I'm pretty sure the answers to all those questions were answered in The Witcher 1 in journal entries.

IIRC, the Witchers were created by a master Elven swordsman and an alchemist. They were created to kill monsters (everyone knows that.) There are different school because The Witchers are not a tightly knit organization like the Jedi Knights or historical Knights Templar. Each school teaches a slightly different combat style. The school of the Wolf focuses on martial abiltity; especially swordsmanship. The Witchers declined because (A) they were no longer needed as the human kingdoms grew strong and adapted to the dangerous world they entered during the conjunction of spheres (B) humans innately fear what is diffferent from them and what they don't understand, and once the Witchers were no longer needed they began to be persecuted. The Wolf school was famously massacred during a pomgram that killed all the Witchers living at Kaer Morhen. Only Vessimer survived.

Of course, part of the point of The Witcher series is that The Witchers are in decline and they don't necesarily even want to revive their order. They're a member of a dying caste that used a wicked means to accomplish a noble end. They recogonize the method of creating a Witcher isn't exactly ethical and choose not to continue it. In all the games, Bertram, Letho, and Lambert each have their turn playing the "anti-hero" Witcher to emphasize this (in literature, an "anti-hero" is someone who resists the call to duty or greatness, btw.)

So what are you saying? You think an early witcher universe with Vessimer in it is interesting. But not about how everything started, rather just monster contracts or some other plot? I've played the games but I haven't read the books (yet). So I'm not sure how much suitable material there is in the books to build something from.

CDPR has said many times they are done with Geralt, the Witcher 3 was the conclusion of his story. They did however say they "might" visit the Witcher universe sometime in the distant future but that it is not likely at this point in time.

Cyberpunk is going to be their next big thing and will most probably take up all of their time and resources over the next 5 to 7 years if they plan on making more than 1 game.

I figure your about a decade too early asking questions about any type of new Witcher game at least coming from CDPR.

First of all, I want it to exist. Secondly I'd like to see either
Ciri story, other worlds as we saw in the game
or the world before Geralt, when Witcher schools are sill alive, attack on Kaer Morhen, all that stuff. I think it would be a pretty interesting thing to experience.

Well, people who don't like swords and sorcery have must to avoid TW3 and so they cannot enjoy what CDPR have made in this awesome game. Maybe it's turn for swords and sorcery fans waiting better time while lovers of SC&F enjoy CP77 in all its glory. Don't you think so?

Ciri should totally make a cameo in Cyberpunk 2077. I'd be surprise if she didn't.

I'm just saying those questions are already answered. We already know what and why. The only question we don't know is who. Who were the first Witchers? How many failed experiments were there before the alchemist succesfully created his first one?

I think a game set during the rise of Witchers would be interesting simply because there would be far more of them, far more monsters, and human settlements would be far less developed. It would be a different world. A world before the Elder races went into decline.


And for what it's worth, what I said was not contradictory at all. Vessimer is no-where close to being the first Witcher. As best I can tell the Witcher caste is over 1,000 years old. Vessimer is maybe 200 tops.

the witcher franchise its more than 10 years old (yes is that old) so witcher 4 its a no for me,

Well, first of all, I think this was a good way to end Geralt's stories. The next thing I'd like to see, is a spin-off game for Ciri. We know Ciri is a the child of space and time, therefore, I would like to play a game where you visit all these crazy worlds, including her experience in Arthurian times...that's right! King Arthur, Lancelot, Lady of The Lake(Ciri)...and perhaps even taking us through the part where she saves Geralt and Yen from the hunt or red riders.

If they ever make a Witcher 1 remake all I want is to... play as Leo Bonhart. Old Leo was a bastard, but a cool one. I don't know how, time-travel, magic, dream sequence... just give me my Leo lol. Such a great antagonist and character.

I do think Ciri has a lot more potential in story to tell for the next witcher games, the problem is the endings are so different for Witcher 3 that CDPR will have to get quite inventive to try and figure out a way to tie them all together so that they can each follow one story.

I have my doubts however because in one ending dandelion says she is never seen up to the point he is telling the story which means either the story will have to take place many years later where dandelion is old and his voice has changed, the game takes place in a different world or dandelion is lying to protect Ciri.

it is more likely that CDPR will create a new protagonist with a lengthy backstory (hopefully). If this is the case then I hope that the protagonist is a young 25ish year old witcher who belongs to the bear school.

Still though if Ciri is not going to be the protagonist then I hope she will have at least a big role in the next game rather than just a cameo, because cameos really do suck.

I think they'll probably just merge the endings somehow.

Like the Barber Shop scene.

"Were you going to be Empress?"

* Yes.
* No.
* Actually, I almost died in another universe. People thought I was dead.

Sorry to break it to you. But I think The Witcher 3 will be the final big game of it's franchise. And that is okay. I am having a ton of fun.

Eh, they've already said there's more Witchers coming so I don't get where people get this.

Well...I completely agree with Willowhugger. I would also love to have ciri for the next game and also female and male love interests. But her big love should be a female. Come on...why not? Geralt's big love is yennefer...but He also Made triss happy more than once and so many other women..

Witcher 4? How about first giving us W3 EE with massive fixes on every level, including all the principal story problems and making imports counts

Then maybe. I'm not interested in playing another game where everything we did before is rendered meaningless.

Any particular reason?

Oh I understand the notion that CDPR may not care to bother and instead do the expansions and then forget about the game, but so what? That mean we should ignore the problems and not do what we can as fans to make them change their mind on this?

Here.

Basically, this is how it looks. They've got a 94 Metacritic game with millions of copies sold already - no matter how you look at it, for CDPR it's a massive success. Would I want justice done to Radovid? Yep. Would I like to see TW2 choices matter more in the game? Of course. But it just ain't gonna happen.

Right now they are working on future expansions, while still supporting the game with patches. There just isn't enough time, money and devs to do what you would like them to do @CostinRaz
