How about this weather?192 is a good gwent score, try getting 300+ then we'll talk
I wish I could say it was skill, but it's just about having a good deck and then drawing the right cards at the right times.

Oh yeah if you get lucky and have 4 spy cards + 2 commander's horn + 2 decoys in the deck, you can score a ton on points..
Guess we can talk.You can get HoS trophies that are not quest related in the main game - gwent and the arrow deflection one.

Hah, very nice.
Just wish they release a gwent mini-game for mobile phones or vita, i'd play that all the time.

Not sure if many still visit the thread but I wanted to share a couple of spoiler free videos I uploaded recently. Had a long long break from the game while I was waiting for patches and now I'm having a blast jumping back in. Performance on PS4 is great now!
I still notice new things all the time. Whether it be something an NPC says or something new in combat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUvp2OcRJXI Pay close attention to the guy that killed my puppet mind control lmao.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEy1uCl9Ltw Not even sure how I did this kick. I assume its a counter attack (which can sometimes be tricky to pull off) but damn did it ever feel badass at the time.

So I started playing the Witcher 3 near to launch but traded it in as I wasn't enjoying it. With all the praise I feel like I need to start again and push forward with it - especially considering it was partially the fact that all content seemed to be way too high a level to do that put me off.
My question is however, with the price still being very high, should I just wait until the inevitable complete edition? I have 12 weeks off in the summer so it wouldn't be bad to have a giant rpg.

I am somewhere in the middle of act 2 and I kinda stopped playing. I did the side-story quest chains (novigrad, skellige etc...) but at some point I just stopped caring about Ciri and the wild hunt. Does the main quest line get interesting further on? My next mission is
to find 3 dwarves in the mist. Meh.

Oh, so this is from the alternate outcome.
Also was it a patch, Hearts of Stone, or just me, as I can't unequip or consume anything already equipped via the Inventory screen during combat. Dragging and dropping doesn't work, and neither does pressing 'E' to consume or Space to unequip.

I'm about 30 hours into my second playthrough.
-
Released the evil spirit in the tree meaning that the Bloody Baron committed suicide. Damn, I felt so bad and kinda wished I had just destroyed the spirit.
-
Let Sarah stay in the "haunted" house. Now she's hanging out with Corinne Tilly. Poor Johnny.
-
Going for Yennefer this time around. I like Triss but having now read the books and played previous games I just feel like Yennefer is the only one for Geralt. Haven't had sex with anyone else but I don't know if I can resist Shani.
-
Ciri is definitely gonna be a Witcher again. I don't like the thought of her dying or becoming empress.
-
Radovid will die.
-
I told Keira to go to Kaer Morhen. I killed her initially and I definitely don't want her impaled.
-
I met Letho again and helped him out then told him to go to Kaer Morhen.
theres a third option for Keira. You can let her go to oxenfurt to meet up with radovid because she's expecting him to forgive her.
He impales her on a stake in the middle of the city. It creates a quest where you and triss retrieve her body to give her a proper burial

So your second play through is exactly my first play through.
Finally got around to playing through Hearts of Stone and it's so good.
Really looking forward to Blood and Wine now.
All the quests were great, but I especially loved Scenes from a marriage. The whole horror vibe, and both the Caretaker and Nightmare Olgierd were really cool moments.

At the second to last quest and I gotta say all the hype around this game was warranted. Fantastic game even though theres a ton I really disliked. Definitely wouldve ranked it higher on my GOTY had I beat it in time but cant feel too bad since it pretty much dominated everywhere.
I dont want this to end ;_;
Ah gotcha. I'll have to do a lot of reading on the Witcher wiki after I'm done.

You were partially right too.
Before the Conjunction, the Elves of the Wild Hunt were able to move freely between worlds. They need a Source to let them do it again.
What did you miss the first time?
There's 2 contract trophies. Specifically, The Byways mystery one, I somehow chose dialogue that completed the contract but didn't get to the real root of the cause which was
a vampire.
Also, on my first play trough I
killed Keira

Started my New Game+ on Death March yesterday. Death March is the last trophy I need. My Geralt's level 36 so hopefully it shouldn't be too bad. I was surprised my armor and weapons carried over. Pleased CDPR decided to allow that.
Yeah but keep in mind your armor is level 34. You'll still need to upgrade your gear as it will be underpowered since they scale everything up 30 levels.

Beat the game. Loved it.
Things I didnt love:
- Combat
- Horse controls. This made the last quest extremely frustrating.
Regarding the ending, I skipped the quest where Roche and the fat dude

conspire to kill Radovid. Do you actually kill him during that quest and alter the witch hunts?
Eilhart kills him. Afterwards you find out that Dijkstra is gonna screw Roche over, so you decide what to do: aid Roche and kill Dijkstra, or keep neutral and let Dijkstra kill Roche.
It has no direct influence on the story though. Even after his death everyone is still all 'Hail Radovid'. Bit disapointing.

You kill him and and then Djikstra double crosses you, Roche and Thaler and you kill him. You also missed a trophy for not doing this if that matters to you.
Redania also falls (much easier) to Nilfgaard. They fall anyway but I guess without a king they crumbled faster.

If you side with Djikstra the North wins, but he's a bit of a dictator.
Ah I didn't realize there was a choice. Was getting tired of his shit at that point anyway.
you could just load a save and finish the game on death march (can change difficulty at any time)

Have to finish a few pickup trophies then off to Deathmarch! I am stupid for not picking that option at the beginning.

I don't think that would get him the trophy he's after though.

You'll need the full horse set - saddle, blinders and saddle bags. You can buy them both from the merchant.
Nope, you have to do a full playthrough on DM from the beginning without ever changing the difficult.
Looks like it was cut...
Just went back and watched the E3 trailer. Lots of changes, but got dam that is an incredibly sexy trailer.
I just fucking love this game...I honestly can't get enough, and I haven't even started HoS yet.
Thank you, guess I'm all set with these quests.
I'm not 100% certain that is a complete list.
Thank you!

As others have said, pretty sure you have to complete the entire game on DM.
Beat the griffin relatively easy last night though he killed me a few times. Two hits and I was dead. Enjoying the challenge though. My dodging game was pretty good when I finished my first playthrough, though that was months ago.

Hi, I'm nortonff. I spend my life going into threads to say that I don't care about the topic of the thread. It's a really good use of my time.
Gaf, I'm kinda lost at the Isle of Mists and Brothers in Arms quest.
Am I supposed to do the Brothers in Arms first to gather people before I go to Isle Of Mists?
Because some brothers in arms quests are not tracking in the minimap so I dont know what to do first lol.

I stand corrected. I was told otherwise but now I know
I swear I read from at least 5 different sources you could switch it later in the game and get it. That was around the first month the game came out, at that point not very many beat it to actually know.Do all BiA missions first.
Level up as much as you can before attempting the botchling/lubberkin. Those wraiths are straight up assholes.
After that, I didn't find DM to be too troubling (other than Imerlith)
