It's 1 am and it just occurred to me that we are playing the Witcher 3 in like 14 hours.

I'm still not done with Witcher 2. I'll have to wait an extra day, I suppose.

I'll just skip all the eloquent bits of Witcher 2 and set up major decisions with that interrogator. One day, I may actually finish it and import a proper save.

Is plough a direct translation from a Polish word for gently caress, or something else?

In the books, Sapkowski is very fond of the word "chędożyć". It's really archaic Polish for loving. "Plough" is a decent substitute, though it doesn't have that funky Polish ring to it.

The characters also say "gently caress" but that represents a different Polish word. The Polish word commonly used like the English "gently caress" is "kurwa", which literally means whore. Hence you get things like whoreson, which is a very common Polish insult (skurwysyn).

If you think Russians like to swear, you haven't lived in Poland.

Yeah, pretty much. Although I think W2 is far more neutral than W1 was. You are never fully involved unless you really want to be.

Ah, so they translated it as another somewhat archaic word. That's the way to do it, if you ask me.

As an English man, I am not getting the confusion over the word Plough. It's used here to refer to sex an awful lot.

It's not really archaic in America either. It's not common but people would know what you meant if you said it.

Kinda wish GOG had a preloading thing like Steam does, although I guess they couldn't do that without dropping their whole no-DRM deal. I would have picked it up on Steam, but I have both of the old games on GOG so I get the full 20% discount. Hopefully the game won't be one of those monstrosities with a huge file size.

What I'm saying is that I'm way more excited to play this swords and boobs game than an adult should be :v:

Oh cool, I tried to preload it earlier and it gave me an install error which I thought was because the game wasn't out yet but now turns out was just because GOG tried to install to my SSD which didn't have enough disk space.

One of my friends in Greece just got a call that his pre-order got cancelled by the distributor who apparently doesn't have enough copies for small shops :( He even called the shop two weeks ago and they assured him they'd have his because he was the first to pre-order.

I feel really bad for him :(

Pre-loads can be done without DRM or encryption, you just leave important but small files out of the download.

Stop teasing me with material goods when all I really want is another couple of megabytes so I can play Escapism - The Game until I finally recover from surgery and get to go back to work. I have a feeling that the game might not help in that regard. Also, that's a nice looking map.

He'll be retiring soon, I'm sure his first couple months off the job will be a Witcher 2 & 3 marathon play. Maybe he'll stream it on Twitch?

these streams are pretty much unbearable, I'll just hold off 11 hours and play the game without having to look at some little dude in the corner giving shoutouts to weird internet people for subscribing to his video.

Yes, for popular channels. And you are lucky, he is removing his subscription announcement message so it doesn't distract for the game.

I don't imagine you would need to reinstall the game.

I'd forgotten to back up 100% of my Steam folder before I upgraded my computer a couple of months ago, reinstalling the game and starting it up has restored all of my own saves to me, now I just need to figure out which one is the one I want.
