The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - The Witcher 3 has a fascinating method of accounting for player choice. The vast majority of the time, every possible outcome is accounted for in one way or another. That isn't always the case though, as The Witcher 3 in particular disregards a handful of major choices players might have made in Geralt's past. That isn't necessarily a problem, but it's interesting to take a look at where CDPR has done this in the past, and think about how it may affect the future.

I like to think of the games as Dandelion's telling of events. Sometimes embellished or outright incorrect.
Love this. I've just been telling myself not to think about it too hard, but your way is better.
might be the sole reason they picked him as the narrator
This seems pretty likely, and I have thought the same thing because if you've noticed along with some of the narration, the journal entries are written in third person rather than Geralt writing about himself. It seems like there may be more specific examples, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. Disregarding Shani going from Witcher 1 to 2 still makes me pretty unhappy even though I actually really like Triss in 2 and 3. For the record, I rather despised Triss in Witcher 1. I would be interested to hear thoughts on whether you think the shift in Triss's character was natural. I do find such a shift rather interesting, and now I have to think about how such character development fits with Triss from the books (that I also need to re-read, lol).
Because IT IS, all the written text in the three games is written from his point of view
@@nopin7 You are correct, same with Cyberpunk, all journal entries are written by Jackie Welles. Honestly, his funeral mission flavour text confused tf outta me at first 😂
Thaler was such a fun character, I wish he received more attention. Would've been fun if he gave you a minor quest that would involve more dialogue with him.
He also dated Shani in the first game, which is… uh, interesting.
@@NeonKnight 🙃
@@NeonKnight
Because Shani has good taste, duh! 😂
A ploughin good character
Iorveth is another characther I miss, should have showed up like Roche in W3. Shame the Remastered edition won't add any story content to fix those loopholes, they'll just add character reskins of that horrible woke Netflix show.
Yen is justifiably upset Geralt slept with her good friend Triss, despite his memory loss. However, I should think she'd be much more angry at Triss. After all, Triss's memory was intact when she decided to have relations with Geralt.
If anyone should be upset with Triss it's Geralt. She essentially sexually abused a disabled person by taking advantage of his compromised state.
But in the storyline I believe Yennifer was thought to be dead during the events of the previous Witcher games.
@@LonewolfOfSD, I didn't know that.
Yen should be the last one upset for cheating as she cucked Geralt and her mage boyfriend for years behind their backs before she decided to reveal it to them because she couldn't decide who she loves more.
@@LonewolfOfSD Even if, Triss was there when Geralt died and Ciri took Geralt and Yen away. So, if she found out Geralt is alive, she must've definetly thought that there's a chance Yennefer is alive as well
Wish we had Iorveth in W3, such an amazing character
I feel like we only ever scratched the surface of Iorveth, like they were hinting at further exploration of his character in W3 (I forget the dialogue, but I seem to remember if you find him in the epilogue all burnt half to hell there’s a line something like “he’s still got battles left to fight” or whatever)
Plus, the whole thing about Vergen isn’t a possible permanent home for him, implying we’ll meet him on the road in W3. Personally, I would have loved to see some scenario where Roche and Iorveth are working together on Radovid’s assassination.
Do you have any idea who is replying to your comment right now? It's the FUNNIEST MAN ALIVE! Me funny (!!!) vids are so extremely funny, if you don't cry tears of laughter, you are allowed to thumb down me XTREMELY FUNNY vids! Do you think me funny (!!!) vids are funny, dear ruo
Indeed Iorveth is another characther I miss, should have showed up like Roche in W3. Shame the Remastered edition won't add any story content to fix those loopholes, they'll just add character reskins of that horrible woke Netflix show, they missed a chance to make W3 even more masterful! I mean didn't Vergen or Aedirn get conquered by Niflgaard, Iorveth fleeing to Velen or Oxenfurt outskirts would have made sense!
@@Frencho9 dude stop spamming
I hope witcher 3 gets a director cut cause devs already stated that iorverth was originallly a part of w3 storyline but he was cut out later on then the whole final act was rushed due to budget originally wild hunt was supposed to attack novigrad.
