If you go back and check the notice board at crow's perch there is a note from a man saying his four year old daughter Bilberry has died. Ronvid is likely the father, now depressed and seeking death to honour "maid bilberry". It's quite sad.

They most likely just didn't notice they used the name twice, to be honest, because otherwise they *really* didn't do a good job at suggesting that something might be hiding under the guy's facade.

I appreciated the end of Hearts of Stone as a cautionary tale, and not only did I not spare the bastard, I didn't want any type of reward of any sort after that. I felt that there's always a catch, and I went with my gut. No game really does that for me.

I'm so annoyed with my computer right now. I've been busting my rear end all week to carve out a few hours to play this today and now the game has no sound when I boot it up and when I load my game the screen goes black. I'm verifying my files with Steam and if this doesn't fix my problem I may throw my computer out the window. update: 14 files were hosed up and steam re-downloaded them. Now the game won't launch, presumeably because of some of my mods: Error [modfriendlyhud]game\gui\main_menu\ingamemenu.ws(309): Could not find function 'RefreshMainMenuAfterContentLoaded' Warning [content0]engine\environment.ws(30): Global native function 'EnableDebugOverlayFilter' was not exported from C++ code. Warning [content0]engine\environment.ws(32): Global native function 'EnableDebugPostProcess' was not exported from C++ code. Warning [content0]engine\showflags.ws(11): Global native function 'DebugSetEShowFlag' was not exported from C++ code. I tried re-merging the script files with Witcher Script Merger and now I have it down to just the first Error: Error [modfriendlyhud]game\gui\main_menu\ingamemenu.ws(309): Could not find function 'RefreshMainMenuAfterContentLoaded' I'm really not sure where to go from here.  Maybe uninstalling my mods with NMM and reinstalling them... update2: I completely removed Friendly HUD and redid my script merges and the problem is fixed. Now hopefully reinstalling Friendly HUD won't break things again. update3: after reinstalling Friendly HUD I'm back to: Error [modfriendlyhud]game\gui\main_menu\ingamemenu.ws(309): Could not find function 'RefreshMainMenuAfterContentLoaded' Sigh. The game was working great without Friendly HUD but I miss the mod's features.

I think she does if you pick the right dialogue options, though maybe you might have to offer first? You can definitely do it though.

Fargin Icehole posted:I appreciated the end of Hearts of Stone as a cautionary tale, and not only did I not spare the bastard, I didn't want any type of reward of any sort after that. Eh, the difference is that Olgierd can (and least says he will) change and try to redeem himself. No matter what happens, Gaunter will never stop being a total piece of poo poo. You're enabling him to prey on more people by leaving him unscathed, whereas yes, Olgierd was monstrous, but redemption is always a possibility since you can't change the past. It's kind of a weird allegory of the death penalty, oddly enough... I've found in my very small sample size (n = maybe 12 or so?) that people who are for it almost universally let him die. The other side is a mixed bag, but that's because more people I know aren't pro death penalty.

DoctorGonzo posted:The void sounds ominous and the animals from hell are really pushy about it. I read this threads opinion of Olgierd and of the Baron. I can't say after playing twice that I think either of these men are as bad as this thread labels them. They did terrible things, but both of them are sorrowful for their actions. The Baron is actively trying to make things right and Olgierd, clear through his wishes, ultimately desires make amends for past wrongs. Essentially, if you exhibit a desire to be better and to change and feel genuinely bad for what you have done, you're worth more than you know. To do something takes that further. For Baron, he sacrifices everything to rescue his wife. He hires the best to find them. He also does good for Ciri. A true monster would have tried to take advantage of her in her weakened state. For Olgierd, his wishes are a clue into his contrition. The first wish is giving his brother the time of his life. He believes this to be impossible because his brother died because of him. But his wish belies a desire to atone for that. The second is for the Borsodi house. He states that he wanted revenge, but it's a Robin hood scenario. Part of him feels bad for all the plundering, pillaging and general debauchery he spent his life and fortune doing. I think this evidences his desire to improve the world. His final wish is for his wife's favorite flower. An impossible wish, so he believes. We learn that this was her most treasured possession and represents when their relationship was better and when Olgierd was his true self. We can assume that Olgierd longs for the same from this and from the flashbacks of his efforts to break the promise. Basically, if a person feels remorse for their actions and are trying to make it better, they're worth the benefit of the doubt. I like them both, and hope that they both make amends with their new lives. Both have endings that suggest they do.

No, man, there can be NO FORGIVENESS for people's wrongs, didn't you know? All criminals should be put to death. Also you should spoiler text that stuff, still have newbies playing.

I notice the new Assassin's Creed thread title equates it to Witcher 3 & Horizon Zero Dawn. To those who've played AC:O, would you say that's accurate? I haven't played HZD yet (I know, I know) but was curious about the W3 comparison. True or gamer hyperbole?

AC:O seems to be heading in that direction, story is more coherent in general and side quests are often interesting.

I haven't played HZD yet (I know, I know) but was curious about the W3 comparison. True or gamer hyperbole? The usual ubisoft time wasting filler content is now mostly gone; the combat is vastly improved; side quests are unique, non-repetitive, and worth your time; the world is beautiful and interesting; lots of improvements. The writing and characterization are not up to either of the two games though it is still better than most. The big knock is that it probably won't be easily moddable given ubisoft's lovely track record so it won't get the mods to fix its gameplay issues like TW3 did (Ghost Mode for eg) - that's if you thought it had issues to begin with. HZD is superb out of the box, no mods needed. AC:O is a game that would really benefit from mods to tweak it. It's really large enough to really benefit from community changes.

I really like the final choice in HoS because it's not a moral choice, it's a philosophical one. Basically forces you to demonstrate whether you believe whether a bad person can change and if they deserve the opportunity to try.

There are several irredeemable pieces of poo poo, but the consistent thread in their irredeemability is that they don't think they're a total piece of poo poo and/or they blame it on others instead of taking responsibility for their actions. Olgierd knows full well he's terrible and takes full responsibility for all of it, he just doesn't care because he's unable to. He's literally a guy with a brain tumor.

you save olgierd because if you don't then the literal devil gets to keep on keeping on in the world. but also you probably should kill whoreson junior. and maybe the cat witcher depending on your feelings of village murder. Roobanguy fucked around with this message at 00:14 on Nov 18, 2017 |
