    Detllaff fight...

    Yeah, but Ekhidna gets you back to full health so fast, that it's almost cheating. And Dettlaff winds up the bat attack so long that it's really not that hard to dodge in the first place. With alchemy build you could probably even have double decoctions, like Ekhidna and Troll at the same time...

    Detllaff fight...

    I won on the second try, and I consider myself a fairly mediocre player. Just remember to use the Ekhidna Decoction and keep your Quen up, and the fight isn't all that challenging on the second hardest difficulty.

    13th DLC - "Where The Cat And Wolf Play"

    Touissant is surrounded by mountains. It can contain any and all kinds of monsters that the devs want to put in; it's canonically infested with all imaginable kinds of beasts, judging from Lady of the Lake.

    CDPR still hiring devs specifically for "The Witcher" - More DLC after season pass?

    They've announced two big expansions a good while ago, and a good chunk of their main staff has gone into developing Cyberpunk. Do the math.

    Why couldn't mages just teleport out of Novigrad?

    Geralt notes early in the game that the Wild Hunt's teleportation is different from normal mages and that they are capable of feats beyond human ability. Also, World of the Witcher-book notes that it is possible for a talented mage to develop immunity towards dimeritium with enough time and...

    Eredin says 12 sentences during the whole game and.....

    Eredin would've needed more time on screen to develop as a character. While he really can't be a terribly nuanced or sympathetic villain, he could still be a more complex character and his motivations could be clearer. But for that he would need some more screentime. Since he can manifest as a...

    The Wild Hunt flying capabilites? [Spoiler]

    When they ride across the sky in their spectral cavalcade they do it as wraiths, projecting their spirits across the worlds. Now they are present in the flesh, having come through on Naglfar, in order to track Ciri down. When they are physically present, they are bound by the same physics as any...

    Eredin says 12 sentences during the whole game and.....

    I'm sure that you would, but a lot of people would be justifiably angry if you had to pay extra to get a complete experience of the main story. It would be like if EA had charged money for the ending fix for Mass Effect 3. That sort of thing is what is alienating customers from the developers...

    Eredin says 12 sentences during the whole game and.....

    I can't see the expansion packs doing much to the Wild Hunt's characterisation. They're, by definition, not part of the main story even if they take place during it, and feature entirely different conflicts than our main one. Not to mention that it would be extremely disingenuous for CDPR to...

    Hearts of Stone & Blood and Wine - two massive expansions for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    If whatever happens in Touissant somehow ties to the Wild Hunt and/or Ciri, then I can see it being perfectly doable. It could be like an additional, if optional, branch of the main story, or appear as such until you get there and figure out that it's something else, entirely.

    The Towers Outta Nowhere Bug Probable fix!

    For me it glitched out when I let the mage out of his office. I still haven't figured out how to get it work...

    "King is Dead" - Proper Clothes?

    I suspect you need to have the right set of trousers, not just the right tunic.

    Will this week's DLC be delayed in Europe again?

    I'm in Europe and I downloaded the Wolf Gear just fine through Galaxy.

    "King is Dead" - Proper Clothes?

    I put on the better looking Skellige set and Yennefer complemented me for it.

    How do I enter the Devils Pit Caverns? (minor spoiler?)

    You don't. There is no way to get down there for the time being. People using noclip have found that there are caves, but there's nothing in them. Most likely the area is going to be opened up for one of the free DLC or the first big expansion pack.

    Why is Avallac'h so short compared to his bretheren?

    I am assuming that there are different castes among the Aen Elle. The woman in the company of Ge'els was also of normal stature, as far as I was able to tell. I'm guessing that with all the genetic engineering they've been getting into over the centuries that they've developed specialised roles...

    Why isn't Ciri nude in the sauna?

    It is not me that you have to convince that to, but the wider playerbase and the ratings boards. If CDPR had made Ciri nude for that scene, they would have caught flak for doing that, instead. They can't win, either way, so they picked the less risky route. You need to put yourself into the...

    Why isn't Ciri nude in the sauna?

    I am Finnish. I have, in all likelihood, been to sauna more than you have ever in your life. And I know a great deal about the sauna traditions. In the time past, sauna was where you went to give birth, where your body would be washed after you died. It was where you'd sew wounds and sweat out...

    Why isn't Ciri nude in the sauna?

    Seeing that they did not in any way prevent you from seeing the breasts of every other woman in the room, I don't buy that one bit. Only Ciri is covered up because she is not supposed to be a sex symbol. Why a sauna scene of all things? Because amazingly enough, saunas have cultural significance...

    Why isn't Ciri nude in the sauna?

    The Watsonian explanation is that she was wounded and wearing bandages. The Doylist explanation is that the developers did not want to sexualise her character to the players, since we're supposed to view her as a daughter, not a sex-object.
