I always felt that Geralt *can* indeed cry, he's just unable to shed tears. I think it's the fault of the mutations - teary eyes make it harder to see and a Witcher needs their sight, after all. But when he's in emotional pain you can see it on his face. It's not that he "doesn't know how" to cry, he just physically cannot leak from his eyes. (FYI there are real world genetic disorders that prevent people from being able to shed tears. Neat side note.)
I also saw the disgusted Ciri face when Geralt chose to take the money. i just wanted to be funny but then realized further in the game that it is one of the important choices for the destiny of Ciri in the game. 😬
Dude the facial animations were absolutely legendary for 2015 and will go down in gaming history; its so good it even looks good now! It literally took years for industry to catch up
I absolutely love how much intensity the game picks up after finally finding Ciri on the Isle of Mists. The game really does hit the ground running at that moment in the story so much that it's so difficult to stop the main quest to side ones.
Been 5 years since I first played this game and the moment Geralt embraces Ciri in disbelief and pain is truly the most heart-wrenching moment I've had in gaming. The despair he showed, holding himself back. The way he cradles her like a child while swaying back and forth, almost like comforting her "I'm here now, be at peace". Even after when Geralt just stands there looking at Ciri with an unbroken smile, it just adds to how much Ciri means to the witcher. Gorgeous depiction of what they mean to each other honestly.
Words cannot describe how much I love the father daughter relationship between ciri and geralt that scene where he found her and thought she we dead just for her to hug him was brilliant and probably my favourite in gaming history

@@karlobasil8493 it's a correct point of view but in my opinion there are some games which have so many details that you can never discover in one or two run. If you just want to discover all the endings in the Witcher III, you will have to play four run and you can always try new builds with signs, or only with melee or potions. Ovviously there is also a strong personal subjectivity in this discourse but personally I don't even have the possibility to buy lots of games so I've developed the tendence to spend lots of hours and run on the games I have. With Bloodborne I spent over 500 hours!
I noticed not much time ago that the some of the most beloved games in the industry have a Father / Daughter relationship in its history, i wonder why? its not a problem for me because a enjoyed a lot that games its just i have that question. The last of us, The walking dead, The witcher 3 by example, I read Bioshock have it too. Could be the feeling of being proud seeing in who became the little girl, maybe its satifyng see her how good she manage in a cruel world ?. I dont think its because they are girls that need a man, in fact, in those games the girls aren't weak characters, they just were born in tough worlds.
I think I have read that some video game developers had children at the late 2000s or early 2010s and wanted to make a game that reflected that experience. The funny coincidence was that more than one developer had the same thought at kinda the same time.
I think father/daughter relationships are the purest and most protective sort of love, and one that everyone loves watching. I’m a young gamer, and I much prefer a paternal relationship than a romantic. I guess those relationships are stronger, and leaves so much scope for scenes
Geralt says he can’t cry he doesn’t know how after versemirs death. Yes this may be true but after ciri left to her biological father I think I he had an idea how it was done
Just realized at 18:20 she talks about a dark tower in her dream and how she tries to enter it and then sees geralts face. She is talking about the tower at the end of the game, right?
I never read witcher and never played witcher1,2 either I been playing witcher3 for 100hrs but never know ciri is not geralt’s biological father until second play through
I wonder why they never implemented characters talking during a walk or a stroll... nobody just stands straight like a wooden block...But they will finally do it I'm sure...
There was no fast food before. Everyone moved on foot or on horseback. They trained. Those people lived on the move. Their physical condition was much better than that of humans now. And the food was natural.
