Only a couple hours in and this game is a blast. Will probably go down as one of my favorite of this generation. I love tracking beasts!

I've been having a really good time with the game, just doing sideguests in White orchid, and just finished killing the first Beast. But i cant figure out how to activate the road signs for the fast travel?? I've clicked on them but still get the "you cannot fast travel from here, you must find the fast travel signpost" But the signposts all Give me the "fast travel" option when i go to them. Any advice?

Here's a message CDPR put in the box. What I find best is that they genuinely say thank-you. I've never, ever experienced this with game devs. Naturally, the free content is awesome too. quote:Dear Gamer, Valar Morghulis fucked around with this message at 14:32 on May 19, 2015 |

I had some issues witht he graphics. At some point all the ground textures suddenly became tiled and ugly. When I come back I'll update my graphics driver and see if that solves it. If not, anyone had the same problem before? e: ^^^^ Usually I would say that it's just there for you know, ehhh reasons. But Project Red has prooven time and time again that they do this with a passion, have the knowledge to do it and actually put as much effort into their game as they say. So that thank you note feels sincere since...well, the entire game is.

It's hard to consider Nilfgaard a threat when its soldiers are more respectful and helpful to just about everyone, Geralt or the people they're conquering, than any Northern ruler.

I managed to accidentally space through the tutorial tip on haggling prices for your work - can someone let me know if there was any information there that isn't obvious? No entry in the tutorial page or I'd just go check that.

Yeah, I'm probably going to flip-flop between the independent north and Nilfgaard quite a lot. Nilfgaard kind of reminds me of the legion in F:NV, only slightly more humane. They can be dicks, but it seems to be for the the greater good.

Though yeah even in the books it was hard to care about whether the North won or lost the war. The reason Geralt didn't like Nilfgaard was because they were trying to abduct Ciri.

OKay, this game sucked me in. I'm hooked. I didn't notice the quest list screen with the quest levels. I am barely level 3, and I'm far enough in the story that stuff is showing up as level 7-15. So I decided to fast travel back to the beginning do some quests and explore. Loving the abilitys and items. I was worried there wouldn't be enough "RPG" to my adventure game and there is more than enough. Would love a first person mode, though! One that pops out to 3rd during combat.

poptart_fairy posted:Wait, you can haggle?! When was the tutorial?! It came up for me when I was talking to the guy about the well quest. There was a dialogue option to ask about my price, and selecting that brought me to the haggle menu and gave me the tutorial. I'm sure there'll be other opportunities down the line.

The witcher sense mode is really creepy at times. In forests you suddenly hear all those branches and leaves, monsters and wolves, and it abandoned buildings you hear creeks and poo poo. Spooky.

There's something kind of amazing about galloping through a forest at full tilt because a bear is running after your rear end with a taste for Witcher on his mind.

Best single player mmo ever. Do feel really dumb for hoarding sixty of every flower and never using my potions because I didn't know they recharged. Should probably put that in the tutorial

My brother told me you can only hold 4 bombs at a time now? Say it ain't so. I loved rolling around with 20 of each bomb, and alternating between setting people on fire, freezing them, and blowing them up

I just bought this out of nowhere despite not being a huge RPG fan (NV and Skyrim are as far as I've ever gotten) due to the insane reception and loveliness of the graphics. I absolutely adore good world-building in games and this seems to have that in spades, hopefully I can get over the upgrades and casting spells and poo poo. It feels weird being like the only one in this thread who doesn't already know everything about everything.

So I'm an idiot who didn't understand how to import my Witcher 2 save. The choice at the start where it asks to Simulate a save, does anyone know the difference? I picked "No" because it was my guess that in doing so I'd be able to pick the choices once I got to that part of the game, is that correct?

Simulate save lets you pick choices in the game through questions that pop up a few hours in. Selecting no, the game randomly picks everything for you I guess.

Philthy posted:Can someone explain this? I haven't been paying attention to potions yet, and I've been picking flowers like mad because Oblivion gave me OCD. You craft a potion once, you get a potion item with a certain # of charges (I think the charges are affected by your skills). When you meditate, any potions refill their charges if you have alcohol in your inventory, one per potion that needs to be refilled. You still need ingredients later because most potions have multiple upgrades that require the base potion as an ingredient, but you don't need to hoard flowers obsessively. This system is a little weird feeling at first, but it's effectively cured me of my open-world OCD. EDIT: Herbs also respawn *really* fast so there's no reason to pick every flower.

If I want to get caught in an infinitely recurring loop of picking up the same ten flowers forever, you can't stop me. I will have all of the flowers. I'm sure I could use them for something.
