Witcher 3 🌟 BLOOD AND WINE 🌟 The Unseen Elder Vampire 

Gerard Ferrer bcs they turned out to be elves O dimm is the best villian hands down

"Turned out to be elves" That was never a secret

Wild hunt would wreck the crones

very true, especially Gaunter that guy was giving me nightmares, one of if not THE best villian in history of games.

Gaunter O'Dimm is the best villain, because he stalks you right at the beginning of the game, when you ask him at White Orchard for Yennefer. Then you don't encounter him directly until the DLC. And then when you complete the DLC and do Blood and Wine, you pick up references of other stuff that happened in the world because of him. The spoon Wight from the "Spoontaneous Profits!" quest in B&W was cursed by "a mirror salesman". It's just genius story telling. 3/4 of the players didn't even remember talking to him at White Orchard when HoS came out...

How amazing would it have been if the Elder suddenly turned out to be a complete pussy going " ohhh the humanity, will nobody think of the children!?".

Cero Ashura now if it were vampire children then he might act,but anything else just gets on his everlasting nerves

That was a stupid choice in deed

Lolololol

Ketevan is only to show he speaking more

yeah :D Wishful thinking

The ignorance of Vikings!

It's the same as the 3 bandits who believed that they could take on someone who just slashed a wyvern to its demise effortlessly.

"How you like dat silver?"

@@JayJay-wf2oe kinda like the bandits in Skyrim that try and mug you after slaughtering all of skyrims population and a dragon with the nickname “eater of worlds”

if you played Witcher and read all dialogues then you should have known that same questions were asked by duchess or her general ( don't remember ) and the witcher responded that neither garlic nor silver can't kill them, only other vampires, you can damage them seriously but in order to kill it's essential to be a vampire itself.

And then he pulls out his Monsters deck with Higher Vampires and summons like 10 at once and in the next round he pulls the Elders card. GG. WP.

@Abu Troll al cockroachistan Not a vampire that powerful. Vampires like Dracula cannot be killed by the usual methods. There are about 13 steps that are a nightmare to go through. Maybe your standard vampire. Not an Elder or strigoi. Those things are damn hard to kill. Not even cutting his head off would finish the job.

@Abu Troll al cockroachistan lol liked just for that awesome name. Made my day

Bro, this dude was really powerful

I don't think he was afraid, agitated maybe? I know I wouldn't have been scared in that instance, he simply asked not to ask, but to speak. Simple. I think Geralt realized that the Elder could be reasoned with.

+jacobdot456 I sensed more fear than agitation though I'm referring to the initial attack when it looked the Elder was about to kill him and Geralt let out a desperate "wait..." To no avail. He would have died right there to if not for his Witcher metabolism

jacobdot456 You wouldn't be scared of a millennia old vampire who can move faster than you could blink? And who, based on what we saw with Detlaff fight, also has an even more powerful form?

***** O'Dimm may be far more powerful, but Geralt appeared to have less fear of of him. This might be because O'Dimm can be reasoned with far easier. It was only because Geralt was a witcher that he was even able to speak to the vampire, and that was after him nearly dying.

speaking of Gaunter, who is he exactly, a powerful demon or the devil?

yeah geralts one weakness is cutscenes if I could've fought him in game he would have his ass eaten faster than he could blink

@@RussianBear42069 couldn't have said it better myself.

I think that option was only put to show you how stupid you are, to be thinking of ever fighting it, after everything they told you about him... I think Gerald wouldn´t dare to say that in reality

@@RussianBear42069 you gotta be out of your damn mind if you think fighting an elder vampire is a good idea, if this vampire was inspired by World of Darkness Geralt would never stand a chance against him

@@gilpita Witcher aren't trained to fight vampire ?

OMFG LOL

LMAO

Finding an NPC that doesn't play gwent

Being outside during a storm (dammit...)

@@eleutheriakouin Unless that NPC who does play Gwent is O'Dimm.

**smiles and nods**

Elder : beats you in gwent and kills you with your own deck lodged in your ass after.

