Many small choices have an impact on characters and quests, but some specific choices drive three significantly different endings. Indeed, it’s a staple of this very series, but as a first time Witcher player, I was genuinely taken by surprise by the depth of those outcomes. Witcher 3 is not the first game to have consequences for in-game decisions. I started furiously texting gamer friends to take them to task for putting me through this only to learn none of them had gotten the same ending. I made a strangled sound as I considered flipping the coffee table over. After over 100 hours of gameplay and emotional attachment to these characters, I could not believe this was the ending of the game. “You have to be kidding me,” I muttered as I watched the game’s epilogue. I sat there staring at the screen in complete disbelief.
