Gorgon Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Yeah but he loves em and leaves em, I closed the deal with four I think, and ended up with Triss. Yennifer has all the charm of a Sith Lord. Just kindof scumbaggy and selfish really. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
HoonDing Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Getting sick of Ciri sections. I like her, but it feels almost like playing an anime character. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Gorgon Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Well if you are going to have two or three dialouge options that are radically different it's just hard to avoid having the character seem a bit unstable. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

Unless Geralt's a glutton for punishment, I don't know how anyone can choose Yennefer over Triss.

GhostofAnakin Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Wasn't Ciri described as plain looking or average/nothing special in the novels? Apart from that scar, she's one of the better looking females in the game.

HoonDing Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Book-Triss betrayed Yennefer and Ciri to the Lodge and is just one of many sorceress ****buddies of Geralt. He also sampled Fringilla Vigo and Coral. Game-Triss lied to Geralt about Yennefer and made use of his amnesia to get close to him. Then gets butthurt if you pick Shani anyway. And in second game it's revealed she was scheming with the rest of the Lodge but didn't even realize she was considered completely disposable. Yennefer's actions in W3 are extreme, but all to find her adopted daughter. Edited June 3, 2015 by HoonDing The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Nonek Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 It's been a while since I last read the books, I only really remember Ciri being described as having enchanting eyes, she may well have grown up since then however. Geralt and Yen remark on such in Vizima. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine.

Orogun01 Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 **** Gwent and **** any stupid game where the NPC gets a handicap. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

(Flipping around for this kind of thing is a weakness of ebooks) In game I thought she never told him about Yennefer - though that'd be an odd conversation to an amnesiac. Yen's ok in W3, but they play up the snarkiness a bit too much, she does boss Geralt around in the books but not to the abusive degree she does in quests here. You do get to tell her off a lot in Kaer Morhen as she is pretty much irritating everyone there. Huh, apparently there's a NG+ playthrough, or at least they left fragments of one in the game Edited June 4, 2015 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

HoonDing Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I did everything Gwent related in the game but still the collect quest isn't closed. At least I have all leader cards, all hero cards and all cards you can buy and win from people. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
GhostofAnakin Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 **** Gwent and **** any stupid game where the NPC gets a handicap. What handicap is that? The only games of gwent I lost were when I had really crappy cards. As soon as I started finding/buying/winning some hero cards, as well as special cards, I was unstoppable.

teknoman2 Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 i had to play a guy 3 times to win... he had monster cards and each card he played added at least 2 more cards from his deck on the field. but since almost all cards were melee, when i got myself a draw of 2 frost and mostly ranged cards, he had no chance anymore... and im mostly with my starter deck The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand.

Nonek Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I quite like their take on Yen, imperious and arrogant as always, I always think of her as a fantasy equivalent of the Stainless Steel Rat's wife. Though i'm interested in finding out how she shed the Hunt's amnesia, and what exactly she went through in Nilfgaard. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it?

Malcador Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I want to retire to Skellige. Kind of a let down after Velen and Novigrad, quest line there is pretty short and the sidequests aren't all that grand for the most part. Is a fairly scenic region though. Poor Vesemir, rare time I was disappointed to see an NPC die. 1 Why has elegance found so little following?

Nonek Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Yep Velen and Novigrad are far more interesting gameplay wise, but those mountains, forests and moody skies...enchanting.

The only games of gwent I lost were when I had really crappy cards. As soon as I started finding/buying/winning some hero cards, as well as special cards, I was unstoppable. NPCs have already a good deck but I'm still trying to find how to build one, I buy a whole bunch of cards but merchants don't seem to carry more than 5 and from different decks.

So at this point of the game I'm still playing with the damn temerians because I haven't been able to build a proper deck. I stuck with the Temerian set because they seemed to be more plentiful. I'm done the game, and still don't have complete sets of the other factions. Best way to build a strong deck is to play against those players who will play for special cards (it's given as a quest), starting with the Baron in Velen and he'll have a list of other players who also will play for special cards. That's how I got started with finding strong enough cards to compete with the better players.

Nordicus Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 It's pay2win.Shame that Vivaldi can't convert euros to crowns. The feature's bugged out for me!

Nordicus Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I have 9,000 crowns and still 4,000 unused florens. Nothing useful to buy anyway. I disagree, but I would welcome some additional late game money sinks. All Superior grade bombs, oils and potions require 1-3 bottles of White Gull, which is made using the very rare Madrake Cordial, Cherry Cordial and Redanian Herbal liquors. You can buy these from some merchants, but in the end, making White Gull costs you roughly 350 crowns per bottle. I'd say that getting a version of Swallow that's not only longer lasting and more potent than the lesser versions, but also throws out the rule "getting damaged stops the regen for 2 seconds", is pretty useful
Gorgon Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Alchemy didn't seem worth it. Don't want to commit all my skill points to being able to chose between 100 tiny buffs which will then be even harder to identify and chose because of the ****ty inventory. I stopped making new potions and concoctions after about 10 I think, didn't want any more clutter. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
