Im very down for Witcher lore, not many larger channels have even touched it. Free relistate. Do you find more interest in the deep Mythical type of lore, or the Biological nightmare kinda lore.

I bounce between You Roanoke and Lutin for a good mixture Of it all.
@@FeedMeSalt I absolutely love mythology so I’d really wanna cover that at some point. Maybe when we get to a larger sub count. It interests me a lot but I know others aren’t as bothered if it’s not about games haha
@@WiseFish i get it is not for everyone, i do love playing gwent a lot, i´m just happy that there is so many ways to enjoy witcher content now a days, and is pretty much thanks to the witcher 3.
I know Witcher from my teenage years. It still surprise me how popular it became worldwide. It's nice to see people around the world diving into this universe and falling in love with it...like I did years ago.
@@WiseFish well...I read the story in middle of 90'. It was one of those "Lord of the ring" books kind of experience. I felt in love with characters, story and the universe...right away. Then we made tv series (we...I mean Polish) which was absolutely horrible...and finally guys from CD Project made it known for the rest of the world thanks to video game. So cool to see next generations falling into this story. Awesome.
Joseph Anderson theorized that in the first witcher game you arent actually fighting Eredins spectre at the end since youre in a shared dream state with the main villian. Pretty convincing but he also took like an entire hour to fully explain his point. Worth the watch.

An epic overview and recap of the lore in this fantastic franchise. I never played the first 2 games but did play 3 and all the DLC, loved it dearly. Really enjoyed this bit of deeper lore into the antagonists of the game. Well played!
I have yet to read the Witcher novels. Your Witcher background video's are so very informative. The best I have ever seen. Congrats. Netflix had so much potential with the Witcher novels. They really "Dropped the ball" including letting Henry Cavill walk away. So much wasted potential. HBO would have done a better job by far.
IMO the books were ok for the first 2, to suck you in, then it got disjointed and went game of thrones, subverting expectations and leaving little to be invested in, the games are way better and the show was horrific, full of misandry and europhobia. Hoping the next game will be great, or I'll just do another playthrough on the witcher 3
@@bezveze2825how's it a stupid comparison when they're topic related? A. Cyberpunk is made by the same the same game studio that makes the Witcher games. B. The actor who plays Geralt is leaving the Witcher and taking a role in a Warhammer 40k show. C. It's definitely funny to think about if you have a semblance of humor and enough knowledge about the three verses.
I love finding channels I can just FEEL the potential in. You will take off my friend. You give me the same vibes some of my favorite channels did when I first found them. No pressure, do what interests you of course. But I'm very confident you are going places. Try too add flavourful context and personality when it's suitable. Avoiding being just a wiki reader is key I find, not that I have any authority in this field of work 🙃 so grains of salt you know. Keep it up friend. I'm grateful.
I really love you're lore videos, i love the witcher and have beat the games more times than i can remember lol still learning new stuff, anyways keep up the good work
Thank you! I love the lore around the witcher universe but I just cant play the games themselves, I really appreciate someone taking the time to put the story together for the odd souls on the internet to enjoy.
in the context of the Continent, humans are as much as unnatural as archasae. Edit: aren't dwarves and gnomes original dwellers of the Continent with the elves?
More Witcher universe videos please. I subscribe to a lot of Witcher related RUclips channels but I will ALWAYS watch more Witcher content. Even if it's something already covered by someone else.
I always wished their where small refrences to witcher in cyberpunk, or eveb a side gig where you help cirie who then just vanishes or some wild hunt who are trapef using cyberwere Jonnys reaction would be funny
Just found you. Thanks for answering all my questions. If I wasn't sick with no income, I'd definitely donate. I send you love. I've subscribed, liked and commented on everything I've watched. I do my best. Love.
Been almost decade but every time I watch wild hunt it still chills my spine and make me goosebumps. This is why I say Witcher game is the game of the century.
@@WiseFish Hello WiseFish I have finished putting my ideas on paper for what a Mr House Victory would be like, it is quite long and detailed would you like to see it & bounce off ideas?
Is there any explanation as to why they are all so tall?? Like even the foot soldiers of the hunt are clearly much larger then our protagonist, and ereden and imelrith are even taller then them , google even says eredin is like 10 foot tall so what’s the go? Is it there just left gravity on there world?
Considering magic also appeared post conjunction and it works like a illness. Simply somehow a disease that affects humans on a different world spreaded to the continent via conjunction. Think of it this way, throughout history we have cases of diseases being carried from Europe and africa to lets say for example, the americans. Took the natives by suprise. Immune system couldnt fight these unknown new diseases.
Actually humans are villains, they massacred the elves, same as the Europeans did with the native Americans. Also they treat all other races as inferior etc....
Yennefer definitely couldn’t they needed the lodge at their peak, one of the strongest sages, the strongest Witcher ever, a child of the elder blood and they needed to turn their general against their king and take out one of their strongest generals on his own and take out the crones who were serving them if they faced all of the hunt at one point they would have no chance
After all this time, still the ONE thing that was a huge disappointment for me in WE3, as a Witcher fan from the very first game, was it turning out that this super awesome cool world-ending apocalyptic freaking threat is just more fucking elves. Weird terrorist slave-owning elves. But elves. I mean, sure, it motivated me to genocide them all the harder, but it was still a huge letdown.
The white frost is an ancient power that decimates worlds for fun the wild hunt would never be able to beat it no one could apart from ciri who had magical blood which was its counter also prophecy and shit
No… more for her blood which he could use to open the great portal the unicorns closed and invade geralts world and he could also use ciris blood to defeat the white frost
THE WITCHER AND DRAGON AGE are sole of the best LORE in the video game UNIVERSE. How I wish PETER JACkson took interest in both this franchise. I would set aside $1000 for each of this franchises as I did for the LORD OF THE RINGS. Both can realistically at minimum generate $10 Billion each. A double trilogy. Just imagine a cinematic scene of GERALT Having to slay his once lover since she is the BOUNTY. Or an unlikely ELVEN assasin drafted from the slums of DENERIM to become the hero GREY WARDEN.
Hope you guys enjoyed this look into The Witcher universe! I’d love to do more so do let me know your thoughts on it!

