from Georgia? You know DC Youngfly?
@@solitary2 bruh
You’ll have to either forgive me for this or condemn me for life, initially I thought Gaunter was speaking in a satanic language at that moment😂
The fact that Gaunter doesn't offer a *super* gwent card is disappointing imo.
Gaunted O’Dimm
Ability: Instantly take all opponent cards permanently, including cards in opponent deck not in play.
And the card that is based on him is pretty useless
Gaunter o dimm
Ability: Opponent wins all rounds but loses the game
@@kekero540 Task failed successfully.
@@JonnyOgg
Yeah, he should've been more like the Kambi card in the Skellige deck..
Seemingly of no face value, when first played..but packed with a very powerful emerging counter, when it would usually be destroyed or removed..
And then also create a unique havoc, in a way similar to weather effects, but of a more unique nature on your cards..or perhaps, like the vetentrillenmirth or pirate scorch cards, he turns the bonus cost of a card of your choice in their deck against them..
Like a spy card, but deducting their points as a minus to the enemy, and a bonus to you!
As well as keeping all his shadow muster minions too!
That would be one seriously worthy card!
When nearing the end of the quest regarding Iris Von Everec, the dog will answer the riddle for you. He will say something along the lines of "when dealing with the man of glass, look for glass that can't be broken"
he already said it in the video
my god... Is that dog the only other one who bested O'Dimm..??
@@freakyfox5229 fuck 😳
@@freakyfox5229 no, the other man who bested o'dimm is stated to be a regular man and the dog says multiple times that he's a demon
I think that the dog and the cat know how to beat him because they know that o' dimm is some kind of demon like them
@@santiagoqueijeiro389 you might be right 😅
Imagine coming across a misterious merchant of mirrors and spoons in cyberpunk :D
Mr. Blue Eyes is close.
The best antagonist in modern video games. Without him the Hearts of stone dlc wouldn't be the same thing. Even Blood and wine which is the best dlc in the current generation didn't have such a powerful and mysterious villain with an unique individuality and feel to it.
Blood and wine isn’t abour villains, but about moral decisions. שחר יצחק
Zakaria It is kind of meant to have a tragic finale
Hearth if stone is all about story
I preferred Hearts of Stone, but Blood & Wine was very good as well.
DauntingKitty to me heart of stone was the writers wanting to show just how good they were and that a game driven by story is still amazing while blood and wine showed off how beautiful the world was and gave us everything we would expect but bigger and better perfect way to end the game imo
Favorite character in Witcher 3
favorite character period
Camelworks Damn. I see how it is.
Hearts Of Stone is probably the most impactful story I've ever seen in gaming history. Even alot of movies can't touch it. Olgierd, his wife and everything surrounding was an EXTREMELY powerful story. I just felt bad for him. It's a story about a man that just wanted to be something more than just a regular man/A NOBODY. Because so many of us live and die without even a blip of the radar. Olgierd Von Everec's biggest crime was simply, ambition. His ambition consumed him that's what made him Gaunters juiciest prey.
This is /x/ tier nonsense the whole way through. Sorry man, but it's like your whole view on these things is drawn straight from Supernatural.
And if you're curious what I mean, it was:
-bringing up crossroads lore
-forgetting Revelations proves that Satan can use naturalistic forces
-The story about the notches on the dial isn't just stopping time, it's reversing it
-Thinking that spiritual forces are pro-materialism in the example of the inverse pentagram
-Not knowing that the reverse pentagram is just neo-wiccan 70's nonsense. They actually included a fifth element "spirit", but apparently didn't know the spirits reside in both the elemental realms of air and fire(as per Platonics and it's period, so for instance in the Bible the evil prince of the air in Ephesians is of the air, God is of fire in the OT and in the NT is said to baptize with fire).
You should read “Between worlds” found in hearts of stone. You find the book while doing the “Scenes from a marriage” quest and it’s in the same room where Olgeird studied “Visitants” (other world beings). It differentiates Djins (d’ao) from what Gaunter O’Dimm really is.
And what he really is?
Lucas Ciminelli You should find the book I talked about. Finding the book does tell you what Gaunter O’Dimm is.
Kuoic Erego is he a genie?
