Ending question **SPOILERS**

[Mody birdy]

I got the ending where ciri became a witcher, but i heard one of the ending she dies? how does she die? i thought she lives...

[Why So Serious?]

It is not entirely explained. She enters the portal to stop the White Frost, but never returns, so she's presumed dead.

[Mark]

She dies if you treat her badly, have no trust in her etc.
She basically lose faith and never returns

copy past from what i wrote on other thread:

She dies due to few decisions u make along the way,
if u dont go see the grave of her dead love, she loses her spirit,
if you dont tell her "she was born to accomplish great things" she wil lose faith in her self,
if u acompany her to the loudge meetings, she will think shes not strong enough to do things no her own,
if you dont do snowfight with her, she will not have enough of good memories to keep her strong,
if u dont destroy the lab in the tower, she will not be relaxed enough to win the fight.

You can screw one or two things from here if im not mistaken, and she will not die, but if u screw more, she dies.


these important decisions will decide if ciri will have the power to win the fight, or die there.

Does she fake her death and never return or she actually dies?

[Mark]

Dies for real
At the point that Geralt is implied to die as well due to depression

as far as this game goes, she dies. but we never seen the body as they say. but everyone is certain shes dead, even geralt kills himself shortly after.

he just allow the monsters to kill him i saw that ending on youtube today. omg such a sad story if you get this one. I wouldnt know what ot feel if i got Ciri killed and then Gerlat dies too . thats sux big time . overall there isnt perefect ending. people call the good ending the one where Ciri is a wticher . but i think its kinda lame . i got the ending where she going to rule the empire which i consider to be a good ending to everyone overall. but i guess everyone feels diff.

The reason I consider the ending where she becomes a witcher to be the good one is because it's what she has always wanted for herself. Throughout the story, she talks of always having to run because of her power, never being able to "live", so to speak... everyone thinking she died, and becoming a witcher, she no longer has to run and can help people on her terms, in the way she's always wanted.

While becoming empress is not a bad ending, it still keeps her having to watch her back and "having" to do things rather than doing them because it's what she wants.

The empress ending is probably better for the people, witcher is better for her, personally... which is what Geralt cares about imo, as he's never taken an active interest in politics.

I think this is a good ending i like it since its fit the young Ciri you see in the begining of the game . the girl that want to kill monsters. But i also think its a good ending when she become the emporer. i never thought its possbile but it nice to know that a good ruler will rule the empire. Depends what you like. 100% sorry for everyone that got the sad ending where they both dies :( but then again you must be playing really strick with her and probably accpeted the gold when you go to meet Emyer.

Probably not. Remember, she can travel worlds. Even spent half a year living in some sort of sci-fi-world.

Considering she's not an idiot - and obviously does succeed, or the White Frost would not be stopped - my theory is that she went to some sort of tropical paradise world and spent the long rest of her life swimming with dolphins, making out with hot chicks in coconut bras, or possibly swimming with hot chicks and making out with dolphins, or whatever you do as a sexy young woman with godlike powers in a tropical paradise.

I think you're onto something here, which would make it all the more sad that Geralt let himself die.

This could very well be the canon ending. CDPR have stated it's the last Geralt game have they not?

But it's not eternal winter after she 'dies'. So did she defeat the white frost *and* die? Seems unlikely to me.

My theory is the only one that explains how to get the ending.

Basically, IF SHE DIES, the entire ending is f*cking retarded. Why would she die if you drink with her, or dont visit a grave of some guy, but not if you do? Makes no sense.

Now, if she's alive either way but choses not to come back, that makes sense. Do the things she considers wrong and she just might be like "well f*ck that, why go back to a guy who treats me like a dumb child all the time?!".

Also, again: She succeeds. That pretty much proves she didnt die. She has complete control over time and space. Even if she were mortally wounded during her victory, she could STILL have come back to die amongst her family with merely a thought. Or gone to a world where medicine is so far advanced they can save her. Or whatever the hell she wants.
