Geralt: Hates portal
Yennefer: loves portal
Ciri: Is a portal herself
Hjalmar: Will kick you back to your own portal
The four horsemen of the apocalypse
🤣🤣
Love it
Geralt: Hates portal
Yennefer: loves portal
Ciri: Is a portal
Hjalmar: "Aaarghhh!"
Lol
xLetalis' mom: stop playing and clean your room
xLetalis: Cerys will take care of that
Hehe :D
Lol
Gotta say, that tackle on the wild hunt minion was badass...
Quite stupid, but badass.
I don't know if you are a fan of professional wrestling, but this move is called the Spear. There are even more wrestling moves in the game, you just have to pay attention to see them 😉.
@@Zireael_1251 Why should they use spear when they have RKO
@@tacticalg754 Well, in this case RKO would not be as cool as Spearing your enemy through a portal 😉. About those other moves: Dettlaff dropkicks Regis and Regis chokeslams Dettlaff in the Tesham Mutna fight. In fist fight one of Geralt's fast attacks is the MMA version of the Superman Punch (Henry Cavill would be proud 😄) and Ciri destroys Caranthir's staff with a move that looks like Superman Punch with a sword, so I guess I should call it a Superman... Thrust? 🤔
@@Zireael_1251 you dont understand witcher use swords not spears😁
@@shahqurbanbaba1873 I know, but we are talking about pro wrestling moves, not medieval weapons 😉.
I knew geralt couldn't stay in Beauclair for long.. Good to see he finally joined the Brotherhood
We are assassins. Nothing is true everything is permitted. "Stay your blade from the flesh of an innocent." "Hide in plain sight, be one with the crowd.
@@GrandMassU I love AC, but I always thought that was a very oxymoronic creed. "Everything is permitted. Except you can't do this, and you have to do this. Basically everything is permitted except the things we say aren't permitted" 😂
@@jeffreyharris3433 so true A
Jeffrey Harris All it really advises is no to kill innocents, everything is permitted bar murdering innocent people. The hide in plain sight, be one with the crowd is really more a guideline to harmonious assassination 😂. So yeah basically one thing not permitted, don’t kill those innocents.
hahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahaha
"Bah skellige gets colder than that"
Freya bless him 😭
indeed ;]

Honestly, Hjalmar is the most badass character (besides, of course, Geralt) in the game. He literally had 3 boss fights without a blink of an eye. Ice Giant? "leave him to me"; Wild Hunt? "no problem pal," and fought them off, TWICE. This is true legendary level of badassery. Hope Dandelion had a poem for him somewhere.
well said
hjamlar is more loyal than i thought even as a king he would risk his life for ciri
Simond Hjalmar can say he fought the Wild Hunt and survived, now how many “ordinary” humans can say that. A true warrior and a badass
When Geralt came to Queen Cerys for help, she said "I'll send you my brother", and both she and Geralt seemed to think that was plenty. One riot, one Hjalmar.
@@evilTaker90V2 yee only skelligers can truly say that they are built different
Geralt's armour is kinda like some Assassin's Creed equipment.
indeed, I was kinda going for it
@@xLetalis where do u get that armour from
@@ASH-zx1jd It's the grandmaster feline armour, from the Blood and Wine DLC
I know, it’s awesome! I’m wearing it as well atm
@@ASH-zx1jd Btw its Blue color standart, so he dyed it white also
“Posted 19 minutes ago”
Last time anyone was this early, there were more Witchers around.
Bro, too soon
Definitely Alkaline oh ofc meant no disrespect to the School of the Wolf.
Peace to the fallen.
*A problem arises...*
Hjalmar:
_Cerys will take care of that!_
King Hjalmar seems better than i thought to be honest, what he deems to be boring he delegates to his sister, what he deems to be honorable(such as fighting) he still does it himself.
@@sevach seems like he's more fit to be a warrior rather than a leader then, don't you think
Proving that Cerys is the better ruler for Skellige.
@@sevach Something important for economy/politycs in the Skelliega?
Cerys: i will take care of that
Some kind of battle:
Hjalmar will take care of that.
