While the Siege Master power is decent, it's not as versatile as the Clear Weather power. Here's my reasoning: 1) Only affects one row: obviously for this power to be useful, you'll need to have sufficient strength in your siege row to make it work. This can occasionally be tricky, even with the...

Northern Realms is the most OP deck of the lot, and currently by far the best with the right setup. Leader: clear weather - the most versatile by far because it firstly means that you're not reliant on pulling your own weather cards, and that you don't need to keep any clear weather cards in...

Speak for yourself. The game works very well for me. No fatal crashes after the first patch, no game-ending glitches that weren't solved by reloading, restarting the game, or patches again. Game otherwise meets my expectations. Plays great, looks great. Of course there is room for improvement...

Gwent is an amazingly well developed minigame, it's very addictive and plenty of fun. A great time-sink that I enjoy playing for the sake of playing, not using it as a means of getting XP or gold, which is what usually happens with other mini-games (which is why I avoid fist-fighting and horse...

The problem with the War Table in DA:I is that ultimately it feels really shallow. Sure, it's fun initially and allows for some interesting lore and character stuff to be played out, but eventually it starts to feel like a let-down, because you never see anything happen. All you get is a brief...

I don't think that Witchers and Grey Wardens are alike at all. If anything, they're really different. The only 'abilities' that a Grey Warden gets is the ability to sense Darkspawn and subsequently the eventual corruption by the taint. That's nothing like a Witcher, who ends up with enhanced...

I can quickly see this thread degenerating into petty squabbles, but given these two games have eaten up a lot of my gaming time recently, I feel I'll put in my two cents worth: Dragon Age: Inquisition Pros: --- Party banter and interaction. Always one of the strongest elements of the DA...

If you have no special cards at all in your deck then you've probably not gathered enough playing/buying from merchants in Velen. With zero special cards, you're going to find it tough to beat monster decks. But you only need a few in order to do well. The first critical thing to remember about...

I think Triss' face is actually a big improvement on W2. Somehow it makes her look a bit sweeter, her new face seems a bit...softer. Roche... well, the quality of his face is much higher, but I agree that somehow he doesn't quite look like he did in W2. I'm not sure if it's because in W2 he had...

There are several great and cringeworthy lines in the game. The personal high-point so far was the drinking session with fellow Witchers. Hilariously good fun, and you got a sense that Geralt was really close with his buddies, despite the fact they rarely see each other and snipe at each other...

The Nilf armour certainly looks quite snazzy. Is it a medium or a light armour set?

I can't figure out how to take screenshots... :S That said, new record for me: 195 in the final round based mostly on x3 blue stripes commandos, x2 catapults x2 siege engineers and a horn. As stated above, the key to getting huge scores are having good bond pairings set up in your hand, plus...

No, you won't really miss out on anything. As a general rule I also don't loot from occupied houses unless I end up killing all of the occupants, or they're already dead. In the vast majority of cases you won't miss out on anything significant, as the best loot is not in houses, but out in the...

Drat, no screenshots...but my highest I believe was 144 (x2 catapult + horn + 2 seige enginners, x2 Dragon Hunter x3 Blue Stripes Commando, with Dandelion for Horn as the backbone. Basically, went into that round able to play all my bond pairings in a single go.). If you can get into the final...

What I recall is that the 80 monsters was including all the re-skins of the base types of monsters (I'll also add that I'm pretty sure that 'monster' tag includes wolves and wild dogs too). Even then, I don't feel that this was in any way 'misrepresenting' or lying about the amount of monsters...

The 'Medic' type cards do exactly as they say - you get to select one card from your discard pile. The caveats are that the card cannot be a Hero card (these are completely unaffected by any special powers, cards or abilities, such as commander's horn, weather cards, or decoy/medic), a special...

Yup, as a general rule, if your version of the game appears to be extremely buggy, then it is recommended to try re-installing it. If that doesn't help, you might also want to try re-downloading the game instal files, as sometimes something goes amiss in those two processes. If those steps don't...

I released it, although as others have noted, the main motivation was probably to antagonise the Crones. More than anything I did not trust them, and did not want to do anything to potentially strengthen their hold over the swamp. I felt that letting the tree spirit go, knowing it would save...

I'm not sure why you think that lock-on is required on PC, or that it's bugged? PC controls work absolutely fine, no lock-on required - it's completely fluid, you can change who Geralt focuses on just by adjusting your positioning, or by aiming your mouse in the direction of the guy you want to...

It summons them from both your hand and your deck. This is what makes it both powerful, but weak. It's powerful in the sense that if your deck is well constructed, it's an extremely powerful tool for overwhelming your enemy. It's weak however because it's a one-use only. Once all of those cards...
