Please make Gwent Cards purchasable from merchants.

[Ravici]

As for this whole thing of getting a platinum.. it's a challenge, if you fail the challenge, you fail. It isn't something that should be just given to you :/

We have a society that rewards cheating these days and that's not a good thing.

All these walkthroughs and guides are a terrible thing

Well, they already fixed the White Orchard Innkeeper, I have faith that they'll get to fixing all the other Gwent related bugs and missable cards.
Something tells me that they're busy with some other fixes right now though, and Gwent cards don't have that high of a priority.

Hope you are right, I'm not in a hurry but I just need to know if they took this issue in consideration or not... We will see, they could include few lootable cards in the world too. Anyway, if they just allow us to win missable cards when playing with a special NPC, I will be happy !

No one is forcing you to play Gwent.

Really?

 

[Briarpack]

Really?

Not required in order to get through the story.
It's an achivement ffs. You want the achievement? Play the game.

 

[r0nx]

Platinum is a choice, no one is forced to go for it.

This game is full of missable things and that's a good thing! Why should CDProjectRed give u anything for free?

Going for platinum isn't fare or easy, everyone just can't do it.

If u miss something for your actions play again or don't, its up to u not the devs to just give u things!

Only thing that needs changing is this trophy to gold not bronze.

I seriously do not understand why people act as if I want the whole Gwent to be destroyed.I just requested it to be arbitrary.

If you want to play it you play it,if you don't you just buy the necessary cards.

 

[sophitieux]

Please... we just want no missable cards, for myself it's a gameplay issue, the goal is the fun and the possibility to create the deck I want and it's now impossible because I missed few cards. The achievement/trophy isn't a end or the first problem...

I prefer to have fun and play that's all, the trophy is a reward and it's another thing...

All I want is no missable cards

What you are actually saying is, you want a way to fix your mistake. You want a perfect score without having to do a perfect run.

 

[r0nx]

There is no excitement playing a game where is nothing to miss!

It's the whole thrill of playing games where your choices make a huge difference..

So no patch for missable cards just add a notice that u have failed Collect `Em All!

 

[Briarpack]

If you want to play it you play it,if you don't you just buy the necessary cards.

That's the thing isn't? You shouldn't be allowed to just go from merchant to merchant and buy the cards to complete the quest and get the achievement. That can't really be called an achievement and it's certainly not worth a trophy.

Spoiler

So what this is actually all about is the Gwent tournament during the masquerade, right?

I think that if the game doesn't let the player know that this is the only time you can get these cards, then it should be addressed by letting you play against these opponents later on. Because the player can't really be faulted for not knowing the tournament was there in the first place.
And like I said earlier; they already did this with the White Orchard innkeeper, that situation was really not that different than this one. But that's just my opinion and I have this opinion because I hate missable things in games.

What irks me with Gwent and the achievement are the bug(s) that can prevent the player from getting the cards, namely the Arinbjorn innkeeper (pretty much identical to the White Orchard one, though I think there's a fix for this in 1.05).

 

[cloolvl]

Really?

really.

it doesnt say "play gwent or we will send hired killers to get you irl" now does it

 

[quitegonejin]

Thanks for answering without being an asshole. This will certainly help me.

My earlier comment was actual confusion, not attitude. It seemed like what you are asking for already exists; "Please make Gwent Cards purchasable from merchants."

I guess you meant; "Please make ALL Gwent Cards purchasable from merchants."

 

[LarsVerbNL]

Thanks, but this dude have no cards. I'm still missing:

• NR: Foltest-Lord Commander of the North (L)
Scholar: PLAY:
• N: Zoltan Chivay

Any idea how to get them?

Merchant next to the Woesong Bridge signpost in White Orchard.


No one is forcing you to play Gwent.

I agree that missable cards should be made available, but through means similar to the way they're meant to be acquired. For example, if a merchant bugs out and refuses to talk to you and thus won't sell you cards or a Person in Distress -quest bugs out and you can't find a merchant, then this should be fixed or the cards should be made available for purchase from another merchant -that's a given.
Or if you miss the cards from the tournament you should be able to play against the same opponents somewhere else and get the cards.

But making cards available for purchase from merchants just because some players can't be bothered to play the game? Nuh-uh.

Are you playing on Xbox One or PS4?
The cards were made available on PC in patch 1.04, but that patch has yet to come out on consoles I think. So you'll just have to wait until the patch is released on consoles and then go buy the cards from that merchant.

yes ps4. So zoltan will be available to buy as well?

 

[DuranA]

Would be great. I like playing Gwent but I hate having to run everywhere to complete a full deck.

 

[Briarpack]

yes ps4. So zoltan will be available to buy as well?

Yes, I believe so.

This is not about it being a challenge, make the missable cards cost alot of gold and then it is still a challenge.

I spent a month sailing around in Assassin's Creed BF looking for a white whale for a platinum, before the devs had the balls to admit the trophy was bugged.
Spent hours on Dragon's Age Inquisition for platinum, didn't get it because the kill 10 dragons trophy is glitched which would mean I'd have to spend that time again.
The simple fact is some of these trophies are bugged on W3, so if you are going to make it difficult for people, don't screw them over.

Once again I'll mention that they have a "Collect Em All" quest that never FAILS if you miss a card, a quest should FAIL as soon as you FAIL to complete it, especially if you have spent hours and hours going around the world collecting cards and unaware you entered a quest via world exploration only to find that it screwed you out of a card.

It's QoL.

True, I fully agree with you. CDProjekt should do something with Gwent Card... But I agree with the op and you, one vendor NPC should sell every card at a high price and yes it's still challenging because gold isn't so easy to get.

Can you read the last sentence of my first post in this thread? I am sure you'll find what you're looking for.
