I think making another Witcher game as we know them without Geralt is a bad idea. But a city building/merchant game in Kovir, I think that's the super rich city, would be sick as hell. Gwent would be included too of course.

Or like a straight up detective style game without any combat.

I’ve definitely played whole $60 AAA games with less content than Blood and Wine, a $20 DLC.

There’s a bunch, all of the important characters’ side quests (Djikstra, Yenn, Dandelion, Triss) and then major arc stuff like the Skellige throne

I've always thought a medieval game where your some type of cop or inspector would be cool.

This is true, but also extremely wrong. Yennefer is a horrible, thoughtless bitch and you should kick her to the curb as soon as possible because Triss is actually a good person who isn't accidentally ruining the world for no reason.

HORMELCHILI posted:

you are definitely a beta if you pick Triss

A beta with stockholm syndrome.

Daikatana Ritsu posted:

Whoever chooses Triss as a wife has brain problems for real.

Now that that's out of the way, this thread rocks and I'm enjoying reading all the posts from you losers who haven't finished TW3 yet!! Making me want to start it up again, but I should instead finally play through 1 and 2 b/c I love the books but never got a chance to play those ones. Which worked out I guess b/c 3 is way more a sequel to the books than a sequel to TW1 and 2 from what I hear? Like, main story wise anyway. There's no Yen and Ciri in 1 and 2 right, since Geralt is all amnesia'd and Triss is living her Single White Female fantasy.

The always-first-person stuff in 2077 is the only thing that really pisses me off since I was looking forward to collecting lots of neat cyberpunk outfits and cosmetics.

I was worried about this 'til I realized it means whenever I upgrade my eyes I'll actually see the changes. That poo poo is going to be so tight, so if it's all first person but dialogue is in third I'm down.

Also thirding?? fourthing?? fifthing?? that the Keira quest in the dungeon where you fight the wild hunt dude sucks. I went into it not expecting it to be so long and by the end I had zero healing so I just let Keira more or less fight him on her own lmfao. I remember putting the game down for a few weeks in the middle of that quest, and when I finally did come back and finish it I didn't put the game down again til I'd sank weeks into it and finished the main quest and most of B&W.

goddamn Witcher 3 is so loving good

Just found out there's an unfixable bug if you bought the dlc separate from the main game, making it impossible to get wolf school gear. Good to know I paid extra for content I can't even access :downsbravo:

thats the only witcher set i like too. but i think you can get the best level of wolf gear (dlc quest) without having the regular set at least

I wish the heart of stone gear was upgradable like witcher schools are because I enjoy geralt walking around like a satined out Nigerian prince.

Decided to upgrade cat gear for now, and the stats make more sense considering what I'm speccing towards. The twirly move is hella silly lol, not sure how useful it's going to be but we'll see. Enhanced cat gear adds sleeves to the armor which was kind of a bummer. I liked rolled up Marlboro sleeve Geralt