Lucas Ciminelli witcher.fandom.com/wiki/Between_Worlds
I believe so, considering that Olgierd made 3 “requests” to O’Dimm which can also be interpreted as wishes. Genies are also the most powerful ‘KNOWN’ outer beings so It’s only the most logical guess. It’s says there are genie elements who have complete mastery over one specific element like fire, earth, etc. But remembering how O’Dimm made a storm so Geralt could escape off the Ofieri boat, able to bestow Olgierd immortality and the fact he can manipulate TIME is way different from the others elemental genies. Those other genies escape to their own dimension when they complete 3 wishes, O’Dimm collects souls. I have some guess why but at the end of the day, I don’t think anyone would be able to fight him like how yen and geralt fought that one djin in the ‘last wish’. Gaunter O’Dimm is so powerful he’s bored, so his entertainment is playing humans as toys.
Another theory is that he is the actual god of the witcher universe because of his habilities like stoping time and travel throug universes, and the G O D (Gaunter O Dimm) but i don’t know. Maybe it would be always a mistery for us. It could be a djinn, a genie or god. That is what make the witcher so incredible
I thought hed be surprised someone actually outsmarted him. Been around for thousands of years and only 2 people have won?
Youd think hed have some respect, i thought he was clapping like “well done” because he was surprised. But nah he just gets butthurt like some common peasant lmao.
Because he's so powerful, I'm pretty sure he's extremely prideful and vain, getting annoyed that he doesn't always win.
I was surprised that no one had tried a water reflection before. But no one knew as much about him either.
he is no cheat ... he stated that clearly ... he think he is much better then humans, smarter and everything he just decided to play a fair game with them ... he is really enjoying somebody outsmarted him but then again his pride kicks in when he says at leaving : You think you won? No you are wrong. I will be back.
@gabe itches 8
Honestly i always felt you won because he allowed you to. Giving you a challenge which is in your ability to solve. He wanted you to win. Thts why he says: "you think youve won? You are wrong ill be back" he wasnt being vanefull, he was being honest
O'Dimm doesn't hide his nature, everything is out in the open. You just have to see it.
He's master mirror, he is what you are. The riddle at the end wasn't a riddle, it was an introduction.
O'Dimm is only as evil as the people he deals with (that guy with the wooden spoon in his eye must have done something wrong). But to a bunch of peasant welcome enjoying a nice chat during a wedding. He's just a pleasant guest sharing gingerbread recepies.
If you look at his dealings with Gerlalt, he doesn't do anything to Geralt that Geralts hasn't done to others.
I'm am so happy to see that there's a rational person here. It seems almost everyone thinks he's the devil. Olgeird and the spotted wight weren't good people before O'Dimm showed up in their lives. It seems to me that O'Dimm kind of hoped that Olgeird would "come to his senses" during their interactions together but, of course, that didn't happen. He chose his fiance over his own brother, he was practicing black magic, etc. I'm not a Christian but I have read the bible and it is pretty apparent that God punishes people, especially in the Old Testament, for doing these "wrong deeds". I'm not sure why these people think he's the devil because he "punished" bad people. The Christian God has done the same thing.
Valerie Montanez Pretty darn obvious that Gaunter O'Dimm is supposed to be God. And according to the old traditions God definetly can be a monster.
@@rutger5000 You are damned right about that. It seems to be a popular belief among a lot of the Christians I've encountered that God can't/won't do those kinds of things even though the Old Testament lists a lot of things to the contrary.
Valerie Montanez Well among people that care about religion, christians are the worst at having read the bible.
Valerie Montanez hè is not God, the Initials G.O.D. Hè uses is a way of sarcasticly mockering God. Hè is evil incarnated hè is not a good being, sure u could laugh talk have a fun time with him, but hè can also mess up ur live really bad in sucha State to make u deal in return. Hè is not the devil himself, the closest resembles hè has is memphistopheles from faust legends and hè was a Very powerfull being working for satan
Gaunter O'Dimm is one of the only antagonists in all of fiction that straight up terrifies me. I love how they don't reveal his true nature because it makes him all the more sinister. If they ever make a 4th game, I would love to see him return.
