Talk:Wild Hunt/@comment-188.2.5.23-20150214111409

Hm, should we assume that the devs changed the concept of the wild hunt compare to the books?

Spoiler!!

In the books the spectre elven red riders go to other worlds to kidnap humans to serve as toys and servants to the near ageless elfs that killed all of there humans in the world they invaded, and the whole deal with Ciri was there so that they could regain the means to go to other worlds en mass wich they lost and most could only keep going as spectars.

After the elven king died they changed the idea to killing Ciri to make sure that there world would never be in danger of an invasion from the prophesied son of Ciri who would have even greater world shifting powers and could bring an invasion army to them.

So what sence is there that they had Gerald ride with them? they knew of him but no real reason to think that he knew to wich world Ciri went nor did they seem to need extra hands to kidnap peasants, or what need they had of Yennifer other than keep both of them captive and hope that Ciri would have a vision and come running to the rescue...

So I hope that the the Witcher 3 gives a good explanation of the things that somewhat differ, or seem unresonable, from the source material.

Does anyone have some good theories as to what changes could have the devs made to make the ingame lore make more sence, seems like a good way to spend the time while waiting for the game to come out :).
