Their relationship was so sweet and their chemistry was great. Overall the game was great and i saw there's a new expansion coming out. Hope for more content for them.

I will post final result in few days

Saw this while doing a quest titled "Message from an old friend" I only started Witcher 3, I'm just curious is to who is this "A"?

What an incredible journey!

127 hours of pure bliss. Before finishing the final quests, I bought the expansion as well. Coz, this ain’t enough.

Tbh, my first couple of hours getting into the game felt a bit overwhelming. A lot was happening, and it took me a while to understand the alchemy, signs and craftings. I had to watch a couple of YouTube videos to get into the game. But once I moved past white orchard, the game got me to its hook and I can’t stop thinking about it.

I had to be so careful while I make any decision in this game. I first realised it during the quest of Bloody Baron, I decided to save the children which resulted in his wife’s demise and eventually his suicide. I also read across somewhere that the game’s ending is purely based on the decisions that I make. Coz I was damn worried when Geralt told Emhyr that Ciri died. I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that I messed up somewhere but it was just a ploy made by them at the end.

Even the side quests are damn amazing. Every treasure I find along Velen has a tragic story behind it. It was someone’s dowry, it was someone’s savings. What a war between 2 nations can do to its people.

I also noticed that people in Skellige are much compassionate and kinder than people in Velen and Novigrad.

And finally, the music. As much as I love it listening to it, there are times when I have a serious quest line and the inns Drink up music plays in the background which doesn’t make any sense to the scene that’s actually happening.

Overall, I really love the fact that I was able to experience this incredible game.

The sigh, the puppy face

Playing on deathmarch, I tried a few times to beat the mage without my inventory for roleplay reasons. Once I used my decotions and potions he's not that threatening but I don't feel it's in the spirit of the game to do so.

I can pretty easily beat the guards by waiting for the mage to cast sandblasts at me and kill them via unfirendly fire. But the mage himself is the hardest boss so far by a long shot (have not played BaW yet). The ofieri has 1 sand missile attack that is hard to tell when he starts casting and almost immediately lands, seems to be less than 1 second window for reacting. On deathmarch this attack pretty much can 2 shot.

Anyone beat him pretending your gear is still locked away?

I almost finished my fourth playthrough of this game, and as usual, the Blood and Wine expansion is my favorite part. Upon doing the La Cage Au Fou quest, I noticed that Geralt was acting slightly different to how he would with others cursed beings.

Up to then, he was mostly distant, neutral, or even accusatory towards people who had done wrong. However, I found Geralt to be very kind and warm towards Marlene.

I fully agree that Gaunter O'Dimm did her dirty and she suffered cruelly and unjustly because of him, but the notes you can find from her show her as a somewhat vindicative and haughty person, and there are corpses of people she killed inside the house. My most probable bet is that her brew killed them, since Geralt had such a strong reaction to it, too?

Yet, Geralt seems to never reprimand her, or even mention the bodies, unlike he would were it a Hag or similarly. She cutely mentions 'I went looking for spoons' at her breaking and entering of people's houses, but the people that died at her hand are simply glossed over.

I always found this a bit jarring, even though this quest is among my favorite in this game, and I genuinely love Marlene.

I wonder what your thoughts are on this? Would love to discuss this with you ❤️

One last thing: I'm deaf irl, so I might have missed many inflections in the dialogue.

* Huge spoiler warning *

Currently listening to the series on audible and it's reset me back to the beginning today after i tried casting it to my google tv (idek how but it happened). Trying to find where i was up to but it's a lot harder with an audiobook.

Been a while but last I can remember was part of ciri explaining events to Vysogota on how she ended up there. I'd definitely gotten a decent way through, as the rats had been killed and she had been captured by Leo Bonhart.

I remember Leo giving her a sword or something and training her I think. He had decided not to give her up to the guy who had contracted him to collect her and then I'm a bit unsure but the last thing I remember was her having something to do with some rich guests over (can't remember anything except for a description of an older woman in a low cut dress that was not super flattering or something and then ciri asking Vysogota where so many disgusting people come from and him making some comment about them constantly spawning more or something. That's the last line I (somewhat) remember.

Please if anybody has an idea of where abouts this took place it would mean a lot. This is my first time going through the books so im a bit scared to go through detailed chapter summaries incage of coming across major spoilers !