I dont blame you he could probibly kill anything and if that not bad enough it known that ciri traveled to our world and brought the black death to the world of the aen sheid you k ow the catriona so by that logic our world is one of the worlds of in the relm of space time travel anf its known gaunter o dim can travel between worlds so let just hope that he never comes here
ur in luck bro. they announced plans for witcher 4 today.
@@mohammedzahir5223 I’m so stoked. I love the books and the games. Hope Gaunter makes some sort of appearance. Such a great character whose phenomenally voice acted.
@@Domination1799 I hope so too, however this is a new saga so im gonna guess this might be between another witcher and odimm.
Disagree, never want to see him again. This was enough and was perfect.
When you go professor Shakeslock's house, after he breaks his neck leaving the pentagram circle if you extinguish the candles around the pentagram you will actually hear the sound of the magic that powered its protection actually leaving...thought that was a cool little detail
Heart of Stone is by far my favorite storyline in the W3, it is a real masterpiece of storytelling and gameplay.
unfortunately it was quite small expansion :(
@@pawelmoskwa6842 Quality over quantity my man
@@pawelmoskwa6842compared to most other dlcs the witcher 3 dlcs are another level. The story of hearts of stone is 10 hours long which is the length of other full on games. I’d say it’s plenty of content for a dlc. Other dlcs are 3-4 extra hours at most, while the witcher gives us at least 30-50 more hours of content if you combine hearts of stone and blood and wine.
Not really, Gaunter is great and the wedding is great but the whole emo redhead boy story was pretty bullshit. His character is shit. He deserves everything coming for him. He has caused so much suffering and even to this day. He's a common criminal. Gaunter was right taking his soul.
@@CaptainPupuGood thing there's an ending that caters directly to your opinion then...
imagine if Gaunter O'Dimm makes an appearance in cyber punk 2077 and all the other games of CD projekt Red as an Easter egg/ unexplained anomaly.....ciri is already pretty much confirmed as an npc occurrence in 2077 i would love gaunter to make an appearance
Death by Username yea like patches from demons souls
i thought of that before too and is almost possible...he is not omnipresent (neither omniscient) so he cannot exist at 2 places at once but he can exist in 2 places one after another.... fucking imagine
1. hitman -7 - good morning agent 47 your target is bla bla bla but the client's name is unknown and he goes by the alias of master of mirrors .
2. assassin's creed 9 - there is some interference in the animus...a virus patch code named G O'DIRM or some shit
the possibilities could be endless.....he would legit become a horror story we might read to our kids 10 years from now so that they would get scared to talk to strangers.
omniscient doesn't mean to exist everywhere and nowhere, you're confusing omniscient and omnipresent, omniscient means to know everything
my bad...leme correct it
why would it be a disaster to have him as an easter egg ? i not only beg to differ but will go as far as to say your statement is completely / utterly wrong . it would be an amazing easter egg .
he does not have to impact the story in any way whatsoever.....did you know that conan o' brien was an easter egg in witcher 3 blood and wine expansion ? did he effect the story in any way ? no it was an amazing easter egg which referenced to conan's comment on excessive shagging while playing witcher 3.
Actually in Georgian he said :
"You think you defeated me? No, you're wrong"
@Joseph Waters You think CDPR is ever going to bring him back?
@Joseph Waters Not anymore! CDPR just renewed their Witcher license, and are starting on a new Witcher game project!
@@travisadams6279 what? can you inform me about it?
@@asteral8641 They are no longer on bad terms with the writer of the Witcher books. And have a new deal. CDPR said all they will be doing in the near future besides Cyber Punk is the Witcher.
O dimm just bluffing didn't return after all
I believe that “cat”, “dog” and the “caretaker” came from the same realm as gunther o dimm
I don't think Gaunter is from any specific realm. The Cat and Dog are very obscure and we don't know their age, all we know is that they aren't human spirits. The caretaker has no connection to anyone from the DLC, other than being hired by Olgierd. We don't know if he's a human(oid), a magic anomaly, a demon, a monster? Geralt uses a silver sword, implying he is a monster of some sort. But we don't know his age. Gaunter is atleast a few millenia old, since the professor cited him from texts thousands of years old. He is probably a Devil~ of some sort, thought we don't know his true nature.
