Welcome to The Hairy Bear: The Witcher Off-Topic [Archived]

[Senteria]

Hello people, I have been avoiding the forums a little bit, because I am afraid to be spoiled, even though everyone's doing a fine job to have a seperate spoiler section. I just wanted to say that I really love the witcher 3. Even though I play it at worse graphics than consoles and worse performance. I still love everything. <3

Also love you all.

So i was looking about the internet and I got a wee bit bored, so just for laughs, I searched for UK sellers of Longswords and I found this from the Knight Shop:

Now THAT is a sword! Looks like it would be right at home in Geralt's hands!

As far as I can judge, a very fine piece! Indeed, it does resemble one of the Geralt's new blades.

Here's my old hand-and-a-half, a modern battle-ready reproduction of a 14th-century German, or possibly Swiss, design:

(It wants for a spot of cleaning, though, as it doesn't quite look its best, here.)

Next Ren Faire is in October.... Playing the Witcher makes it so hard to wait. I started digging through my garb trying to scheme what I need to work on before it's that time again. Some rivets need redone, need to make a leather sheath for a sword and a spear. I would like to fool around with making chain mail and incorporating fur, but I'll be lucky to get any of this done by then... I just need to motivate some friends into letting me borrow their garage. I'm surprised I haven't been kicked out of my apartment after all the riveting we've done here in the past. LOL my mini anvil is about the size of my hand.... Still loud as all hell.

Dammit! If Vesemir see this blasfemy!!! A Witcher can dress in rags, neglect their hygiene, but never fail to keep his sword in perfect condition

Damn. I thought he had a couple more years left in him at least.

RIP you legend.

I was expecting him to reach 100 with ease. :-

A sad day..

Dammit! My Dear and Unique Dracula left us?

RIP

A fun fact about Lee. He came to Finland during the Winter War with the Soviets with some other British volunteers in 1939 and spend two weeks in the battlefront. Apparently didn't see much action but Finnish people have huge respect for him.

 

[Engagerade]

Everyone that fought for Finland during the war are goddamn heroes.

Spoiler

The betrayal of Finland by Sweden is something that should never be forgotten nor forgiven

 

[eskiMoe]

Past is past. I'm more concerned about present and future.

 

[randyrhoads]

well fuck...
RIP Sir, you are one of the most talented people I've ever seen.

The Theatre has lost a truly rare knight of the word, a man who commanded a masterful and imperial voice, rich and dynamic.

Great actors of my childhood are leaving this world one by one. I'm so scared for many others as well : (
