Iorveth easily kicks Roche's rear end in their weird duel at the end of Act 1, therefore by power level hierarchy logic Iorveth could do that too if he wanted to.

I thought as characters that Roche was cooler than Iorveth, but Iorveth's path has the better act 2 and 3.

Man I am curious to see how the Roche/Iorveth choice pans out in Witcher 3 More than that I want to see Letho return, loved his character, his voice acting. I always bullshitted with him in the end and let him walk, witcher bro was just trying to rebuild his schoolin the south Willfrey fucked around with this message at 22:06 on May 6, 2015 |

If you go with Iorveth, he can really grow to like Geralt and turns into your bro, too. They're both cool dudes.

I fear they'll both be pissed off at Geralt in my game, since I abandoned Roche for Iorveth and abandoned Iorveth for Triss.

Of course, it's not like you really fight for the Scoiatael on Iorveth's Path. You fight against indefinite detention, and for racial equality, freedom from foreign tyranny and cool dragons.

In fact, the Scoia'tael are actually a minor (if crucial) part of Saskia's rebellion that every other member of her faction despises for being crazy terrorists.

Broose posted:That's a really lovely point of view. You say that like terrorist actually means anything. Geralt doesn't live in 21st century planet Earth. "Terrorism" is a pretty understandable response in the context of a non-trivial part of the population wanting your race wiped from the face of the earth.

It's happened like once or twice before but usually GMG is legit.

Spite posted:It's very eastern european to me: there is no good choice, and everyone is some flavor of corrupt rear end in a top hat. Don't agree with that at all. Just because "modern 21st century human rights and society" isn't an option doesn't mean there isn't a good choice. What's great about the Witcher 2 isn't that every ending is some flavor of EVERYTHING SUCKS FOR EVERYONE FOREVER and to take that from the endings is a pretty big misread. It's that you do make a difference for somebody but you can't change the fundamentals of society. Good choices are relative.

If the elves didn't want to get hosed over, maybe they shouldn't have been so smug all the time even while losing their entire territory to humans. Dwarves are cool though.

It sounds like CDProjekt is trying to keep the game on Steam and GOG only (probably to try and boost GOG.) Any other digital distributors have to use retail keys to sell the game. As GMG is, from my understanding, connected to a retail chain in the UK they've probably put up keys from boxed copies they purchased.

The Sharmat posted:"You're the noblest man I've ever known" is what he says to you if you help Saskia in the end, if I remember correctly. He says you are the only truly noble human he has ever known. Geralt says he's not human and Iorveth is relieved because he can keep hating humans then. Roche is a total bro but Zoltan is miserable if you choose the Roche path. You get to hang out with all Zoltan's pals if you go with Iorveth as well as do the playable Dandelion quest. Its really the only choice.

I just don't really see how he qualifies as a "bro" if he never really does something that indicates he gives much of a poo poo about you at all beyond idle chit chat in a couple cutscenes.

If I buy the GOG version, can I register it to steam? Not a big deal if I can't, but I prefer it for updates and the possibility of a mod workshop. Also, do any Canadians know if GOG will switch to beaver bucks from freedom coins when I pay? poo poo has been way more expensive on steam since they switched to our sagging currency.

No, but I believe the Steam version will give you an extra GOG key (at least it has with the previous two games).

Ah, I see. Didn't read anything about that, but explains why they haven't sent out one for me yet. I've forgotten how mindnumbingly boring the prologue is for Witcher 2. Just wanna get to flotsam already.

Not Canadian, but GOG uses USD for anything not starting in Euro (EUR), Pounds sterling (GBP), Australian dollars (AUD) or Russian rubles (RUB).