Gains the Unsen Elder hero card 50 points and burns every card that's on the table, including yours

waoww man thats good quality of the youtube comment section.

*Activates quenn*

Geralt dies **reset** Unseen Elder: what...what is this?? Geralt: I have come to bargain.

I've just had the same idea, watching this sequence not for the first time. He makes the same argument: you'll lose your peace.

Doormamu 😂

lol

I mean he got rekt in like 3 seconds or something? Id do the same too.

Especially that "no.....wait"

@@UAGoWSuplexer K kiddo.

@@UAGoWSuplexer Lmfao try to be more original little guy.

Yeah lol

Now every single vampire is after Ciri

yes

But all I get are Whore-son Juniors. T.T

@@JohnDoe-pc1qf Trueee kekw

Higher vampire bro? Fuk yea

but few wants to be someone's Regis

lol

Geralt: "Up for a round of gwent?" Elder: *Nods*

*ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED*

Although if you lose, he kills you.

He does axii on the unseen

Apart from being a great character.. He has immense potential to make a whole damn show series or a game series.

In the books Yennefer asks Geralt who he was and Geralt answers with the likes of the most human being of all

Me and him have something in common 😂

Talk about social anxiety.

Well, it’s hard to appeal to anything else when talking to a being that chooses getting sealed in a cave for centuries over a minimum of interaction with the new world he has to inhabit.

That's not what convinces him. He listens when Geralt says that, it's a valid point to him, but what tips him over to helping is Geralt bringing up the fact that the hunters will eventually flood the caves or destroy them altogether, which is something the Unseen Elder actually cares about. Without knowing, Geralt hit right on the money, the one thing the Elder wants above all else is to go home, Regis hints it's why he's here, waiting, getting a few smells and bits of air from the other side from time to time. The mere possibility of the gate being harmed is simply unacceptable to him, hence why he frees Regis immediately after Geralt says that.

Branden Long the ultimate bro

the homie

Branden Long the only vampire I like.

He is the best, especially in the books.

@@KotsarisGR Yea, he even died(?) for Geralt...

but if you show up there without Regis he just insta kills you...

I agree. It’s not their fault they were thrown into a world of what to them are animals that are so base to them that they literally didn’t know what deception was before. (Regis states that Dettlaff knew so little of human nature that deception was a foreign concept to him). The Elder is most definitely a character deserving of sympathy. Live 1500+ years grieving for the loss of his home; pack, loved ones with the door shut to him and a daily reminder.

all he wants is to go back home, there's nothing evil in that plus i read that witcher universe vampires don't need to drink blood in order to live, blood is like wine to them, drinking too much and they get drunk but they can live without it

You mean empathetic

- GreeN - Sympathetic characters are ones that warrant our sympathy. So in this case he is a person who lives a sad life and is biologically immortal so we as players give him sympathy.

I love that the Unseen Elder gargled Geralt's own blood back at him

I edited that in :) If you ask again he kills you

@@xLetalis I see..

@@szymongrabarczyk3561 i know it's been a year but your comment is hilarious 😂😭👌

@@xLetalis oh shit really?,🤣🤣🤣

LOL

people who choose that option are the super nice people in real life.

Humans aren't food to him. In the Witcher universe higher vampires (and I believe its safe to call this guy a higher vampire) don't need to drink blood to survive. Rather, Human blood is like alcohol to them.

@@qarcon3247 are guess you are not one of them, boy

@@tiffles3890 blood is a drug for them. The higher Vampires are all home sick stronger then that they all have different ways to deal with that. Detlev creating a family of lower creatures. The unseen Eldar dreaming of home. Regis before becoming friends with Geralt and co drinking blood.

I mean I might be pissed if someone starts messing with my bread.

Nah, she doesn't have the power to open the gate. It would have to be one of her descendants.

She could teleport with him though. Like she did with Avahlac. And Geralt.

She got way more powerful now who knows what she can do. We only see a glimpse of her powers in the game, infact the hunt wanted to use her to not just open a gate. but to BE one.