More like:
*A problem arises...*
Hjalmar:
_Run at it head first!_
Me: How many times you want me to play witcher 3?
xLetalis: Countless!!!!
It's never enough ;]
How many videos are you gonna make on blood and wine:
XLetails: yes
@@MrSimonmshannon you mean about Yen and Triss
@@xLetalis very true! Can't get enough of it!
That white dyed cat school armor would be such a turnoff for Yen...
I was wearing it for Cerys ;]
Yen mention that she likes to Wear black and white clothes...
@@jonts7 i dyed my griffin armour nice colourful shades :'D
What a boss. "If he's king, he does the same things, only with a crown on his head."
Poor Cerys gets to do all the governing anyway.
kinda :)
lucky you mean. she wanted the position, and she gets it with or without the title of queen
@@palmagius and skelliga gets the king they want
@@steampunkmonkeyproductions5792 only a puppet king, because it’s still Cerys who does all the work.
Geralt: Can you help me?
Cerys: Ah, uh, I have this, ah, thing going on, and, uh, I think someone's calling me
Hjalmar: *spears a mofo through a hole in reality and would do it again*
Hjalmar chadmar
Imagine if he came out the second portal spearing another guy
I'm flattered you really decided to make a whole video after that comment.
Was that you? :)
@@xLetalis yeah. I was searching for king Hjalmar's response to the invitation to Kaer Morhen for my own video, though didn't find anything.
@@ExtremeGamingHD3D Thanks for the reminder once again, I must admit I forgot to write down your name :( but I recognize it now
@@xLetalis thanks for the replies, dude.
Wanted to ask something. Is there any way I can get some likes or end screens from you?
That's likely against TH-cam's ToS
I always went for Cerys as queen because I felt as though she was the better ruler but seeing this and how shes basically running the show anyway with Hjalmar in charge that really reinforces that stance.
Indeed ;]
I picked her when I realized that I put full faith in her baby oven plan. I never would've blindly trusted Hjalmar in the same way. But this, as you say, reinforced that decision for me.
Hjalmar "allergic to administration" An Craite
The only reason people should choose her instead of her brother is the extra ability point you get from that place of power.
Crach himself said that they're very different types of leaders. Cerys is an administrator while Hjalmar is a warleader.
Insane how much details they have put in this game.
Honestly even I did not remember everything when I revisited this topic :)
xLetalis the crazy thing is cyberpunk looks like it will be more detailed than this game.
@@luiji120 lets hope so
@@luiji120 well this never aged well lol
Please for god sake don't let me play the masterpiece for 4th time...
Don't play it :D
Play it
Just play it
4th time only? Darn rookie numbers ;)
I've played the witcher 3 game about 6 times
Hjalmar is probably the most underrated character in the game IMO
Aye.
"who wants to taste skellige steel!" Yeah he's awesome and hilarious
XLetalis you're a goddamn legend for the witcher 3 community, you're a major reason why the game is still alive after all these years, nobody else has been as thorough as you have in exploring every corner of this world and then sharing it with us.
hey, thank you :)
Last time I was this early, Bran was still king
Bro, too soon
In the case of Game of Thrones it's quite the opposite (for whatever reason damn i hate season 8)
And I guess King Foltest was still alive...
I really would've liked Cerys to help at Kaer morhen with some skellige shieldmaidens like the one from the skellige gwent deck (I mean, she is the most single most op gwent card)
When Hjalmar ran into that portal I just bursted out laughing lol. That was amazing. If anything else happens during the attack I would love to see it ☺
Gaunter O'Dimm somewhere, but I cannot see him, only I hear him somewhere close.
_Look behind you_
"let me whisper in your ear tell you something that you like to hear"
Muhammed ACAR Did you see in hearts of stone in the begining of dlc childs are singing his song its so creepy
Hjalmar is not the most smart guy in Skellige, but damn, every time Geralt asks for his help he is willing to do with such good vibe ! That's all you need for a true friend !
0:35 The thought of Geralt and Uma making out is seared into my mind forever. Thanks, I hate it.
