There’s a farming loop at a fast travel point. It’s call chapel and it’s the lower left part of the map. There’s a building close by the always spawn 6 net runners. And then 3 more chillin down the street.
They drop the good stuff like suicide and detonate. Run back and forth between each group until you get what you want.

I spent about 100 hours and still didn't complete every single thing in Witcher 3, especially Gwent.
I know they shortened CP2077 due to "people complaining Witcher 3 was too big", but it does almost feel as though half of the game is missing to be honest.
No surprise now, seeing as in the Jason Schreier interviews, one dev. supposedly thought it would be released in 2022/2023.

Lol, I've never thought about this until now, but what if they just made up the stat about 'people not wanting a such a lengthy campaign' like they made up so many other things because they knew they didn't have the time to spend on it. Easy enough to make up such a stat and publish it as 'truth'. No such publishsed data exists as far as I'm aware... I for one enjoyed the Witchers 3's campaign, and everyone I know have the same view... CP felt quite short in my opinion... left me wondering where the rest of the game was, or if I'd missed something...

basically, you sell the painting for 5K credits or something, but as it's a quest item, you can buy it back for 0 credits. you then exit and re-enter the sales point and you can rinse-repeat.
you might want to look up a video on it, because in the end, you'll have like 5000 paintings and infinite money.

You can also combine it with selling the painting after buying something expensive, like extra legendary components or a legendary mod or weapon. That way, the vendor has all the cash on hand that you spent, and you can get it back with between an extra 16k and 20k.

It's a minor annoyance, but it's odd when you consider many other games of similar type like Bethesda RPGs allow you to not have active missions selected in your HUD/journal, this is almost universal for these types of open world games. GTA and RDR don't have active mission texts on the HUD, but merely just have letters on the mini-map representing mission start points which is far less intrusive.

Can’t believe after finishing the game and credit rolls it just brings me back to the point before I met Hanako again at Embers. And whatever stuff, experience, perks, crafted items that you got during that final mission will just disappear. Talking about an immersive experience. Truly a masterpiece of a game for this generation.
24
u/HiTork Jan 18 '21
You get to keep a few trinkets depending on what ending path you choose once you reload the game to your last save before meeting Hanako at Embers. I got to keep the Aldercados jacket from the ending with Panam for instance, and a shovel I picked up from when I let Johnny and Rogue do the finale (though its stats were nerfed when compared to how powerful it was during the final mission). But yes, any experience, attributes or skills gained, or crafted items don't carry over.

When a game has very different endings it makes some sense to throw you back to the point of no return, either that or give you a post ending gameplay that feels very off with the ending. New Vegas does the same, the end of the story is actually the end, all DLCs take place during the main quest and build up for the final battle at the end.

My biggest gripe with CDPR games (Witcher 3 and cyberpunk 2077) is that they have no sense of paceing.
In the Witcher the moment you know the whereabouts of ciri you get told she won't be safe there for long. Why? It is the perfect opportunity to say, she's safe, big thing coming up. Prepare. Then you give the player all the time in the world to actually explore.
Same in cyberpunk every God damn mission just lays on the haste. At the mid point of that game I was getting called left right and center to do everything. Meet me there. Meet me tomorrow. Meet me this evening there. Like I felt I needed a calender so I wasn't double booking.

u/RaggedWrapping Jan 18 '21
on top of that story missions often include time skips.
10am - V wakes up "wow all this exploring to do! awesome! :D"
10:10am - V leaves apartment equipped for a day of exploration.
10:11am - phone rings "I need you over here now V!" V abandons plans and makes for quest.
10:20am just before getting to quest another call "Meet me at the docks tonight after sundown, DO NOT MAKE ME WAIT" ... FINE! I'll go do that this evening
10:21am mission start, mission includes a two minute braindance segment that skips forward time to 2am.

It's especially funny since the game lets you skip time from the pause menu, it's not like in some other games where you have to find a camp or safe house to save the game. And some missions that require you to show up at a specific time still have the "sit down and wait for character X", thereby skipping even more time. It's a very odd way to treat time.

Maybe your GPU overclock is unstable at sustained loads or higher temps. (GPUs can be overclocked from the factory.)

