Are those real screens in the GI issue?
CD Projekt RED has provided the screenshots you see here from its current in-game assets running on its Internal PC development hardware. However, the renderer - the part of the engine that translates the game files into what you ultimately see on screen - is still in development and will boast significant improvements by the time The Witcher 3 ships. "Right now you see the game in the old renderer, but it's going to be taken to a truly next level," says gameplay producer Marek ZSiemak. In particular, the developers tell us that skin shaders and the dynamic lighting model will be markedly more advanced in the final version.
No "Fedex Quests."
Hyped!
I'm gonna try to finish W2 before 3 comes out
What's the consensus on the combat mod?
THE WITCHER 3: WILDE HUNTplease change the thread title to this
Should I finish Witcher 2? I love the game but my computer is so poor I can only play it on low and I'm lucky if I get 30 fps.
Today I just discovered that GOG.com is owned by CD Projekt RED :o

No, because I have cause to think nothing but that and we can't have the same thought taking up all of the processing cycles, now can we? Not to mention the emotional fallout. We do have a Three Gorges Dam type installation for that though, so it trickles through in managable amounts.What the fuck was I talking about? :neogaf
super happy this is getting delayed till MayYup. Right there with you. :lol
means I don't have to drop the money on upgradez as soon.
Some of us just built a new pc, tho. :maf
Shame about the delay - There's nothing like a super-long RPG in the freezing cold NY Februrary weather.

Dragon Age: Inquisition, unless you're already playing it.
My PC is already weeping. :stahp
- there are many different types of additional weapons that you can pick up. What's interesting, you need a higher level in order to be able to use it
- weapons (including swords) will not last forever and can be destroyed if used too much. You need to regularly pay a visit to a craftsman to maintain it
- HUD is very customizable. There are several options available, including turning off minimap and all sorts of notifications if you so desire
- all graphical settings are present in in-game menu
- enemies will parry crossbow's bolts with a shields
- skill tree is really massive. There are 5 trees (according to witchersite there was 4, so I'm not sure who is closer to the truth), each has 5 tiers and each tier contains 5 skills. Every skill has 3 or 4 levels to unlock. Even though later Geralt will gain more skill points per level it's still will be impossible to unlock all of it
- after unlocking the skill it needs to be activated. You do that by putting it into separate tree, which contains a limited number of slots (it will increase with character's progress). Activated skills affects Geralt's fighting style. Activating set of skills from the same category will increase it's effects. It adds another layer to preparations and tactical planning, as you have to choose an appropriate set of active skills depending on what kind of opponent you going to face (for example, if you going to fight with heavily armored knights, you can activate Igni upgrade that allows you to melt armors)
- there are also four slots for mutagens, which also affects your abilities
- temporary companions are quite helpful and even use different fighting styles. For example, one woman that accompany them waited for a right moment while enemies were focused on Geralt to backstab them for massive damage
- game is pretty difficult, as you can die even on easy if you're not careful
- some details about dynamic weather: there will be snow, different phases of day/night, different stages of cloudiness, storms, a few types of rain and even a morning mist
- enemy AI is really good. Wolves and bandits spread to cut off all of Geralt's escape routes. If you kill their respective leaders, they end up completely disorganized. One enemy can use himself as a living bait to give the rest of his squad a chance to put Geralt in a corner If you set up a trap or Yrden sign in front of the enemy, he will avoid it
- NPC's models are very diverse and interior of every hut looks different, so there will be no feeling of deja vu
Q: Explain the skills and armors then.
A: Okay. Activated skills determine tactics. You choose (activate) some of them and you have resources to manage (stamina and adrenaline), so behaviour in combat depends on skill choices. In other words, to use your build properly, you cast signs, parry, dodge and hit with you sword more or less frequently. Some skills grant additional signs modes or special blows.
There are 3 types of armor elements: light, medium and heavy. Protection they grant is less important than synergy with combat tactics they are designed for. For example heavy armor favors aggressive swordfighting. But you can mix armor elements to balance bonuses they offer.
If you like to tweak and customize, you'll find it attractive, I think.
Here's the way the skill development works.
There are 4 groups of skills. Swordsmanship, Alchemy, Signs and Miscellaneous. The fifth group some folks were talking about is Mutagens.
As you level up the character, you unlock various skills. You can then assign them to one of the slots. Assigning a skill to a slot makes it active - you can activate and deactivate skills at will making custom builds to suit your current needs best. There are up to 12 slots (+ 4 for mutagens) which are being unlocked as you progress - mutagens modify skills making the skills stronger. To make mutagens even more effective, it's best to use the same type of mutagen and skills in one combination.
We've talked about it but ultimately there will be no presets.
Though I do kind of want to see how it runs on my 270x first.
Trying not to get hyped here.
Although, to be fair to your friend, CD Projekt Red is also head and shoulders above developers like Reality Pump and Piranha Bytes.
You're right but I was mainly annoyed by his attitude that we're somehow inherently better over here due to our finely honed production pipelines and they couldn't catch up. I think that's a load of horseshit as evidenced by CD Projekt Red's very quick rise in quality. There's a lot of brilliant talent in small studios all over the world. All you need is to have someone in Production getting everything running correctly and you'll see a huge change of quality.
We spoke with CD Projekt Red today and confirmed that all The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt digital copies will unlock at 1 AM CET on May 19. This translates to 4 PM PDT / 7 PM EDT on May 18 for gamers in the United States.
According to the game's product pages, the PC and PS4 editions weigh in at around 35 GB, while the Xbox One version is about 25 GB.

