Why side with elves?

[Boost Me;-) minimis]

They attack u first, threat you like ♥♥♥♥ and so on and so forth. While roche is a cool buddy who even helped you escape! wtf ♥♥♥♥ elves, slaughter them all.

personally, i have always choosen to side with the non-humans because they are an opressed race and group of people who are sorely misunderstood, they have an attack first question later attitude because of the genocide and racisim they have continually recieved for many many years.
they have idealistic views on how people can work together as one, while they do have SOME extremists in their leadership roles for the most part are a completely opressed and decolanized group of people who deserve the help for a better freedom and to be without racisim to live as one with humans.

just my personal opinion maybe i think way too much about it. but thats how i see it, and i can see our actual world struggles with these everyday and perhaps that why i became a social worker lol

Wrong question. Thequestions must be " Why side with anyone?" and " What am I suppose to do to get my job done without beeeing used and abused?"

nah man, roche is a cool buddy. the elves in the first game where much more friendly

Roche is a good guy, to realisy that fully you need to go to Vergen next playtrough

I think the game makes pretty clear that elves were more killed by humans than the opposite.

Besides, Iorveth is pretty

Where are benefits of pick Iorveth in W3 nonhumfags? Enjoy your POINTLESS rebellion. As always in nonhum company.

Roche also had you tortured, I went with Iorveth and the elves because I believe in their cause, also because of my friend Zoltan who seemed to stay with me no matter what decisions I made, he seems a true friend. And for the first time I was given a real room at the inn for free, which I never got in any human town.

Slaughter them all ehh, first playthrough I went with Roche and that is his philosophy too, which is why I joined the elves. Remember though that there are no innocents in war.

Yeah it´s not black and white. Roche´s cool, but no saint.

Try to read books and you'll see it's not that simple.

It would be probably difficult to find the book in my native language, and I hate reading online. Really hate it. I like paper.

What was the lore for elves losing top dog status?

Just simply they invaded the country and somehow they well fighted. Its never really explained since the story is in the later books mostly about ciri. The best books are definitly the first and second one. In the books geralt couldnt be neutral because he got attacked(as far as i remembet) by elves and musted defend someone( i think it was ciri).

Elves ignored the fact that human breed like rabbits. By the time they start to worry about it, it was already too late :)


Going to Vergen never means siding with elves , this confusion comes from RPG players that think they gotta join to a league / clan etc.
Wither games is all about neutrality. Simple as that, making Geralt's life harder.

One goes to Vergen for 2 resons.
1. Letho told you that he is going to Vergen, you know that his comrades are there as well. You gotta go to save Triss, whatever you might thing of her, you can not ignore the fact that Triss saved you butt 2 times one in the book on Tannede, one in TW1 on swamp.
2. Roshe keeps dragging your into Temerian problems e.g. save this, kill that, break this, find out that. Even when you tell him that Letho kidnapped Triss and teleported to Aerdin, he wants you to help to deal with Loredo first.


Screw that. Geralt's task is to find Letho.

Whatever happened to playing a game and living with the choices you make, nothing wrong in reading books, I love reading too, why not just play the game for what it is with your head, heart or gut (whichever you want) leading the decisions you make?