@@imaguyandabeautifulbutterfly I like to think he's a version of the god Loki who travels throughout various realms causing trouble and collecting souls and trophies for fun. I doubt CDPR will ever really tell us what he is the same way Rockstar will never tell us who the mysterious man is that pops up in RDR1 and RDR2.
@@Karlach_ Cool theory but Gaunters nature doesn't fit Loki very well AFAIK, he's less mischievous and troublesome and more so pure evil. They're both manipulative, but that is to be expected from a being so old and... the God of mischief. I do agree that CDPR is certain to never tell us what exactly Gaunter is, and I honestly like it that way. Headcannon id much more fun. But I wouldn't complain if in a spin off they gave some random explanation for people to lean on, like "he's a demon from another realm"
Even that is probably too much but you get my point, hopefully ...
@@imaguyandabeautifulbutterfly Ah sorry man but that's a common misconception. I know Norse mythology very well having studied it in college for a few years.
Trust me, Loki may be called the 'God of Mischief' but 80% of the things he does is pure fucking evil. Like when he murdered Baldur or kidnapped Idun for example.
@@Karlach_ oh shit mb
The story of Olgierd and O'Dimm is actually based on Polish folklore Pan Twardowski, very interesting by the way, I loved it as a kid :)

I now no longer have nightmares of Eredin or Vampires hiding under my bed. I only have nightmares of Gaunter O'Dimm................
I love how you bring the atmosphere of the games to these videos of yours thru your excellent way of representing and editing. Ive missed alot of interesting things and little big details in the games, and these videos of yours truly fills in the gaps. Thank you and keep up the good work
I did not notice Gunter in disguise throughout the game and forgot he was the first character I talked to in White Orchard. This game is a masterpiece I must admit.
Eredin: I am the destroyer of kingdoms conquerer of worlds... I am the king of the wild hunt!
Gaunter: oooooh, that’s adorable.

"You confuse the sky with the stars reflected at night on the surface of the pond." It's a quote from one of Witcher books.
Halt Hammerzeit ~Vilgefortz the maniac
Oh I love that quote!!!! Completely forgot about it....
Thats a weird translation
@@c.o7993 how should it be translated?
Mixing symbols between earth and sky is a classic trickster game.
As hermes thrice born says, as above, so below.
Hermes is the greek edition of the egyptian God, Thoth. The symbol on the floor of the temple of lilvani is Thoth's sigil. (Thoth is a moon God, as well as a God of language and wisdom.)
Gaunter O dimm gets his name from leeland gaunt and walter o dim from steven king's extended universe.
Both these characters were based off HP lovecraft's outer God nyarlathotep.
Nyarlathotep is a pharoah esque god who built the pyramids. He is also a nocturnal trickster entity.
Nyarlathotep was based on a nightmare Lovecraft had of an evil nikola tesla.
So basically, gaunter o dimm is based on nikola tesla ;)
I really loved this expansions attention to detail and the hints they give you along the way. The "Glass that does not break" line made me think for awhile. I didn't get it until I was leaving the oxenfurt university and I saw the reflection on the water. What a perfect experience, almost like a story came alive to me in real life just then.
I find that the Witcher 3 sometimes makes it hard to find the "right" path, for example I let the plague spirit go by accident. In the blood and wine expansion it's also very easy to get a bad ending if you don't do every little extra thing.
Awesome video, and I think the philosophy you explore into the nature of Gaunter is very intriguing. It certainly makes more sense to me nowadays than earlier times in my life. Thanks for making this!
I didn’t know that towards the end of the quest Gaunter spoke actual languages. And when you mentioned that one of them was creole it registered with me. There’s an entity known as Papa Legba in Haitian folklore who grants wishes to humans and and forms pacts and contracts. He also happens to speak all human languages, primarily creole. Interesting connection don’t you think?
I think they did this to show that even in the witcher universe. The mirror of GOD. Gaunter Odimm. The devil. Is known across many cultures, just as he knows many cultures because at his core, hes linked to it all.
Antillian and Haitian Creole are different- but mutually intelligible. You can say that the Voodoo Boys haven't made an otherworldly allegiance...
