A great set of games and cool universe. Sadly, either the game devs or the writer of the series sucks at fleshing out the world and having a CONSISTENT TIMELINE! Jesus, i mean look at the timeline of Dragon Age - rich and filled with history, it's very logical and has no massive plotholes. The Witcher has several books and 3 games and has apparently more lore content than all of DA.

The Witcher 1 is supposed to take place in 1273 and not 1270, the latter means that Geralt's time ridding with the Wild Hunt lasted about a month or two. Witcher 1 supposedly takes place in 1270, 5 years after the end of the second nilfgaardian war yet the second war ended in 1268. The second Catronia plague begins right before the Witcher 1 which is supposed to take place in 1270 according to the game yet it's supposed to flare up in 1272.

I have to say that this is probably the poorest complied wiki for a video game series i have ever witnessed. It misses a lot of what is written in the game or books which contradict each other....and it's not regularly updated or edited.

Another thing, Witcher 3 takes place 6 months AFTER the end of Witcher 2 yet witcher 3 starts in May of 1272 while the Witcher 2 ends in July of 1271 - Geralt apparently goes back on the Witcher path in November??? So wtf happened for those 3 months? That's a whole 3 months neglected. What did Geralt do? If i can clearly see the inconcistency of the lore and timline and not being an extreme witcher fanatic then why cant the loremasters at CDPR see this too?

One more thing. Why is Geralt's birth not present here? Didnt the author of the series not bother to give us a date of an important character in the series, i mean he's the protaganoist for crying out loud. Witcher 3 says that Geralt is apporaching 100 so he would likely be born between 1162-1172, oh wait chronologically speaking, the game is supposed to be set in 1275, so Geralts birth is supposed to be between 1165-1175! The lore in this game is frustrating to understand!
