Omg the traversal mechanics/controls are so bad. Been trying to get into this abanded tower for 30 mins. Yes geralt plz climb halfway up then turn back and run off the edge not only giving me fall damage but going the opposite way I'm pushing the stick. Gah.

Almost have my "photo mode" cheat engine table finished. Current features:

Timestop (freeze game while being able to control camera)
Time of day (go from dusk to dawn with a few key presses)
Here's time of day demonstration I did (I'd do a GIF if I weren't too lazy to record video).
A few shots I've taken so far:

That inventory tip is very useful. Thanks.

Amazing. Can't wait. With camera control, we would really be able see how much the engine is capable of

I killed Odrin without knowing :^(
He is the deserter that you have to kill in the forest (the level 5 guy).

So I failed the
because my horse was nowhere near me and it wouldn't come no matter how much I called it and he got away.
After he got away my horse finally decided to show up.
Okay then.
sidequest where you run into that guy at the side of the road who attacked that Niilfgardian caravan and asks you to get the strongbox.

Here's what luckily worked with my copy.
Uninstall update. You should get past the bug then. play till you can save. Save game and then restart PS4. Install the update. Then start a new game. This got us past the loading bug.

On the verge of picking this up on PS4.
Did the day 1 patch fix the framerate? I know the complaints were all from 1.01 or the day 0 patch or whatever that reviewers had, I haven't seen any impressions with the new one

It's a little framey in the cutscenes but I've had no issues in the open world or combat.
Any mods yet? Particularly to remove weapon degradation and/or weight limit.
I guess CDPR forgot to animate Geralt's face during gameplay.

Been playing all day. Done a ton of side quests and I haven't ran into one yet that didn't have a great story with it.
Obviously the "?" are pretty standard fetch and kill like things, but man even without them there is a ton of content in this game.
The Keira quest line is huge, been messing with her (pun intended) for hours now.

It runs well most of the time, had a few frame drops to zero and a couple more at low20fps when there was rain, lots of lights or ennemies. It happened like 4 times, 5 times in almost 10 hours. You can always re-play it next year on PC, you could have a graphic bump + mods + quests replay value.
Wish it had a photomode by the way. It should be a standard feature on all console games, it costs nothing and players always make wonderful things with it, unlike the bullshots.

There is a broken quest in this game.
It's called Dirty Funds, The Official Bug thread over at reddit claimed it was a PS4 only issue, but I'm on PC here and I have this problem.
It's perhaps best to simply say this issue isn't just isolated to just the PS4 version but ALL versions of The Witcher 3. The Xbox One version possibly included as well.
It will probably be fixed in an upcoming patch though. Still annoying to have a unsolvable quest in my Journal though.

i'm not sure which choice i made at the menu at the start of the game regarding witcher 2 saves. i'm pretty sure i chose the top option... will i still get to choose in the dialogue after the intro? do i want to or is the default good? i just want characters to be alive and present like
(mild witcher 2/3 spoilers)
letho
So can someone tell me if there is any differences between the witcher 2 and witcher 3 combat??? Or is it the same???
It is vastly different in terms of controls.

Yeah there are 2 photomode annoyances. One is no facial expressions. Second is no control over Geralt's posture. Even if you set the camera upwards for the screenshot, he still looks straight ahead :/
Honestly, based on TW2?
You just spend a hell of a lot of time managing inventory in different ways. I never could find a reasonable, easy way to deal with everything UI-related in the game.
I just finished this quest an hour ago

Thanks for the feedback, guess I'm picking up the PS4 since the performance is good enough for me.

Well, I think I broke my game.
Went to load the Last Current Save and it messed up--got the loading icon but not the loading screen. Tried a different save, same thing. Closed the game, opened it back up, and when I "press any button to continue" at the main splash screen, it just stays at "Please wait..." forever.
I've hard rebooted the Xbox, closed and reopened the game, played another game and app, then came back.
If I reinstall, will I lose my saves? Xbox One.

The guy who is the voice actor for Geralt in Witcher 3, is it same guy for Witcher 1 and 2?
Because I swear it sounds like I'm hearing David Hayter speak every now and then.
If Sutherland didn't do Snake in MGSV, The guy who does Geralt's English voice would definitely be a solid alternative.

Decided to take a boat off to a island a bit off the coast looking for some loot.
landed then I strolled around (I turned off most of the Hud) looking for treasure
then here comes a Lv 18 Mini Dragon thing chasing me
The Dragon landed and yep it runs fast. I ran my little Lv 4 ass back to the boat sailed fast as I could crashed into a rock in the middle of nowhere. Geralt went into the sea
Surrounding me were about 8 or 9 lvl 7-10 drowners

The worse is a failed quest
A few quests failed for me automatically which really sucks. Is there no way to retry them?
It's a common occurrence -- I assume that the Xbox will automatically keep your save in the Cloud, but it's probably best to double check. Here's the thread:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1048542
I don't know with this game. I removed weight limits in TW2, so I accumulated a whole bunch of garbage I never used. Seriously, all that shit you pick up? 99% will not be put to use.

First time playing a Witcher game here, and my first impressions are not too good to be honest
Aside for a few minor glitches, the game does look beautiful on PS4, but about the movement and combat...
I don´t know, after playing Bloodborne this just feels so clunky and unresponsive, hopefully it´ll get better later.
Also, just as I was starting to get engaged in story, the game crashes, right after pressing skip in the card game, like many other people here.
I think I had enough for today.
Maybe I rushed too much to play this, maybe I expected something different, I don´t really know, but I´ll try to keep at it.
Dont forget though that bloodborne is a very melee combat focused game (no early game magic, guns are almost entirely just a parry)
In Witcher 3 you are already a powerful magic user with many very different "spells" right from the start, so its like playing a high level magic user with large selection of spells/attunement in dark souls games but who also is proficient in melee and ranged (can equip any weapon in the game)

No. Saves are automatically on the cloud even if you're a Silver member. "Delete Everywhere" is the only way to get save data off the cloud.

I have to say, these side quests are addictive. While a lot of them do revolve around doing favours for people, which I think is an inevitability with most quests in any game, they feel extremely voluminous and meaty.
I've done quite a few side quests that have really fleshed out the games world and lore to the point that they could easily be part of the main game, and yet they're completely optional. Coupled with side activities and all the contracts, hidden caves/treasure etc, I can see where the claim of 100 hours+ of content comes from.
I can tell for example that after over 20 hours I'm still relatively early on in the story -
. God I love this game, technical issues on PS4 aside. I can't think of a single way it takes a step back from The Witcher 2, honestly.

I found an abandoned place (a shrine) which had no enemies there until I came back later at sunset/night and killed some ghouls (I think they were). So I think time of day may be important.

Maybe I'm weird but I much prefer side quests to the main story, way more combat and freedom.

I usually dismantle old swords and stuff, if anything nets me over 30 gold I generally sell that off so I can a decent influx of both crafting materials and money.
Some items are naturally better to be sold off rather then broken down because of the item itself is far more valuable then the sum of it's parts. Like certain rings and items with a "magic item" label
I don't know if this is a glitch, an oversight, just the way it is or what. But it's annoying :-/
During some fights, the game does not allow me to lock on. Now, I don't always use it, but for large single targets it's great! Fighting bears, for instance.
The two times so far it has been disallowed:
Ciri
And Family Matters early-ish quest
Both of these were prime candidate for using lock on, but it was unavailable for some strange reason. What the heck? like I said, annoying.
