As someone who read the books after playing the trilogy, I think whatever the game spoils in the books, the average gamer won't have enough context to understand just how earthshaking those spoilers are until they actually read the books. Playing the games and then seeing major names like Philipa Eilhart and Vilgefort fully fleshed out in the books only made the reading more entertaining, especially since the games showed immense respect to the continuity of the books (as opposed to the Netflix series).

I love the idea that you'll get an entire Witcher Retrospective out before Joseph Anderson can finish the Witcher 3 video.

I love TW2 aswell. It really is an amazing game and one of the rare times when your choices drastically affect the game and how it plays out. It's a fucking MASTERPIECE.

Dude Letho of Gulet was a freaking baller. That opening scene was legitimate.

Witcher 2 was my introduction to the Witcher series. Whole time I was playing, I had no clue what was happening. This has not changed.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBA28v_fCBc&t=4052">1:07:32</a> You missed the point of the quest. The bandits were working against Thaler and against Temeria, but for Loredo. They were also dealing with fisstech and are connected to the story of Malena

As I said under the last video, I can never resist a lengthy Witcher video, and your previous one made me reinstall the first game when others did not give me that desire. Also can’t resist a comment, being so early! In three hours, I’ll let you know whether I’m reinstalling Witcher 2. It’s gonna be some great three hours! (Wish you uploaded yesterday when I was deep cleaning my place…)

I loved The Witcher when I played it, and I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited for a game than The Witcher 2 because of it. And honestly it didn’t disappoint!<br>There were a few things I missed from 1 (like the different fighting styles) but overall I think it’s a phenomenal game. Despite the flaws of 2 and the improvements 3 brought, 2 is probably still my favourite

Fantastic video!!!<br><br>Also a cool continuity thing, in the first game Beringar reminds Geralt that he broke his right leg in the past and so when he does his pirouette he leaves his right leg down. In the fight against Letho at the end you can see Geralt doing just that.

I read the books after finishing the trilogy and was surprised just how different things were like how Witcher’s don’t carry two swords on there backs just one depending on the situation there in. Another thing that took me by surprise is just how little Geralt actually uses Signs or how theres not really diffrent Witcher potions just 1 general elixir. But what surprised me the most was how little some characters appeared like going off the games I thought Triss was going to be a major character in the books but she really isn’t she has her moments but is rarely brought up
