The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an action RPG in which you play as Geralt of Rivia, a beast hunter from a group called the Witchers. His supernatural abilities make him a monster slayer for hire, but there’s more to this deep series of games than the combat and missions. You’re sometimes put into moral dilemmas where your decisions can have in-game consequences. One such decision comes when you best Whoreson in battle, leaving him begging you for his life. So, in Witcher 3, should you kill Whoreson Junior?
Kill Whoreson Junior in Witcher 3 or not – Consequences
With Whoreson begging on the floor at your feet, you have two choices: Kill him on the spot, or let him live. He has done horrific things to many women, including injuring Ciri and Dudu. The general opinion is that killing Whoreson Junior is the best option. Not only do you guarantee he can no longer hurt anyone else, but as a consequence, shapeshifter Dudu disguises themselves as him and makes his crime empire into a legitimate business. This is also, as a consequence, better for the city.

If you decide to let Whoreson Junior live, you may or may not get the desired consequence. If you thought he might reform and make something out of himself, you’re out of luck. Instead, he becomes a destitute beggar. The next time you see him, he is close to death, being accosted by children. So, if you wanted to instead condemn him to a slow and painful death, your wish is granted.
