Satyrs are male; nymphs are their female counterparts, attributed with perfect beauty and endless libido (hence why female/male sex addicts were given the name nymphomaniac/satyromaniac respectively). But yes; succubi of Witcher lore appear to be more like that of nymphs than their usually more demonic archetypal attributes.
@@ServantofBaal Never saw anyone use the term "satyromaniac", think most people use nymphomaniac regardless of gender, don't doubt that's not the correct usage tho.
Nice video as always, but there is one detail I can’t help but point out. I’m reading the succubus entry from the Witcher 3 and it specifically says that they don’t care about gender or appearance. If they are sentient, have a like able personality, and can satisfy the succubus’s libido, they seem to be fair game.
I know that, but I'm talking about in general here. As an avrage Joe you won't know, that your neighbour isn't a doppler, unless they transform right in front of your eyes.
@@AzureGreatheart I know that and I get that. Some demons were depicted like that to look like the satyrs who were know for their wild revelry. But Succubi aren't often depicted as such, as it is generally a detriment to their goal of getting some to have the goat legs. But in the Witcher world I guess guys are just super easy so they don't care.😂
Michael Molzan I think it’s mainly just the Witcher and Warcraft series which depict succubi like that. The only other major variation I’ve seen, (besides the original myth,) is their depiction in Final Fantasy XIV.
Fortunately for me, I find furry goats legs and hooves a bit of a deal breaker. I'll survive long enough for a real woman to sap the life energy out of me instead
Yay! Diversity in content. I hope this kind of stuff is doing well for you with how shifty Bethesda's been . You deserve a breather, and im enjoying hearing something from you i dont here as often
It does make sense to lure the males of a species with the mirage of a possible mate, animals like spiders and beetles mimic the female moths' pheromones and the female fireflies' light communication.
Looking forward to seeing these in the Netflix show. . . To see how well they use the special effects Ps. Glad to have you and this series back, Witcher Drew
With all this resurgence of the Witcher 3 and Witcher series in general I was hoping you'd do another Witcher lore video, and you delivered. I hope there is more to come, great video.
Why did they gave the Succubus the "Mage Fire Ball thing" fighting Animation? When its saied they attack with thier Nails/Legs/etc.? Was it Time, Recources?
Witcher Lore? Nice. I just started a new play-through after binge-watching the show recently. A lot of new players from what I hear. I love the universe and lore of The Elder Scrolls better than The Witcher’s but the gameplay and graphics of The Witcher are so much better than TES. I wish CD Projekt Red was able to pull a Obsidian Entertainment and create a TES game but that is pretty much impossible. I feel like it would be the best TES game ever just how Fallout: New Vegas is the best Fallout ever.
just another account my friends and I liked it. It’s not perfect and I feel like it’s not for casual fans cause the story is confusing unless you know a bit about the universe already. They are taking a year or two off from making season 2 because the fan base is pretty split, mainly due to casting choices. They’re giving the show a huge overhaul once Season 2s filming starts which is soon. Only the main characters are staying. I’d say 6 or 7/10 from a basic rating.
Immagine CD projekt Red and Obsidian made a open world game together... Obsidian responsible for world building, additional game skripts and mechanics, and CD Projekt red responsible for character, npc & wildlife design. On the lore would both teams work. THAT would be the best game I can imagine!
Heron Playz facts. Too bad huge developers don’t collaborate on huge games unless they’re partnered or under the same parent company. It would definitely be the greatest game ever.
I don't remember a succubus in the witcher 3...but it's been awhile. As long as you're doing hybrids though, you should look at a certain half-vampire half-succubus I know.
clericofchaos1 side quest. I know for a fact at least one of them was a witcher contract. I don't remember the details very well at all but I'll recall what few I can. For the one I think was in novigrad (or somewhere around there at least) she was a contract. I think the redanian military had men going missing or something. Later you find them piled up somewhere if I'm not mistaken with claw marks on their backs. Afterwards you find and confront the succubus who tells you she killed them in self defense. Now judging from the "claw marks" on their backs its clear in hindsight she was careless and drained the life energy from all of them. However I forgot that detail and let her live. Should have went for the dang succubus mutagen I was never able to obtain. The second one you meet during a sidequest on skellige. I can't remember the details but you track down her lair, a cave, with a man who I don't remember to well and confront her. When you get there she has a man with her who's basically her loverboy. She was sending him out to look for indigo flowers if I call correctly. Anyway apparently she had been sleeping with men in the area but she didn't like most of them and if I recall correctly she just left them dazed and confused and sent them on their way. However she let the aforementioned loverboy stay because he was nice and she liked him. So she didn't actually hurt anybody. Now it's at this point the dude you went there with is having none of it and doesn't believe her so he wants to slay her and here you make the choice of who to side with. Of course I sided with the succubus and afterwards she doesn't seem super grateful and treats geralt as if he only saved her to get in her proverbial pants. She also comments only ow she doesn't sleep with witchers because they smell like blood and its nasty. If I remember right your actual reason for tracking her down is to get a flower or something But I don't remember anything beyond that. Anyway hope this jogs your memory.
@@dorianrobinette9712 she killed them in novigrad because while she agreed to sleep with them, she didnt agree to a group event and when she said so, they tried to force it. So she panicked and killed them.
So what you're saying is that Sirens are responsible for the loss of vast quantities of Sea-men...
Bruh
Yes in both meanings of the word ha ha ha!
supernova582 ha ha awesome you got the joke!
@@fergalkidd91 haha awesome you're an asshole!
@@HKIHNDKNSI but do they devour sea-men ass whole?
"I'll survive long enough for a real woman to sap the life from me instead" well said.
That line made me die of laughter, and he did it in his usual monotone voice so it was just brutal.
I literally died laughing...
The line "As I'm not sure any witcher would be skilled enough to take down knuckles in a 1-on-1 fight" delivered in such a serious manner had me dying
he put some respec on his name
When I think monster I think of a evil human
The Spirit is Willing, but The Flesh is Spongy and Bruised ... Death by SNU SNU!
I never expected to die this way, but I always hoped...
Fembot has spoken
Can’t we just cuddle?

