[Game] The "Fix the Ending Slides" thread

Just about everyone agrees the endings were incomplete.

Just about everyone agrees the game's ending was a bit incomplete with the three endings. So, really, this is a thread where you as the gamer come up with additional slides for your ending (or alternatives) which you think would have been better. Dandelion slides, Priscilla Slides, Dijkstra slides, and so on.

What would you add and what would you like to see?

What are the absences you see and how would you fix them?

Um hate to burst your bubble but not everyone hates them. It's ok if you don't but don't generalize to support your argument.

Moar!

MOAAAAARRRRRRRRR!

Changes I'd like to see

* A Dandelion slide for each ending.

* A Priscilla slide for each ending.

* A Zoltan slide for each ending.

* A Yennfer and Triss slide for when you DON'T romance them with each ending.

* A Lodge of Sorceresses slide.

* The North other than Temeria if Nilfgaard wins.

* How Ciri does as Empress if she wins.

* How Ciri does as Witcher.

* A Bloody Baron slide.

* The Lambert and Keria slide should be in the ending.

 

[Gerald01]

The ending slides are easily fixable. Ideally, it will end up looking like your oldie movie with:

"Dandelion did this and that ->humorous detail of some kind
"Zoltan ended up ...

Most of them are already there. Minor issue really.

 

[wright1978]

Yeah, while not my no1 priority(more content for core characters inc Triss)more epilogue slides would be nice. It would be nice to see various fates for the likes of zoltan etc. Surely in radovid's redania variation he'd be running for the hills.
Seeing the fate of the non romanced variant of Yen/Triss would be nice too. Dandelion fate shown in all epilogues not buried away in empress ending.

Some Suggestions

Ciri

* Empress Ciri proves to be a popular and enlightened monarch for the conquered Northern territories but controversial and disliked in the South due to her egalitarian policies. Frequently, she is forced to use force against her own people and put down rebellions--to which she has a staggering amount of success.

* Witcher Ciri proves to be the most successful Witcher of all time, eclipsing even Geralt in terms of slain monsters and epic deeds. Countless girls and boys are inspired by her adventures to imitate them. The first Witcheress becomes a force for justice across the North and her name eventually enters into legend.

Dandelion

* In the Geralt and Ciri dies ending, Dandelion ceases to create and becomes a recluse.

* In the Nilfgaard Wins ending, Dandelion leaves for Kovir just ahead of Nilfgaard's agents. Not even the Empress able to protect him from the revenge for his various ballads against them.

* In the Witcher Ciri ending, Dandelion creates a truly epic ballad celebrating the Third Nilfgaard War.

Priscilla

* If they found the right serial killer, Priscilla makes a mostly partial recovery and continues her career. Dandelion and Priscilla very briefly marry before breaking up but she maintains a close friendship with Geralt's circle of friend.

* If they found the wrong serial killer or failed to complete the quest, she is killed by him a few months later.

Zoltan

* If you complete his quest, he becomes a fabulously wealthy printer of Gwent cards, running tournaments and casinos across the North.

* In the Geralt and Ciri dies ending, Zoltan burns his Gwent card collection and becomes sullen and remorse-filled, picking up his ax to become a protector of the innocent.

* In the Empress Ciri ending, he becomes a frequent guest at the Empress' palace and advises her on nonhuman rights.

* In the Witcher Ciri, ending he uses his fortune to assist the innocent and victimized by the Third Nilfgaard war.

I like the Priscilla one, not much the Witcher Ciri one though.

I also think it's too complicated to have Ciri's paths reflect on all the other characters.. unless they are cumulative. Meaning get combined for the characters that have them avaliable (slide 1+ 2, 1+3 etc) as the endings differ.

What would be your Witcher Ciri one?

What would be your Witcher Ciri one?

An ambivalent one about how fascinating and thrilling at first, the Path revealed itself to be bitter for Ciri, unfit to satisfy her desire for a normal life.

Ah I apologize I misunderstood. In this case I can agree, while IMO not crucial it would be nice.

 

[Songborn]

I agree some additional slides would be awesome and actually one of the easier changes proposed in this forum. Though keeping it a bit vague might be intentional.

Oh, I absolutely think it's intentional. This is just if we had actual authority and no direct hope of a sequel.

 

[CoconutChriss]

Oh fuck... now I know I indeed could have caught the right serial killer.... thank you.

What would be left for TW4 with this?:troll:

 

[CTPhipps]

Yeah, that's the "No Witcher 4" ending.

I'm still hoping Ciri wakes up in Cintra with a head injury and half her powers plus Emhyr dead and his enemies after her.
