I listened to the summary of all of the 2012/2013 witcher 3 drafts. So originally the Witcher 3 main story was 3 times longer and characters that were relatively minor had much more extensive storylines. The same goes for most of the characters that made it to the final cut. The Wild Hunt was much bigger in the story than in the final cut- which is shows that the developers already had extensive plans for it but couldn't make it due to budget/time limitations. There was also supposed to be a battle between Nilfgaard & Skellige (just like the battles in Witcher 2) but they cut it out too. the game had 3 different endings that were executed somewhat differently than in the final cut. In the 2012 draft there was several endings for Ciri 1. supposed to die with Avallach trying to stop the white frost and Geralt gets super depressed, and eventually adopts a boy to train as a witcher. There was also an empress ending. This is much more extensive than the one that made it in the final cut. So that friendly Nilfgaardian General was supposed to be Ciri's future husband. This ending was won if Ciri had a good relationship with the General. There was a Ciri as initially trying out being a Witcher and finding out that it sucks & she needs Geralt to bale her out. She almost gets killed by a Ballisk type monster. Then she finds that the white frost problem isn't resolved and fully becomes 'the lady of time and space' and devotes herself to the world ending crisis and leaves geralt and her friends. So originally Ciri was never meant to be a Witcher lol so they really changed that in a major way. And it is likely that the lodge was spared in the Witcher 3 at the last moment because they will probably re-appear in the Witcher 4. If they kill phillipa and friends that can't use them again.

@SympathysSilhouette the cut content shows that originally there were scenes after the battle with Eredin/Wild hunt. In these, Yennefer reveals that she and the Emperor had plotted to exterminate the Lodge after they helped her find Ciri. The Lodge is then arrested and sent to their deaths, while Triss is spared by Yennefer. Crazy right? This makes all the loose ends of the storyline from the start make more sense.

w3 cut content is amazing...!

amazing! more cut content

the witcher 3 cut content is amazing.. especially the betrayal of the lodge. so many loose ends from the original cut of the W3 makes sense now, especially regarding the lodge.

this is the only try hard/beauty queen channel that has such a low subscriber/view count. odd, usually they are ultra successful

great presentation of the W3 guest convos at the end Spoiler
