Yeah this is an old game, but I thought this would be funny to share

I definitely haven't run across anything like this in Cyberpunk. That game suffers the same as so many new games. It's just boring. I'm not a RPG freak at all in the slightest--meaning I don't sit in games like that and make sure I min-max my build or anything. Just go with the flow. So, really Witcher 3 isn't that engaging otherwise. Roll around and stab. Yet last night the little mini-story I was in kept me wanting to play, because they'd actually developed the characters. It wasn't just like "hey look here's a woman care about her plight because vagina".
Playing Witcher 3 last night and I came across this sign. I love the part about philosophers.
It's Friday so sharing for half of a laugh.
I think, therefore I am not getting conscripted. Pass the potatoes.
Comedy aside Radovid's men raid everyone during the war with Nilfgaard so there won't be any potatoes to spare. At best peasants will lose some food, getting worse they will lose livestock, and worst still rapes and murder. All of which you will see take place while playing the first few hours of the third game.
Play enough of the core game and you'll learn those exceptions are mostly bullshit because the ones they will apply to are frequently political dissidents [philosophers] who Radovid will lock up and execute anyway or [herbalists] similar enough to other targets [witches and wizards] that a mob armed with pitchforks and torches will all too merrily go after.
Anyone who has played 3 will know those herbalists are the ones next in line to be burned at the stake. Tomira, the "big booty" herbalist in White Orchard gets attacked in one endings of the game by Radovid's soldiers if Radovid survives the game. You have the option to save Tomira but otherwise she is burned to death by the soldiers when they set her hut aflame.
There are several characters who end up suffering similar fates, often as a consequence of their own actions believing they will somehow be spared the fate of others of their like. Without exception they all get executed or sentenced to with a few lasting long enough to maybe get rescued at one point in the game story.
Any fans of the first game will also take note that Kalkstein, the Master alchemist you get to know quite well, dies after being burned at the stake by Radovid's men, possibly just to point out how much Radovid isn't one of the good guys. That said, most people aren't good in the Witcher world which is part of the point with some decisions like those surrounding the Bloody Baron. Kalkstein at least goes out with a bang, literally.
Is that meant to be more gay or less gay than sucking hard cock?
And they told me it was useless to study philosophy, well I'm cleaning the library every week and you're getting your arm chopped off on a Battlefield, HAHAHA: the philosophers most likely.
unironically, this is the way of the world. true believers are sent into a meatgrinder or to get vaporized running some "op" across the lines. the people that put themselves above all, the terminally self-centered survive and propagate. just the way of the world. be very wary of anyone saying self-sacrifice is the noble and sought-after state of mind. they're using your emotions.
The first Witcher game was fantastic. don't care what anyone says. 2nd was OK and 3 was good in a way that modern games fail at.
I really liked the 2nd, perhaps more so and 3. I need to play the first. I got it for free ages ago but at the time I didn't PC game at all. I'll try it eventually.