Did you hear about the note you can find in oxenfurt academy? In W2 there's a little side quest in flotsam to take a mysterious potion from a couple of scholars, apparently if you port that save over to W3 a note appears on one of the benches in the oxenfurt academy which is the follow up log from the scholars. It's revealed that the idea behind the potion was to cure sterility, and that's why geralt is the perfect candidate for the experiment which is one of the lines they say in W2.
and fortunately that potion didn't work and its creators are dead before they could do more damages XD
@@efaristi9737 We don't know that, since the only woman that can get pregnant that Geralt has been with is Shani
@@MattBG67 and what about the various prostitutes and occasionnal tryst?
@@MattBG67 and depending on your decisions in the heart of stone DLC whether you sleep with Shani it could be interesting to have the witcher 4 be set in the future with the main character being Geralt's kid
@@dandrake8788 I don't think they sterilezed witchers to stop them from having kids just because they're witcher universe mages therefore sadistic and crazy, And I sincerely believe that Sapkowski never thought of it as anything more than "oh look that guy can't even have kids and ooh his girlfriend can't either this is sad get sad now ok?"
But, considering all the mutations that witchers have, their little swimmer would probably not be able to impregnate someone at all, or the child could be born horrifically mutated, or turn out to be a a monster(I'm being literal).
if witcher 4 takes place after witcher 3 i hope we can see our decisions and consequences
That would be interesting tbh
@@NeonKnight Especially that and future of Northern Kingdoms
A nod would be nice but Witcher 3 is intentionally open ended and for a reason.
I doubt it because then cdpr would have to chose a canon ending
they would need to basically make several different games, as a Witcher based in a continent rules by Nilfgaard would be vastly different to one ruled by Dijkstra and that would be different from one ruled by Radowid...and Nilfgaard ruled by Ciri would be different than one ruled by Emhyr.
so you basically need to make 4 versions of the game to account for these endings. not gonna happen.
There’s a lot of comments about Iorveth so I’ll just say he was supposed to be in The Witcher 3 and the writers had a whole subplot planned for him revolving around the Scoia’tael and the Nilfgaardian army base at the bottom of the map.
Unfortunately it was cut due to time constraints and the devs didn’t want to just throw him in the game with nothing to do so they cut him out completely.
The lead quest designer said if they could’ve done one more thing before release it would’ve been the Iorveth subplot.
It's such a shame, i would have loved to see more of the Scoia'tael, they were literally a big part of the first two games :/
and they really couldn't just make a patch for it when they finished it or hell even make a DLC out of it? it shouldn't be that hard. especially if it's a subplot, then it probably wouldn't hurt the main story much, right?
@@lonewolf1928 well apparently, it wasn't on the budget XD
i really can't believe a franchise as big as Witcher "not being on the budget"
@@lonewolf1928 Well, you know how it is, there's always an excuse for things people don't feel like doing, for example how some shows start with lots of episodes and have a big success but then they don't get another season for years and when they finally do, it's only half of the episodes you got the first time, even though the franchise has done nothing but gone up in popularity.
While Roche's endings being thrown away is painful, my headcanon is that he just does whatever is best for Temeria at the moment. W2 Radovid is actually not that bad, you have Foltest's daughter being prepared to be queen with Roche protecting her and Natalis being around, so they could keep Radovid relatively in check and work something for Temeria, but now, in W3 that he went nuts and Nilgaard is at the door, there is no way Radovid can be left alive if you think about Temeria's future
Radovid has tendency to betray his allies once they're no longer of use. It's perfectly reasonable to assume Roche saw it coming, which is why he took his men inna forest, away from Redanian command, before they all end up like The Order of the Flaming Rose.
I love how the kiddo still dances goofing around on top of Thaler's body like it's just another day in the medieval era.
Mass Effect also has a few things like this (although it is generally much better at acknowledging decisions in previous games). I think the problem is that they need to know in advance what information to save in order to keep it in the next games, and it's easy to miss things.