Maybe with ministers of court...

your forgetting something ciri said she teleports by thinking of the place she wants to teleport to and closing her eyes and shes there, hard to think of a place you never been to don't ya think. Most likely she would need travel to a world through a portal like avahlac before she could just teleport there though its just a theory as they don't go into to much detail in the game about how it works. but proof that she just cant up and go to any place/world without having been there before can be found in the conversation when geralt finally finds ciri she says at one point when almost caught she teleported to the first comfortable place she could think of skelliga. Also would be no need to open the gate to the world where the white frost is if she could just teleport there anyways.

indeed!

"King of the vampires" lol, he's at most an normal noble class in his world, notice how only an small number of vampires crossed over? I doubt the strongest vampires were among the small number of vampires that got unlucky, I bet the "unseen elders"(at least the 3 of them) are normal level, and the higher vampires are their servants, note how the elders can basically control them

I too chose to go to the land of thousand fables ;)

Aniket Maurya Same, I think it is a better quest but a shame you miss the elder

BeautyIsJustAMask yeah and by going to fable land I saved both sisters and killed Detlaff whereas I now think Syanna deserved to die.

+Aniket Maurya huh when I went to the fable land both died.

+Aniket Maurya huh when I went to the fable land both died.

You'd be smug too if you can stop higher vampires with just your thoughts. That dude probably can't even remember the last person that stood a chance at actually killing him.

Well atleast you are right fit for a Witcher

He doesn't sound smug. He sounds like he wants to be left alone. If anything he sounds like every word he's saying comes at great pain, like Regis said.

Doesn't have to kill anyone to approach him.. if he's really that powerful just take them out of the cave

People are assholes. If he only takes them out of the cave, they will keep coming back.. Death is the only solution for his solitude.

Witcher 4 material. I mean there are monsters not even witcher as can deal with But ciri is a omnipotent god like being so I’m pretty sure a very pissed of elder vampire would be a good match for her. There are probably more of them somewhere. A invasion of them could be a pretty good reason to be able to play as ciri. Say 5-10 years or more after the events of the witcher 3 when she is much more experianced. Or have her helping the vampire ma get back to their realm is another worthy cause for her.

Yeah but she needs to know where she is going or take a random chance. Randomly finding the vampire world out of all of them is unlikely so she'd need to first go there before teleporting vampires. So she'd need avallach to find some door for her which he has no reason to do and may not even by able to do. If he can and will do it then they need to survive being there for long enough for ciri to teleport them out. Once she's done that then she can teleport the race at least hundreds strong, but possibly thousands, one by one to their world. That is unless the elder only cares about himself but then ciri may want to take them all anyway cos she's nice. Or she has to have a kid which would be super powerful and able to do it in one but would ruin her witcheress dreams for the next almost 20 years. I also doubt she'd want a kid after all the trauma she went through as one. So as cool as 'the witcher 4: ciri helps vampires' would be (I mean that sincerely) it doesn't seem to be possible to me, or at least in the way you suggested.

@@antonhallergren588 Uh no. Ciri's only power is being able to navigate throughout worlds. She doesnt control space/time, only uses it very well. Similar to a captain of a ship thats crossing the ocean. The captain obviously doesnt control the ocean...

@@jasoncruz19800 no but she's like infant levels of her actual powers in TW3.

@@jasoncruz19800 She would be capable of controlling space and time tho. This is stated. She just hasnt mastered her powers well enough yet. By the time of the battle of Kaer Morhen she was already capable of teleporting at will to places she knew and at this point she was regarded as an absolute amateur (and thats putting it politely) in regards of her powers.

indeed

Wish I could see it

Yep. This guy is douchebag for chosing the other option. Regis sacrificed a lot for Geralt sake and he wont aknowledge that

cuz he said .. I hate question .. so u must ask only 1 question ! anyway .. u will die many times if u instant to answer your questions x)

“Care for a round of gwe-“

fair enough

I agree with you but Elder is scary but I dont think he will ever top O'dim. They are very similar in the way that they are so powerful enough to kill you before you blink. But O'dim powers go beyond physical and so he could probably teleport you to a world of suffering and make you immortal so that you can suffer for ever. O'dim can make " death is not the worst thing that can happen " a reality but the most the elder vampire could do it probably kill you. But what makes it scarier is that he doesnt do it but you know he can.

