There is that mission in Skeelige, where you have to talk to a troll, werewolf, Doppler and that funny little creature, and convince them you are only dangerous to the dangerous monsters.
@Miles Matheson Geralt's not a man though. He's a witcher. A mutant. A man-made monster. There's a reason humans fear and hate witchers. I mean, who wouldn't fear them? Witchers were designed and made to be emotionless killing machines. I mean think of that story Lambert says where some people attacked him and he used Axii to make a man shoot his own friend with a crossbow, we know Lambert was acting in self defense hell, if you play the game you probably did the same thing multiple times without giving it a second thought but to an outsider that would seem absolutely horrifying, being forced to kill your own friends is kind of fucked up. In a sense the inhuman nature of Witchers not really feeling any emotions fits how players usually don't give a shit about NPC characters especially enemies. Its a situation where you feel for Witchers because you see their perspective, but most common people in the universe the stories are set in, would not see their perspective.
@@davidbodor1762 Well i think its just human idiotism. Srsly most attacks are from human to witcher not witcher to human. They cheat when they must pay you. They insults you. When i walk in Velen i feel bad for monsters because basic human life in Velen. One day beat wife next drunk himself. Some work mostly insulting people. Shit tones of bandits who made more destruction rapes and genocide than Nilfgaard and Redania armies combined. Games and books show us what's the point of killing monsters if the real monsters are just humans. The same way Geralt's words "But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all." we kill monsters and on their place comes more bloodlusty monsters. Humans. Mostly Witchers try to not get involved in human problems but who will stop group of bandits then? I can only tell that people from north try to find the cause of their problems not in themselves but in everything around them include witchers and nonhumans. Most people way of thinking "holy shet... Looks like raining... Damn you Geralt." or " winter comes earlier... Thats elves fault because eternal fire priests say so." human stipidity reaches level of autism that cant be even possible. I know they live outside the town and most of them can't even read and write but when you come to Novigrad is the same thing. Only diffrence i seen is on Nilfgaard territory. Sure people when see you say "damn you Nordling" but it's all. They didn't cause most problems. Games and books show us that "the heartless mutants" are more human and have more emotions than stupid human peasants. Edit: sorry for my grammar.
@@ペムペム It took me almost two months of continuous playing to almost finish it with all the DLCs (and I barely explored something). I'm simply in love with the game and I don't think I will find another game as good as this one for some years now.

“People," Geralt turned his head, "like to invent monsters and monstrosities. Then they seem less monstrous themselves. When they get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman, when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottages at daybreak is more monstrous than they are. They feel better then. They find it easier to live.” This fits perfectly within the songs theme.
It's from the last wish book. Just finished that chapter today. The chapter was about a devil and the elves clashing with geralt and Dandy@@Rainbow_Dash_of_Cloudsdale

