I guess they’re remaking witcher 1 in the unreal 5 engine. I’ll try it https://twitter.com/witchergame/status/1585270206305386497?s=46&t=m51QYi1TpmehGqTxdBbbow

I liked dice poker, but I like bad things. But I didn't like witcher 1. also one of me only tells the truth, and the other, only lies

How old is the "no girls allowed" canon (ie, when did Andrzej Sapkowski come up with it)? i feel like at this point the fallout from changing the rules so people can play as a woman would be less annoying than adhering to it at all costs, i say go for it and/or let me be a sorceress, it looks fun

And it's not like it would be the first time in history that a male-dominated profession shut out women simply because they just sort of assumed women wouldn't be up to it without ever actually checking

Yeah I don't remember ever having to grind, I feel like there was always a quest that was appropriate for my level at any given time in the game. Just come back to it later imo, the game offers you a lot of things to do, no need to pad out your time grinding

Yeah I played on easy for the early game and have no regrets. Once you get your first set of crafted Witcher Gear (i wanna say this opens up around level 14-17?) you become significantly stronger and even I had to turn the difficulty up a little to stay engaged. But I definitely advise against grinding for xp in this game, I don't think you should ever have to do that. Pretty sure there should always be a quest available that's at or below your level (if you're in the very very beginning of the game, you might just have to explore or progress a little first to find them, but I don't remember ever hitting any level gates in the prologue), and if not that, exploring the ?s on the map will give you something more interesting to do than just farm monsters. also this game is like 150 hours long even if you're just doing the quests, so I cannot recommend adding any length doing activities you aren't enjoying

The smashing the lab scene is so good, too. Like the snowball fight but angrier I understand the rationale behind the don’t take the emperor’s money decision but i never liked it. I’m supposed to be teaching her how to be a Witcher and then I turn down one of the biggest paychecks of my life after I already did the work just because the client’s a piece of poo poo? I feel like your average Witcher does worse for less probably

Captain Beans posted:Geralt isn't really a very good Witcher when it comes to the whole "staying out of it and just getting paid to kill monsters" anyway. He's always involved in poo poo, so really no big deal about breaking the witcher code about the bosses money My first intro to the IP was Witcher 2, which opens with Geralt fighting a battle in an army for a king, which as I understand it is not typically what witchers do

You can really power through it in a couple hours if you skip all the cutscenes you've already seen. I'm glad you powered through and are doing the DLC, it all rules and will be worth it

Wolfsheim posted:To be fair the other witchers are really annoyed at how heavily involved in politics Geralt gets lol Yeah i was under the impression that witchers getting into politics is unusual, or at least strongly frowned upon. But I suppose the contrast between the way things are supposed to work and the way they do is a theme of the series ("monsters and other monsters," etc)

SlothfulCobra posted:I think the big problem with doing a timeskip (aside from having to figure out what to do about the state of the Northern Kingdoms and Nilfgaard) is that the Witcher is in a fantasy world that is very much not locked in a stagnant medieval period. It's developing, it's changing, there's new technologies being brought in. Even if magic and monsters aren't fully dying out, you jump forward a significant amount, and the world should be significantly different. i wouldn't mind being a witcher with a gun

isk posted:IMO they're the gold standard for post-release material. Each is a nicely-sized game until itself. Blood and Wine is basically the perfect swan song for Geralt Yeah you don’t need them asap since you won’t be playing them until towards the end (B&W in particular is best played after everything else imo) but you should absolutely play them, they’re wonderful

It does seem odd that this game never got a glamour mode that lets you apply the cosmetics from one armor to another. Asscreed did it, we should copy them

I also thought it was funny that you could easily step on thumbalina and kill her completely by mistake. At least that's what happened to me, maybe you all were more careful about where you were walking
