Witcher

Which girl did you choose in Witcher 3?

No one, because I never played Witcher 3.

...

I never managed to make myself complete this peace of shit past Bloody Baron.

some lore for OP, both Yen and Geraltie-Poo are hopeless cunt and deserve each other, Triss is reddit, Keira is MGTOW style bitchy cunt, Shani is im-gonna-get-a-baby-when-im-29-and-hitting-the-wall

so stick to Yen.

Those faggots still haven't released mod tools right

I read the books and no she isn't.

ye i exacerbated that for effects Geraltie-Poo ;x

Yen is worth it for the extra ending closure where she moves into your house in toussant

Triss is way too sickly sweet and I think they flanderized her character to make it that way

Not really. In books she was cute girl who fell in love with you. Least bitchy character for sure.

Yen. Somewhat because I was doing a "canon" run of the games, trying my best to do what Geralt would really do. It helped she's actually good as well. Devoted to Ciri and Geralt, sense of humour, attractive.

CDPR messed up though by waiting until the third game to bring Yen in. Its understandable so many are against her as they have had Triss for three games.

Is this the same game that has worse gameplay than Dragon Age?

Triss in 1st game was actually Yen. Alvin was Ciri. Thaler was Dijkstra. They changed it for no reason and than they repeated same story in 3rd game with original characters for some reason.

...

3 should of been like 1 with sex, I couldn't even bone the tomboy despite her subtle flirting and asking if you were still with Yen.

I didn't play 3, but in 1 I chose Triss. That was a fucking mistake, that bitch just wants to jump on your nuts for the chance at any political or financially lucrative opportunities that doing so will provide. Shoulda chose the nurse bitch who lives with grandma.

Play Hearts of Stone and you can bang her again.

Like the other user said shes shit in 1 because shes supposed to be yen, Triss is better in 2 and 3.

Well the combat was a hundred times better than TW1 and 2. Actually come to think of it it's better in almost every single way. Alchemy and crafting is better in 1, that's all I can think of.

Cerys is best girl.

Nah, Shani is sweet at first but she turns into a bitchy, possessive, manipulative cunt when you don't do exactly what she thinks is best, like pretty much any love interest in the Witcher games. It's almost like they're trying to tell you something.
In the end, I chose Triss, because after realizing that every woman in Geralt's life has been a cunt to him at some point, she came out the cutest. Bookfags can suck my nuts.

You mean like pretty much every woman in the history of humanity.

You should've read the sentence that came after that one.

Triss because I don't like being treated like a dog. And shut up, I don't care about the books, the only thing that matters is what happens in the games

Whooops

It was literally just spam the protection spell and parry

triss is the only correct answer

Parry doesn't even work against 80% of enemies/attacks. W3 was more about spamming dodge, but it had two different dodges to try and keep that interesting.

Of course, I never said it was good, I said it was better than W1 and W2. W1 didn't even dodge/parry, it was just spam attack and out-stat the enemy. W2 combat just didn't work half the time.

Daily reminder that Radovid literally did nothing wrong.


The only correct solution was to return to the Path and leave the magic users to flee Radovid's wrath like jews running from an easy bake oven

Problem is lumping in every alchemist and village healer with that. If he was just after the sorceresses then sure but when he couldn't get them he'd just find someone else to throw on the pyres. When you help Triss flee with all magic users he starts burning nonhumans instead. Not because he has any real reason to (I'm sure you could come up with one, but the game never gives one AFAIK), just because somebody's gotta burn.

The guy who went basically insane after witches fucked with him over and over and over again?
He did hired known friend of witches to help him without holding anyone hostage and expected that to work out.

Nonhumans were the ones who worked with nifgaard to fuck over kingdooms. Just as witches.

None of them because they're all trashy abusive sluts. I tried to go with Shani but even after all the hoops she puts you through to fuck her she ends up abandoning you anyway in Hearts of Stone. Fuck that bitch. I wish there was a bros before hoes ending where you could just team up with Siegfried or Roche and go around fucking shit up with them.


I hate how they changed him from the second game to the third. They turned him from a tough but fair king into OY VEY LITERALLY HITLER MUH 6 GORILLION MAGES.

Picked Yen because it felt appropriate. The fact that she moves in your Toussant estate made it even better.

They're aligned with Nilfgaard and act as scouts and guerilla forces


So what the fuck happened with the plot line where you save the heir to the Temerian throne in 2? Did they just throw that out because it may have complicated the "epic adventure" they were trying to pull off in 3?

I thought that ended after Nilfgaard did exactly what everyone expected them to, and betrayed them.

Radovid annexes Temeria without giving it sovereignty. Roche starts guerilla warfare against him in order to restore Temeria.
The only choice that has any impact from Witcher 2 is if you killed Letho or not. Everything else is written out to be inconsequential.

