You mean Gaunter O'dimm had confidence, that he is most powerful character when he walked in, - or that you assumed, with confidence, that he is most powerful character when he walked in? Genuine question to clear the air. (Six years your comment is. And I have a question.)
I love CDPR’s use of tiny details. The man Olgierd’s gang is executing is the guy they were actually celebrating when you arrive. And if you decide to not fight Olgierd, you learn it’s because he killed the lord of the manor, likely because he was excited to try out his new saber that was the cause of the celebration to begin with
I just noticed that Gaunter literally teleports out of the ether as Geralt walks past the tree. Another small hint that Gaunter is way more than he appears to be on the surface.
Here’s a theory; Olgierd was low key friends with Radovid some time ago since he was Redanian nobility, and somehow connected him with Gaunter. Radovid wished for tactical and strategic skills greater than any other, but it eventually cost him his mind.
Y'know, for a Satanic expy who impales people's brains via their eyeballs for the heinous crime of interrupting him, Gaunter's a pretty likeable fellow when he wants to be :3
Funny enough that poor bastard is probably still alive, need something bigger than a spoon through the eye to Kill if just inserted. If anything it will be a slow painful demise to infection.
@BONESAW IS READY I don't get the reference behind your name, but I'm guessing if you actually used a bonesaw for a little more than posturing you'd know that the hypothalamus and brainstem control the autonomic nervous system and other involuntary functions. The spoon was pushed through the eye and straight in to the back of the cranial cavity, very likely missing both of these areas. If lucky, the guy died a few minutes later from blood loss; otherwise it was probably from an infection later on. @Raven Wolf is right.
Because I didn't fight him, I felt more sympathetic towards his life choices and suffering he has been through. I chose to save him in the end because he didn't deserve to die. If I fought him, I wouldn't have known that the guy who was beheaded killed the landlord which is why he was punished. Saving a killer unknowingly to avoid further bloodshed would have been worse. I love this game.
Olgierd said that he knows that death is nothingness... but then again, he never experienced true death, did he? Gaunter made sure that he was stuck in a limbo at the most.
@@StarvingAndHunger Gaunter could probably be called a god. Not GOD, but a god. He’s definitely not of that world. He’s been likened to the kind of Eldritch gods from Lovecraftian fiction, which is to say he is absolutely the last person you would ever want to fuck with.
I agree with the foreshadowing observation although I don’t think Olgierd is that much of a morally compromised man, especially in the world of the Witcher and as far as moral standards go in the medieval world. Him making a pact with Satan also happened during the lowest point of his life (O’Dimm mentions Olgierd was living on the streets, wearing torn clothes and severely undernourished; no one in that state is in their right mind to make any life-impacting decisions ever) so I would chalk the root of the entire disaster to O’Dimm. He was the bad one for exploiting Olgierd and his situation, knowing that Olgierd will most likely accept his “help”.
After finishing this questline I was too terrified of master mirror to ask him for anything. Only for my buddy to tell me I missed out. Got to say that the Witcher 3 had really really good writing. Really wish there where more games with well written storylines.
lmao I was writing a fanfic about a character who was semi-immortal (Not aging and can't get diseases) and he was bored and lonely so he became a warrior so he could have a chance at finally dying. Then this DLC came out D:
I've watched this outcome 2 times and still didn't get it. Now I do. He is one of the band of ruffians at the start and he killed the manor owner. I thought he was the manor lord and that they had killed him and set the manor on fire (which is understandable seeing the daughter's reaction).
I'm kind of surprised Master Mirror didn't dickishly consider his request to fuck off and only work with him through his designated proxy one of the 3 requests.
While I don't think Geralt would interfere in an internal affair like that, fighting Olgierd is the much better scene. You go into it thinking this guy is being a massive idiot, especially when he says "Why not? I've never fought a Witcher before." He's acting so casually, like he's bored and this will spice up his day. What am idiot! ...then the fight starts. You realize he's not the idiot, you are. You never see anything close to his powers in the entire main game. He was right to treat it so casually. Plus, seeing him clapping with his head hanging off is obviously WAYYY more memorable than just seeing him impaled.
what i fucking find irritating is when i completed the contract i didnt get fucking paid and geralt totally forgot about it. Not I, though. Even was hoping for him to pay me for the contract even after i freed him from guanter
So all this time I was defending a moron who killed a defenseless man but then was too afraid to face the consequnces of his actions? fuck that. I'm still going to fight Olgierd, but only for the badass fighting scene.
I really hate Olgierd's attitude😒(despite under the heart of stone). He could told the details of monster. But no. He just said bring monster head to me. If he speaks truth, The Toad prince curse break. Geralt will not only got the rewards from king, but also play gwent with Ofier. 8:23. Because that Olgierd😡 , Ofier soliders, mage, Aedirn mercenary, thief guide are death.
Guys I am a little bit confused. I have just finished the game for my third time, however, I realised one thing... Why am I supposed to fulfill 3 wishes of Olgierd? I mean, shouldn't there be only one wish left, since he has already asked for immortality and restoring his wealth?
@@nikfaroukezra9280 Actually, when he asked for the second wish, "living like there's no tomorrow", gaunter gave it to him literally and gave him immortality so that he could live everyday like there's no tomorrow.

when gaunter odimm walks into shot, its with the confidence that he is the most powerful character in the game
I never really paid attention to that until i read your comment, but you're damn right!
He is.

