There is a reason why the Baron wants to get his family out of Velen, out of the fucking swamp because there is nothing there but misery. And if you look at the Witcher 3 anniversary, the Baron is present in Ciri's party so I think that he might have.
I was this close to decline the return for payment of his debt. I really felt sorry for the poor guy considering all the nasty shit that surrounded his little house.
This game made me feel bad for an abusive drunk, that's really hard to do. by the time i finished the Bloody Baron quest i just wanted that family to live happily ever after. some of the Baron's talks with Geralt with this theme going were some of the most powerful moments in any game i've played, and they were just conversations! This game is a masterpiece.
Yeah, this guy was something. He was raw and rough, but when I came back and saw him hanging from the tree, my heart sank for a moment. Powerful quest, one of the best there are.
@@trinevo Reading these comments makes me sad cause I got the happier ending for that quest... This song would have such a different meaning if I'd seen what you saw.
First time for me, I killed the tree spirit, the Baron took his wife to see a hermit, and I never heard from him again. Second playthrough, I freed the tree spirit, and the Baron hanged himself after his wife died. The latter was more powerful for sure, and kind of poetic.
@@therealMrA I don't know it you knew this, but you can do both and still have the baron and his wife live. If you collect all the parts to free the spirit, after you first find the Godling and are trying to restore his voice (mind you, you have to go collect them while your still doing that quest, so not finishing it before you free the spirit), you can go, free the spirit, and then meet with the sisters. By doing this, you free the spirit, the children and the wife of the bloody baron live, they go find the monk, and the only bad thing that happens is that the village that was doing the sacrifices in the first place gets ransacked and massacred, seemingly by the angry tree spirit. I think it's the best ending you can get, for that storyline anyways.
donaldthescottishtwin (DTST) oh my god, the Barons story was so tragic. The part when you kill his once child in front of him. The Witcher 3 is a near perfect game, and I just started playing it.
So depressingly melancholic. This track is a perfect description of current situation in Velen. And when I got to experience it i'm certain it should be re-named to "Slowly decomposing corpses of the innocents".
For me this melody doesnt convey depression and melancholic. For me it conveys one in its kind, Slavic tranquility. Its such a deep sensation, rooted in Slavic soul.
That title is way too edgy and it doesn't do the piece justice at all. It is melancholic, but also emits grace and beauty that rotting corpses don't really have. Save that title for some black metal song.
The first time I came across a Leshen I was quite a low level. I had no idea what the fuck was going on. This great big deer skull man suddenly came at me and trees were coming out of the ground. I ran off a cliff in a panic and died.
i love how each music from each world fits so perfect its indescribable its really like 4 small games put together its such a diffrent feel to each argument
God, its so depressing. i accidently made the baron suicide by helping the black tree/horse and i didnt saved for some quiet time. i roamed around the No man's land of velen, listening to this music and said to my self "wtf have i done?" replayed the entire game from the beginning.
Well you are better than me, at the quest where the baron and his daughter went to get the mother I had too many mods on so everytime I tried to fight the fiend the game crashed...so I just fast traveled out of there failing the quest therefore killing the baron, his daughter and his wife
I actually wanted to save the children so I released the spirit, however before choosing I stopped playing for a week or so because I couldn't make up my mind
Played this game and the DLC over 4 times, spent 450+ hours on this game and I just can't get enough! The atmosphere this game created was just sensation and the world they made felt so real and organic. I think the music is probably the best part, some of the songs on it have such emotion.
Looking into the distance, under a mysterious sunset, wind howling amongst the landscape covered in trees, wondering what lies out there in the unexplored no man's land.
I could not wrap my head around this for quite a long time. It's almost like a scene in Evangelion when Christ converts water into wine: "Why have thou hept the best wine for the last moment?"
Diego Nantes Me too buddy, me too. There is just no game like the Witcher 3, able to capture my imagination into a world so full of wonderful characters and a deep story/world-building. No game has ever I’ve played since playing the Witcher 3 has ever been close to fun. The week I spent playing Witcher 3 was probably one of my favourite times of my life. Now I just hope CD Projekt Red can create this feeling yet again with Cyperpunk, but I really doubt it. I love Geralt, Ciri, Yennefer, Triss, the Bloody Baron etc. they are all just so multi-faceted and legitimately interesting people.
