The Witcher 3: Attempting to solve the mystery in Winter White Orchard (Empress Ending), where several peculiar objects show on the map. It appears that the Winter White Orchard was once intended to be an alternative intro to the game, based on choices in the Witcher 2. There's even an unused dialogue with Emhyr related to it.

I just kind of wish they came forward and spoke about everything like this that came to mind. Who cares if it was scrapped, if it didn't work, or whatever, it's still really interesting to see their thought process and some alternative lore we could've had, no reason to hide any of it It could even make for an extremely interesting "the making of" video, focusing on the writing itself instead of on the animations, voice acting and similar stuff

It's not exactly what they hide, otherwise the moders on PC would never find content cut from the games by digging through the game files. Most game studios don't reveal these things because the "beta" of the games they keep to themselves in files on company PCs.

The problem is, not only could those ideas probably be reused in another game, expansion, ect, hence their reluctance, but their NDA probably prevents them from speaking about it, and even if it doesn't, they might just be erring on the side of caution, just in case. After all, content they made for the game doesn't belong to them, and that means that unless the studio itself decides to talk about it, the devs probably can't.

Yeah, this! A thousand times this! I think some people either forget or never knew because of how great and successful the Witcher 3 turned out to be that before Witcher 1, they had NEVER made a video game before ... EVER! They started in 1994, but only distributed video games made by other studios and translated already made games into Polish. In the mid 2000s they started work on a Baldur's Gate game, but that was scrapped due to the funding company having financial issues. Then they moved to The Witcher. Which lets be honest, it was a neat game and awesome concept but it was not exactly great in it's execution. Then they made Witcher 2 after having got their feet wet and did a fine job on that. Then, decided to take on one the most insanely giant open world dynamic role playing games where things change based on player choice ever conceived ... just mind boggling really.

Now that i've just finished The Witcher 2 for the first time, i realise just how much we're missing in The Witcher 3 with Iorveth missing entirely, and Roche doing little more than a glorified cameo. I feel like so much more could've been done with the latter alone, let alone the both together. It's incredible to think that there is so much to The Witcher 3 and that it already takes almost 200h if not more to finish entirely, and yet so much is missing at the same time. This titbit of new dialogue is interesting, it really ties into the previous game, and well, when you have Charles Dance as a VA, it's a criminal offence to hear his voice so little in the game. Especially considering how Emhyr only appears in TW3 despite being an overarching character/antagonist of the whole Franchise and that the whole of TW2 is essentially a giant game of chess, and Emhyr's the one moving the pieces. Maybe it was meant to be part of a quest that would've delved a bit more on the possibility of Roche being in contact with Nilfgaard to negotiate and secure a future for a free Temeria as a vassal of the Empire. Because coming straight from TW2, Roche cooperating with Nilfgaardians sounds rather out-of-character. I wish we knew just how much though. Iorveth, some Roche content, any kind of follow-up regarding Aryan la Valette other than a brief appearance of his mother, Saskia and the events of Vergen, all the cut Nilfgaardian content, etc...

Listening to Emhyr muse about the death of Foltest, however brief it was, kind of makes me wish that that they had included a separate scene with him and Ciri in the game. It could have been a cool opportunity to show another side to his character, like his moment with Ciri in The Lady of the Lake.

It may not be related but one thing I noticed. The Sword of Destiny trailer has a three interesting parts, 1st is Nilfgardian army walking through forest in what looks like a winter and 2nd is Geralt walking towards Emhyr while he is sitting on a throne. The 3rd is the Wild Hunt burning down a village. The very first Witcher 3 debut trailer has Geralt standing infront of burning village. Maybe this was all part of a storyline that was scrapped including this winter location and maybe the first time you would meet Wild Hunt was in White Orchard.

In relation to the cut dialogue, I think somrthing similar should have replaced it, to further show the darker side of Nilfgaard, I believe Witcher 3 doesn't do that enough for Nilfgaard and makes choosing their ending an easier choice than the Radovid or Djikstra ending.

Thanks for talking about alternative Prologue. Very few people knew about it before you made this video! I should also give credit to user Flipper444 and his source in Poland who knows a ton about the cut content and have helped the BiA team a lot. Just a few points. I think they scrapped the alternative prologue because they didn't want to spend the time and effort making something that only the small subset of people who played Witcher 2 at the time and imported a save would ever see. I presume that the regular White Orchard would've had the cultist plague stuff at one point too before the whole plague questline was scrapped. Regarding the infected peasants in Velen, they actually were set to spawn at what was once a field hospital labor area next to the Devil's Pit. However this is now just a field of Nekkers. MerseyRockoff(credit to him for the restored Emhyr intro) decided to move them to Mulbrydale so that they would make a bit more sense in the current version of the game. Thanks for the great video!

