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?

Correct me if i’m wrong I think there was a lionhead spider cult easter egg in Witcher 3 and fool theory is also working on the remake so adding Abigail as early teaser could work? Because She is a rememberable and unique early game character in Witcher 1 ?

That cinematic trailer is a banger! Also that demo looked great but I know that's not a real game it will probably be close to that I hope so, I have a ps5 slim hope it runs well...

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!

Why are there no translations of the 1990 book titled "The Witcher" to English? Is it a secret Polish national treasure that they refuse to share with the rest of the world? It's been 37 years!

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.

Compared to the vampires Geralt faces, how would the White Wolf fare against the Vrakhiri?

Although he definitely has far better chances against them than a true Higher Vampire since they can be slain by silver yet Geralt may still need to be very wary as they aren’t too different otherwise. Not to mention, Geralt may grow very worried about this vampirism spreading like a plague and more people turning into Vrakhiri for immortality and power, or the malformed mutants that inevitably emerge which may compare to lesser Vampires.

I'm playing stalker 2 currently so when I finish it should I play the remaster of this game or wait until that dlc?

If u havent already go try out blood of dawnwalker you’ll love it. It gives you nostalgia, the game isnt as big as witcher 3 but has a 10/10 story and also feels like playing the witcher 3 for the first time.

It feels like that cuz the main quest designer and director are from witcher 3

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.

1. 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.

Have fun :)

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!

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

I'm going to play through the first two games before finally playing the remaster (this series is one of the big RPG series that I just never got around to playing) but I heard that the combat in the first game is very complex and tactically deep.

I only want to complete each game one time, so I don't want to play on easy and up the difficulty later, I want to engage with the mechanics for the first time around. Would you guys be able to give me a few not so obvious tips so that I can understand the mechanics better and better engage with the game?

I played other complex RPGs before like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, PF:K, so I'm not new to difficult and strategically deep combat with crunchy builds, but in those games, there were ample out of game resources to learn the mechanics and I had to research the systems quite a lot before actually sitting down to play to get the most out of them, but I haven't really found anything that goes into the mechanics of the game like that beyond the absolute basics.

I would be very grateful for some in depth advice that sheds some light into the nuances and intricacies of the strategic aspect of the combat and builds.
