I already read it on BSN and its a very nicely written article about the various political and military factions in the game. Although I did find some grammar mistakes here and there, its no problem since it is quite long, Enjoyed reading it.

Yes, I keep finding typos and mistakes every time I read it. Apologies for that, I hate working on a laptop.


In other news, I started working on the 2nd part, which will deal with Letho's mission as he interacts with and maneuvers amongst several factions.

Was able to upload some images, yay! Still there is a limit to how many, so minor factions don't get any.

Thank you so much for writing this! I have horrible memory and zero interest in politics, but it's such a vital part of the game that I constantly felt either confused or missing out on important things. A lot of things are much, much clearer to me now. You're amazing. :]

(And yes, image limitation sucks - I believe it's 10 images per post. Perhaps you could message a moderator and see if they can do anything about it.)

Cool! They really add to the whole! Poor minor factions though... wouldn't mind some stills of Marie Louise being tortured! =}

I'm very grateful you took the time to write these articles (the second one is also great, I'm looking forward to more ;D).

If I may nitpick a little, you said, in part about Free Pontar, that "dragons can shapeshift in Witcher universe". That is only half true, only golden dragons can shapeshift. Saskia isn't a golden dragon (as Geralt points out in Act 3), but she is a daughter of one and thus can assume only one human shape. It's a small detail, but may be worth mentioning for those who are reading to refresh their memory or something like that :]

Thanks!

I apologize for the delay vis-a-vis the 3rd blog. I was busy with DX:HR (great game) and my work and studies. But my gaming PC keeps crashing and I have to send it for repairs. So I might have time to write the 3rd one, hopefully. Stay tuned.

Bah, and I have to finish TW2 before I can read this. Ah well, as long as you don't remove it from the site I can wait.

I am sorry about that. I've been really busy, so I couldn't devote time to write anything. I probably will when I play 2.0. But I would not expect anything before middle of October

cool just found this, going to start reading this. They should have created something along the lines of that witcher world trailer for the game intro. Maybe thats the kind of thing that's going to be in the new intro for the xbox release.

Yea I agree. Perhaps they can make a summary video as a trailer for TW3, to explain how the war broke out.

I really liked this guide as well as part 2, it's making my Dark playthrough much more entertaining. I sincerely hope you do more.

I am currently playing the game on Dark mode for the first time, and the story is still awesome after all this time. So there is a big chance that I will write something when I am done.

Thank you for your comment!
