Yes it was.
I hope to see him again in the game.
Werewolves are vulnerable to Igni and Beast Oil (I think). I didnt have the beast oil so I used Cursed oil (I have no idea if it helped) and used Igni at every chance I got. Yrden and Quen helps too, as it attacks very quickly. Tawny oil to regen stamina and swallow to regen health.
Another great fake from the Fakes Forge

Simple solution for QUICK SAVE on GAMEPAD:
- download antimicro (it maps gamepad keys to keyboard; opensource free)
https://github.com/Ryochan7/antimicro/releases
- set xbox guide button to F5
have quicksave via gamepad
im using dualshock4 (ds4tool) works same way
if you have xbox popup after pressing guiden button - just uninstall xbox app

Comments after yesterday:
1. What's up with that tiny ass font/text? I wear glasses that need an update sure but no other game have I strained as much to read items/entries. Fix this asap CDPR.
2. The guide is basically a necessity for me. They're nice enough to mark points of interest in the map but some quests don't appear until you're close enough in the map.
3. Does exp for side missions get better? When my next mission is level 5 and the next is level 7 and I'm halfway through level 3 something is wrong. Side missions are giving me like 50 exp max on normal. I still need 1000 at a time to level up.

multiple medium hits in combination with igni got him down a bunch, when he started to regen, I threw some explosive bombs on him, which dealt a lot of damage.

I need to know if I should get the eguide or the actual physical one. This game is huge and too detailed.
I guess they had to do this
The only other way is stupid invisible walls or Skyrims method of insane and implausible mountains you cant cross
There arent really any other ways to stop people exploring outside the bounds of the map
I mean in Borderlands 1 and 2 if you leave the map perimeter massive laser towers instakill you

Nice. Thanks for telling. So I guess we can respect as many times as we want to.
I am going there as soon as I start the game.

How do I download the first pieces of free DLC?
What platform?
They are only available on the xbox marketplace as of right now afaik.

Yeah, unfortunately, there's just no really good way to handle this stuff that doesn't break immersion. I'd rather the world look the way they want, rather than having to put mountains or deep ocean in the way, and just have a "turn around" message.

PS4.
On PC, Steam downloaded them automatically for me
Considering how easy it was to destroy level 7 wraith as level 2 while using level 1 sword I'm not sure how much level matters as long you are within "green indicator" limits. Or is your experience different?
KB/M here. First it felt little off, but after 1-2 hours of playing I got used to it and now it feels smooth/natural.

OH YES
LOL! He's back!
Just got the game and was going to start it up but before i can start the game it asks me if i want to simulate a witcher 2 save.
I,ve never played a witcher game before so "no" seems the obvious answer but at the same time i do not want to miss out on any events.
Sooo can anyone help me make this decision? Will i miss alot if i choose no? Will i be confused if i pick Yes?
Help me out Gaf.

Choose yes and you'll be able to answer some questions later in the game concerning certain events from TW2. Choose no and you'll probably get a random outcome for the questions.

Simulating the save means that you'll get a conversation a few hours in where you answer some questions about what Geralt did in Witcher 2. These questions will influence some things like, whether certain characters are alive.
Choosing not to simulate a W2 save means that you instead don't have that conversation, and the world is just in whatever the "default" state is that CDPR chose. I'm not sure if anyone knows what that default is yet, but since it mostly concerns returning and dead/not-dead characters, I can't imagine it'll matter much to people who didn't play the previous title (much like DAI's Keep system).
Can't stand gamepad controls due to intentional input lag. Mouse and keyboard feels better as it seems I have more control over the animation delay. But I'd literally move the analog stick and count down until he actually moved. Coming from 80 hrs of bloodborne and mid-game of a 30 Dark Souls play through, I'm fighting controls here more than enemies.
From what I know a developer at CDPR released a mod to fix this in W2, maybe we'll see the same here. I see the gripe often, but I see more people just having a good time so it could depend on experience with ARPGs vs pure action games. I'm the latter.

If you pick yes, you'll get a conversation a bit later on in the game where the game asks you what choices you made during the Witcher 2. There's a few guides somewhere, I think.
That said, if you haven't played, I don't think it matters really.
...So, say I said yes to "Simulate Witcher 2 Save", but actually wanted a default world state, but was so excited and didn't look up what that meant and am now several hours in (not story, but just screwing around) and don't want to restart.
When this conversation comes up, A) Will it be obvious? and B) What answers should I give to get the "default" world state.
Game is the first in a long time that has had me thinking about it in the gym in the morning. Took everything I had not to use that time to go kill wolves and explore.
Edit: Post above me is apparently the same question, will seek out guides now, sorry for taking up space...

Did you try checking hardware mouse in the settings? That helped the floating feel a bit for me.
Both control schemes work alright imo.

Installing from 4 discs is hell. Want to play now.
How much it costs? Or more importantly, how you break your gear so you need repair?
And this is why I opted to upgrade starting armor over taking that weird looking sweaterjacketthingy that I found from the box.
I had a reached the end of the world message about 100 yards down a riverbank from a bridge.

The man's personal failings aside, dude knew how to pick a sweater. I'll be getting my copy in just over an hour. Going to wear the shit out of that!
So I wasn't imagining it. That's exactly what first came to mind when he first spoke in the very first cut scene.

So that does nothing for me.. Scrolling changes signs but clicking doesn't do anything with the crossbow on my back. Halp

Hope they are using olde spanish for secondary characters then. Geralt and friends have to speak in modern, but the npc's need to say things like 'hideputa' and 'vuesa merced' to stay faithful to the books.
The W1 and W2 translations were really bad in that regard.
