I kinda wish it would've swapped Geralt's hair with the person the style is from. Yen with Geralt's hair would look hilarious.
Granted it was real D:
Got the same problem too. On PC if that matters. Person in distress near the hangman tree as well, no key anywhere to liberate the guy in his cell.
I got this too, on PC. posted earlier today
Just the bandit camp or the guy in his cell as well Salsa ?

I know this was probably pointed out, but in the heat of combat someone might miss this being a rather significant detail.
When in combat, If you see an enemies' health bar glow or pulse, this means they are about to attack, if you time your dodge or side step when you see this glow, this makes combat very trivial.
Is there anyway to turn this indicator off without turning off the life gauges? Playing on Blood and Broken Bones is one thing, but when I get basically a warning light telling me when to dodge. I'd rather have to observe the enemies movements instead, but I also want to see how much health the enemy has.
I would hope when the modding tools come out this one can be taken care of.

Question pertaining to the quest gangs of novigrad. Spoilers
i never sided with cleaver and kinda ignored the quest in its entirety. It happened accidentally when I went with Roche to meet king raniban (spelling I know). Does that quest matter at all?

Yeah, I've been thinking the same thing since day 1, in fact.
I want to get rid of the warning, but I need the health bar.
well, from experience I can say even with that, you still have to be weary
some enemies have chain attacks and you dont know the pattern till it happens a few times. You might sidestep an attack and realize you should have rolled cause it's 2-3 blows, and even tho the health does "shine" after the first one there's no time to react
it'd be nice tho, sure.

OMG this is real life!!!Last 2 shots for the night of PC Ultra with Vivek's SweetFX pre set. Game looks phenomenal with this, and much closer to the early reveals but idk, I'm a bit torn on it. At times it feels perfect and seems to really bring out the detail of the world, but at the same time part of me feels too much of the "fantasy" colors are lost in other scenarios. IDK, tough call for me honestly on which to keep. The SweetFX or the original. I may just alternate between the 2 depending on what mood I'm in.
This game is so good, but I have no time to play it

The controls are great (on a gamepad) so yes. I am playing in 60fps so responsiveness is perfect though.
That looks stunning, but yeah I think I prefer the more colorful default look.
This seems great for screenshots but I don't think I would enjoy playing with it as much.
I assume they will fix it. They are normally a blacksmith or a barber trapped and they wait for you in claywitch normally from the other prisoner in Velen, not a deal breaker. The white icon do bug me though.

Can I use this preset? How do I do this?
Is SweetFX similar to that of Skyrim ENB?

That one I had to meditate and load a few times to get the bandit leader to show up and drop the key....but it did finally drop
Did the SweetFX cost many frames? I really only have 1-2 to spare for constant 60 I believe.
Well I just beat the game... And I'm literally in tears.
I honestly haven't been so satisfied with the ending of a Movie, Book or Game series since LOTR. I really don't even know what else to say... CDPR just fucking nailed it. The series is the most well told story in video games, bar none.
For anyone out there who is playing The Witcher 3 as their first Witcher game, if you ever go to replay it I would highly recommend playing through the first 2 games as well. And if you really want the absolute most incredible experience, read the novel series. There's so much in TW3 that benefits from having that novel background, more-so than either of the previous games.

Hmm meditate makes the enemies come back ? I never noticed. Do you know how long yo gotta meditate for them to respawn ?

I expect I will have similar reaction, being the witcher fan of 16 years that I am.
Good to see it did not disappoint. Of course, with my playstyle, I will see the end in months, probably. And that's with the next 14 days being work-free

Holy mother of God the valley Boxholm sits in is one of the most beautiful environments I've been to in a game. Just when I think my mind has glazed a bit and adjusted to the world I keep getting surprised and wowed, 50 plus hours in. THIS GAME.

Play on death March instead. BBB is too easy.
That's ridiculous. Takes less than 20 seconds on PC, and that's with an HDD. Not saying that to gloat, but to point out how strange the difference is.

Yeah you can use it. A fellow GAFer Vivek made it. You'll need to download SweetFX and his pre set
This is somewhat how I feel but idk its tough. Theres times I'm walking around and it looks like the most realistic game I've ever seen. But then other times where I really miss the vibrant fantasy colors. Its tough to choose as both have their strengths
Nah, it was a pretty small performance hit for me.

Controls are not great when you have to turn like a truck to change direction. It has nothing to do with frame rate.

You really need to try a higher difficulty then. The enemies are way more aggressive and you can't make many/any mistakes. Combat is art in this game.

I meditated a few times when i got this bug but nothing happened and then i grew tired and left.I will go back and see if the bandit leader spawns when i get the chance.

Not long.
I was fighting in the woods in White Orchard, the area with the Nekkers killing rabbits and wolves in the woods. Southwest of the Sawmill sign posts.
It apparently has infinitely spawning Nekkers, so enemies do indeed respawn.
Nekkers are good to hunt because that drop both Blue and Green Mutagens. Collect enough of them you can merge them to make better Mutagens. It doesn't take long to get the 9 of each to make a Greater Green and Blue Mutagen.

Well decided to go ahead and give it a go. Picked it up yesterday.
Beat the prologue, pretty good so far.
I am assuming that I get better access to materials to craft potions because at this point I cant find any worthwhile mats. I have collected a ton of herbs and stuff but so far the only potion I crafted was Thunderbolt and I am pretty sure the game gave me the mats for that to fight

Lol, me too everytime I see it.
It's taken from April fools joke earlier this year.
The first two are like hairstyle for both Triss and Yennefer
You should make Swallow as well it's one of your option for healing. When your looking for alchemy material, check with a crafter you can destroy a lot of things for different alchemy materials.
I feel like Stannis in your avatar is reacting to those haircuts.

Topics don't lock until the 200th page, or 20000 posts.
We still have another 23 pages left of this topic before an OT2 goes up.
Anyone playing with the entire right half of the HUD disabled? (Map, active quest and commands).
Feels so fresh to explore and search for things all at once. The world feels greater that way.
Maybe I'm a little OCD about those things but I hate to follow markers or being too focused on what the game told me to do.

Well walking a decent distance and meditating usually does the trick. I've mediated for maybe 2 hours and have had enemies spawn on me lol
Off to bed everyone night and enjoy hunting!
