I think that is bias in judging gender roles from a different perspective and culture. There are many cultures throughout history where that was very much the thinking and would be perfectly acceptable.

When anything goes wrong, whether they are involved or not, it seems like the first step is to kill all the non humans in this world so I see where radicalization comes from.Īlso, I think it is unfair to judge him for his thinking as far as women being part of the fight and being prepared for death. Kind of easy to see where Iorveth comes from. You really have to acknowledge that that kind of thing happens. Without trying to spoil anything, lets just say in 2 and 3 despite my efforts directly to the contrary I saw the nonhumans massacred twice in major cities I was invovled in. I think your reasoning is pretty sound mostly though OP about Roche but it's what makes Roche redeemable and likable in a lot of ways given what you see many on "his side" of things do in the first act of Witcher (and after). Yeah his methods are extreme but you live in a very extreme world in these games and he basically fits right into that system.

I don't agree given what you accomplish with Iorveth by the end of his path. tapdancing Christ, it felt good to skewer that asshole! Plus, you get to kill that scum Loredo as a bonus. Going with Roche is like judging people by their actions, and not by their color or religion. To me, going with Iorveth is like hating every white westerner because you are arab, or hating every arab because you're a white westerner. And that is the only position I can morally get behind. His problem with the scoia'tael is not that they are non-humans, it is that they are bandits and terrorists, no matter their race. He never (so far in the game, at least) expresses dislike for any innocent non-humans. Roche on the other hand is not ruled by hatred the same way Iorveth is. In light of recent events in the real world, you can see that just as with Al Qaida and ISIS, there are the beginnings of a legitimate cause in there somewhere, but the methods they employ are so beyond the pale that any legitimacy is instantly wiped out and replaced with revulsion. Our women are prepared to die", I saw him for what he was: A terrorist that has lost his moral compass in the pursuit of his goal. I decided to keep a save and play out both choices, just so I could see the start to each path and see if one of them rubbed me the wrong way. Beforehand, I was thinking I'd go with Roche, since he'd stuck his neck out for me, but then Zoltan wanted me to team up with the elves, and oh man, Zoltan is a friend, so I have to give that some consideration, right? BTW, that's a real testament to how well the characters are written in this game, that I am able to think of Zoltan as a real person who can influence me, the player, through his friendship to Geralt, the character.Īnyway, I was having a real hard time, and I decided to put the game aside and sleep on it, come back to it the next day with fresh eyes. So I came to the end of Act 1 and was having real trouble deciding.