That and, of course, that fact that some changes (like killing Thaler for example) would have too much of an impact to be allowed to happen
It takes a lot of work for games to be made
Pretty sure since the 1st game was a PC exclusive game, decisions from the first game would've been different since people might have say, well example whether or not you love Yen. or love triss. And the actions you taken wouldn't have been acknowledged.
@@BanishedSilentShadow3318 Think its fair to say that they also went for a more mainstream big budget broad approach to Witcher 3. Because of this they probably wanted to simplify some things for new players
Mass Effect even had to delete plot points, decision due script, time or simply they abandoned a certain topic to focus others. It's really difficult to create a game like that because some decisions can create plot holes or repercussions that are way more bigger to be handle in one game.
In Mass Effect one of the most famous points is the "Dark Energy plot" presented in Mass Effect 2, the idea was to settle the argument for Mass Effect 3 around that but due development things that idea was ignored and the story went in another course but the plot is still there, with an amusing amount of theories and argumental implications that could've.
Might be a controversial opinion, but I do wish we'd have gotten Upper Aediern/Vergen instead of Skellige in the Witcher 3. That would mean we would have been able to interact with Saskia and Iorveth and (crucially) would have given some relevance to the Stennis and Henselt choices in W2.
Iorveth had a whole subplot planned in W3 to do with the massive Nilfgaardian camp at the bottom of the map but it was cut out for lack of time and instead of just throwing Iorveth in the game with nothing to do they decided to cut him completely.
I hope Witcher 3 complete edition will add in in cut content that could have had a place in the original
is there such version planned?
@@d.n5287 highly doubt it
I doubt they are still in Aedirn since the comics of CDP state that Iorveth and his Scoia'taels have left before Nilfgaard invasion, then Saskia had to reveal she was a dragon and had to leave and Nilfgaard invaded Vergen and burned down what was left of her dreams.
I played The Witcher 1 and 2 multiple times before the third and often wondered about these things, especially ignoring Thaler's possible death.
Since I think the Witcher 4 is going be a totally new character with their own journey I think the one way i think a Witcher 3 save can be imported to the next game is with the three endings
The worst ending would decide if there's a Geralt and Ciri cameo
The Ciri Witcher ending would decide whether she is a Witcher that is talked about in the world
And the last but not least the Empress ending where we could potentially meet our queen Ciri or read of her rule in the books
But that depends if the next game takes place in time after TW3, which doesn't seems likely, because there are very less Witchers and monsters left. So my guess is that we will go back in time in next game.
@@Adanu191 That's so true and yes RIP whoever wants to go against our girl Ciri
@@GamerInside270 yeah I getchu
@@GamerInside270 It could still be a sequel to Witcher 3. Both the games and spin-off stories from the creator himself give examples of how. Wild Hunt ended with another Conjunction of Spheres the event that teleports monsters into the world. The short stories from the author have New Witcher Schools being created and some old ones resurging in popularity because of the Continent entering a colonial age exploring outside it's border to new lands filled with monsters on land and in the sea just a couple centuries later.
CDPR can follow both of these up. Which makes sense with this New School of the Lynx to actually be new. If it's hundreds of years later too that is enough room in the timeline passing that none of the choices of 3 have major impact so they can tell whatever story they want. If Nilfgaard won the North regained independence a century later, If Radovid won doesn't matter a long dead dynasty the North created a new status quo, If Dijkstra won that was the point that the North would transform into something new.
Why would it be a new character? Might be a new protagonist if they switch to Ciri but it would make no sense to design an entirely new character as Witcher schools stopped producing new Witchers.
I would actually really enjoy a mini series of certain evens from the Witcher 2 that just aren’t brought up in the Witcher 3.
Also throughly enjoying the content, it’s such high quality and I appreciate how much time and energy you put into each video, keep up the great work!
There is another funny instance in Hearts of Stone where you can "simulate" a Witcher 1 decision to either kill Siegfried or let him live, regardless of your choice in W1. I know the player has a choice here, but still funny how it doesn't carry over and gives you the choice a second time. I suppose it goes for the Order of the Flaming Rose as well, that their fate is doomed no matter what choice you make in W1.
