When Geralt lets Ciri trash Avalla'ch's study is my all-time favorite scene between them. He is showing his paternal side and I do consider their bond as more of a father and daughter than I do anything else. He and Yen are her parents by choice. Pavetta and Enhyr may have created her biologically, but she was never really theirs. She was always meant for Geralt and Yen.
Not entirely correct - Pavetta was a loving mother, maybe not doting, but loving, Duny was just in this marriage as a calculation. He cared, but more out of political calculation, rather than familial love.
I like that scene too I like that Geralt and her had fun and Yennefer at first was like should I join or not but then at the last minute surprise she ended up messing the portrait up.
@@SuperSaiyan3985 So what? I can still like it regardless. You don't get to tell me what to like.
@@SuperSaiyan3985 You're the personification of the "ACKCHYUALLY" meme ( i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/021/665/DpQ9YJl.png ). Let people enjoy what they want, how about that?
Word. Totally unexpected and a good break in the story and change in pace.
I really don't know why this was left out of the show
Because of these short seasons on Netflix. A traditional 2p episode season would show it.
@@Cuban20 They could have skipped the whole Yennefer thing, since in the books she's way more misterious and we learn about her past just because of what she says. Also they could have taken it a bit more slowly.
@@ericv.christian201 i like yen as a misterius bitch, shes this unrealisticly stunning woman, Glamoured by magic, that is why geralt fell in love with her, it shows he have issues, mother complax...Andrzej Sapkowski knows his shit, creating her back story takes away her mystic, i like not knowing how she look as a hunchback
@@ericv.christian201 You can't take it more slowly with 8 episodes. And yeah that's the books. But with a series we finally got to see her upbringing. Which many of us did enjoy. Instead of the whole "mysteriousness" which worked for the books, but would have just been annoying for a show.
Glad they went a different route.
@@Cuban20 yea you can, by spliting this into more seasons. I mean Got had a trash final season not cuz it had nothing more to tell but bcs it was beyond rushed. Still Clegane bowl was LIIIT.
Geralt and Ciri’s relationship is one of the most captivating in the books and games. It’s a shame it wasn’t covered in the series well at all; their first encounter was supposed to be a stand out moment. I just hope season 2 makes up for it.
The show should have kept building to it and building to it instead of rushing it like they did.
@@FightOstinFight wasnt it the last thing to happen in the season? Im confused.
dan emp it was but it was rushed
It was a standout moment. It was literally the ending!
@@FightOstinFight but they met at the end it wasn't rushed at all
That chapter, jeezus. It was great. I mean in the show Geralt's like "I will protect her blah blah" In the books he legit doesn't want her at all (partly because he doesn't know how to take care of kids really and thinks his lifestyle would be more than awful for her) then they meet in brokilon, after whitch Geralt finally start to take a liking to her. And after the siege of Cintra and how they meet, just perfect, and it makes sense why Geralt started caring for her, and also why he was shocked about what happend in Cintra, since he was like "Fuck, I really hope she's not dead.". Just perfect.
This short story makes the Something More story even better, the part where Ciri tells Geralt she is his destiny and Geralt replies with "You are something more" is easily one of the best parts of the saga.
How the show left that out I have no idea.
@@Witcherino They didn't have time because they were pushing backstory for strong woman Yen.
@@Kintabl and diversity was more important than storytelling ;)
@@milosstojanovic4623 If they want diversity they shoudl take a look at marvel. And there's also not that much forced shit, I mean if there is a race change whatever it's comics and they pick great actors so yeah.
The series didn’t cover this well imo
the series was a poorly paced, wholly unfocused and extremely poorly written piece of shit
@@razorwireclouds5708 I won't say it's a piece of shit, but having such a short season doesn't give them time to actually see everything.
@@Cuban20 frankly, i find the entire thing an insult to Cavill's hard work and dedication to bringing Geralt to TV.
i love his work here, but the rest of the cast is wooden and just miscast af.
the music is forgettable garbage
the first episode shoehorns in a bunch of characters who in turn shove tones of exposition down our throats, and on top of all that we get a massive battle and a castle siege (which both suck).
am I or is anyone else supposed to give a shit about characters that we've just been introduced to?
honestly, why blow the budget on armies, CGI and a hundred mediocre actors?
razorwireclouds you’re over exaggerating.