DeusVult this is a theory, maybe Cyperpunk will be harder to immerse ourself because it’s in a realm where ours could potentially turn into, (granted after some time), but with The Witcher, it’s somewhere where we will never experience, hence why it’s perfectly executed.
Geralt: Here about contract. Peasant: Ah,a witcher. Here what's about: we send four man in da forest to pick up some wood and herbs,but they neva comeback.. Geralt: Aha,and what happened then..? Peasant: Last night me heard some shish bash bush from da forest.Can you help? Geralt: Let's talk about my reward. Peasant: Peasant: Aye,how much ya think it's need?? Geralt: 290< o >385 Peasant: I think we can do that.. Geralt: Bye... QUEST ACCEPTED
The Witcher 3 came out mere weeks before I graduated high school, and with my graduation money I bought a PS4. This was among the first games I bought with the nearly $3,000 I had. Along with this game being the absolute masterpiece classic that it is, and the music to go with it, that fact will forever be ingrained in my memory. And for that this game still remains my all time favorite game.
I needed 3 months for that feeling...I started to miss the feeling right after my first playthrough,and I was so damn depressed,that I won't be able to play it for the first time again Clearly the best game i've ever played
This one reminds me of sailing around Fyke Isle, especially for Keira's quest. Represents a relatively chill time on the swamps between such depressing matters like Baron's family, crookback bog orphans and fyke isle tragedy.
This soundtrack makes velen scarier and I could feel the sadness and also The Vagabond soundtrack. That's why I don't wanna stay longer in Velen, after finishing return to the crookbag bog quest, I hurriedly went to Novigrad. Velen made me scared and sad at the same time.
Yeah, I getcha. When comparing those two specifically Outskirts is definitely more relaxing but when playing the game and travelling through the woods with this music was just so nice and peaceful xD
After 2077. I can tell you. This game does Everything better and i mean everything. Graphics, sound, music, gameplay, story, missions, world-building. my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
This song is so filled with mild silent contempt and hopelessness, it’s such s good track and represents the best depiction of the witcher universe CDPR has ever made
Only recently played this game, about a couple weeks ago. Had heard good things about the Witcher games and books but never got into it until recently and god damn I was missing out on so much... I completed this game only a couple weeks back and am already craving more can’t imagine how people who bought the game way back in 2015 are feeling, have got both dlc installed and ready to go but wanna give it a while until I play them simply cos I don’t want this incredible game to end and have to wait 4 or 5 years for next one
The live action Netflix series needs to have a scene where Gerald is walking through a forest that was ravaged with war, and now there are corpses from both sides everywhere including civilians. Show marks on the body indicating that they were attacked by monsters while the battle was going on. Gerald looking slightly empathetic. Play this music in the background. It would total up to perfection
Velen... the one fantasy place where i would never ever want to live. If you dont get devoured by a swarm of necrophages while trying to find some firewood at the edge of your village you probably will get necked sooner or later by a group of bandits raiding your home.
Hearing this after the Bloody Baron quest is so depressing.
depends which ending you had
^ haha all my playthroughs I haven't gotten the bad ending
+1evilgsta1 Bloody Baron can live ? I thought he always does no matter what
+awkward bartender dies*
awkward bartender nope i got him back his wife after the toy puzzle and she turns back and the daughter returns too and boom happy ending 😁
One word for this soundtrack
*Emptiness*
Especially when you have finished the game
There is a reason why the Baron wants to get his family out of Velen, out of the fucking swamp because there is nothing there but misery.
And if you look at the Witcher 3 anniversary, the Baron is present in Ciri's party so I think that he might have.
you hit right in the feels man
This remind me the lonely carpenter guy who is building something in the middle of the swamp
I was this close to decline the return for payment of his debt. I really felt sorry for the poor guy considering all the nasty shit that surrounded his little house.
@@trinevo I actually took his money since that foglet gave me some trouble. But I did give him a week.
@@trinevo hey, a witcher needs to eat..
@@Hynotama whats more depressing is that he never actually finish working...
The missing gwent card !!