Just like what our parents used to sing us about monsters when we were kids to make us sleep but from a monster perspective, brilliant, and her voice is close to perfection.
I have only seen the trailers after playing the actual game. When he said he will come back for her I didn't read much into it. After the game I saw the trailer and as soon as I saw her singing the same song and Geralt appearing behind her I screamed: "I will come back for you one day!!!!"
Trailer was made years before the actual DLC. She obviously wouldn't turn into a basic Bruxa or Alp of she was a boss in the game and she certainly wouldn't be killed with a crossbow bolt. Actually, she wouldn't be killed at all unless Geralt has Regis on speed dial.
@@lobstrosity7163 the developers have stated that this is in fact orianna and that she's actually a very powerful bruxa but not a higher vamp, you can look it up on the wiki
+Robert Koh Witchers aren't very popular among humans either, could just be a normal lullaby that reflects the general opinion that they're freaks who kill for gold.
Sardonicous1 That's very true. I often forget how much of pariahs they are. But it's not surprising. Sometimes you get Witchers like Geralt, and sometimes you get ones that demand your children if you have nothing to pay them with. Although I suspect that practice died with the Trial of the Grasses.
+Robert Koh You have wrong idea about the surprise law. They don't demand children if you have no gold. Even more - Witchers CAN NOT work for free, because they are forbidden to do so by their code, but they also CAN NOT ask for anything else but the gold. There is only one exception possible for them. IF, and ONLY IF they save someone and that someone says that the witcher can ask for ANYTHING then witcher can ask for two things ONLY - usually gold OR something of your possession that you have but you don't know it yet. This is called Law of surprise. It CAN happen to be a child, but doesn't really have to. But when it does then there is destiny at work, and no one and nothing can stop it. That's why people hate it so much and fear it. This also is why they prefer to pay with gold than gamble with destiny and potentially loose a child.
i got sentimental a lot of times on playing the witcher 3... it is the most truthful game i've ever played... its almost like reading a storybook... where YOU are the architect of its story, no other game gave me such feeling, they are all truly masterpiece talented!
How Netflix ruined their adaptation with so much amazing source material is mind blowing. Im in the last chapter of "The Tower of Swallows" and ive beaten all three games, iven even beaten 3 several times one of those times 100% the game. Between books, games, and the amazing promotional material for the games like this, Netflix should have hit a home run that would have made Game of Thrones look lame.
Wolves asleep amidst the trees Bats all a-swaying in the breeze But one soul lies anxious, wide awake Fearing no manner of Ghouls, Hags and Wraiths For your dolly, polly sleep has flown Don't dare, let her tremble alone For the Witcher, heartless cold, paid in coin of gold He comes, he'll go, leave naught behind but heartache and woe Birds are silent for the night Cows turn in as daylight dies But one soul lies anxious wide awake Fearing no manner of Ghouls, Hags and Wraiths My dear dolly, polly shut your eyes Lie still, lie silent utter no cries As the Witcher, brave and bold, paid in coin of gold He'll chop and slice you, cut and dice you, eat you up whole. Eat you whole.
I don't really know, I shamelessly copy/pasted the lyrics. But this version appeared pretty much everywhere, and since I'm not an English native speaker, I assumed they were the correct lyrics.
I wish there were more games like this in general. The portraying of nature itself (trees bowing in wind, setting sun) is mind-blowing, one and only minus is that the storyline is little predictable if you read the books, the characters are perfectly dubbed, the graphics beautiful, monster fighting quite challenging on higher difficulties, lore is amazingly thought out and completely fitting. MORE LIKE THIS ! Bethesda and EA should cover heads in shame.
When I saw the new main menu once I installed Blood and Wine, I just had to sit there and squeal into my fist for a few minutes. Because I was so amazed and nerding out that they brought the whole thing so far back around to their goddamn pre-rendered launch trailer that turned out to have actual story value to the game and FUCKING HELL, THE FOLK AT CDPR ARE GENIUSES!
its more like a secret that lets us know what happens after the blood and wine and it shows us that the ending where ciri dies does not mean that geralt dies
Nope its actualy humans singing it to their kids. "For the witcher, heartless, cold Paid in coin of gold He comes he'll go leave naught behind But heartache and woe Deep, deep woe" It means the Witcher's greedy and heartless, if you think of how witchers are paid, there's 2 ways. Money or a child. Basically the witchers steal kids, that's how they're made back when the practice was still in use. That's why only heartache and woe is left behind they take the money they take the kids. In the trailer Geralt says "Haven't heard it in a while" because its centuries old, its from an era where Witchers were hated even mroe than they are in the present years of the Witcher series, since the Wolf school doesn't practice those traditions anymore, they don't make any new Witchers and don't take any kids.
@@davidbodor1762 as a poor, helpless peasant child I would've loved to be a Witcher, death is certain anyway, I mean long live, total immunity to diseases plus superhuman abilities?....where can I sign up?
+Lord Danika If you read the books, the witchers were not meant to be 'the good guys' - they did their job just for money - they didnt care more or less about the person they were helping - i recommend you the books - their situation is nicely described.
+NIKO Actually, I feel like they were the good guys (the wolf school at least). But people start to belive they are heartless mutants, because of a fear of the unknown and the publications defamatory to witchers. And that is also a reason of the attack on the Kaer Morhen.
+Lord Danika Geralt is quite complicated character, theres a vid about he save a woman from being hang, kill his "customers", so i can see witchers are more like " i do what i like" type
I love this so much because I feel it highlights the aspect of Geralt, and all witchers, that most people forget about. Because he's the protagonist, a lot of time is spent highlighting his positive attributes. He's honorable, kind and brave, yet we forget the only quality the monsters see in him. He's terrifying. Imagine living in secrecy as a monster your whole life, hearing nothing but stories of how ruthless and merciless witchers are towards monsters only to one day hear something clad in armor blow down your door with his fucking mind. Imagine throwing everything you have at him and no matter how scarred and disfigured it leaves him he just keeps walking towards you with a sword made of blinding silver. Every tool and weapon he has is designed to kill you and it *hurts*. Silver burns more than anything else for monsters, dimeritium stripping you of power would feel like losing a part of yourself and he employs these without discretion. Sure, most monsters are only slightly more intelligent than animals, and are more akin to creatures of prey, but witchers still hunt beings like Bruxa and other vampires. They'll hunt evil dopplers, they'll hunt trolls just trying to survive and nine times out of ten it's not out of the good of their heart, it's for a reward. What happens when a witcher doesn't get their reward? Well, as demonstrated many times in the books, the contractor should pray that they'll still be able to walk the next day. Witchers are monsters, which is precisely why they're the only thing that can hunt monsters. This duality in their character, especially with the more sympathetic ones like Geralt and Vesemir, is precisely what makes them such interesting characters.
I think one main point of whole Witcher series. Books and games both is what makes humans and monsters different. And sometimes that the thing lies under the surface. There are humans behaving worse than monster and monsters like Regis capable of compassion and decency. Even main protagonist being unhuman mutant is actually so much more human and decent than a lot of normal people he comes across. Even in books Geralt refused to kill dragons for example no matter the money or the time where he went to great pains to lift striga curse almost dying in the process instead of just plain killing it.