Oh and if you let Sheala escape, she makes a short appearance in one section.

There are people here who argue about stupid whores instead of picking the virgin swordswoman.

tbh fam women shouldn't be allowed to carry weapons

...

He says the same shit when he fights that girl in the blood and win expansion.

Equal rights, equal lefts.
Pick the virgin swordswoman not the whore.

I can accept you dumb fucks picking any other bitch over Yen but for the love of god Triss romance was a hamfisted piece of shit they added on the first game because the amnesia bullshit, dont pick her


That's the spirit possesing Geralt if I remember right. And they were talking about her not being considered a good doctor or something, not about letting inmigrants rape you

I still don't know whether they wrote that as an ironic thing or completely serious.

This is your mind on Holla Forums.

I tried Triss, and she turned out to be a fucking activist about "MUH MAGES". So I tried Yen instead and she turned out to be a bitch. Should've just stayed on the path and continued LARPing as Ciri's dad.

Also mad that I couldn't hand out Philippa to Radovid. Lodge deserves to be slaughtered, they're literal kikes in a fantasy setting

I don't blame them. The only remaining sovereign non-human places were Brokilon and Mahakam. Even Dol Blathanna was annexed at that point. They were like someone drowning that grasps at a swordblade to catch several breaths of air more.

Nobody dislike dwarf towns because dwarf dont do stupid shit. They produce iron and other goods instead. And look! They never had any problems either.

Radovid was a military genius but he was beginning to go insane, you would of had to of offed him eventually.

What exactly is the point of this thread?

what the fuck happened to Iorveth?

Didnt he planned to kill you right after you kill the bitch?

He fell of the tree.

That's factually wrong. W1 had repetitive but alright standard cRPG combat. W2 tried to be an action game failing miserably because of the quirky movement that the player has no fine control over. Combined with no i-frames in dodges make the combat incredibly unrewarding cheese fest. W3 wasn't much better though the hitboxes were more accurate this time and you get at least small number of -frames. However Geralt still has needlessly large animation pool of which HE, not the player, chooses from so every time you click attack you can't be sure what kind of move Geralt pulls off. It is influenced by the distance to enemies or something but it doesn't feel consistent enough nor is it ever explained to the player. Some attacks are god tier fast while others are useless and slow but the player doesn't get to choose what move Geralt uses.

He started to get paranoid and suspicious when you said you couldn't find Phillipa at the start, not sure if he would of killed you had you found Phillipa straight away and handed her over but him going insane he most likely would of because of your connection to mages.

He was supposed to be a main character in the W3 but go cut out, they said he is alive though.

The grandma was pretty much the highlight of the game.

Back to
>>>/reddit/

All of them.

Fucking Degenerates.

remember when that cute vikangz girl said that it
doesnt matter what man you are knight or a witcher, you'll end up pussy whipped.
literally redpill based polacks

TW3 got cucked. You see how it was almost all humans vs the bad guys? Other races played bit parts in all the stories. I wanted my elf romance or other races but that all got cut out.
I picked triss for romance cause she is tsundure

Dijkstra was the correct choice. Radovid had himself locked up on his own ship, maximum paranoid. Dijkstra was everything Radovid was plus lenient on mages.

I WANT TO FUCK CIRI

...

how about now?

I gave the throne to her dumbass brother as a revenge. Not gonna shittalk me, gurl.

Delete it

it sure feels like that. tried to play without minimap first then with turned off POIs but its so stupid since whole game was designed around it

...

Project harder, bydlo.

He's right though. They are treated like non humans, but rich and important non humans. Humans would like to impale all of them but killing a far rich dwarf banker isnt as easy as a hobo elf

Come on guys are you even trying? Ciri is clearly best girl

Never played the Witcher games, but as far as porn goes the choice is obvious.

You understand me user

triss isn't a bitch

Faggot

...

oh shit wat do

because you smell

Yes!

Yen looks good, but is a tremendous bitch that constantly puts Gerald down. They're only together because of a wish anyway. I don't get how he could put up with her constant shit any other way.

Triss has her good moments, but then she reverts to being overdramatic over nothing, and acts way to vague all the time. She should just sort her shit out on her own with a bunch of cats or something.

Shani is cute, but she needs to find herself an accountant or something.

Cerys is a cool no-nonsense chick with a comparable lifestyle. They'd be good together.

so when the fuck does Gwent come out of beta? I've been waiting damn near forever.

If that had been Yen's default costume, I would have gone with her in a heartbeat.

But it wasn't, and I didn't use alternate outfits, so I went with Triss.

oh, i just checked my email and i'm in the gwent beta now apparently. Shieeetttttt

...

I chose "don't play shit game"

Jeenofa.

