"I could secure you a comfortable position as court Witcher" *Foltest PTSD

[@xLetalis]

yes!

[@LeutnantJoker]

@@xLetalis To be fair I liked Foltest. He was a bit like Geralt "no bullshit tell me what you really think", and he never punished Geralt for telling him the truth. he was brutally honest about what could go wrong with his daughter and he fully accepted that and even told Geralt he had permission to kill her in self defense. He, Roche and Thaler were the reason I ran around in the Temerian set a lot and wanted a good outcome for Temeria. Of all the realms it was the one that treated Geralt with respect. And after W2 I kind of thought I owed Foltest one.

Thing is from a performance point of view it's not worth it. In order for his face to collide with the collar, they have to make a hitbox for it. If they do that then there should be also a kind of cloth simulation for it as well. It makes sense for Yen's long dress and for the Ursane armour because the cloth part is bigger and it's going to be far more strange looking if it moves like cardboard. So when they can save you performance here and there they do and that's the consiquence.

[@Frikgeek]

"Some unknown individual" Doesn't quite work if Ciri is the successor to the emperor of Nilfgaard. You'd think people would recognize her or something.

[@Papadragon18]

You're forgetting something... This wasn't a time where people had access to TV and computors. The only way to actually recognize the person would be having actually seen the person before, either directly or in some painting, or through their regalia(Which I really doubt just anyone would be able to recognize). So unless BB has seen Ciri in her capacity as Empress, there's no reason for him to recognize her. And even then, she'd probably be propped up in formal clothing and dresses. If she's arrived without any distinguishing clothes and without a huge escort, it's not strange if she's not recognized.

@Happines With less S I see what you mean but just to clarify for others who haven't read the books: There's a fake Ciri that has been brought to Emhyr and Emhyr knew this but didn't reveal it to others because he was hunting dowm the real Ciri meanwhile. So technically she isn't an empress in the books nor a typical witcher. She's simply using her witcher and magic skills to prevent getting caught or using it to escape.

[@crazadave]

Fun fact in this ending Ciri questions her choice in becoming empress ( 2:35 ) whereas if she becomes a Witcher she says she doesn’t regret becoming a Witcher at all.

[@xLetalis]

indeed

[@saltycat662]

@empty I believe she's meant to be take over and become Empress too. It's very clear she isn't a Witcher and I never understood that choice. That's what the devs wanted but her purpose was to rule and heal her broken land from her evil father.

[@spronkthesprinter273]

I still think emperess ciri is the best/intended ending as it’s the one that requires the most setup and particular dialogue options chosen, where as the other endings are achieved in many more ways. Also ciri being emperess can control the path that nilfguard takes and bring her own values, that is if she is actually making decisions or whether that’s just mainly emihr. And I don’t know if I’m missing something but ciri could always just leave and become a Witcher anyways.

[@Josuegurrola]

All options are acceptable. I feel Emyhr is not bad its a political animal but deep inside he allows Ciri to chose Geralt and Yen as his parents. Btw he regrets a great deal his pact with Vigelfortz and the death of Pavetta. Game Emhyr has the voice of Tiwin Lannister so people tend to juego him for that. I feel 🙈 jeje Nearly All his militar movements are actually an excuse to find Ciri in a metodical way. Even his movement on Skellige is a partial one (in the game) its not a total invasion just plain support for Ciri versus Wildhunt.

[@AxleTrade]

Ciri accepting her duty as empress and questioning her capabilities is her being mature enough to know that she should improve herself for everybody's sake. Ciri being a witcher means she never stopped being that kid in Kaer Morhen and basically took the easy way out to live her childhood fantasy.

Play all the endings before commenting about them. The choice you explained doesn't even directly lead to the Empress ending it could also lead to the Tragic/Dead ending...And get this you can refuse the gold and she'll become Empress. There's no selling out by just going to Vizma it's only if you take the gold if you're an asshole and that's a point towards Tragic ending which you need three of. Anyways it's the Witcher ending where her fate is decided by Geralt, It's the Empress ending where she gains the freedom to decide for herself...Just because you disagree with her choice doesn't make it bad.

Now thinking about it, I think Empress Ciri ending is logically the best ending of the game. Imagine what someone so powerful AND good at heart with so much experiences in life at such young age would bring to the world. She could actually be the hope for the continent of peace, prosperity and coexistence.

[@rollercoaster478]

This ending is definitely better than ''tragic'' ending where Ciri dies. And it really depends on your perspective on what is better for Ciri - Empress or Witcher. Life of a witcher is thankless, poor and depressing. You're essentially homeless, its not a good life, but Ciri might be happier that way, since she enjoys the action. The ''bittersweet ending'' where she becomes an Empress is far safer and better in contrast. She might not like it as much, but she can use her influence as an empress to do good in the world, to improve the lives of millions in the Empire.