My 1,5 years old daughter literally giggle before closing her eyes to sleep when I play this song (the kids voice version).. I felt like O'Dimm was behind my back for a moment lol
What's really awesome about this is it's a true spin on everything we know: traditional lullabies and fairy tales were aimed at comforting or warning human children about bad behavior or things that may hurt them. But here, it is the product of humanity that goes bump in the night and that is used as a boogey man for the monsters. Or to manipulate human children...
Noah Hallstrom after thinking a while i remaind of this one ! Also for curiosity here in Brazil we have a lullaby called "Cuca Vem Pegar". Wich it's about a witch who is going to catch your baby when he's asleep and other creepy monsters like english's babadook .xD thank you for your suggestion !
Kronos camron In the books and in past games, it's explained that each new race brought in through the Conjunction of Spheres, has had similar relationships. It's just that humans are the new kids on the block, and this has led to an alliance among Elves, Dwarves, etc. who have warred and terrorized one another in the past.
The lullaby was not made by monsters. Humans too fear witchers, and they see witchers as monsters too, or at the very least, as abominations. The vampire here was only singing a song made by humans to mock the witcher and remind him that humans will never accept him no matter what he does for them. For sometimes, humans are the real monsters.
@@Burning_Alive and I know a lot of fans who don't like the Netflix series. The series is so.....out of place. It wanted to be GOT when the witcher isn't that. It's so weird and so....mediocre looking. It's as if the writers just made a few researches on the subject and didn't even read the books. Moral of the story: it's an individually entertaining show but on the most part it's differs completely with the rest of the franchise.
Loyal Servant I don’t really care about your opinions on the show, that doesn’t have anything to do with what I said, if you don’t like it you don’t like it. All I said was that plenty of Witcher fans enjoyed it, me included. Sure there are some oddballs that never played the games or read the books and watched the show but for the most part if you played the games and read the books that’s why you watched the show and the show has plenty of fans. And sure it’s not the best recreation of the books but neither is the game so I don’t know what your point is.
Wolves asleep amidst the trees Bats all aswayin' in the breeze But one soul lies anxious, wide awake Fearin' no manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths For your dolly, polly sleep has flown Don't dare let her tremble alone For the witcher heartless cold, paid in coin of gold He comes, he'll go, leave naught behind but heartache and woe Deep deep woe Birds are silent for the night Cows turn in as daylight dies But one soul lies anxious, wide awake Fearin' no manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths My dear dolly, polly shut your eyes Lie still, lie silent, utter no cries 'Cause the witcher brave and bold, paid in coin of gold He'll chop and slice you, gut and dice you, eat you up whole!
How does a child lay anxious, wide awake trembling with her dolly, too scared to even be alone, and also fear no manner of ghouls, Hags, and wraiths? you're missing the point of the lullaby, it's about how Witchers are the boogeyman to monsters, Higher Vampires sing it to their children, it's not about how badass Witchers are it is about how Witchers are evil and will come and kill and eat you (from a vampire childs perspective).
The lullaby was not made by monsters. Humans too fear witchers, and they see witchers as monsters too, or at the very least, as abominations. The vampire here was only singing a song made by humans to mock the witcher and remind him that humans will never accept him no matter what he does for them. For sometimes, humans are the real monsters.
I like how this song basically flips the tables. This is very much the type of song that humans would sing to their children about monsters. The fact that it's a song that monsters sing to their children about humans, painting witchers as boogie men, really fits with the Witcher's theme of who are the real monsters in the story.

After watching the series grow more and more popular over the years, I finally decided to start my Witcher journey some 6 months ago, from the 1st game. Played the 2nd as well and just finished Witcher 3, and theres only one thing to be said: HOLY SHIT WHAT A RIDE, BRAVO!!!!
I love the way she sings "chop" and then "slice"; very onomatopoeic imo none of the covers come close to this. It's so simple/unadorned (like a lullaby) yet chilling at the same time
I don't know why, but the rhythm with which she sings "Fearing no manner of ghouls, hags, and wraiths" is my favorite part of this song, and that one line has been forever stuck in my head since I downloaded the Blood and Wine DLC.
@@milesmatheson1142 "Hehehe I'm so geeky AND I'm a dad Haha arent I cool" This man should be out teaching his son to fish, or ride a bike, or hunt, or practice archery, or tossing around the pigskin, or camping, or working on a car or literally anything other than this beta shit.
Wolves asleep amidst the trees Bats all a swaying in the breeze But one soul lies anxious wide awake Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths For your dolly Polly sleep has flown Don't dare let her tremble alone For the witcher, heartless, cold Paid in coin of gold He comes he'll go leave naught behind But heartache and woe Deep, deep woe Birds are silent for the night Cows turned in as daylight dies But one soul lies anxious wide awake Fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths My dear dolly Polly shut your eyes Lie still, lie silent, utter no cries As the witcher, brave and bold Paid in coin of gold He'll chop and slice you Cut and dice you Eat you up whole Eat you whole
Seven or so years ago. My daughter who is 13 now. Heard me listen to this. She loved it. The first night she ask me to sing to this to her. Every night up until she got to about 11 I sang it to her every night. She is too old for her daddy to sing her a lullaby. Unless she is stressed or having a bad day. Every once in awhile. I still sing it for her. It helps her. A month ago I had a vary bad day. I was sitting in the living room in a mood. She came and sit next to me on the couch. Sang me this song. And my mood was just better. It’s like our song. One day I’m sure she will sing it for her kids when she tucks them in.
The thing about Witchers is that they are as fragile as a normal human, yet they still struck enough fear into the hearts of monsters for this song to be made and spread
I have been playing The Witcher 3 for nearly 3 years now and i'm in love with the lore and the characterization. I've been burning and cutting swathes through armies of Elite City Guards and Nilfgaardian Soldiers like there's no tomorrow. This song is so epic that i've decided to translate it to my native language, Hebrew. זאבים ישנים בינות עצים , עטלפים ברוח נעים , רק אדם אחד אורב וער, מפי אימת מכשפות ושדים . הו בובתך, שנתה עפה , אל תתני לה לרעוד לבדה . כי המכשף, קר ואכזר , שולם לו ב- יְקָר, הוא יבוא, הוא ילך , ולא דבר בעזבו חוץ מצער וכאב ... צער וכאב... ציפורים שקטות להם בליל , פרות חוזרות לאור כוכבים , רק אדם אחד אורב וער , מפי אימת מכשפות ושדים . הו בובתי, את עינייך עיצמי, שיכבי בשקט ואל תבכי , כי המכשף, אמיץ ועז, שולם לו בזהב , הוא יקצוץ, יקצור , יחתוך, יגזור , יאכל אתכם... בפה גדול ... בפה גדול...
Huh, it kinda works in Hebrew too, the rhythm is different but the lyrics still kinda make sense (which usually doesn't happen when translating from English to Hebrew)
Wolves asleep amidst the trees, Bats all aswayin' in the breeze, But one soul lies anxious, wide awake, Fearin' all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths For your dolly, polly sleep has flown, Don't dare let her tremble alone. For the witcher Heartless cold, Paid in coin of gold, He comes, he'll go, Leave naught behind But heartache alone. Dee dee ohh. Birds are silent for the night, Cows turned in as daylight dies, But one soul lies anxious wide awake, Fearin' all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths. My dear dolly, polly shut your eyes, Lie still, lie silent until no cries. As the witcher Brave and bold, Paid in coin of gold. He'll chop and slice you, Gut and dice you, Eat you up whole. Eat you whole.
+Stefan S +Stefan S Hmm thank you for that info. I haven't started that Skellige most wanted quest yet since it was bugged from what I heard (It's supposedly fixed now with the latest 1.11 patch thankfully) Another clue is look at the city Geralt is riding off towards in the morning of 'A Night to Remember'. It's not the same city you see at night from the looks of it (At night it appears like Novigrad, might be wrong though, day time it looks like a completely diff. location). Low and behold, the official image for BaW is Geralt heading off towards that city, which I'd bet anything is Beauclair - "the largest and the capital city and the palace in Toussaint, built by elves, and later slightly modified and extended by the people, the palace reworked the famous Faramond. It is said that Beauclair is an enchanted city where everyone falls in love and does not want to leave." Here is the image I'm referring to: www.gamepur.com/files/images/2015/the-witcher-3-blood-and-wine-artwork.jpg More info on Toussaint (For those interested) - 'Toussaint is a duchy within Nilfgaard famous for its wines, enabled by the volcanic soil. This mountainous place is ruled by Anna Henrietta. Toussaint has no army of its own, nor a police force, just a small number of knights-errant watching the borders and roads, though their attention is said to be keen. Tradition is a holy thing in Toussaint, so all holidays are keenly observed.Interestingly, the Nilfgaardian Empire does not tend to impose itself in the affairs of Toussaint and for the most part does not violate its borders.' - witcher.gamepedia.com/Toussaint
+Stefan S +Fallout Wanderer 2077 Werewolf from "Skellige Most Wanted" said that Geralt killed Bruxa from "A Grain of Truth" short story. It has nothing to do with Toussaint.
Everyone's saying that this is a lullaby for monsters but taking into consideration how people in the Witcher universe treat witchers I think it's entirely possible that it's/it was a legit lullaby there. Witchers are considered unnatural, freaks, monsters themselves by the vast majority of the common folk.
People also don't take into account that many lullabies from the area that The Witcher is based on are stories that tell children to shut up and sleep or they will die. So it makes perfect sense to use witchers to scare kinds into falling asleep in that universe.
I was talking about a prequel quest you can find in Blood and Wine expansion, the bruxa has a part in a story and etc. but it´s before the events from A night to remember trailer,therefore prequel
I still haven't gotten over the fact that the trailer for The Witcher 3 takes place AFTER the final dlc, even having a character from that dlc in it... That's mindblowing to me lol
Am the only one who first played the game and got hella bored, but then the more I played, the more I began to enjoy it and it slowly became one of my most favorite games of all time.