...

I would've accepted Shani and cucking Dandelion as well

My dick says Yen, my heart saysCiri

You literally just explained why W3 combat is miles better than W2 combat, in equivalent terms. You also hit on the reason why W3 combat is better than W1 combat.

W1 combat is more stat based than anything else. You spam the attack button until you or everything else dies. I know you could probably oversimplify that to apply to any game, but the point is that there isn't very much you can actively do to mitigate enemy attacks in W1. The cRPG system is functional but the combat itself is ass, and anyway cRPG system in W3 is just as functional, the combat just isn't as shitty.

What a shame.


lol

Yen is the only choice. Phillipa was completely correct about how messy Geralt's little family is though, so he might have well just fucked all 3. Shani is never a choice because she's a career womyn and has no time for you. I tried to romance her in the first game, and it was such a fucking chore.

If you're a cuckold.

...

...

...

She'd be the comfiest wife. Gettin' snuggly by a fire after raids.

someone mentioned a floating markers mod but I cant find it, can someone help please?

At that rate your only option is Shani, not that there's anything wrong with that.

Shani

All the options in the game except Shani are shit, and Shani goes nowhere. Yennefer is a bitch cunt, Triss is a traitorous cunt, Keira is a obnoxious cunt.

I wish Shani was a main option and not a DLC go-nowhere romance.

Looks fat tbh

Best herbalist.

Is it safe to call Yen a tsundere?

Is it safe to call your waifu a whore?

Damn, I love this shit. I'm a fucking faggot…

Best girl.

okay so its FriendlyHUD. that and Preparation mod makes a game lot better and more close to W1 atmosphere

She's fit as fuck, but just doesn't give a fuck whether armor makes her look fat.

...

Is he trying to summon the djinn?

No option to tag&bag this one either, top sads.

yeah. It's as if the game is supposed to be a RPG instead of action game with stats.

I got them all but I ended up handcuffed to a bed. I honestly don't think any of those women were right for Geralt, but me personally, I have a thing for redheads. I'd probably try for Triss on a second playthrough

I liked the nymph

But it doesn't stand up on its RPG elements at all and ends up just being plain shit. I mentioned the Alchemy/crafting is best in W1, but that's the only thing.

...

shes nice

Agreed.

People are forgetting Yen is over 100 years old and has a hunchback. She uses magic to make herself look hot. Its similar to the crones.

Nonr. Kept Geralt a virgin, like I am.

If you have a penchant for non humans what about this?

no blowjobs/10

I'd be afraid that she'd try to regurgitate in my mouth as a sign of affection.

a small gift to you

i love inuit

blowjob porn is for fags, fag.

If it weren't for the beak nose she wouldn't be so bad.

...

It kind of makes you pick Yen doesn't it? I tried to pick Triss and they tricked me into doing 3 way that never happened
Do you have to be a total ass hole to Yen to get Triss?


Siegfried was bro tier, I sided with him in the fist one then the efl guy in the 2nd>

DO you know what Triss was talking about to that other sorceress the morning after you banged her? Something like "Cant let Geralt know": ? He hears it and doesn't do anything about it even tho she is obviously planning something Was it the assassinations
maybe?

Why you do this devs

Nah

That fantasy lives on in bad sfm animations

...

...

Yeah, that's right. And rich and important bankers are never killed in the series either.


…? Are you able to use any language properly, including English?

Huh? Cintra is done and dusted at that point.

Best girl.

ebin

You have to do the Last Wish quest and make sure you don't hit on her like a manslut if you want to get Triss.
That 3 way thing happens if you are an indecisive cunt and are trying to bag both Yen and Triss.

It's safe to call her a cunt.


More effort in those animations than A, AA, and AAA games tbh.

Cunt's probably more accurate. Tsundere pretends not to like you. Yennefer is very clear about her interests, she's just a bitch most of the time regardless.

Some of them use mocap now so you can get some pretty decent animations.

No, crones use illusion magic, but Yen, Triss, and other sorceresses used (excruciatingly painful) magically-based surgery. Even though it involved magic, the changes are physical and permanent without needing to maintain spells.

Isn't she not even that old and cant use any magic on her body due to being allergic to it?

They use whatever convenient for them. Witches in nilfgaard used simple cosmetics under the influence of northern cunts.

She's allergic to potions, not magic (she uses enchanted amulets etc. instead of potions). Also she needed surgery because she was a big walking burn scar

Meant the Crones of Crookback Bog specifically.

She does? Cause the one amulet she wore can be given away to her landlord as a 'reward'.

You'd know that if you checked out the inside of her abandoned shop in Novigrad.

I did, but that particular piece of info slipped my mind. Good to know.

NOT ALL JEWS

...

