If they ever make a Witcher 4, I'm fine with them throwing away my storyline choices from 3 as long as everyone acknowledges that my Geralt is really, really interested in "Gwent."

What I read a few months ago is that there might be another witcher game but 3 is definitely the end of geralt's story I have not made it farther than skellige so please do not spoil why that is

I looked up the stats of the armors to see which to put my points into and Cat looks by far the best but also has that dumb hood. Is there a mod to get rid of it? Master Cat looks so good too.

Master Cat looks so good too. Any headgear you apply as a special "pocket" item will override the hood and make Geralt wear it down instead of over his head. Favorite choices are the Professor's Glasses (bought during an auction in the Heart of Stone expansion) or the donkey's ears ("won" in a game of Gwent in Heart of Stone).

You also get a laurel crown if you win the tourney but I thought it looked kind of lame so I pretty much just go with either ears or spectacles.

How far along the main B&W quest is the Storm the Castle (I think that's what it's called) part? I want to keep going but I also don't want to hit the end without doing a bunch of these sidequests I haven't finished yet. e: in case I got the name of the quest wrong, it's right after the artists' soiree.

Reposting in the blind hope someone notices this: I just recently started Right to the Throne, a custom TW1 adventure, and went into the Inn to make some money and I'm finding that Cibor, the dwarf in the Inn, dosen't run out of money when playing dice poker. I've played him and won more then four or five times but he keeps asking me if I want to play. I get some sort of satisfaction from fleecing all the gambling characters in TW1 of all they are worth (hey, I need that money to get things done! ) and it irks me that Cibor seems to have infinite money. Is this true? Could it be a bug or oversight? I'd look for myself in the D'jinni but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I tried looking in his inventory and all I see are question mark icons for some amount of orens and food. Also, I know in other adventures that with gambling characters there is a dialogue trigger that fires when a certain amount of games have been passed, but looking at the file for RTTT dosen't showcase a similar trigger. Can anyone verify this? Should I just move on and let Cibor go? This has seriously been driving me up the wall for the past week. Someone free me.

As far as I know the only quest that the endgame locks out is the one with Guillame, "Warble" something something.

Man, I am bad at video games. This (what I assume to be) final boss fight in B&W is kicking my rear end. Really digging the ex pack, it's been a fun adventure.

Lareine posted:Anyway, unrelated question. There is a monster den near the Holy Lake (the lake that Lebioda adherents toss their stuff into, not the one with the hermit and the sword.) There is a fleder and a garkain in it along with a dead guy with a diary talking about caving. High up in the cave is a ledge with an illusion but I cannot see a way to get up there. Does this become accessible later in the main quest or what? Is there another entrance? What's up with this? Anyone? I had the impression that illusions were always either hiding something important or something cool.

You will go through that illusory wall from the other side in the course of the scavenger hunt for the griffin grandmaster gear.

Are there fairly few side quests in blood and wine? I like to roll around and do side stuff before diving into the main quest, and I feel like I'm running out of notice boards and stuff a little sooner than expected. What I've seen from the big quest makes it seem enormous so I'm not complaining, just sort of curious if I'm missing things E: on looking it up it seems like the sides are a little bare but there's still easily a few good hours I haven't seen yet so that's cool, plus I haven't done nearly anything with the big plot. Again I'm not complaining at all, that season pass was one of the best twenty five video game dollars I've spent Real Mean Queen fucked around with this message at 08:22 on Jun 20, 2016 |

BBJoey posted:to be fair if you let thaler die in witcher 1 you're a loving failure of a human being To the best of my knowledge, Thaler dying isn't actually recorded by the W1->2 savegame exporter, so there's no way to know if he's dead in 3. We should have lampshaded it and let the player ask "I thought you were dead." "lol nope". Before my time, though.

Equine Phantoms was top notch. Only complaint is that the potion isn't permanent. Roach is a total bro.

man those various kinds of water dragons in Skellige are almost as annoying as the cliff racers from Morrowind. at one point they managed to eat up my whole boat and I had to swim for like 20 minutes just to find to another island that had a boat. also is there a way to fight underwater?

You can use your crossbow under water, and while sailing.

Not only that, but the crossbow usually one- or twoshots the flying (or swimming) enemies if you have upgraded it properly. Be sure to use auto-aiming and you'll never have trouble with harpies, sirens or drowners.

Crossbows usually one- or two-shot underwater enemies as long as you merely make a half-assed effort to replace your current crossbow with a better one if you come across one. No special effort required. Underwater combat is piss easy as long as you don't somehow let yourself get swarmed by multiple mobs or get distracted and run out of air.

One thing I love about this game is that after the final boss fights, there's a good ten/twenty/an hours more dialogue and main quest stuff, not just an immediate blow off and roll credits. Kill boss, wrap up Dutchess plots, then have a drink and chat by a fire with your vampire buddy. That ending scene was exactly what makes this series and company great.

Hey dudes, I'm early into this game and I'm having trouble understanding how to level up quicker. It seems that bandits, wolves, etc give almost no exp. All the main quests are way higher level than I am so does this translate to do a fuckload of side quests until I'm closer to the recommended level? I'm level 4 btw. I've tried to accept as many side quests as are offered but even then it seems like a very slow progression.

I expect this is dne deliberately so when you finally hit the required elvel for the side missions you run off and do them as quick as possible, which stops you burning out on the main quest, and all those side missions are loving excellent. Monster nests are, however, pretty good for xp gain.

Try following the Bloody Baron / Family Matters main quest chain in Velen, there isn't a lot of combat so you can gain a few levels from dialogue and running around, then more side quests will open up. Also, the Bloody Baron chain is one of the highest points of the game.

That drat griffin whipped my rear end so I was trying to be where I should rather than behind. Anybody have thoughts on the PC version using an xbox 360 controller vs keyboard and mouse? I've been using the controller but am finding the signs (LB) a little awkward to do in real time since I'm generally holding down parry (left trigger). Is the keyboard and mouse better suited? I've gotten used to the controls somewhat but still suck.

Is there any way for me to be able to toss my unwanted decoctions in my stash, or a mod that combines oils/bombs into one section? I've been making everything as I've been able to and the 3-wide rows makes it annoying to scroll past the vast array of mostly useless decoctions to get to my potions.

The griffin fight kicks your rear end since you are unfamiliar with the combat, might have missed grabbing the swallow and thunderbolt potions before attempting it, and might also be under leveled. The next set of quests is far more forgiving, only one you might want to go do sidequests before is one where you are asked to go dungeon diving with someone.
