I'm sorry if you guys misunderstand my question. I meant.

If both Divinity and Witcher 3 is available for purchase right this second. and you have neither of them. Which one would you choose?

Witcher 3, just because im enjoying the witcher 2 so much and because i want a good reason to upgrade my PC in the near future : P

Hey SteamGAf quick question.

If you can choose one of these games to be yours right now. What would you pick? Divinity Original Sin or The Witcher 3?

Like if both were available right at this moment. what would you choose

DOS. What little I've played of the Divinity series I've enjoyed, and what I've played of the Witcher series felt like a chore (hugely disappointing as I'm a big fan of the books).

Why just between those two, though?

Still a bit nervous about Alien Isolation given how excited I was about Colonial Marines up until the midnight release where I finally played it but it really seems like it could be great. October is so close!

Your scores are safe for now, I'm still trying to figure out how to do well on the Deadpool table. Having a set-up where your ball can still fail after being "saved" is really annoying design.

Whew. Yeah that sounds pretty annoying, yet appropriate for a Deadpool table, heh.
 
The other reasons that you might enter something that's not taken and be surprised when you don't win is if you're throttled, not eligible because of the rules, or blocked. In all three of those cases it will feel like you "ought" to win, but you won't.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see that you said I'm throttled.

Well, crap. How long are you throttled for?

The Witcher 3 needs to come out right now!! ;A;

But in all seriousness, CDPR needs to take they're time to make the game super awesome!

Divinity, because I've already bought the Witcher 3. :p

But if I hadn't, then it'd be W3.

The problem with this game is that I felt it had no reason to exist, nothing meaningful ever happens. The franchise could have jumped from ME1 right to 3, skipping it and retconning a few things here and there, and it would have been exactly the same. As far as I remember, there's nothing significant or important here, and even if 37 of the 40 hours that my playthrough took were great (didn't like the first 2, nor the hour or so of shitty planet scanning), there's still the feeling that it was an appetizer instead of the main dish. Side quests and character development instead of main missions and story advancing. Which isn't a bad thing, because as I said, it's very well done, but it could have (and should have) been much better.

Yeah, in terms of main plot it's basically a filler episode, but a fun one because the characters are great. There's a lot that I would have wanted them to do different, but I did enjoy my time with it.

Hmm playing MGR made me realize.
This sequel needs more female characters.
Seriously you got Sunny and Mistral who both don't do much in this.

Everyone has to wait at least a little while between wins. The amount of time you have to wait is based on the number of wins you've had in the last week. So as older wins drop off that time period, the throttle will decline in size until it's back to the baseline.
