Hmmm........I sure hope that's not the guy I found in a cage and couldn't for the life of me, despite searching for AGES, find the key...........

Yep, you're in the home stretch.
So the new Skellige DLC armor is level 41 - is somebody in his game even high as level 35 ?

You need to loot more. You're not carrying around anywhere near enough Alcohest and Dwarven Spirit.I don't think I need a storage chest but it's a welcome addition. My inventory was 130 and I only used maybe 40 out of that. Then I won another saddlebag so now I'm at ~40/160. I don't know about anyone else but when I get a new armor set I just sell/dismantle the old one.
That's you not thinking about it. The leader is supposed to hold a key, but there's a glitch where he just doesn't and there's no way to open the cage.I read that complaint numerous times and yet I never actually needed a key to free them - or perhaps I didn't think about it - if I only loot bandits' bodies I can always open the cage, and I freed plenty of captives.
Yeah, I heard it's pretty damn buggy to actually get the guy out of the cage(and sometimes he won't even make it back to the town), but I think you're SOL if you don't have a save before discovering that spot, as the bandit leader you fight holds the key.
Custom sets to switch between with one button press are another QoL feature that should've been in there from the start.I'm at 220 hours first play through and after constantly sitting ducks at 170-180 with all 4 master crafted sets I gave up and installed the 9000 mod.
I really like the idea of mobile inventory rather than having to go at an INN as in the past games, because I'm switching my gear on the go when fighting different types of enemies.
For example - Griffin set with embedded igni and sign runes/glyphs in weapons / armor for maximum effect against necrophages like ghouls / drowners / hags.
Then I switch up to Ursine for witcher contracts or boss enemies with embedded quen and chernobog runes/glyphs .
Afterwards, I will go to a Feline set with stagger / burn / poison + axii / igni runes/glyphs for human enemies etc.
I do all of this on the go. I have clearance potions as well if I need a hard switch in the game style, although I have 2 trees in signs and 2 in combat so my build is hybrid.

It's crazy that they released a game of this scale with nowhere to store your stuff.
I hope it gets implemented.
I'm actually kind of sick of Novigrad now.Up to the quest line about putting on a play to lure Dudu out of hiding. It's kind of ridiculous and I'm longing for the wilderness and exploration again. Been doing contracts here and there to keep things interesting. Way overlevelled (At 17 now) for the main quest lines but underlevelled for a lot of the optional stuff I have left in my quest log atm.
It's still great, just can't wait to get out of this city.
Why? They don't actually want you to switch gear like that, that's why they did not include a button for it and added weight limit to discourage dragging all three or four witcher sets in the inventory.Custom sets to switch between with one button press are another QoL feature that should've been in there from the start.
At least for the three (four, with DLC) Witcher gear sets.
I hope this means more expansions than what they've announced. I'm thinking they've earned quite a few new fans and more downloadable content may be a very wise idea for them, I know I'd buy anything they release. As long as they pack in a few quests, i.e. an excuse to play, I'd even buy horse armor.I didn't see this posted anywhere, but here's an interview with Marcin Iwinski conducted by Daniel Bloodworth. Apart from proving again that he's very friendly guy, Marcin confirmed that the game will be supported for few years, first expansion will be released in October and that people in the studio were wowed by players using aard on hanged bodies in Velen.

surprisingly cool cutscene at the end of the mysterious tower sidequest for something that doesn't involve any major characters. i get the feeling some quest designer just wanted to make a cool little cutscene.
What mysterious tower side-quest do you mean ? That one on the Fyke Island ?
There are many details in the game, like for examplereally nice detailswhen you can help one old women, after helping her you can ask here to take care of some small children without parents, and if she agrees you can come some time after to her house and then you can see that she infact has taken care of those children and they are playing around the house
Geralt would be a poor witcher if he weren't prepared for a multitude of situations, and that includes his gear, just as much as his oils and potions.Why? They don't actually want you to switch gear like that, that's why they did not include a button for it and added weight limit to discourage dragging all three or four witcher sets in the inventory.
You say that as if there's an actual in-game explanation for why a studded leather jacket can raise the amount of gold Geralt finds.Geralt would be a poor witcher if he weren't prepared for a multitude of situations, and that includes his gear, just as much as his oils and potions.
It's just outside the honey farm to the east of Novigrad.That's great. I need to revisit that place if I can find it.

Yes, it goes well with Tawny Owl.
That's nothing, you should see how much water I have.
Oh I'm aware that I can leave. And that's why I mentioned I've been doing other contracts and stuff on the side.Then... leave?
Literally nothing's stopping you. Put the Novigrad questline on hold and venture out to the wilderness of Skellige, plenty of quests to find and things to do, at your level, below and above.
I actually haven't been to Skellige yet, I can't wait to check it out. Been holding off since I just wanna get Novigrad bowled over first. It's just a shame that the quests there are so oddly paced.I had the same experience at the exact same point, it's a minor fault in pacing and bloatiness.
I don't know if you've been there yet but I highly recommend after you finish up Novigrad, you head straight for Skellige. The open wilderness will be incredible for you.
I know that your OCD kinda "prevents" you from going to Skellige now, you want to wrap up everything in Novigrad first before you tackle anything new - it was the exact same for me (I blame years of conditioning to finish up one area before heading to the next in these kinds of RPGs). I'm specifically telling you to not repeat my mistake and just encourage you to go to Skellige next chance you get.Oh I'm aware that I can leave. And that's why I mentioned I've been doing other contracts and stuff on the side.
I'd actually just rather get all the stuff in Novigrad over and done with to be honest. Like ripping a bandaid off quickly.

Yeah if this really is Geralts last game then I hope we get more, I can't imagine playing a witcher game without himI hope this means more expansions than what they've announced.

Lore-wise no, it doesn't make sense, he doesn't drag a whole wardrobe with him on his horse. Witchers do not need different jackets to fight different monsters, because most of the things would kill them in one hit, that's why they dodge and do pirouetts.Geralt would be a poor witcher if he weren't prepared for a multitude of situations, and that includes his gear, just as much as his oils and potions.

I concede that loot is one of the key points where the lore and the game actually contradict each other.Lore-wise no, it doesn't make sense, he doesn't drag a whole wardrobe with him on his horse.

You can change your gear constatntly in the game, but i think the developers would like you to choose one and stick with it.
You may call me crazy, but I finished the game and out of the numerous problems I have in this game, storage is not one of them.
That merchant sells cards, and I'm pretty sure they're ones that you can't get any other waySo does that mean I can never get all the Gwent cards?, or are there enough merchants in the game to mean you can miss a couple and still get them all?
So the new Skellige DLC armor is level 41 - is somebody in his game even high as level 35 ?
I wonder what level the expansion packs will be for though. I finished the game at 35 but I'm planning on going back to it and roaming around (with question marks off and just discovering them naturally...lol hours and hours will be wasted)
But it would really suck if you're over levelled for their expansion missions later this year
5 levels from POIs? They'll give you a quarter of a level at best...I just turned level 36 today, still have all of Skelliges ?'s to get to level 41.
They absolutely have to scale, no other solution makes any sense. The free DLC equipment does scale, so the code exists and they're aware, and we can probably assume that the expansions will too.I wonder what level the expansion packs will be for though.

That Merchant you that you can rescue from captivity near the bridge to Novigrad territory is bugged. When I ask to look at his merchandise it goes right back to the dialogue menu, and not his shop.
Gone back to him a couple of times, and the problem persists.

I haven't been able to even save him from the cage. I can't seem to find the key, and there's no one else around to loot.
Holy shit, that's like.... every side quest.
It seems a bit stupid making it that high really.
