The Witcher is a computer Role-Playing Game in which you play Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter questing to regain his memories whilst pursuing revenge against a mysterious group known as the Salamandra. It was based on an upgraded version of the Neverwinter Nights Aurora engine, developed by CD Projekt RED and released in late 2007.The title is set in The 'Verse introduced by Andrzej Sapkowski's novel of the same name. It sold unexpectedly well both in the US and worldwide, given that it was a niche PC game based on a book mostly unknown outside of Central Europe. A sequel, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, was released on May 17, 2011. A third game, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released on May 19, 2015.Interestingly, the first Witcher game has a rather extensive post-release history. A remake of the first game titled The Witcher: Rise Of The White Wolf was to be released for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 in 2009, featuring a brand new engine and more action-oriented combat system in the vein of the then-upcoming sequel. Unfortunately, it was cancelled in 2009 due to disagreements between CD Projekt Red and co-developer Widescreen Games. However, in 2012, a group of modders endorsed by CD Projekt Red began work on an ambitious mod for the Enhanced Edition, also titled "Rise Of The White Wolf," that introduced new story elements, a seriously overhauled interface, an improved combat system, and updated graphics. The mod was released in 2014 to great acclaim and is now seen by many as the definitive way to play the original. Then on October 26, 2022, CD Projekt RED announced a new attempt to remake the game. Entitled The Witcher Remake, is it to be co-developed by Fool's Theory and built on Unreal Engine 5.Note: The tropes listed on both this and the YMMV page are for the vanilla Enhanced Edition. The updates/changes made in the "Rise Of The White Wolf" overhaul are not included at the moment. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_108c268e | comment |
Hotter and Sexier: While the books made it clear that Geralt Really Gets Around, the games are somewhat infamous for their level of sexual content. This game in particular has an almost absurd number of Optional Sexual Encounters. The sequel significantly cuts down on the number of encounters, but counteracts that with some very explicit cutscenes. | |

Parrying Bullets: Subverted when the Professor comments that he's heard witchers can parry arrows in flight just before he shoots Leo, a witcher trainee, with a crossbow. Later played straight when Geralt blocks a crossbow bolt, causing the Professor to remark, 'I guess it was true after all.' | |

20 Bear Asses | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_16e4b425 | comment |
20 Bear Asses: Recurring quests in every chapter. A few things make this more bearable than most examples; hunting monsters for cash is ostensibly Geralt's day job, the quests are more of "collect as you do real quests", the drop-rates are high, and there is a perfectly good in-game reason for why someone would want these specific bear asses (alchemy, mostly). This also serves the gameplay purpose of familiarizing the player with where alchemical ingredients can be found, and giving an opportunity to collect a surplus for their own use. | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain: The Reverend at first seems like a slightly Jerkass but ultimately well meaning priest. You quickly learn that he's actually a fanatical nutjob who first had his own daughter thrown out of the village and now scapegoats the local mage as the cause of the recent increase in monsters, and even provokes most of the villagers into a howling lynch mob. Oh, and if you stop the (unjust) lynching? He sics his cronies on you, despite the fact that you just killed the monster that was plaguing the village! | |

Genre Savvy: Geralt is well aware of "traditional" endings to common fantasy stories, and sarcastically brings them up constantly. He also sees through the excuses and lectures of the bad guys and tries to cut straight to the chase several times. | |

Continuity Porn: More often and gratuitous than the standard porn, with many references to the novels thrown in for no other reason than to please the fans. On the other hand, the game is perfectly playable by those who don't know original material, and according to Word of God, they are an Alternate Universe sequel to the books with story input by Sapkowski. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Probably from the same source Dandelion learned about cognitive dissonance, Breaking the Fourth Wall for Dummies. Considering that terms like "genetics" and "mutant" get thrown around often, it's pretty clear that the world has plenty of anachronistic aspects to it, probably thanks to magic and alchemy. Why shouldn't there be superhero fiction in a world with real, superpowered Witchers? | |