When they get blind-drunk, cheat, steal, beat their wives, starve an old woman, when they kill a trapped fox with an axe or riddle the last existing unicorn with arrows, they like to think that the Bane entering cottages at daybreak is more monstrous than they are.

This fits perfectly within the songs theme.
Thats from the books or the games?
@@ricardoalves9605 its from the books. I dont remember which one, tho
@@pedropereiramoraes2173
I think it's from the Edge of the World short story, from the Last Wish book. Or, perhaps, the Last Wish short story.
It's from the last wish book. Just finished that chapter today. The chapter was about a devil and the elves clashing with geralt and Dandy@@Rainbow_Dash_of_Cloudsdale

Video games are the pinnacle of art's evolution! They combine music, visuals, poetry, writing and so much more!
Except the fighting mechanics and movement sucks

Not the pinnacle, but the merging of certain aspects of it. They are art for sure though.
Totally agree!
There is no pinnacle in eternity

As we say in spanish when someone is really good at something "¡Eres un crack!"
Just like what our parents used to sing us about monsters when we were kids to make us sleep but from a monster perspective, brilliant, and her voice is close to perfection.
Like the rest of the game, her performance is perfection
the Witcher is what she fears ;D
exactly
"Mummy, wots a witcher?"
"a monster sweetie, now go to bed, or he'll cut you up with silver and eat you whole!"

