The menus are bad but I'm surprised no one has mentioned the tiny text on the loot and harvest items.


It never crossed my mind because I have good eyes and play relatively close to a 50 inch TV (RIP good eyes), but there has been a ton of bitching about it on reddit. That and repeatedly extinguishing/igniteing candles over and over again trying to loot.

I keep running in circles around my horse trying to mount.

I hate this. Very gimmicky feature. Plus the "loot/ignite/examine" button detection is pretty bad. I hate when your character has to face the object, and not just the camera. After killing something I often find myself on top of the loot spinning aimlessly looking for the loot popup.

I only put it on the notch above because the reviewer for gamespot said it was too easy on Normal. Apparently he is way better than me.

Does the bloody baron remind anyone else of Robert baratheon?

I just run around hitting "A" a ton over an area where I killed some things. Works more often then not.

Adding the red clue stuff to the minimap was a game changer.

I literally pulled up imdb for the game to see if it was the same actor

I started doing this, but with the huge amount of useless loot, specifically shitty swords and blackjacks, I like to go through each to avoid getting overburdened.

You mean in the options? I think I did this last night because now I see magnifying glasses on the mini map all of a sudden. Didn't know what it was.

Gotta get a saddlebag. I haven't had this issue yet. I just end up selling a ton of stuff or disassemble it.

Yeah it is really helpful for when you have to find something with your Witcher sense in some big area.

What do I do with. The huge griffon head that's attached to my saddle now?

I've been wondering that myself. It was cool at first but now it's starting to get a little annoying

You can unequip it but it gives you a 10% chance at dismemberment

I switched it with the Noonwraith head. The disemberment is cool and all, but the Noonwraith head you get from the devil by well quest gives you a 5% Xp boost to each kill.

How to fight in Witcher 3:



In the little interrogation part where you go so the emperor, I'm assuming they were asking about stuff that happened in previous games. I was so lost at that point. "you had to watch your friend die" "Nah, she escaped, dumbass".. Sure, why not

Yeah this is because your decisions from previous games matter but there is no import save game feature, at least on console, so you have to decide what you did previously.

I honestly forget games I played a month ago let alone years ago.

Well, hope I made good decisions . Killed some people, made some alliances, mostly killed people.

I sure as hell did not bow to that pompous arse.

I just made some badass (relative of course) swords for myself. I have so much alchemy/crafting shite because I never know what diagrams call for.

Picking things up, accidentally igniting shite, getting on horse, and fall damage all suck arse

I'm playing pretty far from a 60" TV and the text is way too frickin small too. I put my glasses on and it's still hard


Just talked with Emhyr and split with Yen. frick, the writing is good in this game. Only series where I'll turn subtitles off and explore every dialogue option