... But you'd be a fool to wager on it.
every time he dissapears, someone actualy says: What the devil XD
Gaunter still makes me shiver XD best villian ever.
He's a djinn, neither god or devil but something in between.
Neonai 1984 but he denies being a djinn or demon.
Hasn't Geralt met a few djinns himself? I think I remember encountering one in a quest in the game itself. While I guess not all djinns are the same, Gaunter O'Dimm gives off an extremely different atmosphere compared to what I know.
Technically I guess unless a djinn or demon is unable to lie, him saying he isn't one doesn't quite matter. Though I guess in the game we don't quite see him telling outright lies? Just omissions of truths and wordplays.
He's not just a demon, he's the Devil himself. It becomes pretty clear when Geralt visits the old man in Oxenfurt in the last main quest. He makes pacts in exchange of human souls.
Kevin Verzee same here gaunter o dimm impressed me very much
I just finished HoS and came on here to learn more about this dude. An exceptional video, my thanks.
When o'dimm froze time at the bar and killed that guy with the spoon, it was probably the most afraid I've ever been while playing a video game, the pure atmosphere and eeriness in the station put me so far on edge and the song sent actual shivers down my spine, overall hearts of stone was probably the most immersive and enjoyable parts of the witcher which is already my favorite game by far and it is definitely the better of the 2 dlcs just the narrative alone is so much better than the blood and wine dlc even if it has more real content, the absolute mystery of o'dimm is just so enticing
Did anyone caught the same detail as i did? Ok you know when you meet the professor on his pentacle, when he says that as long as the candles are lit he'll be protected. Well, when he kills himself (and right before leaving the crumbling place) if you take the time to take out all of the candles, there will be a very loud demonic growl at the last candle. Jesus fucking Christ i slept with the lights on this night.
Yeah I think O'Dimm had summoned and bound a demon to possess the house as he had done with the cat and dog at the von Everec mansion. Blowing out the candles releases or banishes it or something, idk
There's also a book in that room called "Between worlds" that describes genies. If you find and read it, it sounds a little like gaunter. Genies are completely different in the Witcher universe, they're dark and evil. But gaunter might a lot more powerful than ya average genie.

This guy, Gaunter is my FAVOURITE villain in any videogame. EVER.
IraqI GaMer he's not a villain imo. He just wants his part of the deal. Have you ever felt bad when you fake-throw a ball when playing with your dog? Probably not. Have you ever felt bad for a fly or a mosquito? No, right?
Well, it's the same for Gaunter. He just plays with the lesser humans
i agree with the analogy of us humans being equal to insects for gaunter but hey....gaunter takes pleasure in indulging with the humans....we humans couldn't care less for them.....
gaunter plays with the essence which makes us humans ....we as humans are
1. intriguing
2. inquisitive
3. stubborn
4. lustfull / greedy
he plays with all these emotions to pass his time .
while it is also probably true as to how the insects in the world view us....they probably think of us as true evils .
Death by Username good point
I would argue he's not really a villain, he never lies, and always holds up his end of the deal, he only wants others to hold up their end
what is a villain anyway ? he is no liar sure but he also is a sharp cheeky bastard who does not give the terms and conditions directly . he most certainly exists in an entirely different realm of existence which makes ours look like a chessboard with live pieces. added to the fact that he probably has no one to play with . so he plays chess with himself....geralt being most favorite/flexible piece like a queen/minster while most being like pawns .
2 years after I watched this video for the first time, I keep coming back to it. Love the choice of background score, the words and the narration.
yep, very well made.
What makes o dimm so interesting is all the subtle hints towards who he really is. How you meet him at a crossroads and make a deal, how he has insane power yet disguises himself as a friendly face, how he deals in souls and can seemingly not be killed, only banished the parallels to the devil are so subtle yet they sit right in your face. Brilliant
References of Gaunther O'Dimm can also be found in the dlc blood and wine. With the spotted wight that turns out to be an old lady cursed by some beggar who used to sell mirrors. The old lady used to be a beautiful woman. But she was cursed into a spotted wight because she refused to give the beggar any food. The curse was broken by Geralt.
Ps. Gaunther O'Dimm is from another universe. It even says so in the witcher lore.
Caught that last night!!!!