TRUEEEEE

I, on the other hand, think it's perfect. The Wild Hunt is not a tremendous supernatural force, but rather something a very competent witcher with many powerful allies and the support of the world leading's superpower can kill. They aren't even close to the top of the food chain in the Witcher's multiverse. You have ancient creatures a witcher wouldn't go hunting for all the gold in the world, like higher vampires; then you have the guys the higher vampires are scared off, like the Unseen Elders. And finally you have Gaunter O'Dimm, which may as well be a god. And the Crones, which... What the fuck are the Crones anyways?

You don't realise that Eredin Bréacc Glas & The Wild Hunt were already very much established in the books and to a lesser extent in Witcher 1 & 2. So "keeping them as mythical figures" would not make any sense at all.

Yellow Money “Glowing Trix” 😂😂😂 id say it looked more like a rice krispy treat to me

Sorry to disappoint you but if you press the jump botton before falling Geralt makes a roll that allow him to survive 5 foot fall.

@@lordsoth0374 Yeah, I figured that out as well. Still doesn't cancel out the fact that Geralt has to perform a recovery roll just to not die from landing on his own two feet after only jumping from a height equivalent to a set of basketball court bleachers.

@@TheWriteFiction If he was a normal human I would even find normal that he has to roll to don't break his knees because he is old the problem is that he's a fucking witcher a mutant he even defeated a bear and a troll with his bare hands.

God mode ain't shit against the Unseen Elder. Not even hacking in G O'D in there will save you. What a savage fuck.

Gaunter would bite his Apple and the Elder would incinerate lol

RU-vid Hero Only a higher vampire can kill another higher vampire. I imagine the stakes are raised even higher with an elder vampire. Gaunter O'Dimm is powerful, a demon or devil of some sort I'm not sure, but I doubt he could kill him. His ability to suck out souls is limited to humans anyway.

+Spash 1098 More likely that he is "a" Satan of the Witcher universe rather than "the" Satan. I'm sure there are more powerful demons out there. Could be wrong though.

+Spash 1098 Is that an assumption, or do you actually have definitive proof that O'dimm is the only one of his kind? *There are multiple **_gods_** in the Witcher 3 universe*... why in the world would you assume there is only one kind of O'dimm Higher Demon/Devil/Elemental/? If you have some definitive proof that explicitly and absolutely states that O'dimm is even more unique than deities, then provide that evidence.

Not even regular animals, but just ants and roaches...

@@mylesyamada7633 bUt He CaN ConTroL TimE HeS a DeMoN

Yes, I love how much of an impression the Unseen Elder makes even with his short time in the game's story.

I hate him

True. Funnily, this also means the ending where Dettlaf kills Syanna and Geralt lets him go is not the worst one, because it's the only one where Regis is not forced to fight and kill his friend and the only one where he leaves Toussant by his own volition.

I was waiting for the player to chose “for you” and then just said “idunno” 😑

@@gamingdisastercayla Regarding the angle Geralt is choosing in this playthru it is the most fitting answer. It is likely that they will not convince detlaff once he is summoned without Syanna and the will have to fight and kill him. Something Regis absolutely has no desire to do. So, it is not really (or only) to help his friend. It is again that geralt wants to be a Hero. Something the cynic he has become can´´t admit. He does not want glory anymore. He wants to do the right thing and does not see himself as a hero(something that does not exist in his worldview anymore)

I knew some edgelord would write this...

@@Raoul9753 yeah cause being introverted is so edgy

Simon Su we’re not so different, you and I....

I am sure there is a way to defeat the unseen elder, maybe Geralt doesn't k ow about it

@Dankina , the only way to defeat unseen Elder is with the help of Gaunter O'Dimm. But then Geralt owes Gaunter a service again to fullfill wishes so that Gaunter is able to take a poor persons soul.

