Witcher 2 Triple Trailer Reaction

[@GlizzyPrinceChristian]

his name is letho and his nickname is the kingslayer he's actually gerult's former friend turned assassin and even though he doesn't remember him he tends get little bit's of memory back one at a time and the main story is a story about justice and revenge. So i have a recommendation here. THE WITCHER 2: ASSASSINS OF KINGS All Cutscenes (Roche Path) Game Movie 1080p HD by Gamer's Little Playground

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Thanks for the recommended cutscenes to check out 😀

[@Bbbbudddd]

The girl=> Saesenthessis, commonly known amongst people as Saskia the Dragonslayer or the Virgin of Aedirn, was a dragon with the ability to take on the form of a human. She was a key player in the battle of Vergen and depending on the outcome, queen of the independent realm of Upper Aedirn. She was the daughter of the famous golden dragon Villentretenmerth and the green dragon Myrgtabrakke.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Very cool 🤩

[@franciscomartinlopez6916]

The assassin of the last trailer, Letho, is a really cool and scary character, and this is not because of him being a very big man or a really skilled fighter, but because he is one of the smartest antagonists that Geralt has to face in the witcher games 😎😎

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Brawn and brains. Scary combo 😰

[@labret2]

He isn't so scary in Wither 3. Geralt with his memory back is much better fighter than him.

[@wafflehammer4725]

The Archer missed his first shot because the mast of the boat came down and shattered the deck, otherwise I feel he could have gotten him.

[@flatstheflounder338]

and even then it wouldn't have mattered, I mean what is a feeble arrow against a truck such as Letho?

[@wafflehammer4725]

@@flatstheflounder338 I like to think Letho timed it, and took the impact into account. After all, at the end of the game we simply talked it out over vodka and went our separate ways. So he's clearly an intelligent dude.

[@BM-wf9uf]

The reason the archer started missing all of a sudden is Letho is a Witcher like Geralt. So he would have been moving super humanly quick.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎👍🙂

[@Blackbeard069]

That's Letho of Gulet, also known as the Kingslayer. He's not really a villain, like most things in The Witcher, its way more complicated than just black and white. He is a Witcher from the school of the Viper, Geralt is from the school of the Wolf.

[@Yutani_Crayven]

No, he's definitely a villain. Attacking kingdoms and kings that did nothing to him, all in the name of another, not even for himself. You may say that there are some redeeming facets that can be brought about/revealed, that may make him into a bit of an anti-hero. But he's most definitely a villain.

[@WolfODonnelfan]

@@Yutani_Crayven Funny that you call him an "anti-hero, but definetly a villain". If anything he is an anti-villain, not an anti-hero, as an anti-villain is described as 'a character who plays the role of the antagonist in the story, but who does not have the typical traits associated with a villain.' which fits Letho to a tee. An anti-villain is the opposite of an anti-hero, whereas an anti-hero does the right thing for the wrong reasons - an anti-villain does the wrong thing, but for a right reason. Letho assassinated the kings of the north so that Nilfgaard would have less opposition when invading the north, leading to a shorter war and more civilian lives spared in the long run. So calling him an anti-hero just proves that you don't understand the very definition of the words that you like to use.

[@Zolwiol]

Man... 15 years doesn't feel as ancient as it used to in gaming. Things looked good enough even back then to still impress now.

[@RaixsOreh]

I bought this game a few years ago on sale but I only got around to playing it this year. And this is a game whose story is heavily ompacted by your choices. If you ever get to playing it or watching it, i just think you need to keep that in mind because certain plot points will NEVER get explained if you only play it once. You only get the full picture of the motivations of certain characters, the fate of others in a complete playthrpugh with the different branching paths of the story.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

That makes for great replayability 🙂

[@Steinwaechter]

One of the best video game trailers ever. Letho was such a cool antagonist.

[@1.618-o2y]

The fact someone hires a witcher to kill the King, the head and music at the end, epic.

[@kelvinswanepoel7278]

He is letho of gullet a witcher from the school of the viper geralt came a across him and saved his life from a monster.long story short the emperor of nilfgaard promised the witchers from the school of the viper that if they assassinated all the kings of the northern realms that he would rebuild the school of the viper and so letho and some of the other witchers of his school became assassins.(When geralt saved letho,letho and some of his brothers from his school traveled with geralt to help him save yennefer from the wild hunt).

[@GreenOfFields]

I don’t know if you guys take suggestions or if this is the proper place to do it, but the games Styx Master of Shadows and Styx Shards of Darkness have great trailers, plus SoD has hilarious game over screens where the main character pops up to berate you for killing him. Could be worth a reaction video.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Always take recommendations and this is the perfect place to put it 🤗🙂

[@Moricant]

Witcher 2 has since been overshadowed by Witcher 3 but it is still a great game.

