So because spies are OP and win me every game easily I have been sticking to my Northern realms deck but I'd like to try out the others. Where on earth are all their spy cards though?

If anyone could love a sulky and uncommunicative. . . woman. . . it would be Geralt.

NaDy posted:Ciri's voice actor, Jo Wyatt is actually English and her accent is fine, what's so lousy about it? She's not the best actor in the game but her accent is totally genuine. People who have a problem with Ciri's English voice are probably still traumatized by Dragon Age 2 (Jo Wyatt voiced female Hawke).

Just realized that POIs aren't all revealed from notice boards. Think I've tripled the stuff in the "first" area, where you start at Hangman's tree, just by circling its coastal bits.

As a side note on the innkeep who sells the Thaler card: Buy the card from him before you pick up the Witcher contract that starts in the inn, or you may never get it; there's a chance he goes completely non-responsive to dialogue after.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Triss and Yennefer both over a hundred years old?

So if I have the Steam version of TW3, can I get the Expansion Pass from GOG, or am I locked into Steam? Wouldn't mind those extra Witcher 1 and 2 codes to hand out to friends.

Can I permanently gently caress up the Hattori quest, or will he just wait for me forever? And do I need to avoid that trigger spot for another 10 levels? I couldn't resist some dumplings and got in over my head Also, is there an even higher level of crafting components that aren't unlocked from the beginning? I'm wallowing in perfect diamonds and dimetrium and everything else at 10

^^ Yeah, maybe. I mean there are celebrities who have undergone surgery to look older. I imagine that in some instances a wise old crone might garner respect easier than a pin-up model.

I imagine that in some instances a wise old crone might garner respect easier than a pin-up model. There are probably some, but Geralt mostly deals with the top dogs of the sorcery world, which means they are all quite old. No one would want to actually be 90 years old when they could use magic to be young instead. I assume younger sorceresses might be more willing to appear their actual age. I assume if a sorceress ever feels the need to appear old for whatever purpose they can just cast an illusion.

It's much more likely Emhyr and his mages siphoned the information directly out of her amnesiac mind, then turned her out again. Letho does not say that. When questioned about Yennefer's fate, Letho admits his ignorance: "I dunno. Never saw her again. The Emperor offered me a mission in the Northern Kingdoms. As for Yennefer, I had the feeling she was somehow important to Emhyr. As I see it, they learned of the Lodge from her. Those Imperial spooks have their ways. All I heard is that Vattier had his men watch Yennefer closely throughout the time she was at the palace. Then we went off to slay the kings of the North, and that's where my knowledge ends." Since the previews show Yennefer working for Emhyr to locate Ciri, how can you claim Emhyr "siphoned the information" and "turned her out?"

Aurain posted:For a place as small as the UK, in comparison to the likes of the US at least, we have a lot of accent variation. I live in Boston now where people can actually tell which high school other Bostonians went to based on their accent. It blows my loving mind. Both my parents moved constantly growing up, as did I, but I'm mostly TX/CA/pan-expat, and people here peg me as Midwestern, which is basically the only place I've never lived long-term.  So I actually like the huge range of accents in the game because I grew up around other people who moved around so much you couldn't really draw conclusions based on what they looked like or how they talked, and it rings really true on both levels -- the fine distinctions of the tiny Northern Kingdoms, and the huge swings from the massive Nilfgaardian empire. vv- Nothing failed for me. I think if you have outstanding Primary Quests it might be a problem but I left a ton of Secondary Quests untouched from Ugly Baby to endgame and none of them failed. Depending where you are, the subquests relating to Triss and Roche might fail, but otherwise the point of no return is very overstated.

Ugh, sometimes when you think you figured things out you run across the ? mark south of Mulbrydale to find it guarded by level 7 Slavers and level 16 Nilfgaard deserters. Buh. Then you realize that you haven't touched a point of interest south of where you started out.

Every sign is good in different situations but Axii fucks over shield dudes instantly whereas igni does nothing to them. Puppets are a blast too- even if they don't last long enough to do much, they become a target for their friends the second they turn.