I Need a Freaking Drink | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_1f250372 | comment |
I Need a Freaking Drink: Said by Shani if you are on the Neutral path during chapter 5. As a doctor, she sets up a field hospital in the middle of a battlefield between the Order and the Scoia'tael and is treating both sides indiscriminately. Scoia'tael members barge in her hospital and, after seeing that she is treating humans, try to kill them and her. After Geralt dispose of them, members of the Order enter the hospital. Shani tells them that they are late and that their help is no longer needed, only for them to start attacking her and her non-humans patients when they realize she is helping non-humans. Once again, Geralt deals with them, leaving behind a bloody mess in the middle of the hospital. At this point, a very shaken and distraught Shani says she needs a drink. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Massively magic-gifted Alvin becomes the mad human supremacist Jacques de Aldersberg through visions of a horrible future, warring humans and Otherlings, and involuntary time travel. That's left deliberately inconclusive, and Jacques stands as example enough without the connection to Alvin. You get a lot of clues though, such as Jacques's Hannibal Lecture using some of the expressions you used when talking with Alvin earlier. | |

Crapsack World | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Absolutely. Essentially, the problem is that almost no one has the capacity for empathizing with people outside their social group... and a lot of peoples' social groups consist only of their own selves. As an illustration, consider this: many monsters in the Witcher world are created through human acts of evil. For instance, echinopses grow in places where people were murdered, and drowners are the transfigured bodies of evil men whose bodies were thrown into the water. You will fight a LOT of drowners and echinopses in this game. | |

Azar Javed. This couples with a Bilingual Bonus and Prophetic Name — it means "Flame Eternal" in Persian. Yes, of course he's explicitly said to be drawing magic mostly from fire, but... What was that bit about Jacques de Aldersberg being The Chessmaster, again? Also, in real life, "Azar" would be an embarrassing name for a badass like that — it's a real, but female name. | |

It Will Never Catch On: Kalkstein mentions he has a theory that is effectively the basic concept of atoms; Geralt tells him to tell him about it later in a manner indicating disinterest, and the general consensus by NPCs is that Kalkstein is crazy. During Chapter III you can actually encounter another scientist character, and through studying certain in-game texts or just selecting the right dialogue options through trial-and-error, you can convince him about Kalkstein's theories. | |

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_372bc105 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: Very cynical. Idealist characters are few and far between, and even they are willing to wade through corpses if it should further their goals. It's not as if good things can't happen at all, but they tend to be on the personal level and few and far between, which makes it all the more sweet when something does go right. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable: Some sidequests (like Vesna Hood's sex card and getting the parcel to Coleman) become unwinnable if either die. As a lot of quests are imbricated into each other, there are some Guide Dang It! moments because not achieving some sidequests and main quests in a specific order or in a specific way makes a few sidequests unwinnable. | |

In fact, the final level consists of Geralt constantly doing this to the Big Bad's attempts to justify his actions. Before you fight The Professor for the last time, the Smug Snake lectures Geralt on how Witchers are unnatural freaks. Geralt can either debate him or tell him to shut the fuck up. | |

Heroes Prefer Swords | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_43555d33 | comment |
Heroes Prefer Swords: Enforced by the gameplay mechanics. Witcher combat styles are based entirely around the sword. While you can carry axes, daggers, spiked clubs and torches, they're not really of any use since assigning points to sword fighting styles makes using swords increasingly more powerful as the game goes on. There's also the fact that silver swords are more effective against monsters, making other weapons practically useless. | |

Stance System | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_44e013e4 | comment |
Stance System: The game features three fighting styles, each specialized against a particular type of enemy: Strong against slow, armored opponents; Fast against agile enemies; and Group against multiple surrounding mooks. Using the wrong style spells death quickly: strong enemies shrug off Fast, fast enemies dodge Strong, and groups quickly stun-lock Geralt unless he uses Group. These styles can only be used with swords, which renders all other weapons in the game pretty useless. | |

