The Sharmat posted:Oh God, this. I like starting over but it being Northern Realms every time is so boring. By the time the other decks are playable by Northern Realms deck is godlike and there's no reason to play the others. Yes, I know, I could do it anyway, but I dislike having to deliberately cripple myself. Nilfgaard deck owns  Shame their best ability is acquired after you beat the tournament and at that point there isn't anyone that can challenge your gwent dominance.

pik_d posted:I'm still not convinced by that line (that didn't make it into the game), how do you make sure that your plan to kill someone who has successfully not been killed for 300+ years is foolproof? Phillipa has been captured before. It isn't like shes invincible. Just keep throwing bodies with some dimeritium scattered around until she dies. Or use other mages. etc

Swedish Horror posted:The (minor HoS spoilers) wedding sequence is amazing. Everything about it is wonderful. Yea the Vlodimir quest was amazing. Right up there with the drinking buddies at Kaer Morhen. Overall the expansion was ok. Probably because I didn't give 2 fucks about von Emeric and would've rather more screentime been given to O'Dimm. I think I was still a level short to use the new viper swords. Did anyone find the steel? sword recipe, or whatever one that wasn't in the vault? I'm curious as to which of the final rewards is the best. The sword seems neat, but I haven't had a chance to play around with it in combat. I'm curious how long the recharge time / hp drain is. Beyond that, I'm guessing the infinite alchemy booze is the best reward.

Xarn posted:So, which patch removed some of the talents being always active? Because right now I am running around with full slots and some maxed skills that I just cannot use, and levelling seems kinda pointless. I wish that the dlc added another sink for talent points. I have like 10+ unused because there is nothing to spend them on since I have everything I want maxed. ymgve posted:Anyone know if I can use any of the auction items for quests? I sold the picture but I still got the glasses (which if nothing else makes Geralt look pretty dorky when equipping them) and the falcon statuette is marked as a quest item I think the last one is for Triss. Shame she disappears in the postgame. I'm curious as to what the reward is.

Comte de Saint-Germain posted:I'm teasing. It's a fair criticism. I didn't work on that part, but I did have a hand in another quest I'm not super proud of. But I think we've still managed to pretty consistently hit a very high quality level, especially considering that our team is a tiny fraction of the size of other studios operating in this marketspace . I'm not trying to minimize your frustrations, merely the suggestion that we did this out of a desire to hurt you, personally. You are hurting me personally by making me choose between cool horse armor or infinite food or infinite alchemy booze or the 2 best swords

I'm happy with the ending I went for in the end where I decided to see what Shani had to say which gives you a totally different ending, but it is cool to know you get those things. No, that's the steel sword. The venomous silver sword is inside the final level. It's stuck in a stone at the end of one of the paths. A bit lame that all the viper school gear is missable, but meh. Hopefully someone finds the console commands to add them in later.

Bugblatter posted:Was there a reason I missed as to why O'Dimm eating the apple tortured Vlodimir? Thought there might have been an aspect to his past or death that I missed. I was also unclear as to whether Vladimir went back to the crypt or if he suffered the "worse fate" (collecting his soul, I'd guess) that O'Dimm was threatening him with. I'm assuming it's because O'Dimm is a dick. Probably just wanted to eat a tasty apple while slowly collecting Vlodimir's soul.

Dongattack posted:Thanks! Just finished the main storyline in the expansion and now i'm wondering about the ending: What kinda rewards do you get from Gaunter O'Dim if you side with him? I didn't. You can pick between a 100 stamina racing saddle that also "addles" nearby enemies, an infinite source of food to eat for hp regen, infinite alchemy booze or 5000 crowns(lol). Or you can pick nothing like a chump. If you went with Olgeird, well I hope you found the venomous silver sword in the dream world.

Arglebargle III posted:Souls players always do this and it's agonizing to watch. You're crippling yourself. Gerald is so much more mobile than the monsters and parry is so bad. Stop holding down parry. Only ever riposte and dodge. Just leave the fight if you are getting overwhelmed. Gerald doesn't have a shield. Stop playing like you have a shield. Or use alt quen if you feel you must have a shield. yea I don't think I used parry more than a handful of times. short dodge / roll is king for everything.

twistedmentat posted:So, I am honestly curious, how much sex is actually in this game? I've seen more than a few place act like Witcher 3 is pretty much non-stop Geralt sex adventures. I am glad they did away with the creepy sex card mini game from 1. There is a lot less boning in 3 compared to 1. Witcher 1 was a giant bone zone for Geralt. Would definitely take cheesy cards over awkward ingame sex scenes though.

I guess it makes sense given that the base game was a lot bigger than the advertised 100 hours for a completionist playthrough. It was like 7 hours for me so no. Maybe 8 hours after I explored all the unknown locations on the map.

Went with him to the swamp and found his wife transformed into a water hag. Killed the monsters, then went and freed her from the curse after finding Johnny. But she died in front of the Baron and their daughter. Baron told me to meet him back at his castle for my reward, and when I got there he was dead. No it's self contained. It doesn't affect anything else.

The Sharmat posted:Hearts of Stone ending Gaunter apparently is speaking the Elder Speech and a couple other languages in that ending. There's a translation on reddit if you trust it. Something about how Geralt is a stupid primitive and that Gaunter can't actually be killed or banished, he'll get you next time etc etc. Now I kinda want the bad ending to zoom out and show O'Dimm before the monsters overrun the shack Geralt is in. Or show him getting his revenge on you in some other way.

Manatee Cannon posted:that's what I'm saying: everything you find in the witcher is a quest. you're finding something someone is gonna ask you to deal with, or you'll find the person asking you to deal with something. you finding quests is not really disproving my point, or even disagreeing with it. not every story you find in fallout is a quest tho; most aren't. like how you can go into a random mine and get ghost flashbacks to the past culminating in finding a secret ritual altar at the bottom, complete with computer entries and audio logs filling in the context. that's not a quest, it's just there. nothing points your way to it, there's no quest marker to follow; you find it or you don't. that's the difference when it comes to a feeling of exploration: a quest marker kind of ruins it. you don't feel like you're finding something You can turn off the map markers in Witcher 3.
