Cringe but redpilled

There's no problem in that webm, even if it's 4 years old and used daily on the same threads.
Having an "highlight to interact" mechanic is not a flaw. The game could work without it but it's not objectively worse with it.
It was GOTY because it is a great game with a large scale but no real flaw unlike most open world RPGs.

Because if I keep pretending that a good story and sex scenes makes a game mature, then my dad can no longer tell me that videogames are a waste of time.

It's okay when any RPG developer does it because that's literally what their customers are looking for. You'd understand this if you'd ever played anything in the genre before.

>*autoruns on road to quest marker*
This is not how autorun works in the W3.
Are you sure you're not writing about Assassin's Creed?

1 isnt even a game
its a story with psudo controls the likes of with

>combat you say hmm rather than navigate this pool of human excrement we call controls why not just punch yourself in the face to save time

How is boring gameplay not a real flaw?

Start typing like a human and then make an argument

The games kinda shit when you realise there no point doing side quests unless for the story

Looks like someone thought they were a true gamer and never used the auto pilot before

Autorun in W3 won't automatically lead you to your destination. It just follows a road.

It's a game for and praised by retards.

Maybe turn that shit off and don’t complain? It literally gives you the option to turn that ability off. Don’t bitch here just because your IQ is sub 90 and you couldn’t figure that out.

Because combat has never been the primary focus of RPGs?

I'm replaying just now and I think combat is good.
It's infinitely better than two last Assassin's Creeds and Dark Souls-like combat wouldn't fit in this type of game. Also it's very questionable whether DS has better combat.
So, if TW3's combat system is the best in its league, then I believe it cannot be too bad. Even if it has some imperfections.

Because the game has great characters, an engaging story, fantastic atmosphere and lore, and plenty of choices at key junctures in the narrative. Yes the game holds your hand too much during questing, but the Witcher was never a detective game to begin with.

Even dragon age origins has batman vision. No one wants to waste hours looking for a pixel. It worked in older games because they had shit graphics and not many objects on screen.

Fuck that. W1 and 2 were keyboard games. No reason for CDPR to drop the ball so fucking hard

Graphics and semi-well-written quests, sometimes.

No one plays the Witcher for the gameplay. The combat are terrible, the inventory is broken, the loot doesn't work, and the loot auto-levelling is retarded. It doesn't really work as a game. It works pretty well as a decent movie, though, and people like movies in videogame format.

Don't get me wrong: only a subset of people like movie in videogame format. But that subset is big enough for it to be a success.

Okay, if you say so, I accept it.

Game felt like a better skyrim, it did everything better than it, with combat being the only weak point It has better character, better world, better monsters, better loot, better story, better quests.

Goes to show how brand name sells things

Not sure if pasta or mentally deficient, but:
TW3 has its flaws, like any other game. But what you retards are always crying about makes no sense. You're crying that TW3 isn't a bastard child of DS3 and Peppa pig adventure game. You're so dumbed down by everyday life that you can't accept things that can't fit into your little safe box. You feel good when you have control over your character in a way that allows you to look "skilled" (DS3), because it makes you forget about your miserable fat existence and the fact that you're getting fucking nowhere with your life. And for the record, I finished DS3 and TW3 several times, enjoyed both, and I'm a fat fuck; but I'm still laughing at you.

What the webm you posted shows is a skill you unlock deep into the sword tree. It's a fucking skill you mongol. The game is an RPG. Do you remember what that meant for many titles from 1995 - 2005? How the category defined the games? It meant literally anything as long as you got to shape your character and fill yourself into the storytelling. Look at fucking Arx, Diablo 1, Divine Divinity, Planescape:Torment, the developers had the fucking balls to be innovative and original. I'm so glad CDPR made the game the way they did just for the fact that it assblasts the autistic elitists on Yea Forums. And for once I give it to the casual crowd too, they're not doing anything wrong by enjoying the game.

How did a movie win GOTY again?

By being a better game than the trash released in 2015

Usually it still won't lead you to the marker, because you have to steer manually at intersections.

