Witcher 3: Choosing to Kill the Nilfgaardian Soldier (Ves and Vernon Roche)

after completing this quest (by sparing the nilfguardian) i coudn't go and talk to vernon roche to ask him to help me in Kaer morhen i got triss and keira do it still only have vernon , ves ,zoltan , etc so if anyone could help would be really awesome ,my current quest is is to go find a captain for a ship to go to skeligge to find Ciri

"a good black one's a dead black one" imagine if some kid's parents walks into their room as soon as Ves says that. Totally out of context. Lol!

This actually does have an effect on the rest of the game. Letting him live ensures that if Nilfgaard wins the war, they will treat Temeria as a true vassal state. Otherwise, they just conquer it

how do i start this quest??

i mean.... roche isn't exactly wearing armour as well.

Dude that was evil man stop

Whoa whoa whoa, geralt is neutral 😐

Does it make a difference in the end though? Like, does it have a consequence if that Black One is killed or not?

I haven't played the first two games and Vess is a game only character, so I am wondering, is there a reason why you don't have much interaction with her in Wild Hunt? I mean, she's a romance option in the second game, right? Did things go extremely downhill between Geralt and Vess?

A good Nilfgaardiam Soldier is a dead Nilfgaardian soldier.

BROCHE

Whether you let them leave or not doesn't make a different at all what so ever.....smh

Why do you skip dialogue?

Hail Milfgaardians.

So the witcher incarage dude to kill solider

Really Vernon Roche. I thought it was a soldiers duty to protect the country they serve, that include the civilians, granted guerillawarfare requries a different approch the regular troop movments.

Instead of donning a breastplate, you dash into battle, shirt open, navel and whatnot exposed!! 😂😂

After the fight i threw a fire bomb at that guy and during the whole cutscene he was like coughing barely alive while being completely on fire

Gonna be honest killed the nilf in my first play through as I thought ves would sleep with you again

these nilfgaardian cunts wanted to kill the whole village of innocent people because a few men helped roche. no way i let him live. this scene proves roche's hypocrisy by the way.

Does Emhyr still give Temerians their country back when you choose Roche after assassinating Rodovid?

I still dont get how ves is wearing that i mean wtf ur a soldier not a stripper

I let roche kill him because I felt that if he lived then eventually the nilfgardians would attack me out of no where. One thing general Shepard thought me was to fix any loose ends.

He calls her boobs whatnots.

Ves exposed herself to distract the enemy in combat

I guess the choice is simply about which moral you value more. Have mercy or don't. But if ask me, it's another conscience check.

I love nilfgaard dead it feel great

I felt horrible when he begged for his life. Though he DID come to murder civilians who would have begged for their lives. And the fact that he saw them gives him tactical knowledge info that can be used against them.

does his death or not have any consequences?

I dont like this Roche guy.

Roche is the biggest homie

I kill him in my first playthrough, and let it live in my second, still thinking the best one is to let him die

if i spared him,he would probably be killed by some ghouls ,so the choice is obvious for me

"You are not my father Roach"

Idk why people are hating on Ves for doing this. Geralt would have definitely done the same if somebody who saved his life is under attack.

Gerald: 'I work for Nilfargard'
Roach: 'Funnily, so do I'
Gerald: 'OMG WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? wHy yOu BeTrAy TeMeRia. I aM sHoOk'

He dies no matter what lol. If you go back to the spot where he was after a day or so, you'll see a loot indicating he passed away.

I let him live. Roche is right. To stand out amongst the common society you should do the unexpected. Showing mercy to an enemy soldier is one of the.

I never played the previous witchers but I fucking hate her jesus christ

I always wondered if sparing him had any later consequences?

Navel and Tits roche, navel and tits

and no one in the nilfgaardian velen army gave a shit to this patrol who went to mulbrydale and never returned. just another day in this wreched land.

Gotta hand it down that CDPR really nailed it with body language.

What consequences does the decision here actually have in the game?

That officer was a hell of an opponent, pity he was not inmune to Fire...
Now on my Second playthrough, I left him live. And still loted his body....
I expect to see him on witcher 5 jejeje. Or some consequence.

Any way to console-spawn nilfgaardian soldiers?

I remember that and also the moment Roche came along with Ves to help with the Battle of Kaer Morhen. He did not like when Letho "Joined" them but still, Roche went through it.
...only for this game to literally force my hands and have him killed over a debate on whether let the Nilfgaardians into Temeria and presumably let Roche live or let Djikstra rule the Northern kingdoms and repel the Black Ones in the process.Why couldn't they just talk it out and settle it like fucking gentlemen do? Like "here, I'll side with Djikstra", so he could have Roche arrested. Nope! Instead the fucking writers in this game appealed to CONTROVERSY and DRAWBACK, so they could have your conscience constantly bashing you because How could you have killed Roche who went the extra mile and helped you whenever you needed him? You guys came a long way since Witcher 2, only to end up like this, HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE THAT?