More interesting when you fight him; he's tough, but you get a better introduction into his immortality.
But on the other hand you help murderer escape his punishment.
Joshbaggy well struck witcher, you win...But perhaps you'd care to tell me why you meddled in a matter not yours
its one of the hardest boss fight and only boss fight that is human in game.Shame it doesnt give any reward he was just hard to kill.
It was a pretty fuckin hard fight if you don't have active shield
@@DsgSleazy it is easy :D
Use Ard and dodge or counter attack
I love how the witcher introduces new stories and characters you've never heard about/cared for before and makes you so invested into them
+xLetalis You missed out on fighting Olgierd, it was an epic cut scene too.
+Luke Edwards I'll do it soon ;]
xLetalis u wont regret it, it is awesome.
At 10:48 Gaunter O'Dimm appears out of nowhere, just casually leaning against a tree
Gaunter O'Dimm should be a lawyer
He is.

He is also the one that harrasses the woman serving the wine and is the "daughter of the lord of the house"
@@porcus123 It's easy to jump to conclusions when you don't see the full picture.
He also tried to fuck his daughter which Olgierd told him to stop and leave her be and mind his manners
I just noticed that Gaunter literally teleports out of the ether as Geralt walks past the tree. Another small hint that Gaunter is way more than he appears to be on the surface.
Cuz he is lucifer

I learned to always ask more questions from trying to get the guy who screwed Pricilla up, in my ending I didn’t get the real killer.
You know I really like the voice of Ogird, and the way he speaks
I can relate
Olgierd said that he knows that death is nothingness... but then again, he never experienced true death, did he? Gaunter made sure that he was stuck in a limbo at the most.
and he is quite wrong anyway, in the witcher world souls, ghosts and gods actually exist, prooving that there is something beyond death
@@CatroiOz Gods?

The first time I saw Olgierd's - I was like "Hey that's Beckham"
I like this scene its great foreshadowing to the ending decision spare the morally compromised man or let him be consumed by the powers he invited

Interesting how Gaunter often holds his hands in the conspiratorial Illuminati diamond hand gesture.
best wingman, best adviser.... not that bad this Gaunter O Dimm
13:11 - When you realise you have work tomorrow...
0:04 Did you know that if you didn't fight the goon in the beginning of the quest this guy will say "The witcher with a stick up his arse" instead?
06:32 Poor Olgierd, for this face will be the last face you'll see in life.
CD Projekt Red both throwing Kant and Simone de Beauvoir in there?
They are certainly people of culture.
At first I thought he was a murderous bandit. On the second look at the dialogues, Olgierd was not that evil.
6:34 It's what separates Men from Monsters.
Same armor I tend to use during this expansion.
lmao I was writing a fanfic about a character who was semi-immortal (Not aging and can't get diseases) and he was bored and lonely so he became a warrior so he could have a chance at finally dying. Then this DLC came out D:
+Gregory Samson :) perhaps you can link it here
xLetalis I never finished it and I don't think I will because of this DLC. I think I'll re-write it into a higher vampire protagonist lol.
and now you've done blood and wine lol
hilarious :D
+Gregory Rivas can you write another one? Maybe we can get another expansion for witcher 3 :D
10:48 Odimm just......pop up outta nowhere
1:10 sounds like james kidd aka mary read
reaper ac130 as you see, ain't noone cares about AC xD
I thought the same
can u actually get anything from the burning house?
No, you cant even enter this house
You can make a picture from it.
I tried to talk, guy lost his head. Didn't care much for the guy when he got beheaded cuz that's their business and he must've done something bad.
Balls of steel, Olgierd. To tell the GOD to get lost like that🤣
0:24 and nobody noticed a cat walking calmly by 🐈🐈
I've watched this outcome 2 times and still didn't get it.
Now I do. He is one of the band of ruffians at the start and he killed the manor owner.

what i fucking find irritating is when i completed the contract i didnt get fucking paid and geralt totally forgot about it. Not I, though. Even was hoping for him to pay me for the contract even after i freed him from guanter
Wish eridin was as cool as either of the dlc villains heck even side quest villains are more interesting.
Gaunter semble bien ennuyé lorsqu'il rappel qu'il ne peut recouvrer la dette de suite.. MAIS ! Lorsqu'il présente Géralt il est satisfait :)
O' Dimm gives me the creeps , he is like lucy minus the charm of a womaniser and a Brit
I forgot where this place is on the map. Can someone point the location please?
you can start a HOTS-only new game, pick up your first quest, which is to go talk to Olgierd and it will mark the location you need on the map ;]
So all this time I was defending a moron who killed a defenseless man but then was too afraid to face the consequnces of his actions? fuck that. I'm still going to fight Olgierd, but only for the badass fighting scene.
i don´t think we actually see gaunter o´dimm actually arrive somewhere... it´s always framed that he´s not there, and suddenly he is
This man is Arthur Shelby
The voice actor?
I didn't even know you can avoid fighting him
i thought everyone had to
Iris bacwards is siri. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm 🤔
Damn good eye
sword siri
7:59 Never been to Skellige, a?
heh
It was a drink, tho
Wait what? I didn't get the part with the woman stabbing olgierd. I think it's because I (initially) sided with gaunter
I really hate Olgierd's attitude😒(despite under the heart of stone). He could told the details of monster.
But no. He just said bring monster head to me.

i love olgierd..
Thanks.
Am I the only one wondering how to get blood out of silk brocade?
Guys I am a little bit confused. I have just finished the game for my third time, however, I realised one thing... Why am I supposed to fulfill 3 wishes of Olgierd? I mean, shouldn't there be only one wish left, since he has already asked for immortality and restoring his wealth?
What about his first 3 then? The ones he got from odimm himself instead of askin geralt
i believe 1st is restore his fortune, 2nd live like there is no tomorrow and 3rd immortality
