Does deactivating these still make them show up when you read notice boards? I'll sometimes read a notice that marks an undiscovered location on my map, but you can't tell where it is with so many ?'s.

Is there a way to find out how long I've been playing The Witcher 3 on console?

Does his best thinking in the flying car
Right trigger on the inventory screen, maybe others
I just haven't spent a lot of time with it. Hence the question. I'm going to look into it some more today.
100% guesswork of the ending based on previous statements made by the devs:
I thought this was the third and final
CD Projekt RED game with Geralt as a main character, not the Witcher series as a whole
Amazing OP, btw.. and I love the title.
When fighting humans. Side step or block to parry. If its a lot of them dodge roll out of hte way. You can use the force push to knock people and crowd control, same as igni. I tend to hack away at enemies evenly instead of focusing on one. If i focus on one chances are i will get hacked by multiple enemies at once. So just keep on hte look out.
With monsters side step and roll.
The thing that works the most is the protective shield, and if you upgrade it it pushes enemies away and sometimes knocks them off. You can also use the mind control, upgraded it slows enemies and stuns them in place.
Also, learn to use your fast slash and heavy slash. Sometimes you want to go into a heavy slash from a fast slash and always end in a side step or a roll if you are around enemies.
I tend to not lock on enemies, and it doesn't let me engage the closest. Only with big enemies that are solo i lock to keep them always on screen.
Hmm... i think thats it. Use your bow to bring things down, or take away health from enemies as they are moving.
Hope that helps.
They outright stated already that this is the last Geralt game, but not the last Witcher. Be at ease.
I don't think so. I have deactivated the questionmarks and have none. I guess I have find these places by myself from what can read from the papers. But it's fun to ride around the place and randomly see something, instead of following such markings.
1. I'd say use your spells. yrden is good to slow swarms, and ghosts, quen is good if you like to go in, just fight til it's popped, then back out and put it on again, fire is good against drowners.
2. Dodge is good, but working the side-step in works well to. you see a drowner charging, he's gonna luge, side-step, slash him, and dodge out.
3. You sound like you want to just keep hitting people until they die, and you simply can't do that. If you keep hitting, they'll dodge, others will jump you, or they'll parry, stick and move, stick and move!

Sounds like you need to find some better weapons pronto. There are diagrams for the Viper weapons somewhere in the starting area that are fantastic early game. Also, for big groups of enemies like wolves and whatnot you probably want to use bombs to soften them up. Yrden is really only useful against wraiths and spectres, sometimes against big bosses as well. Quen and Igni are the spells you want early on for managing big crowds and not getting stunlocked to hell. Don't ignore alchemy either, it really comes in handy in specific scenarios.
I'm playing on the hardest difficulty and while the game has its bullshit moments (I'm looking at you OP Wraiths) It's not too difficult to abuse certain mechanics.

Amazing OT. And the title made me lol.
Absolutely loving the game so far. I spend a lot of time just exploring the beautiful world and trying to kill stuff that I have no business of being in the presence of at my current level (13). I haven't really gotten into Gwent yet but I really should as so many people seem to love it.
If Mankind Divided and Fallout 4 come out this year we'll be in RPG heaven like in 2011!
The Witcher 2 > The Witcher 3
Xenoblade > Xenoblade Chronicles X
Skyrim > Fallout 4
Human Rev > Mankind Divided
Dark Souls > Bloodborne
And of course, we already had Pillars of Eternity and may get Persona 5! Yay!

hell yes
Finished the game. What a ride. Has it's flaws (loading, combat, etc) but one of the best games I've played. At the end, I had full mastercrafted Ursine (including weapons) and I went with a adrenaline build. I hit like a freaking mac truck. That along with the insta kill talent at the end of the defense tree and I was unstoppable. I took basically 0 dmg from physical attacks. Magic attacks shredded me however.
Just by searching around you should come across them; otherwise break down some other weapons to get the right materials.

i wonder if it takes into account the amount of weight you are carrying or it's just buggy/unbalanced as shit

Buy it from blacksmiths and armorers or have them dismantle equipment into iron ingots. Silver is a bit trickier since you need to buy silver then craft it into silver ingots. Check the dismantle tab at a blacksmith and you probably have something that can be broke into it.
Where can I see my game stats?

Amazing OT for an amazing game! Thumbs up Coreda!

I know Fiends and Werewolves drop them. Not sure if anything else drops them semi-consistently. Fiends are fine to fight, but god I hate fighting werewolves. Regenerating health enemies are almost always BS.

What's the consensus on the
?
I know it's an early game weapon, but I like it. Can I use the silver sword on creatures like ghouls or necrophages and expect similar damage as compared to my steel sword?
Viper Silver Sword

I'm leaning towards the latter. During the (opening spoilers, just in case)
dream sequence when you're racing Ciri down the walls, if you miss one of the ladders which is like a 4-5 foot drop, you lose a good chunk of health.
How do people identify what they can and can't sell? Or which items to dismantle? Add how far to go down the dismantling rabbit hole before stopping? I'm sure the game will let me break the items down to their component molecules if I want to. D:
I seem to have missed the option to buy saddle-bags from the vendor you save (they were there first time I checked but I didn't have the cash, now they're not there) and now I can't find any for sale.

I found these (I actually found the location before the quest, but the box needed the key from the quest), but I don't have the materials to make them. I'm sure my loot is being stolen or something, I could have sworn I had two iron ore. :'(
The potion system in this is such bullshit. Instead of lasting several minutes, like all the other games, let's limit the player to only 3 potions and only have them last 20 seconds. You know how you're gonna be riding across the country side, fighting shit all the time? Better hope you pick the right three 20-second intervals to heal!
Or you could eat food, which heals health marginally and doesn't stack, so you have to eat one piece at a time.
Ugh, who thought this would be a good change? There's no preparing for combat anymore. It's just so much more action gamey.

I am waiting. The content won't be released until October anyway, so might as well wait and see if I can get it at a better price before then.
Got a good laugh out of me. Geralt, Witcher of legends, breaking his legs while racing a kid.
Au contraire. Story is your main boost for exp. Sidemissions give generally relatively little exp, except for contracts.
You do know you can refill your potions while meditating with alcohol?

I got that from XBox 1 - Smartglass. (But you can also get it on the main Achievement screen on the XBox 1)
Oh god I would love for someone to do this. I'm waiting for the purely instrumental version of the song that plays when you're sailing in Skellige. It's like a totally stripped down version of the song "Fields of Ard Skellig". Hopefully soooooon.

I wish they added all these versions to the OST.

Yeah, it's a known issue.

Best game I've ever played!
Pack it up, generation!
CDPR has rocketed past Rockstar as my favorite devs with this game.

oh ok. because people kept saying "press R2 on character screen" when others asked about how to tell your played time; without adding "but that number's bollocks!"
so i guess it's a known issue but not widely known among players.
Not like it really matters, though.
yeah ... no.
In content, maybe. Not in polish.

So how long is just the main story quests? Im playing on "just the story mode" and I just finished the
quest.
Just wondering how long the main quest takes so I can trade it in for ESO by June 9th.
thanks guys!

Thanks for reminding me, I need to do that. I got the game with my GPU and I'm sure they get money for that, but I need to support them as much as possible because the game is so damn good.
I know that feel. Im lugging like 7 relic swords just because they're so pretty.
I finished the game in about 48 hours give or take.

Man, this post makes me so sad.
I sadly get some random frezzes sometimes. Keeps my quicksaving finger quick tho.