[@syncdom]

I don't know about that, the thing I liked about Witcher 2 was that when it came to the various endings they were actually good or bad but in Witcher 3 the bad endings came with even worse results than in 2 and in the case of the good endings even in the best scenario no one comes out of it physically or emotionally unscathed.

[@RimshotKiller]

@@syncdom I mean, it's the witcher. There's no room for a happy -ever-after in this universe, that's a big part of the charm of it.

[@Yutani_Crayven]

Felt like you had more freedom and your choices had more meaning than in Witcher 3.

[@The_Page_5_Chronicles]

I own Witcher 2. It's hard to play. The controls

[@RimshotKiller]

@@The_Page_5_Chronicles Like all the witcher games, imo, the Witcher 2 is just poorly balanced overall when it comes to difficulty. In the beginning I remember it was quite harsh, then somewhere around the 2/3 mark the difficulty felt just right, and after that it was incredibly easy. Same experience as I had with the Witcher 1, although it took me a bit longer to be completely overpowered there. With the Witcher 3 they managed to change the difficulty in that in the beginning it felt quite good to fight, and shortly after that it was really easy, so idk. I'd love for them to fix that in future titles :D

[@dagonofthedepths]

Fun fact: a lot of war bows of that time had around a 150-pound draw weight. So assuming that's true here, yes that is extremely impressive, and that dude is jacked.

[@youngprince7820]

Love this game. I've played it before.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Oh nice 😀

[@digitalsicario]

Awesome video! I think I'm might reinstall Witcher 2 and 3 I think that WItcher 2 & 3 are a must play! the stories, the various charters from new to old/creatures, the combat/different builds and how each and almost every single quest/side quest has some moral dilemma to it and not just "good ending" or "bad ending" to the quest its you see the out come from a moment later or hours later. Love the gear and various schools of armor and weapons to be found and made, the 2 dlcs for the 3rd are awesome so i recommend you pick up the gold edition or complete to get everything.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Witcher 3 we are for sure playing at some point. It was up in the air if we played 2 or not 😅🤔

[@digitalsicario]

​@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames going through Witcher 3 they talk about past events that were in 1 & 2 and have returning characters that i knew nothing about, so it is worth it to try two or just jump into 3 and work backwards.

[@Patte-chan]

And here I thought, the fact that _The Witcher 2_ has three launch trailers ("Disdain & Fear", "Hope" and "Love & Blood") would lend itself quite good to the format. Sadly we only saw one. 😉

[@Patte-chan]

[@jeffreymoespot5402]

So the Assassin guy isn't actually a villain. He's definitely an antagonist in this game, but he's an old friend of Geralt and he has his reasons for doing this

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

An antagonist with good justification is always more interesting 😁

[@cstains5543]

Yeah, Letho is not a villain so much as a pawn in a power struggle. Yes he's killing kings, but he's sort of offered something he can't really turn down for doing it. In fact he's a good ally to have in Witcher 3 if you save him in the Witcher 2. Letho of Gulet is a member of the Viper School of Witchers, a nearly dead Witcher school, and he is offered a chance to rebuild his almost dead order if he does kill the Northern Kings. So rebuild your order if you succeed or be the last until you breath no more. It's one of the running themes in the Witcher series of games. The witchers are slowly being wiped out. Killed by monsters, murdered by the folk they save, often short changed by those that don't just outright try to murder them, fewer in number every year with almost no training schools left. a dying way of life where you sometimes walk away from a witcher who has done something horrible because the people attacked him first.

[@skebaba918]

It's dying because there's less & less OP monsters remaining in the world (because back when the mages created the Witcher upgrade mutagens to convert Humans into em, they did a damn good job I'd say, when comboing w/ mages themselves, i.e melee units to the ranged units that are mages of varying sorts), and thus people are less willing to actually agree to the Law of Surprise payment, especially over time as rumors & slander increase

[@cstains5543]

@@skebaba918 That is part of it. There's not so many major threats anymore so there's less need, but the other side can't be ignored. They are being wiped out as well. Not by everyone, but look at the witcher novels and games. Geralt, who is among the most famous of witchers, has been repeatedly attacked by mobs of townsfolk often for little or no reason other than him being a witcher. The fact that witchers are also being killed by different orders and religious sects and many of the schools have been attacked by different people also has a lot to do with witchers disappearing. School of the Wolf for instance did have a major siege at Kaer Morhen. The School of the Cat was almost entirely hunted down, in part because several members also worked as assassins, but whether someone did or not they also got hunted.