​@@pablito4762if not outright owing him his soul. Depends on what price Gaunter demands

@@jefferycrouse4652 , exactly

​@@pablito4762 Might not be the only way. He must have a weakness but he doesnt know about it yet. He doesnt have to defeat him in any way fortunately

Exactly, you can't fight a non physical thing.

Not really, he can't meddle with fate.

Jtrato Gietzsche Learn grammar?Lol

Denam No he can do whatever he wants,he is literally the god of the witcher universe.For those who say that he didn't kniw about ciri's wherabouts should watch that last piece of dialogue between him and geralt a handful of times to finally realize what he was meaning by that. If he truly didn't know where she was,how come he gives geralt the exact recomended information necessary to save her from her death.That means thayt he knows what the future really holds and he's just making matters hard for geralt.After all,for o'dimm delivering all the answers to geralt would be anti-climactic and not so fun for him to enjoy.

well ciri can accidentally go to other worlds shes never seen but not specific ones on purpose. Still, she probably could work with the elder to bring him home. When they talk about how hard it is for the mmonsters to live here and how it physically pains the elder and he lives there just for a scent of home, hoping to get back. its really sad

would he belive him though? "my daughter can travel to other worlds, she can take you home" "and i'm secretly the king of tousaint - what do you take me for human? now *die*" attempt 2: bring proof of some kind ciri shows up with some otherworldly being, or even Regis to vouch for her elder: very well, i shall see if this is true of her abiltiies *ciri tries to take him to his home, but dosent know how to control her powers, accidently takes him to the same place she spent the last few years hiding from the wild hunt* "well....now you die and i rest in a new place until the gate opens once more" *kills ciri* attempt 3: trying ciri again "very well, i belive you. now take me to my home or all of you will die...except you, regis, *sleep* after that ciri would either take him to his home or he would kill the lot of them except regis who would now sleep down there with him until the gate opens again - wether ciri or geralt would take him up on his threat and send him home or try to bargain "no, thats not the agreement, deal with detlaff first" the eldar made it clear he thinks of none-vampires the same as rats "i do not negotiate with cattle or swine"

He would have sucked ciri dry the moment he knew about her

​@@nickreynoso1329but there was a portal there once that would let out a faint scent of home every so often. Which is why the Elder lives there. In theory Ciri's blood could reawaken the portal long enough to pop the Elder through.

He’d probably still kill them all anyway just for bothering him

Yup, I hate that people really think that Geralt is some kind of allmighty demigod. Bruh, these people really think that game mechanics are part of the story, and he can beat Gods while eating some bread to regen.

it's darth sidious

more like Dracula, in the form of Count Orlok. With the gravity reversion being inspired by the 1992 Dracula film

is it possible to rescue syanna after going to see the unseen elder? I want to be able to do this quest (cause its cool) but i also want to explore the fairy tale land. Is it one or the other or can i do both?

nope

yes, when you speak with the Unseen Elder, you are only allowed to make one mistake, after that he will kill you, i find that cool :) , here in the video, the witcher makes as many mistakes as he wants with the Unseen Elder

indeed

@ Or just converse with the Elder with no other motive than to talk? I mean, O' Dimm is exciting and all, but he can't just always be running around left and right, taking souls.. Right?

@ Still a better answer than all of these Know It All's, who just yell "Gaunter O' Dimm is god because of his initials and his power is unlimited". Haha

O dimm: Soooo.. would you like to make a dea- Elder: gods! For the last time no more questions!! How many of your infernal spoons must I throw away before you'll leave me peace?!? O dimm: oh I don't know, how many do you think it will take? Elder: .... I should have taken that favour from the Witcher. O dimm: you know geralt too? Elder: *steals spoon and throws it deeper into cave

O'dimm keeps talking ad infinitum while the elder bangs his head on rocks

Don't forget he can sense you when you are somewhere else so... Doesn't matter if he's home or not.

yeah voice acting in general is top notch

me too, could be my favorite from the entire game ;]

Well, you either do this or that

oh sure
