I downloaded the mod to put PS3 buttons on HUD but it doesn't seem to work right. It immediately switches back to the weird numbering system for generic gamepads. Halp
another question: I have a feeling I should mainpath at least until I get to gran soren instead of faffing about near the start, is that correct? I can always go back for those sidequests (for example this sidequest to
is taking me way off where im supposed to go)
look for some girl
considering how frequently the PS3 version loves to dip into the teens and single digits for a certain boss... kind of
That and the game is just quick in general depending on your play style

Half the text is blurry and not properly formatted at 4k, bummer.
I have an MSI one aswel. Go to manage 3d settings in nvidia control panel. Go to global settings, turn off all check boxes in DSR-factors and then go to change resolution and create a custom resolution of 1440p. Edit: Got mixed up

Warning: Skipping this quest causes several quest lines to be unavailable and the east side of the Witchwood will remain permanently sealed off, which is the only area where King Bay Leaf grows.
The easiest way to get this quest is to return to Cassardis immediately after defeating the Hydra at the Encampment instead of proceeding onwards to Gran Soren.
This quest may still be undertaken until Lure of the Abyss quest is completed. (Barnaby begs of you to explore the Everfall, a sprawling ruin beneath Gran Soren. He claims a new "presence" has claimed the abyss.)
After receiving this quest, Quina's Note can be found at Chief Adaro's House on a table to the left.
Some players may be tempted to veer right towards the castle ruins after climbing the hill while travelling towards Witchwood. This is not necessary, and will trigger combat with a group of fairly high level bandits. Simply follow the path straight to the Witchwood.
The Bandits can be avoided if travelling at night. Large groups of Wolves will be encountered instead of the Bandits.
The Witchwood can be difficult to navigate with the magical fog whiting out the map, however by keeping to the high ground to avoid the more convoluted paths and heading mainly east, the player should eventually find Selene's hut.
Before going to Witchwood it is recommended to have a Gransys Herb in the party's personal possession. After completing this quest, give the herb to Selene and she will turn it into a potion, which is the item required in the quest Witch's Brew found in Gran Soren later on.

Check my edit. Tells you how to create a custom resolution
I'll never preload on Steam again >_<
Should have left my PC on and downloaded remotely. Too bad it was too late when I saw Grief's suggestion.

No, you can't. The Lost and Found sidequest you are talking about here actually get's locked out really, really fast. To be specific: Completing your first quest in Gran Soren makes you fail that quest. It's especially bad with this quest because you actually get locked out of quite a few important side quests that are part of that quest-chain along with a whole area that you will never be able to access until you actually do the quest in New Game+.
So: You can get to Gran Soren, but don't actually progress any further after ariving there during the main quest. Good thing is you get access to the Eternal Ferrystone at the Inn in Gran Soren so you could just teleport back to Cassardis
This is one of the things I really don't like about the game - you almost HAVE to use a Wiki to make sure you don't miss important stuff like this.
EDIT: Well, guess I was a little late with that one.
hmm so youre saying go do this quest before going to grand soren then?
also, I just realised the pawns you hire do NOT level up, im still walking around with 2 level 6s when me and my pawn are 10. I guess the idea is to switch them up regulary
really into the game so far. I got a kind of charge straight shot now that does decent dmg and knocks back, and im using daggers more when enemies are close (like stupid wolves). I ove the effect when your mages put fire on your weapons

about your comment on having to use wiki, ( I was able to platinum the game before the wiki even existed,and no help from the internet, it's one of those games that I was really into I guess.

No just keep them with you until you are like 15 levels ahead, keeping them with you increases their knowledge.

Just wanted to thank Sectus for his converter tool. I stopped playing Dark Arisen because it was quite literally unplayable in Bitterblack Isle due to the way I play the game (set my self on fire before every fight and have two mage pawns doing all kinds of shit).
But my Arisen lives again in glorious 60fps!!

Yeah have two choices go deliver the hydra head and head back or go do it now,
carefull tho the woods are tricky,and yes you could get more pawns to help you that are better , but it might cost you more rift crystals.I'm not sure how the Pc version handles rift crystals currency and how much you started off with.
shit too late lol.
also, am I a dumbdumb or there is no lock on? I know magic archers can lock on for example, but i cant seem to find a general purpose lock on, like the Souls games (or Zelda lol)
What good does them gaining knowledge do for you?

Getting a lot of crashes when there's a save/load involved, really weird.

You do your tag proud.
Seems to be doing pretty well

So even without factoring in that these aren't all players, it's sold at least that many copies which seems pretty good for a rerelease years later. Will be interesting to see the SteamSpy results

You're welcome! And apologies in advance if you encounter problems when trying to use online pawns. It's looking like it might be a pretty major issue when using console saves.

I didn't make much progress.
But I did manage to snag myself Judgement and change my vocation to Warrior. Just need to finish up a few side quest sand then I can finally deliver this hydra head to Gran Soren for the billionth time.
The 2 hander life is the best life.

Oh, it's definitely at >125k already.
I agree that a higher resolution front for the interface and subtitles is needed. It looks pretty shitty even at 1440p.
Apart from that, I messed around with some ENB stuff and while it tanks my fps by about 80 (lmao), I have basically no idea what I'm doing so I'll attribute it to that. Just gonna stick to this for some nice DoF + SSAO until some pros publish their configs.

I second this, I also get random crackling.
Great to hear.

That's what's happening, I've crashed going through zone doors and on reloading from death, seems like whenever it needs to load the world there's a something that can cause a crash. The last one was fucking bad too, PC restarted, which I've never had happen.

How do achievements work with the save game converter?

guessing whatever fix is gonna make the pre-order DLC finally work correctly isn't coming today...really annoyed by that considering that's probably the easiest thing to make sure worked right
They're acceptable. The biggest issue with them is the UI wasn't modified to accommodate them, so you have to press a button combo to use your skills. On the flip-side, you can bind items to the number keys, and mouse aiming for bow is as every bit as good as you'd expect.

Yeah I noticed the "accessing server" prompt was there until I restarted the game in offline mode. I'm not terribly concerned - the awesome pawns I had 3 years ago are still with me.

So I assume if you're using a SweetFX preset that enables SMAA, you should disable the in-game FXAA? Currently using this.
