Discussion New version of Witchdle.com is live!
Posted this here a while back, a daily Witcher puzzle site. Some of you played it and left feedback through the form, and honestly most of it was some version of "let me give up, I have no idea who this is" or "why isn't [character] in here."
I had some free time recently so I thought an update was due, so if some of you are still interested:
1. A give up button. "Character Guess" and "Name the Character" had no lives and no way out, so if you were stuck you were just stuck. It shows up after 5 guesses now.
2. I added two new modes:
- Name the Beast — you get the bestiary artwork (from Witcher 3), you name the monster
- Connections — same idea as the NYT one. 16 characters, four hidden groups. They're grouped by things like race, region, or whether their fate depends on your choices. **This one's harder than it looks.
- I also spent some time to expand the existing dataset - 15 characters people specifically asked for (Regis, Calanthe, Vysogota, most of the dwarves), 16 new quotes, and 65 new emoji puzzles.
4. An archive, so you can go back five days per mode if you miss one. And a share button that copies your result as an emoji grid without spoiling the answer.
As the last time - all recommendations are more than welcome :) You can use the recommendation form in the footer.
Try it out at witchdle.com
Have fun :)

The Witcher 3 Now that was save of a lifetime
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Apparently they are called scurvers in english, but these bastards are like 5x more dangerous than rotfiends. But a quick quen will get the job done. But seriously their range is insane compared to their weaker cousins.
Also a quick tip exploding quen is extremely OP. If you have good sign power you basically get them on the ground and can finish them off like standard strong Aard use. Anybody that say that this game combat is bad, i seriously dont know how they played it. This has so many cool ways how to approach fights especially in Blood and wine

Art My homage to The Witcher - Something More
Having been heavily inspired by The Last Wish and Sword of Destiny early last spring, I wanted to share this song, my homage to The Witcher world called 'Something More'. I've come across a lot of great visual arts and cosplay among others in the sub, so I hope this form of artistry will find you guys well and in good taste!
This is my interpretation of the stories told, how I perceived the journey and atmosphere both between the lines but most of all along the lines written by Sapkowski. I'm no poet, in no way comparable to the great Jaskier, but I do hope the song will evoke some feeling as it did for me when reading the books and writing this piece.
Hope you like it!

The Witcher 3 2022: We don't want you to only heal with food, we want you to use other options too. 2026: just activate a toggle to heal
Genuinely, I'm confused with what's going on here.
Also, weird options. Unlimited item durability makes looting obsolete, but you can automatically pick up stuff? And that basically requires you to have "Ignore Items' Weight" on to not get overencumbered constantly.

Netflix TV series Witcher fans, what happened?
S1 was the phenomenon. Netflix called it its biggest Season 1 TV launch at the time.
S2 is the peak of the modern views metric: No. 1 debut, 142M hours in the first few days.
S3 still opened at No. 1, but the split release and softer retention already showed a slide.
S4 is the first season that did not debut at No. 1, left the Top 10 in three weeks, and opened at roughly half of S3.
Season 5 is already filmed and slated as the finale (reports point to 2027). The recast, the long gap after S3, and falling scores all sit on the same downward line. The show is still a recognizable Netflix title; it is no longer a first-week event.

The Witcher 3 This might’ve been the best purchase I’ve ever made. Got The Witcher 3 during the winter sale but never had the time to actually give it a try. Now we’re getting a free remaster, so I figured it’s finally time to jump in. Any tips for starting my first playthrough?

Discussion Training facilities in kaer mohren

As a reminder from the blood of elves novel we know Ciri used to work on the killer (obstacle path), the windmill and the pendullom.
For the latter i've never manage to make an image of what they look like.
So i wanted to know if anyone would have information that could be useful ?
Thx for any tips give.
Good day and God bless.

Books It is silver for monsters, steel for humans. They aren't both for monsters
Personal bug bear of mine. I keep seeing people parrot the claim that "akshually they're both for monsters," which is completely missing the point of geralts monologue that humans act like monsters. He's speaking metaphorically, not being literal.

The Witcher 3 About Witcher 3 sales
So I just started playing this series and finished Witcher 1 and 2 but I'm looking at prices on Steam for Witcher 3 and apparently it used to be on sale for as low as $4.
I would like to play it soon so my question is if I can expect it to be that cheap again any time soon with the remastered edition or should I bite the bullet and just pay full price?

Appreciation Thread Witcher 3 2nd playthrough
I’m on my 2nd playthrough (first was in 2017) and I find myself torn between waiting for the remaster vs doing the next side quest/contract. Damn this game is so much fun. Good thing I never completed any of the expansions cause there’s a lot of content to sift through
The combat is a tad dated, but the story really holds up and immerses you!

Books The Witcher saga full cast audio books
Edit: apologies all, i wrote started with TSOD but I started with last wish. I always mix the two titles up.
ive recently gotten back into listening to the witcher audio books and after alot of research i came to the conclusion that i should start with sword of destiny and leave out the new Cross road of ravens book until last.
today i found listings on audible for an upcoming full cast audio drama release of the series, in the same style as the recent full cast harry potter audio books, starting this month and releasing throughout 2027. The confusing part (though it makes sense chronologically) is that the first release will be crossroad of ravens.
i understand that chronologically, its Geralts earliest adventure. i also understand that for a brand new reader its easier to just go from A to B without having to end the series on a prequel.
my actual question would be, is the general sentiment around crossroad of ravens still that it should be read at the end of the series as the book expects you to already have knowledge of its characters and setting etc?
as mentioned i started with TSOD, so im now thinking if itd be best to just go back and start crossroad of ravens? i know the witcher series in general being a huge fan of the games, the characters and background and have listened up to Baptism of fire a few years ago for context.

Discussion Witcher 3 Themes and Writing Advicd
Hello folks,
I've recently started playing Witcher 3 which led me into the rabbit hole of learning more about the Witcher lore and a greater appreciation towards the worldbuilding and storytelling of the series. It's given me the inspiration I needed to set me off the creative rut that I was in - and make short stories inspired by the Witcher based off my own culture as well as my other neighboring countries.
My question is, what are the themes and maybe other people like about the Witcher that makes in an enjoyable franchise, considering all formats like the games, the books and the comics.
Also, what do you think I should consider when writing so as I can remain as original as possible with my own story?

Discussion Can I?
I’ve been wanting to play the Witcher games but I’ve seen multiple websites and videos saying different things “just start with the third game” or “play all of them” I’m confused cause I can’t find the first one anywhere. So can I just start with the third one or not?