[@JayJay-wf2oe]

with the witcher ending, it's kinda better for Geralt's well-being cuz Ciri can spend more time accompanying him. While with Empress ending, Ciri has more choices (she can either stay Empress if she likes it or just disappear from the throne with her power to do whatever she wants) but it's worse for Geralt since he doesnt even have Yen/Triss now. But i guess he still has Dandelion so.... But then again Dandelion has Priscilla.

[@Olivia-W]

@@eldara3 Safe... maybe, she'd probably live and be able to handily dispatch assasins. For the other things- politics are... they wear people down. It takes a certain kind of individual- likely with some traits of psychopathy- to thrive in the cutthroat and formal environment of high stakes politics. I would hate living in that world. There is _nothing_ that would convince me to become a politician. Conversations have triple meanings, there is an unending amount of paperwork, people are plotting against you as a rule, and good deeds will not go unpunished. You are forced to attend parties, pretend you aren't falling asleep and the performance isn't making your ears bleed, and smile at people you want to strangle. The stiff nature of these gatherings is grating- once on a stadium in the highest VIP section people were just sitting there, politely clapping, as the entire stadium roared and cheered. Stiff, smothered, regimented, poisonously polite and fake. Apparently it makes you a great actor, though, if you do emerge with your morals even a little intact. If I were Ciri, I'd rather _die_ than come even within a whiff of being Empress... Oh, yeah, I also forgot to mention the blood hounds that is the press. I like to go about my day in peace and not have to slink around because people recognise me. Also, since Ciri would be Empress, she'd pretty much be chaperoned or have a guard _everywhere_ and _all the bloody time_ outside of her personal quarters. Ugh. I could hardly stand to have a _driver,_ much less an entire staff.

[@CepbIuLOL]

Ive chosen Empress mostly after seeing how people in Velen suffered. The new Empire will need a good peaceful ruler who can restore normal life, or even make North thriving like Toussant. And Ciri is a perfect candidate, with advise from her father, ofcourse. Plus she will secure peace with Skellige.

[@Wolcott]

Wish there were more dialogue options and not only two. But I'm pleased to see that Ciri is happy, despite the sad ending in Witcher 3. Doesn't make me feel bad about taking her to the emperor after all. And if becoming court witcher meant staying with Ciri, I would've said yes.

If you're honest with her about your opinion (which for canon Geralt would be recommending her not to go) she doesn't want to go. And it's strongly hinted that this is the wrong ending and the Witcher ending is canon, she even says she's considering to not do it despite getting the empress ending.

I've been wrestling with it ever since I got the Witcher/Yen ending and felt it was too clean and fan-servicey. Read through the rest of the books and Emhyr ends up coming out as someone who might have the capacity to truly become a better person. I mean if Ciri has the strength to forgive him for the murder of her mom and grandmother in order to achieve a greater good, maybe that will inspire him on a path of redemption.

School of Wolf witchers (when Vesemir was alive) spent their winters in Kaer Morhen (well if they could make it in time). Sole reason that they cant live settled in a place is as same as Kaer Morhens destruction. Wizards, Witches and Witchers (and sometimes non-humans if they arent living among their own) get looked like freaks, (which is why Witch Hunters a thing) and started to get hunted. So they cant settle in somewhere because at some point people will want them dead (also magic users and Witchers does live a lot longer than their races normal person)

[@boxofx2023]

My Ciri always becomes a witcher. No matter how many times i play the game.

[@manofsesame3024]

You can still make her a witcher even if you take her to Emhyr. Just make sure Dijkstra (or Radovid) lives so the black ones get defeated then she is not becoming the Empress no matter what.

I picked the heroic pose with the Griffin. It hangs in a prominent place in the house. I also got the pouty child Ciri painting and hung it in the guest room to pester Ciri when she winters at Corvo Bianco (witcher ending). Plenty of other paintings though, installed mods to make Corvo Bianco nicer and more decorated. Tapestries, more painting slots, cool shit all around.

[@noa_zeus]

Ciri calling Emhyr Papa? *this is some serious heresy right here*

[@owlnemo]

Strangely enough, this made me glad that I got the Empress Ciri ending. The way she talks about it, it's clear that she's still entirely capable of "disappearing" if she finally decides she doesn't want to rule. That way she can truly have both options, continuing to learn and becoming empress, or fleeing and going for the witcher life. I like that in the end it truly is her choice only.

[@upperganger]

yeah my thought exactly. she can always walk away if she feels being empress isn't for her after doing her best.

[@Bronzescorpion]

Yeah, I see no problem with that. Just up an vanish, leaving a power vacuum in one of the most (if not the most) powerful empire in the world. I am sure nothing bad would come from that.

