Oh man it's so good. Instantly ascended into my favorites of all time when I finished it

I don't really like how 9S plays but I'm glad he really does play completely different than 2B. Also it's cool how the music fades out to an 8 bit version of the current track when you're hacking, and that hacking is basically a 2d version of a regular fight

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

The twirly turned out super useful at doing damage and making enemies back off, but a bunch of times what happened was I jumped in and only got 1 or 2 hits in a big group of enemies cause they all got pushed away.

The overhead strong chop thats its heavy counterpart is rear end though, do not recommend.

it clicked with me better once I checked out the moveset he gets with spears but I agree, I missed the light/heavy attacks. you can definitely do cool stuff with hacking though -- also route B is kind of as long or as short as you wanna make it since sidequests carry over and all your transporters stay active , so it's easy to rush through if you feel like it

all the strong attack stuff seemed like rear end except the general dps one compared to the light attack skills. but i also used mostly signs because i thought they were cooler and more fun + the griffen gear mastercraft upgrades sounded badass and they were

i got a bug that doesnt let you progress in the quest where you find triss because some witcher sense thing doesnt show up. i googled it and all the posts are people from 2015 being assured the bug would be fixed in the next patch

Continued the story. Spoilers:

I can kind of see why rabid fans want Ciri in cyberpunk now. She talks about ppl having metal in their heads and having flying ships. Lol. At this point I wouldn't mind that but I guess it's already been shot down by a dev

My game glitched out in the middle of this fight and put me into an autopsy scene with the scar face other witcher guy while I was still status-effected from the fight itself. I thought it was a flashback at first until I realized it had nothing to do with anything that'd just happened.

If theres a non-geralt story it should be about the witcher whose name i can't remember that you're sort of following throughout witcher 1 but hes disgraced or something and then gets owned

you should be an ofeiri merchant and your objective is to get rich like torenko from dragon quest 4 and all the rpg elements are purely dialogue and gwent skills since the writing is a billion times better than the combat

It should be Pyre but with Gwent where each character has a set of cards and you gain/lose sets over the course of the plot

After flip flopping a bit I landed back on griffin armor. Muh DOT autism requires it, plus it makes yrden actually useful. I'm nearing the end of the main story now, most likely overleveled but that's how I do.

The Yennefer romance side mission about the teleported ship and the djinn is really good, and a great callback to the first book.

It's sooooooo fuckin good. I peeped the scenes for if you deny her and it's heartbreaking. Poor Yen.

Last time I was playing this I got stuck on that ship and couldn't figure out what to do because the detective sense wasn't working and the ship loaded completely empty of everything that wasn't world geometry somehow