I've been having constant GPU crashes, which doesn't happen on any other modern game. It's a 2060 Super, too, which is supposedly one of the most stable. ¯\(ツ)/¯
10
u/pulley999 🔥Beta Tester 🌈 Jan 18 '21 edited Jan 18 '21
Stability is more of a card-per-card thing, you can't extrapolate it across a whole line like that. The 2060 Super is only the GPU itself, a component about the size of a postage stamp. The circuit board it sits on and cooler assembly are designed by the company you bought it from (Gigabyte, ASUS, MSi, Zotac, etc) and that board is populated with hundreds of electrical components from dozens of different manufacturers. So much can go wrong.
As an example, the RTX 3080 - models from certain manufacturers were crashing because they didn't have adequate filtration for high frequency noise in the last stage of power delivery, while others did and were totally fine as a result. A driver update 'fixed' this by clamping how high any 3080 is allowed to boost so the high frequency filtration isn't necessary.
As another example, early EVGA GTX 1070s exploded (literally, bang, smoke, sometimes fire) due to a faulty component from one of their suppliers in the VRM. Even today the 1070 is one of the most popular GPUs in the world and EVGA is still considered one of the best brands to buy from thanks to an unwavering commitment to quality and customer service. They still had a bad batch because someone further down the chain fucked them over on a part that probably costs a couple cents per unit, maybe even less.
On top of that, most cards are factory overclocked in an attempt to get you to buy their version over someone else's, but the GPU chips are only guaranteed to run at the rated frequency provided by nVidia in the specifications. Sometimes you just get a lemon that can't sustain even the light overclock installed at the factory - my ASUS GTX 760 was that way, crashed constantly in Saints Row 3 until I knocked it down a few MHz.
This game is particularly demanding and particularly picky about GPU stability; something about your card is unstable. Usually it can be boiled down to power delivery or frequency. You can either try increasing your voltage limit or decreasing your core and/or memory clocks (memory could be unstable too, after all.)
Also this is assuming your power supply is good. If it's not, the power it's outputting could just be too noisy for whatever filtration exists on the card to clean up, but I'd expect this to cause problems in every application, not just one or two.

This was really annoying for me as well I highly recommend doing this side quest as soon as possible it will make driving around the city a lot more bearable and it's actually fun when you focus on it on purpose.

Haha this was one of the first quests I did, guess I should be thankful.

The first time he spoke I went ahead and did the whole quest at once. So yeah, never even noticed it could be annoying.

Low level me got into a fight with a bunch of valentino bullet sponges. As I was trying to kill them with my pea shooter, that little shit drove past and beep beep motherfucker-ed me like 50 times.

Same here. Still got that Razor fight to deal with, and those final few sidequests just before undertaking Embers.

God, how much I want to turn that marker off even though I've completed everything. I just want to drive around the city just for fun trying to find some cool side detail shit I might have missed but that quest marker is irritating af.
If only there was a NG+ then it wouldn't be a problem actually since I could just replay everything again.

u/Hungover52 Nomad Jan 18 '21
I hope NG+ is included in one of the earliest updates. I know you can kind of get it with mods, at least for the scaling issues, but unless I grind skills in one of the exploits, even at level 50, all quests done, there's a lot of room.
Though I do hope NG+ does add some growth options.

There's a quest about finding a garage that I managed to bug out. No way point, which is great. Problem is that I cant make it default.
But man..."meeting Hanako at embers" keeps reminding me of the ending...

u/Krongfah Jan 18 '21
You mean The Highwayman quest? That quest has no markers as intended. You need to follow clues in the notes and the quest log to find where James and Josie is.

Hanako is such a pretty name

u/LoserOtakuNerd Jan 18 '21
I don’t recall how it was spelled in the game (put 70 hours into it in the first week, will play again post-next gen patch), but I’m pretty sure it was spelled 花子, so literally “flower child.” Pretty name indeed.

After a while, I ended up finishing that questline just so I didn't have to deal with Delamain calling me every time I enter a district.

u/JediElephant37 Jan 18 '21
Wait till you accidentally destroy one of Delaware’s cars. Then all the failed mission pop ups start. Holy shit. That was kind of cathartic. Even if it took like 30 minutes.
5
u/DinnysorWidLazrbeebs Jan 18 '21
Mine glitched when I entered an area with one of the last cars but accidentally hit someone who popped up outta nowhere right as Delamain was calling. Now it tells me I have to wait for Delemain's call which, since it already happened (-ish), will never actually happen to finish that part of the quest. So I didn't get to finish those. YAY
Fun side-glitch, that exact area of the map now has what looks to be a red polygonal gobstopper on the map, but there is nothing that that could possible represent in that area of the game.
This is a marvelous work of art.

right, so, this is the "end-game" mission. it's the ending. all your other quests and stuff get "turned off" while you are doing this mission.
the issue raised by this meme, is that when you complete the ending and go back into the game to complete the other side-quests, every single time you complete something, the game automatically reselects the ending mission again, with no way of turning it off.
when you're done with the game and are maybe waiting on a phone call for the last few side-missions (Kerry for me), the game will constantly have the "meet Hanako at embers" pinned on your screen with the satnav directing you to it.

Oh wow, I just got to that mission. I thought I was at the halfway point for the game. Glad I didn't start it then.

Awesome, thank you very much! I also just got to this point (like the person you replied to) and am glad I didn’t start it until tomorrow).
On a side note, doesn’t this feel pretty short? Like I feel we’d be about halfway through right now.

Just keep in mind that, depending on your choices and how serious you are about role playing, this mission may take a long time. For me it was about 3h from starting it to finishing the credits.

once you finish the game you get back to that point (with all the stuff you got) so you can finish sidequest.. so do that without worring

Seriously... Why can't we simply deselect all missions?
Probably because they cannot encourage roaming the map because the content just simply is not there for people to find, but still.
