Played for about 5 hours so far over the last two days. The game looks better to me then the 2013 video. Have all settings maxed and hair turned on, looks absolutely gorgeous. The different color pallet alone makes it much better then what was shown previously. If I had to stare at grey constantly I would gouge my eyes out.

I'm looking at overclocks that maybe getting near the edge of the bin and causing instability. I run GPU Boost Clock 1446MHz, 7516MHz (3758*2) Memory Clock and I've been solid.

Is there an easy way to figure out what counts as "Alcohol" for this purpose? Anything falling under "alcohol" on the crafting tab, obviously, but I've only got two things unlocked in that tab. Does the beer and vodka you can buy in inns fit the bill, too? By the way, this is a really hard game to play when you're trying to stop drinking

Okay, on a related note: what's the biggest bottleneck in terms of my performance, CPU or GPU or something else? My 3 years old PC has an Intel i5 -2500 3.3ghz CPU and GeForce GTX 750. I'm playing this on high with some tweaks (similar to GTA V) but what should I update if I want the biggest boost on modern PC games? Funny enough, the both games look good to me even on med-high settings, so I can't even imagine what it'd be like on Ultra.

The quest to protect the battlefield scavengers in Velen is pretty tough to not fail, if only because the PS4 framerate gets slain by being in a swamp for whatever reason. Pretty funny that you can go back to the guy who gave you the quest and be like, "Well your brother in law got ate, but I sure did kill a lot of ghouls! So how about that discount on the ferry pass or whatever" He thinks you're joking at first and then gets pissed! Don't blame me, blame Sony!

 Protip time keep all of your green witcher gear (or the Kaed whatever armor at least). It's a linear upgrade path and without previous items you can't progress down the path, and AFAIK there's no way to locate poo poo if you've sold or dropped it somewhere, and the starting armor cannot be crafted later in the game.In conclusion that's a really loving dumb game mechanic and I hope to god that something that fixes it is included in the next patch

Anyone not have any trouble with the werewolf at all? I just shot him with the crossbow, which pulled aggro on him and him alone, then fought by the cave entrance. In fact, that's how I initiate all my fights, I just shoot a mob with my crossbow to pull them, kill them, then pull the next mob.

Pressing the skip button only skips portions of a cutscene, I guess because it's loading stuff in the background or something. There was a boss where I had to press it like 5 times to get to the end and the individual sections would freeze up if I went too fast.

That sucks. I've found some end-game-ish patterns for witcher gear and they're linear as well. Whether the path is straight from the starting armor or if there are interruptions I can't say since I don't have all of the patterns yet, but it's something that should be made glaringly obvious before you even leave the prologue really.

Ok, Pyres of Novigrad. A tailing quest? Really? And the guy walks as slow as he possibly can for like five minutes. Didn't realize I was playing Assassin's Creed. Every other quest has been great but that part was dumb as hell and I hope it doesn't happen again.

I hear you and it's total bullshit, but you never know. If you sold it you probably sold it in white orchard and there aren't that many vendors there.

The Kaed Morhen chestpiece you begin the game with has an upgrade tree that you can only craft if you keep the previous version. In white orchard you'll get a recipe that upgrades it into a level 2 chestpiece. You need to keep that chestpiece to keep upgrading it because you can't replace it.

If you haven't already, try uncapping the fps limit in the video menu. I got consistent lockups when i highlighted a particular sword in my inventory, shifting to uncapped fps completely removed it. Also for everyone, going fullscreen made my fps significantly better - I had to have vsync disabled with everything on ultra because it halved the framerate, but with it on fullscreen, i could have vsync on and everything except the hair poo poo on max and still get 50+ fps.

I haven't paid any attention if the starting armor has an upgrade that goes to the end since I don't even like the look of it. But Drifter didn't understand that some armor pieces have upgrades. There were a fair few TW2 recipes that required specific weapons and armor so it's not a surprise to me personally. TW3 has enough relic loot in every zone that it's not necessary to craft gear at all, for better or worse they don't suddenly drop off and spike like TW2 weapons.