both are for monsters
When Geralt said "I'll come back for you one day". I got chills as I recalled "A Night to Remember" trailer. Did anyone feel the same?
I have only seen the trailers after playing the actual game. When he said he will come back for her I didn't read much into it. After the game I saw the trailer and as soon as I saw her singing the same song and Geralt appearing behind her I screamed: "I will come back for you one day!!!!"
yes me too
Wait...so...is the trailer basically after the whole blood and wine dlc then?
Trailer was made years before the actual DLC. She obviously wouldn't turn into a basic Bruxa or Alp of she was a boss in the game and she certainly wouldn't be killed with a crossbow bolt. Actually, she wouldn't be killed at all unless Geralt has Regis on speed dial.
@@lobstrosity7163 the developers have stated that this is in fact orianna and that she's actually a very powerful bruxa but not a higher vamp, you can look it up on the wiki
So this is essentially a lullaby monsters sing to their children, right?
+Robert Koh Witchers aren't very popular among humans either, could just be a normal lullaby that reflects the general opinion that they're freaks who kill for gold.
Sardonicous1
That's very true. I often forget how much of pariahs they are. But it's not surprising. Sometimes you get Witchers like Geralt, and sometimes you get ones that demand your children if you have nothing to pay them with. Although I suspect that practice died with the Trial of the Grasses.
+Robert Koh You have wrong idea about the surprise law. They don't demand children if you have no gold. Even more - Witchers CAN NOT work for free, because they are forbidden to do so by their code, but they also CAN NOT ask for anything else but the gold. There is only one exception possible for them. IF, and ONLY IF they save someone and that someone says that the witcher can ask for ANYTHING then witcher can ask for two things ONLY - usually gold OR something of your possession that you have but you don't know it yet. This is called Law of surprise. It CAN happen to be a child, but doesn't really have to. But when it does then there is destiny at work, and no one and nothing can stop it. That's why people hate it so much and fear it. This also is why they prefer to pay with gold than gamble with destiny and potentially loose a child.
+Robert Koh The law of surprise didn't die with the Trial of the Grasses not to mention that Geralt has invoked the law multiple times
Yeah shit, I get it, I don't know my Witcher lore too well. You guys got me.
i got sentimental a lot of times on playing the witcher 3... it is the most truthful game i've ever played... its almost like reading a storybook... where YOU are the architect of its story, no other game gave me such feeling, they are all truly masterpiece talented!
You should try Disco Elysium
True!
How Netflix ruined their adaptation with so much amazing source material is mind blowing. Im in the last chapter of "The Tower of Swallows" and ive beaten all three games, iven even beaten 3 several times one of those times 100% the game. Between books, games, and the amazing promotional material for the games like this, Netflix should have hit a home run that would have made Game of Thrones look lame.

Fearing no manner of Ghouls, Hags and Wraiths

I don't really know, I shamelessly copy/pasted the lyrics.
But this version appeared pretty much everywhere, and since I'm not an English native speaker, I assumed they were the correct lyrics.
A lullaby for monsters. I wish there were more songs like it.
Numunu1 the concept by itself is great, add the ambietation the game adds and you have a masterpiece.
I wish there were more games like this in general. The portraying of nature itself (trees bowing in wind, setting sun) is mind-blowing, one and only minus is that the storyline is little predictable if you read the books, the characters are perfectly dubbed, the graphics beautiful, monster fighting quite challenging on higher difficulties, lore is amazingly thought out and completely fitting. MORE LIKE THIS ! Bethesda and EA should cover heads in shame.
Devy jones them
No, it's lullaby for humans. Orianna just uses it to troll Geralt.
When I saw the new main menu once I installed Blood and Wine, I just had to sit there and squeal into my fist for a few minutes. Because I was so amazed and nerding out that they brought the whole thing so far back around to their goddamn pre-rendered launch trailer that turned out to have actual story value to the game and FUCKING HELL, THE FOLK AT CDPR ARE GENIUSES!
Ikr
its more like a secret that lets us know what happens after the blood and wine and it shows us that the ending where ciri dies does not mean that geralt dies
ikr???!! same here, dude, extremely nerding out
yeah they show everyone else now how to make a game and dlcs without milking every single coin out of people
this aged well didn't it ? /s
the game has many quests that left me heartbroken. I bought this game for my best mate's birthday and he thanked me from time to time...
The song mama monsters sing to their babies for them to behave
Behave must be a pretty flexible term in the monster world
Wyatt Long Eat their supper discreetly it means
Nope its actualy humans singing it to their kids.
"For the witcher, heartless, cold
Paid in coin of gold
He comes he'll go leave naught behind
But heartache and woe
Deep, deep woe"
It means the Witcher's greedy and heartless, if you think of how witchers are paid, there's 2 ways. Money or a child. Basically the witchers steal kids, that's how they're made back when the practice was still in use. That's why only heartache and woe is left behind they take the money they take the kids. In the trailer Geralt says "Haven't heard it in a while" because its centuries old, its from an era where Witchers were hated even mroe than they are in the present years of the Witcher series, since the Wolf school doesn't practice those traditions anymore, they don't make any new Witchers and don't take any kids.
@@davidbodor1762 as a poor, helpless peasant child I would've loved to be a Witcher, death is certain anyway, I mean long live, total immunity to diseases plus superhuman abilities?....where can I sign up?
@@navidsoleimani2848 Yeah but 7 out of 10 children die in the process of becoming a witcher...
what makes this so cool to me. The witcher is the good guy, but this song makes him sound like a demon lol
+Lord Danika If you read the books, the witchers were not meant to be 'the good guys' - they did their job just for money - they didnt care more or less about the person they were helping - i recommend you the books - their situation is nicely described.
+NIKO Actually, I feel like they were the good guys (the wolf school at least). But people start to belive they are heartless mutants, because of a fear of the unknown and the publications defamatory to witchers. And that is also a reason of the attack on the Kaer Morhen.
+Lord Danika This setting is full with prejudices. Simple folk paid witchers for dirty work, but that doesn't mean, that they liked or trusted them.
+Lord Danika Well it's the song that monsters sing to their little kids. A song of bougiemen about the bogieman called Witcher
+Lord Danika Geralt is quite complicated character, theres a vid about he save a woman from being hang, kill his "customers", so i can see witchers are more like " i do what i like" type
fuckin' bruxas...
shes an Alp
This is why you just died.
+Andre Potgieter remind me what the differences are?
Speed, number of attacks and health. also small physical appearance changes. kinda like a ghoul and an alghoul
Actually, she is a Bruxa, as Alps cannot turn invisible, and as she doesn't have the red markings of an Alp.
I love this so much because I feel it highlights the aspect of Geralt, and all witchers, that most people forget about. Because he's the protagonist, a lot of time is spent highlighting his positive attributes. He's honorable, kind and brave, yet we forget the only quality the monsters see in him. He's terrifying. Imagine living in secrecy as a monster your whole life, hearing nothing but stories of how ruthless and merciless witchers are towards monsters only to one day hear something clad in armor blow down your door with his fucking mind. Imagine throwing everything you have at him and no matter how scarred and disfigured it leaves him he just keeps walking towards you with a sword made of blinding silver. Every tool and weapon he has is designed to kill you and it *hurts*. Silver burns more than anything else for monsters, dimeritium stripping you of power would feel like losing a part of yourself and he employs these without discretion.
Sure, most monsters are only slightly more intelligent than animals, and are more akin to creatures of prey, but witchers still hunt beings like Bruxa and other vampires. They'll hunt evil dopplers, they'll hunt trolls just trying to survive and nine times out of ten it's not out of the good of their heart, it's for a reward. What happens when a witcher doesn't get their reward? Well, as demonstrated many times in the books, the contractor should pray that they'll still be able to walk the next day.
Witchers are monsters, which is precisely why they're the only thing that can hunt monsters. This duality in their character, especially with the more sympathetic ones like Geralt and Vesemir, is precisely what makes them such interesting characters.
Wow, never thought of it that way.
I think one main point of whole Witcher series. Books and games both is what makes humans and monsters different. And sometimes that the thing lies under the surface. There are humans behaving worse than monster and monsters like Regis capable of compassion and decency. Even main protagonist being unhuman mutant is actually so much more human and decent than a lot of normal people he comes across.
Even in books Geralt refused to kill dragons for example no matter the money or the time where he went to great pains to lift striga curse almost dying in the process instead of just plain killing it.