I hope the combat is improved in 3.
Attacking can either be smooth as fuck, or extremely frustrating with how slow and shit Geralt handles his one (!) sword. It's a step up from Witcher 1's stupid juggling of stances, at least.

i felt like in W2 it was all about spell casting upgrades. i upgraded the shit out of my sword skillz on my last W2 playthrough and it didnt seem to have much of an effect. rolling dodge upgrades were cool, but everything else im not sure was worth it.
Gonna marathon this bitch this weekend (Witcher 2) and try and finish it, or at least Roche's side.

Responsiveness is all I wanted tbh.
I like the W2 system, but playing it back, there's too many instances of my ass dying straight out of a cutscene because Geralt is still pulling his fucking sword out while the enemy is taking shots. Like fuck come on son
That feel when you exceed the recommended, and not just minimum specs
:aah
Its totally stupid on my part cause I sell every game, buy I feel like buying this on psn.
I never finished witcher 1 and never really played 2 as a consequence (although I do have it).

I was worried about the combat at first, but after seeing all the footage of battles, it looks like something that will be fun to master. Especially after getting upgrades in parrying and arrow deflection. There is an upgrade that will send the arrow back at the person who shot it, killing him. :noah

Don't get why people are making an issue of no black people in the game... I can't recall any black people in the other Witchers. Nor would I imagine medieval Poland had much in the way of black people there.
Anyways, I'm a bit bummed that the PS4 version apparently sucks. Was hoping to get that since I want to play this game but can't run it on my laptop (which ran #2 fine in 720p). Now it's not like I can sit down and play through this for a few months but is the PS4 one bad enough to wait a few years out till I get a new laptop?

In principal I want to agree with him, but he's being such a cockhanded idiot about it that I can only groan. He will die on that hill just to spite the shit-flingers, because that's what's actually fuelling his zeal.
Also, while I did not by any means see every city, burg and outpost in The Witcher 3's world in my 70+ hours spent within it, I don't recall a single non-white humanoid anywhere — not in Skellige, Novograd, Oxenfurt or anywhere else. Once I realized this I couldn't stop looking for any example of a person of color anywhere, and I never found it, unless you count naked monster women sitting at the feet of a boss like a slightly more awkward tribute to a Frank Frazetta painting. But maybe they're in there, somewhere. -Gies
Decided to try to play through Witcher 2 a few days ago before 3 comes out which I never beat and only vaguely remember. I forgot how good it still looks. It was probably the first next gen game of this gen before this gen.
As far as the diversity stuff, yeah I'm generally in favor of it since the arguments for why there aren't diversity in these faux middle age fantasy pieces tend to be bullshit but whatever. I'd rather direct it at the genre in general and say its a genre problem versus singling out one specific title or work to hammer home with.
We know why there is no diversity in it. The creators are polish people in a society where there isn't a lot of diversity in skin color. You tend to create art based around what you see everyday and sometimes its not an evil willful thing but just a case of it is what it is. Which doesn't necessarily make it terrific but I get it. It's a larger discussion than necessarily trying to beat up one individual game.
Might get on xbone. Any word on how the console versions are fairing? I'm not about to dive into a gaf sewer thread.

just downloaded the 1.01 patch from here: http://patch0.thewitcher.com/witcher3_patch_1.01.exe, and everything worked fine afterwards.
That kid took some of his money and bought a game called Alien Colonial marines.
Why?
Because I was sitting there watching that movie with him and he loved the thing. His favorite part was when they set up the automatic machine guns and they went off and he knew when the guns were going off by looking at the counter tick down.
Aliens obviously.
He spent the money he got from this very site to buy that game. It was a horrid broken mess as we all know. And he wanted to buy it and I insisted that I do it for him and he insisted no, he was going to buy it because there were great internet people that helped him and it he wanted to let them know he had fun and spent that 40 bucks wisely so I made him a steam account, he downloaded it, and I bought him a nice gaming laopop to play it on since he was in his bed.
The game crashed constantly. Completely bug ridden as I found out later, and then knowing later through my contacts that the company... fuck it.
This kid looks up to me and says, "This game doesn't work that well......" I tried to fix the computer, over and over, I gave him 5 laptops, nothing changed it. He said, "The movie was better I think".... And All I could think of, was that fuck, ********* covering his ass while he was being sued by ******** for 3rd party, yes.... what a mother fucking bastard.
But those ads were awesome. You looked at the screen on the TV and you can sucker those casuals into buying your product or those moms and dads without thinking twice.
9 weeks later, that kid died.
You can see from why I am so adamant about being ethical when it comes to these games? Honeslty, no internet shit, have you ever had to explain to a kid that had some funds to spend to help him out and make him smile, and loved a game that oh well, "Those publishers suck I guess, lets go call it a life!"
Yeah some may think I am nuts. How about owning up to your product and not being an unethical fuck. Has that ever once entered some minds.
Witcher 3 will be fine. What got me was the usual defense of obvious bullshit deflection.
Let me clue you in developers. We don't owe you SHIT. We bought your product, and sometimes off false promises and unfinished product. The hell you fucking say we are entitled for feeding YOUR family. Get off your fucking high horses and realize that false advertising is bullshit, and all your viral garbage will not make a few decent people go away.
Doesn't matter to you. You made your cash.
oh dear, game crashed after the last tutorial cutscene.
i hope it isn't consistent. :-\
game please stop constantly crashing :'(
let me love you :-*
I turned off hairworks, but even before I did I had no crashes. You playing on pc or shitty dirtperson version, steve?
I'm crash/issue free too. Maybe it's that 16gb of ram and i7?
finished witcher 2 again in time, see that my distinguished mentally-challenged tattoo carries over. :rejoiceWow! I think I got it removed on my save. Now I wish I hadn't. :lol
Only one game complaint thus far: the fall damage.
Geralt flat out dying from some falls I'd easily survive. This mutant knight ninja kicking the bucket anywhere after 13 feet :dead
What this stuff about choices you have To make if havent got a savegame?
If you say you don't want to 'simulate a savegame' you make choices that you'd have made in w1 or w2(? not sure it all blended together lol)