You’re no fembot! You’re a femputor!
Ah yes, we all watched this for the... lore reasons.
yes , exactly ... lore reasons
I needed to... study
For... science.
Fuck science, I came for the TITTAYS
So glad Fudgemuppet finally covered Succubus they add a lot to the lore
"the crucial below deck apparatus"
It had taken me a solid minute to find out what that means and when I did I just laughed hard.
Cure4Living there’s a way comrades
I vividly remember my first encounter with sirens. It was when you first get to Skellige, I remember seeing them on a rock before they took off and I was just thinking ‘wait are those women?’ And a second later all I could think was ‘OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK!’
Same for me. I really felt what those sailors felt xD
More like OH YEAHhhhh!
The cunning placement of Geralt thumbs up on the close up shot of a Siren made me 😂
Oh yes your doing witcher video's again these are my favorite
Yeah!
I’m loving the humor in your more recent stuff. I think it’s even funnier because you deliver so dryly. 😂
"Nothing makes Geralt say "damn your ugly" more LMAO
"And as your eyes slowly get used to the darkness, you begin to realise it's not all that different from the light, for the real monsters hide in plain sight. I know, because I'm one of them..."
What’s dat o.0
"I'm not sure any witcher will be skilled enough to take down Knuckles in a one to one fight."
Damn straight #hedon'tchuckle
Bro, his quick quips actually destroy me!
"Im not sure any witcher would be skilled enough to take down Knuckles in a one on one fight" - 6:32
"...a bit of a deal breaker so I'll survive long enough for a real woman to sap the life from me" - 13:30
"I'll just wait for a normal woman to sap my life energy." Your dry humor had me cracking up.
I like how men back in the day described Thot's XD
You get a like for that closing statement, lmao.
You get a like for the Futurama reference alone. That made me laugh. Death by Snu Snu indeed.
Same here
The succubus in The Witcher shares a fair bit of attributes with a stereotypical satyr.
Satyrs are male; nymphs are their female counterparts, attributed with perfect beauty and endless libido (hence why female/male sex addicts were given the name nymphomaniac/satyromaniac respectively). But yes; succubi of Witcher lore appear to be more like that of nymphs than their usually more demonic archetypal attributes.

@@soleo2783 It is indeed..
Nymphs are forest spirits. Different from Goat men lol
we still have something to use as content in witcher 3
My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glitter and gold, there is nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor bold.
This came to mind for me.
Amazing work as always! Would love to see a lore video on the Wild Hunt!

A youtuber who devoted his channel for the great witcher, the white wolf ,Geralt
..i salute u sir for ur splendid work
"Spongy and bruised" I had to laugh at that part
Finally a witcher lore video. I've waited so long for this.
Quality again as ever the vids on this channel are
More witcher lore, hell yes. Made my day Drew.
the spirit is willing but the flesh is spongy and bruised🤣🤣👌👌😢
Hahaha, the last 20 seconds of commentary was gold.
This is going to my spank bank
More like wank bank
I would try to befriend a Doppler in the Witcher universe. They're very misunderstood creatures from the beastiary entries.
The problem with that is you won't know, if the person is one, unless they tell you and transform infront of you.
I know that, but I'm talking about in general here. As an avrage Joe you won't know, that your neighbour isn't a doppler, unless they transform right in front of your eyes.
Hecate was the Greek goddess of magic guys. And they weirdly mixed the succubus with satyrs in the Witcher.😅
Michael Molzan Demons are frequently depicted with goat legs, and succubi are a type of demon. Hence them seemingly being given traits of a saytr.
@@AzureGreatheart I know that and I get that. Some demons were depicted like that to look like the satyrs who were know for their wild revelry.