Hey bro, did you play W1 and 2? And if you did would you consider them worth it?

I strongly disagree. I very, very strongly disagree, on gameplay and sense of discovery at least.

Skyrim combat is horrible, but the Witcher 3 combat is worse. The auto-levelling on loot destroying all sense of progression is bad in Skyrim. It is even worth in the Witcher. The Witcher completely butchers any sense of exploration. Or progressing your character through levelling. Skyrim is very bad at levelling, the Witcher is, again, worse.

In other words, Skyrim barely works as a game - Witcher 3 simply doesn't work at all. That's why so many people poke fun at it. Its graphics are amazing, some quests are written splendidly, some characters are great, but the games is fundamentally broken as a game, in a way Skyrim isn't (though approach, at time).

>poisefag

Most modern RPGs have better combat than TW3

that's a pretty damn long and serious response to an obvious shitpost, are you okay friend?

Over 100 hours of gameplay. So 20% of the game is a cutscene at worst.

By comparison, the halo games offered a similar ratio of 1 hour of cutscene and 5 hours gameplay.

maybe pic related? its been awhile since i played though but i enjoyed it surprisingly. more like an mmorpg without the massive multiplayer onlin part

Normal dialogues doesn't count as cutscenes.
And when the game is 100H+ it has the right to contain a lot of cutscenes anyway.

For me it felt like single player MMORPG.

Bloodborne was released in 2015

Too bad the Bitcher 3's gameplay is garbage. Why does nobody ever praise the combat? It's always "wow such a good STORY, geralt is badass i wish i could fuck hot bitches every day like him"

Still orders of magnitude better than Breath of the Wild or God of War. Yet I only ever see people bitching about Witcher.

Bloodbore is an inferior game to tw3. That's why it was completely eclipsed and made no impact whatsoever.

I praise the combat.
As I said before: name any better.

>For me it felt like single player MMORPG.
thats exactly how it felt too me too. the weapon variety was nice.
i cant think of many action rpgs off the top of my head but none really stick out to me as having great combat. i gave witcher 3 a chance because i liked the quests.

100% yes

Witcher 3 is fun for like 1 or 2 playthroughs but by the time you'd try to start any more playthroughs, it just falls flat, know how the story and most event goes just takes away from the experience and the combat itself can't hold the game on it's own enough.

Considering that one playthrough of the main game + dlcs can take over 150 hours if you do side quests, I would say it's really not meant to be replayed.

It's a brainless ubisoft sandbox with above-average writing and shitty but appealing to normies graphics. It was bound to be a success.

Pretty small list.

Bloodborne isn't an RPG tho. No questing and no xp system.

Two playthroughs with expansions would be probably like 300-400 hours.
Is there any other RPG you can play for so long and still have fun?

Bloodborne

I finished my first playthrough in like 90 hours and I got the worst ending possible since I didn't pay enough attention to some stuff.

I think that's kind of the only reason I started a 2nd playthrough where I actually managed to get everything right and then played the DLCs as well, that one took me at least 180 hours to complete or so.

It's a reasonable thing to be angry about
the game overall seems great and then then you get to the fucking combat and it just makes you incredible mad because it worsens the experience so much

the only good thing that came out of nu Yea Forums

>Why does nobody ever praise the combat?
Because most people didn't play on Death March. That's the only difficulty where you are really compelled to use all the mechanics.

Fallout: NV
Planescape: Torment

a game isn't about gameplay, good one bro, how bout you uh fuck off

To be fair Skyrim was revolutionary at the time in terms of content bloat. The world and quest volume was unprecedented and the wow factor won GOTY alone.

Same case with RDR2, game is detailed to a fault, but the actual gameplay is a linear cinematic yawn fest.

Souls series have corridor-based maps and not many opponents at once. This fighting style doesn't fit to fully open world game.
Beside it's a well polished but very simple system. Even after hundred of hors your character doesn't look like it can actually fight any weapon, has only a few simple animations.

