Witcher 3

I'm on gigabit and it took around 45 minutes. I wasn't watching it closely though.

So I pay for 500Mbps, Noodle is paying for twice that, and j00t probably has no idea what he's paying for and wouldn't even mind if he got served cold soup when he ordered a burger. And we all got the same download speeds. Which must mean it's capped for some reason.

But yea. You get what you get and you don't get upset!

Cheaters never prosper. Also its really boring to sit there resetting over and over because you only get 10 karma per code entry. At least it's easy to cheese karma in the crypt in SNES.

Khane Yes, that's the right mod. It downloads as 3 seperate install files that take a while to download off of Nexus mods since I'm not premium, so it caps at 2 MB/s. Fast Travel from anywhere is a must, but be careful as some quests I've noticed want you to go "outside" to trigger something, before you go to the next objective. Recently there was one where I killed the objective inside the cave, and fast traveled immediately out back to the castle, and it wasn't progressing. Go back to the cave, and it wanted to do some horse race that triggered as soon as you walked out of the cave which I hadn't done. That and unlimited weight one, where it sets your weight limit to 9000 is very useful.

listen bro, i LIKE soup.

So do mods just load automatically? I don't see anything in the steam settings or options for the game, or in game settings.

I use Nexus Mod Manager for mine, but I run about 30 mods.

I just watched the TV show and really wanted to play this again, but then I thought about the 120 hours I put into it the first time. Love the game but that's a long haul.

I thought the same thing, but then I thought...

That's why you buy the PC version and download mods like fast travel from anywhere and gwent dealer.

if you run more than a few mods, make sure you get script merger and run it whenever you get a new mod. there are a scant few mods that require you to copy a file from the mod folder to the bin folder, but that will just add a mod menu in the options menu of the game. things like the auto-loot mod need that. otherwise, yeah, just drop the mod into the witcher3/mods folder and you should be good to go

Nexus Mods has a stand-alone app called Vortex that I use to install the mods. It's kind of convoluted/burdensome for just a few mods, but it seems to keep things straight.

Gwent Dealer? You mean there is an easy way to do all these Gwent quests without having to put much thought into the card game, because I don't give a shit?! (looking it up right now)

Should I play Witcher 2 before 3?

I've been trying to get into this but the movement and combat makes me hate playing it.

What's wrong with movement and combat?

Clunky is the best way I can describe the controls

It's really not that hard. The combat is actually sneakily satisfying, randomly cleaving people in half, after decapitating their buddy is pretty damn fun.