[@riastradh]

Shooting someone with a bow and arrow is hard enough, let alone the facts that the person you’re shooting is a whole *witcher* who can probably knock your arrows out of the air if he wanted, the ground underneath your feet is unsteady and yeah pressure is probably high

[@tylermcgriff1183]

I would highly suggest playing the Witcher 2, then the Witcher 3. The Witcher 2 is basically two different games based off of choices you make. Watching videos on it and not playing it yourself just doesn’t do it justice as you might make drastically different choices than whoever you watch play. The best part is you can import your save into the Witcher 3. It doesn’t change a ton but you get different dialogue options based on your choices

[@Tominion]

I recommend watching the official trailer of the game (The Alters). You can have a good laugh too 😁

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎👍🙂

[@bastiwen]

Witcher 2 is still my favourit of the franchise even if Witcher 3 is objectively a better game. I just think it's really good.

[@TwoSevenX]

Letho of Gullet, Kingslayer is a witcher. or more accurately was a witcher that of course that can never "unget" the skills he has literally had burned into his DNA. Geralt knows him well and they have quite a history, though both have actually lost much of that. Like the Witcher 1, there really is no one single "bad guy"... other than good ol Nilfgaard wanting to quite simply rule the entire continent, and the emperor thus hiring/coercing/blackmailing the absolute worst human beings born to accomplish this, though they don't know this, and him not caring what happens after or how his designs get accomplished. Adding to that, the Southern Kingdoms are still very much trying to stab as many of their neighbors in the back as they can, which leaves Geralt in a pretty messy place at the start of the game. In that same vein, there are no "correct" paths to to take. While Witcher 2 is WAY more linear than Witcher 1, there are still a ton of choices and ton of consequences. This game is also much less forgiving in "bad builds" and not learning the combat mechanics and at the time was the level of difficulty was quite controversial. Many years and patches later things are much more evened out. The three woman of the trailer are Triss Merrigold of course, Saesenthessis-Saskia the Verdant Dragon of Aedirn, and Ves the Blue Stripe. Saskia has a REALLY complicated issue in the story and Ves is LITERALLY the woman your mother warned you about, and even her commander steers her a wide berth.

[@Jack_of_Blades_1980]

Letho of Gullet is a great character (villain), but what is evil? In the witcher games you start to wonder what real evil is... 🤔🧐

[@stupidlizard4764]

He is one hell of warmonger. His actions and words led to destruction of power balance of North kingdoms, turn them on each other and made this for Nilfgaard to go through with ease when it's time for another war. Only to be flipped by the emperor with his promise at the end. I quess Letho is pretty damn good as a villain, as he with couple of friends basically made the grounds for Witcher 3 great war

[@Bloodsekeers]

Watch Diablo 2 ressurected cinematics! highly recommended

[@milosh2690]

Letho is one of the most original enemies in Witcher series, firstly because he looks like freaking badass, secondly 'cause he's also a witcher but from enigmatic unknown witcher school

The villian is not a villian. Hes just an old friend who has taken a job, just like geralt takes a job. Thats my opinion at least, which can play out in the witcher 3.

[@dagonofthedepths]

Eh he's still the primary antagonist. If you're going off of who your able to sympathize and side with by the end of the game, then no character is a villain. Fact is the main goal of the game is to hunt him down. Everything else going on is kind of secondary to Geralt outside of that objective. Besides, he did try to kill you regardless of your choices at least once.

[@grevensher594]

@dagonofthedepths if you save Letho in 2, you have am easier time saving lambert in 3, argualbly essential if one is a goodie two shoes who hates regicides and naughty witches. 🤷‍♂️

[@dagonofthedepths]

@@grevensher594 That still doesn't mean he's not the antagonist or a villain in 2. I mean he was instrumental in starting the war in 3. He was part of a group whose main job was to commit regicide, he was working for Emhyr var Emreis, which the Nilfgaardian Empire is the "bad guys" in 2. As an antagonist, he is either directly or indirectly responsible for all of Geralts conflict in the story and is the solo motivation (player input allowing) for Geralt's journey. By literary definitions that makes him the 1 constant antagonist of a story. Gotta remember being a villain or an antagonist doesn't mean the character doesn't have complex motivations or in the case of antagonist, that doesn't mean they are the bad guy.

@@grevensher594 That's a poor excuse and does a disservice to Letho. He's not an idiot, he's intelligent enough to know what he was getting involved in and he's not a court solider. It's juxtaposed with Foltest wanting the same for Geralt who recognized the trap for what it was. Letho
