Relentlessboredomm posted:Remember those researchers in Witcher 2 who gave you some potion. Well...http://m.imgur.com/1UG3xZA Hahaha, holy poo poo. I made the right choice in accepting that, the train wreck will be glorious. Edit: Also, when doing the quest to restore shrines in Velen, is the only solution really to just beat up the strawmen Nietzcheans/Atheists? Saying you don't want to get involved just fails the quest right then and there when finding them. Also, why in the heck are they out digging up statues in the middle of a warzone? evilmiera fucked around with this message at 13:06 on May 23, 2015 |

Arglebargle III posted:I kind of miss having to drink potions before fights. I liked doing research and getting geared up for a fight. I also liked how potions/oils/whatever was done in TW1 because while you had to craft each one they also lasted a long time. Juggling a dozen potions and oils which last a few seconds is more poo poo than I ever feel like dealing with so the extent of using potions I do is have the thunderbolt potion in one of my quickslots and occasionally drinking it when I remember it exists.

There's a herbalist's hut in Velen but it seems to always be locked. When does it open?

The Witcher contracts are mostly satisfying and challenging fights and provide bitching relic weapons.

Installed 2 mods that worked like a charm if anyone is into that kind of thing. One gives merchants more money and makes them pay more for your stuff. The other lets you increase the amount of experience you get. No issues with them. Also, can I just say that exasperated Geralt is my favorite Geralt. His reaction when this guy won't help him unless you find his pet goat is just so loving perfect.

I really hope the whole game isn't just farmland and small thatched houses. Does the landscape at least get a bit more interesting?

Is there a reliable way to make Geralt enter combat, especially at range? I'd really like to use my reflecting arrow skill, but more often than not Geralt seems to think sniffing at the enemy with his enhanced nose is a much idea than attempting to block something. It's really loving frustrating. Other than that and sometimes clunky controls and a few bugs (I guess? Enemies just standing in a spot as I'm shooting bolts at them til they're dead is a bit strange), I'm really enjoying combat at the second hardest difficulty. Having to actually read a beastiary entry in order to defeat a wraith or whatever? That's awesome. EDIT:: Oh, and I like Gwent, but didn't beat the tutorial guy. Did I miss out on great cards or something? anatomi fucked around with this message at 13:46 on May 23, 2015 |

Yeah, combat detection can be kind of hosed. Last night I was getting a lot of 'you can't do that while in combat' fails for trying to use my crossbow. But I was dicking around with tethers of much higher-level enemies and was pretty drunk at the time so I'm hesitant to blame it entirely on the game.

Wow this game is fun, although the controls are rather clunky. I find it's best to play with a controller opposed to a keyboard. This game was meant for consoles. I'm wondering if I"m playing the game wrong, as I haven't had a sexual encounter yet with the herbalist, and if the last Witcher game taught me anything it's that sex is as much a part of the game as alchemy. Oh, and I got the Serpentine swords already and I'm not even level 4. It's great!

If you mean the herbalist in Velen, it's in there, just wait. Err, the female one anyway. The pellar is in a committed relationship, but Geralt doesn't care about his hobbies.

Yeah, drawing your weapon doesn't necessarily work. Good to hear I'm not the only experiencing out-of-combat issues. Hopefully it's on their radar. Really wish it was possible to create custom markers on the map, like when you encounter a lvl ?? monster and need to revisit when you're a bit stronger. Kind of hard to keep track of where you've been sometimes. IIRC, there was a mod like that for W2?

When I saw Uma for the first time I was horrified because obviously the Baron had dug the kid up again and now it was rapidly growing or ... something.  I was relieved to be wrong but now I'm convinced the game has something even worse in store, in true Witcher style.

Thanks to whoever mentioned assigning the touchpad controls on a DS4 to various signs. Great idea. I find using left and right presses as a scroll wheel a bit too fiddly though, so I've just assigned my three favourite signs to the three different types of button press.

drat this thread moves fairly fast...reposting from a few pages back: Trying to import a save that I downloaded from the link in the OP. I dropped it in my savegames folder with the other W2 saves, but it keeps erroring out on me when I select it--import failed. Anyone have any tips? And/or a cool Broche save with the tatt and everyone alive (Cynthia can be dead, because yeah).

You know, I have no trouble dispatching alghouls, corpse hags, all kinds of wraiths, griffons, werewolfs, and whatever other kind of nasty roams the wilds, but the one thing that always fucks me up are large packs of drowners. Something about their leap is just a tiny bit too far and too fast for me to reliably dodge on reaction, and as soon as one hits me the whole group will just run a train on me while I'm stunlocked. It's me, I'm the worst witcher
