Spoilery Questions

[Reyz]

Needless to say, there's gonna be an assymetric arseload of spoilery questions. Turn back while you still can. Also don't hold up on any spoilers of any of the games. I'm practically begging you for spoilers.

Right, so to sum it up, I've reached that point in Chapter IV where you can choose who you side with. I'm pretty tired of the Scoia'tel's shenaningans, so they're dead last on the list.
My issue is that I'm torn between Neutral and Order.

Neutral seems like the most canon-ish path, and I certainly would pick it if it were not for one issue - Siegfried.

He was such a bro up until this point, and I heard he shows up as the Grandmaster in the second game if you go down the Order path, but I also heard Zoltan gets really pissed at you and you'll have to go around killing nonhumans.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
So here's the actual questions:

1.What exactly do you have to do when you side with the Order? Do they go on a massacre killing ALL nonhumans, not just Scoia'tel and you have to assist them?

2.What's Siegfried's stance on all of the above?

3.How does Zoltan react to you joining up with the Order?

4.What's Siegfried's reaction to you going Neutral?

5.Who shows up in the third act of the second game if you went Neutral and spared him? Will the Order still be hostile like in the default world save?

1. You can go on a rampage with White Rayla in a constest to see how many Squirrels you can slay. It's pretty glorious. No civilians, they're all armed, but I think you can opt out if you want.

2. Siegfried rightly hates the Squirrels because they set the city on fire. He's relieved to see you, acts reasonably and keeps his knights in check if you side with him. You work together to reestablish order.

3. Zoltan gets royally pissed, spouts some bleeding-heart Squirrel propaganda and storms off never to be seen again.

4. He's extremely angry but it doesn't have to end violently. Partly due to your betrayal (that's how he feels anyway), his mindset is changed to a more hardline hatred of non-humans and he wants to reestablish order by any means necessary. Basically, with the city on fire and many of his men dead, he doesn't give a damn about trying to discern between squirrels and non-humans. Your friendship understandably ends.

Cheers, guess I'll probably end up taking the fall with Zoltan.
Doubt he can remain pissed for the whole duration of the next two games.

Since we're all spoiled here (I played both this and Witcher 2 all the way through years ago, but only now come back for a second go-round) are there any big changes in Witcher 2 or in the premium modules for 1 (never played them) for your choices?

There's a module "Price of Neutrality" but what if you don't go Neutral at the end of 1?

My Geralt sympathizes with nonhumans but he doesn't condone the Scoiwhatevers actions, so he leans Neutral; but he has a lot of respect for Siegfried and thinks he's a good influence on the Order so he could possibly support the Order... What happens beyond Witcher 1 proper if I go Order then?

On second playthroughs I like to plan everything well ahead.

[Reyz]

Can't say anything for the modules.

As for the second game, Siegfried shows up at Loc Muinne as the new Grandmaster of the Order. I only saw that on Youtube though, so I can't tell you anything precise.

Cool. Thank you.