Fine, I can agree with this one. And, considering D:OS2 is a brilliant RPG, it's a good company to be with.

Those slow downs on hit fucking suck, do you actually play like that?

So, just like bloodborne?
Besides, the game provides you with a ton of choices, so only the background is fixed, not the character.

the combat is fun but thats about the only thing koa gets right in my opinion

I couldnt be bothered to finish it even tho the combat is fun

Who the fuck would remember? I played the game when it released. I would assume that it is required several times during the main quest. Don't be bummed about it.

NEO Scavenger.

>80% of the sidequests are boring
>Sidequests never give any weapons/armor of value
>"?"s are pointless wastes of time

Main story was okay. Game definitely overrated.

>so only the background is fixed
So the character is fixed. What I don't want to be Geralt? What if I don't even want to be a Witcher and I just want to be a simple soldier in the world? Really shitty action adventure game. Just like Bloodborne.

But it is cute to watch both of you secondaries argue over whos turd sandwich tastes better.

You can't compare combat in isometric RPG and ARPG.

I admit I didn't try it. But isn't it more a survival loot game than proper RPG?

>What if I don't even want to be a Witcher and I just want to be a simple soldier in the world?
Every rpg has a main quest/story and you play a certain role with very minor changes between the "different" characters. Sounds like you just don't like video games.

The Witcher 3 is literally rolling and clicking your mouse at the right time. Dark Souls actually has movesets and animations and even fucking frame data if you want to get technical.

Woah, I guess these games aren't RPGs either.

he literally said “has sex” to undermine this kind of reply you fuckin summer faggot

Thief II

From a narrative design and a world design Witcher 3 is basically exactly like Witcher 2 with some similarities to Witcher 1 in the sense that you frequently spend a lot of
time in one hub of the game, then once the plot demands you leave, you leave. The only difference is that in Witcher 3 you aren't forced to stay in hubs you don't like for extended periods of time and can go dick around in others.

> [ Put game here ] is literally pressing button at the right time.
By the lord, we have some groundbreaking discovery right here!
And DS isn't any different in this matter, in fact it's much simpler than Witcher.

The fact that you're being disingenuous and are purposefully missing the point is all I need to know I've won this argument.

It's been years since I played but I remember most quests that had you tracking or investigating anything required the batman vision to interact even if you were looking straight at it. If you tried to actually look for clues and try to do some detective work the game literally would not let you progress without doing it the exact way the devs wanted you. I always prefer playing games with no hud if possible and it was a fucking chore in W3. You'd often have to be in a really specific and arbitrary spot to trigger something and there was absolutely nothing in game telling you where it was besides the minimap. The game in general had really lazy visual design and was overly reliant on magic bread crumbs to relay information to the player
I say all this as someone who enjoyed the game for the most part but these and other little annoyances got more and more frustrating as the game went on and led me to dropping it around Skellige

I bought mount and blade, a role playing game. I want to play the role of a farmer, the game doesn't allow that. Just like how the witcher doesn't allow you to be a simple soldier.

>you're pigeonholed into playing the same character every playthrough
The hell are you talking about? You can focus a build on combat, alchemy, signs, or any combination thereof. There's a ton of variety to builds. Just because they're not classified as "classes" and because they all carry a sword doesn't change the fact that there are plenty of different ways to play.

Attached: witcher3 0026.jpg (1920x1080, 1.94M)

kill yourself retard

Yes I can, both are better.

Mount and Blade allows you to be dozens of different things.
The witcher allows you to be a witcher.
I guess you're actually retarded. Sucks for you. Go back and play The Reddit 3 now bud.

Not a damn thing about Witcher 2 is better than Witcher 3. The open world isn't any detriment to the narrative at all. Stop with this stupid meme.

If you think different "builds" in the witcher 3 offer any variety worth mentioning, you literally just need to play more video games.

To be honest none of those things is necessary to do Role Playing, even if those mechanics are usually associated with the genre.
But I'd say Souls are slashers rather than actual RPGs.