TW3 is my favourite game aswell, please do more.

Gwent is the best part of the Witcher 😂😂
The cards also have effects that somewhat reflect their lore.

It truly is an epic post .
I’d definitely recommend playing the second game. It still holds up and I think it might be on gamepass.

They really "Dropped the ball" including letting Henry Cavill walk away. So much wasted potential. HBO would have done a better job by far.
@MichaelD PA Agreed! I have much more faith in HBO!
Skip the books, listen to the audio books instead it’s an absolute treat.
IMO the books were ok for the first 2, to suck you in, then it got disjointed and went game of thrones, subverting expectations and leaving little to be invested in, the games are way better and the show was horrific, full of misandry and europhobia.

Spotify has three of the audiobooks for free there really good
HBO profile didn't want to be bothered
I kinda think it would be funny if these guys accidently tried to invaded the world of Cyberpunk or 40k.
They'd get obliterated in seconds
They would likely be confused for Dark eldar in 40k and obliterated by a deathwatch detachment.
They’d be lucky to get through the guard let alone the SM
What a stupid comparison. You can just pick and choose a world where characters are stronger than the ones you want to compare them with.

Thank you my friend! Appreciate the view as always!
New,subscriber here
You sir did an amazing job 👏
You put some Good work here awesome
Great video as always
You should do videos on the different empires of the witcher universe
I had that thought last night. I think that’ll be super interesting!
They weren't lying, the hunt do be wild
Your voice is so soothing, you could probably read the phonebook and make it sound good...
I can always give that a go if I run out of video ideas? Haha but thanks dude means a lot!
I was horrified at the beginning ..damn dude u r good at storytelling 😂😂
Thank you my friend! I do try haha
love this lore video

Poisoned viagra

I shouldn't have watch this vid while playing Witcher 3 ngl, I've been spoiled 5 times lmao
Ciri actually only kills 2 of the crones
So Ciri went from being a bonus to the Wild Hunt, to a necessity needed for their survival.
How unlucky. She’s hunted but for different reasons.
Aii, Mr who puts me to sleep released a video. Guess i will sleep Well tonight.
Haha always happy to help where I can :)
At 8:45 you use what looks like something from thronebreakers but im pretty sure it isnt, where is it from?
All Witcher 3 cutscenes. The one with Geralt looking out is a loading screen then following that the Wild Hunt bit is from the intro cutscene
I LOVE WITCHER STUFF
The WH in the game did not seem too dangerous as a ton of missions involving them was cut, like their rampage through Novigrad.
The endgame was rushed due to the deadline but I think they initially had much more planned for the WH especially the eredin boss fight
Been almost decade but every time I watch wild hunt it still chills my spine and make me goosebumps. This is why I say Witcher game is the game of the century.
I thought the Gnomes had populated the Continent first, not the Humans, and it was them that the elves had encountered when they landed?
Now this is my Eredin! Netflix did such a terrible casting and storyline for Eredin in Blood Origin! Another flop!
They should have used the The Wild Hunt in the Netflix Witcher series. Would have made for an epic season or two. Too late now though....
This is a good one, May I ask what is next?
Haven’t decided yet, anything you wanna see in particular?
@@WiseFish A What If House Victory at Hover Dam & then 30 years latter he meets the East Coast BoS under Maxson, what do you think?