I thought it was the opposite. If you simulate a save game (which is on by default at least on xbox one version) then you meet someone later who basically asks you questions that creates your save game states.

this game is a whole lot better than that one other fantasy rpg that came out last year
This game was what reviewers and all those goty award stuff wanted Dragon Age and Shadow Of Morder to be. Those games were different and decent in their own right, sure. But let's not act like the crazy critical love for both of them overrated them highly.
Witcher 3 just eclipses them overall. Waaaaay better game and a lot more fun. I don't even find the story and lore meh here. Witcher's world is just a lot more interesting. I like when a fantasy setting is a lot more than just orcs, elves and dragons.

The side missions were especially shit in Inquisition. Not only in what you were doing, but they had all the emotional level of reading a dime store comic book. As a general thing Bioware is too concerned with so clearly delineating between good and evil that it makes everything feel kiddy. Good entertainment nowadays is all about living in the grey moral areas and the witcher universe is much more at home there.
For me it's different, mostly because I find any and all typical fantasy shit to be boring and lame as fuck. Zelda is all this is good and this is evil but I like it cause at least it's very distinctive in that respect. Yes, that Zelda.
Either way. The Witcher's world is just its own thing fantasy wise in regards to videogames. And that's why its a lot more interesting to me than LotR or something that's trying to have those exact fantasy tropes as what's appealing to its setting.
Yes I brought up Zelda, make fun of me cause I deserve it.
The Witcher is great but I wouldn't even say it's more unique than Dragon Age when you boil it down. Epic dark fantasy, swords and sorcery, forestdwelling elves and mountain miner dwarves, dragons, sorceresses, an Elric-lite protagonist with similar gray moral proclivities, a nomadic 'Nordling' kingdom being put to the sword by the better equipped and organized, more temperate empire composed of client states.spoiler (click to show/hide)All by the numbers medieval european design and white participants/inhabitants.[close]

Also love that when adjusting camera sensitivity, the range is 0.5 - 1.5 for whatever reason, with arbitrary jumps to numbers like .6899999 for whatever reason.

times like these you gotta ask yourself, what would Ubisoft do?
So I couldn't get into the last Dragon Age on accounts that I couldn't give a shit about anything that was happening in the game (likely due to the fact that I hadn't played the first two) and the dialogue was kind of dumb and combat was sorta naff, plus the travel and loading screens between zones made the game feel strangely disconnected. On the other hand I love the shit out of Skyrim and all its goofy broken shit. Is there any reason why I'd like Witcher 3?
Saw my first boob. :obama
only had two sit through two 20 minute scenes of Geralt in a tub. or is there a third one to look forward too? :aah
70 hours? I was just thinking I'd have to do some explaining to the wife for playing 9 in the past 2 days. :lol
Any advice on the best way to utilize ability points in the early game?
Igni tho
:lawd
Yes! I really loved that in W1, preparing with potions and oils before every contract. I play W3 on hard for that reason alone, hoping they won't be as optional as in W2.
Not feeling the combat so far though. I guess it gets better with a couple upgrades and once I've accustomed myself to Geralt's range and enemy behaviour. Movement I only find annoying when I'm trying to loot containers, because taking a single step is strangely difficult, at least using keyboard controls. Gonna give it a spin with a controller, see if that helps.

CDPR is like a Polish Bethesda, the jank is a feature.
No, I get it, I've dabbled with the previous two games. I just, you know, thought they might've gotten a little better about shit like that over the years. Like I said, my shit crashed...during a card game.
But the sunsets!
Is there a way to cook raw meat? Feels like it definitely should be, but I'm not seeing it.
Maybe Geralt should have kept that frying pan :heh
Crowd control is no joke in this game. It's one of the reasons why i'm seriously considering investing in Yrden and Igni more.
I like it, because fighting multiple opponents should be incredibly difficult wrt spacing and timing, but sometimes it can be a bit frustrating.
Unfortunately that means i'm not going to upgrade alchemy again :tocry
I've got 3 in fast attack, 2 in Igni so far. Gotta do lots of tumbling and try to get the battle to happen on your terms with just 1 monster at a time if possible if you're on foot. Putting points in fast attack seems legit pretty much no matter what, because then you hit harder with your fastest attack, decreasing the amount of time it takes to kill things. Igni is there to push shit off of me if I start to get surrounded.
Also, I accidentally forged a lv 13 silver sword because I wasn't paying attention.
:tocry
Even though this game is seemingly jank central your luck continues to be real shitty in regards to these things man :-\
I've had only 1 crash in the some 10 hours I've put in.
It was during a chase with a guy on a horse.

