I’ve read all the books, I’ve seen the show multiple times - hell, I even read all the comics, the most recent of which shows a side of Geralt I’m not sure I like very much. Honestly, even without WitcherCon, I’m perpetually around 30 seconds away from reinstalling it on one of the many platforms I own it on. Hissrich, although that was for a different website.īasically, I like The Witcher. A couple of years back I even went to the set of The Witcher and spoke with people like Henry Cavill and showrunner Lauren S. On other occasions I’ve talked about how The Witcher is at its best when you’re just wandering aimlessly through its wilderness, tackling side stories as they come, or about how The Witcher 3 in particular paradoxically uses indulgent and alluring folklore to ground itself in realism.

Hell, if WitcherCon was anything to go by, the bathtub Geralt meme could take on a whole new meaning. Maybe we’ll get a different sword, or an additional set of cosmetic blinders for Roach. It’s probably just going to be a new outfit for Geralt, or Yen, or Triss.

I know there aren’t going to be any new characters, or quests, or sprawling areas teeming with all manner of belligerent beasties - that doesn’t change the fact I’m more excited about this than like, half the new games due to launch this year.