@@razorwireclouds5708 I agree with your criticisms. One thing I didn't like is that while watching the various performances, it was quite obvious which actors were more experienced than others...this made it rather hard to watch as I kept cringing at some of the performances.
Why they cut this important scene, and one of the funniest interaction between the still spoiled princess Ciri and Geralt, and turn it into Ciri being called into the forest and the elf boy getting shot by the dryads. How was that any better? It was empty and boring. And dryads do not shoot elves.
"The dryads do not shoot elves": EXACTLY!!! I screamed at my TV when I saw that scene! Rubbish!
Wasn't he a half breed?
Yeah that part should of been taken out and we should of gotten this Storyline instead
@@inneruniverse17 well he was black so maybe they didn't know
Yeah his ears were covered ye chodes. That, and they didn’t kill him after.
Yeah, the show wasn't that good when it comes to Geralt and Ciri in the first season.. and the end - "Who's Yennefer?".. wtf?.. where is :"Ciri, you are something more. Much more"
Yeah, their relationship wasn't established well enough so we feel nothing when they are united at the end.
They actually shot that scene (look at Lauren's Twitter) but as she said it wasnt earned
Im hoping that season 2 will show you them bonding first thing
@@legendaryoutcast4440 I hope season 2 is the typical 13 episode season. I've heard alot of concern about 8 episode season 1. However, think of the 1st season as a pilot season. They saved 2 million (400k per episode) on Cavil salary alone, beings that it was only 8 episodes versus 13.
If the show writers are smart they will put this scene in the next season as a flashback.. Maybe the first ep of season 2. the first season ending like it did, felt off since it shows Ciri recognizing Geralt. (it could be because of the dream). But IMO how did she know Geralt in her dream was the Geralt of Rivia she was looking for? It would make the ending of season one more potent if they did this imo.
When a show runner tells the fans that they are doing everything by the book, there is a 99.9% chance they are not.
My favorite is in the books where Geralt finds Ciri again for the 3rd time in lower Sodden in the house of the merchant Yurga where she asks Geralt to say she is his destiny where he replies "your much more than that Ciri much more." Makes me wanna cry at a touching father daughter moment.
I really have to read all the books. The story seems to be extraordinary ! Thank you for your resume Witcher !
Please do! It really is extraordinary.
The short stories are super fun and amazing to read. Grains of truth is probably my favorite.
I've read a few, they are OK but the witcher 3 game is better ^^
I honestly think I woulden't have enjoyed them if I had not played the games first :O
But i do recommend you to read them
@@patriklundberg307 no way. Witcher 3 story is pretty mediocre compared to 2 other games and books
This chapter and Something More chapter were the parts of the novels I thought they would at least adapt into the show. Many of my friends loved the show and I can see why but to the book readers, we're sitting here thinking, "Why in the Hell did they leave this part out!?" I tried explaining to my friends about how the bonding between Ciri and Geralt was basically the main part of the narrative. Every single one of them basically had a response of "yeah, yeah, whatever. I can't for wait for season 2!" I now realize, a lot of people have very low standards and want to keep it that way. -_-
The pay off at the end of Something More was so tear jearking and so emotional. If the show went that route, they would've hit it out of the ball park and even more people would fall in love with it.
Honestly, there's no excuse for the show runners to make this ridiculous mistake. The show is clearly a rushed product that they even had to cut out the meat of the story.
I do appreciate what the show had to offer but honestly it's exactly how Netflix Geralt described it. "Like ordering a pie and finding out it has no filling."
This very crucial part of the saga was totally eliminated from the series. Instesd they made time to feature Yen's nonsensical backstory. I really can't wait to see how their decisions will be justified in S2.
They should of made the season 10 episodes or made Geralt and Ciri meet earlier this Storyline needed to be in the series they should of eliminated that dumb Forest part with those elves or whatever they were
Understatement of the year...
@@TbYolo the "elves" with spears and some crossbows? Those were the driads
One of the most boring Battles that I've ever come across in the history of TV shows... I was literally shouting to the top of my lungs, FORGET THIS SHIT AND GET TO WHERE CIRI AND GERALT AT!!
That moment you realise the old Polish low budget series is way better than what Netflix did.