It was during a chase with a guy on a horse.
If this is the quest in the prologue I'm thinking of, I didn't crash here, but I had an interesting bug. So, the guy takes off on horseback, I get a loading screen. I hear stuff going on, and the load takes inordinately long. Finally, load fades and it cuts to a game over screen. All right, continue from last save. Go through the dialogue again, cut to loading screen. Still taking an inordinately long time. Load fades, and I'm in the midst of getting mauled by a pack of like 5 wolves. And I don't just mean that there happened to be five wolves around that I wasn't prepared for. I mean that this fight started while the loading screen was still displaying. I was down to about half my life bar by the time I was able to see anything.
What kind of ability spec are y'all going for?
I just keep dumping everything into fast attack :hitler and now a little bit in Quen.
Nothing like coming across a lynch mob of dirt poors, and in the ensuing fight you end up doing those finishing animations on everyone of them.

The underwater ruin in Velen, with all its obstacles and monster hazards, really showcases the strength of this game's swimming mechanics.:hitler
What is it with games not giving you storage banks. Neither Witcher 3 nor Inquisition had it (Inquisition added it later in a patch) even though prior editions in both series did.
Do they expect me to be efficient or something. I'm a pack rat.
Game is just great so far. Probably the best experience for me since Red Dead or maybe Mass Effect 2.Yup. It feels like this is what the series was meant to be like from the beginning.
CD Projekt RED are just wow. They keep making huge leaps with each game. This game in particular just makes Witcher 1 and 2 seem quaint for what they were but they were always building to something of this caliber. And that universe is so much better served by the transition to an open world experience.
The Witcher: Enhanced Edition was one of the first PC games I bought back in 2008 when I built my first computer. It was pretty hot stuff back then. :rock
Witcher 1 was a slideshow for me until a 2012 upgrade
How do you think this will run on a GTX 680? Ram and CPU are fine.Medium to high should be fine if this chart is to be believed.
I want to go do side stuff, but the main quest is so compelling. :lawd
Starting to feel a little under leveled. As soon as I get out from beating the hunt dude, the first pack of bandits slaughter me.
This game. :hyper
I'm not sure that the side quests in this game are per se "better" than other open world games, although they seem to be more enjoyable. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that a lot of the lore and backstory for witchers establishes them as monster slayers for hire, so you feel like you're doing something you're supposed to when you take on contracts? Anyway, side quests definitely seem to shit all over the usual mmo "get me 10 of this stupid thing" type of quest.
The sidequests have depth in them relative to other games. Moral complexity. And in a few cases actually damn good voice acting. This is backed up with an interesting universe where you can essentially play as a slightly more neutral batman type figure.
This is the way rpgs should be.
Compare to this the rote way I often played Inquisition where I put on a podcast or some other form of audio stimulation and just went about grinding and clearing out maps in that game in a mind-numbing manner. The difference is about as stark as you can make it.
Ubisoft games and Inquisition litter their games with these fake mmo open world experience where you put a billion icons on the map and that is supposed to be fun. Witcher 3 puts a lot of on icons on the map but there is actually meat on those bones. It's damn impressive.
There is always going to be blowback on any highly rated game once some time has passed and a game is evaluated, nitpicked, and dissected and the same will happen to the Witcher 3 but man this game is great. My normal stop signal for a gaming session is when I start to get bored and that generally takes 2 or 3 hours. But everytime with witcher 3 is because I run out of spare time to play it. That's always the sign that I'm playing something that for me is special.
:lol holy shit the swimming controls are bad, like "what the fuck were you even thinking?" kinda badI haven't had trouble with them?
I think we all have a slightly different barometer of jank versus quality and what we are willing to accept on that sliding scale.

The thing is coming after Dragon Age Inquisition, this is exactly what I wanted. That's a game that has all the polish but loses its soul imo. Still a good game. Still very enjoyable.
But Witcher 3 is just what I wanted from Inquisition so it hits all the right marks for me.

Big part of it too is the monsters in this aren't just monsters. There's usually some mythology behind them, typically a source of misery that birthed them. You have to deal with the griffon because of dickhead soldiers etc.
If I fuck one chick can I fuck the others no hassle?spoiler (click to show/hide)I finished one Kiera side quest and am about to do another, found out that leads to poon town. Was wondering if the game pulls a Mass Effect where you can only go with one. Cause if so I'm going Yennefer all the way.[close]
While most of our comparison work was carried out using a Core i7 3770K system with 16GB of RAM and a GTX 780 Ti, we found that applying our learning in terms of console-level quality settings allowed us to get a decent gameplay experience with far more modest hardware. Running through the game using our preferred budget PC set-up, featuring a Core i3 4130 and an Nvidia GTX 750 Ti, we found that we could achieve visual quality and frame-rates equivalent to the PS4 version of the game.
Any bone user here? does the game use rumble triggers?I'm playing on xbox. Honestly, I can't remember. I don't think so...
that baron questline ending :hyper
can't savescum your way out of that one.
Now that I've sat with the game a bit I finally figured out what game it reminds me of. Red Dead Redemption. Even down to how Geralt can only walk in wide circles :lol
Yeah, same here. Probably why I love this game so much compared to the old Witchers, which I found to be alright at best.

The game does rumble a lot but rumble is confusing in this game as I'm never quite sure what its rumbling about.
I'll try to pay attention never time I play to confirm about the trigger stuff.