He was written by shitty w3 writers as a one-dimensional comic book villain, that's what he did wrong. w3's writing is a gigantic turd appealing to the low-iq "wider audience".

lazy sequel development syndrome

Shame you never saw Princess Adda again after W1, I would of liked to of cucked Radovid again.

w2 had better combat because your attacks aren't that of an attack helicopter larping retard

...

get on my level you ground vermin

Man, I missed so much fugging during my playthrough.
That one really got me going.

Triss because fuck Yennefer. She's a total B I T C H!

But that slut in your OP would get an endless dicking. Holy shit she makes my dick diamonds.
The fact that people call her a total cunt honestly makes it even better.

Remind me, was there ever a fuckable succubus in the series? I don't see one in those cards for W1, I can't remember W2 all that clearly. I know W3 had two of them in side quests but neither was fuckable.

W2 Iorveth's path, I'm sure I collected all cards in W1 but I don't remember one either, there were vampires though if that's your thing

Lol, so true

Fuck off

Sandnigger or fedora, you'll burn just the same.

...

my man

>>>Holla Forums

I've always found with the mocap the animations tend to be slight exaggerated after the mocap recordings.

Deus Vult is merely LARPery autism why did you get so triggered

This guy is the only true gentleman in this thread.

Yennefer (((Vengerberg)))

Two days later people are still arguing over whores instead of picking the obvious superior choice, Jutta the virgin swordswoman.

You romance a woman by winning something for her in a game, not just winning her.

Didnt the jews co-opt the name to sound more german?

Whats disappointing is that we didn't get the sirens they showed in the early trailer

Yes. Berg means mountain. You can tell by the prefix to berg if they're jewish or not - goldberg, shekelberg, silverberg ect.

Sage for off topic.

original

Were they not? I thought it was cutscene only.

They were. These things.

Fun fact about sirens; historically (from a mythological standpoint) they're half bird, not half fish like mermaids as they are always shown nowadays.

Homies over hoes.

Who that

A bro.

Count Olaf

what a shame rest of band is dead
and no Iorveth

I was genuinely impressed by the ending of B&W.

I didn't even read the books and I like the guy

That's not how you spell Siegfried of Denesle

Fuck Regis appears on that expansion? I thought everyone died rescuing Ciri
Neat, now I have to play it for the 2deep4u philosophical conversations

Buddy, B&W is great. Not as good as HoS but the ending is perfect.
Playing through vanilla, then straight through HoS and B&W was great and that ending made it a 10/10.

There aren't any. There's a manipulative evil whore and you end up killing her. Then you have a drink.

Pretty comfy side activities.


To be frank the ending is shit in both dlc.

Isn't that every moral choice in the game?

What? I believe you are wrong.

The dlc antagonists? Now, I was never a part of the torment cirklejerk but I can appreciate accountability being a major theme of that game.


No real choice involved when the game goes straight up (s)he didn't do nothing, (s)he's a good goy and you're a horrible, horrible bean for picking options that suggest otherwise. But to be fair the writing in general took a massive nosedive when they started pandering to bookfags. Fucking up Radovid and completely depending on crutch-vision and mary sue(s) for start.

And if there's any doubt I fried both them poor misunderstood dlc snowflakes, I'm just sorry I couldn't make them suffer.

I don't understand.
Although I guess you are right about Detlaff having a sob story. Not like it matters. That's not really the ending, now is it? It's just the final true gameplay segment. That bossfight, while visually appealing, was bullshit.

No user, the antagonists are the wife beating, deal welching, random house burning cossack and the angsty whore. The demon and the sap biter are plot devices at best.

I like both DLCs a lot but the endings piss me off. HoS is fairly okay but it annoys me to no end that you are effectively punished for not helping Olgierd in the end because you wont get the Serpent Silver Sword without going into the mirror world.

Olgierd was already a bandit king before he made his pact, he was already raping and pillaging his way through the countryside before making his deal so no, the wish didn't "corrupt" him like so many fans like to believe.It just made him worse.

B&W straight pisses me off though.Detlaff is a fucking psychopath terrorist. If the girl woulodn't have manipulated him, something else would eventually piss him off. He needed to die. And the cunt never once took responsibility for her actions and admits she may have fucked up, nope, you are required to bend over backwads and tell her she was totally justified all the time to get the "good" ending.

That really did piss me off but I was happy t not get the "good" ending. She was quite frankly not deserving of a "good" ending.
And you're right about Detlaff requiring a good killing from the getgo.


He really isn't though. He doesn't do anything to oppose you. You are right that he is not a "good guy" but I think that's kind of the point.

I think they cut him out because he's actually extremely racist and genocidal against humans and in Witcher 3 for some reason only the human side is portrayed as violent and the nonhumans as innocents who dindu nuffin. Even though canonically, and in the previous games, the Scoi'atel are shown for what they are, an Elf ISIS.