The thing with Thaler is pretty easy to get around. The issue with Adda is a big problem, though. They probably should've had some kind of explanation.
I played the games in order and was kind of annoyed that they completely disregarded the Shani romance since the books add a whole new wrinkle to the Triss relationship.
actually in the witcher 2 there is a throw away line at least when i last played in a little while ago from foltest say adda died. but he dosent mention how she died
You really have a nice channel pal. It's nice to hear someone talk with so much passion about this series, wich is also my favorite book and games series. Keep it up
Great video!
I also really loved all the Thaler dialouge and cutscenes in TW1
Man. I thank you so much for mentioning Witcher 1 and 2. Because many players didnt even play it. I played it many times and i feel sorry for people who didnt even try the game but only judging by some videos. BIG THANKS ❤️. I instantly Subscribed
I’m torn, because on the one hand it would be nice to get even just a single line of dialogue to reference some of these things (especially Adda, given she’s also from the books and it would be nice to know how things turned out for her). On the other hand, as a longtime Dragon Age fan, I’m well aware of how hollow some callbacks can feel, particularly once you have the weight of three games-worth of decisions to wrestle with. It feels like something of a damned if you do, dammed if you don’t situation.
Also, describing Roche in Redanian gear as “one of the weirdest things you’ll ever see” is hilarious. And true, of course.
As someone who played Witcher 1 and 2 before Witcher 3, I was annoyed at how much they ignore Iorveth and Saskia in 3. I personally chose the Iorveth path when I played Witcher 2, but it seems like CDPR wants the Roache path to be the canon choice.
Well given that Roache's reacts identically in W3 whatever W2 path you took, the only practical difference actually favours the Iorveth path, it can save you 200 crowns in a quest without using Axii
Iorveth was supposed to be in W3 and they had a whole subplot planned for him revolving around the massive Nilfgaardian base but unfortunately they didn’t have enough time to develop it and they didn’t want to just throw him in with nothing to do so they cut him completely.
@@trickycm1040 hope they add him back in for the Enhanced Edition then. He was my favorite character in Witcher 2.
My usual comment to support your channel. You are doing a great job. I wish you inspiration.
Wow, that is very intriguing indeed. Thank you for making the effort to show us.
There is also a major inconsistency between The Witcher 1 and 2/3. Radovid wouldn't need Anais, an illegitimate younger daughter of Foltest, when he is married to Adda, an older (albeit still illegitimate) daughter of Foltest. The argument is that 'Temerians will never accept a Redanian on the throne', but wouldn't Anais be also seen as a Redanian pawn if she is controlled by Radovid?
this bothered me sooooo much in the Witcher 2 and NO ONE is talking about it, so thank you for this comment!
Damn! I always wondered how the hell they didn't realise Thaler can die in the first game! Such an interesting video as always, really enjoy all the content you upload!!
Wow man! Awesome video. Detailed research and points! 😊
Really love this type of video. Especially the references to Witcher 1. I think that game is really underrated and is still fun to play
I've been enjoying alot of your content lately, I randomly remembered I hadn't done a NG+ of the Witcher 3 so I dove back in and now I'm hyped for the 4th and seeing stuff like this is so nice and interesting
I'm really glad you started this channel, there's so much stuff to discover in The Witcher that it's nice to have someone break it down
Awesome video! I love the effort you’re putting into your content. I think you’ll be at 50, then 100k in no time!
Great video, and it is very well put together, which is not something you usually see from a "small" creator im sure you will get to 100k soon
Dude i love these videos you make, I even wait till dinners ready to eat while watching. Hot food and a neon knight video the best duo...
Great work! Love your videos and appreciate your effort! 😁
Awesome video. Thank you
Love your videos man, keep it going
I love that the games reference each other, but it would be interesting if those decisions had more of an impact. They probably don't because then one decision would have to be taken as canon over the other(s). Such an interesting video. I'd love to see more
Excellent thought provoking video
Another awesome video!!
