Just because the quest suggests being level 17 doesn't mean you have to wait until then. I've never had significant problems with any green quest; patience practice have got me through several red ones as well. Playing on B&BB.

You don't need to hold down LB, you can just tap it and once you select something it will exit automatically, or you can exit by tapping LB again. I also fret over where to find new and better gear, around level 8. I'd love to play on Bed Bath & Beyond, Geralt must smell really bad what with the carrying around heaps of monster bits and never bathing.

I've never had significant problems with any green quest; patience practice have got me through several red ones as well. Sounds pretty dope, especially since a full set of light armor is a +20% damage / +100% crit damage boost for a one-point skill dip and it seems like you can stack up more crit boosts from other items like runes and Assassin's gloves. snipermonkey posted:So I have a 5 year old desktop, how well can I expect this game to work on it? I'm playing this on what was a $1,000 homebuilt desktop four years ago. It's clearly a bit strained by the game but it's a workable experience and it still looks really good even on low/medium settings if you aren't used to ultra-bleeding-edge modern graphics.

Everything about this game is excellent: the music, the voice acting, the game play, the story, hell even installing it was a treat, the GoG hard copy is anyway. funny that one thing can get so much right. the only improvements I could imagine is if it had a Bethesda style modding system. I haven't experienced any crashing though I know others are. compared to the last pc game I bought, Inquisition, which probably crashed upwards of 100 times for me by time I beat it. I'm probably in the minority on this, but I much prefer GoG Galaxy to Steam, and I hope either GoG dethrones steam, or steam adopts GoG's model, neither of which are too likely to happen.

I have a sinking suspicion that not killing Jad Karadin in Lambert's questline is going to bite me in the rear end. Dude just seemed way too chill though. ...this is going to be the Pesta all over again, isn't it?

Relentlessboredomm posted:There better not be a reason to let Whoreson Junior live. I mean after seeing his loving psycho whore murder/torture chamber there was no way I was going to let him go. It seems that it won't really matter if you kill him or not, as the other crimebosses of Novigrad loving hated him and Whoreson was really only able to avoid them because he was protected by Radovid, who has basically abandoned him. It's pretty clear Whoreson is hosed either way. Arglebargle III posted:No, I think you'll find Skyrim is bigger on PC at least. Nah, having just got to Skellige, I think I agree with Deaderinred. Skyrim being one contiguous area and with horse travel not being nearly as convenient makes it seem quite a bit bigger than it is.

I found a loving 42 sword Diagram in that one Ancient Crypt or w/e where you go with Phillipa to get the Sunstone. Thing is 120 damage above my current Level 20 Moonblade. I guess its just there for the guys who grind, because I dont think 42 is really accessible for regular players. Name is the Toch-something blade, IIRC. Its some Elven world name idk.

Oh it probably isnt like 100% impossible of course, but it just seems way the gently caress up there since most story quests give much more EXP than sidequests. My current gear is 31 (Masterwork Ursine is pro as gently caress visually). On that note, anyone not get the proper "visual" upgrade for Superior Ursine Armor? I kept the weird padded look from the lower tier, but according to google it was supposed to change a few times. It just went from Normal padded armor to chainmail for me, none of the in-betweens

Spoilers for Cerys' quest. The ending to this quest is kind of baffling. It never explains how they get the baby out of the oven so I'm just going to assume there was a hole in the wall behind it I didn't see, but even then Geralt still just murdered a bunch of guards that were trying to stop him from burning a baby. The Hym doesn't really have any reason to bail.

Why will it say "you already have this item" when I'm trying to craft something when I don't. For example, I wan't to make more swallow potion and have all of the components, but it won't allow me and just gives me this message when I try to craft any. I'm completely out though... Does the same thing with thunderbolt.

So I have been alternating between reading the books and playing the game. The books are good and are a like fritz lieb in the episodic type nature (Geralt kills this monster then that monster) and have a similar gritty feel to glen cook's black company before they went south and sucked balls. Good Saturday afternoon reading.

Finally got my rear end to Skellige...and immediately punched out the first native I see. Geralt makes a great first impression. Now onward to crippling kleptomania! Edit: Oh, and when you get there be sure to loot the stuff on the beach thoroughly...lot of good stuff to hopefully help you recoup some of that ship rental fee. Also a monster nest and place of power right off the bat. Zoo06 fucked around with this message at 06:30 on May 24, 2015 |

Only one or two of the books are actually episodic like that because they're just collections of short stories, the rest of them follow a continuous story (which I liked better).

Hold on a sec, I just found a book saying that Radovid was born in 1255. The game takes place in 1272. So... he's 17? He really didn't look that young in TW2, but if he's actually supposed to be that young, (witcher 3 beginning and witcher 2 end spoilers) him instigating witch hunts just because he resents Phillippa totally makes sense.

Quick question, just looking for some confirmation--only the main plot points of W2 affect W3, right? I played W3 for a few hours then decided I wanted to see the plot of W2 firsthand, and I'm hoping I can just plow through the main questline without causing some negative changes in W3 (cough Mass Effect).

Pretty much. Did you side with Roche/other dude? Did you let the main villain live at the end? What happened to Phillipa/Triss? Those are the ones that come to mind as being plot-points in 3.

Some of the decoctions are ridiculously powerful. Even if you focus on another set of skills, at least grab the mutation one in the alchemy line. My ekkimaras decoction lasts 40 minutes and heals me every time I hit an enemy.

Is it supposed to be in my inventory? Because it doesn't seem to be. Bust it out pressing the same button as the crossbow, after selecting it on the menu with the different Signs. Except on the bottom. You'll just sort of hold it out, and if it shines where a ghost is in the area, they'll speak.
