I'm finally getting around to playing this using mouse + keyboard and I see that some of the keys are unbound and others suck (left alt for dodge). Can anyone recommend some key bindings that worked for them?

I played through the entire game with default bindings on Deathmarch, you just kind of get used to it. Least I did. I dunno I also play a bunch of games with a steam controller so I may just be able to put up with a lot of bullshit.

I genuinely think the steam controller is the best option with this game  While I'm at it, what is the difference with normal and alt movement?

The regular movement felt natural and good to me and the "alternative" was weird.

On NG+ Deathmarch I did Skellige first to level up and make Velen and Novigrad a cakewalk and I'm surprised by just how much dialog changes depending on the order you do things in. Not just incidental dialog either, but Geralt actually gets new yellow dialog options.

Or does that change with new game plus? EDIT: I've decided to return to Witcher 2 in order to muck around with some save options for Witcher 3 (need my tattoo you see). I'm amazed at how different Witcher 2 feels than Witcher 3, but not in a bad way. Assassins of Kings still feels like a Witcher game, but it is a vastly different experience. Despite being a much smaller game than the other two, it does this sense of scale and alien-feeling world so drat well. Foltest's siege at the beginning is utterly gigantic, and the Flotsam region really sells you on the utterly immense and ancient forest that human civilization just barely encroaches on. I do admit that I miss some of the weirder Witcher contracts from Wild Hunt, but I appreciate how the main plot is almost intentionally muddled. More than the other two games, I feel Witcher 2 sells the fact that you are part of the world, and the world will do as it drat well pleases despite your best efforts. War is coming no matter what you do, and the only choices you can affect really influence your own circle of friends in the end as you try to get the hell out of the way and uncover the myriad of double crosses. I do think I will need to get that combat rebalance mod though, I miss my dodge key. Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 06:16 on Apr 12, 2016 |

The Skellige missions were pretty overleveled, but I was high enough on the way into NG+ that I could get by just cherrypicking low level ones. As for new dialog, the one big one that I can remember is during the quest in Novigrad where you bring Triss in to be tortured to talk to Menge. When Triss kills him and says she doesn't know necromancy you can give her poo poo because Yennefer was willing to do it. I'm still playing so there might be huge ones cause I saved Velen for last.

The closest comp is GTA, specifically GTAV. The characters have too much weight & momentum to be fun to control, but there's so much awesome poo poo to do that you just eat it until you get used to it. E - except, they somehow made Ciri super responsive & fun to control. Like a bayonetta-light. So it can't be the engine. Fun control & combat is demonstrably possible.

Geralt on the other hand feels like too much work was put into his movement, which again sounds loony, but that's what it feels like to me. He takes so many goddamn frames to do anything, and it feels like there's 3-4 movement states just for poo poo like moving from deep to shallow water. They put IK(?) on his legs so they could match perfectly with the ground. His movement is so over-engineered that it collapses under its own weight. Thankfully he moves better in combat once you get the hang of jump-dodge vs. roll dodge.

Tupperwarez posted:I think it's because they spent less time on her movement and animation, as non-intuitive as that sounds. She feels responsive because her animations are short, and her movement is simple. Those people are insane if they used IK on his legs for movement. It's a bloody nightmare animating stuff on IK. Talking from experience. Yes it gives the best ground contact possible but it's not worth the amount of effort it takes to execute it. Also, Geralt's foot contact doesn't feel quite right when ascending or descending stairs. But that might be due to the lack of geometry definition (of the individual steps) at the time of animation.

I think Ciri might have fewer attack animations so it feels like you are more in control when she only has one or two possible animations from a certain range while Geralt might have 4 or 5 that all take different amounts of time to execute and seem to be chosen at random.

She feels responsive because her animations are short, and her movement is simple. That's actually the reasoning given I think in an interview after they added the alternate control option. Basically a huge amount of effort was spent making sure the animations look better than than they feel and it ended up affecting gameplay.

Isn't she the daughter of the wolf man and Pravatti? Wolf man is emhyr before he became emperor. He used an alias. He knew about the elder blood and wanted to use ciri to make an heir that would conquer the world but decided he couldn't bring himself to bang his daughter. In Witcher 3 he doesn't want to bang her anymore but set her up as his successor. Anyone have an idea how to get the audio to stop following the camera? It feels like this is what's happening, so If I turn the camera away, my headphones will lose sound from one side and jump to the other side so I'm only hearing from one side at any time.
