I feel sorry for his childhood lol

 

He can assume anyone's identity. I doubt his childhood would have been that awful.

Pretty much. There is even a few petitions to have more Triss in the upcoming expansions or adding a romance dlc, its Solas all over again.


Lack of content and that Yennefer feels forced on them. I think both romances should have had more content, but it is only natural that Yen has more screentime than Triss in this game. After all Triss had two games more. There is tweaks that could have been made to make the romance plot for both float more natural with the mainstory. But done is done. We have what we have.

The real problem with Triss is not that she has less content, is that she has barely any content.
After Novigard you can only talk to her when you are doing Phillipa's quest, you cant talk to her after Kaer Morhen (even if you can talk to any companion after the attack) or when you are going to face the Wild Hunt the last time.
And others things like, her romance scene is equal as the prostitue no special scene, how if you romance Triss you need to kiss Yennifer in front of her or in the ending how its Yennifer that saves you from sunken ship, why not Triss if you romance her? CDPR really dropped the ball with her romance, but I don't think there is a need of a dlc that focus on her, but I would welcome a dlc with Triss romance as side-content.

Might I just ask, why is romance such a big deal? The Wild Hunt and Ciri, Kovir, Nilfgaard is arguably more interesting than some extra cutscenes involving sex or something.

 

Hope that didn't come across as too patronizing. But I am genuinely curious to why people care so much about the romance stuff. I thought what was provided was sufficient. This is coming from someone who didn't read the books.

For me its because i am very sensitive to stuff like that. I don't see romances as something that needs to be in games, but when they are present i always partake in it. I like the extra layer it adds to a character and its progression. Here its not really about content persay, its about using what is already there better and making it more fleshed out. And i understand that others don't care as much as myself and other people, and that is fine. 

 

At some points playing the game it felt more like a sequel to the books than the two previous games. I disliked that abit. Some characters got scrapped, or didn't have their fate made clear at all (can be fixed with expansions). Some plot points from the first game had to be reintroduced as if Geralt didn't know them (for new players?). Abit annoying. And alot of the choices made in the first two games had no impact. I know you can both simulate and import a save from the second game, but at no point did i feel like what i did in the second game mattered that much. Once again its not to hate on the books, but i was under the assumption that the games are more like a fanfic by CD Projekt Red and not actual canon? After all this i will actually read them and see how different it is/feels.

^How could you add an extra layer on it? I thought it was quite conclusive enough and seems to round off rather well. Despite not having any experience with the books, I thought the relationship was believable enough (as video games go) and it could have been handled far worse.

 

Even Yen herself tries to shift the focus on saving Ciri and making sure things don't fall apart so hard. It would be counter productive if they shifted their lens on stuff like that.

Yeah and the story should be focusing on that and it is conclusive when you get to the end. I might have expressed myself abit weird. I just feel like they should have spaced out the content abit more, added just some small conversations and made it flow more naturally with the main plot. Just having the npc's near and adding a few lines of conversation to them like in Bioware games would have more than made up for it. It shouldnt take over the main story, it should just fit better with it.

 

It is just a personal preference anyway. I am happy with the game and the choices i made in it, its just me overthinking. But that is why i love games and why i play them. It gives me more than other media does.

I'm glad Dandelion finally settled down.

[Call Me Jord]

Beat that Gwent guy I had trouble defeating!

 

Thank god for RNG when it comes to starting hands lol, it looks like he hardly got anything useful.

 

Got one of the Crones as a award, and that card power it has where it summons other cards with the same name is insane!

Video games don't have to have any player input to have good stories, player input is more of a genre expectation than it is something that makes things objectively better.

Oh my God, Yen teleporting Geralt to the middle of a lake...can't stop laughing...

I loved everything that happend at Kaer Morhen.

 

You're in for quite a few treats.

[Call Me Jord]

And Keira Metz is safely at Kaer Morhen!

 

I let her keep the notes. Her intentions of a cure was quite pleasing. And admittedly, by the end of that conversation, I found her to be quite cute. 

 

I'm curios, when you all woke up after that Moon-light dinner, did you get a boat to the Isle...

 

Or did you do what I did and just jumped into the water and swam there? I loved doing that haha.

Also PC PLAYERS TAKE NOTE:

 

Make sure to check your Texture Quality setting is at the setting you set it. 

 

I've gone into the settings here and there and found that that setting has set iself to low.

 

I'm thinking it has something to do with alt+Tabbing the game, while it is in full screen mode. Just a heads up

[MisterJB]

Yeah, Lambert just said he is not expecting anyone lay siege so, there's no point in repairing the hole from the first game.

 

We're so going to be under siege it's not even funny.

It does that every so often for me too. It also annoyingly resets to borderless window mode every time I restart the game.

Common Call me Jord, put the spoilers in the spoiler tag.
Lets not spoiler other peoples.

[Red of Rivia]

Wow, there is another Witcher, Karadin! Ex-Witcher! FROM THE CAT SCHOOL!

[Call Me Jord]

I...don't know what I find more cute. The idea that I was picked out of everyone before me about openly discussing spoilers.

 

Or the idea that you now have the task of quoting everyone before me who has been discussing spoilers openly. 

 

I think I'm going to go with option 2. I'm about to go to sleep, but I shall pray to you and hope your journey to quote others and remind them to keep spoilers under-wrapped goes well! A good night to you and to everyone else!

[Forsythia77]

I'm just gonna leave this sunset here to make everyone happy - because they make me happy.  Happy Saturday evening (assuming you are on the North/South American side of the globe).

 

[slimgrin]

Those clouds totally look downgraded.

So, finally got around finishing it, was quite a journey from 2007, looking forward to the expansions. While CDPR was busy patching graphics stuff, I could witness Quen in its full glory, all hail Geralt of Rivia, the OP invincible wizard-knight, with his trusty flamethrower always up his sleeve.

[MisterJB]

 

Oh God, the night out with the boys...too much...can't breathe.

 

"Lambert...you're a genius."

[Khayness]

What this game proved to me is that by focusing on story and characters instead of worrying about catering to every group of people out there equals a richer experience.

 

Shame it doesn't have standalone multiplayer and social media tie-ins though, just think how much better the game would be!