Just one correction. It should be "Fearing NO manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths".
Not "birds are silent for the night", instead "it`s a silent fall of the night".
The only comment with the correct lyrics
"Nice tune. Been a while since I heard it last.""People have forgotten it.""Bitch please. People ain't ever forgetting me."
lmao you got me man
👍
You made my day
Somebody make this quote canon.
here's 1,000 crowns
The Witcher gives monsters a sense of humanity , why i love the series so much.
My 1,5 years old daughter literally giggle before closing her eyes to sleep when I play this song (the kids voice version).. I felt like O'Dimm was behind my back for a moment lol
It has been an honor to play this game.
What's really awesome about this is it's a true spin on everything we know: traditional lullabies and fairy tales were aimed at comforting or warning human children about bad behavior or things that may hurt them. But here, it is the product of humanity that goes bump in the night and that is used as a boogey man for the monsters. Or to manipulate human children...
amazingly thought ! actually do you guys know any song like this .. creepy lullabies?
Erica Nascimento. some of the different renditions of ring around the rosie are pretty messed up
Noah Hallstrom after thinking a while i remaind of this one ! Also for curiosity here in Brazil we have a lullaby called "Cuca Vem Pegar". Wich it's about a witch who is going to catch your baby when he's asleep and other creepy monsters like english's babadook .xD thank you for your suggestion !
Also that humans in this game are hateful and prejudiced. eternal fire, radovid, people of velen...etc
while elves,halflings,dwarves are tolerant.
Kronos camron In the books and in past games, it's explained that each new race brought in through the Conjunction of Spheres, has had similar relationships. It's just that humans are the new kids on the block, and this has led to an alliance among Elves, Dwarves, etc. who have warred and terrorized one another in the past.
Imagine to be so badass that the monsters have scary bed songs about you
The lullaby was not made by monsters. Humans too fear witchers, and they see witchers as monsters too, or at the very least, as abominations.
The vampire here was only singing a song made by humans to mock the witcher and remind him that humans will never accept him no matter what he does for them.
For sometimes, humans are the real monsters.
The Witcher Netflix fans could never know the true masterpiece
You know a lot of Witcher fans like the games books, and the Netflix series right? It’s great and for the most part it fits in
@@Burning_Alive and I know a lot of fans who don't like the Netflix series.
The series is so.....out of place. It wanted to be GOT when the witcher isn't that. It's so weird and so....mediocre looking. It's as if the writers just made a few researches on the subject and didn't even read the books.
Moral of the story: it's an individually entertaining show but on the most part it's differs completely with the rest of the franchise.
Loyal Servant I don’t really care about your opinions on the show, that doesn’t have anything to do with what I said, if you don’t like it you don’t like it. All I said was that plenty of Witcher fans enjoyed it, me included. Sure there are some oddballs that never played the games or read the books and watched the show but for the most part if you played the games and read the books that’s why you watched the show and the show has plenty of fans. And sure it’s not the best recreation of the books but neither is the game so I don’t know what your point is.
@@Burning_Alive still doesn't change the fact that it sucked balls 🤡

THANK YOU
How does a child lay anxious, wide awake trembling with her dolly, too scared to even be alone, and also fear no manner of ghouls, Hags, and wraiths? you're missing the point of the lullaby, it's about how Witchers are the boogeyman to monsters, Higher Vampires sing it to their children, it's not about how badass Witchers are it is about how Witchers are evil and will come and kill and eat you (from a vampire childs perspective).
I mean seriously. How much of a badass do you have to be, to have the monsters make a song about you.
The lullaby was not made by monsters. Humans too fear witchers, and they see witchers as monsters too, or at the very least, as abominations.