Im having trouble finding quests my level since I moved to Velen, am I always supposed to do quests above my level?
Or does green mean "try it"
Where do I find the Swallow potion recipe? :shaq2
It's kind of bullshit you can fail quests or parts of quests so easily. I failed some merchant quest because I couldn't get on my horse on time to run him down, and I just failed a part of a quest because I was just walking around and walked too close to some women I was supposed to eavesdrop on. I didn't even know I was supposed to eavesdrop on them until I was alerted that I had failed it. You should be able to restart that shit.
Gotta keep that secret anyway. :shhspoiler (click to show/hide)I sent her to Kaer Morhen. I'm really, really hoping for a nice catfight at the end. :heh[close]

i just got the Cat School Armor made. its fucking coool :noah

I'm wearing the Griffin set because it's the second I'd completed (Warrior being the first), but it's really ugly. Barely looks like armour. Working on the Cat school set though, already have several enhancements for it.
Finally some new saddlebags, too. From 90 to 130 [units]. :rejoice
Had a pretty big glitch in Novigrad today. Everyone was in Jesus poses, with their head detached, off to the side somewhere.
I also found two spots where you can trap yourself and have to reload. One is a shipwreck you can't climb out of any more and the other some random hole in a swamp. If only Geralt could jump in knee deep water.
Another recurring issue I've had are NPCs that are stuck in some sort of animation, making me unable to talk to them. The smith in Black-something, specifically, but I've had it with others too.New patch is out today for the PC version::rejoiceQuote-A few additional gwent cards are now available in the Prologue area.*

*I hope the cards aren't on the barkeep, because she hasn't showed up in my game after I sent heads flying right in front of her. :I
Want to go to Skellige but theres just sooo much to do in Velen and Novigrad still :noahNovigrad is insane. So much stuff.
Low low key: this game desperately needs a 'homestead' or storage area for geralt. I'm trying to craft all these enhanced Witcher sets but only have 130 carrying space wtf m8 :beli
Yes I have the best saddlebags :beli
I'm sitting on like 14000 crowns at this point, I don't need to keep selling shit really.
I don't care if it breaks the lore or w/e. Give me a quest that lets me earn an abandoned property in oxenfurt or novigrad pls. this is like a 70-80 hour game with some beautiful loot.
Looks like I fucked up the Baron questline a bit...spoiler (click to show/hide)I freed the spirit trapped under the hillock to save the kids, so the crones punished Anna by turning her into a monster... when I went back to Crookback Bog with the baron I kinda sorta maybe chose the wrong doll and she turned back into a human for a bit, then died. So, after that the Baron hung himself back at Crow Perch... guess I'll never get any gwent cards off of him now.[close]
How do you guys feel about the downgrade fiasco?
Took on a level 7 quest at level 4. Got wrecked by a werewolf a couple of times before figuring out his pattern. Then he starts up a regeneration spell and starts healing faster than I can damage him.
I guess I'll either get gud or level up (or craft a silver bomb).
Ride this out lol, no one cares :comeon except a small but loud contingent of stupid spergs.
Very, very few people would be able to take advantage of the "upgraded" graphics anyway, as most people don't have a $3,000 rig. And in the next 2-3 years it'll take for everybody to catch up, something with better graphics will have come out.

It's very comical to watch them twitch and jitter over it. There'll be some fresh new outrage before the year's out for them to soliloquize over, though
Gotta say just like W2, once you reach a certain point the difficulty curve goes awry. Somewhere around level 13-16? Now normal is too easy. Might have to turn it up if I can.

yeah I'm replaying witcher 2 on my 'modest' 970 and while most settings are cranked up, I still can't do ubersambling. back in 2011 my similarly modest 560ti was medium/high and wasn't getting a smooth frame rate.It's very comical to watch them twitch and jitter over it.

you'd think eventually they'd learn to take promotional footage with some skepticism instead of doing this downgrade!! thing every couple weeks.

Gotta say just like W2, once you reach a certain point the difficulty curve goes awry. Somewhere around level 13-16? Now normal is too easy. Might have to turn it up if I can. TBH the hardest encounters in this game are actually the ones with a group of humans rather than big powerful monsters. With the monsters you can usually prepare with an oil, usually only one target to roll or dodge away from, and spamming thunderbolt/quen/swallow pretty much guarantees you can waste anything near your level, especially if you're pumped up with a mutagen in the right slots.
The next time I play this it'll be on Broken Bones and i'll go for a potion and Axii/Aard/Yrden heavy build. Too easy to just stack up sword skills and Quen and wreck shit.
Im wondering if there is such a thing as a bad build, im putting all my points into igni so far
Ps: looking forward to downgranger over battlefront
The Skellige Islands are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in a game.

It helps that the enemy AI is really, really dumb in most cases so matches aren't hard to win. Fun little game, though.Yeah, it's easy to exhaust their hand in the first round, Monsters especially. A single frost card, whatever it's called, breaks their back completely because they're so heavily melee based.

Nilfgaard is really fun to play as and play against. Turning a draw into a win would be so much fun against human players.
I haven't played gwent either. No time.
I still need to play Gwent. Getting tired of seeing those contracts on my secondary board >:(

There's this quest with having to clear out a manor at some point.I did the exact same thing. Figured I could just repair my sword halfway through and keep going. High level wildlife is no joke.
Came across this giant wood monster with horns that somehow wandered into the area. Was like fuck it, he's almost 10 levels above me but slow enough for me to take down.
Beat him down to 50% health then he summoned wolves. Motherfucking level 22 wolves at my 10.
Couldn't do it.

Still level one and supposed to fight the griffon.

I found a Witcher Silver sword diagram.You sure it needs a master and not a journeyman? There's one in Oxenfurt and in Novigrad. The one in Oxenfurt is easier to find, just go along the east wall.
But you can't make it without a master smith.
The master smith needs a quest completed to access him.
It's a fucking level 24 quest. The diagram is for a level like 9 sword.
The fuck ???

Yeah, I'm definitely bugged. Shit sucks, I have a bunch of free time this weekend and really wanted to catass the game.

