I bought a 970 originally because Assassin's Creed 5 was unplayable for me on my 6850, but it was really in anticipation of this game. Apparently Crisis has never been my benchmark - it's been the Witcher games.

Has any reviewer mentioned the skill tree balance? The Signs tree looked pretty underhwelming IIRC.

So when should I expect to get the GMG $38 code I bought, if at all? Wanna preload this ASAP.

GrossMurpel posted:Has any reviewer mentioned the skill tree balance? The Signs tree looked pretty underhwelming IIRC. Michael Graf did for German magazine GameStar / GamePro. Like you said, most skills are pretty ho-hum +5% to armor / sword damage / sign damage etc, exciting skills that actually change the way you play are few and far between. Still, they handed out a 92 for the PS4 version

These type of skills are really pretty boring. Unlock some tangential benefit instead. There was some game that did that. What was its name again? Oh right, Alpha Protocol.

That's disappointing to hear that those skill levelups are lovely extra damage +% stuff most of the time. Too bad. Those are literally the worst, most boring types of skills. Very poor design. In general. Not singling out Witcher 3 or anything. Pillars of Eternity did this too. Hell, most games do it.

You know you can use gog as a backup for your steam copies, right? https://www.gog.com/witcher/backup which then applies the loyalty discount to Witcher 3 Lord Lambeth fucked around with this message at 17:44 on May 12, 2015 |

Lord Lambeth posted:I have no idea how one cpu is better than another. Does a higher number mean it's better? I have a i5-4590 and it's the only thing holding me back from hitting the minimum requirements, according to system requirements lab. Is this the same website that tells you to download new CPU drivers? Because if so, you can safely disregard most of the information on there.

Pretty sure even the fifteen second card animations from TW1 means that game had more sex scene time. 237 hours of mocapped fuckin' huh?

My Witcher 1 key didn't work either. Theres a form on the site that lets you send a proof of purchase (for steam its just a screenshot of your library with the game in it and you logged into your gog account or something), they just added the key for me then. The Witcher 2 you put your key into gog and a day later they sent you a gog key.

Also Gerstmann confirmed that Witcher 3 video will be done by Vinny so buckle the gently caress up.

Debating just grabbing this (if I do, never played one beyond the first hour or so, and I never finished 2) for my PS4 since I have a ton of credit with Best Buy and my graphics card (HD6850) is starting to seriously show it's age now.

Orv posted:Dear nerds, this game will be unlocking worldwide at 1AM 19th GMT/4PM 18th PST/6PM 18th EST. If you live in other timelines I hope you like math. Your math needs a little help.  The game unlocks at 1AM CET, which is 11PM GMT this time of year. (GMT is an hour behind CET half the year, but two hours behind when CET is observing daylight savings). That would be 4PM PDT and 7PM EDT. The question is, is this the unlock time for all platforms -- Xbone, PS4, Steam, and GOG?

They are in English. People say they're a dispassionate, by-the-numbers translation but I enjoyed the first book well enough.
