Just noticed, theres a book "Temerian Royal Dynasty" that i picked up, mentioned Geralt killed her, but i let her live in TW1. Anyone seeing the same thing? Wanna confirm if its a loophole/mistake on CDPR's side... Sorry im a meticulous player rofl...

Yes, same here. They probably overlooked that specific book, as the journal entry and other references are correct.
I noticed this one too... thought it was rather odd. But the journal entry is correct.
Yes, it's a little jarring (I always let her live), but it means that Adda's death is their default setting for the overarching game narrative. I know that the game is different from the books, but that decision does keep it more in line with the books since Sapkowski's Adda never really recovered mentally from being a striga.
Actually in my playthroughs Adda was mentioned as being alive several times, so it seems they may have simply missed that in the book.

Really? Awesome! It means my save games aren't importing properly, but that's probably my plucky but woefully underpowered system at work. Thanks for the tip.
Yes, Foltest and Radovid mention that Adda is good and well and even thank Geralt for that. However, Radovid, by some reason, doesn't take advantage that he's now the only legitimate king of Temeria.

Ok, well, the boy's a little dim, especially if Dandelion's right and Philippa had to organize her own royal disfavor.

This is entirely plausible, I tried starting a new game with no import and Foltest did say Adda was dead. So I guess saving her in TW1 is non-canon?

Given that it's an rpg with multiple choices, we should probably put an "--ish" on the end of "canon" every time. Adda's death at least appears to be the default setting for TW2, but they had to go with something, so I imagine they took the least complicated option.

I just realized about addas death. For those who let her die, how does Radovid try to justify taking over? In my playthrough, I hear it mentioned multiple times about how she is alive, and the politics of a radovian ruling temeria. How does it play out?

More spoilers....





Temeria lacks a king and is teetering toward civil war while Redania wants stability in its neighbor and trading partner at all costs. Since the Redanian army can police the country and its crown can lead it, Radovid figures he's in there.
rofl thx 4 the fast replies lol... looks like its just the book thats wrong...

I just started playing finally and got the book regarding Adda:
When you read the book from your inventory - it says you killed the monster.
When you check your journal entry that the book gives you - it seems to follow your choice in W1.

When you talk to Foltest at the beginning of the game about Adda being alive I remember him talking about how Radovid can't be the heir to Temeria even though he is married to Adda. Something about how since Adda married out of Temeria she lost her inheritance(/the barons wouldn't accept it) as next in line for the throne, hence the confusion after Foltest's death.

I think he can only use his influence of Adda so far as saying "hey look, I am married to a Temerian, she is awesome; also I have a large army, I win." The Adda bit is more of a side note rather than the deciding factor of why he can try to take over Temeria.