Yea the guy mentions this a bit at the end of the vid
There is also Dettlaff's hideout in Beauclair, where the journals you can find suggest that the previous owner's son made a deal with a merchant because he had no toys, then his family was kicked out of their home which as you can observe is now filled with toys, just like spoons for the old lady.
Could he be Nyarlathotep?
He breaks a spoon in front of you right before the storm hits the ship and in the the story of the wright in blood and wine when you lift the curse she says he broke a spoon in front of the manor before casting the curse
When he pushed the wooden spoon into that poor peasant's face and started time, I shuddered. And my jaw hit the floor. At that time I knew he was evil.
same
Gaunter is one of my favorite videogame characters. Thinking about him sends shivers down my spine. Perfectly executed
I never played any of the witchers, but I started watching this channel, and I watched them so many times, I went out and got the witcher 3. Love these videos! Keep it up man, really well done.
The whole story from Hearts of Stone is from polish Legend of Mr Twardowski, in this legend the devil needs to meet twardowski in city of rome but the devil trickt him and he meets him in a tavern called rome. The olgierd von everec is modeled on character Andrzej Kmicic from book "Potop" by Henryk Sienkiewicz, scene of fight between olgierd and geralt is inspired by scene of fight between kmicic and wolodyjowski from polish film "Potop" based on book.
Interesting. Please tell more :)
Lukasz,
Thanks for sharing that mate.
This Olgierd looks like a Cossack, and behave like a mix between Bohun ( from the "Ogniem i Mieczem" novel) and Kmicic . I literally love this culturals compilations ;)
In Polish version during the fight with Olgierd inside the painting, Olgierd says something that can be translated: "They will bury the witcher, so sky is crying." ("Wiedźmina będą chować, to i niebo płacze.") here in 1.24-1.27 ua-cam.com/video/_rmVZ3axJNY/v-deo.html (background whisper).These are exactly the same words that Kmicic used during the fight scene with wolodyjowski. "They will bury the colonel, so sky is crying." ("Półkownika będą chować, to i niebo płacze.") here in 3.57-4.02 ua-cam.com/video/wNVPW_Xx66k/v-deo.html (the words of the actor, not the narrator).
In my opinion, the story is also very, very obviously inspired by the fairytale by Wilhelm Hauff "Das kalte Herz".
You forgot to mention this creepy little detail: a sharp piercing sound can be heard if all the Professor's candles are put out around his pentagram circle.
That's apparently the demon within his house being freed.

G.O.D. how do being banished feels
G.O.D. Why do you keep stalking me on UA-cam? Haven't you caused enough grief???

Same! 0__0
I knew the story was incredibly well written already but wow...... those extra details you fleshed out. Amazing.
In the end if you choose to save olgeird and O’Dimm challenges you to a game it would’ve been hilarious if that game was Gwent.
He even suggests it.
The most common theory I have encountered so far is that Gaunter O´Dimm is in fact the devil of the Witcher univserse and that his initials are a mockery towards God. This theory also states that one of his other monikers, namely the Master Mirror one, is another clue to him being the devil as the devil can be seen as the evil reflection or counterpart to God.
However, I greatly prefer the theory in this video that establishes Gaunter as the de facto God of the Witcher universe. Aside from the fact that this would fit the kinda depressed undertones of the Witcher better, I also find it deeply disturbing that an entity which is supposed to be a loving and merciful one turns out to be a sadistic voyeur to whom humans are nothing more than toys. At the same time, he is completely uncomprehensible to humans to the point where the realization of his existence or simply a mere idea of who he truly is causes severe depression, insanity and death.
Definitely one of the best and most memorable ways to handle a villain I have ever seen.
He cant be the de facto God because, why would he be bounded by simple deals? And he wouldve been able to give Geralt answers about Ciri. Hes a powerful being, but definitely not THE God.
RaginDXDemon That argument is solely based on the assumption that every God has automatically be modeled after the judeo-christian version. Which is just one of many thousand deities that are worshipped. Since The Witcher is heavily influenced by old European folklore, it is more likely that the God of this universe is a pagan one. Also, who is to to say that a God always has to be omnipotent and not be bound by rules? There are countless beliefs in our world where the power of deities are limited. Even the judeo-christian God is de facto under a(self imposed) limitation due to man's free will.
