The Scoia'tael - Where are our favorite terrorists?
Now that we've settled the Triss and Yennefer argument by properly driving it into the ground, let's talk about another notable absence from the game.
THE SQUIRRELS!
Not Iorveth, per se, but the fact that everyone's favorite terrorists are absent except for one small band.
Why?
You could say they have no role in the game but the game's premise IS THE NORTH VERSUS NILFGAARD! The Squirrels were founded by the Nilfgaard the same way that the Taliban got a lot of support from the United States during the war against the Soviets. The Squirrels, like Letho, were betrayed by the Nilfgaard and handed over for execution to the North.
You'd think this would be relevant when discussing whether Nilfgaard's takeover is a good thing or whether Emhyr can be trusted.
Hell, they might even decide to let bygones be bygones because Radovid is THAT bad.
Or maybe kill BOTH sides.
This is a pretty big omission.
They're not a small group and played a key role in the previous two games.
