Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Well the ramifications of my choices for completing the entire Baron's quest arc have been nothing short of depressing and tragic. If there's a silver lining, I don't know where it is.
Wood spirit freed because it seemed lesser than the Crones. Village driven mad to the point of murdering each other. Orphans freed, but to fuck knows where. Gran punished by the Crones by being shape shifted into a water hag and given a death sentence that cannot be cured. Daughter still hates Baron. Baron hangs himself, his raping, murdering soldiers now running the village.

I suck at Gwent. Lost to the tutorial, lol.
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
Nice, gonna try this out when I get home.
The exact same thing happened to me last night. I honestly feel heartbroken. I don't know what to do because I can't go all the way back as I don't have a save from before the tree.

I'm gonna look up the tutorial video or someone explaining it because now I'm really interested in it for some reason .
Wow, this is like a total and complete 180 to how my arc ended. Holy shit didn't realize it would change that much. (Mined ended up a helluva lot more nicer).
Rebel Leader
THE POWER OF BUTTERSCOTCH BOTTOMS
There's banks in this game?
I got so fucking lucky against that guy. I don't know if his AI screwed up, or what but essentially this is how it went.
Me first: +4
Him: +10
Me: +2
Him: +10
Me: Pass
Him: Pass, Round Over He Wins
Me First: +6
Him: +4
Me: +3
Him: +10
Me: +8
Him: +5
Me: +5
Him: Pass
Me: Pass, I win
Him first: Remove Weather Card
Me: +2
Him: Remove weather card (? Ok)
Me: +2
Him: Pass
Me: Pass, I win
It was a bit silly because I'd played him 4 straight times and got wrecked each time prior.
Yeah, one thing i've learned playing Witcher, the alternative choice never seems to have a happy ending. Someone gets fucked no matter what option you choose.

I decided to leave the quest unfinished because the town
seems to go to shit once you see the baron hanged.
How did yours play out? I can pretend that happened to me.

Played for a few more hours last night, I think I'm up to 6 currently. The first couple were a little rough but the game has completely turned the corner for me, I am hooked! If only I had 16 straight hours of free time or so...
What did you do instead ?
For me she's hiding out in Kaer Morhen (I probably butchered that spelling.)
Mine turned out like this:
Anna was alive, but lost her mind. Baron took her to see a healer. Daughter stuck with the Order.

Well that is interesting, 'cause in my quest i fight and
kill her in the end 'cause she was going to give some papers to a bad guy

Besides
she played and used Geralt put him to sleep etc more than enough reason to put her down IMO she didn't hesitate to attack when i asked for the papers lol

So I downloaded the first two free DLCs. Where do I actually retrieve the armor and such?
You buy it off the Merchant you save in the very beginning of the game, when he sets up shop in White Orchard.

Ah, thanks.
I like open world games, but pretty much every game once they let you out into the world post-tutorial, I get overwhelmed and unsure exactly what I want to do. I end up playing for a few hours to get a feel of the game and mechanics (what to do and what not to do) and once I get comfortable; I just start a new game. It wastes time, but has worked well for me and I pick up on stuff that I missed or screwed up on the initial start.

Just downloaded the patch, seems like the very little stutter that I had is gone.
Going to test one of the low fps cutscenes now and see if it's improved.
Killed the wood spirit, village was saved but the leader guy had to sacrifice his ear to the crones (worth it?). Orphans have disappeared (presumably crones did something to em, who cares they were brats anyway). Gran is kind of in a state of mental shock but is seemingly free from the crones hold. Baron has a epiphany and regrets everything he did and has vowed to stop drinking and be a good husband/father this time. Baron wants to take Gran for treatment to a healer he knows, at first daughter disagrees but then she sees her father may really have changed. She wants to go with Gran/Baron but he commander says no you must return to your duties. After baron disappears with his wife, the person who he left in charge orders soldiers to ransack the village.

Sometimes i have 40 secs of loading when i die... sometimes it's less..
I found out it depends on where you die and where the game put you after loading the save.
It's weird since i can have less than 10 secs of loading sometimes and at times it goes into the 40's

My general strategy for alchemy/crafting material inventory management is to keep Master and above stuff and sell the rest. Good idea or not?

So I finally beat the werewolf, what I love about this game is I am fixated on doing the side missions because they actually set them up extremely well. I cant stop looking at all the lore.
Quick questions though. Is there a way to find out how far along I am?
ALSO

I have just done the mission with the sorceress whos mascarading as a witch, can anyone provide info on her from the previous games. I know she was part of the order who tried to take power but did she actually appear in W1/W2?

New complaints
Swimming controls are absolutely horrendous. My god. And what's the deal with fucking money in this game. My Geralt is poor as fuck all the time no matter how many quests I do. I guess only Witcher contracts pay out? Also in the heat of it all I forget that dismantling can pretty much clean you out if you're not careful.
Other than that, best western RPG hands down. The writing is just, wow, top fucking notch.

Can someone help me out here? I've barely played the game at all. Had no time. Only lvl 2, but I'm stuck on the Griffin fight. I thought it would be somewhat easy considering it's kind of a tutorial thing. Was I supposed to do a bunch of side quests before doing this? It's absolutely kicking my ass. Taking huge chunks of my health. Even with the potion and food, I'm barely doing damage to it. I feel like I can't get close enough to do damage without taking damage in turn. What am I missing?

You post such cool armour finds, can you include their names (you can spoiler tag them if you want!). I love fashion in RPG games, lol.