Humans Are the Real Monsters: Oh yes. You may think you've seen the scum of the earth when you've finished dealing with the zealots, rapists, murderers, and bandits in the prologue, but you haven't even scratched the surface. That guardsman trying to bust up a local drug ring? He's probably addicted to the same drugs and hoping to turn the situation to his advantage. That doddering harmless old man? He's even worse. That nun who sacrifices her time and energy to help dying plague victims, potentially exposing herself to the deadly disease for no tangible reward whatsoever? She eats babies. (Well, not really, but it wouldn't surprise you.) The phrase Humans are monsters itself appears very often. Usually in a conversation with Zoltan. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: While still a pretty great game, the rookie mistakes of the by then newly funded CD Project are clearly visible in the game's storyline. Many characters are just Expies or Suspiciously Similar Substitutes for book characters (Azar Javed for Vilgefortz, Alvin for Ciri, Triss' characterization resembles Yennefer's etc) and the storyline revisits almost every part of the books, while at the same time, they almost never talk about anything that happened before. The sequels gradually form their own compelling storyline, create independent characters and resolve old plotlines from the books. A more minor example would be the quest journal and character glossary. In the first game, both are written from Geralt's point of view, and are appropriately factual and dry. The next two games changed it so that Dandelion wrote them based on what Geralt told him some time after the fact. As such, they tend to be laced with his biases and sense of humor. The combat system is a bizarre mixture of classic CRPG combat and a rhythm game, in contrast to the more straightforward action RPG combat of the two sequels. | |

Potion-Brewing Mechanic | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_55f0e46c | comment |
Potion-Brewing Mechanic: Like in the novels, alchemy is an essential part. By harvesting plants and slain monsters, Geralt collects ingredients, and each ingredient contains one specific (Color-Coded for Your Convenience) alchemical essence. Hard-coded into the game are specific combinations of these essences that, if mixed in a specific order, create potions of specific effects. Geralt can learn these recipes from books and NPCs or discover them by experimenting. Some unique ingredients, usually obtained from quests, can even be mixed into mutagenic potions that permanently unlock certain bonuses in a form of Nonstandard Skill Learning. Rarely for a game, crafting potions takes time—at least an hour of meditating in a safe location—and requires a "potion base," an alcoholic beverage whose quality determines how many ingredients in total you can mix. | |

Magic Knight: Azar Javed is more than able to fight with a sword when his magic is weakened from fighting in a place of an opposing element. In fact, in a latter fight when he is at full strength, his physical power is his main means of offense, and he prefers to use magic only for stunning Geralt. Witchers use simple spells ("signs") in combat. Also, the first thing you see of the Flaming Rose grandmaster is a person in platemail throwing a fireball. | |

Kleptomaniac Hero: True to traditional RPG form, Geralt can wander into a home, rummage through containers, and take what he pleases. This is lampshaded by a few characters who will question him for entering their homes, and sometimes it sounds like one of the occupants is objecting when they're simply spouting an idle comment. There are never any consequences for brazen burglary. Only twice does a character object to Geralt entering their house, and these two are ones that Geralt actually has a reason to be allowed in (one has the occupant's daughter ask him to kill a monster in the basement, the 2nd has someone who explicitly invited Geralt renting the 2nd floor). Very rarely, however, is anything decent found by this; the best to be found is potion bases and common books. | |

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4 | comment |
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Dice Poker, in the initial version, was a cakewalk, with the AI often rerolling excellent scores or not rerolling absolute stinkers. Patched, however, it's a nightmare. Specifically, the computer has a built-in advantage by always playing last, which means that it always knows exactly what it needs to get to beat you (and can thus decide how many and which dice to reroll to best accomplish that). And with even a basic understanding of probability calculation, the number of times the AI beats you even when you have an advantage after the first throw (especially the higher difficulty opponents) seems not very believable. | |