I can't wait for you to tell me how motorboats are better than cars.

It was the wrong choice because having an open-world design limits every story arc into their own bubble, or rather creates a multitude of story arcs that are totally unrelated to each other. Compare Baron's questline with Floatsam's, what you do in his questline alters only his fate whereas siding with Iorveth or Roche changes an entire chapter and unfolds a one half of the overarching story with replaying the game being your only option to fully understand what's going on in the game world. Even in the first game, the final chapter played out differently depending on your choices but in Witcher 3 you only get to see one final 4-5m gameplay that's is dependent on superficial stuff like playing snowball or thrashing some faggot elf's lab.
I was honestly expecting a better Witcher 2 experience, a more polished one at that but it being open-world destroyed that possibility utterly.

Mount and blade only allows you to be an army commander

Witcher allows you to be a mage, warrior or potion guy. It also allows you to choose factions and alliances as the story progresses.

You have no argument. You dug yourself into a hole the moment you brought up the retarded soldier role thing.

Imagine actually believing this. Nice redditspacing by the way, you don't even try to hide it.

There is an xp system and there are quests tho. It just doesn't say in big writing on the screen, "MYSTERY OF THE UMBILICAL CORD!"

>untrue, try again
Okay, show me the farming community leader gameplay in mount and blade. You said it's a real rpg which allows you to play different characters. I don't want to be an army commander.

When will the masses realize CDPR makes bad action games, not RPGs? Can't wait for Cyberflop a.k.a. GTA2077 to surpass TW3 as the biggest joke the RPG genre has seen

>You said it's a real rpg which allows you to play different characters.
That means it has to have every single character type possible? You're moving the goalposts.

You can play mountain blade without a party, and without combat for the entire game. You can be a trader quite easily. You can also be a merc in somebody elses company. You can also pick from many races and backgrounds and are NEVER tied to a fucking story specific character.
You're either genuinely retarded or trolling. Can't expect much from redditspacing witcherfags though.

>There is an xp system
Blood echoes aren't xp. Xp is by definition permanent.

>It just doesn't say in big writing on the screen, "MYSTERY OF THE UMBILICAL CORD!"
So the quests aren't the primary goal and the game doesn't even have a proper questing system built into it. No success/failure criteria either - doesn't even matter if you do a single of these ""quests""

Easy to say that without offering up any examples. A build based on chugging decoctions versus one where you let signs and bombs do the heavy lifting feel like completely different games.

The first Witcher was a proper RPG. I kept hoping they would return to the old ways, but after 2 disappointments, I will not be fooled again.

Take the L brainlet. Quests are still quests even if they aren't mapped with a map marker and "Investigate the strange goings on around Yharnam (PRESS SQUARE TO ACTIVATE HUNTER VISION)"

And you can be a warrior, mage or potions guy in witcher. You can also choose between different factions.

Also, by your retarded standards, there are like 10 RPG games in total. Deus ex and planescape aren't RPGs? stfu retard.

Too bad they fell for the open world meme, same thing that ruined Zelda. Cybershit is shaping up to be a bastard child of GTA5 and Fallout 4, but with a healthy injection of reddit "humor"

I love videogames, I don't like "gamers."
Also, you keep redditspacing. I think you need to go back. Come back to this board when you aren't a dumb nigger that sucks at videogames.

This isn't due to the open world, its how they wrote the game. Very loosely connected plots ins't a flaw, it's just not what they were going for. Witcher 2's political focus made that kind of story telling essential to get the whole picture as you said, but in Witcher 3 it's simply not necessary.

>love videogames, I don't like "gamers

then why are you on a board full of gamers?

autism

Yea Forums is not a board full of gamers at all, it is decidedly board culture to despise the term. Everytime a thread is made about the topic, the same arguments about "musicers" and "moviers" are made. I don't know why I'm spoonfeeding you, it is clear you are a fucking newfag and need to lurk moar.

