30 FAITS Cachés dans The Witcher 3 que vous avez sûrement ratés
AI Summary
This video explores numerous hidden details, Easter eggs, and post-quest consequences in The Witcher 3, aiming to reveal aspects many players might have missed.
One notable secret is the "House of the RIPI" in the Nilfgaardian military camp in Vizima. Initially inaccessible, guards prevent entry. However, if Geralt dons Nilfgaardian armor purchased from the Crow's Perch quartermaster, he is allowed inside. Within, players can find chests with gold, Nilfgaardian armor, and a private area.
The game features subtle interactions with Roach, Geralt's horse. The "Calm" ability, typically used for calming Roach when she panics, can also be used to tame wild horses, as seen in the "Of Herbs and Snow" quest. This ability is even the default selection when mounting Roach.
After finding Ciri on Undvik and teleporting to Kaer Morhen, players can spot their companions preparing to fight the Wild Hunt. Ciri herself can be found in a hidden training area, the same spot where she is first introduced. Speaking to her there triggers a unique dialogue line about her past fears of training.
A recurring theme is the lasting impact of player choices, with many quests continuing to show consequences long after completion. The video highlights this with the dwarves from the "Smuggler's Cache" quest. After helping them retrieve their stolen goods, they are later found to have stolen again and are in trouble. Players can choose to help them, take revenge, or track them down. If helped, they settle near an energy site, mining for gold. This encounter is only possible if the game ends with the "Witcher ending" for Ciri and Geralt returns to White Orchard to craft her sword. Depending on whether Radovid was killed, either Nilfgaardian guards or Witch Hunters will confront the dwarves, with dialogue referencing Gunter O'Dimm.
Another example of post-quest consequences involves the herbalist Tomira in White Orchard. If Radovid was not assassinated, Witch Hunters will also target Tomira. Her house will be on fire, and players can choose to save her or let her perish.
In Novigrad, a drunk barber can give Geralt a random, incorrect haircut if players complain about a botched job. The barber's response, "Good luck," is presented as a humorous dismissal.
A well-known but still notable detail is the "Godric the Coward" event. Initially, players could farm cows in White Orchard by killing them and meditating. To prevent this, a patch introduced a cow-killing golem. This golem reappears whenever the player fast travels to the area, acting as a perpetual threat.
Lambert's survival in the Battle of Kaer Morhen is not guaranteed. If Keira Metz is not present or if Geralt fails to intervene when Lambert is surrounded by specters, he can die. His body will be placed with Vesemir's during the funeral.
The quest "Crime and Punishment" in Skellige is highlighted as easily missable. Geralt encounters a chained man, Yord, who claims innocence. Investigating further reveals Yord was wrongly accused by his sister, who fabricated a story due to her dislike of his uncle, the victim. Players face a choice: inform the sister Geralt freed Yord, leading her to vow honesty, or reprimand her for her lies.
A subtle Game of Thrones reference can be found in a Skellige prison. In a cell, the body of a small man with a scarred face and familiar clothing is visible, strongly resembling Tyrion Lannister.
In Kaer Morhen, the bed where Geralt and Triss shared intimacy can be found. Triss's lost earrings can be found there, and if returned to her, she will wear them for the rest of the game.
An impressive detail concerning enhanced Signs is that Quen, when fully upgraded, visually changes and can even deflect rain, acting as a Witcher's umbrella, although Geralt's clothes still get wet.
The video revisits Crow's Perch after the Baron's departure, revealing that his men have become abusive, harassing villagers. This demonstrates that without the Baron's leadership, his men are mere thugs.
Gaetan, a Witcher from the School of the Cat, is encountered in a contract. He massacred a village for being cheated. If spared, he provides the key to his hideout, containing loot and a note about his school's demise. The note also mentions Schrödinger, a nod to the famous physics paradox.
Returning to Oreton after helping the survivor Milly, she gifts Geralt a drawing of him.
During the "Lord of the Wood" contract in Skellige, if the ritual is performed, the ancient leshen can be seen observing from the background.
The Igni sign can be used to extinguish fire elementals, preventing damage and allowing for loot collection. A humorous, albeit useless, "dive bomb" animation can be performed in water.
A troll named Boris in Velen, encountered after saving him from nekkers, can be offered his questionable stew or given flowers instead.
The quest "A Dog's Life" begins with Geralt saving a dog with a key. The dog leads him to an abandoned village where a hermit was murdered. The dog then disappears.
A quiz question is posed about a stuffed bear in the Ker Trolde tavern: it's wearing a warrior's helmet.
In White Orchard, the quest involving the stolen frying pan is revisited. Clues like a monocle and a note point to the character of Talar, a lesser-known character from the first game who plays a more significant role in the conspiracy quest.
A romantic spot north of Novigrad features couples whose interactions change with meditation, including juggling, music, and suggestive dancing.
In the "Missing in Action" quest, a young man's brother is found alive, saved by a Nilfgaardian soldier named Rosine. If Geralt advises the young man to take Rosine in, they can be seen later living peacefully on a farm. This reveals Rosine is not just a soldier but potentially a high-ranking officer, raising questions about his past actions and repentance. Additionally, the brother is missing two fingers, a detail mentioned earlier in the quest.
Children saved in the "Family Matters" quest can be found later at a school in Novigrad, their names matching those from the Velen swamp.
Yennefer's dialogue during a party in Skellige changes based on Geralt's attire and beard length, with her expressing disapproval of traditional island wear and a short beard, but admiration for Nilfgaardian attire and a long beard.
A rare "Flying Redanian" ghost ship can be sighted between Skellige islands, a possible nod to the Flying Dutchman.
The Novigrad serial killer quest is presented as a thriller. The initial suspect, a fire priest, is killed, but later, more killer flyers appear. The true killer is revealed to be Hubert, the medical examiner, who is a superior vampire. A humorous dialogue option during an autopsy with Joakim involves inspecting the genitals, prompting a sarcastic remark from Joakim.
In Kaer Morhen, a grave for Leo, a promising Witcher from the first game who died in battle, is present, serving as a narrative link.
The quest "The Four Faces of Cid"— Cid is a misspelling of Emdal in the transcript — on Pharo island involves a pilgrim and bandits. Praying at Emdal's altars can instantly change the weather, with three altars corresponding to rain, storm, and clear skies.
Whales can be spotted while sailing in Skellige.
The video concludes by praising The Witcher 3 as a masterpiece and hinting at potential future content if viewers express interest.
