Witcher 2 Siding With Roche Or Iorveth

If you gave iorveth his sword so he escaped capture see above you can use a diversion to avoid killing most of the guards.

Witcher 2 siding with roche or iorveth. Whether you side with roche or with iorveth is the witcher 2 s primary choice as it has enormous repercussions on the chapters that follow. Geralt doesn t even like the guy actually. Definitely agree that roche is the better person although iorveth has one of the more interesting character arcs. There s also other things i won t say as they may be seen as spoilers that are quite drastic.

This is the landmark of the witcher series. Siding with the scoia tael will ultimately lead to the so called iorveth s path. Elves seem to be oppressed and in the minority so i naturally sided with them although i like roche s personality more. In my mind the places you go the people you meet and the things you find out on iorveth s side are far more interesting and fun to do.

The characters felt better realised and unlike on iorveth s path it actually felt like geralt was there for his own reasons rather than being caught up in a war the doesnt concern him and forgetting why he actually. You will mount an attack on the prison barge so that the prisoners are not transported to drakenborg. Iorveth s storyline is much stronger and generally more epic. Iorveth returned as one of the playable heroes in the now defunct moba set in universe of witcher.

I also find roche s path of chapter 2 overall better i find the quests more interesting and more pertinent to the main plot. I preferred iorveth s path its more satisfying roche s path becomes depressing while here you support a good cause has more likable characters the dwarves saskia and a better environment. Sure iorveth s path may have been more colourful but for some reason roche s path felt more for lack of a better word believable. If you want a better act 3 choose iorveth roche gives a better act 2 but a poorer act 3 as you cant save a certian someone not triss vergen is a better place more fun but roche s path give more insight into how the curse was formed and more back story to letho but you should really do both 1.

Main major choice of the witcher 2. Also iorveth is more interesting than roche both are great roche is a bit predictable view entire discussion 2 comments. An elven rebel and the leader of the scoia tael commando iorveth is an unmatched archer who excels in teamfights but still can be very dangerous in 1 on 1 situations. I went with roche the first time because it felt like it was more canon to the story.