Who, Olgierd? You bet your ass he is. He'd even make for interesting faust-like protagonist considering Pan Twardowski the source material but obviously Geralt.


Yeah, but you can't kill higher vampires XDDD. And don't forget how you'll get the worst ending if you didn't kiss her ass enough while helping to save said ass.


They cut him and almost every other important character out because they didn't want to bother with consequences from the previous games. Seriously, it takes some kind of effort to beat ME3 in that sense.

Don't believe everything kikes tell you shocker. While it's not wrong that the story is influenced by that faustian story, it's actually based on a German fairytale called "Das kalte Herz" (the cold heart). My favorite actually which may be why I enjoyed the expansion so much.
Don't be a pretentious retard when you don't have original thoughts or at least the decency to not make it obvious where you got your opinions from.

Also:
Good job, retard.

how am I supposed to play that DLC now?

The spoilers don't commence immediately and far from spoil everything. Besides, if you read these long posts even though they clearly talk about the game, I'll say that you're just dumb for reading all of that.

Except you do, in the base game. Beat him up good, loot his corpse.
The entire DLC everyone is like "Dude, you don't want to fight a Vampire, nobody survives that, they are soooo badass" and all i thought was "wait, that fucker in Novigrad wasn't that tough".

whats wrong with burn scars?

no I meant how to play to achieve best ending. is it just being a cuckoo to that bitch?

Buddy, just play the way you always do and live with the consequences. If you want a guide, look one up.

The come to Rome/Moon references are 100% a nod to Twardowski. Second I already humored you. Seriously, how much further do you want to take this I'm pretending to be retarded routine? I'm sorry but Witcher 3 is shit in just about everything but the side missions and the characters that don't get nearly enough air-time. You baiting your ass off won't change that.


He wasn't a higher vampire. Those fuckers are apparently beings of pure energy that drink blood just for laughs and the only reason they don't dominate the world is because they don't feel like it or some dumb shit.

The entire DLC she's like "these people treated me badly, so it's just right that i concoct a complicated plot to viciously murder a bunch of guys and set up a train of events that ends in the deaths of hundreds or thousands of innocents".
If you ever disagree with that and tell he she's a manipulative cunt who still can't admit to her failures when the city literally burns down around her, you get the bad ending.

Well if he wasn't a higher vampire what was he then?

Come again? Geralt can tell her all the shit you want, my favourite being the conversation when he recalls Renfri and how he came to be known as the Butcher of Blaviken. Only requirement for good ending is that you get her a certain item, and tell her to reconcile with her sister.

A Katakan?

is going to fairy tale world a requirement for it?

Yes. Seriously, either roll with the flow or get a guide.

I thought Katakans are lower vampires and are barely smarter than animals.
Didn't know they can shift into human form and act humanlike.
I know Bruxa can but they are established as a form of higher vampires, but i thought Katakans, Fleders and Alps are primitive lower vampires.

The best ending is where dettlaff kills her and everyone but the dutchess is happy. Dandelion comes and gets you free and Regis isn't exiled

last one
can I do side quests only and then main story or are they intertwined?
I mean I would go main story multiple times then

Detlaff still walks free so its shit.
A good ending would be killing Detlaff, beating the bitch princess up and then throw her in a dungeon where they reenact her chilhood by beating her with a horsewhip every day till the end of time.

Some side quests are tied to the main quest but its generally a good idea to do all the side quests you can before progressing.


Both Katakans and Alps are higher vampires.
Katakans apparently get smarter as they age.

Dettlaff did nothing wrong.

I wonder who it could be…

I get the feeling the game plays pretty fast and lose with katakans and highers. Most notable would be that katakan doctor (main game, sidequest involving Dandelion's girlfriend's attempted murder). I think when they made him they didn't know how to do combat with a real Higher, so they just had him transform into a katakan in the end as the best they could do.

Almost everything he did, while completely understandable, was also objectively morally in the black. At least as far as human morality goes.

Absolutely not the least of which was subjecting an entire kingdom to a night of horror and massacre because a bitch one-upped him.

Yen's kind of a catty cunt but I can tell she really cares for Geralt in a real genuine way. Triss seems like she just wants to manipulate him so she can jump his bones, not my style, and I always prefer nice full bodied black haired women.

I still bang bitches on the side though, Witcher gotta do what a Witcher gotta do.

You a literal nigger or just roleplaying?

Would suck that dick like a baby on a pacifier.

I liked Rosa var Attre. Too bad the date you get to go on with her inevitably ends with Geralt getting self-righteous about how she shouldn't mistreat the locals.