Permanently Missable Content | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_6602cad | comment |
Permanently Missable Content: Every chapter is set in a different place and most NPCs are specific to them. This makes many sidequests impossible to complete once you reach a Point of No Return. While you can get the game Infinity +1 Sword Steel Sword after killing all of the Trophy Monsters, you can also get it by completing the dentist's sidequest in Chapter 3. The problem is that you need to give him a Barghest Skull, which can only be obtained in Chapter 1 (and most probably sold all their skulls to Abigail in the same chapter, since they're useless otherwise). Don't have any Barghest Skulls? You'll need to choose between either the Infinity+1 Steel or Silver Sword (assuming you did do the Trophy Monster hunts). In Chapter I, if you complete Haren Brogg's quest by allowing the Scoia'tael to take the weapons, entering Raymond Maarloeve's home in Chapter II enables a flag which triggers a cutscene when you enter the Hairy Bear tavern for the next time. In this cutscene, the Scoia'tael use the aforementioned weapons to murder Coleman, which obviously makes any sidequest involving himnote "Hot Potato" (started in Chapter I) requires to bring him a package, and "The Rat" where he is the quest giver impossible to complete. Visiting Maarloeve is part of the main quest, and Geralt starts next to his door once the Temple District becomes accessible in Chapter II. | |

Meaningful Name: Azar Javed. This couples with a Bilingual Bonus and Prophetic Name — it means "Flame Eternal" in Persian. Yes, of course he's explicitly said to be drawing magic mostly from fire, but... What was that bit about Jacques de Aldersberg being The Chessmaster, again? Also, in real life, "Azar" would be an embarrassing name for a badass like that — it's a real, but female name. Thaler. A fence with a money name. The Salamandra counts too. Guess which other organization has fire as its main theme. | |

A more minor example would be the quest journal and character glossary. In the first game, both are written from Geralt's point of view, and are appropriately factual and dry. The next two games changed it so that Dandelion wrote them based on what Geralt told him some time after the fact. As such, they tend to be laced with his biases and sense of humor. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_7335ffa9 | comment |
Grey-and-Gray Morality: Both the Order of the Flaming Rose and the Scoia'tael have legitimate goals, ideals, and grievances, which they go over painstakingly. But the Order is composed of fanatical nutjobs whose ideal of protecting people is killing every non-human in sight and they are secretly working in tandem with Salamandra, and the Squirrels are terrorists who end up killing many more civilians, which just makes life harder for the very people they profess to save. In the cutscenes, Geralt explicitly reflects on the fact that he should never take sides. Salamandra, however, is pretty much explicitly evil. If you side with the Order of the Flaming Rose, you'll find that several of them really do follow the ideals they profess. In this story branch, the conflict ends with a civil war between the good and corrupt factions. Conversely, side with the Scoia'tael, and you'll find that there really isn't much more to them than meets the eye. They're arguably less "dark" than the Order to begin with however, so it probably equals out in the end. | |

Story Branch Favoritism: The game splits into three distinct paths mid-game, one for the Order and the Scoia'tael and a neutral one. The latter features more content and is actually harder to unlock. This is justified by the eponymous Witchers' code, which forbids them from taking sides in conflicts—so the neutral path makes the most sense in-story. | |

Conservation of Ninjutsu | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_82f5ced1 | comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: The 'group' fighting-style is more effective when used against a group of enemies than a lone opponent, and by more effective, "It's easier to get multiple enemies into a range it can be used than it is to fight them one on one without it". Played straight somewhat by design, as the Group style carries an inherent critical chance that will be applied on every single opponent within range. Because of that, you can usually find yourself in a situation where one second you are surrounded by a large pack of mobs, the next all of them drop dead instantly from the critical strike that the style dealt out. | |

Super Hero: Bizarrely enough, a guard officer turned into a werewolf hunts thugs as a Batman-esque (without gadgets) vigilante by night. This is even lampshaded by Geralt, who quips something like "The secret base of Vincent the werewolf - he thinks he is a superhero?!" (Don't ask how he knows what a "superhero" is). Probably from the same source Dandelion learned about cognitive dissonance, Breaking the Fourth Wall for Dummies. Considering that terms like "genetics" and "mutant" get thrown around often, it's pretty clear that the world has plenty of anachronistic aspects to it, probably thanks to magic and alchemy. Why shouldn't there be superhero fiction in a world with real, superpowered Witchers? | |

Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_8d6c8737 | comment |
Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence: Seen in the opening cinematic, Geralt is a rather flexible and agile character capable of parkouring his way over high walls. In the actual game, he can't climb over a cart or a couple of barrels. Extremely painful to see in at least around the encounter with the Werewolf, when there is only one way to get out of the area that is in no way apparent when there are open roads in plain view, and in the swamp where you are cut off from the Mage's Tower, which is magically sealed anyway by overgrown vegetation despite your character carrying around two swords and likely axes or hatchets as well, not even counting in signs Aard and Igni — again leaving you only one route to get to your destination. In a game that generally is very lenient on how you go about things, this is very jarring when it comes ahead. | |

Take a Third Option | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_950bbfa7 | comment |
Take a Third Option: A number of opportunities throughout the game: The biggest decision in the main plot allows this. In the course of the story, several dialogs stat that Geralt will have to choose a side in the incoming war. He can eventually ally with the Order or the rebels, but he also can actually remain neutral. The developers do seem to favor certain quest choices, though. One of the more obvious examples of this is the quest Ripples. There are three resolutions to this quest: siding with the vodyanoi, siding with the villagers, or the neutral path of siding with the Lady of the Lake. Siding with the vodyanoi rewards you with a sword that's not particularly great and can easily be found in abundance later. Siding with the villagers gives you something that can be sold for a pretty decent amount or given as a gift, but at that point you won't really need it. Siding with the Lady gives you a sword that is both unique and quite nice and a skill point. Given Geralt's True Neutral personality is canon, though, giving the neutral path the biggest reward might be justified. | |

Loads and Loads of Loading: The Witcher is particularly infamous for this — though the Enhanced Edition fixes this... except with the quicksaves.

Event Flag | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_99fe88e1 | comment |
In some cases, you can take more time before setting a plot event in motion simply by putting off visiting a specific location. Assuming you allowed the Scoia'tael to take Haren Brogg's goods in Chapter 1, you may want to steer clear of Raymond Maarloeve in Chapter 2 till you've met Coleman at the Hairy Bear Inn and finished his quests. This is because the game triggers Coleman's death the moment you step foot in the detective's house. There is also the party organized by Declan Leuvaarden in the beginning of the third chapter (which is a critical point in the plot: it is supposed to happen in 6 p.m. the first day, but will be infinitely delayed until Geralt goes there, even allowing to complete most of the chapter other quests before. Declan even seems to be throwing a new banquet every day during all of chapter 3, as Triss will spend all her evenings there and only return home at around 4 in the morning. | |

Hyperspace Arsenal: Zigzagged. Geralt actual stash is invisible (his armours don't seem to include pockets or backpacks, except the small strap in which he can store a few potions for quick access) but it only contains tiny items (food, potions, books, scrolls, alchemical ingredients, etc). The bigger items (weapons, armours, and trophies) are carried in special item slots and actually appear on Geralt ingame; they can't be put in the stash. The fact that items put into storage at one inn can be withdrawn from any other inn is never explained. | |

While still a pretty great game, the rookie mistakes of the by then newly funded CD Project are clearly visible in the game's storyline. Many characters are just Expies or Suspiciously Similar Substitutes for book characters (Azar Javed for Vilgefortz, Alvin for Ciri, Triss' characterization resembles Yennefer's etc) and the storyline revisits almost every part of the books, while at the same time, they almost never talk about anything that happened before. The sequels gradually form their own compelling storyline, create independent characters and resolve old plotlines from the books. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Early in the game, Vincent makes a cryptic comment about the moon. Later in the game, it turns out he is a werewolf. Also the Salamander itself. It is also a mythical creature commonly associated with fire. Can you think of any other organization with a name consisting of a reference to fire?. Possibly doubles as Fridge Brilliance. Likewise, in the first chapter, the priest agrees to help you to some degree because there is apparently a passage in his scriptures that describes you and the current situation almost exactly, and suggests a course of action. After finishing the game, think about who's in charge of the church at the time, and how and why that passage would exist. There's some foreshadowing of the Interface Spoiler variety early in Chapter 2. Did you notice your monster-detecting medallion going berserk when you're in Raymond Maarloeve's house? | |

