    Hi all, thank you for all the incredible support! 😊😊 We have created a new version of this video without the background Witcher 3 clips, which some felt could contain spoilers: czcams.com/video/vVqAwEwS0As/video.html

    I didn't realize Triss and Geralt's relationship began with Triss effectively drugging and raping Geralt. Weird.

    If your going to play the Witcher 3 cus of the next gen update DO NOT watch this video, it contains major spoilers in the video clips that will ruin your experience on your playthrough cus you will know what's about to happen. You however could LISTEN to this video and be fine. You have been warned.

    Geralt picked the, "of Rivia," but was also knighted by Queen Meve of Rivia. I believe it was when he and Cahir defended Rivia against Nilfgard on a bridge.

    Good job, but putting scenes from the 3rd game in your videos spoilerd me a lot of stuff. Maybe don't do that when you recap previous games for people who wanna play the third game..

    • @MercurialStatic
      @MercurialStatic Před rokem +41

      Note that you spend only two words praising her comprehensive which took a great deal of hours to complete, and spend over 30 composing that your personal experience has been somewhat ‘spoiled’ for a game that is over 7 years old, and other games that are over a decade. It’s fair to assume you never played those in their entirety either since you are watching this video in the first place.
      If you got more than a few minutes in and continued to watch knowing there was video content from Witcher 3, that’s your own fault. You could’ve just listened to the audio and prevented that yourself.
      Don’t ask someone to alter their entire craft just because you lack the self-control to stop watching the video.

    Great video learned a lot of backstory for one on my favorite games. Also anyone complaining about Witcher 3 clip spoilers obviously doesn’t understand you can’t spoil something that is 8 years old. The video title’s first 3 words are “The Witcher 3” and your surprised that there are Witcher 3 clips in the video. It doesn’t take a genius to not click on a video with a game title you don’t want spoilers for.

      @jensvandenbossche1010 Před rokem

      Yeah I also don't get why people would fight Letho. Geralt already cleared his name by now and they have no reason to fight, Geralt was never a target of Letho. I also don't get why video ever tells about the fact that the mages are being set up by nilfgaard and the kingslayers to take the blame of the kingslaying. There way of letting the North fall was not only by killing the kings, but to let the mages get blamed for it, so the North and the Mages would get in a war. When every is worn down Nilfaard can just clean up after them.
