[act iii] ways to get fast n' easy gold?
I was just wondering what other people's opinions were on this subject...I found myself really scraping around for money in the early parts of the game, but towards the end ended up with major cash, and nothing to spend it on. Now, I just absolutely loved the game - I have never played a better RPG, or anything for that matter. I think The Witcher did a fantastic job balancing most things, except the money situation. I'm sure for some people this is not a big deal, but if you end up making money in a game, I kind of like having something to spend it on. For me, it kind of took the fun out of gambling, fist fighting, and that "hey, I found some Alber's Crystals!" feeling. So I was wondering - is balancing the money vs. things to buy in the game important to anyone else? What would you like to see them do with the money situation in the next game? I tried coming up with some ideas. Of course, the obvious is always new equipment - armor, swords, etc. There's always blowing some money on hookers...I thought maybe for a role-playing effect, he could have options of helping out friends...say if a buddy of his lost their business to a fire, or a monster attack, you would have the choice of refusing help, or giving them 500, 1000, or 2000 orens to get them back on their feet. Paying debts for people to get them out of trouble, or bailing someone out of jail. Maybe the chance to make some really exotic potions, but you would have to purchase an extra exotic ingredient to make it...Maybe I just don't know what to do with myself now that I have finished playing the game... :wall: Does anyone else the same way about accumulating tons of money in a game, and end up with nothing to spend it on at some point? What would you like to be able to do with your money?