Also the Salamander itself. It is also a mythical creature commonly associated with fire. Can you think of any other organization with a name consisting of a reference to fire?. Possibly doubles as Fridge Brilliance. | |

Sheathe Your Sword | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_b2226c2f | comment |
Sheathe Your Sword: The game's intro, which is a retelling of the first short story from the books, has Geralt mostly dodging and, most notably, not using his silver sword against Striga!Adda. When forced to face her late in the game, simply dodging until the candles burn out instead of killing her earns a Golden Ending for that questline and nets Geralt a unique steel sword as a reward. | |

Nice Day, Deadly Night | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_b2ceabcd | comment |
Nice Day, Deadly Night: The Witcher has a day-night cycle, and while some monsters roam out in the open during the day (and they become worse at night), the vast majority come out at night. This is especially noticeable in the first act, which takes place in and around a small village surrounded by woods, but happens even in Vyzima, a capital city, later on. | |

Trauma-Induced Amnesia: NPCs speculate Geralt lost his memory from either a Near-Death Experience or, more strongly implied, because he's Back from the Dead. In the sequel, it's revealed that he gave his life for Yennefer and that encounters with The Wild Hunt can cause madness or amnesia. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: It's often painfully clear that the original script was not in English, and the voice acting doesn't help. The Enhanced Edition is better about this. Thaler's name is an example of the trope in the French translation. It is a Meaningful Name, he is a fence having the name of an old European money. In the French translation, he is named Talar, which is the Polish word for it. It is especially strange, as the word "thaler" exists in French too. | |

At least one sidequest in the game is actually a Timed Mission unbeknownst to the player. Specifically, during the chapter 2 quest "A Long Way from Home" if you decide to leave the swamp while the quest is active, then the quest will fail and all the woodcutters will die. Well, except Yaren Bolt, the lone survivor, who will now be mighty pissed. Do note that Yaren tells Geralt that it is an urgent problem, so at least the game gives you a warning. | |

Broken Bridge: Typically for a story-driven RPG, there are lots of straightforward examples. A subversion stands out, however - there is a literal broken bridge in Murky Waters. An NPC is busy repairing it, there is a quest to help him, but he won't finish it nor make any measurable progress before you leave the village in the other direction. When Geralt asks the builder what's on the other side he says it's nothing but fields and meadows. Even if the bridge was fixed there would be nothing of interest on the other side. | |

Intoxication Mechanic: While Geralt doesn't drink for fun, most of his alchemical concoctions are alcohol-based (and many contain additional ingredients like hellebore, mistletoe and wolfsbane), so drinking too many of them puts him in an intoxicated state, characterized by distortions in the game graphics, as well as his character model swaying randomly side to side when walking. Fortunately, this only lasts for a short while (justified by the witcher's enhanced physique). | |

