Comte de Saint-Germain posted:Yeah, but Yenn knows what she's doing, have some faith. My faith in Yen ended the minute the game revealed that she was telling the truth about keeping the gaudy-rear end stuffed sex unicorn  Geralt gazing wistfully at it first and then Yen after the fact was kinda funny though.

Haha I just remembered the unicorn is mentioned in the very first post-tutorial scene where you're at the campfire with Vesemir and show him Yen's letter. He asks Geralt, but it's personal

So as someone who didn't play the other two games is the unicorn a callback to a previous game? Because I lol'd when I found it the first time, but even moreso when it's true purpose was revealed.

I dont remember the Unicorn or much about Yennefer at all being mentioned in Witcher 1 or 2 so I imagine it is a callback to a book/the books.

I missed the unicorn sex scene because I thought it was more important to go back to the wake.

I was curious to see how they would incorporate the unicorn and boy did I find out. It looked very uncomfortable and not particularly sexy. But then again I have never had sex on top of a unicorn stuffed or not so I wouldn't know from personal experience.

I'm sure she could always cast a spell of some sort if poo poo wasn't working right.

Goddamn it I was too Yen whipped irl to do that. I thought it might be a fail trigger for future unicorn riding

Million Ghosts posted:Philippa is hilarious in her awfulness, Yen is just an awful bitch to everyone around her. Yeah, this. I think it's Vesemir who says 'I get that she's a powerful sorceress who has been emancipated, but are manners too much to ask for?' I thought I'd dumped Yen after turning her down for sex at Kaer Morhen but, welp. Guess not.

Can someone PM me the best way to get black pearl dust for crafting lesser runestones? rather than PM I will just suggest: don't bother Everything to do with runestones and wards is really expensive for not very much benefit. Loot scales with level so you'll start picking up regular and Greater runes/wards shortly. You have to pay to remove enchants and I think doing so destroys the enchants? IMO just hang onto runes as you go and when you can combine to Greater use those. Not worth crafting or socketing anything less than Greater, the cost is really steep relative to the bonuses.

Hey do you guys know if you can get The Baron's unique Gwent card through any other means or am I hosed? I ignored Gwent for the majority of my game but now that I beat it I'm actually starting to collect the Gwent cards, but I missed my chance to play with the Baron.

So for the first part of the Bloody Baron stuff, this second time through I found the shrine in the basement, is Geralt supposed to say anything about it and should it change any dialog? Nothing happened for me. This is when he lets you inspect the rooms.

I think how polarizing Yen is, is a demonstration of just how well her character is written. For me, it's not even close between her and Tries: Yen is lightyears ahead, and I can't even wrap my brain around how you could think otherwise. But I appreciate that not everyone feels that way, and it just goes to show what great character building this game has

But I appreciate that not everyone feels that way, and it just goes to show what great character building this game has Well it's pretty easy to just say "Geralt was with Triss for TW1 and TW2, so I'll stick with her, who the hell is Yen anyway?", since Triss' quests will probably be done before Yen's. I really would have liked to know what happened in "that conversation six months ago" between Triss and Geralt. I'd imagine it had something to do with Geralt realizing that he'd been had. That left me quite confused until someone else pointed out that it wasn't something I'd somehow missed at the end of the 2nd game.

Just got a PS4 and this game, never played a Witcher game, enjoying not knowing ANYTHING about a game, want to keep it that way. So, in that spirit, just got one small question so I can play this game right. Is it a good idea to just hang out in White Orchard and do EVERYTHING before moving on? Or is that similar to 100%ing the Hinterlands in DA:I? Just don't know how I should handle progression in this game. Feels weird.

I think level 6 is a good time to leave but I explored and finished everything at 9 as there is zero reason to rush through the content. At least do all the Places of Power question marks on your map though. They are incredibly useful. And if you blow up monster nests remember to loot them.
