No, it's an incredibly important issue. It's about business ethics and children suffering from leukemia who lose their will to live because of game developers overpromising and underdelivering. It's also about whether we want the forum to be a base of operations for freethinking rebels or abandon it to corporate shills. Choose your side.

if i have to choose

id rather not choose at all

Was Saskia only added to Roche's path in the Extended Edition? Or do I have a really bad memory?

Here, this has saves for both options for what to do with Anais and all those people alive (with tattoo): https://www.dropbox.com/s/fn575q2xnr06mmh/roche.zip?dl=0

Also, doors in The Witcher 2 are terrible, and I don't know why people keep making games with sections where you have to follow someone who runs slower than you.

Edit: Updated it to include Roche -> Triss, as well.

What is the status of the Witcher 1 stuff in this save?

Playing the in-game card game seems to be a consistent culprit.

Some guy two pages back said that happens if you push the pass turn button shortly rather than holding down.

Looking forward to seeing floods of bug reports here tomorrow.

Weirdly enough, searching "card game Witcher freezing" returns exactly zero results.

You plebians just don't know what epic literature is. You should try reading Stephanie Meyer, E.L. James, Dan Brown, or Ayn Rand.
I was worried for a second that a developer would actually be criticized on SA for showing a product and then shipping a significantly different (looking) one, but luckily goons are ready to ridicule anyone commenting on it. Pheeeeeeeeeeeew.

Also Witcher 3 is so good it'll be easy to forget that it now looks worse than Crysis 3, a game that was out Feb 19, 2013.

I'm poopsocking my Roche playthrough in the last few hours before release and man do I hate Loc Muinne. The Act itself is good in terms of story and cool poo poo to find but it feels like it would have been an ever shorter Act if Loc Muinne was actually navigable.

That link about performance that is in German which I do not speak has my video card in a green square and my processor too. Can someone translate and tell me what that means? Is it good? I want to Witch on high-ish settings but I don't need to max out hair follicles or whatever.

it's really sad that we're counting down to launch because then we can play a game that we're excited about but utnayan and shrike and company are just counting down until their lovely posts are buried under a deluge of people posting about happily playing the game

It's been awhile. I know it's Neutral, and Adda's alive. I'm pretty sure Siegried is also still alive. Shani not romanced. Berengar alive (even though the game didn't care).

If you're talking about this one: http://www.gamestar.de/spiele/the-w...technik-tabelle, then dark green means the game will run at 40+ fps in 1080p, using high settings or even ultra (starting with GTX 780) and hairworks disabled.

If all of my things are green then that's probably good to at least play this game better than the console version right?

Didn't beat Witcher 1, but apparently he's default alive since I met up with his agent in Flotsam. Not sure of the canonical status of the other characters though.

CDPR refused to sell any keys to GMG, so GMG is reselling keys they had to buy somewhere else. It's possible that they might not actually have any keys to give out yet.