+Vahlen Im not convinced because of the level of the self imposed will. And the fact that through Ciri we learn there are many universes/worlds. So why would god be held down by one universe/world when the reason for the creation of things is because of god? How is a mortal beyond gods reach? Thats a severe limitation as it seems if you ask me. Then theres the defeat, Gaunter is pulled to wherever he came from, instead of just walking away in blinding light. If anything he comes off as a demi god of sorts.
RaginDXDemon Again, a God does not have to be omnipotent to be considered a God. There are countless tales of deities in our world that got outsmarted by mortals as well, so that is not really such a lore breaking event. A multiverse theory can furthermore be broken down to a couple of theories regarding its deity. Either there is just a single omnipotent one that created all of them, or every universe has its own version of God. And The Witcher universe just had the bad luck to end up with a trickster-like God that likes to make deals but is also bound by his own powers to stay true to them. At least that is what I see as a fitting version which I can subscribe to.
En-Sabah-Nur Satan always makes deals to trap souls.
G.O.D granting my wish " you don't want to know my name everyone who hears it dies."
Me: "yeah that's the point."

I just checked and "Gaunter O'Dimm" is an anagram for "Argentum Domi" which is latin for "Silver of the house". The reflective part of a mirror - which is something every regular house has - is made of silver... master mirror.

One of the most i like in HOS dlc is that's music.That's always make me shivering.
It’s one of my fave soundtracks from the game, if not THE fave. Gaunter’s theme is instantly memorable and the credits song was nothing short of awesome, there’s even a bit where his theme and Geralt’s clashes with one another

@@Sahil-hp3fz how?
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FACT: I don't think O'Dimm is the omnipotent one in their universe, because if you side with him at the end of the game, he'll give you multiple reward choices. One of those choices is to ask where Ciri is, then O'Dimm will reply with: "There a certain things even I cannot meddle with. Ciri is hidden from my gaze, beyond my reach". this indicates that he has limits to his power. What is your opinion FudgeMuppet?
EpicSheepGamer I believe that he's one god among multiple, someone similar to Loki.
I don't think that's quite correct. Ciri Is beyond _this_ universe. If Gaunter's the God of the Witcher 3 Universe, he's *the god of the Witcher 3* universe, not the God of whatever universes Ciri travels to.
I think Ciri is still from the Witcher universe, she just has the power to travel to other universes/worlds (somewhat like O'Dimm), but when she is in the Witcher universe and O'Dimm is in charge, then she should still fall under his rules, but don't. That leads me to think that some things like maybe "fate" cannot be messed with, even by O'Dimm. Ciri is just a mortal person with incredible powers.
Mmm, in that case, the Witcher 3 Is set in _our_ universe, remember? Ciri went to _our_ world, briefly.
O'Dimm probably did as well, judging from what he said at the end (when you beat him and it is explained in the video). Some people think that O'Dimm speaks languages from Earth, because he has been there. It would also make sense from a dramatical perspective as it would build on the character and make the player think on the character even more. Some think it is just Elder speech. Maybe The Witcher world is in an alternate universe?
Amazing video! Really like how you approach it from in game lore and real life inspiration
Really good video man. I have 1,600 hours clocked in this game on Steam, and I never thought someone would make me think even more about HOS expansion, but you sure did. You made it creepier too lol
according to the legend, sir Twardowski used his magic mirror to bring the soul of a dead queen, Barbara Radziwiłłówna, so King Sigismund August could talk to her. Twardowski also escaped the devil and hid on the moon. The mirror is still in a museum on one polish town.
There is much more than that. Whole DLC is based on that legend . Also in every mission is a Easter egg to some polish books.

I came across the song while exploring the area. At first, I thought it was a song about marriage, right up until the final line, where it twigged that there was something deeper going on. I encountered the song again after the third wish, and I noticed the parallels between the song and Olgierd, wondering if this was a song about him, although I still couldn't place the 'gore and torment' bit.
Later, I challenged O'Dimm, began the challenge, and then the song started playing for a third time, followed by me saying "Oh, HERE'S the 'gore and torment' bit. This was a bad idea."