I rather love the witchers depiction of the succubus. Though now I'm wondering what they look like in warcraft as I've never seen much of that.
@@dorianrobinette9712 Pretty much just like the witcher version minus the fur on the legs, but with horns, wings and a fondness for whips.
Ok but THE SCREENSHOTS ARE BEAUTIFUL
Not gonna lie I wouldn't mind dying whilst doing the horizontal rumba with a succubus
quite the way to go tbh
That closing though. Lmao, awesome
This was brilliant!
Awesome Drew.
You are back!!!!
Had to pause for minute after that Knuckles comment. Was not expecting that from this video.
what Geralt doesn't want to hear: knock knock it's knuckles
That parting statement, my man xD
I can't bring myself to kill any of the succubi in the game. Perhaps I'm just a sucker for horns
It would make more sense if the succubus leg hair be the same as her head hair.
“The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised”.....death by Snu Snu, “the death so nice the named it twice.”
How to avoid being lured in by sirens? I like to think of a sausage in a cheese grater, works like a charm...
would be so cool of you could do lore videos on all of the monsters and stuff from witcher
I enjoyed that futurama reference.
That Closing Statement 👌
Best video yet
Ekidnas in the Witcher are the "I will never pleasure myself with this fish" category.
That last line though XD
Please do a video on The Conjunction!! Please Please! And thank you!
Finally a video relevant to me!
Lol nice futurerama reference the succubus just wants snoo snoo
There are plenty of voyage's to embark on above deck.
Can you make a video about Johnny and Sarah the godlings? I liked the character but never understood what they really are
"I still would"
-The Despot 😂
I heard you mention nymphs, are we going to get a video or segment of a video on them?
nice vid
*Hears singing sirens*
Ok wheres the crossbow...
I heard that appointment with succubus is a good way to cure insomnia.
5:30 alternative sign Yarden
I've enjoyed the references.
Fortunately for me, I find furry goats legs and hooves a bit of a deal breaker. I'll survive long enough for a real woman to sap the life energy out of me instead
who needs a mythical when the natural one is far more effective
Succubi can alter their appearance
Not if you're from the middle east
I don't mind as they are, but any more would get weird
@City Watch Guard this is an neutral environment, please don't refrain from talking about ur fetishes
Some of the lines in this are hilarious
i love cutting them in half lol
The Succubus at 12:15, where is that one? I've spent over five hundred hours in this game but I've never seen that one before
Ok now I need you to read the entirety of the Illiad and the Odyssey please. Thank you
Dude nice Futurama reference!
Finaly witcher content😍
Yay! Diversity in content. I hope this kind of stuff is doing well for you with how shifty Bethesda's been . You deserve a breather, and im enjoying hearing something from you i dont here as often
13:05+ Did he just quote zaft brannigan? 🤣
I willing to risk it with a succubus, the ones I've met in the games so far dont seem to dangerous
A thicc S U C C.
1:25 Oh Shit! They tuck the mans nose.
When seamen see the comely maidens 😂
“Fortunately for me I find goats legs and horns a deal breaker”
I instantly pictured Skeletor, *HA! Jokes on you I’m into that sh!t*
It does make sense to lure the males of a species with the mirage of a possible mate, animals like spiders and beetles mimic the female moths' pheromones and the female fireflies' light communication.
The reason the hybrids use "Beauty Lure", because men are an easy target for sexual arousal aka. bring horny
i’ve grown up saying udisseus but fudge muppet out here saying udeeeseeus
Nice futurama refrance
Love the Futurama reference.. "Death by Snu-Snu"!!
Looking forward to seeing these in the Netflix show. . . To see how well they use the special effects

Great video. Take a like. Wish I could give you an extra like for the Futurama reference.
Perfect! 😎👌
Spectral Enemies in Skyrim. The draugrs, the warhounds. is there any lore about them?
i think i'll stick to the monster musume versions, thanks
The "Succubi" look a lot like Satyr's from Greek mythology
When will your next Skyrim build be uploaded or will you ever upload another skyrim build
With all this resurgence of the Witcher 3 and Witcher series in general I was hoping you'd do another Witcher lore video, and you delivered. I hope there is more to come, great video.

What are the names of the 2 paintings from 3:15 to 3:30 please ?
Lol those tails doe.....