Haven't hit the XP glitch, but little bugs are starting to wear on me, like the talk trigger not appearing over quest givers and having to save/reload to get it to reappear.I see that a lot when I travel quickly, especially in Novigrad where it doesn't prioritize which NPCs to load first (I assume that's the issue). On PC at least it helps if you turn around and walk around a bit or even meditate an hour. Let it 'settle' a bit.

What sort of strategy do you go for with a Nilfgaard deck? I'd like to play other factions than Northern Realms but I'm not sure what to do, tbh.
Geralt will not longer interact with candles near chests and other interactive elements.There is at least one quest where you need to light something to progress (opens a hidden door), so now I wonder if they broke that. :lol

http://witcher3map.com/s/#3/-35.00/-10.00
Is there some sort of glitch where the game just won't boot up? Mine won't, says I have to be connected to Xbox Live(which I am).
33 hours and I still haven't even gone to Skellige once.Pretty sure I'm clocking that much now after some long ass run of nothing to do but sit on my ass and play.
I read the book explaining shit about the Hillock questYyyeah...

:heyman
- Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative. (Moo? Moo-moo-moo.)
- Fixes an issue where runestones could not be upgraded to greater runestones. (How about those that don't stack or the Chernobog that plain don't work?)
- Reduces the spawn time of selected groups of NPCs. (Fucking smiths.)
- Improves Geralt's movement, especially when he swims. :rejoice
- Introduces new filters for the Alchemy and Crafting panels.
- Fixes an issue where players could not talk to Octo after the Lord of Undvik quest. (We gotta go back, Kate. :tocry )
- Fixes an issue where the player could not talk or otherwise interact with certain NPCs. (Fucking smiths #2)
-Deploys the Bovine Defense Force Initiative.
Apparently (well, not apparently, because it happened to me, so it's definitely a thing) after that patch there's a bug where if you've already crafted something you can't craft more of it... which sucks for mutagens.Yuu can bypass this by dropping them on the ground, craft one, drop it too, craft, etc. then pick them all up. Fucking video games. :goty2
:neogaf
The level requirements for quests are puzzlingly distinguished mentally-challenged. Go to Novigrad, suggested level is 12. Get to Novigrad, find a bunch of level 7-8 quests on the notification boards :lolI find that only the Witcher stuff is worth the time. Unfortunately it also means everything you pick up henceforth is vendor fodder, unless you want to switch into something that's got good defence against human weapons, which Witcher gear lacks (because Witcher's aren't supposed to get hit by humans).
Also every good piece of armor I find or build looks like some old hobo's jizzrag :(
I mean, just look at this shit:

Looks like something his grandma made him out of an old blanket
"take a picture of yourself when you're out there witchin' so i can see you wearing it, honey"
They all upgrade too so if you have one you really like hold on to it. Or be like me and hold onto all of them.I lug all of them around too. Constantly at 120/140 weight. It's not like I need money at this point, so I leave most stuff where it is, but still.

How does one even upgrade armor/weapons? Will it increase it's durability?You find the upgrade recipe, which incorporates the piece from the previous tier into the recipe, so hang onto the normal feline armour to make the advanced, etc. You can only upgrade Witcher gear though. Durability is always the same, I think, wear and tear just depends on how often you get hit or have to use your sword.
Just played the best main mission in the game:spoiler (click to show/hide)you play as both Geralt and Ciri in two boss fights. One where it's Ciri against the Crones and the other is Geralt vs. a guy from the Wilde Hunt. Actually badass cut scenes as a lead up and end to both. The Wilde Hunt guy was cool as shit with all sorts of succubus bitches around him as he lounged like Shao Kahn. Just metal as fuck.
I regret killing Keira :tocry she would have been really helpful with contacting the sisters of the lodge[close]
spoiler (click to show/hide)did getting Lambart pussy on the reg stop his constant bitching? This would make starting a new save right away worth it alone.[close]
One of the things that I was disappointed about with The Witcher 2 was that it felt like they had to skimp on the content relative to original game. I mean, I put a good bit of time into it, but it topped out at about 30 hours, aside from taking the alternate route at the end of the first major section. So far, I've played The Witcher 3 for 45 hours and I still haven't once ventured into the second major zone of the game because there's still a ton of stuff left to do in the first zone. There's just so many quests, both major and minor, and I keep finding more and more to do. And it's all really well made, none of that "collect ten widgets" MMO quests, but real content with story and lore to go along with it.
It puts to shame virtually every other major RPG released in the past fifteen years, with very few exceptions.
I'm actually really scared for Cyberpunk now because I don't see how it could be any better than this and I tend to favor scifi moreso
:brazilcry
Getting some mad motion sickness from this game :(Try locking the framerate with RivaTuner Statistics Server (it's bundled into MSI Afterburner, but I think there's a separate download on guru3d). Frametimes are very uneven with the built in limiter. Turn off in-game vsync too and force it through your GPU drivers.
Going shelve it until there's a FOV mod
If I play this game do I have to pay attention to what anyone says, or give a fuck about the plot at all? This is serious talk, because if I do no sale.