@ Most of that content is rather minor stuff though, not remaking the entire map of an area sized content. And it would have had to be 3 different intro sequences not just 2 - Rescue Triss, Help Natalis, Save Saskia - so likely when they realized how much work the second was they scraped the plan to have your choice of ending in Witcher 2 affect the intro of Witcher 3. The harpies suggest this winter option would have been the "Save Saskia" intro as this is Iorveth unique (and the Iorveth path is the one with the harpies) and it leaves the North in the worst possible position : Henselts army is gone, Saskia is running an independent state with a strengthened Scoiatel, and the mages have been decimated. I think (?) the one ending the settled on is the Help Natalis one, as the sorceresses are on the run and Roche is your best bud. It would be interesting to see the alternate Novigrad under a Rescue Triss ending. But that would have been a ton of work.

The whole demon thing is very interesting and peculiar at the same time. Demons are quite rare in the Witcher universe and can't recall them ever engaging actively without humans doing something so maybe this plague thing is a result of a contract gone wrong or something, maybe like O'Dimm? Wonder if getting the empress ending while having started HOS might turn up something although it shouldn't considering the whole intro thing but who knows. Anyway I was hoping to see Iorveth in this whole mess somehow or maybe even Isengrim but alas

I believe the text mentioned her landing in a dock area where rats were heavily present, she jumped spheres but a flea rode back on her clothing, hopped off upon landing, and spread its infection through the land.

I do think that the committed section of our Witcher community is second to none. I do so enjoy seeing various people coming together to help solve mysteries that the game has thrown up. Eight years later and there's still things being found. There can't be many games with this type of longevity. Sure, you can say Skyrim still has a loyal following but I'm not aware that secrets are still being found in the game after 12 years or for that matter after its first 5 years.

Thank you so much! I loved this video. I think it's understandable that CDPR decided to keep the game easy to acess for completely new players. Still, I also think it's a little shame and do fondly remember preparing about 12 different versions of TW2 saves with detailed descriptions of my steps before TW3 was released. I was so mind-blown after TW2 how different the two paths in the game are designed that I was sure this would continue even further. I was a little bit disappointed when it then had so little impact. A disappointment I recovered from in no time when I realized what an absolute masterpiece TW3 was. But in your video I notice again how my mind also digresses "what could have been". A dream that remains - it's fun to fantasize further. Thank you so much xletalis!

Sometimes content is scrapped because it was a bad idea to begin with, but later devs will find another reason and rarely admit the truth. It would make sense that in the Iorveth path Temeria will fall faster and with less resistance, if you don't help Nathalis in Chapter 3 of Witcher 2. Then the meeting with Yenefer can happen sooner, but Gerald and Yen will have to wait until spring to start the main game, due to too much snow. There may have been a whole section of Gerald and Yen reconnecting before the start of Velen, and some Velen events happening sooner or not at all.

I presume the axe Emhyr calls for is not for the man’s execution but to chop down the tree. If the gardener’s to be executed he’s more likely to hang. But the tree seems to have some special significance-but this is Nilfgaard now. Silly Temerian customs will no longer grace a royal court.

Imho the "Axe" didn't really mean axe - Nilfgaardian (and elder speech) is based upon celtic languages (I think the Welsh especially) and "axe" is Germanic word that's not used in Welsh or Irish for that matter (according to translator at least)... I think that it was meant to stop Guardman talking to the gardener. Also the "This is Temeria now" could have been directed to both the gardener and the guardsman (he was the one calling gardener Temerian, no one else spoke about Temeria before). For the guardsman it meant "he is subject of the empire and you are gonna treat him as such" and for the gardener it was "now you are gonna do things as you are told to, not as you were used to"

Great Video. It amazes me how much (cut) content can still be found in the Witcher 3. It's really interesting how different the potential opening is to the existing one. I feel like the existing one could be Iorweths path in which he and and other elfs just left the continent to escape the coming war. Whilst in the other opening which would be Roches path which could take place during the time when Radovid attacked Kaedwen (how it's told to us by ambassador var Attre in the existing opening) someone who tried to stop the advance of the nilfgaardian army opened the devils pit and let the plague loose. Therefore the entire game could have played out differently and without the nilfgaardian influence. Or it could have let to an ending in which the nilfgaardians lost the war for sure.

