Less anime more Witcher pls.
I just came across a herd of wild horses in Skellige, they actually look different than their cousins from mainland. Love the attention to detail once again. Ofcourse Í had to try to ride one but they threw me off their back, still cool that the game let me attempt such a silly thing.
The HORROR though when people go to sauna with their knickers on! That's blasphemy.The swimming in cold water and a shot afterwards somewhat redeem that atleast. One of my favourite scandinavian traditions.

If you cast axii on them then you can ride them. I'm guessing not permanently, but they don't buck you off. Love little things like that.
Oooh sweet, need to try that! I like the look of them.. so wild and untamed.

The ambient music on Skellige is also ridiculously friggin gorgeous. I mean even more so than the game's soundtrack usually is. Sometimes I'd have to just stop and admire the scenery along with the soundtrack.
Absolutely. Love this track too, particularly when the vocals kick in:

Honestly, nothing beats Steel for Humans.
Silver for Monsters is awesome too
TW3 in general has a terrific and unique soundtrack
It was my credits theme for the ending I got, so I've since fallen in love with this track.
Makes me want to go horse racing...

That one is beautiful too. I like it even more now that I've discovered the lyrics actually have some cultural roots.
The track that plays during the bits dealing with the Crones of Crookback Bog is great too. Not in a sit back and listen to it when not playing the game sort of way, but it added to the the creep factor and overall sense of dread from the bog/Crones.
Ladies of the Wood is also excellent. I probably posted it already in that other thread but what the hell:
//sod it, too late!
that Ciri track
gsfggskldjhfgslkdfjhskl
the goosebumps at that whole scene
Probably the most beautiful moment in any game I've played

In a similar vein, I love how delightfully creepy this scene was with this track.
The additional stuff with the pellar was a great sidequest.
Am I the only person who thinks the Witcher series sucks?
Am I the only one who gets bothered when people ask 'am I the only one?' questions?
You're never the only one.

Of course not. In fact, I can't say I really enjoyed my own Witcher experience. However, I recognize that there is some general gameplay elements from TW3 in particular that folks have stated that would work well for future BioWare games. I decided when the thread started to try come into it with an open mind. It's paid off. There have been some good ideas in here, and I've gotten the chance to get to know several posters as a result. The thread has gotten long, which is why occasionally stuff like anime comes up.
I'm not going to ask you to like the Witcher series. Heck, I didn't enjoy the Witcher series. However, the older I get and if I dislike something, the more I stop to consider if something truly "sucks," or if more of a matter of something not being for me. I do feel that there is a big difference in that, at least from my perspective. I don't think the Witcher is a bad series. Far from it, in fact. It overall looks like the controls are pretty solid, the graphics are good, the sidequests are fun and that the main story is engaging. I do know it's not to my taste, and it's unlikely if I will fully play the series. I still see what makes the game appealing for others though.
The only thing I could ask from anyone that doesn't like the games or didn't enjoy their Witcher experience to look at this thread in the context of what BioWare could learn to improve their games. I say this as someone that's a proud fan of DA:I, and has loved their experiences with the DA games.
Also, this has actually been an overall civil and productive thread to discuss concerns/problems people had with DA:I in general. I know it's rare in a thread with such a title (that could have been worded better,) but there hasn't been as much open bashing of the two series as you might think. Oh, it's there, but most of the posters in here would rather not waste too much time on that. There are plenty of folks in here that actually have played through both series. Some prefer one series over the other. Some other posters like both series more or less equally, but feel that both companies could learn different elements from each other. There's also a few like me, that haven't played TW series fully, are big DA/BioWare fans, but have been excited to endorse some of the ideas in the thread.
Am I the only person who thinks the Witcher series sucks?
Over 100 billion of people on Earth.. nah, of course you're the special snowflake here. Got anything constructive you could add to the thread or did you just barged in like a clown without even reading past the first page?

Heh, I admire your patience, politeness and mind that is more open than anyone else's. I wouldn't have the patience to explain what this thread was about over and over again. Especially to people who seemingly just come here to post a rant and then vanish into the aether forever. You have my deepest respects.
To be honest, the thread title was worded in a very confrontational way. This thread has also hit almost 160 pages, and I don't expect everyone to have read through it. It's easy to assume how this thread would be a vitriolic DA:I bashfest/TW3 chronic lovefest. I wanted to make it clear that you don't have to like TW in order to enjoy the thread and the ideas. Just be respectful towards others even if you disagree with their viewpoint and things are pretty hunky-dory. There's bickering, but we're into the "nerd" culture. It happens. 
And thank you for the compliment.

I did suggest that the OP change the title to make it more suggestive 
Truth to be told, I didn't like previous 2 Witchers.. Didn't even try the first and quit soon the second thinking "this series isin't for me".
But TW3 has sucked me in bad. The detail to the in-game world has blown me away.

Yeah, I saw that awhile back.
I don't mind coming in now and then and letting folks know that it isn't that bad in this thread most of the time. It ain't always sunshine and rainbows, but occasionally, there is stuffed unicorns.

Just explain how fluffy they are.
