To me...the biggest "bug/issue" for the PS4 would be the crashing when selecting Pass in gwent.
I hope they patch that quickly for PS4 owners

I don't think so... in fact says "Español (Latino)" if I'm not mistaken.
That did not happen to me, but I have only played one match so far. At any rate, I am sure they will be cleaning stuff like this up.
My experience so far is that you'd have to be really anal to have any real technical complaints with the game on PS4. I noticed a frame drop here or there during one of the beginning cutscenes, but that's about it. Not much since then.

Weren't the guards at the garrison speaking another language?
Dammit, about to start a new game for the third time because I want to make W2 choices. First, I thought having it on On would let me simulate my choices but while I did that I thought simulate meant the devs would pick, then I picked off but read that means it's the devs choices. Now I got it on On again.

That's not really fair at all. Some people are simply more sensitive to such things and don't want something that has been easily patched in other games negatively affecting an experience they've waited years for.

Apparently if you're on GOG you have to do the following to get your DLC.
What a silly and convoluted way of doing things.

It might be a quirk with the opening bar? Maybe if you pick the Gwent guy before talking to anyone else? It will be some kind of subtle bug like that. (and seems only to be in the PS4 version)
Thanks! I'll pick up a copy!

There's a CE prima guide, hard back cover and a few other things (I think).

Don't sweat it.
Pick one and just go with the flow.
If you play it a second time, pick the other response
Im about to click the check out button, stuttering is not as bad is it? headache inducing bad?

You chose to simulate the Witcher 2 save, despite not having played the Witcher 2, hence the confusion.
The answers likely don't matter to you anyway, since it sure seems like it's mostly going to govern whether some old faces show up.

Be on the road, hold X (or whatever button it is).

If you are on the road, just hold down A (XBox version)

Disabled tutorials and doesn't seem to crash for now
Go to character in the menu and open player stats (R2 if on PS4).
Open your inventory and hit whatever button it tell you for "character stats". It'll give you total play time.

No, not at all. It's just a little distracting and thus immersion breaking for people who are super sensitive to it.

The CE guide is amazing in terms of being a CE (ie beyond regular content which also looks excellent with lots of details on things like abilities)
Not only do you get the art pages at the back of the guide (which has a very awesome feeling hardcover, its not gloss - its kinda "hair works" edition)
But it also has a really cool guide book seperate with a special binding/material/design like its from the witcher world with art and travel guide type infomation and lots text/lore as well as small pics
Book is huge too
Plus $10 off at Best Buy.
Super happy with it. With that bonus book at the back, it may be the best value CE I have bought.

Game is seriously incredible. I love everything about it. The menus, the maps, the animation, the character models, the scenery, the cutscenes, the dialogue, the horse. It's all top notch.
There are a couple of technical issues on PC marring the performance, though, and the game is probably short a patch or two. Like all new games these days.
Hope it all gets sorted soon, I just wanna dive in and savor the game.

I liked it the first time, but it's annoying that you can't skip it. I don't want to see it eveeytine until the end.

Quick question. What difficulty are you guys playing on and is there one that is recommended?

I want to get a new game that'll last me a while, and I can't pick between this and SotFS. Never played a Witcher game before, is there any other series you can compare it to?

So Im at a loss as to how finish "investigating leads in Velen" to find the Bloody Baron's wife. Game gives zero indication or hint of what to do. Already found the daughter. Anyone?

Game is super smooth on my PS4.
Only thing I notice is some slight slowdowns in some cutscenes but in no way detracts from the enjoyment.

I keep thinking about the game when I should be working.
Some thoughts/questions
1) I am enjoying the character controls. I don't know if I would classify it as laggy controls as much as a design choice, like the difference between controls NSMB/DKCR or FIFA/PES. It feels like Geralt has momentum and I can easily over-commit if I am not careful.
2) I don't want to turn on places-of-interest markers because the world map starts looking Ubisofty. But if I don't turn it on, I have constant anxiety that I might miss interesting content.
3) I still have to get to grips with the character screen. Are skills only active if they are placed in a quadrant on the right? Are the four quadrants just quick changes between abilities or are all unlocked quadrants active at any one time?
4) Some of the areas scare me at night. I just meditate till it is light out.

Is it better to buy weapons or craft them? What's the easiest way to raise your blacksmith level? Found a huge chest in the water near the Niilfgardian camp. Made like $590 (there are too many currencies in this game anyway) off that haul. I'm with whatsinaname and refuse to hunt at night. What's the point? Hunting a pack of wolves at night is tough sledding.

Gaf will freak, but the most similar game would be the Dragon Age series. (Similar but different. Dragon Age is more Group/Party orientated, Witcher would have more depth for your Character)

You get 12 active slots for skills, and I guess 4 mutagen slots, and that's it. I recall hearing it'd be fairly simple to swap them out though, so you can prepare for different monsters/situations.

That's cool then. I was thinking it might be four sets of (mutagen + 3xSkills) that you can quickly swap between.
