So i've been playing the game as a goodie. I always love helping people out, if someone gives me the option to let them keep the money.. sometimes, i usually let them keep it in case they can use it to help their kids or family.
So i usually get very involed in the tasks and help as much.
I guess the game had to remind me after a quest, by showing me a short clip of witchers... how they just don't get involved, take the money, and leave.
Soooooo... is this like DMC unlocking easy mode after you die a bunch of times? haha I guess the game is telling me i am playing the game wrong.

Got the Emerald Dust and made my sword set finally. One side quest left to go in White Orchard and then it's just all Main Story and POI discovering. Mission givers really know how to make you feel like an ass. I did the
and ended up not taking the reward because of the story about where it came from.
Devil By The Well
Well, look into your inventory you hopefully got some books. A bit reading could help you decide.
It's "She Who Knows"
Nah, you can do that. But it is the main way to make money, at least early on. You also won't get anything for taking the altruistic route, just self-satisfaction.

Whatever you choose it will end poorly for someone, so go with your gut.
I think people are vastly overestimating the value and veracity of this book.
Ciri's version differs a lot
Same for me - just hit level 13, and got plans to make level 42 weapons... o0
IIRC the original post in this conversation was only about the
'go back to get the Crones with the Baron'

which ones? haven't come across one yet.
Go with your gut and just deal with the consequences. I did.
So conflicted. On the one hand I want to thank you for taking the time to answer my question, on the other, you sound like asshole.
It leads to a lot of bad results, but I find myself taking the choices that lead to being able to see what's going on. Like with the whispering hillock quest, I decided to perform the ritual because I just wanted to see what happened. Had I ended it right there I wouldn't be able to see what it became. The result was interesting, to say the least, but at least I got to see it!
Anywho, I turned off POIs the other day and I've found the game to be immensely more enjoyable.

If anyone has done the quests involving the Baron and the three
, then read this book I found in the game.
I love this stuff!
witches
I love this stuff!
I just randomly found this in a house and it explains who the forest spirit was under the oak tree, who I ended up releasing. Nice bit of back story. It makes me feel even worse that I released her. Although, seeing the orphans again at the school was great.

I feel like when your choice is between
a mysterious creature trapped in a weirdly-pulsating tree, and three obviously creepy-as-fuck witches, it's hard to feel good about either choice. That said, I freed him because I figured I could deal with him later if need be, and I kinda wanted to piss off the crones.
That is one of 3 possible drops of ekimmra hides. I didn't get one from killing my first ekimmara, yet you need at least 3 hides to make various potions, such b.s. If I had known ekimmaras were so limited, I would have reloaded my save game until a hide dropped.
Other location is in Novigrad with the Following the Thread quest. Final one is the level 22 Witcher contract at the Byways
My Ending, dont click if you havent finished the main quest:
Now I'm going back on the path. Too many hunts I put off.
I'm not sure how she did it, but Ciri stopped the White Frost. She is believed dead by the Emperor and became a Witcher.
Radovid is dead, and Redania was overrun by the Empire. Temeria on the other hand is self-governing, while still ultimately a vassal of the Empire.
Geralt is also still on the path, doing what a Witcher does best. Hunting.
Yen decided to stay in the north and there was no mention of Triss at all. I feel like I missed something there. I romanced them both and had the "threesome" scene but nothing else happened after that. I thought I would have to choose between them but it never came up. Did I miss a conversation/quest or something?
I think I got the "best" ending considering, and overall the ending was satisfying. This is how you finish a trilogy. Well done, CDPR.

I was referencing the latter part where you can
go back to the swamp to find his wife and meet the 3 Crones
Welp, reading that I think I made the better choice in my eyes.
Killed it and saved more people that way.
Good tips.
What?
Is the storyline not finished? Wow, amazing. I would say I can't wait to find out, but I will, since there are so many other quests still to work on >_<
Yes. But you also can block people with your butt butt
You are in for a treat when you do. There is such a totally different (and amazing) vibe to Skellige. It adds to being in a 'world' that much more. The sense of place in this game is incredible.
aaaaand now the framerate has dropped to about 10fps
I just thought it was very interesting that the game had to play a short cut scene of what a witcher is. haha

i am totally installing the new dismemberment mod. Give me some death.
Applesauce
Boom! Bitch-slapped!
I've abstained from watching any videos of this game for location spoilers, I have no idea what Skillege looks like, can't wait to get there.
Decision doesn't affect much with triss in w2 or w3 really. Choosing Saskia is a more interesting path in w2 and I recommend it, triss won't hold a grudge because you chose to prioritize stopping the evil plot over saving her. i don't think any w2 decision has any sway on your relationship decisions in W3 if that is your concern
Haha will try that technique.

Holy shit, I picked up that book but never read it.
I freed it, too, but I'm certain it's going to come back in on another side quest or something. It was just too unique.
Also where are the
orphans?
Hilariously, I did another quest nearby not long after I finished that one, and in the background the black
horse
Happens to the best of us!
(And some people did seem to be referring to more of the Baron's quest as side content
)That is interesting, I didn't realize it would do that. It does it after the Baron quest too to tell you that things would have turned out differently based on your choices, to remind people that choices matter.

Yep, there's a bit more, though it's not really in any way connected to the choice you make, just a bit of extra lore.
They are in a
school
Also don't believe everything you read in a book you found in a swamp.

Ah that's great, thanks for the information.
It's my first time playing through W2 to prepare for W3, lol.No, you just dun goofed.

It's great, especially when you can string two or three executions/dismemberments together.
So i know people complain about the combat. But the more i play, the more satisfied i am with it. Last night i took on 2 wyverns and then 1 royal wyvern. It was an epic fight. Then a giant basilisk came and annihilated me. haha
The game feels very natural tho. Like i do feel i am part of the narrative, and also like i am having adventures as a witcher. I dunn think many games have achieved that imo. Specially on a big open world style game.
Loving every second of it.
Dunno where to check my time played on ps4.

60 hours played and I just realized there were two other currencies that have to be converted to be usable. Got over three grand in an instant. And I purged myself of all the books I was carrying. The usable items inventory was just unmanageable with all of them in there.

Holy shit I just realised you can quickly switch signs without the need of bringing up the menu by holding l2 and left-right on the dpad. This is a life saver for me.