>To be fair Skyrim was revolutionary at the time in terms of content bloat. The world and quest volume was unprecedented and the wow factor won GOTY alone.

But Skyrim was smaller than Oblivion, user.

This entire thread has been you trying to fit in then getting BTFO for your shitty taste in videogames, fag.

Even worse when you realize BioWare is dead.

Witcher senses could have been much better implemented. I dislike that activating them is a requirement to trigger quest progression when you're looking right at what you're supposed to be using them to search for. However, it's still better than your favorite game.

I still think it's worth playing just to ogle at muh graphics and no loading screens for interiors. I wouldn't bother trying to do the side content or even finish the story since the more you play the more apparent the flaws become. Pirate it and play it for a few hours so you can appreciate the surface level things that it does right

How about not playing a game called "Witcher" if you don't want to be a witcher you stupid cunt

>What the fuck went wrong
Marketing.

Thank fuck about it too, and this time it wasn't really the slavshits that put them in their place.

desu the only game I ever liked from Bioware is the first Mass Effect. Anything after that was bad

Okay as long as everyone can accept it is decidedly not an RPG!

Yep. Third person sword-swingin games like this are janky as hell with a keyboard and mouse.

I enjoyed the witcher 3, gameplay wasn't perfect but I sure had fun

Every time I see this I try and figure out how a person could be this stupid. I've seen it three times and still don't have an answer.

It was literally an MMORPG that didn't have working netcode.

Every fucking time with these underaged retards that had their first d&d session and feel the need to shitpost about JRPGs not giving enough choice
No, sweety, roleplaying video games are not what you think they are
Now fuck off

He had to click an extra button to activate the quest

I made a huge mistake in turning the difficulty down to normal because I didn't know that meditating refilled your potions. I thought you had to remake them from scratch every time and I was getting fucked on health to the point that I thought I'd have to meditate after every fight to regain it. I'm fucking retarded. Game is no fun under Blood and Broken Bones.

No, they aren't what you think they are. Witcher is literally not an RPG, it is an action adventure story driven game. You probably think Skyrim is an RPG too you fucking assclown.

False af

>no loading screens for interiors
I think loading screens did a good job in TW1 adding to the atmosphere through voice effects, music and comfy paintings, do you think their lack is a plus or a negative?

I only played 2's 360 port before playing 3 and I loved the game.

i liked the game, but lets be real, the combat is by far the most lacking part of the game

When Cyberpunk releases we'll have four years of ass pain from that as well.

I love it when the AI does this. It's almost as good as the absurd places Roach will sometimes wind up appearing.

You're playing on easy and it's the first boss in the game. Just shows how utterly retarded you are.

Sure, but to claim it's downright bad is just simply not true.

the difficulty doesnt change a damn thing
Dragons Dogmas combat is way better, Kingdom Comes combat is also better

It’s actually not underrated, it’s a copypasta that gets posted in every single thread. I love it too, but everybody’s seen it at this point, so nobody really replies anymore.

Still better than any other open world game by quite a distance. BotW had utterly horrendous combat yet nobody talks about it

It's okay when Nintendo does it.

Lol dumbass. These are the people that don't like TW3

Sekiro is an action-adventure game..
It has very little role playing elements.
If you said dark souls, that’d be different.
Probably bait anyways.

Has a 3d zelda game ever had anything resembling good combat? I don't get why people like them so much more than the 2D ones.

first of all, i didnt claim that
second, its pretty bad
Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen, Kingdome Come: Deliverance
those come to mind instantly
yes, BOTW combat is terrible as well, but you also barely have to fight in that game anyway, thats why it wasnt as apparent for me

>Why does nobody ever praise the combat?

I thought it was fun and more than serviceable for a game that brings so much more to the table. I'm not looking solely for great combat when I play a game like TW3. If I wanted that I'd play something which has a complete focus on the combat being intricate and skill-based. I can't name an example because generally those kinds of games bore the fuck out of me.

