@Gilrond-i-Virdan Planetary Nomads is the opposite of No Man's sky in many ways. No Man's Sky is all about exploring a massive, procedurally generated universe. Planetary Nomads is all about exploring & surviving on one single planet. Two different approaches the same genre.
Some of you are going to laugh at this: I'm only just reaching the end of the main story of The Witcher 3.
So I haven't even played Hearts of Stone. I know, laugh it up.
I'm on Skellige for the Sunstone and I've killed Madman Lugos, wrecked Avallach's lab, helped Ciri bury Skjall and now I'm going to look for Fringilla.

If you've struggled to finish TW3, I think the expansions might be right up your alley. More focused, better bosses and mostly better writing.
I'm definitely near the end right? I hear that Blood and Wine is the best of the two expansions.
Hearts of Stone has the better main quest, Blood and Wine has the better sidequests. So you need to play them both.
You think? Dunno personally. I actually prefer BaW in every aspect. Infact i don't even play HoS anymore i skip it, bored of it now.
Mistake #1: Playing the game without mods.
Mistake #2: Not playing the expansions.
Seriously, the core mods that make the game much better are easy to install. Anywhoo, this is not a witcher thread...

Nothing to laugh at here. I didn't even start the game yet

Been thinking about picking up Mankind Divided, (I am running with a 980ti & I7) but my Pa warned me that it supposedly runs awfully even on the higher end of the spectrum.
Can anyone attest to it's performance issues? And is it just the PC version?
Is it just another Square Enix catastrophe like Rise of the Tomb Raider which felt like it was going to melt my PC and slow cook me in my room as I was playing it? (Come to think of it, still haven't picked that game back up).

Since the expansions were mentioned, my opinion is Hearts of Stone is quite good, but very action oriented. Blood and Wine is pretty much a game in its own right, with a solid main story and relevant side quests, much more cohesive than the main game. Unlike the rest of TW3, I wanted to replay B&W almost immediately.
I agree 100%. It's nearly impossible to play HoS as a stand-alone game. But BaW could be very well a stand-alone! In my opinion HoS is in the final analyses just one single questline (a longer one of course) as part of the whole game TW3.
Okay folks, please be kind and continue with Witcher topic in appropriate Witcher forums. This is a general video game thread, yes, but because we do have own forums for Witcher games, that topic should be discussed there. Or you can take the discussion to private mails.
Further Witcher posts in this thread will be deleted or moved.

It ran relativelly well on my mid-end PC (R9 380, i5) on medium-high settings and most fancy graphics settings turned on. So far from what I have gathered, there's a few graphics settings that on ultra, absolutely kill the framerate.