I completely forgot about her and her sister. Oh well, I suppose you can never have enough reasons to call W3 shit.


No, you've got higher vampires in the sense of regular vampires growing more powerful as they age and then you have mary sues higher vampires that start off as deities and grow more powerful as they age. Think garden variety elves versus temporal chaos space marine elves except also incorporeal energy beings.

they aren't annexed, though, only vassalised. That's the whole point, really

actually, this is right after he drove out the spirit

Trips confirm: there are no good Jews

Only an SJW deals in absolutes

it's called a retcon, user


I found out that the best way to experience Witcher 3 is to get into the Witcher mindset. Don't give a fuck about politics, just look at stuff through Geralt's eyes and decide who to help based on whether they're a bro or a bitch towards you, rather than their acts.

Oh who remembers.

Geralt is 100% moralfag who pretends(miserably) that he is not. He was spending most of his money on charity. Granted that allowed him to be healed in monastery, but still. He is not fucking with politics because he knows that he will be a pawn. And he is. He was used by every fucking kind and emperor around. Not to mention that it will bring nothing good for him ever and he has absolutely no interest in it. He just want to live a good life with his daughter and a bitch of a wife.

I didn't read any of the books, is he really that bad? The decisions in the game allow Geralt to be rather ruthless, and that's how I played him

Well, he was killed while he tried to stop peasant mob from butchering subhumans. (he was drunk) He might pretend that he is not moralfag just like every witcher pretends to follow Witcher Codex.

You should of had a choice, it was shit it ended like that.

Mocap needs to be tweaked manually afterwards. That's what EA never does and that's why all the "high-end mocap animations" EA makes are utter garbage (specially noticeable on modern Bioware games). Too lazy and jewish to have traditional animators fixing their shit.

Feels bad. You can't even dick her when she is little, the game is very restrictive.

Nice digits

she is a Renfri copy paste, all black sun girls are the same

A higher vampire can be killed off temporarily. Even Regis was ashed completely by Vilgefortz in the books. Only another higher vampire can kill another higher vampire permanently which is why Regis had to kill Dettlaff otherwise he would just regenerate.

Really I'm just 95% sure that the doctor in that side quest during the main campaign was written to be a real higher (ie like Regis and Dettlaff) and they just hadn't ironed out how do it properly in terms of game mechanics (wasn't worth the budget for a side quest). Correct me if I'm wrong but I doubt that the books allow for a Katakan to live in human society undetected, even by Witchers and magic users, for decades (at least). On the fringes of society where nobody takes a close look and they don't interact much if at all with humans I can believe.

Its just an asspull. Just like they turned regular ice age into MUH REAL PROPHESY AND IT WILL HAPPEN IN A COUPLE OF DAYS while in books only uneducated bydlo feared it. Most educated people knew it was because of the atmosphere or some shit like that, in 500 or so years will start ice age. But in books we also know that after ice age thing will turn pretty well.
You both wrong and correct at the same time. Vampires and others like them are not fans of humans. They can do whatever they want but usually they dont want to interact with humans too much. No one likes humans.
Also vampires was supposed to live in the same world with humans before. They came on the same ships. However its possible that they came from many worlds since humans lived in more than a one world. But in game it was implied that they lived in a different world altogether.

Renfri was supposed to be better human bean than the wizard guy. He would stay in his tower while she would murder all the peasants around. And she was only bluffing about murdering them.

...

Its literally confirmed to be a real prophecy in the final book with the whole world being covered in Glaciers in 3000 years.
What the fuck are you talking about?

lambert is annoying as well which makes it sting even more.

I am talking about its nature. Yeah it will happen, but in 500+ years. And not because of magi hurr durr but because of nature. Geralt talked about it with educated people even in earlier books. So only bydlo thinks of it like some stupid bullshit magic stuff.

But then in the games it was magical bullshit.

triss reminded me of my bitchy feminist redhead ex too much (even the fucking voice like what the hell) and my autism prevented me for going for her because fuck that bitch honestly

is Witcher 3 really that bland of a game that the only thing you can talk about is
Is Witcher merely a western made waifu simulator with a tacked on action RPG side game? That's the impression I get from the OP. I mean hell even the Neptunia thread would occasionally mention gameplay!

No its only appeal is a good story, on the good way at least. But the gameplay sucks ass and it was better on the first and second game

But that's wrong (half wrong at least). The gameplay is way better in 3 than it was in 1 or 2. You could still say that it sucks, but it's an improvement in pretty much every way.

I recently pirated it and i'd say it was totally worth it.
What else are YOU planning to pirate, faggot? Fallout?

Retarded of the animation's author, retarded of you.

But how can Holla Forums get cool kid points if they admit that?

LET ME FUCKING POST

He's not circumcised, the animator just can't into foreskin apparently.

