The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt |OT2| Wanted to find Ciri, but everything Gwent wrong

If you actually block the blows it would start hitting your stamina, but just tapping the block as a swing comes will deflect the attack and leave them open. Doesn't matter what kind of strike they use, they always are left open.
I'm not the biggest fan around, but holy shit yes an online Gwent minigame would be a killer app. The more I play Gwent the more I like it.
Seriously start parrying more. It becomes crazy easy once you get the timing right.
Assassin's Creed Unity did this so right.
At any time you could hold R3 and the HUD would turn off almost entirely (everything except on-screen objective dot which is 100% useful and not in the way). Hold R3 to turn it back on.
And if you popped into the menu you could set HUD immediately and easily from 'All' to 'Limited' to 'Off'. So great. Masterpiece of a game with HUD off. Totally playable. They even added a mechanic where points of interest nearby are highlighted when you stand still on a rooftop. So even with the HUD off you can functionally find things in the open world. Just brilliant.
Ahhhh who is it? I've 6 trophys and don't want to sell them for cheap. D:
need some help here, found an icon on the minimap in velen that isnt on the list of things when you open the map, spoiler-tagging just in case.
was headed to do the myster of byways murders when i ran into a griffin. I killed him and looted him, next to his dead body was an icon of what..looks like a sharingan from naruto, rofl, its like 3 swirls put together. When I go into witcher mode i see the icon for igni under the ground but i can't find a way to get to it, anyone run into this?
She said "I'd like it if you stopped by" in my conversation, not so much "come help me with stuff". Geralt responded with "that'd be nice", pretty much.
I dunno if that all depends on branching dialogue paths and such, though.
I saw the exact same thing and my conclusion was that
it's the portals you use in the "Wandering in the Dark" or whatever quest, the one with Keira. The swirls are below you, underground.
I heard that certain side quests can get locked if you progress the story too far without finishing them.
Wonder if there is a list of the ones that do that.........

Hold on what? I thought you could only loot items from enemies/chests (ie one way), I did not realise there was a way to bring up the UI to add items into chests (ie 2 way)... how the hell do you do this?
EDIT - I think this rumour has gone through the chinese whisper millI think originally the tip was "you can leave your items in any house", not specifically in a chest. I think it means you can drop your items on the floor in a house, and they wont dissappear... I do not trust this though! I feel safer selling mine to a single vendor TBH.
You can drop things and they will stay there. I use the abandoned village with the well in White Orchard to store my books. It's my own library with books still there from 47+ hours ago.
Hmm, makes sense. thanks!
On the outskirts of novigrad in the upper right, there's a secluded building by the river(I think it's a graveyard or something) with a guy inside who buys everything for full value. I'm not sure if it's intentional though, lol.

Does anyone know if iorveth or saskia are in the game?
Incredible tip - does he buy everything at full value, not just trophies?!

Anyone else find it funny that there is only one set of animations for sex scenes? Even Witcher 2 had a few different sets.

or roche?
I ran into letho on a completely unrelated side-quest though, that was really cool
god damn this game is addicting. it's a natural evolution from the first two games. nothing was lost in their transition to a more open world.
Yup, even giving him books I've gotten around 60 for some of them. He has 500 gold so he can get sucked dry pretty fast though. I'd need to double check if he can buy crossbow bolts since I have a hell of a time getting rid of those, but normal weapons also work fine.
Yeah I just dropped all my crossbow bolts.
I forget, can we meditate a certain amount of time to reset NPC budgets? Preferably without conseqeuence.
Or did you?
I have no idea. The only quest I've taken up in Novigrad so far involves tasting some dumplings

This OT and OT2 have been some of the best to ever grace GAF in my opinion: well done guys!
In Witching news: 20 hours deep and only just finishing my first story quests in Velen.... this is going to take a while!

Question for people who have beaten the main story:
**SPOILERS**
**SPOILERS OVER**
Thanks in advance.
**SPOILERS**
I'm at the point where I can go to the Isle of Mists to get Ciri, I got a prompt saying that some quests will no longer be available if i carry on.
Is this just the Brothers in Arms quests that they're talking about? Because I've done those and recruited everyone.
Any other quests that I could miss?

Crazy. How quickly does his money regenerate? And does it do so at the same rate for all merchant NPCs?
Is growing a badass beard a consequence you want to avoid?
Regarding a serious answer to your question: I don't have one.
Interesting Thank you, time to crush Skelliges fight clubs.

guys, were do you find the quests to get the Urisne armour and the enhanced ursine armour?
Struggling to find them!

That stuff has been a little wonky for me, so not totally sure. Sometimes it wouldn't let me even talk to him and I had to meditate in front of him for an hour and he would be restocked, other times he still had no gold. But that's happened to me with other NPCs anyway.

Ah yes the most poetic line I've ever heard in a video game,
"Lambert Lambert what a prick.
Apparently he regenerates 125 crowns every 5 days.... up to a maximum of 500. So if you have lots to sell, you are going to have to meditate a lot

What level do I need for the bear set ? I found the upgraded one and that is for level 27. Now I am rocking with the upgraded griffin set for level 15 ( I am level 18).

Holy fuck, like 5 levels for no reason progressing through the main story. wtf
Apparently not, sadly.
Huge loss since they were pretty improtant, but what can you do. Expansions maybe.

I think I've found something about the game I hate.
The water. When sailing around the Skellige isles during a thunderstorm and heavy wind the sea should not be calm. This is the calmest body of water I've ever seen ever. Reeeeally unnatural. I can understand maybe no waves close to the boat for gameplay and rendering reasons but not even on the horizon! It's bullshit!
Also, I saw a lone long boat out at sea but it was past the "I can't go there because reasons" limit and I've not seen another boat past that line. It's weird. I want to go there. Also I saw a ship (ship ship, not a dingy) and it had the boat icon but there was no little boat I could ride.

I did the
quest last night. The story was well told and I was very interested in seeing the conclusion.
Tower of Rats
Unfortunately this ghost whore turned out to be a Pesta and fucked up the island? I saw a dialogue option where I could choose not to believe her. Did anyone get a different ending or does she always end up killing the guy in his house?

Ay particular area? I imagine I must have just missed it
Errrrrrrrrrr Isle of Mists spoilers need help
Quoting myself Incase I get a answer >.< don't want to miss out on quests.
It says some quests will become unavailable? Fuck did anyone notice anything missing? I haven't done every quest yet just really want to see where the story goes, but I don't wanna not see a quest because of it.
The merchant you saved in the beginning is selling the armor. Be sure to bring some money, the DLC is free, the armor is most certainly not.

If you choose not to believe her you bring the guy back to the tower to kiss her and he still dies.
if you don't trust her because her story doesn't add up, you understand that she's what killed the fresh corpses on the island, and you have to bring her lover to her to lift the curse.
They meet and they kiss, killing Graham (he does it willingly) and reuniting them forever