This reminds me of when people try to discuss combat in any series and the Devil May Cry fags come out of the woodwork to try and explain why every game needs DMC combat for some reason. Same with Souls fags. Now, I like Dark Souls quite a bit, but, again, I'm not looking for Dark Souls in The Witcher. Why the hell would I be?

>Has a 3d zelda game ever had anything resembling good combat?
I thought Wind Waker had pretty interesting combat, but I didn't play much of it. I was just struck by how much better than OOT it was. Probably doesn't hold up for long.

As bad as that can be, it's better than the archaic Japanese 3D combat.
>lock on target
>roll & jump with invulnerability frames
>spam attack until the bar says you can't anymore
>roll away
Every fucking game from the nips. When will people see they cannot innovate anything good and just recycle the same shitty systems developed in the 90s?
At least when you become competent in Witcher or older Assassins games you not only did cooler things but could take on more enemies confidently. Japanese games just make you cheese their old gameplay to win.

I didn't thought about comparing DD to TW3.
DD surely has interesting combat with unique elements but personally i find it a bit stiff and clunky in some aspects.
For me combat in Witcher is much better, even if it has some annoying limitations. Maybe it's a matter of preferences, DD surely stands out in its own way.

strength and poise mainly
first webm uses fuckretarded amounts of poise and the black knight's halberd, literally the strongest weapon in the game for its ease of use and acquireability
second webm uses black knight's greatsword and really good timings, probably took a decent amount of practice but that boss is also super early
third webm i've never played dks2, looks like a claymore with asstons of poise, probably fully upgraded
fourth webm is using a glitch to moveset swap the bonewheel shield's spinny move with the great clubs damage, a speedrunning tactic that one-shots i think everything in the game

Daily reminder that if you say The Witcher is a good series, you are also saying that Fallout 4 was a good game.

Have you even played gothic? It's nothing like gothic

Should have said combat. It's gameplay has much more to it than just fighting which is really its only lackluster part.

I agree with you there, I absolutely loved the loading screen art in 1 and they definitely helped build a comfy atmosphere. I think a big part of it was that the paintings helped you imagine what the world was supposed to look like if it wasn't held back by dated graphics. The lack of loading screens in 3 was both a "wow cool this is what games are finally capable of" and a way to make the whole world feel connected and real. Walking into a little farmhouse and seeing the light streaming through the cracks in the walls and looking out a window to see the whole world was so much more immersive than entering a sterile interior cell with no connection to the outside world. It really added a lot for me and was what made me feel like it was a next gen game, much more so than the pretty graphics. Unfortunately the only other games I've played that do the seamless interiors are Kingdom Come and AC Odyssey but I still have hope that it'll become the standard.
So yes, while W1 loading screens still have a place in my heart I love the lack of them in 3

Taste this bad should be illegal.

to be fair, skellige is the point where its the most intuitive to drop the game. i visited every question mark in the areas before skellige and i almost quit in skellige too because it was so fucking annoying to fucking sail all over the place

the combat in DD is better than TW3s in every single perceivable way

see The Witcher is just as bad as Fallout 4.

This is a double standards regularly paraded around on Yea Forums and I'm ending it here, The Witcher commits all the same sins as Fallout 4, but because it's not Bethesda it gets praise.

CDProjekt is about to shit out an even WORSE game than The Witcher 3, and projektards will continue to praise it and claim that everyone who hates it for the right reasons is a shill, butthurt, or something.

Just like The Witcher.

Texture popping and awful rendering are missing in Witcher 3

At least the dialogue in TW3 felt like actual people talking. FO4 just felt like speaking to a fucking cleverbot or some shit like that.

You haven't played FO4 then.
Give it 130 hours or so.

>Which is...?
Read before you reply, I already said to see >For me those games are very different and in their common elements W3 is crushingly better.
Your own version of reality is irrelevant.

You're god damn right I'm seething, The Witcher is fucking dogshit, there wasn't a single game nominated worthy of winning an award, TW3 got it PURELY because it has the biggest graphics.

