Woohoo, time to give those new GPUs a workout.

Holiday Monday for me, although it'll be unlocking just as I would have gotten home from work anyway. Extra prep time I guess!

Gorgeous OT, thanks OP!

I can't believe that my small vacations ends the same day the launches !I couldn't have possibly timed it worse.

Game installed. Witcher 2 saves have been copied to the appropriate folder. All set! I don't know if I will be productive at work tomorrow.

Oh shit, I need to copy my Witcher 1/2 saves across too. Is there info on which files go where? I can probably figure it out, but if someone already did the work for me I won't complain.

The download speeds for me on GOG Galaxy floated around 5-20Mb, but did hit 100Mb in the end. The interface makes it seem like you can't resume, but then it goes ahead and resumes.

When I found out you can hold the button down to have Geralt travel on horse automatically or with the other riders/following the road, much like in RDR. I smiled big time. Great small little addition. This game is special. I can feel it already.

Hmmm, so my memory and information is wrong then? Is it possible that there were two different ways it could have turned out?

I think there were still Witchers away from the castle at the time but everyone else that was at the castle during the attack died?

If it's a mistake I'll fix it.

From 13:50 you can see the witchers burning Leo and setting out in different directions. Hopefully we'll see them all back in TW3.

So how is Amazon in terms of sending promo keys? I just got my second 970 yesterday, ordered it on thursday but it says 5-7 days after you order. If I bug customer support will that expedite the process? Really want to play this tomorrow night.

Awesome OP!

I just read House of Glass earlier today so it's really cool to know that Leshen are in the game. Hoping for some Bruxia as well.

Good job with the OT.

Just to double-check about the various threads, what's the key difference between this one and the Community thread?

I'm really conflicted:

On one hand, fuck yes i'm getting the game tomorrow!
On the other hand, i'll have to wait until early July to play the game, i don't want to play it during my exam session as i wouldn't be able to enjoy it at its deepest (ie; 7 hours long marathons).

But hey, it's been a long wait and our favourite Gwynbledd is finally back!

Well there is a Bruxa in the cinematic trailer they released a few days ago so I hope they are in.

Very excited for this game. I have read the books and they are great, not being able to play the Witcher before kinda bummed me but I'm happy that this is now releasing on Sony territory too. Can't wait to dive in!

Legendary OT is Legendary! Great job though for real.

That said I now have something to read and follow for the next 24 hours until I can finally play!

Excited to try this. Never played a Witcher game and if it's as good as everyone says it is I'll have my next contender for GOTY.

Wow what an OT! Nice job!

I've been playing Witcher 2 and honestly I don't think I've been this excited to play a game in a while. Bloodborne was close but honestly my hype is through the roof for this one.

This will move to community one month after release.

Anyone figured out how they're going to make today go faster?

I just destroyed my sleep schedule so I'll wake up a few hours before the game is out once I go to sleep. marathoning House of Cards s2 until I go to bed.

I think I want to get this even though I haven't played Witcher 1 or 2, but PSN is down... If it's not back up by tomorrow when the slightly cheaper price ends ($62.99 v $69.99), I think I'll have to wait until a price drop :( Really I should anyway but at least $7 off feels better lol

Godspeed PSN.

Actually, I've still got the last 5 episodes of Breaking Bad that I've been saving for an occasion such as this exact thing... Very good sir.

Black Blood is a confirmed potion in the game, so there are definitely vampire types in there somewhere.

Awesome, awesome, awesome.

I can see me just straight up hunting things when I get the game. SO happy this is open world, which is something I never say these days. I really love the setting and this is the kind of game it deserves.