How? 1 was its own thing, but compared to 2 the combat is boring as hell, alchemy is retarded and the skills are pointless since they barely do anything
Combat in the second game was far better since every hit could kill you or bleed you to death, and the enemies arent bullet sponges they die easily as well. You had to attack carefully or they'd block/counter you, either try to flank them attack them with magic or counter them/attack when they break their guard and you had to manage your stamina carefully. The combat on the thrid game is just button smashing, some bosses play like a zelda game where you have to run around until they are vulnerable, and the leveling system is borderline mmorpg where you get a wooping 3% increase on the damage of one type of attack every time you level up, which scarcely happens. At least on the second game upgrades had a huge impact on the gameplay
They're all worth playing, but the perfect game would have 3's writing with everything 2 did well. The first game is just closer to a witcher fanfic, bad but on the good funny way

The leveling in the third game has a huge impact, a properly-skilled character could easily do 10x the damage per attack as an improperly skilled one, and that's not even counting the "Whirl" attack skill which is OP as fuck.

Alchemy in the second game was the worst of the three. It is the only area where I think Witcher 1 is a better game, because actually managing resources in potion making is a good system, but Witcher 2 does it so horribly that I prefer the free potions of Witcher 3 to that dreck. They made the mistake of giving every potion in W2 a massive drawback, which on top of the fact you could only use them out of combat during meditation made them basically not worth bothering with at all most of the time.

Witcher 3, if you aren't overleveled, also has high lethality. Not quite as high as W2 on its bonus difficulties perhaps, but enemies that can 1 or 2 shot you are extremely common. The dodging system works far more smoothly than in W2 and the sword attacks are more predictable (Geralt won't randomly decide to spend 2 seconds rolling accross the field to attack someone in arms reach in W3), which just makes the overall combat system much more playable.

using helicopter attack and quen spam is sure way to make your gameplay boring as hell

>bullet sponges
Wrong game, m8.

It's hard to believe we played the same games, but whatever

razor sponges, you get the point

...

Nah, alchemy in 3 is easily the worst because of infinite potions. It's the one game where it would make the most sense to have to gather a bunch of ingredients to keep making potions, since it's an open world.

I don't remember ever feeling limited for potions in 2 either and the bigger problem I had with 3's system is aside from decoctions which are largely too situational to be ever useful very few of the potions felt like they had meaningful effects. Even the healing potions were only marginally better than just chugging water and eating sandwiches.

Obviously you didn't mess around with 3's potions much, because they are kind of a big deal, decoctions included. Some of the best decoctions include +50% damage when at max HP, automatic quen shield when taking 1/3rd or more HP damage in a single hit (great vs anything that 2-shots you), and 10% life leech (great late-game when you hit for 5k+).

As for potions, MOST of them were extremely useful. Tawny Owl for instance is something you want to keep on 100% of the time becuase it basically triples your in-combat stamina regen. White Raffords heals you to full instantly and makes you invulnerable for a few seconds. Some of them are a bit more situational, but still extremely powerful at the right times. Only one that I would completely write off is Full Moon, since 1000HP on top of your standard 5-6k doesn't really do much.

Bamp

do strong sword skill work only on strong attack?
because they are some good skills in crossbow tree but god knows if they work on swords
and what the hell is "sword blow" from sword trance tree

I believe in 1st game it was impossible to win without potions while in 3rd they just help a bit. You waste more time arranging pots in your quickbar than you save on using them, because you can easily kill everything anyway.

Better Question: Will the Witcher 4 become GOTYAY by letting you choose a monstergirl over all the other generic highly modeled Source Pornmaker fapbait girls

Dante Must Die mode: The "Girl" you chose now has a penis, dare you prove your devotion?

Could be true. I've said a few times that the first game did alchemy best. It's Witcher 2 where potions are worthless shit not worth the effort of actually using them.

Of course by "just help a bit" they basically triple your effectiveness both offensive and defensive by themselves, and that's not counting the impact of talents and Blood and Wine Mutagens (ie Euphoria, +0.75% damage for each point of toxicity, easily topping 160% in practice). You can definitely win all the fights without potions because at its core Witcher 3 is meant to be skill based instead of stat based, or to put it another way, action over RPG. The potions and decoctions just make those fights much, MUCH easier.

Finally finished the main story, chose yen and settled down with her. How much shit can you actually change anyway? Can you make nilfgaard win the war? (probably not)

Nilfgaard wins if you kill radovid and roach survives. Emhyr lives if Nilfgaard wins.

You can. There are quite a lot of endings.

Roche, not Roach

Hey thats pretty cool, I did plenty of sidequests but never saw any redania related. Im going to have to do at least 2 more playthroughs huh. I probably didnt have a redania connection because I killed keira when she tried to go to him.