The show completely butchered Brokilon short story. Instead of that useless Yennefer arc in Aretuza we could have proper Brokilon, grain of truth short story etc but no they had to make Yennefer the main character cause she's strong independent "wamen".
The show sucks
They butchered the dragon story, the question of price and the last wish too. The only story that was presented well imo was the Lesser Evil.
The show makes it seem like the first time they meet is after Ciri gets taken in by the farmer family when that was actually the second or third time they met.
CDPR did such a good job making you care for Ciri. I didn’t know who she was till TW3 but the moment it flashed back to the Forest I cared for her
in which game we first meet ciri, cuz I played them all and we meet with her in witcher 3 when she's young. So, in witcher 1 or 2 we dont see ciri?
@ books you idiot
@ read the books, you're missing out big time.
@@ilmentore7 no thanks, books are boring
@ says all. You literally ask how did we meet Ciri and when I give you the answer you ignore it because it doesn't appeal to you. And then you lot call yourselves Witcher fans lol.
The way Netflix botched the Brokilon plot was unforgivable
My guess is the low budget. In 8 episodes they had to introduce all three (four with Jaskier) characters to us, prepare the foundations for future adventures and therefore had to make hard decisions cutting some interesting but not important plots off. This is why they they added Dara, so he can help Ciri survive in the woods. The story about her escaping, meeting Geralt and so on would require at least one more episode, could be more confusing. Like I said - I think the decisions were hard but necessary.
@@JoanTheBee 10 mil $ per episode is much more then GoT had in first 5 seasons per episode, so low budget is nonsense ....... And there is no excuse why it looks so cheap
@@ufiCz No one ever said it was 10 mil. These are all only rumors. And - the first season of GoT showed really nothing, while the Witchar had to put a lot of information and foundation in 8 episodes.
@@JoanTheBee So GoT, didn't show nothing ? Man, if this isn't biggest bs. GoT put lot more information then witcher. You could see many different part of world, from north to south to east. They intruduced almost every main character in very huge and complex story. In witcher you don't know sh** about world, you know there is some mage place, cintra and some evil nilfguaard. World of witcher isn't even half complex as Ice and Fire world. First book GoT has more then 900 pages, witcher 300.
@@ufiCz Yes, they showed the characters but didn't teach us anything about them. No backstories, no hisotry, no depth etc. I'm not saying it was worse, I'm saying it was different. GoT didn't need it, while Witcher did. Just stop compare these two shows, because I get the feeling that you're just a GoT fanboy and I won't waste my time on you if that's the case.
There is a actual Witcher school in Poland’s you should go there and film your experience you actually go through the Witcher trials and can pass or fail and even be killed in combat with monsters it seem like it will be either really cool or cringe filled eurogamer did a video on it you should look into it
I forgot it is at a castle in the middle of a forest that I think kind of looks like kare morhen please excuse me if is spelled that wrong
I love the cinematics and style of this video so much!
Also, I'm a fan of you telling those short stories as I haven't read the books and would love to know some more of the lore :)
One of the great things about GoT was identifying with the Stark family and investing in the moment where they'll be one day, reunited. Of course, less emotional in a single season but they could have invoked something very similar, maybe even stronger considering its a father-daughter bond, and a sweet but rebellious little girl at that. That writing room didn't tap into any paternal/maternal instincts that we all have to keep us hooked.
Yeah, I still thank GoT for this.
They screwed up the ending so bad....that was supposed to be such a teary moment but this felt like the most generic crap in the world,I shed a few tears when reading this and in the show it made me wanna hit my screen with disappointment...so no tnx folks...why cant we have anything nice anymore...?
These chapters in the books are so well written and unearthed a sense of curiosity I hadn't felt since the games and before that the Halo games.
The fact that they left it out of the show and didn't cover it all that well in the games seddens me. I get the feeling that the show purposely saved it for later though.
Yeah, books do that to you))
What hurts the most is that Geralt gets replaced in Brokilon by Dara, who's basically Will Smith's elven bastard. And more importantly he's a character NOT in the books, and is essentially useless in the show, other than telling Ciri she's a bad person for what Calanthe did (VERY subtle political commentary on colonialism).