Great video. It would be fascinating to see materials about W1 and W2, there games are amazing. Please consider making "10 things you missed in Flotsam" or so;) keep up great work!
This was a great video. Just locked in even more I want to play witcher 2 soon 😍 Great edits as always neon
Really interesting, I completely forgot Thaler can die in the Witcher 1. But I knew Triss' and Geralt's relationship did not always fit with the quotes in the witcher 3. I am excited about your next video, well done;)
I need more witcher vid like this, it's fun to watch
Great videao as always!
Great video man, very interesting
I agree with you with the hole Saskia thing, I really wanted to see more of her, she was an interesting character
Quite a creative video idea like. Enjoyed a lot!
You nailed the Roche one i was wondering since i chose that option in Witcher 2 why Roche stopped working for Radovid
Very interesting. Tks for this vid.
You should have a look at the stand alone Gwent as it really expands and builds on the post and pre-Witcher 3 world it’s actually quite fun seeing how new expansions expand the lore of the Witcher world even further. Anyway great video as always!
You know how many characters from earlier games either appear in later games or are mentioned in some way, but I can think of a character that is never ever mentioned: Yaevinn. Canonically, he must be dead, but why no mention at all?
Also, thank you for the video, enjoying every single one you're making!
Yeah clearly CDPR is biased against the Scoiatal. Both leaders in the games are null and void after theirs no matter what. Turned them into just bandits in 3.
I could swear i saw somewhere that your romance status affected the inventory item icon for the rose of rememberance (if you had active romance with triss it was blooming but if you stoped it it was withered tho dialogue always mentions it being dry. That would mean it has at least a little part in the code. However i was unable to find the video mentioning it so i am not 100% sure anymore.
I'm watching this in August 2023; the next game is not out yet and you 111k subscribers, so congratulations. You have done very well. Thank you for the informative and interesting videos on The Witcher. I really love The Witcher 3.
I think Yen is hypocritical. Everyone around him knew about her. They didn't tell him. And he thought she was dead after he did remember. Triss took advantage. Everyone basically lied to him. But that's just my take.
Most Witcher fans will be here for pretty much any Witcher content.. if you wanna make a video just go for it... we'll definitely be here for it regardless
Aha, now I want to replay W3. Thanks!
I would’ve loved if the choices had bigger impact over the course of the trilogy, something similar to mass effect.
This is actually a complex issue to address and CDPR has handled it well, but not perfect imo.
Firstly, our decisions HAVE to have consequences, otherwise everything we decide is just meaningless. But, with the many consequences and narratives possible in Witcher games (which i think are a big part of what makes the games as great as they are and are really, really good) it's obviously impossible to account for all possible choices in a follow-up game. Therefore, they have to decide on a canon path that Geralt took, which they do to some degree and i think is quite appropriate.
What i really dislike, is when they skirt around a topic, like Radovid's wife for example. They absolutely need to pick a storyline and stick with it and account for player decisions as often as they can. Just not mentioning it at all, just makes the initial decision meaningless, as if you did nothing at all, which i think is the worst way to go in this.
Amazing channel.
I've never played the Witcher 1 but I find the stoic models hilarious
Excellent video. I remember being mind blown by Witcher 2 after a few playthroughs. The various branching choices completely changing the middle and end events. This was long before 3 was even confirmed and I just thought holy shit, they're setting it up so much for a follow-up game, finding Yen etc. How in the hell are you going to compensate for all the endings which massively affect all the kingdoms' power and influence. Thought it was impossible to account for, or consolidate the open threads but they did it really well. So I will forgive a few of the more 'out there' uncharacteristic ending options bring scrapped.
Even the choices from 1 to 2 had that issue, like Radovid's need to have Foltest's bastards, if you saved Ada, Foltest's death in 2 wouldn't be that much of a cluster fuck since Ada was a legit successor and Redania could have just swooped in. Also I sometimes encounter a bug/glitch were Sile is still alive in the dungeons even if you allow her to die in Witcher 2.
Foltest justify it by saying that the old nobles families of Temeria would never accept a redanian for king. And also, she was a monster that eat peoples... Twices, that doesn't help.