Can we all agree that the best thing is that the love and excitement to dream big and push past ones ability isn't really a fault. Many of the problems become charming or loved in time. Its amazing how big the quality jump is and how much they were able to stuff in. I just made another post talking about how much wonderful content they have available if they just bring everything up to the quality of 3 and its an old game. Hopefully switching engine's will mean the whole thing is redone. 1 and 2 will get fleshed out and brought to the quality of 3 and 3 brings them together in something truly epic with choices really making a difference. Blood and wine could be fleshed out and maybe the part about mutagens could become a major story and stand alone and connected to the school of the car. Its amazing they put people who cared enough anywhere near enough money to get what we have. I want to see if there is anything decent in season 3 Netflix but I will wait for several months to make sure I don't support it. That's why what you do is important. Its easy to avoid something bad to send a signal. There are a lot of things that might be good or have something new that triggers the corporate mindset to go in anew direction. If we want more things like the Witcher we have to make it known there is interest and money. You can even see it with the Witcher that there is a worry of anything that might be to complex for the unwashed masses. The more we can do to show a market the better hopefully. Then hopefully we can find people who care to make it.

Aw maaaaan Charles Dance was amazing as Emhyr and they cut out conversations with him?! That line about if he actually dances on the graves of his foes/no one ever asks him that is so good!

Another great deep dive into the game. With the success that Witcher 3 had, I can't really blame them for not wanting to link Witcher 2 choices to the original version. It would've been great though to include it in one of the updated versions.

Dont know if you ever found this but if discoverd that you can see the dwarf (fabian) that gets killed by pricilla’s attacker (the vampire) in the mission pyres of novigrad. You see him talking to his brother who you encounter in the mission. Thought it was cool so had to share it with you. 😁

I wonder if there are additional details between those corpse piles in the southern end of the Velen map and the Devils pit quest. Haven’t been there since before the next gen update. I doubt it though. Still one of my favourite locations because of how disturbing the environment is there. Lighting piles of corpses on fire (nearly twelve) and the smell.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Devils Pit was designed with all those NPCs as ghosts and you have to use the lantern to see them. Like in the tower of mice quest where you gradually learn what happened etc.

So interesting! Always makes me sad that Iorveth and any implications from the Witcher 2 were taken out of the game

If I had to guess, the decision to cut Yorveth entirely, probably came quite late in development relatively speaking

I too am disappointed by the cut content for Witcher 2. That being said, I completely understand why CDPR kept the references of other Witcher stories to a minimum. If you rely too much on things from the first 2 games and books, it can put people off from buying and playing your game. Having never played Witcher 1 or read the books prior to playing 2 and 3 for the first time, any references to those events flew way over my head. I even had to look up a few Witcher 2 characters because I forgotten who they were. It wasn't a deal breaker, but I did have to shrug those moments off and hope they weren't important to the story. It was only after watching a playthrough of 1 (that gameplay is just not fun for me) and reading all the novels, I was able to truly appreciate everything the game offers. Having been on both sides of the coin, I can see how someone walking into Witcher 3 completely blind would have been completely turned off if the game continuously played back to prior events. Many new players may walked away and Witcher 3 only has about the same success as the first 2 games. Making it available and approachable to everyone is why it has become the huge success it is. I know diehards can be annoyed when things are streamlined to expand to a wider audience, but CDPR made the right call on this one.

It was a good decision from a financial point of view, but it made the game's story worse. We could've have something much more mature and closer to the Sapkowksi's book. And this chance will never happen again.

Not sure if you’ve touched on this before in your things you have missed, I don’t remember seeing it. But in Toussiant there are a couple dead guys in dangerous locations with a love note from “belle de gunness”. This is a play on Belle Gunness a Norwegian American serial killer who would take out insurance policies on her husbands only for them to have “accidents”. You can find one of the guys in the cave where you get the feline sword manuscripts. I remember seeing another one near a nest of giant centipedes also.

Iorveth and Saskia were sidelined hard. It seems like CDPR really had the intention to include that whole path but they couldn’t figure out how to combine it with the Ciri/Wild Hunt plot. The game ended up being a masterpiece anyways but imagine how great it really would’ve been if they stuck with the original vision. Perhaps they can make up for all that in the Witcher 4. Maybe we can get Iorveth’s help against Guanter O’Dimm.