Five years already? By the Great Sun... No, I'm not aging fast, no no no.
:( Yeah... nearly 5 and a half years at this point
I still think it's a crying shame Ciri doesn't interact with any of the An Craites. Poor Crach died for her and he was so eager to see her.
One thing I hate about determining the King of Skellige is not being able to do both the siblings investigation of the Berserker attack. I always want to do the Hjalmar one but I feel like Cerys is the much better ruler...
hm whys she better?
@@mareksicinski3726 She is probably the only one who wants and is able to unite Skellige.
@@mareksicinski3726 She basically ends up doing all the ruling anyway. Even if Hjalmar is King he drops everything, leaves his country before a war and goes off to fight some wraiths. That's not great leadership.
Same. He is just an irresponsible morron in my opinion.
@@mareksicinski3726 she steers away from the warrior culture and "heralds in a time of enlightenment". Meanwhile the king option leads to bloodier and bloodier raids
0:35 it seems Geralt's feeling towards Uma hasn't changed
I think in all my playthroughs I tend to choose Cerys since with Hjalmar, there's just a sense of things left unresolved with the traitors conspiracy (compared to Cery Queen route).
That said, I do really like Hjalmar's "You have a King for a mate" dialogue after battle of Kaer Morhen a lot more than his alternative (Cery is Queen post KM battle dialogue).
I always chuckle whenever I see Keira saying "Would have never come to KM if I knew this was going to happen."
Not like her alternatives were gonna be any better (get killed by my Geralt or get staked by Radovid) lol.
yeah it's true
Cerys's route require Svanrige to feel guilty to work, which doesn't make much sense considering he can take charge and backstab if he's king. Otherwise, Birna committed the perfect crime.
Keira the Wise.
@@dragonknightleader1 Birna the WISE.
Once again you stun me with a detail I'd never noticed before. The battle of Kaer Morhen is far too hectic for me to notice things like Hjalmar going portal diving :D
:D Happy to be of service
I only did this mission first time the other night and noticed it as I ran over and had to pause the game and clip a video because I was like 'did I just see that'?... video uploads... yup... bursts out laughing 👍What a legend didn't pay attention to the dialogue though but this vid has clarified that for me 😂Such an amazing game. It's like assassins creed meets Skyrim
@@SithlordBebop neither of those 2 games comes even close to the witcher games
i honestly thought it was a bug bc i didn't tsee him until the funeral my first playthrough 🤣
4:16 hjalmar is massive next to geralt 😂 he reminds me of thor... the real thor (the red haired guy that rides and eats his immortal goats)
Well he is quite big, but I also think at that point he's actually floating a little above the ground
Well we'll see the real Thor soon...
Hjalmar yelling and diving into a portal is EXACTLY how I get home to my bed after a long shift at my hospital. 🤣
Cerys: sorry Hjalmaar gave me a load of tasks
Hjalmaar, the King: *WHOOPTIDOO*
Fun fact the same Hjalmar was Ciris first boyfriend and “fiancé.” They were on Sellege, Ciri about 10 him 15, they were ice skating/long jumping , Hjalmar was being outdone by Ciri, the boys were making fun of him, he tries to outdo her, injures himself, Ciri right beside him, he had zero grudge, they flirt and Hjalmar asks to marry her. It ends with Ciri being dragged back teary eyed to Cintra.
It is said multiple times in game?
Actually only once I found. I missed it my first play through cause I hadn’t read the books yet.
@@Benjamin-mj9pd i thought he said they were both 12
Heart breaks . Its true. And Ciri did not pay a visit...