I like how this song basically flips the tables. This is very much the type of song that humans would sing to their children about monsters. The fact that it's a song that monsters sing to their children about humans, painting witchers as boogie men, really fits with the Witcher's theme of who are the real monsters in the story.
Zdecydowałam się napisać polską wersję, bo angielskiej się już nauczyłam na pamięć: Wilk już zajął swe leże

A ty nie możesz, zajęta trwogą
Bo Wiedźmin

Przybędzie weń
Wyrżnie wszystko w pień
Nic nie zostanie zeń
Nawet cień
Pieśń ptaków w nocy zamilkła
Po sobie łby kładą bydła
Tylko ty jedna nie zaśniesz dziś
Wiedźmy, potwory nie pozwolą ci
Laleczko moja, śpij kochanie
Bo zdradzi cię każde szemranie
I Wiedźmin
Żądny krwi
Główkę utnie ci
Twą piękną główkę,
Rączkę, nóżkę
Wszystek cię zje

Toss a Coin to your Witcher might be a masterpiece but let's not forget this exists
Don't actually understand why people like that song
I genuinely wanted The Lullaby of Woe to be the opening theme with watery fading pictures. THE WITCHER appears right after the "Deep Deep Woe" part.
I'll drink a Kaedwenian ale to that 🍺
@@pRick7734 Because "Toss a coin blabla" is a good Pop Song and "Pop Music" is made to please as much as possible people.
While something like that here, has meaning - The Pop Song is just made to make you "happy".

I first read "lullaby of hoe"
Orianna from blood and wine i recognized her as soon as she came out in the game
i finished the expansion, but still, this is a spoiler
how is it a spoiler ?
in the game, you know right away that she is a vampire
the trailer only shows that you kill her eventually
Two things for a 3 months old reply.
1. We don't know that she's a Vampire right away, Regis tolds about that later.
2. Spoiler was that comment not the trailer I guess.
Actually it was fairly obvious that she was a vampire from her interactions with Regis
jhnsnow421 Ah, so it was also obvious that Svanna was also a vampire, where she was not.
Bruxa does the scream thing mid fight

I loved this game so much that I purchased it again for the PC even though I already have the console version
same bruv,own it on ps4 and pc
Exactly what I did as well :D
I've bought it two times for PC. First for GOG and later for Steam. :D
I actually think about doing this aswell :D
can you import the save-files from the GOG version to the Steam version? so I can play Death March new game plus on steam?
You can. You don't even have to copy them to another folder. My Steam version recognizes my GOG version saves without a problem
I love how CD Projekt Red planned everything. A game company who knows how to do that is amazing in my opinion.
Ah yes, LULLABY. I’ll be sleeping to this one tonight. Almost am right now. Very calming. Totally not shiver inducing… heheh

I think that "no" actually makes more sense here, since I think this part of the song describes the witcher rather than the child.
Thank you ! 😀
It's "All manner of ghouls etc..." not "No manner". Also, it's cut and not gut.
After watching the series grow more and more popular over the years, I finally decided to start my Witcher journey some 6 months ago, from the 1st game. Played the 2nd as well and just finished Witcher 3, and theres only one thing to be said: HOLY SHIT WHAT A RIDE, BRAVO!!!!
I love the way she sings "chop" and then "slice"; very onomatopoeic
imo none of the covers come close to this. It's so simple/unadorned (like a lullaby) yet chilling at the same time
People: Toss a coin to your witcher
Me: BUT ONE SOUL LIES ANXIOUS WIDE AWAKE

The game was a masterpiece. It makes you travel to another world.
I don't know why, but the rhythm with which she sings "Fearing no manner of ghouls, hags, and wraiths" is my favorite part of this song, and that one line has been forever stuck in my head since I downloaded the Blood and Wine DLC.
This gives me intense chills

Seven or so years ago. My daughter who is 13 now. Heard me listen to this. She loved it. The first night she ask me to sing to this to her. Every night up until she got to about 11 I sang it to her every night. She is too old for her daddy to sing her a lullaby. Unless she is stressed or having a bad day. Every once in awhile. I still sing it for her. It helps her. A month ago I had a vary bad day. I was sitting in the living room in a mood. She came and sit next to me on the couch. Sang me this song. And my mood was just better. It’s like our song. One day I’m sure she will sing it for her kids when she tucks them in.
ohhhhh thats sweat ❤❤❤