"Will Smith's elven bastard" 😂😂😂😂😂
this remembers me that stupid finale "who is yennefer" haha and you are like wtf are u talking about? u serius right now? who gives a fuck about that? you both finally met and those are your first words? they want yen to be more important than she really is, she's just a secundary characters just like triss or anyone else, deal with it, the witcher is about geralt and ciri, I hope the showrunner wakes up, she has been saying that the only opinions she cares about are the ones from the fandom and not the critics, well ms. lauren the fandom will love anything that has a relation with the witcher but it doesn't really mean that you have done a great job with the show and you will only foolish yourself if you don't want to see it, it would be wise to hear what the critics have to say about it and learn from your mistakes but if you think you have done eveything perfect well then the show ain't gonna get better and right now well it isn't too good to be honest, also she has changed way to much when it wasn't really necessary cause you have the perfect sources available the books...
You better bet your ass I was about to cry when I saw Ciri lying on that bed.
i can't believe Netflix dared to change this magnificent story! that show is utterly doomed
Tbh I hope they cover some Flash backs with Geralt and Ciri first interactions like that would be so wholesome, but I guess the producers were worried they would lose people straying from the action so much which lets be honest, the side stories help make the action more meaningful
I got The Last Wish for Christmas and I can’t wait to get fully stuck in!
Get ready to feel depressed at realizing how badly Netflix botched it.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO!!! It's one (many) of my biggest peeves about the Netflix show.
Honestly I feel like I"m watching that "action film" Robin Hood from 2018 when I'm watching Netflix's Witcher.
"You can only leave IF... you mate with all these young buxom women in the tribe"... I graciously accept
Right? How could I possibly refuse!?
Would you consider doing a video on Emhyr var Emreis? I'd really like to hear your take on him.
I love your videos :)
Why are we seeing multiple 2+ minute long ads on these videos , you are ruining your videos by allowing that , annoying when I’m laying down trying to listen to lore and multiple times long cuts in the videos happen to play obnoxiously long ads
Thanks for reminding me of how much I love this story. This story was the reason I suggested you some time ago if you could cover Brokilon in a video, and you did some time ago.
Too bad the show barely covered this story and not only that, this first encounter of Geralt and Ciri makes the "Something More" ending one of the best parts of the saga and the show didn't cover that either.
I hope you can continue to cover the short stories, that would be awesome.
Damn shame this wasn't included in the show. I think this has permanently worsened the impact of the story for the rest of the Netflix show. It's such a brilliant moment from Andrej Sepkowski that really sets up their relationship together and I can't believe they simply ignored it. I'm worried that the relationship between Geralt and Ciri will just feel weird as hell in season 2, as them meeting at the end of season 1 was miles less impactful or emotional than in the books.
So the show just completely skipped this? Or is this being set up for when they finally see each other at the end of the final episode? Also how old Ciri meant to be at this point? The timeline is so confusing to me not having read the books. It doesn't help when the actress playing Ciri, I'm assuming, seems much too old to play her.
The show skiped this almost completely. Ciri was at Brokilon but without Geralt, they changed that.
Ciri in the books at this time was 9.
Unless Geralt was locked up for years, I believe there was a mention of it being twelve years since he chose the law of surprise, which in theory means in the series she's meant to be around 11 or so. As for the actress's apparent age, I gotta say, she looks younger than my thirteen year old, equal in age at oldest, in makeup, to me anyway. I completely agree to disagree on that point. It would be great if they could have had a kid playing a kid, but from all the interviews and behind the scenes I've seen for movies and TV that include child actors, I can understand why they would have chosen an adult they thought might pass.
I don't imagine that they had the largest budget, and having to pay for tutors (the most expedient for filming) for one child actor probably didn't fit in it. Working around standard school hours *and* child labor laws would likely have been a logistics nightmare where such a major character was concerned. Not the best creative choice, I agree, but I do understand why it was made.
@@thisismetemptingfate Pretty much the entire cast of Harry Potter would have a word or two to say about that.
@@VictusPrime I'll grant my ignorance of the educational background of the cast of Harry Potter. My understanding came from US TV, you're still comparing apples to oranges. Given that The Witcher was filmed across at least three countries with more distance between them than the UK in it's largest dimension, if I estimated distance properly from online maps, a better comparison would be the children of traveling entertainers.