It's funny that the line at Vesemir's funeral if he's king is both boastful about his new title as King of the Isles, but still carries his usual stumbling awkwardness when he has to pause and rephrase his offer of help to get his message across more clearly. An **optional** line, for an **optional** character in this fight, changing to reflect his demeanor if he **optionally** becomes King and is still in line with his established character really shows the strength of CDPR's writing department. No line is ever taken for granted or wasted if it could be more interesting and either tell you more about a character, their view of the world they live in, or their view of the player's actions.
well said
i've discovered a few lines of dialogue regarding the trolls at Kear Morhen. on the mission where you meet the trolls with lambert.
during the stage where the throw rocks at you if you use Signs,bombs,swords the trolls will say unique lines of dialogue regard which one you use
4:04 omg 😂 You know, I'd rather not have Hjalmar as a king, but there's no denying the man is a legend
I agree :)
So even in the discussion after helping both of them with their quests, Crach clearly states that Hjalmar is a warrior through and through while Cerys is a planner. Not really surprised that he would leave the actual governing to Cerys since he's more or less hopeless outside of a fight.
Hey I found something new in the combat system. It's a new finish move I acidentally did against a heavily armoured Skellige guard, where Geralt hits his opponent in the face with his sword's pommel. I think it's pretty uncommon because it's the only time I ever got it, and the animation looks kinda weird, like it's not really supposed to happen.
I've seen that I think...
Pommel you say? I see Geralt has learned how to end them rightly
Interesting. I've never made Hjalmar king. Always went with Cerys. She seems the better choice. What say you, my friend?
I prefer Cerys as well :) But Hjalmar ain't that bad either
He is way too hot-headed for a ruler
ABSOLUTELY. He’s too hot headed
They're like Jacob and Evie Frye. The difference is that they have a mutual respect you never see with the Frye twins, so instead of exacerbating eachother's shortcomings, they actually help eachother.
I love the little details in the Coronation quest. If Hjalmar becomes king, the cheers for him are louder. But if you walk around when Cerys becomes queen, more people say they're happy with the decision.
The Witcher's Creed : Assassins of Monsters vibe intensifies
Confusing stonks ?
The one reason I've never made Hjalmar king: you miss out on a place of power you only get if you decide to help Cerys
Back then, I laughed everytime I heard Hjalmar saying "Cerys will take care of that"...But the ability to know the right person for a mission or a task is one of the characteristic of a badass king too... I can say Hjalmar is a badass king...
fair enough
Something for your Hjalmar Video if you did`t already metioned it: When you are on Hjalmars Quest on Undvik, you can find his horn that he uses against sirenes and let them fall out of the sky
Indeed, you can then keep it and honk it at will :D
7:00 That's a good problem to have.
oh it is, never implied I was complaining.... well may be a little, cause I won't have as much time for the Witcher :D
the madlad just tackled that minion back to his own portal and then came out of another saying skellige is colder.
WHAT AND ABSOLUTE UNIT !!!
I want my memories wiped just so I can play this game anew again.
indeed I do as well :(
Get the tabletop RPG and continue the adventure with friends! That's what solved the post-W3 depression for me.
Love these videos
can't believe you are still ABLE to and are WILLING to make witcher videos, i love and loved your content throughout the years. I'd hug if i were given the chance
Im just happy there are still tons of witcher videos coming up.
I don't know if you have alry covered that, because there's so much of your videos about W3, but there's kind of interesting quest development or piece of information you can learn while doing Hjalmar personal quest on Undvik. Actually, if you speak to Crach about helping Hjalmar, he will tell you to seek some information about Undvik in the tavern in the harbor below Kaer Trolde. It's completely optional, but if you decide to do that, later on you can actually discover the identity of the madman on Undvik (the one that is in the giant's boat).
I plan on doing a video about that quest, there are several interesting details surrounding it. I think I actually went to that tavern on my first walkthrough.
Thanks so much for still creating content for this game 5 years on. You're incredibly dedicated
My pleasure :)
Damn Geralt looks cool in that Assassins outfit
oh the Vagabond armor with hood is the shit
0:35 i was not mentally prepared for that...
apologies ;]
You'd think if the king himself was going across the sea and the continent to fight he'd bring more than his 2 mates, it makes sense when cerys is queen but kinda odd.
