That will be fixed in patch 1.04, hopefully it comes soon as I'm pretty much waiting on it to continue playing.
I think whirl you need to hold down light attack.
Hold the light attack button.

Agreed, this part is really pissing me off and sorta holding me back from all those menus. I'm only a couple of hours in so far but it's a hindrance.

With a tower that looks like that, of course there's a quest there

I'm doing a quest with
in Novigrad. I'm in this shop with a trap-door in the floor that cannot be opened. Is this a known bug ?
edit: well shit. The damn thing opened on its own when Geralt stepped on it and he fell through. lol.
Triss

Yeah been known for a while. I did that mission yesterday and worked fine for me.
I was under the impression latest patch fixed it hmm...

Try moving around. A few times I couldn't open a trapdoor because the cursor was focusing on the ladder underneath and trying to 'use' that instead of 'open'ing the door.
EDIT: Too slow
I still can't decide between 'em so I'm avoiding Triss' side quests and the main quest for now.
It means nothing but I don't wanna make a "bad" choice. I already made a choice in Yelen that I thought was "good" but it ended up being horrible.

Haha I think I made the same horrible choice. The consequences are real in witcher world. Caught me off guard.

Another question about the romance options
do I have a chance to talk to either Triss or Yennefer before the Battle at Kaer Mohren, I see everyone else but I can't find them.
Almost can't believe I spent my entire night after work, aside from some GoT time and a quick dinner, not only just playing this game, but just exploring one small area of it. All I did in about 4 hour of play was Lord of Undvik and exploring Undvik itself and the smaller islands surrounding it. While I agree that the detective gameplay is a little on the passive side, I still enjoy the long detective missions like this one.
What happened to the lunatic living inside the ship on Undvik, though?

He told me to come back for him and bring nails and cloth and later on there would be nails highlighted with quest item bubbles that I now have 69 of, but that never triggered a quest and the guy is gone now...
Thanks, but is it a quest that starts when you go there or a quest you find elsewhere?With a tower that looks like that, of course there's a quest there
That the one you do for that dwarf at Crows Perch? I'll have to go check that quest out. Sounds fun.
I'm sure most folks made the choice.
Talking, of course, of the Bloody Baron questline. Been quite awhile and I'm not quite over it yet. lol

So I got my collector's edition today. I don't know if other impressions have been posted (I'm guessing so), but there's nothing in the OP so others might be interested.
My first impression was that EBGames packed the hell out of the box. My second impression was that maybe CDPR went a little overboard.
Of course, it comes with Geralt fighting a griffin, so I don't know what I expected.
Not a bad collection really. Copy of the game & extras. A steelbook with Quen marks on the spine. An artbook like the previous game. And a surprisingly decent quality wolf's head medallion.
It's a great trilogy to have picked up special editions for. I have to say the griffin fight is a lot better than Witcher 2's Geralt bust. It had some neat papercraft things, although unfortunately they don't really last. The artbooks are usually the real treasure. I'm pretty sure each game came with a good quality map. The Witcher 1 had a copy of the short story "The Witcher" and 2 had a few little knickknacks.
Not pictured: Dice bag and two coins that are in a drawer and I forgot about. Still cool though. There's a few more shots in the album but not much more. I don't know when it's appropriate to wear a medallion but I'll have to find some excuse.
And now back to the game. Which is awesome.

I'm playing on PS4 and has my first crash to desktop/XMB/whatever the hell they call it now last night as well. I haven't had one of those since the early days of Battlefield 4 I don't think. Thankfully the game had autosaved almost at the exact moment it crashed, so I didn't lose a single second of progress.
It was such a weird place that I can't imagine autosave should have kicked in for any reason, so I don't think it was a regular autosave that caused a crash. It's almost like the game recognized something that would cause a crash imminently and saved. Bizarre, but welcome.
I did get a bit burned out on the game but now, 90 hours in, I've started delving into the Gwent. Managed to win with inkeeper in Oxenfurt and Zoltan ! That's quite a high hurdle for me. Scorch cards are such a pain to deal with and AI is usually good enough to hold to them till the last moment.
lol at the "If I catch you exhorting coin again, I will send you straight to the front. Eastern Front." line.

144 hours in and I've finally finished the main quest. The new bar for open world RPGs has been set. TW3 has entered my top 3 favorite games of all time.
I still have a couple of sidequests left and I was thinking about starting a Death March run after I finish those up, but I think I might wait and see if New game+ is really going to be a thing.(pls CDPR)

hahah,
only CDPR would make something that takes 90 freaking hours to get burned out

Thanks! I tried but I guess I didn't press it long enough. I absolutely destroys everything...
Parry then 2 strong attacks, rinse and repeat. Even easier when you get the opponent back against the wall/crowd.
Hold block at nearly all times, unless you're going for a counter.
I dunno what to DO MAN.
Yen is the story girl. So I didn't
But goddammit, Triss is my girl, has been for two games! But.....I don't know Yen. Geralt might, but I don't. Should I get to know her? I don't know what to do! WHY! I've never had a game's decision bother me this much.
Yen is the story girl. So I didn't
kiss Triss in the garden.
No, Lord of Undvik is a separate quest but they both take place on the little island of Undvik. They're tied together in placement and pathing but not in story, so you will likely stumble over one or the other. (Do Lord of Undvik as your primary quest, since that's the quest the area was clearly made for and the armorer's tools are just a bonus.)

Playing on death march difficulty.
Deaths from enemies: 20%
Deaths from fall damage: 80%

I had "oh...wow" moment a few days ago.
Saw this lighthouse in the distance and thought it'd be simply a thingy outside of the map to show that the world is bigger than what we get to explore.
But then I actually found it by accident. So I guess in this case you can actually go there, if you can see it. Bonkers.

Yeah but in Death March you die a lot
Nope, only at the start of the game. Later on, it gets too easy.

Messed around with some console commands and got myself a level appropriate set of Kaer Morhen armor, it's slightly worse than my other armors but damn does it look nice, thinking about doing the same with the Temerian and Nilfgaard armor as well.

you can try but.... i guess you'll find out pretty quickly if love is that fickle when you get to "that" moment.
i had to go for the
kiss.
Yennefer has changed. She's about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity.
RespectThySole

Yep. You have to kiss her in order to romance Triss. Kissing her doesn't mess things up if you choose Yen either so there's no downside to it really. You might as well reload to a save before or during that quest if you still want to go that route.
She's
lost in Plot Limbo and will reappear when a cutscene needs her again.

Near end-game spoilers, character death,

I think Puppet is really great. Especially if you have trouble with or want some crowd management.
Gohan hit Super Poland Jin 2 though, so it's all good.
Why is it so hard for some people to just fucking choose a path and stick with it till the end? And choose a different path the next playthrough?
Am I the only getting annoyed by this shit?
Because some of us don't wanna spend the time to do another 50+ hour playthrough.

break her free, kill ALL the hunters, leave Novigrad

Because "next playthrough" is a commitment of another ~100 hours, and while they're still playing it, most people probably expect these romance subplots to affect their game in a meaningful way.