[@Bronzescorpion]

@@guccifer764 When he gets assassinated it is most certainly a coup, so there is no to little power vacuum. I agree with you, that she can refuse it before ascending. My reply was mostly pointed at upperganger's comment, that made it seem like she would walk away after she had become empress. Imagine if a ruler just decided to disappear, running away his/her duties. It would at least cause a little turmoil. Furthermore I don't actually agree with the premise that she can just leave. In the witcher ending she faked her own death and she probably would have to do that here as well. Though I don't know how easy it is for her to keep her fake death a secret in any of the endings, given that she becomes an ashen haired female witcher. Should be quite easy to figure out who she was.

[@selwyntan4014]

Yes exactly. Contrary to what so many think, i think Ciri as empress makes her the most happy. As a Witcher, she felt held back by Geralt after a while and left without a word within 2 months - in the empress epilogue she at least stayed til winter. As a Witcher she also faces discrmination and powerlessness, and a sense of beholdenness to her contract giver to an extent. As Empress, she would have no such qualms. Ciri as Empress is certainly the best ending for everyone - Ciri herself and Geralt (and Yennefer) included.

[@suggy_123]

The greatest game. Ever.

[@andrewhunt7328]

Poor Geralt. You can see he is not happy. He loves Ciri and doesn't want to upset her. But you can see he wants to talk her out of it. Papa Emyhr doesn't sit right 😔

[@victoriasharpe1661]

This kind of ending on games is always the worst. You have to choose which is the better option: for the people, or for the main characters. My decision is nearly always the main characters because it's like somebody on a comment said, 'they've given enough to the world' they basically deserve some happiness for once

This is the best ending for her, she can do more than just being a witcher (Geralt hates that too), so no, and she being the empress can give more future storys, I truly hope to one day return (maybe 6 years from now).

When Ciri referred to Emhyr as "papa", I'd like to think that for all the terrible things Ciri went through, including the events orchestrated by her father, they finally made up and he became more like how Geralt was towards Ciri so she forgave him and accepted him into her new life as her biological dad.

I have an image of Ciri as empress hearing about a creature attack near the capital. Some demagogue preaching how she is unfit so God sends punishment. He's in full flow when she walks up, in full Witcher gear, dumps the creature's head at his feet and walks back to the palace without a word. Silence is broken by a shout of "Hail, the Witcher Empress!" I have a weird imagination...

Think about something. If Ciri becomes the empress, she will buy Geralt’s wine. Doing so, all people in the empire will buy it too, and Geralt will become an amazing businessman.

[@ElPresidenteMargz]

I think geralt would do well without her too. It seems like Corvo Bianco was a hot topic and people were eager to see when it would be restored once more. Plus now with the hype of being owned by a now “toussaint hero” like Geralt. Plus he’ll have the boi Barnabas-Basil running things which is good for him as he’ll have more respect other than of a butler.

Yeah....... so glad I NEVER let that go down. First time seeing that actually after all this time and I’m glad I always pick what I feel is right

[@selwyntan4014]

Despite what others might think, i actually really, really like this ending: when Ciri calls Emhyr papa, it may feel weird at first but it tells me that the Emperor actually treats him Ciri very well, which i think Geralt (and myself tbh) really appreciates. The flow of conversation also tells me that Ciri is at complete freedom to choose if or when she wants to leave if she finds the whole thing unsuitable for her. The advisors at Ciri's side tells me Ciri's needs are well taken care of, and the fact she only used wine as an excuse for staying at a particular place means that the advisors listen to even her bs. Plus, its always been said that the best rulers are those who acknowledge their weaknesses, which Ciri clearly does here. The 10th anniversary video also tells me that Ciri is at liberty to visit Geralt (and Yen) anytime she wishes. Add in the fact that Ciri now has the freedom to go anywhere in practically the whole North and South (and without having to fear for her life!) means she fulfils her dream, while at the same time contributing meaningfully to the whole Continent. The only sad part about this video is that Geralt says his life is "the Path", which anyway would not be the case if he romances someone. Since the only pre-req for this to happen is for Ciri to be empress, i always imagine that this would happen even if we dont see this in-game - after all, witcher 3 is a game where stuff happens even if we arent there to see it (or save it from the horrors it would have faced).

[@NathanCassidy721]

I like how the part where she says that she doesn’t feel cut out to rule is a nice touch. Kinda leaves the door open for a potential Witcher 4 starring Ciri. Which there are rumors about.

Worst decision for Ciri, best decision for the empire. Whichever you believe is the best ending really depends on whether you prefer to see her happy, or to see the realm at peace. I got the Witcher ending and i prefer it, but others don't. Personally i don't even think Ciri should have shown up here, their parting had a tinge of finality to it, which is what Geralt wanted, and her coming here just portrays her as too weak to honor his wishes and cut ties. Then that 'Papa' comment just rubs salt in his wounds. Fuck, it's no wonder he only had 2 conversation questions to ask her at the end, he didn't really want her there. It was really hard for him. Poor Geralt.