I started watching you on 2017 and I still love you
Thank you for being here ;]

Hey X, I was in Novigrad lately and found something interesting. If you play the Carnal Sins quest, you have to visit the Vegelbud residence. Now if you didn’t finish the A Matter Of Life And Death quest (like you didn’t visit Triss after you got the masks) if you visit her before heading towards the Vegelbud residence she will have a dialogue change, including Ingrid but hers is slight. Anyway if you didn’t know this put it in your video if you would like. P.S. I’m a dude lol
Hey I think I've heard about this but haven't checked it out yet!
Will we be seeing cyberpunk videos till 2025? hopefully!
May be :)
buddy u know good and well he will be doing cyberpunk videos till 2100
Probably till 2077 when Letalis is too old but his children will take over the channel and upload it.
damn, that hjalmar tackle at 4:09 is badass.. "skellige gets colder 'n that"..haha
indeed ;]
Geralt about to kiss uma, bro don't do me like that, I wasn't ready
0:34 Made me realize how strange that in a game, that is set in a world inspired by polish folklore, the protagonist (who lifts curses by profession) knows that the ugly creature has been cursed to take that hideous form, but his first instinct isn't to try true love's kiss to lift it.
CD projekt Red, if you are reading this, yes I would gladly be the screenwriter for a witcher game where the protagonist will have to make out with varios missfortunate lasses to magicaly solve their problems.
*hot girl transformed into hot siren gets tangeled in a fisher's nest*
"Oh no, witcher I'm stuck"
"Hmmm, my medalion is humming"
lol
Someone has been watching the wrong witcher in some weird sites
"Help me, step witcher! I'm stuck"
The Witcher 4: The Wild Porn
One thing that some players have probably missed is the fact that if you free folan after searching for hilmar he will have an extra dialogue with him and if you went to the caves and search for the remaening of hilmar's crew every time gralt find a body folan will have a dialogue about it.
Nah.
I think you mean before finding Hjalmar.
I usually support Cerys just to see Birna Bran punished but it’s always bothered me that you basically do everything for her, whilst Hjalmar is right there fighting with you as soon as you meet up with him on Undvik.
Cerys is the better choice always.
She's intelligent which is whats needed against Black Ones
Or just hjalmar paying his debt to Geralt after the ice giant fight? Besides, I think Cerys would struggle to fight of the wild hunt she doesn’t seem the most mighty of warriors.
Except skellige loses its strength when cerys takes the thorne, theyll live better sure but, in war theyll lose
Never seen the 'Hjalmar into the portal' thing despite 3 or 4 playthroughs. What a bad ass lol.
Damn, I don’t remember Geralt’s voice acting being so subtle. He always speaks coldly but in the funeral dialogue you can sense he is sorrowful. The VA got better and better as the games went on.
I love your videos because although they are fairly short and straight forward its really cool to see things i missed after many playthroughs or lore details i didnt full understand until you make videos covering them
So i found this nice touch at the beggining of the game when you go to talk to the emperor Emhyr, after you talk with him, you will talk to Yennefer. At the end of the dialogue she will teleport away but you can actually run into the portal. You don't go with her but it teleports you in another room of the castle. I found that a nice touch to the scene :)
Yeah I plan on mentioning that ;]
That white armor on Geralt looks so clean
Jeez never been this early
Same dawg!
Did you know that in quest "To bait a forktail..." while useing Witcher senses you end up walking to goat, but there is diffrent Dialogue with Eskel if you get right to him instead of the goat?
Actually I've done this so many times that I never thought to mention it as something rare, normally getting directly to Eskel is faster :) But I suppose I should show it sometime
"Seems like goats are also Witcher bait" or something like that.
what is that sword mod you have at the last seconds of the video? is that SwordFX?
that's the caretaker's shovel from HoS
@@xLetalis I still haven't played the dlcs lol. thought it was a mod. would appreciate if you check out my latest video with TW3 Ultra Modded 2020 showcase
@James Foster I never have enough time to play them properly. I completed HoS last year tho, going to play B&W this summer. this journey will have taken years for me by the moment I finally beat B&W
xLetalis, it is without a doubt that you have the best coverage of Witcher 3 on the net. Hands down.
