I only ever go full swords and never put a single point in anything else. Nor do I use potions or signs (I might Aard someone if I remember I can do that, but not likely.).

Red Mundus posted:So I've noticed that my game loads slower and slower lately and couldn't figure out why. That's why people made a save manager. It can even backs them up for you, which zips them up nice and tight (which actually compresses the saves a crap ton; my 6MB end-game save got zipped down to 800KB, but that's because their save files are unoptimized.).

I just told him that it seems to bring trouble and they handed it over to me. And I was right because it has a negative affect in it's inventory description, I believe.

Baron posted:Yeah it was up to 500 megs! Don't know if it was because of that, or some wacky mod I had installed, but about every 3rd time I tried to load an old save when I hosed up, it would crash to desktop. I'm hoping a fresh install will fix it. Just clear out your old saves. The game is trying to load each one into memory or something for the list of saves to load and it's causing the game to crash from lack of memory most likely. There are a few utilities for managing saves on the Witcher nexus. Also, they can be zipped/rared to be a lot smaller.

Did you just recently start playing? It seems almost everyone hates the combat at first until they actually get proficient at it. At some point it just seems to click. Also, sword skills help.

I find the whole "lesser of two evils" thing funny, because in the book, Geralt says this when someone brings that up to him:quote:“Evil is evil, Stregobor,” said the witcher seriously as he got up. “Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I’m not a pious hermit. I haven't done only good in my life. But if I’m to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all."

Kire posted:This fixed it for me. The thing played out completely differently when I re-did it. What a buggy, hard to control game. It's also been reinstalling 2 .net updates, every single time I play. There is seriously a 5+ minute delay between opening the game and having it start to load. That .net thing is a bug with steam, I believe. Go into the games' folder and delete the .net installers. They are usually in some sort of "redist" folder.

AXE COP posted:Is there any way to stop this game performing "first time setup" every single time I run it? Using the Steam version if that makes any difference. Go into the game's folder under Steam/steamapps/common and find the redist folder(if there is one) and delete everything in there. If there isn't then delete any vc or .net installers you find.

Going with Roche is the neutral path as far as I'm concerned. He's just after the king slayer, and they have what you're after so your goals coincide. Going with the elf dude is clearly picking a side, though.

Lycus posted:No, because both choices in Act 1 are about getting someone to take you to Aedirn to go after Letho and Triss. I disagree. Going with the elves requires you to actively help a criminal escape from jail and help the Scoiatael. Going with Roche just kind of has you hanging out around the camp of some king. I guess you kill a complete dickbag, too, but that's kind of incidental if I remember correctly.

MC Hawking posted:So why does the EE on steam want to run first time setup every single time I launch the game, then hang on installing .net4 redst? I've verified my game cache and it used to be that I could just hit no on the UAC prompt and it'd launch the launcher, but for some reason now it won't even allow me to do that. This is apparently an issue with 64-bit .net. Just go into the Witcher 2 folder under common in your steamapps folder and delete the redist files.

If you aren't going over your refresh rate (or max framerate of the game, whichever comes first), usually 60Hz, 80-90% of the time then V-Sync is a complete waste of your time and system's resources. Always disable that if you're not going over your refresh rate or want less mouse lag and don't mind some vertical tearing.

Yodzilla posted:So I've spent about two hours with The Witcher 2 and I really don't know what to think. I'm up to the dragon attack and I kind of hate everything I've played so far. Yeah the graphics look way nicer than the original game (save for some horrible texture flicker in Geralt's hair and other places which is really distracting) but everything about the interface feels like they tried to make it work for both keyboard+mouse and controller but ended up with something that's lacking for both. Honestly I think it feels better with a controller but why can't I shortcut the inventory and journal anywhere? Why does draw steel or silver sword need to be bound to both left/right on the d-pad and up/down in the quick select menu? And what the hell happened to the inventory and journal screens? Everything was super clear in the original game and they're a loving mess now. You're still in what was originally the tutorial before they added the tutorial. Most people hate this section their first time through.

SpRahl posted:Pretty sure the option has been there either since the game first launched or after the very first patch. It was there from the very beginning. I've never had the option off, so some tool tips were confusing. Like the button to dodge the dragon at the beginning. Apparently with the no hard QTEs option you just run down the bridge without having to do anything. Which is what I did. I had no idea you had to dodge it's claws or whatever.

Overminty posted:I had a similar problem with a different game once. Other, more graphics intensive games would run fine but this one chugged at barely double figure fps. Turned out to be a setting AMD graphics control centre software (name escapes me), specifically in my case I had told it to force all programs too use the most intensive type of anti-alias in the 3d applications settings. Changing this back to using the application's own settings fixed this. Hope this at least gives you more options to look at. Yea, I've heard of this before with AMD/ATI stuff. Does it just randomly set these, or is it really easy to accidentally set it globally? I haven't used an ATI card since my RX800 in 2004 (back when ATI drivers were horrible).

I've read most of one of the books, and Triss wasn't in it, so it didn't affect my opinion on her either way. But when I played the first game I didn't like her, and that carried over to the second game.

The bottom left one in the second image is what I want Geralt to wear all the time. Except maybe with the shoes of the second row, first column one in the first image. E: I don't think he's really gained weight. I think he's just wearing more layers because he's further south.

Wachepti posted:north? If you're in the southern hemisphere, moving south will get colder. From everything I've seen it's suggested that Nilfgaard is colder (flashbacks in the games, reading one of the books). Even a lot of the screenshots seem to make it look colder. Of course, it's possible it's just winter, so it's just colder because of that. fake edit: But, looking it up, it seems there's a desert in Nilfgaard, so I guess I have no idea.
