Ahhhh yes the Autoloot mod + disabling weight limit owns really cuts out a lot of useless loving around

Do folks really have weight limit issues? I use autoloot and pick up even all the swords and poo poo people drop, and I never have problems with weight. I make fairly routine stops to repair and sell and things work out just fine.

God i can't wait to see that and the Blaviken poo poo on TV. Cavill sounds a bit like Cockle and a bit like an Englishman. It's gonna be radical. I can't wait. I'm very excited.

I had the misfortune of clicking on a link that looked too familiar to a different website and ended up being some dumb rag about how people are "outraged" that the show will be focusing more on Ciri and Yen and that Geralt won't really be the main protagonist. When the article claimed that the books were about Geralt's adventures I knew I'd taken a wrong turn because they had clearly never read the books. The main books were always about Ciri first and foremost, with Geralt being more of a supporting character. Besides all that, the books also go off on wild tangents to random characters all the time to help flesh out the world and contextualize the greater world beyond "Geralt wanders around moping" and "Ciri kills a lot of people."

I had issues in the sense that I would hit the limit and feel the need to go out of my way to sell some poo poo off. I never found it all that annoying though. It would just require diversion from what I was planning on doing next once every 2-3 hours of gameplay.

Look Sir Droids posted:Well that's why you never had weight limit issues. I sort-of get it, it's just neat to see the "issues" that mods fix that I'd never noticed as annoying until folks said they were. Like the no fall damage and no slowing down in knee deep water mods. I didn't fall enough (and if I did I learned to roll) to ever take damage and I never had an issue with Geralt slowing down in water. That said, I am using autoloot mod and that makes things nice and easy already, but if the Witcher 3 had no mods at all, I'd still rate it as a relatively perfect game and I have no complaints about it having 500 hours in it now.

Yeah it's not stuff that needs to be fixed but it's... nice.

Right. None of this stuff seems worth modding to me. It just wasn't a big deal. The only things I'd like to mod are things that will alter and improve how I approach the game. Like the mod that takes away the mini-map so I'm enjoying the world more.

There's a similar mod for Witcher 2 that hides the interface unless you're hurt or in the "pause/signs" menu. It's great to have it just be Geralt and the world and the games work very well in that regard.

Call me a dummy but before now I was always a little confused as to why Roche flips poo poo at Ves when she goes off to ambush the Nilfgaardians. I thought he was just angry because he was protective of her and she was being a petulant rear end in a top hat for disobeying orders. I can't believe I never connected the dots that Ves nearly torpedoed the Temerian sovereignty negotiations Roche and Thaler had arranged with Nilfgaard. That's a good reason to be pissed off.

That quest annoyed me because her outfit design is just so flagrantly pandering, and then Roche yells at her about it and her response is "you're not my dad"? It made her just so stupid and immature, and was such a flimsy fake justification for her design. It's still juvenile pandering even if you have your characters complain about it!

The best thing in Witcher 2 was when Geralt gets drunk with Ves and ends up with the that embarrassing/amazing tattoo.

It is a shame that Ves feels like she took a step back from where she was in Witcher 2. In that game she was trying to prove herself among the Blue Stripes and she was certainly capable of fighting as well as spying. In Witcher 3 she feels like a petulant teenager that Roche has to babysit.

The real Witche 2 dilemma was if Ioverth or Roche is the better Bro pick?

It's Iorveth. Hanging around genocidal paramilitarists is bad and getting the Temerian equivalent of a deaths head tattoo is worse.

Fact of the matter is Roche is your Broche no matter which path you pick. Roche has a better Act 3 while Iorveth's Act 2 has Sheldon Skaggs ranting about a gently caress-Date and Triss ruining Happy Troll Family and Danfelion's Adventures with Succubi. And Lesbomancy, Prince Penis and anything Yarpen Zigrin says. Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Nov 1, 2019 |

You’re pathetic, with your little stolen sacks of seeds on pack horses, with your handful of grain, that tiny crumb thanks to which you plan to survive. And with that mission of yours which is supposed to turn your thoughts from imminent annihilation. Because you know this is the end. Nothing will sprout or yield crops on the plateaux, nothing will save you now. But you live long, and you will live very long in arrogant isolation, fewer and fewer of you, growing weaker and weaker, more and more bitter. And you know what’ll happen then, Filavandrel. You know that desperate young men with the eyes of hundred-year-old men and withered, barren and sick girls like Toruviel will lead those who can still hold a sword and bow in their hands, down into the valleys. You’ll come down into the blossoming valleys to meet death, wanting to die honourably, in battle, and not in sick beds of misery, where anaemia, tuberculosis and scurvy will send you. Then, long-living Aen Seidhe, you’ll remember me. You’ll remember that I pitied you. And you’ll understand that I was right.

I’m pretty sure I locked myself out of completing my deck because an innkeeper in Novigrad died in a quest before I thought to play him.
