  1. The Politics of The Witcher 2. Part 6: Why do they fight?

    16.06.2013 @ 13:30

    Well guys this is it, my final installment of the politics of the Witcher 2 series.

    This is why I think the Witcher 2 is one of those rare games I can consider a work of art. It is the meaning and pertinence behind all the politics that I deeply value and appreciate.

    So anyways, hope you enjoy it! :)
  2. Jacques de Aldersberg's song

    09.03.2013 @ 04:50

    I've been listening to music at random, and I thought I wanted to listen to This Fire Burns by Killswitch Engage.

    And as I was listening and paying attention to the lyrics, I thought of Alvin. And I just cried teared up.

    This song suits him so perfectly:

    "This Fire"

    All I've ever wanted was destiny to be fulfilled,
    it is in my hands, I must not fail,
    I must not fail.

    Even through the darkest days,
    this fire burns, always.
    this fire burns, always.

    This is the broken ground
    Misery begins to rise.
    Turn away from yesterday,
    tomorrow's in my eyes.

    Nevermore to be held down
    by the wings of history.
    Nevermore to be cast aside,
    this day is mine.

    Even through the darkest days,
    this fire burns, always.
    this fire burns, always.

    I will not be denied
    in this final hour.
    I will not be denied,
    this day is mine.

    The passion inside me,
    is burning, is burning.
    The passion inside me,
    is burning, is burning.

    Even through the darkest days,
    this fire burns always (always).
    This fire burns (fire burns) always.

    Always (always).



    It so perfectly captures his tragedy, his pain, his hopes, his insanity, his obsession with the antithesis of his icy nightmares: fire.

    "Nevermore to be held down
    by the wings of history.
    Nevermore to be cast aside,
    this day is mine."

    I can't :'(

    Such a great character, I want to hug and punch him at the same time.
  3. The Politics of The Witcher 2. Part 5: Radovid vs Philippa, the Clash of Titans

    Part Five is up! A piece examining one of my favorite rivalries ever, between two of my favorite characters and magnificent bastards ever!

  4. The Wild Hunt and Jacques de Aldersberg

    13.02.2013 @ 18:13

    As TW1 players remember, the Wild Hunt at the end asks Geralt if he could take Jacques' soul, an offer Geralt can accept.

    So lore experts, can anyone tell me what the Wild Hunt would want from Jacques' soul? Him being a source most likely had something to do with it, and I know they are interested in Ciri for being a source and a prophesied figure.

    Which brings us to this. Can Jacques or his soul, make a brief appearance in TW3? What possible consequences could this have?

    I think it would be interesting if Geralt and Jacques came face to face again for a brief time.

    Regardless, I hope Alvin will be mentioned in TW3. In TW2 there was only one implicit mention of him and I've always found that disappointing. So I hope Geralt's past in TW1 gets revisited in some capacity.

    Write up on Roy! Write up on Roy! Write up on Roy!
    Despite their fearsome appearance they look like a patient bunch :D

    Sorry for contributing to getting your thread closed Knight, I don't hold with feminism, but I hold with everybody expressing well reasoned opinions like your own. I shouldn't have raised the point about Saskia just needing to button up compared to Isabella's unarmoured and unclothed state, bound to be divisive. Regards, Bloth.

    Something from Plato dialogues for you my friend
    τόν μη δυνάμενον αἰδοῦς καί δίκης μετέχειν κτείνειν ώς νόσον πόλεως = meaning he who does not participate in public affairs should be killed as if it was the cause of a city plague :)

    Cao Cao is brilliantly portrayed. But just how fake can his beard get?

    I'm drawing a blank right now. Where is Cao Cao from? (And apparently you're still Radovid when you post a profile comment :P)