I love this game so much. There is so much going on and I truly believe there is hours more to discover. My mind will break when cyberpunk comes out. The entire 5 year process of finding all of this in the witcher will have to restart and I might just die before finishing it.
hehe :) I know how you feel
This video+ the comments made me like Hjalmar more as a character. That jump in the portal was awesome
:) Me too tbh
In the epilogue of the good ending (ciri becomes a Witcher) I visited Undvik (before meeting ciri) and tried the go to the tower, but there were fireballs raining down as if the events that happens had continued as the story went on. When I walked up to the tower, the horses that Geralt and Yennefer were riding had remained there, Not only that, if you get to the tower, Avallac’h is standing there with the spell he was conjuring.
I had found this interesting considering the fact that Hjalmar said Cerys was to try to repopulate Undvik.
If this has already been mentioned by someone or in a video, sorry for repeating.
P.s. I’m not sure if this matters but the ending I had was when radovid lived.
I felt Skellige in my bones too playing there.
00:08
Well, since Geralt is dressed like he's in an Assassin's Creed game, he may as well act the part.
I remember the first time I saw Hjalmar tackle that dude. What a legend.
The more .. ."assassin" looking armor and a leap of fate ..
Very cool
@xLetalis I found a rare piece of dialogue during the quest "Missing in Action".
Where you go straight to the hut where Bastian and Rhosyn are staying. Here Bastian says that they both deserted and to find his brother Dune. If you visit the hut after reporting this to Dune, where he gives you no reward by the way, you find Rhosyn's body.
I can't tell if this is just available in New game plus as that is my only play through where I tried this.
I'm planning a video involving that
@@xLetalis Not bad! When should we expect to see that?
@@patrickcollins5125 hopefully before the release of Cyberpunk ;]
@@xLetalis I know you mentioned something of the sort in your latest video, but do you think you will ever upload the witcher 3 content again, once Cyberpunk 2077 comes out, or will you go back from time to time once there is new and interesting content discovered.
On the subject or Cyberpunk and the Witcher, do you think they will add in a Ciri easter Egg at some point . :) (Based on Geralts talk with her when she wakes up on the Isle of Mists.)
"It will be a few weeks until the release of cyberpunk" oooh nooooo.... If only we knew...
oh well!
Another AWESOME Witcher vid, my dude.
This was really interesting to watch.
Thank you :)
(In dandelion's voice) My dear friend Geralt of Rivia destroyed the wild hunt, killed/spared dettlaf. With nothing left to do he decided to join the brotherhood of assassins to destroy a new enemy the Templars.
Jeez that tackle through the portal! Awesome!
Me: *is about to be productive*
Letalis: *uploads video*
It's only less than 9 minutes loss in productivity :)
Thank you very much. I wanted to know this so bad. I had forgotten.
Heh my pleasure :)
4:04 OH WATCH OUT WATCH OUT, SPEEEEAAAAARR!!!
there are some aspects of the game that never gets old, specially, pan quest, help from hjalmar, and sheepy sheepy quest.
Isn't Geralt mates with Cerys too? Hjalmar could be speaking about himself or his sister, so I wouldn't say it's a bug. It is ambiguous though.
Definitely a bug, otherwise he would say a queen for a mate, and wouldn't say duty calls.
@@fartchamber12 is a missing piece of dialogue the same as a bug? it's not an unintended consequence of conflicting scripts, but rather that the audio was never recorded in the first place.
Hjalmar is an absolute badass, if we ever get a Witcher 4 I'd want to see Hjalmar(and Cerys).
This game is a masterpiece, the writing is amazing. Unfortunately judging by what they did with Cyberpunk it seems it will never happen again.
Bethesda, Bioware, now CDPR... sigh.
Can't and shouldn't expect them to make two masterpieces back to back there will always be flaws.
7:10 it's never too late for xLetalis making Witcher videos ❤️
Haha you did a Jack Sparrow in 00:08 😂
This game still gives me chills thanks for the vid
my pleasure :)
You must be a detective that’s incredible
0:47 :)
4:04 omg he actually jumped inside the portal, the absolute madlad 🤣
