Oxxidation posted:Both VA's sound like they're gargling gravel and one is unlikely to pick up on those emotional nuances when they don't understand a lick of the language. There's no clear winner. I don't know about you but I prefer good VA with subtitles to bad dubs any day. Even though you can't hear the more subtle nuances/puns/whatever sure you can still appreciate the fact that he's not as awkwardly monotone as english geralt. Arglebargle III posted:How did you do this? For Steam, on your library, right click on witcher 3 and choose properties, and go to the language tab and something about selecting polis there and 'auto-download language packs' (I have GOG so i haven't done it myself but my friend managed to do it with this). For GoG: Go to your GOG.com account and click on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt game in your library. From the game card, click the LANG: menu and select POLSKI. Download the three parts of the Polish Language Pack and use the installer. When you boot up the game, it'll be in Polish text as well, so go to options and click on WYBÓR JĘZYKA. Make sure the top slider is set to Włączone, the middle slider is set to Angielski, and the bottom slider is set to Polski. Click on WRÓĆ and you're done.

Macaluso posted:Yeah, I also found this sweet chest armor where it had like a metal chest and two spiraly things where the arms are, and then the rest of it was this long flowing red robe thing and it looked awesome. But it wasn't anywhere close to as good as the chest I had. I wish cosmetic slots were a thing in this game (and all games) I'm using a similar piece instead of Griffin Armor chestpiece because I haven't really felt a pressing need for the extra stats yet and it looks cool. Mine is green and short though. Cidarian Army something or another. I'm gonna be really sad when I can upgrade my Griffin Armor again and it becomes undeniably better than this thing and the minmaxer in me is forced to change out.

The Griffin School should be embarrassed, their armor is like a shirt with leather chest and shoulders. Good job guys, way to loving suck. Letho has more fashion sense than you.

Ra-amun posted:Why does the feline crossbow require level 29 when everything else in the set is ~15? Are you loving kidding me? I've been busting my rear end trying to level up to 14 to use he feline armor, and I can't even use the full set? What the gently caress is with this game and putting level restrictions on craft gear you find? Now I don't even want it! I'd rather go back to my standard Wolf school gear, but I don't think you can update that at all, can you? Even so, I sold it years ago so unless I can get another set back home who knows.

Igni alternative mode is overpowered as gently caress against solo targets. Alt Igni only drains stamina for as long as you maintain the flames. Every damage tick of the flamethrower hands gives a chance to Burning, a damage over time debuff that also stuns them for the duration of the DoT. The DoT seems to last about 4 seconds, which is plenty enough time to recoup the stamina and alt Igni again to re-apply Burning. Why is any humanoid dumb enough to gently caress with a Witcher, my god.

Griffon makes Geralt look fat and the upgrade puts these really silly spikes on one shoulder that bother the gently caress out of me.

Either you have messed up ears, are a non native English speaker, or are confusing language speaking with the quality of writing. In the more invested quests Geralt sounds like a human being. In the less invested he sounds slightly awkward because the phrases are awkward. So far my favourite choosable dialogue is when a Nilfguardian asks you why you saved him from a lynch mob ""I don't like lynch mobs"

I like the pants too, sure as hell better than a lot of other options. I basically like everything about the Griffon set besides the chest piece, and honestly, if the model didn't make Geralt look fat I'd like that, too.

Why was it decided that my starting armor would be garbage? Why does Geralt The White Wolf need to chase armor sets from dead witchers of other schools? I should be forging my own legend and have younger wit her upstarts come questin for my armor set. I hope the mod community fixes this.

Took me a dozen or so hours, but this game is really growing on me. Finally something in my brain clicked where I'm not actively thinking about how much I don't like the controls and finding the endless wilderness fun to explore instead of it feeling like a chore. Glad I stuck with it. The game has a lot of good poo poo that really didn't shine for me until I warmed up to it.

VolticSurge posted:As a complete noob to the series,and having just got a copy from a friend,do I have to play the other games to understand the plot? Or will I be OK? You'll be fine. Game comes with a very brief summary of the past two games in a booklet, and the rest you can figure out yourself from context. Geralt is a magical mutated monster-slayer called a Witcher. Others exist. Recently, he came into conflict with a Witcher from another school that was hired by the Nilfgaardian Empire to destabilise the Northern Kingdoms. One of the things he did was kill Geralt's king buddy. Geralt likes the sorceress Triss Merigold but after regaining his lost memory, he also likes Yennefer. I'm pretty sure that's all you need to know.

Is there any point to the pass you get to get into the big city? I ran into those guards that forbid me from coming in hours ago, and just jumped off the bridge and walked into the city since there are 1000 other ways to get in. Now some guy actually gave me a pass for doing a side mission. Is that just for people who REALLY want to play by the rules or something?

I got the pass (maybe even two passes?) before I ever reached a checkpoint. Better to allow jumping into the water than to Assassin's Creed it up with artificial restrictions.
