I'm very sad at the lack of Geralt Dong and it will be the first mod I install. Also is there a list of endings somewhere so I can try to pick the one I like the most? Adda is alive in my Witcher 1 save does that screw me?

Drifter posted:I wonder what GMG's profit off this is. I wonder if they're just recouping costs. It's weird that GOG wouldn't let GMG sell their game, when so many other sites can. It's a huge game, GMG would certainly lose some influence and authority in their customer base's eyes were it not available at their storefront. GMG is making a profit in a really simple way: their source is almost certainly a region where the retail game is extremely cheap, so even at the discount they're giving people they're probably making a relatively decent amount of money. What they're doing isn't illegal per se but it is shady in a grey market key way (That's how the more legitimate grey market sites get their keys). Also, ironically, greemangaming will permanently ban your account if you try and do a similar thing on their website using a vpn (as will steam, etc), so they obviously think it's not a good thing to be doing.

So like, are the console versions gonna have a kind of Mass Effect-style choice editor, or will you just start off with a default worldstate?

Has there been any word on if the Australian edition has been censored like the Witcher 2 was? We've got a new rating system now but I haven't heard anything one way or the other.

CDPR I have an idea: I don't know how much voice actors cost but you will make your money back. Premium audiobooks of the books as read by the voice actors doing their own parts and of course narrated by Dandelion. Maybe save money by having Dandelion do poor impersonations of the bit parts or people you've never cast, like Neneke.

Yaos posted:There's a huge shitstorm now. Nobody knows who to blame because everybody loves CD Projekt Red and GMG, and everybody knows blame is determined by who you love the least. To me they've both acting stupid. CDP is becoming way more suit & tie lately. GMG got hosed by it so they did a somewhat dick move in return. Hopefully they both just move past this immediately, since it's a PR lose-lose situation.

CottonWolf posted:Yeah. Geralt not saving Adda seems like a very unGeralt thing to do. I doubt the default options taken are the ones considered to be the "most canon" so much as they're "this involves the least callbacks to characters and events a new player would probably know nothing about". Same reason Wrex is dead in all the Mass Effect sequels without an import. (Though actually Wrex being dead makes the game better imo)

Wrex, yes. Wreave being in charge actually gives weight to the genophage argument though. With Wrex you have a guy solidly putting them on an upwards path that doesn't necessarily involve conquest and being giant space lizard dicks. Wreave pretty much says the once the Reapers are down he's taking over, so now the choice is a bit more debatable outside the "Shepard's a genocidal rear end in a top hat" path--adds some tension and conflict whereas with Wrex it's largely a no-brainer.

beer_war posted:Yay? Or boo? I'm not playing this on PC, but the GMG/CDPR thing is mess. Either GMG were selling them as a loss-leader after purchasing them from a third party, who'd purchased them from CDPR, and CDPR were in the wrong, or GMG got them in a shady way. Not knowing which it is, it just makes everyone look bad.

I was a little put out that my Nvidia copy of W3 was going to be GOG only, but after learning that Galaxy will support achievements I feel better. ...and now after reading that I have to question my life choices. Someone pass me the sword for monsters? Edit: VVV That's why I did chat over email. Email is easy to reject, chat or a phone call is more interactive--if they would have started to stonewall I could have argued my case a bit more.

Given that I'm within the refund period, any chance you could just send me the additional game code?" I emailed them last night and they got back to me telling me to go pound sand, so I went on chat like you said and got the same response you did.

Signs seem to look like they'll only be really useful if you spec that way. Axii mind control is on the second level of the skill tree for example.