The only time effective way to get that done would be with homeschooling. That also means navigating multiple different sets of child labor laws. There are likely other intricacies that I'm missing entirely when it comes to a child working internationally, I'm not in the film industry. At the end of the day there are something's that are, I believe, fairly common across most developed countries.
1. Children can not sign binding contracts.
2. If their school work suffers, the job's gotta go.
3. Unless one parent has sole custody, both must agree for the child to be able to leave the country without the potential for kidnapping charges.
4. While a company could potentially sue the parents for breech of contract, if they withdraw consent at anytime, things will become messy.
While I'm sure there are work arounds for all of those things, at the end of the day if they can find an adult who may pass, it's much less of a headache, and much less likely to result in the potential for a lawsuit. I too would have liked to see a more authentic creative choice, but I completely understand why it wasn't made.
Love all your stuff witcher george, keep it up
Would be cool, if you could do more videos considering differences between the show and the books! Could encourgae more people to read these masterpieces :D
You should do a Video on Hemdall if there is any lore on him.
Your videos are better than the show. Thank you so much.
Dang the series really needs this.. So much immersive storytelling that they changed 😢 guess its the pressure of having a show continue beyond one season there isnt room for immersion 😩
Ermiin is mousesack... Life has been flipped🤣🤣
Imagine a 15 minute video can do more justice and better explanation than a 8 episode show.
Okay... so I FINALLY the timeline of all the meetings between Geralt and Ciri!
1st - Geralt first had a connection with her when he invoked the Law of Surprise when he was to get a reward from Dunny (young Emhyr) cause Pavetta was pregnant but Emhyr didn't know it at first. BUT while having claim to her he could chose at what point he can come to pick her up.
2nd - He came to visit their home in Cintra BUT he didn't really feel like taking on a child so he just left without even seeing her (though she knew that some witcher was supposed to take her)
3rd - he rescued her from a manticore in the woods with the help of Dryads, now this is the first time he actually saw her and she met him BUT even then he chose to let her go back to her family.
4th - Now this was after the Slaughter in Cintra, when the Nilfgaardian army took over the city she escaped into the woods and was rescued and later adopted/took in by a peasant woman. Then Geralt by mere chance (or rather destiny) had rescued the husband of that woman and again invoked the Law of Surprise as his prize. And since that man had no idea his wife adopted an orphan it turned out that that girl was CIRI! And now this time finally Geralt decided it's finally time to accept that the girl IS indeed bound to him by destiny so finally he decides to take her to Kaer Morhen to train!
This is such a damn conundrum to me as I heard 3 different stories about how Geralt got her and it turns out they were all correct.... Not to mention that their family had their main home in Cintra but also had their um... 2nd home in Skelliga where they were friends with the An Craites, going back and forth between Skeliga and Cintra really confused me. :/
This explains why two of the interaction choices between Geralt and Ciri in Witcher 3 that lead to the "good" ending involve being silly with Ciri.
I about died when Geralt knocks over the cup in the study super casually like a cat XD
I absolutely love how you visually support your video by using perfect fitting artworks and tracking shots ingame!
"Witcher George, high time we painted over that" lol jk I love this channel
Hey Witcher Geroge, I have a quest for you: can you find out what those symbols on the wall behind Gaunter O Dimm mean in the scene where he sticks a spoon in someones eye? On the wall behind him there are some mysterious drawings and I can‘t imagine what they could mean and there seems to be no video about it... Thanks in advance!
Did Geralt dream about Ciri also before meeting her or not?
If yes than did he see her in dreams exactly the way she looks like, before ever seeing her?
Also the same for Ciri dreaming about Geralt.
So what's the mod you used for the shots?
I always play the theme where Geralt finds her on the island when I read the part where they meet after the fall of Cintra. A couple short passages but by that time I get misty eyed. I think that probably is my favorite book scene.
Game wise I think where I as Geralt choose to believe in Ciri at the end and let her go face the White Frost because it really brings home the father daughter relationship and seeing that relationship is a big part of why i became a father for real.
