I just noticed that he left the guy alive and with a block of wood under his feet. Any guesses as to what the woman did next?dragonbird said:
Hanged him and ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.cmdrsilverbolt said:
Heh, we joke, but man, that's probably close to what she did. War *sigh*Jobbert said:
That is why it's fantastic that CDPR included this at the beginning of the trailer.vivaxardas said:
No one is purely good or evil.
This being said, the women probably looted and commited cannibalism in order not to starve.
The war must have caused a famine with all these burnt down crops and the supplies being taken away by the armies.
Still, it's a crime.
But it reflects exactly the feeling of choice and consequence a witcher game should have.
On, and... looks like we will travel through lands occupied by Nilfgaard.
This ought to be fun.
I'm probably the only one who really didn't like this trailer, doesn't make any sense at all. It looked way too much Assassin's Creed, everything reminds me of Revelations and Ezio, if I didn't see TW3 logo I would probably think Ubisoft announced another AC game

Although that ending seems a bit sadist for Geralt.
Sadist? no, fair, rude and brute fairness in the middle of a war, worse, just the after of a cruel war. A crude middle Ages scene very acurate. Placing the executioner on the other side of the gaze and let to the victim the last word about his life... Yes, extremally hard... as Geralt's world is now.
Well, I cannot see the similarity, nor the issue you have.EliphastheInheritor said:
Sure, he made it quick with the knife. I do not see anything wrong with that, Witcher was carrying daggers even in books.
Yes, Witcher is very fast, very strong and fight's "fancy". Hiding a dagger "in a sleeve", is nothing special, by hiding dagger standards.
He is certainly not wearing a white robe with a hood.
Why it doesn't make sense?
Saving a trying-to-survive-girl from torment, suffering and certain death? That doesn't make sense?
To me it does.
So Eliphas... OPEN THE PORTAL!
Yep. I could get it if he were some peace corps volunteer first time in a war zone. But Gerald simply should have known better. That's why it pretty much does not make any sense for me.CostinMoroianu said:
Oh yeah, you are right. I never let her go, simply don't see any reason. We did not have a choice to kill Temerian soldiers, that would be crazy. So why suddenly does he behave like this?Alextyc1 said:
"The witcher was approaching from the main street, walking between stalls, coming straight towards them.
'Renfri was right,' Civril said. 'Give me the crossbow, Nohorn.' He hunched over and, holding the strap down with his foot, pulled the string back. He placed the bolt carefully in the groove as the witcher continued to approach. Civril raised the crossbow.
'Not one step closer, witcher!'
Geralt stopped about forty paces from the group.
'Where's Renfri?'
The half-blood's pretty face contorted. 'At the tower. She's making the sorcerer an offer he can't refuse. But she knew you would come. She left a message for you.'
'Speak.'
'"I am what I am. Choose. Either me, or a lesser." You're supposed to know what it means.'
The witcher nodded, raised his hand above his right shoulder, and drew his sword. The blade traced a glistening arc above his head. Walking slowly, he made his way towards the group."
"Renfri entered the marketplace.
She approached slowly with a soft, feline step, avoiding the carts and stalls. The crowd in the streets and by the houses, which had been humming like a hornet's nest, grew silent. Geralt
stood motionless, his sword in his lowered hand. Renfri came to within ten paces and stopped, close enough to see that, under her jacket, she wore a short coat of chain-mail, barely covering her hips.
'You've made your choice,' she said slowly. 'Are you sure it's the right one?'
'This won't be another Tridam,' Geralt said with an effort.
'It wouldn't have been. Stregobor laughed in my face. He said I could butcher Blaviken and the neighbouring villages and he wouldn't leave his tower. And he won't let anyone in, not even you. Why are you looking at me like that? Yes, I deceived you. I'll deceive anyone if I have to, why should you be special?'"
"'Is this,' he said, with a broad gesture indicating the motionless bodies strewn across the square, 'how your lesser evil looks? Is this what you believed necessary?'
'Yes,' replied Geralt slowly, with an effort.
'Is your wound serious?'
'No.'
'In that case, get out of here.'
'Yes,' said the witcher. He stood a moment longer, avoiding the alderman's eyes. Then he turned away slowly, very slowly.
'Geralt.'
The witcher looked round.
'Don't come back,' said Caldemeyn. 'Never come back.'"
Pretty sure Geralt realises what he's done. But that's just his choice and, right or wrong (if there even is a truly right choice in the situation), he's sticking with it.