I chose "uninstall.exe" because I got memed by Holla Forums into thinking TW3 was an actual good game with good writing and good gameplay when in reality it's about as shallow as your average Ubishit Open World Experience™ with Arkham's Creed-tier combat and no meaningful RPG mechanics whatsoever.

the music was okay though and I liked some of the creature designs.

First you have to do Triss'es quest "now or never" where you save the mages. Thats also the quest where you can choose to romance her. You don't HAVE to romance her to complete the quest or get the assassination questline, this is just where the choice occurs.

After that quest ends Djikstra approaches you with more to do. Once you start working with him for a bit the questline dead ends until after you find Ciri, picks up again in act 3.

Little note you might be interested in, if you get the good end in Blood and Wine and romanced yennefer (finished main game), she moves into the house there. As in she actually appears there and you can talk to her, not picturebook narration bullshit.

Huh, I might have told dijckstra to fuck off then. Still need to do the 2 DLCs

It sucks because the Witcher 2 had a much better combat system.

Better than Arkhamshit still isn't good though. None of these games have ever been good and anyone who thinks otherwise has shit taste in either writing, gameplay, or both.

Oh right, that reminds me of the other condition: when you go get Phillipa from the bathhouse you have to NOT push Djikstra out of your way. Instead you give him some information about Emhyr.

Witcher 3 combat was better than W2. W2 was much more "arkham like" if you could call it that, with Geralt leaping around the battlefield seemingly at random just because it looked cool. In W3 it takes roughly the same amount of time to swing your sword every time, rather than being randomly different based on the animation the game chooses. This matters a great deal, because unlike the video you posted enemies will swarm and attack you in both games and many can instantly kill you.

I'll take that argument but it still doesn't mean the game has good combat.

Never said it did. Better doesn't mean good.

Now you're back-pedalling
Also, the idiot who said 2's combat is less Arkammy is full of shit:
3 had the better signs balance
3 had the distinction between rolls and dodges
3 had the tighter parry/counter window
3 ""didn't"" have the magical 'press button x to execute finisher' bullshit that was the final technique in 2's swordsmanship path
3 ""didn't"" allow you to just spam any enemy with bombs if you spent five minutes gathering herbs to brew

But for all of 2's failings, neither it, nor 3 are Betmen; They're heavy on the flash, but you can't just play one-handed, and you can't get away with ignoring the flow of combat. I won't go so far as to say The Witcher series has challenging swordplay, and the QTEs are a blight only slightly redeemed by the ability to turn them off, but it's not the cinematic experience it's made out to be here.

It's telling that a lot of the anons shitting on Witcher betray their assumption that you only have to face three opponents of a group at a time; They're playing on easy mode.
>inb4 [having to pay attention to the flow of your opponents is artificial difficulty]

No it's pretty much just what I've been saying all along. See

I was directing it more to 12555f, but then I'm the dumbass for leaving out quotes.

I pirated the game played about an hour and never touched it again. Do people really actually like the Witcher games?

Gee user, I dont know

Thanks for the tips user, I have one more question about leto. Does he appear outside of that one quest and helping out at kaer morhen?

No.

Thats a shame

is adrenaline tree worth it, if I get it right it builds up bonus damage right?

Undying might be worthwhile, but it never actually worked for me. The other Battle Trance skills seem to be pretty worthless. If you need help generating/keeping Adrenaline, there's a potion for that. I think Flood of Anger spending all of your adrenaline to boost a single sign cast is a poor trade, maybe if you designed an entire gimmick around it it might work.

dandelion

It's like you hate fun.

I want to finish heavy tree, no interest in whirlwind or poison attack.
what else is there to pick from combat windows then?

yen, triss seems nice but shes busy with her Moses complex

been plying this alot because I had no internet, and I have got further than I ever did before, anyone know when radovid is going to die? or am I going to get GULAG'd for plotting to assassinate the madman

Literally kill yourself.

Yen is the only choice for Geralt

Subtle.

Trying to deliberately gimp yourself? Whirl is OP, especially with the runeword that extends its range. I can kind of see why you might want to do that, actually

If you are dead set against taking Whirl then Undying might be the choice, or else one of the defense talents.

Not me, it's what you gotta do if you want to murder Radovid. Makes sense since it's kind of Djikstra's plan and all, and the only reason he goes through with it is because of that information on the Emperor's weakness.

Triss is hotter, but they're both terrible. Yen is a stuck up bitch and Triss pretends to be sweet but is just as manipulative and backstabbing as Yen. Canonically though, Geralt would definitely go for Yen, just the kind of person he is.

It's "Glass him" all over again.

im running game at almost max details is it how its supposed to look?
on some vids it looks nowhere close to that