Thank for the Research on the Witcher lore and you buy the books ( I don’t Support the author for being an ass I love his WitcherVerse and respect ✊🏽 it) now I can watch the tv Netflix keep it up 👍🏽
Hmm favorite Seen I like when Ciri was training but can choose only stuck in game version tho 😅
This should've been in the show as it would explain how much Geralt cares to go through anything for Ciri. They placed too much emphasis on 'destiny' like it just somehow gives them a relationship. Pavetta and Emhyr meeting each other and falling in love despite his curse, that's destiny. But suddenly hugging each other like long lost relatives at the end when they were still strangers, I just don't buy it.
We can all see why you made a video about this story haha
You should do a video on the Witcher Raven as in his wiki it stats he was apart of the school of the Griffin which I find odd as his armor looks nothing like griffin armor I’d like to know more about this character overall
im austrian so i played the witcher 3 in german and its really funny how ermion is called mousesack again (of course translated) in the german version.
I feel sorry, for the show. If they had hired true show runners instead of biased ones, then it would have been a thousand times better. They cut this part out, a very important part, and changed a lot of things, just to replace it with useless unimportant ones, just to show off their agenda...
what do you mean by biased showrunners? i dont have much knowledge of the behind the scenes but it definitely feels like there were creators involved that didnt really give a shit about telling the proper source material
@@ShadeStormXD to be honest, you could be right! I might be wrong, but I just feel that most of the casting choice and how they tell the story is influenced by something. But it is just my opinion, and since I do not like it, I do not watch it. Simple. Anyway, thank you for your reply! I think you can be easily right. But, still it is still sad, that they mistreat such a good story.
This is a much stronger demostration of the concept of destiny. Two people, bound by destiny, even If they don't know each other, somehow through thick and thin, destiny will lead one to another. In the show, Ciri was literally told by Calanthe to find Geralt, how is that destiny? Honestly that part where Calanthe told Ciri to 'find Geralt of Rivia' is so weird and out of place. Calanthe will never, ever send Ciri to find Geralt, never.
It makes good cut out for trailer, i guess :)
So much better. Netflix needs to step up their adaptation.
I wanted to see this so much in the series. But no, for some reason, they instead added more sex scenes and Yen's surgery...
We need a Witcheress Ciri based game. Come on @CDProjectRed
The thumbnail is perfect. 👊🏻👌🏻
My favorite is the qwent cenematic trailer where her and Geralt are playing qwent and nilfguardian troops walk in and all Geralt say is "let me guess she has a dragon"
Hey bro. Love your content but the ends always cathc me off guard. There's no lead up to it. You're just like "ok that's all" 😅
My favorite is the Eternal Fire. Funniest of all the stories plus dodo and dandelion are both great.
beautiful video Sir Witcher 😍 thanks! love them ❤
So how many attack points does the sword of destiny have?
Two edges.
The show might not be perfect, but it's certainly a hell of a lot better than the first attempt to attempt it to screen. Hell, the games even screw things up. The books are a complicated thing, due the fact that they are told out of order throughout the stories but also in the main saga. And don't get me started on Lady of the Lake and that clusterfuck of wibbly-wobbly-jeremy-bearimy bull shit.
Hope witcher George brings out merchandise one day,
Great vid! Last wish and sword of destiny are top notch!!@ i just finished those two books and I've stated on the Blood of Elves. They are must read book!
seriously where is geralts number 1 dad mug.
What are these images from? The images of Geralt and ciri in the woods? The game footage? I remember the scene from when they reunite on the isle of mists but what’re all these other game scenes from?
They are modded scenes.
S0urc3C0de I am a fucking Xbox peasant.
Read the story and see how Netflix fucked it up. There is no father-daughter relationship in the show, ffs...
feminists are going to put Geralt- Dandelion gay love story in season 2 with a penis-shaped Nilfgaard army.
Netflix dropped the ball in first season.
No black elf in this story? Dreadlock "dryads" with spears? Ou.. thank god I must have just a bad dream a few days ago... :D
i’m sorry but what i’m I missing I feel stupid
he rescued her as a mission, how was she his child of surprise?
Favorite scene must be when ciri reawakens in the hut
Of course destiny is real in the books
Favourite moment between Ciri and Geralt has to be on the Isle of Mist when Geralt believes Ciri is dead.
