Christ I'm bad at this game. I thought Bloodborne destroyed me but no, it's THIS game.

Well the first major fight in the game against the Royal Griffin took me, like, 30 tries; although the winning attempt I got hit so little I didn't need to use any Swallow so I think it was mostly just me being thick. What has been tripping me up a lot is that I don't think either the quick hop or the roll has any invincibility frames in this game. Too much Bloodborne prior to W3 coming out has given me the wrong sense of timing; I keep trying to dodge through attacks and get smacked in the face for my trouble. When I tried using the roll to reposition more frequently a bit before an attack even happens, it got a lot easier. Also I remembered I had made a bunch of bombs so the last 20% came down to me just throwing them at it's face (and in the case of Dragon's Dream then setting them on fire) until it fell over.

Where do you get bomb components?

turtlecrunch posted:e: Actually first first make sure you equip it from your inventory. Yeah the tutorial actually proc'd this time so I figured it out, thanks tho. Another question; when restocking potions with meditation, I assume you need the type of alcohol used to make the potion, not just any, right? And you just need one for a full refill?

This game still has that weird enemy selection problem. No I don't want to fight that drowner just because it wandered into view, I just wanna kill this water hag.

Wow, I just realized how massive the second area actually is. I've been here for 4, maybe 5 hours, and maybe explored 10-15% of it.

So I found both of the Serpentine swords in White Orchard but I am told there is a Serpentine Armor as well. Anyone stumble across it and remember where they found it?

I noticed this in the initial fight against the huge ghoul group. but it turns out that i was hitting left and right on the right stick of my controller, which switched lockon targets. Stopped doing that and it stayed stuck on one guy no matter where he was in relation to me. Or are you meaning that it does a kinda lockon effect regardless of if you're actually locked onto an enemy in the first place?

Man, this game is bitch hard on Blood and Broken Bones if you make any mistakes whatsoever. Death March absolutely terrifies me. Combat is like playing Dark Souls only more fun in basically every way. The preparation, exploration, crafting, all of it is phenomenal.

The second tier defense talent gives you damage reduction while dodging; I am absolutely pumping every point possible to max that out ASAP since it goes to 100%.

So I'm in an area next to the Mill signpost in White Orchard, there were a bunch of Deserters to the northeast of the sign by a windmill, and a there's little house you can go in and down some stairs. There were boxes and chests down there, including one that needs a key to open. Anyone know where to find the key? I looted everything and found nothing.

So I'm in Velen and some kind of heart/tree monster wants me to let it loose, so it can stop a painting from eating children. On the one hand, I was already getting serious Hansel and Gretel[/spoiler vibes from this questline. On the other hand, this thing is terrifyingly ugly and it'd be just like the Witcher to gently caress you for taking the obviously "good" option. Plus, [spoiler]the painting's the one offering info on Ciri. Am currently leaning towards letting the kids get et, on the grounds that no matter what I do this is going to end in tears. :witchermorality: Also: werewolves are loving bullshit. Also bullshit: every enemy in this game.

Finally out of the tutorial area, sitting at just over 6 hours. This loving game. I'm really glad I finished my dissertation before this motherfucker came out.

Man, the (contract spoiler) cockatrice does not gently caress around.

A witcher might use super drugs, bombs, crossbows and magic to even the odds but stabbing someone in the groin is mean. Geralt slicing someone's shoulder and thigh off and sending them into orbit was another spectacle I wasn't prepared for.

In the cave for Wandering in the Dark, I found a big pile of rocks behind a breakable wall. The rocks have a spiral sort of symbol - can I do anything to them?

Almost every inn/merchant dude is up for a game of Gwen, besides the quest highlighted players. By the way, how much does the Witcher world draw from Slavic mythology? theDOWmustflow fucked around with this message at 00:15 on May 20, 2015 |

Holy gently caress is blood and bone setting hard. One mistake and I lose like half my health and this just against drowners in the tutorial zone. What dodge key is everyone using? Alt is crap.

Yeah I havent started playing yet, but this first thing imma do is cheat a bunch of gold for repairs or mod that poo poo out. Degrading equipment has been a terrible idea since.. System Shock 2? Even they added an ini option to turn it off with the first patch.

poptart_fairy posted:The only thing I think is silly in combat is how enemies will suddenly stop reacting to your attacks in several combos, hitting you for pretty significant damage. This bugs me too. There's no hint, they don't block, they just stop and lightning attack to kill me.

Is there a relatively TW3-spoiler-free list of ALL flags for an imported save? Not the save sim but actually bringing in my Witcher 2 save. I'm curious as to what all minor things I'm bringing in besides the major ones you get asked in the save sim.

Maybe it's been answered before but - Do I get less xp for playing on harder difficulties? How much less? I want to play on Blood & Broken Bones, but if it means I'll end up leveling much slower I may reconsider.