that's more or less the primary appeal of this game.
look who's stanning for polacks :badass
Playing last night, I actually found myself struggling with how to handle the Now or Never questline re: Triss. This game actually has me invested in Geralt's love life. I don't know if that's a testament to the game's writing or an indication that something has gone terribly wrong with my life given that I actually give a shit about which sorceress a professional monster killer is banging, but I'm willing to put good money on it being the latter.
After I did the first questline with Kiera I explored a bit and found Fyke island and all the spooky ghosts. Thought it was p cool, just a cool spooky place, nbd.
Then I went back to Kiera later on and got her second questline and she was like "Let me tell you about this haunted island."
And to my surprise Geralt was all "Yeah, been there, wasn't so bad, nbd"
The fact that he totally acknowledge that I found the place was really impressive to me.
The Crones of Crookback Bog tho
spoiler (click to show/hide)Well, she doesn't need the mutations because she has her blinking magic, right? No reason to risk killing her with the process, either.
The part where she goes to destroy Caranthir's staff is pretty cool. Aim at enemy, blink, dead, aim at enemy, blink, dead. It was like Flicker Strike from PoE. :uguu[close]
If anyone has skipped over the quest to help Dandelion open his caberet, go do it immediately. It's seriously one of the best quests I've done so far.

Keep getting 5xp for green quests, this sucksIt won't matter. I waited to do story quests till I had done all the side stuff, was 28 when I picked up Uma. A couple quests later I was 30, and I ended with 34 or something like that. They rain XP on you.
Uma? Is this a spoiler?No, not really. It will only make sense once you get there.
Im 20 now and think ill just move ahead with the story (on.skellige), dont want to overlevel even more.
One of the two DLCs that just came out added a wolf school set.
Toku, try this if you've got the same issue:

Im 20 now and think ill just move ahead with the story (on.skellige), dont want to overlevel even more.
FYI, there's a point of no return for some quests (Gwent being one of them, I think) on Skellige. They warn you when you get there and tell you to save. Recommended level is 22. I was 28 when I did that. It's strange like that. It would have made more sense to scale every enemy except the contract monsters and the ones guarding treasures.
There was a time where the same 2 swords for a good 10 levels. Now swords are dropping every quest it feels like.
I have so many open quests I can't see myself ever doing all that.
In some respect I would say that is a shame, or "bad" design, but in reality I think this is exactly how such a game should be. The game is so rich on content that playing through it feels natural and real. You won't get to see everything. You won't get to do everything. This is a real world and you're just making your way through it, in any way you want.

I found that giant tree earlier this week but I couldnt figure out how to get to it. There's a bunch of weird cliff terrain that you can't climb. The whole are seemed to be meant for another time.The main quest sends you there eventually.
I know I'm behind a lot of people, but I just wanted to comment that I was cracking up at the scene where the witchers are all drinking at Kaer Morhen. I just kept going along with all of the dumb questions just to see how far that went. Great stuff.

A new, alternative (optional) movement response mode for Geralt.
A player stash for storing items, available in various locations throughout the game. Stash locations are marked on the player’s map.
Crafting and alchemy components no longer add to the overall inventory weight.
Books are now placed in a dedicated tab in the Inventory and books that have already been read are properly grayed out.
Multiple sorting options are now available in the Inventory.
Alchemy formulas and crafting diagrams can be “pinned”, meaning all components and ingredients required to make them will be conveniently marked in the Shop panel.
Dozens of fixes for quest related issues, both major and minor.
A few performance enhancements, including the optimization of FX, scenes and general gameplay.
Various improvements to horse behavior.

You just talked to him? Or you actually saved him? I remember this. Not a lot going on here story-wise but I'll spoiler tag it just in case.spoiler (click to show/hide)When you talk to him, he tells you that he loses to everyone who challenges him but always comes back. So when the battle starts, you land a few blows on him and he "loses" long before his health bar is depleted. The trick to this one is to throw the fight. Let him hit you and after a short period (again, well before your health bar is depleted), he'll thank you for letting him win thus breaking his curse to lose for all eternity.[close]
Update is live.
Right before you find Ciri:spoiler (click to show/hide)What's with the rando Snow White and the Seven Dwarves thing?[close]
I just sold it like 3 days ago :lol
Regarding some of the questions that appeared since yesterday, here are some answers.
Enemies will be stronger obviously.
What carries over?
Player experience (if you're below level 30 when finishing the vanilla game, you will be bumped to level 30 for the start of NG+), items (excluding: quest items, books & letters, Gwent cards, usable items, trophies) and alchemy recipes.
When starting New Game Plus you can select any difficulty level.
You can obtain the Death Match achievement when playing the NG+ mode.
What's the starting level of the character when beginning NG+?
The same that you had when finishing the game, if above 30, otherwise you start at 30. You also get a free Clearing Potion at the start so you can reset your skills and try a different build.
This game brehs :noah

In patch 1.07, the level requirements for certain items were scaled up, leaving some players stuck with only unusable gear. With patch 1.08, we are introducing the Wolven Hour potion. This potion will be available in everyone's inventory once they install the patch. It will reduce level requirements on all gear for a period of one hour. This will give players time to level up or find alternative equipment using the gear that was available to them in patch 1.05 but became unusable after patch 1.07. After one hour, the potion's effects will cease and the requirements for all gear will revert to their original, pre-potion values.
PERFORMANCE:
Overall improvements to performance, including some issues that may have been caused by 1.07.
UI:
[Japanese Only][PS4 Only] Fixes an issue where the background text of certain books would flicker.
Fixes an issue where part of the Kaer Morhen map would not display properly.
GAMEPLAY:
Fixes a rare issue where items would disappear from the stash.
Fixes a very rare issue which would cause Geralt to get stuck when trying to run.
The interaction pop-up will no longer appear on lootable objects that are empty.
Fixes an occasional glitch in one of the dwarf combat animations.
Heads chopped off during finishers will no longer disappear.
"Players can perform a roll just before landing to significantly reduce the damage caused by falling.
We've added a tutorial pop-up window explaining this to make it clearer."

