    Witcher 3

    I'd skip Witcher 1 for sure, maybe read up on how it ended if you really care. However I don't recommend skipping Witcher 2, it was an amazing game in it's own right and will set the stage for W3

    If you don't have any more on the novigrad quest tracker you're done there, next batch are in skellige.

    Witcher 3

    Don't see the point in trying to stop min/maxing. The hardest difficulty levels technically should be there for the min/maxers and as Vorph mentioned this isn't the case. I was able to beat death march without potions or socketing my gear, some of which was the griffin set I crafted back at...

    Witcher 3

    I noticed the same thing and by level 16 began out leveling quests faster than I can complete them, and I'm sure I even missed a few notice boards or "!" quests. And once you out level stuff by even a little bit they become incredibly easy even on death march. I'm hoping someone can put together...

    Witcher 3

    Yeah this game will kill anyone with any type of complex/OCD/completionist/hoarder. I was doing good keeping up on stuff through velen/novigrad, but once I hit skellige and saw the map and POI's in the middle of the fucking ocean I said fuck it and plowed through the plot quests full throttle.

    Witcher 3

    Novigrad kinda is in/part of velen, so you were probably in and out of there quite a bit and didn't even realize it. You can't get to skellige and advance the plot to kaer morhen w/o going there afiak

    Witcher 3

    That's one of the other issues I've had - The witcher gear is so good I crafted the superior griffin set at like ~16 and have yet to find/buy/craft anything better and I'm now 28. Also, money is so much not an issue later on that haggling, contracts, and loot become pointless. I'll probably...

    Witcher 3

    I don't think the POI's are that bad, my main problem is they don't bread crumb you to actually go out and explore things. I spend most of my time looking at the main map so as not to get lost running to a POI, and the ingame HUD is so damn tiny you don't see anything notable on it till you're...

    Think the point he's trying to make is a market filled with eternaled, exalted, mirrored gear devalue's really good "dropped" rares because no one is going to pay 40 ex for a dropped rare when they can save more and buy a perfectly rolled, divined, t1 mirrored item.

    What's the worst movie you've seen at the theatre?

    I was also annoyed at their need to fit in as many references to 4-6 as they could. R2 and C3 were unnecessary and they literally stuck chewbacca in for 2 seconds just so people could say "OMG ITS CHEWBACCA"

    Shock doesn't stack anymore, just a one time 50% damage increase. If the necro was there you were probably cursed too.

    Think cards are there pretty much to appease the self found or people who avoid trading whenever possible. I'm sure they'll continue to be the least viable farming option - and if not it's easy enough for ggg to adjust the drop rates/locations

    Loot filter is as amazing as the hype made it out to be. Several people have already released comprehensive loot filters that are pretty much set it and forget it from level 1 all the way to end game meeps. Also, GGG did a pretty good job streamlining the earlier acts to fit in act 4 - they're...

    Yeah, pretty much just premium tabs and maybe a few micro's for your favorite skills - Rest is just useless fluff. I tried the HC 5 day solo, was at about position 80 on the ladder when I finally ripped at 82. Was interesting playing forced self found and wasn't as hard to gear up as most people...

    They added 25 more keys to random people who reach level 70 in the self found. I'll participate just to see how things end up on the latter since people can't group/carry through most content.

    Well you can argue that opposite that with shotgunning, every skill capable made GMP mandatory in whats otherwise supposed to be a highly customizable skill system. We'll have to see what the balance numbers say. One example that already defeats some of the doom sayers is flame totem gains...

    The shotgun change also is a buff to chain in a ways, which it needs. Almost never saw anyone using the actual chain support regardless of spell/wand/bow build.

    That's why 99% of the time I only buy b/o and only list b/o when I'm selling - Rarely will I leave something unpriced, not worth the hassle most of the time. Even after eventually beating an offer out of someone, it'll usually be a blatant lowball anyway.

    Witcher 3

    I wouldn't worry about the loot too much. The witcher games thus far were never really loot focused and you could beat both games with the basic tier level crap you could get from a vendor. #2 was a nice improvement over 1 as far as combat goes so if they can continue that trend of improvements...

    Yes it's moddable, but not on the scope of skyrim etc. The devs themselves even released a total combat overhall mod for witcher 2 a year after it was released

    Easier ways to see item level and mana/health bars over your character are another couple of big ones

    They usually give a week or two after a challenge league before they implement a new league/expansion - I'd say 2 weeks after the 1m league is a safe bet. The QoL improvements alone they're implementing will make it worth the wait imo.

    Depends on what you define as rally. If they're all patrons and are not violating anyone's rights like using hate speech then I say they have every right to be there.

    Business owners opened up their businesses of their own free will, no one put a gun to their head on that matter. It's at that point when you advertise a service or good, you need to provide it to all or none.

    Welcome to the fucking service industry! Where you actually have to serve people! So if a bunch of rabbi's and muslims walk into the bakery that doesn't support gay people and sells them cupcakes, are they now saying they share their beliefs as well?

    I think the idea is that by the time you're near the end of the game enough real life time will have passed that you can afford a nice enough rig to run the final battle on max settings.

    Once again selective religious beliefs to fit ones agenda/narrative. This is just the latest strategy of the conservatives in the battle of gay marriage. Case in point - The cake shop that started all of this was so strong in their religious beliefs to deny a cake to some gay men, yet last I...

    Haven't seen many people on. Most are probably waiting on Act 4. Bloodlines is one of the tougher leagues they've released, so probably better to play on standard or Torment to start.

    Right, don't see many flicker builds on hardcore. I know I wouldn't risk it. Desync is very manageable once you know what to avoid, and a random movement skill throws that out the window.