It would have been cool if you romance Triss in W3 the rose came alive again and you could give it back to her.
Very good choice with witcher 1 soundtrack in the background
Has some of the best acts
That video make me realise that I almost do every choice the game did for me anyway when i do the trilogy. That's why I never noticed these.
Very interesting video, thanks for it.
The saskia comic is basically for people who sided with saskia. If you did then it takes place after the ending of the game. It also hints at what happened in vergen as well. Apparently the fight didn't end well as saskia encountered not just soldiers but also a witch possibly frangilla vigo. She lost the fight and all the leadership of vergen was executed.
This reminds me of how in Mass Effect 2 Conrad Verner no matter what will treat Shepard like they used the renegade options with him in the first game, but that was a bug in the save system so Conrad will only act one way. So they made fun of this discrepancy in Mass Effect 3 by having Conrad apologize and be uncertain if Shepard ever assaulted him.
About mentioning Saskia. There's another quest in Witcher 3 where she's mentioned. If you spared her, then you can mention that as proof of you being a friend to monsters, in the quest where a werewolf, Doppler and troll conspire to kill you in Skellige
Only the Werewolf wanted to kill Geralt...The Doppler, Troll and Godling just wanted to scare/intimidate Geralt. Remember Godlings have the mind of a child and Dopplers are pacifistic. Trolls are just dumb sometimes dangerous sometimes drunk.
@@flamesofchaos13 You're not wrong, though I was just giving a general premise
@@inferknowingfrank I know but we Witchers need to record accurate descriptions for posterity if nothing else.
@@flamesofchaos13 quite right!
you re amazing!
I also really want more Saskia. You know what I think could be a fun video/discussion? Your pitch for if Ciri is the player character in Witcher 4, and how Saskia would be involved. (I'm thinking bare minimum a major side quest, and not a very brief appearance)
a very nice video, as always! thank you!
one thing we should think of in this matter is that series of the games that actively use gamers' choices to progress through the plot of the game *must* choose somewhat *true* ending so that they could make the next game. it automatically means giving up all other endings and mark all other choices as non-canon. witcher 3 had to give up some plotlines to tie everything together, leave behind some [/cough/ female] characters. so that's completely fine for me you can't have everything at one time. we got Shani and that's so much more than we could hope for.
another thing that I think about a lot is how f_cked up first witcher game was. and the second one was only slightly better if you think about it. I think cdpr just realized that first two games were very poorly made in comparison with the third game they were making so they left them behind hoping no-one will really remember them. and they bring out the events happened in the first (and second) game very rarely too as if they reeeeally wanted them to be long forgotten lmao. (and honestly witcher 1 wouldn't survive a day in the world we know today). also, the plotline doesn't seem to go anywhere good in these two games too while saving Ciri is always a win.
maybe it's even better for them to stay in the shadow, I don't want cdpr to be cancelled lmao.
so, yeah, I'm glad cdpr made their homework, learned from their mistakes and improved witcher series in every possible way to bring us witcher 3. I respect and love them for that.
2:30 i like how he puts his sword back on his back
Very interesting video!
The whole thing of not taking into a count some choices/finals of previous games could be a hint on how CDP RED works and may disprove the theory that alla Witcher 3 finals are true at ones, but with some weeks between one another
Honestly, after seeing tht theory and the announcement of a new Witcher game i was thinking tht they (CDP RED) could integrate the various finals and choices in the new hame by making canon this theory (tht all of the three finals are true at once), i mean tht would simply their writing work and would close some unsolved matters (like Weaves, the third Crone)
But!
Now i'm starting to doubt abt it, maybe they will choose one final, the one tht suits more the characters 🤔
I'm really going to need to play Witcher 1 and 2 one of these days 😤
if you take in consideration how Radovid acts in the third game, I don't suppose Roche's hypothetical betrayal would be unlikely. as he said: "my true colors are on my skin, that will never change" which could imply that when Radovid started acting awry he would just defect and start over with the Temerian Guerrila. would be great for it to be mentioned in dialogue though since it is not that ridiculous of a concept in my point of view.
