This is my first witcher experience and I had not one or any ounce of clue what it was. I just picked up this game because it looks cool at that time and now I poured thousands of hours to the trilogy
Just to be fair, it's hard to label Letho as a villain. He took a job and served in a similar fashion as Geralt, essentially as a tool in hands of real political players. Essentially they were both in the same camp. Letho just had a bit more employers than expected.
The show had so much potential. Would have been awesome to see Letho cast. To bad the writers thought they were better than the material they didn't understand.
It is sad see how interesting was the history in first and second game, but ignored in third because they dont want people need to play the others before. At least they could made a secondary questline with foltest daughter and a end with her as queen of Temeria, but no, she is forgoten with just a few references.

This scene was always weird to me. They make the whole thing so damn emotional. I get that it's dramatic, but the music, slow motion, and the focus on the kids makes it feel more like tragedy is taking place. Thing is it's established pretty early on that Foltest is an absolute prick. I guess the sad atmosphere makes sense considering the series of events his death set into emotion, but as the player we don't really know that at this point.
Foltest is a character from the very first Witcher story. He appears all throughout the saga and he's in the first game. The readers and players know him and he's a very well-liked character in the fandom. That's why his death is framed this way.

0:48 LMAO.
Almost spit out my drink when I heard “Go Bussy”
This aged very poorly
This soundtrack tho...
I love it
bro was on steroids before they got invented
His name is Bussy? He’s “the Bussy of the kingdom”?😂
This priest had gloves for days
Kid named bussy
The real villan is whoever named that poor kid bussy
Bussy cried so much he was soaking wet.
I know they are years apart, but i still think BG3 has one of the best (if not The best) introduction to a villain that of Ketheric Thorm.
Ironic title, because the first time I saw this scene, I thought it was awful. In part because I was immediately suspicious of the GIANT of a monk, and it only got worse when Geralt *wasn't*.
Boussy? What an unfortunate name.
It's not
Ah must be your name. It sounds like bussy. But thanks for playing.
It's a French origin name...there is a family name Boussy and that is also part of the name of the town Boussy-Saint-Antoine.....it actually kin of makes sense in the context...especially of the witcher book lore....the 'french connection' of Temeria...it's emblem being the lillies...so basically Fleur de Lis, plus those are children of baroness La Valette :)....and amusingly enough in the witcher lore the Temeria royal line had intermarried with the ducal line of the quite 'french'...Toussaint (duchy known also for it's wines :)) and one of the Foltest ancestors...his grandmother to be precise was...Bienvenu LaLouve ('She-wolf').
@@fantasywind3923 I know, I was making a joke.
GO BUSSY
"they have your eyes sire" fucking cool MF could be from the books of the witcher ¡
hehehe. Blind guy has his hood's forehead bit padded for knocking his head :))))))))))
This scene was always weird to me. They make the whole thing so damn emotional. I get that it's dramatic, but the music, slow motion, and the focus on the kids makes it feel more like tragedy is taking place. Thing is it's established pretty early on that Foltest is an absolute prick. I guess the sad atmosphere makes sense considering the series of events his death set into emotion, but as the player we don't really know that at this point.
Foltest is a character from the very first Witcher story. He appears all throughout the saga and he's in the first game. The readers and players know him and he's a very well-liked character in the fandom. That's why his death is framed this way.
We need UN5 remake. give us what we need
Gerelt would have jumped after letho if the rules of the games meant he didn't die from a 2ft drop.
I wouldn't dare call him as my father when my name is Bussy
The sons name is WHAT?
There is literally no blood on any of Gerald’s weapons, but he obviously did it.
Still a banger game, pisses me off when people say "just play 3, it's the best one!"
Geralt went running with a sword instead of just using one of his signs. dumass plotholes
Oh that "Boussy" name did not age well 💀
I thought this was the Game of thrones game... Mors😂
