Mole_Toonfan Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Pre load is a trolling mother fucker, got the patch and the whole game downloaded but when i go to click it the countdown comes up It sits there looking at me like " fuck you you aint playing shit " Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Any good summaries of 1 & 2 knocking about? Was going to try and fly through 2, but can't be arsed going back to the 360. To add to what Andy posted, this infographic is pretty decent in terms of explaining the story and the lore in general. http://abload.de/img/witcher_recaps9smg.png Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 For those who are getting this and haven't played Witcher 2 ( and don't plan on doing so ) You might want to watch this At the beginning of the game you are asked questions about decisions made in Witcher 2, which is how they effect the world state and carries the decisions over. Without actually playing it, you wouldn't have a clue what they are asking you. So basically explains what the decisions were and how they effected the world in general.

Mike Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 How's the combat? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 How's the combat? Much better than last time, definitely a lot more responsive and smooth. Seems a bigger emphasis on dodging, parrying and rolling than last time as well as a bigger emphasis on the magic. Although I expect it to improve further as I have hardly upgraded anything yet.

Mike Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 How so? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Just there's a massive amount of Bombs, Oils, Potions and other stuff like that you can make which effect various different things. A lot more than the Witcher 2 did anyway, it's just a lot more of a factor and fleshed out. Also it's all in real time so you could do it in a middle of a fight if you wanted to. Probably not advisable though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nattfare Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Took some work but I've finally managed to make the game have Polish voices while the rest of the game is in English. Played the previous games like this too as it felt more genuine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Seeing as I couldn't get into Dragon Age: Inquisition (gave up after about an hour) should I avoid this? Hearing the guys on the Giant Bombcast say it's a cross between Red Dead Redemption and Skyrim has got me interested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