Shout-Out | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Detective Raymond Maarloeve. In the dialogue right before the boss fight in Chapter 1, one of dialogue options is "Go ahead, make my day." The story of an alchemist named "Alfred Nabel" who invented an alchemical formula that could blast through granite for mining purposes. Other people quickly realized that it would also be very effective in warfare, and he committed suicide, burning his lab as well while mages kept the secret from spreading. Many more shout-outs that will be completely lost to people who don't know Poland well. Adam who, as Celina puts it, suffers for millions is a direct reference to Adam Mickiewicz, while the conflict between two sisters with raspberries in the background is a reference to the poem Balladyna by Juliusz Słowacki. Both poets are main representatives of Polish Romanticism. At the beginning of the Epilogue, Radovid and Foltest are discussing their course of action. Radovid says he'll provide "fraternal assistance" to Foltest's forces, which Foltest rapidly and quite angrily dismisses, saying that the term "fraternal assistance" somehow rubs him the wrong way. In real life this term was routinely used by the Soviets in regards to their Eastern Bloc subordinate states, while the nature of the "assistance" was suspiciously akin to "we send them our coal, and in return they take our sugar". No wonder most Poles were rubbed the wrong way by the term. A suspiciously-familiar theory about the Holy Grail being a woman is attributed to one Bronze Dan. Its delivery also makes it a Take That!. The Lumberjacks in the swamp will sometimes discuss their love of pressing flowers and going to taverns dressed as women. The boss of Chapter 4 is Dagon, a Physical God straight out of the Cthulhu Mythos. The Bestiary entry for which begins with That is not dead which can eternal lie; and with strange aeons, even death may die. One of the fighting styles learned during the Prologue is called "Temerian Devil". Appropriatly, this is the fighting style made to fight against groups of enemies, especially with circling sword blows and wirlwind attacks. | |

Take Your Time | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_cfd569ac | comment |
Take Your Time: Wander and grind as long as you like; imminent destruction merely awaits Geralt to instigate it. When reaching Chapter-ending quests, characters will drop hints that now would be a good time to 'take care of anything you need to' before proceeding. At least one sidequest in the game is actually a Timed Mission unbeknownst to the player. Specifically, during the chapter 2 quest "A Long Way from Home" if you decide to leave the swamp while the quest is active, then the quest will fail and all the woodcutters will die. Well, except Yaren Bolt, the lone survivor, who will now be mighty pissed. Do note that Yaren tells Geralt that it is an urgent problem, so at least the game gives you a warning. In some cases, you can take more time before setting a plot event in motion simply by putting off visiting a specific location. Assuming you allowed the Scoia'tael to take Haren Brogg's goods in Chapter 1, you may want to steer clear of Raymond Maarloeve in Chapter 2 till you've met Coleman at the Hairy Bear Inn and finished his quests. This is because the game triggers Coleman's death the moment you step foot in the detective's house. There is also the party organized by Declan Leuvaarden in the beginning of the third chapter (which is a critical point in the plot: it is supposed to happen in 6 p.m. the first day, but will be infinitely delayed until Geralt goes there, even allowing to complete most of the chapter other quests before. Declan even seems to be throwing a new banquet every day during all of chapter 3, as Triss will spend all her evenings there and only return home at around 4 in the morning. | |

Special mention should be given to the King Of The Wild Hunt at the end of the game, who lists out the negative consequences of EVERY SINGLE ONE of your major game choices. He also conveniently forgets to mention your decisions that actually made lives better for people, such as Vincent and Carmen, the vodyanoi and the residents of Murky Waters, and Princess Adda and King Radovid. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_d63a5b3f | comment |
Irrelevant Importance: During Act I, bad luck with the random encounters code can cause the subject of an Escort Mission, a barmaid named Vesna Hood, to be killed by barghests between her front yard and her door, after Geralt has finished escorting her, and also after she's thanked him in a cutscene for walking her home and possibly arranged a discreet rendezvous later on. If this happens, she never appears for said rendezvous, and you can't collect her sex card. | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_e2d7ce08 | comment |
Basilisk and Cockatrice: Basilisks and cockatrices feature as monsters in The Witcher and The Witcher 3, where they are classified as being relatives of wyverns. Notably a cockatrice is the target in the only storyline-relevant trophy hunt in the first game. These basilisks and cockatrices lack the ability to petrify enemies, an ability the codex states is inaccurate folklore. | |

