At the end of the second game, Geralt dismissed Letho's plan, saying that "the North could be united like never before." He turns out to be correct, but while Radovid does indeed unite the North and halts Nilfgaard's invasion, he ends up becoming a tyrant on par with Emhyr. And if Radovid isn't killed, then things will go From Bad to Worse. Irish folklore rarely has such clichéd happy endings. Even though he wanted to, the peasant boy simply had no way to save his love from her husband.

Wherever and however she found him, the Dearg Due swooped upon him with all her fury and not only drained his life force away, but even drank all his blood, leaving nothing but a shallow husk on the ground.

Vernam Hull, ed., Togail bruidne Da Derga: the Cín Dromma Snechta recension, Zeitschrift für Celtische Philologie 24 (1954) The myth of the Dearg Due starts as the archetypical story of a beautiful woman fated to have an unhappy arranged marriage. Count Beledal from the Big Game Hunter sidequest in Blood and Wine is well-liked for his genuinely bloodless sidequest, his inane selfie painting and perhaps the first NPC in a long while to treat Geralt with complete and utter respect. The Reveal that he truly is a loving and dedicated father has only helped increase his popularity. From the DLC, the entire wedding sequence in the questline "Dead Man's Party" from Hearts of Stone. While it may be something minor in the main scheme of things, Geralt's beard will dynamically grow as the game progresses. Even with the "Beard and Haircut" DLC installed, it'll keep growing if you get a clean shave or grow/trim it to his fourth beard stage. All of the special styles are static.

Uma, the ugliest man alive, also has some weird cuteness factor to himself. Particularly hilarious considering how serious and somber his real personality is. Yennefer is either loved or hated, due to the extreme corners of her Sugar-and-Ice Personality. Yennefer acts according to her own wants and needs, not bothering to ask permission or explain her actions. She expects everyone to simply trust her planning and intuition, although she doesn't extend the same courtesy. Many fans feel that her anger with Geralt for being together with Triss when his memories of Yennefer had been taken away was unjustified. What crossed the line for many players was the quest "Nameless", where she ignores the grieving townswomen, ignores the pain of Skjall's corpse as she performs necromancy on him, and destroys a sacred garden all to find Ciri. Yet other fans love her Mama Bear and Ice Queen tendencies, feeling that she did what she had to to protect her daughter and save the world. The continuous stream of In-Universe criticism she gets from everyone also makes her more sympathetic - especially since most of it comes from characters who barely know Yennefer or anything about her relationship with Geralt (Keira, Cerys), canonically have betrayed Yennefer or owe her their lives (Triss, Philippa, Dandelion), or characters being spiteful or unhelpful to her for apparently no reason (Lambert, Vesemir). An in-game example comes if Geralt sends Keira Metz off to Kaer Moren, saying that she'd be safe there "as long as you don't piss Lambert off". They wind up as a couple at the end of the game this way. Memes were abound after it was declared that Charles Dance would play the part of Emperor Emhyr var Emrys. Probably the most funny one was this clip coupled with Emhyr's official title, the White Flame Who Dances Upon the Barrows of His Foes.According to Celtic and Irish tradition, when a person died, if they had been “evil” in life, there was a risk that they would rise from their grave and turn into one of many possible Irish monstrosities – ghouls, ghosts, phantoms, zombies, demons, vampires, and many more. The godlings . Their childlike looks and benign, if sometimes mischievous demeanor make them highly endearing. Their "ugly" side is noticeable upon a closer look, which reveals that they have heavily lined, aged faces, suggesting an advanced age despite the childlike features and their eyelids are more similar to a reptile's (moving the lower eyelid up to close and not blinking with both eyes at the same time) adding to their otherness. The level scaling for looted items, most notably for weapons and armor. Whenever a weapon or piece of armor is found the game scales it depending on Geralt's current level. While this sounds nice in theory, the problem is that it often scales them to a way lower level which results in weapons that are supposed to be these legendary artefacts made in ages past or those hidden behind lengthy puzzles be completely outclassed by some random blade Geralt crafted in an afternoon. In fact, the weapons produced from crafting are simply so much more consistent and better that there really isn't a reason to search for what hidden treasure there is hidden out there.

The worst part about this particular boss is that it ignores all resistances, meaning there is absolutely no difference between fighting naked and wearing endgame armor. Tá chéin’, for Conairi, ‘cid so?’‘Fíanna ar thig’, or Conall Cernach. ‘Óig doib sund’, ol Conaire.‘Ricfaiter a les innocht’, for Conall Cernach. So that was “ dearg,” and we had lots of examples: Clóicín Dearg, léine dhearg, cuiríní dearga, báid dh The entirety of "No Place Like Home" where Geralt, Eskel, and Lambert get extremely drunk, put on Yennefer's clothes, and prank call the Lodge of Sorceresses with a megascope. It's much needed comic relief before a very emotional turning point in the story.

The Room of Sencha and Dubthach and Gobniu Son of Lurgnech.

Can happen to Dijkstra as well, depending on your choices. Should you play it right, it's entirely possible for him to die by the hand of a random mook.

Time has turned Triss from the preferred love interest into this. There are people who love her for her heroic role in saving the mages and having a sweeter disposition than Yennefer, while other players dislike her for taking advantage of an amnesiac, her continued manipulativeness and passive-aggressiveness towards Geralt, and her prioritizing her own desires and impulses above both the plight of the other mages and Geralt repeatedly. The endless series of characters praising Triss incessantly doesn't help, especially when it's out of character for them to do so and she doesn't show the good points they extoll.Olgierd von Everec was cursed by Gaunter O'Dimm and thus can't feel any love or empathy, but it's clear that he wasn't exactly a nice person before that happened either. He and his merry band of bandits did their fair shape of burning, raping and pillaging by the admission of his brother and second-in-command. His sole redeeming feature was his initial love for Iris, but even then detractors insist that a happy marriage was something he didn't deserve. The targeting system, especially when facing multiple opponents, since it would often arbitrarily shift targets in the middle of a fight. Geralt would be just a hit away from finishing off an enemy, only to switch targets when the dying enemy comes closer. As a result, many players were better off not using the targeting system at all. When it comes to accommodation in Scotland, there's a fantastic choice of amazing stays from luxury hotels to glamping getaways. Ron the Death Eater: Some people (mostly people not familiar with the books and Triss-fans) tend to paint Yennefer in the worst possible light. While it is true that she comes off as not nice and manipulative on occasion, it's mostly due to her emotional distress because her adoptive daughter is in mortal danger. The same people also tend to ignore that Triss herself can be and has been very manipulative too, especially emotionally in regards to Geralt, in both the books and the games. Player Punch: The choices you make within the game can result in several negative consequences. One of them in particular is the worst ending where Ciri lets herself die. If you have made Ciri unhappy throughout your playthrough, the game will play a montage of her bitter recollections towards you before she sacrifices herself. It can be easy to accidently get this ending since the choices you make towards Ciri may seem very minor and trivial.