TW3 is dogshit
Fo4 is dogshit
Bloodborne is dogshit
MGSV is dogshit
LIS is dogshit

Die in a fire projektard.

How is this a scapegoat? You were literally comparing FO4 and TW3, thats exactly what I did, nigger.

>How is this a scapegoat? You were literally comparing FO4 and TW3, thats exactly what I did, nigger.
Because you're trying to shift the focus onto Fo4, while I am just comparing them.

No I wanna hear your own opinions, not Yea Forums's

I don't think there's a single professional game review in the world stating that TW3 and F4 are anyhow similar or at close level.
It means something.

You replied to yourself lmao.
I didn't shift shit, I was making a point as of why the dialogue in TW3 is better than in FO4. Stop using words you don't know the meaning of.

>I didn't shift shit, I was-
Denying it doesn't make it better.

Took me less than a mimute to find an article in spanish about how similar they are.
It's 3Dgames though, so wear a condom.

Always makes me feel older every summer when the kids roll in and think they're the first ones to ironically shitpost.

Gib link, I can't find it.

it was more fun in the beginning of this, when you actually had points. but alright. at least you only used easy to understand words (and you did use them all correctly too)

Because it has a good story for a video game. That's it. Its gameplay is complete trash.

>calling him a summerfag when it's Reddit summerfags who say have sex to begin with
Go back.

Fallout and the Witcher series are different games. People shit on Fallout because it abandoned what made it Fallout and tried to turn it into a shitty Witcher/Bioware knock off. It's the same reason no one is bitching about any random FPS not offering you the same range of choices as Deus Ex. Everyone is fine with different types of games existing. They aren't fine with games being gutted so they can be more like everything else. You'd understand this if your weren't retarded.

edgy lord of the rings

Since W1 the whole point of combat was to find out about the monster's weakness and exploit at least one of them. It never was so much about the combat mechanics.

that wouldve worked better in TW3 if any of the fights were actually hard. you could play through the whole game on death march without any armor at all just because quen was so overpowered. and youd still shred every mob there is even without decotions

>your weren't retarded.
>your
oh the irony

yeah fuck you

Quen shield was stupid broken and if you us it on Death March, it defeats the purpose of playing on that difficulty.

I think Witcher 2 looked a little better than 3 in most cases.

The absolute state of Yea Forums.

the existence of quen defeats the purpose of having difficulty levels at all. they just shouldve made it that quen wont block all of the damage, but just a percentage. that would balance the game a lot

witcher is great, and is a perfect example of Yea Forums contrarianism. the burning desire to contradict what is conventional makes them say stupid stuff sometimes.

"intellectually busy". maybe I just didn't want to call millions of people stupid

I played and finished all of Witcher 3 recently, its fucking great.
What the fuck is wrong with the School of the Cat tho?

I still play TW3, but I roleplay. I pick a village or something with some sort of structure I can use as my home that's cozy, and I RP as a retired Witcher living a quiet life, usually hunting deer or making potions and stuff.
I turn off all hud, and wear only civilian gear. Still trying to find the best outfit for a civilian, the "shirt" is great but I'm unsure of trousers.

Actually it's "shut the fuck up FAGGOT".

Shut the fuck up faggot.

>hates 3

this has to be bait or you are brain damaged as fuck

>RP as a retired Witcher living a quiet life
Why not just do that in Blood and Wine?

I am playing TW1 right now. Is just me or the dialogues can be hard to follow?

>literally cant die

Toussaint > Skellige > Novigrad >>> Velen

I did for a bit, I roleplayed as a newly promoted Knight of Touissant. I'd typically wear the Ducal Captain's Armour or whatever and patrol the city and the like, and it gave me an excuse to go hunt the odd beast. I'd keep fancy civilian clothes, too.
However I find RPing as a retired witcher in Velen comfier because the weather is shittier. Nothing like chilling inside a cabin while the storm is outside.

>10 crowns received
Whats funny is that the game really does pull bullshit like this. Complete an hour long quest and receive fucking nothing for it.