Whole-Plot Reference: A number of situations from the game are retellings of short stories and plot points from the books. The introduction cutscene is basically retelling the first story in Witcher lore, "The Witcher". Chapter 4 could be described like "Cthulhu Mythos meets Arthurian Legend meets Polish literature classics". | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_e41a9801 | comment |
All Women Are Lustful: The medieval European stereotype of all women being The Vamp is in full force in the game's The Dung Ages setting, and many of them do live up to the stereotype. (A minor villain goes on a misogynist "all women are evil succubi leading men into sin" rant while riling up a mob to Burn the Witch! who ironically kicked a man in the groin earlier for trying to rape her.) | |

The Witcher (Video Game) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Azar Javed from the game is a thinly veiled Expy of Rience, henchman of Vilgefortz from the books. Their backstory is pretty much identical — both went to the same school of magic and were kicked out for their shady dealings. Same goes for Professor (Magister in the Polish version) — his behaviour and speech patterns make him a shout out to a minor villain from the saga, and in the English version he ended up with an identical nickname. | |

Walking Armory: Geralt can have up to five weapon slots. Three are for "big" weapons (mainly Silver and Steel swords), and one or two "small" slots for a secondary side weapon. Only one weapon for each slot may be carried at a time, and all of them are stowed visibly somewhere on Geralt's body. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_ecb70eb4 | comment |
Videogame Cruelty Potential: A particularly nasty example early in the game can have Geralt sleeping with a young, sexy witch with the promise to protect her, only to hand her to an angry mob who kills her a couple of minutes later. The "Dogcatcher of Vizima" sidequest requires Geralt to kill six wandering dogs in order to harvest some fat in their body. The problem is that dogs aren't hostile at all (unless provoked), so the easiest way to complete the quest is to coldbloodly attack harmless creatures (which grant a ridiculously low amount of experience points). There actually are ways to complete the quest without Geralt killing them himself. The fat can be bought from some merchants, found in houses or rarely as loot from Salamandra assassins. As you have two chapters to complete the quest, it's fairly easy to get the 6 you need just by looking for them casually. | |

True Neutral | |
The Witcher (Video Game) / int_f55e0154 | comment |
The developers do seem to favor certain quest choices, though. One of the more obvious examples of this is the quest Ripples. There are three resolutions to this quest: siding with the vodyanoi, siding with the villagers, or the neutral path of siding with the Lady of the Lake. Siding with the vodyanoi rewards you with a sword that's not particularly great and can easily be found in abundance later. Siding with the villagers gives you something that can be sold for a pretty decent amount or given as a gift, but at that point you won't really need it. Siding with the Lady gives you a sword that is both unique and quite nice and a skill point. Given Geralt's True Neutral personality is canon, though, giving the neutral path the biggest reward might be justified. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Alvin is a powerful Source who carries the Elder Blood who randomly uttered the Prophecy of Ithlinne, who is a catalyst for Geralt's growth as a person, who has a magical "accident" during his training with Triss involving a destroyed shed, and is sort-of raised by Geralt and (canonically) a sorceress... making him Ciri from the novel series, except somehow all this development is shoved into a few months or so (maybe) instead of close to seven years as it was in the novels. He even ends up time-traveling and is wanted by the Wild Hunt like Ciri is. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: There aren't many choices you can make in this game that seem to have an unambiguously good outcome, at least from Geralt's perspective. Those that are, however, are always choices that require you to intentionally take a harder path: for instance, saving Princess Adda requires you to fight her and keep her busy for all of an in-game night without killing her. | |

Suicidal Overconfidence: At the end of Chapter I, if you side with Abigail. Knowing that you are a skilled fighter who just killed the monster which plagued the village for quite some time, and that you are probably high on potions, a group of villagers attack you.

The Power of Friendship: Depending on Geralt's actions and solutions during the first game, several characters will come and aid Geralt in his time of need. Examples include Vincent, who aids you against Salamandra soldiers if you cure his lycanthropy; Siegfried, who vouches for you to the guards if you teamed up fighting the cockatrice; Zoltan, if you side with the Scoia'tel, becomes your wingman through burning Vizima; and a few characters may appear during the endgame in de Aldersberg's vision, such as your love interest, Adda, and Celina. | |