When the timer ran out, I threw myself off a cliff. Better to die now than waiting for the stars to expire.

Gaunter O'Dimm Greetings master mirror
Gaunter O'Dimm how are you doing dude
I freaking loved Gaunter so much and need actual answers, but at the same time I love the mystery behind the character. He's so cool.
Even today I still get goosebumps whenever I hear about Gaunter O'Dimm or listen to his theme song.
My theory is that he is in fact both "god" and "Satan", as he is both the reflection and what is being reflected. Him having the powers of god, but the personality of the devil then makes sense, and it ads up with his obsession with mirrors and reflection. One of the main themes of the Witcher is that things are never black and white, mostly just shades of gray. So it would make sense that instead of there being an ultimate good and an ultimate evil in this universe, there would instead be something in between, someone who is both God and Gods evil reflection. I also read somewhere someone pointing out his names sounds a lot like "Haunter of dim", as in he haunts those he doesn't see as clever enough. Which makes sense, as he only hurts people he sees as fools, like the drunk man in the tavern, and he only takes the souls of people who he manages to outsmart. This is the reason for why there is always a chance for people to beat him, he could easily take the souls of anyone he wanted, but he gives them a small change to outsmart him, showing that its only the "dim" that gets punished. Which is one of the main similarities between god and the devil, they both punish those who make dumb choices and act foolishly, which leads me to believe that he is in a sense both of them.
Wow
Makes sense
I dont see God or Satan acting like this tbh. To me he is a higher devil but not satan.
Is that your idea of God so weak a man God?
What about the Toussaint, where the women that got turned into a Wight. She said something about the beggar and selling glass or something like that. Don't quite remember, long time ago. Could that be Gaunter that was mentioned?
The Holy Meem it was definitely him, his theme even plays when you talk about it
The Holy Meem DUN DUN DUN
Thats what next video is going to be about.
Yeah pretty sure, he's also in the background during BaW like he is during HoS
And Gaunter's theme song is playing in the background while she's talking about it.
Bruh...chills when you showed how many cameos Gaunter O Dimm makes
o'dimm being in the background of the three tasks is just so unsettling... this dude just gives me chills every time i see his name
Somebody tried to tell me the unseen elder could kill him lmao
derek Brogan kill the devil? Lol
Even that professor told us. He is evil itself so he can not be killed. The unseen elder is powerful but O'Dimm has his own pocket dimension.
no matter how fast Unseen elder can move, if Gaunter stops the time he is done for ... also he would definitelly not want to kill him because i think he would find him fascinating
Yeah, I've read similar things in UA-cam comments. How do you kill a "god" or the devil? Vampires on the other hand, albeit difficult to kill, maybe even impossible for humans to kill, are still living beings. They are nothing compared to an entity that can bend reality, I suspect Gaunter can make the unseen elder disappear with a click of his fingers.
@@mrnobody6354 I mean the unseen elder is basically unkillable by anyone other than the likes of Gaunter (if others like him exist and I hope fucking not) as from what we know the elder vampires are the strongest beings and can only be killed by their kinds and the unseen elders are the strongest of the race. But yeah. Can't kill a god

Incredible video, thanks
I watch all your lore vids before I start a playthrough excellent stuff sir bravo 👏👏👏
Such an amazing character....wow. We need more dlc's for Witcher 3. Please!! I love this universe...this setting....
You neglected Zoroastrian mythology, whose "devil" character is one of two Gods. In that religion, there is a god of good and a god of evil. Both equally powerful.
Thank you very much!! I really enjoyed it
This DLC was so rich with interesting lore, just like the rest of the Witcher stories. CDPR is sitting on a veritable gold mine of compelling narratives. I really hope we get another Witcher game soon. Surely they must have been working on it for a long time already. How could they not be? I really liked Cyberpunk 2077 and I definitely want to see more of that world but their absolute top priority really needs to be the Witcher.
Im sure that with all of the recent interest driven by the Netflix series and the subsequent spike in book sales, surely they’re hard at work on a new Witcher game. I wouldn’t care where the new game falls in the timeline. Literally any chunk of time in this universe would be absolutely thrilling.