It's 2019 and i still return to this world just because no other game amazed me as the witcher 3.
can't stop myself frm listening this over and over again.. ahh.. damn this lullaby ❤
"a night to remember"
LOL
Reminds me of my favorite quest from Skyrim.
Agh, memories, memories....
reminds me of LOTR.... "ah... this will be a night to remember!"
Greatest game of all-time, Zelda BOTW is great but doesn't hold a candle to this.
FatBox Lol, all time? I don't even think it's the best this gen and invest it 4 times. Breath of the Wild is better imo for one it has fun gameplay.
@@Invincible-Under-the-Sun hell no
Handsome Guy we get it, your wife’s boyfriend gave you a Switch. We know.
The music, character, and voice fit this perfectly. It sends chills down my spine holy
One of the best Tracks from the witcher
I have been playing The Witcher 3 for nearly 3 years now and i'm in love with the lore and the characterization. I've been burning and cutting swathes through armies of Elite City Guards and Nilfgaardian Soldiers like there's no tomorrow. This song is so epic that i've decided to translate it to my native language, Hebrew.
זאבים ישנים בינות עצים
,
עטלפים ברוח נעים
,
רק אדם אחד אורב וער,
מפי אימת מכשפות ושדים
.
הו בובתך, שנתה עפה
,
אל תתני לה לרעוד לבדה
.
כי המכשף, קר ואכזר
,
שולם לו ב- יְקָר,
הוא יבוא, הוא ילך
,
ולא דבר בעזבו
חוץ מצער וכאב
...
צער וכאב...
ציפורים שקטות להם בליל
,
פרות חוזרות לאור כוכבים
,
רק אדם אחד אורב וער
,
מפי אימת מכשפות ושדים
.
הו בובתי, את עינייך עיצמי,
שיכבי בשקט ואל תבכי
,
כי המכשף, אמיץ ועז,
שולם לו בזהב
,
הוא יקצוץ, יקצור
,
יחתוך, יגזור
,
יאכל אתכם... בפה גדול
...
בפה גדול...
Huh, it kinda works in Hebrew too, the rhythm is different but the lyrics still kinda make sense (which usually doesn't happen when translating from English to Hebrew)
@@alonsan3977 Thanks for the reply :)
*throws money at screen*CD projekt red*u guys are the best.
toss a coin to your developers
Wolves asleep amidst the trees, Bats all aswayin' in the breeze, But one soul lies anxious, wide awake, Fearin' all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths
For your dolly, polly sleep has flown, Don't dare let her tremble alone.
For the witcher Heartless cold, Paid in coin of gold, He comes, he'll go, Leave naught behind But heartache alone. Dee dee ohh.
Birds are silent for the night, Cows turned in as daylight dies, But one soul lies anxious wide awake, Fearin' all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths.
My dear dolly, polly shut your eyes, Lie still, lie silent until no cries.
As the witcher Brave and bold, Paid in coin of gold. He'll chop and slice you, Gut and dice you, Eat you up whole. Eat you whole.
_DEE DEE OHH_
I'm fucking dying lmao
It's "deep, deep woe" btw
Dee dee oh lmao
Witcher music is just something else...it s perfect
Final Fantasy 6 is my all-time favorite game and has been for decades, but The Witcher 3 was the first time I ever had to reconsider.
fits perfectly to first episode of season 2
Need to play through this again
wish this made into the game..
ehem guees what you will fight in blood and wine expansion a bruxa
if you remeber what the werewolf from most wanted quest said he killed a bruxa from tussain the game will be take you there in blood and wine
+Stefan S +Stefan S Hmm thank you for that info. I haven't started that Skellige most wanted quest yet since it was bugged from what I heard (It's supposedly fixed now with the latest 1.11 patch thankfully)
Another clue is look at the city Geralt is riding off towards in the morning of 'A Night to Remember'. It's not the same city you see at night from the looks of it (At night it appears like Novigrad, might be wrong though, day time it looks like a completely diff. location).
Low and behold, the official image for BaW is Geralt heading off towards that city, which I'd bet anything is Beauclair - "the largest and the capital city and the palace in Toussaint, built by elves, and later slightly modified and extended by the people, the palace reworked the famous Faramond. It is said that Beauclair is an enchanted city where everyone falls in love and does not want to leave." Here is the image I'm referring to: www.gamepur.com/files/images/2015/the-witcher-3-blood-and-wine-artwork.jpg
More info on Toussaint (For those interested) -
'Toussaint is a duchy within Nilfgaard famous for its wines, enabled by the volcanic soil. This mountainous place is ruled by Anna Henrietta.
Toussaint has no army of its own, nor a police force, just a small number of knights-errant watching the borders and roads, though their attention is said to be keen. Tradition is a holy thing in Toussaint, so all holidays are keenly observed.Interestingly, the Nilfgaardian Empire does not tend to impose itself in the affairs of Toussaint and for the most part does not violate its borders.' - witcher.gamepedia.com/Toussaint
+Stefan S +Fallout Wanderer 2077
Werewolf from "Skellige Most Wanted" said that Geralt killed Bruxa from "A Grain of Truth" short story. It has nothing to do with Toussaint.
+Thunder Trailer than my bad still they said that it will be a bruxa
When my brother was a baby he wouldnt ever sleep unless we sang/played this for him. He'd sleep so soundly when we did as well
I love all the song. In middle of the nigth earing again and again. . .
Everyone's saying that this is a lullaby for monsters but taking into consideration how people in the Witcher universe treat witchers I think it's entirely possible that it's/it was a legit lullaby there. Witchers are considered unnatural, freaks, monsters themselves by the vast majority of the common folk.
Of course they are viewed as bad people, they don't care about anything but money most of the time.
People also don't take into account that many lullabies from the area that The Witcher is based on are stories that tell children to shut up and sleep or they will die. So it makes perfect sense to use witchers to scare kinds into falling asleep in that universe.
when vampires go to sleep, they check under their beds and closets for Geralt of Rivia
Geralt of Rivia : "few rounds of Gwent?"
Devs absolutely killed it in Blood and Wine expansion with this bruxa prequel story...shh ;)
bruxa epilogue*
I was talking about a prequel quest you can find in Blood and Wine expansion, the bruxa has a part in a story and etc. but it´s before the events from A night to remember trailer,therefore prequel
VojtaTube Umm thats Orianna from the dlc, you know that right?
Yeah, exactly I was talking about. Its a prequel quest, therefore prequel story to the night to remember trailer :D
VojtaTube OHH, i rather address it as the epilogue to Blood and Wine
I still haven't gotten over the fact that the trailer for The Witcher 3 takes place AFTER the final dlc, even having a character from that dlc in it... That's mindblowing to me lol
things amazing listenin to it since 3 years
Am the only one who first played the game and got hella bored, but then the more I played, the more I began to enjoy it and it slowly became one of my most favorite games of all time.
No
Yup. It was the White Orchard music for me. I started missing it once I stopped played, come back and that was the beginning of a long journey
Same here. The music and the scenery did it for me.
No Witcher would accept the contract for any amount of coin
Except lvl 1 Garalt of Rivia
Blood and Wine for the win!
elder scrolls 6?
nope
