As someone who plans to play with no mini-map, is it possible for me to get the quests for every '?' from a notice board? Or are there some quests that don't show up on there?

Yeah there's a mod out right now where someone removed the limit. Same goes for the resale limit.

Also where is the bank in Novigrad?
I finally saw some rain on PC. It was a thunderstorm and I had to move about in the open to see more rain, a lot of areas had barely anything.
Needs to be turned up WAY WAY WAY more.
Some areas looked good, but you had to move about to that perfect spot to actually see proper rain.

Town Square on the larger section of the map.
Where the mages are being burned when you first reach the area.

Are you on the PS4? If so, yes.
Main Plaza, look for a dwarf. He is also a amazing gwent player.

That's fine an all and I don't even mind it with the standard weight system, but dammit!!! I want to keep some stuff I've got in my inventory and de-clutter my bags. So many damn books!
That said, it seems like if I sell anything to a merchant you can always come back and buy it back off them. Their stocks done refresh.
There are many that don't show up on their and only appear through exploring. Most of them are on the notice board though.
Whoever said idea this was it was a brilliant one. Because novo grad I can imagine is a place to spend a lot of cash and getting that input of funds when you get to novigrad will be awesome cause I gonna be rich.

Mind sharing your settings file?
Using Sweet FX. Have to lessen sharpening just a little bit.

Some merchants will sell treasure maps that you can use and will start a quest that you can do. I think some of these are witcher-gear caches that give you materials, equipment or the plans to make witcher gear. I've got Viper and Cat quests, I think but none for bear yet.
dunno, a few hours id say. there werent really a lot of quests there which was weird. i picked up all notes on the board but only 1 of them was a quest

My god skellige is beautiful. Feels much more like a real place in topology than Velen. That song that plays when you arrive. Goosebumps.

On the plus side, your books only weigh 0.01 each, so there's not actually a whole lot of weight lost there. They just make it a mild nuisance to navigate the tab.
I believe I know the location of the level 2 upgrade, but not of the original set.
One witcher gear quest you have to collect 4 clues. I can't seem to find the 3rd map tho, so have no idea what witcher gear it is for.

It's very nice dude, much more like the original shots they showed, but their reason for softening everything was that it's easier on the eyes over a long period of time and I tend to agree.
I'd have to play the game with these settings to compar though because that looks beautiful.
Anyone got any idea how the sharpening looks with the new patch??
I've been exploring it for a few hours now and its my favorite area in the game. Totally out skyrims skyrim.

I've got the Baron left to do in regards to the main quest of Velen and only done a few side quests and explored some of the map, around level 8, having spent around Twenty hours into this game so far. This game is blooody huge and I can't help but get engrossed and amazed at how beautiful this game is. I am really loving my journey with Geralt and his adventure in this crazy world full of lesser evils and monster slaying. My plan is to try and explore everything I can of this part of the world before I continue the main quest. The sheer quality of the writing and the design of the side quests in this game are of a quality I rarely see in a lot of video games and CDPR have set a new precedence for other RPG and open world designers to take note from.
There's a big part of me already thinking it's a crying shame that this is the last game playing as Geralt in this engrossing universe. I've really grown attached to this character a lot already and love the voice work and small details you come across when playing the game. The writing is sublime and there's something legendary about playing this experienced monster slayer and how destiny has put the fate of the world in his hands from a time where it seemed evolution and society would soon cast these bygone hunters out from the world. Man there's so much stuff left to see and do, the wait was so worth waiting for Wild Hunt <3

I've done a few parts where you get to play as Ciri via flashback, and man...I wish we could be playing as her for the game. Geralt's alright, but I like her speed, and I prefer playing as pretty ladies rather than gruff men all the time.

Thanks. For the ones that don't show up on the notice boards - are any of them quests? Or will notice boards contain every available quests in a certain area, with the rest of the '?' being things like loot and such?
I like that shot's colour/style viveks86, but sweetfx isn't worth the time spent on it imo - it looks better in one area and then not as good as default in another. Or you don't notice it till later because you've been sitting tweaking slight adjustments for too long and fail to see the clipping on the trousers.

The presentation of quests/characters and the bestiary in the menu is unmatched in any other game imo. So much information, easily accessible and tidy.
Slowly making my way through the game and getting the hang of Death March difficulty. They've done such a great job with characters and dialogue.

Some lore things will go over your head and other relationships and callbacks might fall flat, but otherwise it's pretty easy to pick up.
This game is like the anti-DAI. It has both quantity and quality instead of just the former.
Away from my PC. Will send in a few hours.
Their in-game sharpening looks pretty bad. So I've switched it off altogether and using Sweet FX for that. Need to reduce it a bit so that it's easier on the eye.
Only around midway but I think this is going to be my favourite scene from the entire game

DAI feels a lot more 'gamey' than Skyrim or the Witcher 3. Those game worlds feel like you're actively a part of it, which is a feelung I had a lot less with Dragon Age.
I say give it a shot.
Need some advice. How much should I loot bushes for ingredients? I'm stopping every now and then to pick up stuff, but even early in the game's tutorial where there are fights that Geralt suggests building bombs, oils or potions, I go into the crafting menu and just think "wow... I have none of those components." I'm pretty early in the game so money is scarce and it just seems like I've got no money to buy anything nor am I looting any of the necessary ingredients for even the most basic alchemy stuff.

Yup, surprised at how touching it was. Soundtrack is so amazing in this game. For some reason I was expecting some red wedding type shit to go down during that scene, not entirely sure why lol. Like it seemed a little too calm and tranquil.

The lore in the game is so awesome. Creature designs and backstories are so unique
, especially the Crones.

Just getting started, a few questions: just did the first area (some sidequests as well) then went to the castle and to the next area with the hanging tree.
Can i go back whenever i please to do more sidequests? Should i before i go further? Or will the story take me back anyway? Just trying to get to know the flow of the game.
Also, how often will i get to new 'levels'? Just a few big areas or?
Thanks!

Things that don't make sense to me.
1) Why we need to be at a sign post in order to fast travel. Usually when i need to fast travel I'm in the middle of nowhere and traveling to a signpost imo defeats the purpose of "fast travel"
2) Why on the 2 hardest difficulties meditation doesn't refill your health. I don't see the logic behind this.
