I figured out my crash problem.

Running CPUID in the background was causing the crashes. Don't have a clue why. I stopped running it earlier in the week and haven't had a single crash since.

Game has been MUCH nicer without stressing over inventory since I picked up that super saddlebag.

Also been much nicer since I set up the mutagens.

My DPS went from under 200 to almost 590 in the last couple of days.

Vellen is almost clean. I've cleared everything except the one or two towns overrun by level 25 mobs and all of the guarded treasure spots over lvl 20. Tried few of the level 20 spots and they still laughed at my weakness.

I've got about 6k gold.

Going to get back to questing tomorrow. Tonight was all about clearing out the bad guys from Vellen.

So much fun now at level 14 to run into a pack of stupid pirates / cannibals / deserters and just make them explode all over the place.

Oh, I still need to kill Jenny. I've killed a lvl 18 moonwraith but for some reason, I can't seem to knock Jenny out of the park. I'll get her before I go to sleep.

This game hates background programs.

Took me like 6 or 7 tries to kill her at level 11. Finally stopped trying to play aggressive and played super defensive. Oil is a must. Quen is needed at all times. Dodge constantly until you can use yrden. Attack then. Also, anytime she spawns multiple wraiths go into attack mode on them as they regenerate her health. Patience was the key for me.

I'm assuming once you beat the main story, you still get to play and finish any leftover quests? I've only got a few left, but and oven been holding off on finishing everything.

Also, I don't know how I'm ever going to get to level 35 or anything. I'm at 26, and besides question marks in Skellige, there isn't much left to do

So I just donned my final set of gear. Level 31, only a couple sidequests left. Here are my stats. No spoilers in SS.

Spoiler: if you haven't found Ciri yet, just don't read.


























That snowball fight. Seriously one of the just happiest moments I've had in a game. So simple yet so wonderful.

So, I did all of the undiscovered locations in Velen/Novigrad except for Bald Mountain.

Has anyone had a problem with a certain bandit camp not showing that it is cleared?

Eta: this was a reply to Scruffy

No, but I've had a problem with an exclamation mark mission in north novigrad, by the dwarves that run the flower farm. I can't start the mission. The woman in supposed to talk to won't talk to me.

I've had issues with loading when I meet characters sometimes where it won't let me talk to them if I keep trying to interact with them. Usually, if I stand there for a minute or walk away and come back, it works.

This is one where I can intereact with the character, it just doesn't go into a cut scene. I just get a reaction like if I tried to talk to a strumpet basically.

Hmmm...weird.

There are a few strange bugs in this game.

There's one marker that can't be cleared for a lot of players. Pretty sure it was in a bandit camp. It involves getting a key to a chest. Once you open and loot it, it doesn't get marked as cleared. It then says that the chest is locked and you can't get another key to open it.

This game looks good, but it needs to be said -- they really half-assed the water visuals and effects. It's just terrible.

I don't mind the water. I love the fact it isn't blurry when under the water like most games.

I spoke too soon. Had about 4 crashes today.

Ard Skellig is buggy. Lots of loot slipping underground after a kill.

Almost 100 hours in and I really like how the game doesn't scale.

What I don't like is that the XP scales down.

Getting 5XP pisses me off and since I spent most of my time in Vellen, that means a ton of Novi quests are worthless and many ard quests are worthless.

That sucks!

No, the one I'm talking about is kinda on the lower left part of Velen. It is a bandit camp that has a bunch of drowners near it. One of the guys was killed by a drowner and it didn't clear after I opened the chest. I check it occasionally when I play and I can get florens from it every time. It just won't clear.
