  • Witcher 3 Lore What Are Beserkers? (Werebears). Cursed ones is a class of monster in the witcher that basically means a being with a curse. Werebears or beserkers in the witcher 3 fall under this class. In today's witcher 3 lore I will discuss werebears and their involvement in the witcher 3. They appear in skellige and possess some similarities to werewolves. I will discuss everything we know about werebears in the witcher 3 and how the beserkers fit into the witcher 3.
    The Witcher® 3: Wild Hunt is a story-driven, next-generation open world role-playing game, set in a visually stunning fantasy universe, full of meaningful choices and impactful consequences. You play as Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter tasked with finding a child from an ancient prophecy.
    Geralt of Rivia, is a witcher, or monster hunter for hire, a white-haired and cat-eyed legend in his own time. Trained from early childhood and mutated to gain superhuman skills, strength and reflexes, witchers like Geralt are a natural consequence of and counterbalance to the monster-infested world in which they live. As Geralt, you’ll embark on an epic journey in a war-ravaged world that will inevitably lead you to confront a foe darker than anything humanity has faced so far-the Wild Hunt.
    Built exclusively for next-generation hardware, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt marks a new era in RPG visual quality. Raising the bar for the entire genre, with its deeply integrated 5.1 audio and jaw-dropping graphics powered by CD PROJEKT RED’s proprietary REDengine 3, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt promises an entirely new kind of experience.

    A Warrior Cult, high up in the Mountains, dedicated to battle and training with a series of Trials and Rituals, guided by a magic user and using mushrooms and herbs, needed to transform them into the ultimate warrior...
    Remind you of anyone?
    Makes you wonder a bit about the School of the Bear too.
    Pure speculation of course but thought I'd mention it :D
    Great video mate!

  • @samuelrodriguez9801
    @samuelrodriguez9801 Před 3 lety +7

    The mushrooms are probably a reference to Amanita Muscaria, the mushroom believed to have created the Berserker state. Also, the cult being forbidden everywhere except for one isle sounds a lot like how Berserkers in history became banned everywhere except for one location as Norse cultures became more civilized.

  • @justsomewitcherwithalongsw4233

    Berserkers have always made me think of Middle Earth’s Beornings. Children of Beorn, who can appear as a great man/woman or a large bear. Warriors, hunters, guardians of the woods they inhabit. Nonetheless, the Witcher/Hexer’s take on skin changers is an intriguing addition to the gaming/novel mythology.

    Just thought I'd drop a comment to say how much I love this channel. The videos are beautifully put together and the accuracy of the lore is perfect. I'm a big fan of the series and came to the game from wild hunt. I've now gone back and played the other games and have been using your huge index of lore to help me understand the series along the way. So just want to say thank you and hope to see many uploads in the future :)

    Like the videos witchergeorge, but one thing has interested me about Witchers. I know they were made to fight monsters. But who made them? And what did they stand to gain? If it was just to rid the world of monsters and protect people why weren't they paid by the state? Who exactly created them? Did they take a cut of the bounty? Did the Witchers pay homage to them? Or were they just concerned and nice citizens?

  • @volibear7635
    @volibear7635 Před 4 lety +2

    My favourite monsters are the Chorts and Fiends. I think I find them interesting because goats and deer are animals that humans prey upon and we usually view them as harmless, but these are territorial mountains of muscle that can kill and eat entire armies easily.
    It almost makes me wonder if a goat or deer affected by a disease similar to Lycantrophy can turn them into such creatures. However the fact that sometimes they are bound to and controlled by witches and other entities shows that they've probably been created through magic means. Princess the goat confirmed Chort for witcher 4.

  • @thornwolf4234
    @thornwolf4234 Před 4 lety +1

    What if we could play as one? And have two forms to play with, boss fights and fights differing based on what we choose. It would be cool to be within the witcher universe and NOT be one of the big named characters, but rather someone simply living who crosses paths with geralt and ends up on an adventure. (They could make a new character, name him/her and have them be this character who could continue via the games. So geralt ending in Witcher 3 at least as playable could be respected.)
    Imagine fighting side by side with geralt and a monster is giving you fits, you get knocked away and geralt gets pinned. You have two prompts, turn or remain and if you remain you run up and slice the monster with your weapon and proceed that way. OR you transform and rush the enemy and smash into them, getting a small cinematic and quick time events while you continue to fight.
    Would add tons of replay-ability ontop of what we already get, and it would be cool to not be a witcher but still be someone who gets roped into shenanigans.
