If the game is aiming for realism I'm okay with this, because real life isn't constantly handing you easily digestible moral clarity

If the game is aiming for realism it does a remarkably poor job of it. It's not that it is morally grey so much as like... nothing actually seems to have any weight. Maybe that'll change later but at bare minimum Witcher 3 felt more of consequence early on

I started out with the intention of being tech heavy, using sniper rifles and pistols. Then I got a meat cleaver and used that, getting a taste for melee. Then I realized I had enough street cred to buy the legendary 3-mod katana at the vendor by your apartment. Now I have a 750 dps katana that turns me into an absolute blender and I'm putting all my points into melee.

So I guess uh...I'm now reflex/tech with a few dump points in cool. Works for me.

it's a bit disappointing the vast majority of side quests are either combat missions or get a person/item out of an area with hostiles

THUNDERDOME LOSER

I haven't had any problems with the game itself so far, but man do they not want you remapping the controls. I want to use my Switch Pro Controller but all the inputs are treated as though they're an XBox controller -- if I press A it registers as B.

I've modified the inputUserMappings.xml and uiInputActions.xml such that I think the buttons act as intended ergonomically -- crouch is on the bottom button, jump is on the right button, weapons on the left button, etc, though not all of the in-game button hints are accurate. It says Press X to Draw Weapon when really I have to press Y (which is in the same location as XBox X). Though strangely it also says Press A to Continue in the UI and it actually means my A button, so possibly I did something wrong.

Does anyone know if anyone else has created a mod/patch/config file to map the game properly to a Switch Pro Controller layout?

For reference, here are the files I created, which seem to get the job done mechanically:

My favorite side quest so far is the boxing one just because the first NPC you meet is silly. Also I like punching people in video games.

I'm really regretting buying this on gog instead of steam. Every time I need to update the game for a 500mb patch it gobbles 60gigs and maxes out my ssd use to 100 and I end up having to reinstall the game. WTF

Yeah, that was kinda stupid. They didn't even change any lines.


Is health regen completely broken, or is it just me? It says I should regen 4 ticks per sec outside combat and 1 tick per sec in combat, but I have never seen my health regenerate ever.

Could at least flip one or two, maybe.
also;

the charge up jump is a huge qol improvement, you can find all sorts of secret paths slash just entering through the exit of a "dungeon," etc. I dunno if the double jump gets the same height ultimately or not.

gorilla arms are similarly huge and can one paunch most lads in watson, I assume mantis blades are the same but I don't think the lunge beats having a non-lethal but still powerful option in your back pocket at all times

Sounds like you're bugged. My in / out of combat regeneration worked fine after getting the perks.

Oh is this a GOG thing? This has been a pain for me too, do you think I can refund and get it back on Steam while keeping my saves?

Found a way to get cheaper augs, got the gorilla arms and I'm disappointed, I thought I would be able to open all the random red locked doors. I guess it's a way for brawling specced people to finally lockpick or something, I've been opening locked doors easily the whole time with stats.

Punching people to death is pretty fun though. The dude also had this fiberwire thing, regret not getting that to see what it does.

I'm wondering what it means by the gorilla arm door capabilities, too. can't find any info, but I'm wondering if they let you punch doors down

All the locked doors without stats seem to be just flavor. Some of them might open up for specific quests, so it's a way to make the game world feel a bit deeper.


Also I don't understand how gorilla arms are supposed to work. I still have that 6/8 strength display on some doors that I had before I gained the arms too, and can't open them.

Yea outside combat no health can regen unless you get the perks for it or you eat food.

PS4 Slim patch report:

Massive improvement! Textures still tend to get stuck at lower resolutions outside, but generally everything is much improved. Driving around is perfectly smooth now.

gently caress it, I'm starting over lol

base PS4 and same, I went from three CTDs in two hours on day one to mild stuttering and pop-in on day two :laffo:

I did the street kid to get a taste of male V and it's weird how unresolved it is compared to nomad. Just you and Jackie loving up and then shrugging. Do I help that bartender later? What? It did lead a little better into the little montage movie I guess.

Question: do I have to pump tech to open doors with tech requirements or can I just rip them open with sick bodyt skillz and metal arms later? I got a gig to talk a good cop out of doing good but the quest marker is behind a 6 tech door and I'm only 3 tech. I never touch crafting my first time through the game so tech was gonna be my dump stat :saddowns:

Advice for the devs: Not every game needs to be Sleeping Dogs. If your hand to hand combat is unfun, don't put boxing in your game. And don't make it unreasonably hard to make up for the fact that it lacks depth.
