    Death March, regen food and meditation.

    only on the internet do people resort to such extremes, black/white, must be zero or totally all - re-read or just take a deep breath. My reply a) specifically said "get your point" and merely added the caution that playing immersion card, like realism card, has it's downsides. b) your EXACT...

    New auto-update on steam today but don't know what for?

    New auto-update on steam today but don't know what for? Saw on my steam launcher today that my Witcher 3 auto-downloaded and applied a 106 mb update this morning (california time). But launching my game still shows v 1.06 and no idea what this new/update is or why? For sure it wasn't because...

    Miscellaneous questions

    Vanilla game, no. Havent seen current mod either so probably need redkit2 when thats released to get mod to disable screen effects. also, from what i can tell - it doesnt take that much to activate the green border. I went alch build and even with max toxicity of 240, I would still get the...

    Witcher 3 voices accents

    Not that a fantasy game has to be accurate when borrowing from real life historical periods to build that game world, but this seems pretty accurate of the mid to late middle ages of the medieval period, in parts of scotland and ireland where the norse-gaels lived and had heavy influences of...

    Any tips for headshot kills w/ crossbow achievement?

    Any tips for headshot kills w/ crossbow achievement? It's been really slow going for me, doable but really slow due to aim. Any specific tips for build + gear + method? So far, I've kind of come to conclusion that the lower level precision bolts is best, rather than the higher level exploding...

    Gold cap bug/design?!

    FWIW on my PC version with a mod - which I can't see how it would affect gold cap but disclosing it because who knows - I was able to get to 90k, and now am bit over 100k without gold reset. Not saying this isn't happening to people - just wondering if this is a platform issue or some other...

    Anyone else have 1+ screen full of non-removal quest items?

    Anyone else have 1+ screen full of non-removal quest items? It's like 0.1% actual impact to game play, but it does bother my neat and tidy syndrome to see my quest tab keep filling up with items that doesn't get removed after completing quests. In act 2, level 26 with my furthest play through...

    Annoying game mechanics / design choices

    How did you play 80+ hours as you claimed without knowing Wolves = STEEL sword and Leshen = SILVER sword? read your bestiary - Beasts are not classified as monsters for silver swords. Wolves, dogs, bears, etc uses steel sword. in Leshen fight you have wolves (steel) plus Leshen (silver) your...

    Annoying game mechanics / design choices

    I've readily said there are workarounds - but being able to work around something doesn't invalidate it can be annoying. Not sure why you're invested in defending what would easily be a win-win to all parties - a simple option to disable / enable auto-draw (and again, not talking about...

    Thoughts on weight limit - am enjoying 120 lb base

    Thoughts on weight limit - am enjoying 120 lb base By default, Geralt starts with 60 lb base as his weight limit, and can increase to 160 via the +100 saddlebag. I wanted bit more, but still feel like I have to make choices in what I carry, and needing to resupply / sell in towns, etc. So I...

    Are all food and drinks give the same health regeneration?

    I would expect after redkit is released there will be food mods that convert raw meat into roast chicken or roast pork, say by casting igni or something like that. i sell all the lower grade stuff and just buy goat milk in bulk from the pasiflora, and roast chicken / roast pork from skellige...

    Are all food and drinks give the same health regeneration?

    The former. Toffi will heal you for grand total of 1600 hp, over a period of 10 seconds - or 160 hps (heal per second) if you time this with stopwatch, you will get technically the (food HPS) + (Geralt natural regen HPS) no idea for lower difficulty but on Blood&Bones and Deathmarch, Geralt...

    Big problem with losing coins

    I wrote another thread asking this same question, but that I thought it had gotten resolved - because while I've read old posts saying gold would reach a cap at the hex value of 65.5k, and then reset or spill over once you close your game session to whatever is the excess remaining over the cap...

    Annoying game mechanics / design choices

    When you put words never said into someone else's mouth, it's easy to reply with invented material. 1- I never said anything remotely to what you claimed as "cant stand his two swords, but you hate the character with only 1 sword" - you'll have to quote my words and explain how you came to...

    Help - How much should I explore without ruining later quests?

    I will avoid spoilers and just tell you the 3 general rules to follow that will preclude any bad / negative consequence to exploring every nook and cranny of the world you like, as early as you like. 1 - sell whatever the heck you want, but never sell any monster part: -All that will affect you...

    BUG : Cant do various action in shallow water !

    If you had sent a pm and said this, then I would have responded via pm. It's rather convenient to respond publicly, while at same time saying any public response by me must be by pm. Lead by example my friend, do as I say and not as I do never works well. You are again selectively parsing the...

    Making $ is way too easy

    There are so many controls given the player to 'balance' their own world economy, why would you want the devs to implement a one sized fits all solution that may not fit many people's play style? In a single player game? Without touching the extremes, and I would agree it's a pretty lame...

    BUG : Cant do various action in shallow water !

    Do you understand what a title is? It's an indicator of the main subject or topic within the text, not the only topic. You are insisting every topic the OP raised must be exactly in line with his title. Read a book with more than one chapter - explain why chapter 2 does not necessarily have to...

    Death March, regen food and meditation.

    Using immersion as a reason is shaky grounds to walk on. Get your point because eating in middle of combat seems far fetched, but if you play the immersion card then you walk into the landmines of almost all the game being far fetched - carrying 22 swords and 8 suits of armor in some secret...