Fixes an issue where Geralt would sometimes die after traveling to Velen in the quest "Something Ends, Something Begins."
The entrance to the area where the Sunstone is obtained will no longer be blocked off if the player exits it prematurely during "The Sunstone" quest.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to complete the "Get Junior" quest on certain occasions.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to finish the "Scavenger Hunt: Viper School Gear" quest due to a closed gate.
Fixes an issue where some players were unable to investigate rooms during the "Family Matters" quest, effectively blocking their progression.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to finish the "Hey, You Wanna Look at my Stuff?" quest.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to talk to Roche during the "An Eye for an Eye" quest.
Fixes an issue where Roche would stay at his camp instead of going to the Oxenfurt Bridge in the "Get Junior" quest.
Fixes an issue where, under certain circumstances, Yennefer would not appear in Oxenfurt during the "The Great Escape" quest.
Drowners will have a harder time killing Nidas during the "Black Pearl" quest.
Fixes an issue which led to an infinite loading screen during the "To Bait a Forktail..." quest under certain circumstances.
Fixes a rare issue where the basement was locked during the "King's Gambit" quest.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to free the merchant during the Person in Distress event in the Claywich area.
The trolls at the Circle of Elements will no longer attack Geralt if he opts for a peaceful resolution.
Fixes an issue where players were unable to talk to Roche during the "Brothers in Arms" quest.
Fixes an issue where Zoltan's card was unobtainable.
GENERAL:
Preparatory features paving the way for the introduction of New Game + in the future.
Hey Gamers!
Time does fly! These few months since launch passed faster than you can say potestaquisitor. We’ve been hard at work delivering you new content, fixing what needed to be fixed, and secretly plotting how to rock this boat we call the RPG genre even more. We’ve just concluded our shareholder conference where we announced that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt family got a bit bigger -- we sold over 6 million copies of the game in six weeks since launch. Worry not, I won’t discuss any financial stuff here. I would, however, like to give you some insight on what that means to us as game creators.
One could think we have six million reasons to be happy and that’s it. We do, but that number is also a big responsibility and I want everyone to know that we, as a studio, realize that. For us, all your high praise, all the positive reviews, are also an obligation -- we’ve made a really good game but there’s still a long road ahead of us. Everyone here in CD PROJEKT RED is really attached to their work and how you, the gamers, perceive it. RED is full of artists, wild dreamers and people crazy about what they do (and sometimes just plain crazy). We lose sleep over that particular colour the sun has when it sets over Velen, and argue over arranging the furniture in a house the majority of gamers will probably never see. We’re not the kind of people who are easily satisfied and we always strive for more. I’d like you to know that.
Yes, six million copies is a great achievement for a company making RPGs, but this business is not only about that. If our games are a gallery of sound, picture and text - you are the visitors of this gallery. To an artist, there’s no sweeter sight than people enjoying their work. That’s why, in the name of all the devs in the studio, I’d like to say thanks to each and every one of you.
Thanks!
Adam Badowski,
Head of Studio
CD PROJEKT RED

I think they want us to use bombs on them and the centipedes. But I don't like using bombs...Use Yrden on the centipedes. it will temporarily freeze them in place if they come up inside the ring

Um, does the combat stay this tough and frequent? There were just like 3 tough bosses in a row that could drop me in like 2 hits if they wanted.I think you're clear for now. Anything else going forward is either humans or apparitions you can run past. Some unfamiliar wildlife too, maybe. Boars can fuck you up pretty bad.
Are you comfortable juggling an office full of hungry employees, tackling travel plans for a marketing team on an international trip and a financial director asking about Accounts Payable invoice backups all at the same time? Good. Cause that’s an average day here at CD Projekt Inc.

This roles is best suited for someone who is passionate about video games and putting their full effort in even the smallest of tasks

If you post more stuff like this I might just bite the bullet on Witcher + Expansions. On sale now on PSN.It's just one of the best games of all time with some of the best expansions of all time.
mmmm
Just picked up level 31 and i'm gonna do all DLC before the end game. Still way different than the other 3 times I've played through. There is no formula or method to take this game on. This game is top 3 lifetime in my world. Will play many more times. This game shits on any game released in the past 10 years. :bowIt is impressive how CD Projekt RED took the time to even make all this work. It would have been so much easier to make a more linear game and avoid the headaches. This little scene still blows my mind, given most players will have gone past the point in the main story to trigger it in Hearts of Stone.
If they fuck Cyberpunk up it will be an epic letdown.
I wonder if they will shoot the show with the same jank-cam the game has.

I was 250+hHoly shit.
Holy shit.
I really did evverrrything though, I kinda got lost in the world. Maxed out all armours, all gwent cards, almost found all POI but kind of gave up around d the sea ones around Skellege, they were just loot I didn't need. Did all the Villa stuff in the DLC. Got every recipe etc...
Only reason I didn't get a Platinum is because I only played on 2nd hardest difficulty and aslo one trophy is hard to get once you leave starting area. Most of the shit I did was just to fuck around in the world.
We’re working on the next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt!
Developed to take advantage of the most powerful gaming hardware, the next-gen edition of the game will feature a range of visual and technical improvements — including ray tracing, HDR and faster loading times — across the base game, both expansions, and all extra content.
The next generation edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will release as a standalone purchase, as well as a free update for everyone who already owns the game.
DLSS would be huge for it. But if anything, it looking "pre-downgrade" would be the final/good goal to focus on.