Is it there just left gravity on there world?
Yeh pretty much due to the difference in the world they’re from
How did werewolves appear from the conjuction if they're just humans afflicted with lykanism?
I guess the conjunction does it somehow
Considering magic also appeared post conjunction and it works like a illness. Simply somehow a disease that affects humans on a different world spreaded to the continent via conjunction. Think of it this way, throughout history we have cases of diseases being carried from Europe and africa to lets say for example, the americans. Took the natives by suprise. Immune system couldnt fight these unknown new diseases.
Insane story.
i like that the witcher made the elves the villains, instead of humans. the change of pace is great. (still love the elves regardless)
Actually humans are villains, they massacred the elves, same as the Europeans did with the native Americans. Also they treat all other races as inferior etc....
So the wild hunt is like a Scooby Doo villain but instead, they’re just soldiers, elf soldiers/slavers Yennifer can take them
Kind of, they're like Elves on magic steroids. Stronger than regular Elves, but they can still die :)
Yennefer definitely couldn’t they needed the lodge at their peak, one of the strongest sages, the strongest Witcher ever, a child of the elder blood and they needed to turn their general against their king and take out one of their strongest generals on his own and take out the crones who were serving them if they faced all of the hunt at one point they would have no chance
A forget great video
The artstyle of the drawn parts is really similar to the Darkest Dungeon. Is that intentional?
Its a crying shame that fantasy fiction could not be our non-fiction.
What I learned from this is that the elves are similar to WWII Germany
Or 2024 russia
WiseFish, will you remember me when you are famous?
Of course my dude haha always an OG to me
Whoever sees this and hasn't played Witcher 3, please change that
What are you using as sources? I've read the books, played W2 and W3...
I'm also confused : S
14:45 Are you saying Ciri agreed to have children with the King? 😭
What makes you think she consented? Or needed to? She was a captive.
After all this time, still the ONE thing that was a huge disappointment for me in WE3, as a Witcher fan from the very first game, was it turning out that this super awesome cool world-ending apocalyptic freaking threat is just more fucking elves. Weird terrorist slave-owning elves. But elves. I mean, sure, it motivated me to genocide them all the harder, but it was still a huge letdown.
Horizon Zero Dawn lore would be good.
I'd love to jump in on that! I'll make a note
The lore is in the game
How does the witcher: Blood Origins, change the lore of the wild hunt?
Oh well you see eredin is gay and does everything for his lover, the hunt aren’t intimidating at all and avallach is just a disappointment
everything is badass when you have a skull for a face ! 💀
Great conrent
imagine Whitestrake saw these elves man they'd all get fucking murdered
Excellent game.
The Witcher 3 is one of the best games of all time!!
Bloody knife ears
NI
i like it
Fucking brilliant
algorythm something
I dont undestand.. eredin and them all has some magical ice powers but they are afraid of whitefrost😂😂 lol
The white frost is an ancient power that decimates worlds for fun the wild hunt would never be able to beat it no one could apart from ciri who had magical blood which was its counter also prophecy and shit
The whole wild hunt stupidity is the only thing that’s bad about the game. Felt lazy
Errr ...sounds very much like Norse mythology..
ruclips.net/video/zIV4poUZAQo/видео.html This is them now, feel old yet?
The atmosphere created ingame when the wild hunt appears is unequaled imo. Its taken until Eldon ring before i could enjoy a game again !
So what you’re saying is that eredin was chasing ciri down because he wanted ass? Man that makes the game feel nasty.
Who Ciriously wouldn't want Ciriass
No… more for her blood which he could use to open the great portal the unicorns closed and invade geralts world and he could also use ciris blood to defeat the white frost
Oo
And Netflix ruined the name 😢
