Exactly. Throw in the fact that Witchers are given a sweet leather jacket and it's pretty clear that they're medieval bikies.

Kind of have to agree with the others, unless they create a meaningful relationship with Yennefer in the Witcher 3 (and not have it just be, you spend most of the game with her while Triss is away), I'd have to pick Triss.Kyaw said:
How is Yennefer?
She's more pre-Witcher 1 Geralt's soulmate. To an extent they're (or at least have the potential to be) quite different.toasty_T said:

I'm Polish and i've read all the books numerous of times and yeah - Yennefer is THE love of Geralt, despite what he feels for Triss.
They did split up a lot of times, Geralt had other women in between (Triss was one of those), but he always came back to Yen, in a sense they are meant for each other (short story The Last Wish ).
They did a poor job with explaining that in the games, but hopefully they'll get into that in the third one - especially since (hopefully) Geralt will get his memories back and Yen will make an appearance.

Gameplay Balance? You are goddamn Geralt the white wolf. If fucking people up wasnt you day job, he would do it for a hobby and as another hobby when he gets bored with the first one. Being able to ruin people with such finesse in W2 was a joy to play and see.RedSwirl said:
Cant wait for dark mode to replay the game.
Will probably finish Blood of Elves today at work (its slow, and what im doing right now as well eating a pop tart) Yennefer is pretty awesome but i really like triss. Plus gingers make me tingle.

I preordered this game on gog back in the day, and I finally just started playing it yesterday. Playing on my import, and it was so good to see the Raven armor again.
This game is amazing! I've only gotten through the intro, but it was done in such a great way! The combat has a heavy learning curve to it after playing through the first's. I'm really liking it so far, other than a few spots where the camera would hang back into tree limbs or other environmental stuff that ended with me getting sliced up.
By the by, is there a keyboard shortcut to sheathe your current weapon? I just keep pressing 1/2 to sheathe my appropriate weapon.
I'm not terribly happy about how they keep you from switching between journal or inventory or character stats while you're in a menu window. It seems like a thing that should have been addressed by now.
Best addition- press Z to have your medallion send out that scan field. I'm so OCD about picking up items and finding every door, so this is the best thing ever for me.
I feel a little guilty but not really that I did use one cheat already. I had no idea this game used an encumbrance system, and the moment I opened my inventory to find weight added to my items I said "this will not do." I know there are some people who get their rocks off to that sort of thing, but that is not something I want to mess with. Zero item weight, mwahahaha!
Really looking forward to diving into it more, and so glad I finally got the time to sink my teeth into this.
Also, is it just me or is Geralt's audio really quiet most of the time in comparison to the other character audio?

Just completed Witcher 2 on Roaches path
. I loved the game, but I'm still deciding where I stand because there's so much to digest. Crazy how much actually happens in the game. It owns either way.
didn't let roche kill hanslet, spared the dragon and didn't kill letho cause he seemed chill actually

I can't see me leaving triss either. I might do it on my pro non-human save but for my main file I just wouldn't be able to do it. The old geralt might have loved yennefer, but Geralts really not the same person he was anymore.
Getting back into this game. Question about Chapter 2: How do you get to
the main part of Vergen? Do you not access it until after breaking the curse? I can tell these big iron doors near the Old Gate lead me in, but they are closed off. Just seems odd to be here without access to the usual stuff, Inn blacksmith, etc.
Finally had some time to play and I just (Chapter one spoiler)
which was awesome.
When I arrived in
, I noticed a weird visual glitch kinda like lines of static whenever I moved my camera around. I am uploading a video now and can't see anything with pictures. I have loaded other parts of the game and the lines are not there. They are only in
when I am outside near bushes and tress. If I am inside, they are not visible. Anyone else hear about this or experienced this first hand?
I have updated drivers, changed settings around, and tried different displays. No other game has this problem so I don't think its the video card. Anyway, so far I am loving the game and can't wait to play more.