I was in tears. Then her spirit revived her and she hugs him close. You can see how emotional he is that she is alive.
why the fuck did Netflix people change this
Good god Brokilon is such a recurrent place later into the story and I'm 100% sure Netflix will keep butchering it in future seasons
I wonder, do the games incorporate the events and characters of the books in between the games or something like that to fill in the gaps of how certain people know eachother, how certain things happen, etc? I hope that makes sense. I'm new to the game lore and have only played the 3rd but to my knowledge, there are characters from the books that just kind of pop up in the third/ We also see this meeting in the game but it's just the last moments of it
I really hope that they adapt this scene into a scene of Season 2. I think the reason they chose to combine the Brokilon story with her flight from Cintra was because they didn't want to break up the timeline any more than they already had, and also because the they wouldn't be able to use the same actress for a much younger Ciri. And it's such an essential scene that the writers did not overlook it by any means. It was a very deliberate decision. Which means they are either planning to incorporate it into Season 2, or they really have no idea what in the hell they are doing. This is a very scary possibility seeing as they have changed several things for no other reason than personal preference rather than the restrictions of adapting a novel. The huge red flags are Fringilla Vigo and the penis armour. Also I think Borch Three Jackdaws' change from a medieval party goer to generic wise old man deserves a mention.
if there are not father and daughter bonding between geralt and ciri in season 2 its going to be really disappointing
Video idea. Remember that mission where gerlat drinks a potion that’s supposed to reverse Him being sterile.
Hey video idea.
Say if it did work. Who can potentially be the mothers of the garlat children and would they inherit the Witcher abilities. Also how they would play the storyline.
Hey I just had something really funny happen to me on the Witcher 3 I had just replayed the story like just finished it and I jumped of the ledge that’s right in front of Kaer Morhen and when I died instead of the normal death grunt it was the Wilhelm scream I found it hilarious and wanted to know if this has happened to anyone else?
Tokybook has the audiobook if anyone wants to listen
7:56 “they’re gonna let him live but he MUST produce offspring with the dryiads” oh gee, if I have to.
Ciri acted like a spoiled, but not bad kid, she was adorable. Geralt scolded almost all spoil out of her by the end of the road. I think Ciri fell for how sincere Gerald was with her, he cared sincerely, he scolded sencerely. Something she probably only saw from her gramma and Mausesack, her family, so to her it felt lile Geralt also was family. You know somewhat simular feeling - when you meet someone and it feels as if you've known that person for years, like it's your person. Not in a romantic way, but you feel it. Ciri and Geralt didn't talk like strangers, they were dad and his little girl right from the start.
There’s a lot of people here complaining the series should’ve done this instead of the direction they chose a they think this is somehow the best thing they’ve ever seen. The thing is, the series changed it a little because it fits better for tv. The books are written very uniquely and probably wouldn’t make an interesting tv series people actively want to watch more of the figure out the story. They both have their own benefits. I just think it’s dumb to claim this or the the show is somehow better or worse than another
Just found your channel. It’s fun stuff, I have remembered those parts from the books
Witcher fans: hey I've seen this one before
Mandalorian fans: what do you mean this is brand new
Netflix show is like , Ciri was destined to geralt they don't love each other it's all destiny just destiny the witcher series is full of destiny , What a stupid show
What is Geralt's moral compass?
Or what encompasses his Moral?
Garalt truly loves ciri and would give his life for her with out a second thought CDPR did an amazing job with the witcher.
...you are my destiny...
Woo - First for the First time 🙃
where did you get the footage for young ciri and gerald on different locations? is that a mod or a mission I am not aware of?
I just find your channel and can’t stop watching your videos. They are just the thing I was looking for.
i think this would have been cool in the series but i can only imagine the huge budget needed to make the elven city and everything, they'd probably blow the entire seasons budget on that one part. netlifx sort of did it, however i dont really regret they did this as it was a very amazing story.
Damn... I only played The Witcher 3, watched recaps of the previous two, and never read the books.
I'm enjoying netflix's tv series, but I felt like the bonding of the characters were lacking depth on the show. I'm disappointed to learn that they indeed did a poor job of showing that development, because it really feels amiss, unlike the game that I've experienced.
It's good enough though. It still feels amiss since they skipped whatever long bonding he got with Ciri or Yennefer, but hopefully it'll feel decent throughout the last 5 upcoming seasons.
yeah, the writing of the netflix series needs some work,
Great video
How did you get these photos done from the third game it is soo good