Halfway through this and just noticed the music in the background is the same music in my current skyrim playthrough🤣
This video is now extra interesting to watch with a Witcher remake on the horizon. Wonder if they’ll change things to be consistent with Witcher 3.
11:43 Funny, I got that exact dialog without knowing it happens only when making such desicions in W2. Thank you for the insight! I played the whole trilogy and now I'm realizing a forgot most of the little thing
s there.
If you save Adda in TW1 and import the save in TW2, you can talk about the marriage of her and Radovid to Henselt, but there is a book telling the story of Adda's curse, saying that she died anyway
wow I didn't know about any of these!
You should definitely just do a video about all the saved game import stuff, I bet a lot of people aren’t aware of all the things that get acknowledged.
Legend has it that, to this day, Neon Knight is still scrolling down his manual saves list.
I think it is the logical conclusion to have a consistent story. I like that choices are offered but I think it can make future stories limited if taken to seriously.
the replay value on this game🔥🔥🔥
talking about 2nd: Triss was in Kear Morhen in the books, not only in games.
Man Evan 7 years later the Witcher III
@ 4K ultra quality Graphics + Story & Characters Still Captures me 🍷
Just last month I finally got around to playing W2 and was pleasantly surprised by how much I like it.
Afterwards I started replaying W3 and for some reason, I started noticing all the graffiti in Novigrad, I rarely see those discussed, maybe that's a topic for a future video
Oh wow, so I was actually right when I predicted in your community post that one of the things is probably about not sleeping with Triss in The Witcher (1)! =D
I guess you could summarise Roche's turn towards assassination as 6 months of living what it would be like under Radovid. I'm glad its not canon as helping him with Anais is but for those who chose to help Radovid in TW2 I'm thinking that Radovid's mental instability which is mentioned by Roche in the 3rd game is the kicker.
I've got to catch up on this franchise.😳
I played the games in order, but I didn't really care much for the series at all until I played Witcher 3. I never imported any saves but I doubt I would have remembered what I did in a previous game anyway. I only remembered some of the bigger stuff. The only other games I that I have played that import from previous games - Mass Effect and Dragon Age - also have a few instances where they retcon something that you've done (but not as much as in the Witcher series from the looks of it.)
The way shit is going you gonna have more then 1m sub when next witcher games come out ( its been a long while)
Roche betraying radovid after joining redania isn't that farfetched. Roche always held his ideals over his duty, I mean he freed you after the whole of temeria set their sights on you when foltest dies. In some of the flavour dialogue with Roche he says himself that he's an idealist, and that the only thing he really cares about, is a true and free temeria.
No one said the idea of him defecting was far-fetched.
What’s far-fetched is it never, ever being mentioned and Anais disappearing without a trace.
Now I'm going to do them even harder
I would like more 'decisions that didn't matter' videos
PLEASE make a video about the lesser known imported choices. The wiki has such a tiny list of differences that our choices actually make from TW2. I had no idea about the subtle dialogue changes in minor quests. Also things like the mage hiding in the morgue(?) who mentions the slaughter at Loc Muinne must be different depending on your choices.
It really bothers me that Roche flat out tells Geralt "I don't trust anyone, not even you" despite the fact that you could have sided with him, let him kill henselt, proceed to take the blame for said killing when Radovid asks, form such a strong bond with Roche and yet he still says that line regardless. It's choices like those that make chronological playthroughs so special, but unfortunately I prefer siding with Iorveth nowadays because it seems to flow into the third game much better (Despite always siding with Siegfried in the first game).
I played the games in order. Made infinitely more sense.

My fav'rite type of magic.
omg the little girl playfully stomping over ol'Thaler's corpse!!!
The only thing I regret with the Witcher 3 is Saskia/Iorveth's missing... They were so important in the second part...
And Saskia... What a character... Totally fell in love with her ten years ago, when I first played the Witcher 2👍🏿
I guess a lot of those things are due to consistency of the story and in consideration of the books too.