eureka0521 when you and the Baron part ways and he says, "and prove a good father to her", it just breaks my heart.
Yeah, this guy was something. He was raw and rough, but when I came back and saw him hanging from the tree, my heart sank for a moment.
Powerful quest, one of the best there are.

donaldthescottishtwin (DTST) yep
Velen really had some of the best quests in the game.I personally loved how the Ladies of the Wood connected with Baron's story.
@@ethanjohnson5594 why kill it!!! its way better to save it
@@ethanjohnson5594 Well hello there fellow Dark Souls fan.
So depressingly melancholic. This track is a perfect description of current situation in Velen. And when I got to experience it i'm certain it should be re-named to "Slowly decomposing corpses of the innocents".
It is too short for such a big map...

It is no mans land
This song doesn't remind me of corpses at all. It's more sad and beautiful at the same time, evoking feelings that I rarely experience.
The best game ever made.
Nope, the best Movie. This game technically it s not even a game beside the fights
@@carlop.ciarla3592 So you say that games should not have any cutscenes at all!?😂
@@kostasspirou1010 don't pay attention to him, he likes shitty games like fortnite
Without a doubt !
I watched my dad played this game. I am right with you this is a fucking good shit right there
"What beautiful woods!"
*sees Leshen*
"Shit"
Is there a Leshen in the picture? I can't find it x_x
Leshens are mad easy to stunlock.
You can just keep light attacking them and not take a single hit. But you gotta dodge the wolves tho.
this is exactly what happen to me..so scared shit and run like hell forgeting we can call roach
The first time I came across a Leshen I was quite a low level. I had no idea what the fuck was going on. This great big deer skull man suddenly came at me and trees were coming out of the ground. I ran off a cliff in a panic and died.
AlinRaZoR21 Yep, he is there somewhere, we just don't know, but if you see forest, there's Leshen. (Slavic mythology)
Autumn mood with a rainy gloomy sky, mud with blood and wind's howling . The right time to go back to Velen.
Why can't all games be like this masterpiece :*(
Because if all games were like that , then the word "Masterpiece" would have no meaning...
Because that would mean the studios would have to actually try.
if all games would be as good as this you wouldnt call this one a masterpiece
greed
Beacuse masterpiece = money :)
Even if they try its not 100% chance for a masterpiece and they have more money from releasing games every year.
This track express such a lot of emotions, deeply covered in human's nature... Pure beauty
You can hear the depression and hopelessness, enough to picture Velen's inhabitants lost in grief and misery
i love how each music from each world fits so perfect
its indescribable
its really like 4 small games put together its such a diffrent feel to each argument
This theme represent velen atmosphere 100%
I think it is the best game I've ever played. Awesome atmosphere and deeply RPG.
Witcher series simply masterpiece.
Thank you CD Projekt!
God, its so depressing. i accidently made the baron suicide by helping the black tree/horse and i didnt saved for some quiet time. i roamed around the No man's land of velen, listening to this music and said to my self "wtf have i done?"

the word of this game is so beautiful .
only ~450 hours?! bitch please :D
I am nostalgic of this game
Corentin Mezrar mee tooo😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💕💕💕
So melancholic this song =(
+seffard Velen is a melancholic place... war, diseases, sorrow, hate,
So suitable for this area. Love this Music
+Vertigo Beats How did you forget the monsters?
+WJ archives starvation too... mad people cause of hypoglycaemia were a disturbing view...
I'm still devastated that they didn't include this piece in the official soundtrack, one of the songs I was looking forward to :/
Looking into the distance, under a mysterious sunset, wind howling amongst the landscape covered in trees, wondering what lies out there in the unexplored no man's land.
All of the best music from this game seems to be unofficial
I could not wrap my head around this for quite a long time. It's almost like a scene in Evangelion when Christ converts water into wine: "Why have thou hept the best wine for the last moment?"
This song remind me of Keira :')
I killed her :'(
Because most of her screen time was pretty much in the same area where this music played
WyvernHeads in my story line she lived a happily ever after with lambert 😂
WyvernHeads me too lol
"Geralt, just when I was starting to miss you"....
That haunting melody adds so much to the game's ambiance.
Here in 2020 .this song brings back so many memories ...good times man 👍👍
Indeed.
Vellen + Vellen music theme + rain = best vibe of all time.
I finished the game and the 2 DLCs 2 times... Still there's empty in my heart. :'(

so good
I love Velen ♥
This is the instrument you keep hearing in the velen themes

Used by the composer, Marcin
Cuando lo compre y escuché la música y la ambientación me di cuenta que había acertado en mi compra
Velen, the concrete form of dereliction and desperation.
Ubisoft. from this music you can learn something. But I doubt you will!
Roots are gonna rot my gut.
My 4th favorite game of all time, such a wondrous gorgeous game :)
