Why did the Witcher 3 have such great moments with both Yennefer and Triss?
I hate them both
>>320081204
Would you a....
>>320081382
ykys
Why does every "videogame" thread about Witcher and similar games just talk about the fucking story?
You might as well go to /tv/ and discuss this shit, because this isn't videogaming.
>>320081127
i like yen, i told her i liked her still and if she would still wanna be my gf.
>>320081694
haha nice dude!!
hi-5!
Can Geralt wear a cape?
>>320081694

>>320081694
>>320081987
95% or so of modern games.
>>320081987
Undertale
>>320081909
no
there are some trenchcoats though
Geralt's voice killed this game for me. Like, did he really have to sound like a hardened alcoholic? The wispiness combined with the voice actor trying to hit a lower pitch than he was obviously capable of just really made it sound like shit
>>320081909
With mods yes.
>>320082376
Also the "I never use a proper noun" / "cut off the first word of every sentence" dialogue.
>>320081127
Yen was a trick-ass bitch (I dont care about the book cannon and how they've been "together" for decades). Triss wasn't without her faults, but she genuinely cared more. Also, stick it in Shani's tight ass.
>>320082376
Literally all of his potions are made using alcohol. He drink a lot of it anon.
>>320082016
seriously?
>>320081694
hey at least nobody's pretending witcher 3's gameplay isn't complete garbage
>>320081127
Shani is the best girl.
>>320081694
It had a great story
BUT
it also had

Why do Slavs do better romance than the bumbling westerners who build their entire game around it?

Witcher 2 had a way better soundtrack. Still love 3 though.
>>320085094
>pick Yen on my first playthrough
>second playthrough tell myself I'm going to pick Triss
>can't do it
Fuck this game man.
>>320083274
I'm going to agree with you there, but it's missing the most vital part of video games; gameplay. By gameplay I mean combat, because that system is dangerously flawed. I can't continue the story because I don't feel like I'm having fun with it in between dialogues with roach acting retarded and the movements making it difficult to get anywhere.
There's a reason TWD S1 got GOTY 2012, and that game was merely an adventure walk n' talk comic strip.
>>320085094
>>320085370
>Pick Yen and Triss
>Get best based cutscene
>Get to be a witcher forever
>>320085404
>By gameplay I mean combat
combat is not a problem
crafting and looting is a problem
I was hellbent on doing Triss romance, accidentally saw this scene on youtube, and it singlehandedly made me pick Yen instead.
That damn look on her face is too much for me.
>>320081127
Yen fag here. OP has shit taste...and is also a faggot.
>>320085404
Anon, you're not entirely wrong or right.
This anon >>320085525 has the right idea.
Thankfully looting can be fixed via modding and crafting is thankfully not a major part of the game outside of getting the Witcher armour sets which arne't necessarily that hard to upgrade via crafting.
>>320085731
>via 9gag
Anon...
>>320085525
I loved the crafting and looting system though. Getting the witcher diagrams and making the armor using my hard earned orens was fun.
>>320085881
Shit...
>>320081909
Theres a mod that lets you wear the cape he wore in the opening.
>>320083168
It makes sense in context
>>320081694
>why are people discussing the storyline in an RPG
You retarded, son?
>>320083263
Agreed but what was the deal with her saying oh geralt it wont work I want a stable life and you are a traveling witcher, excuse me while I leave for the battlefield where my duty lies. She was perfect until that bit.
>>320085404
>g-gameplay
I hate every faggy degenerate retards who use this word.
They use "gameplay" as a buzzword that's some magical sparkling thing that's completely separated from everything else in a game.
These retards don't even know what the word means.
I wish to kill every single one who say this word.
>>320086514
gonna need source on that exact mod. All I found was some stupid red cape bullshit.
>>320081694

I wish horse races had been a bit harder or more varied, I liked how HoS added obstacles and stuff
Loved the races though. Needed a questline where maybe one race gets interrupted by a monster attacking the riders. I liked riding in Velen and seeing storm clouds on the horizon, great
After not being able to play it for over half a year thanks to my shitty laptop, I've finally managed to finish TW3 yesterday on a PC I've built last month. Definetly a GOTY for me, story, music, atmosphere, visuals and moments such as reunion with Ciri sold this for me. Gonna start Hearts of Stone soon, looks very promising. Also, post
>yfw realising Kaer Morhen in TW3 has exact same layout as in TW1, just more detailed
based cdpr
So anons, what was the best part of the Witcher 3 Questline?
It has to be either the Bloody Baron and the Ladies of the Wood or the entirety of Kaer Morhen
>>320087908
>If I'da bent over, I'dve puked
>Lambert.... You're a genius
>>320087542
You have to be clinically retarded to not understand what gameplay means when discussing this game. Go shitpost elsewhere.
>>320087908
The Bloody Baron didn't do too much for me.
Kaer Morhen was pretty great. I felt pretty sad when it was clear everyone was going their own way after it ended. Felt like it could have been the end of the game.
I also loved everything involving Ciri. Would have been better if they could have made that portion longer. Dad simulators are the best.
>>320081127
Is all the dialogue George Lucas-tier? Haven't played yet
>>320088109
>n-no don't call me retard! You're the retard you just don't understand it!
Come back when you're at least 18.
>>320088318
>that
>george lucas tier
if you think that's anything like 'i hate sand' then you know fuck all about dialogue
>>320087908
That one when you have to track across the entire island to find the ice giant.
I just started playing this shit today and its pretty fucking sweet. I love taking my time and planning, exploring, doing sidequests. Nothing feels like a chore yet I hope it stays this way. Also the shielding sign is broken
>>320088569
If you say so. That dialogue looks fucking horrible.
>>320088642
felt like i was playing ray harryhausen: the video game. loved every minute of it, great adventure
>>320087908
Basically everything from when you go to the Isle of Mists to when you kill Imlerith.
>>320088768
Give me some examples of good dialogue.
>>320088642
All the little diversions and sidetracking in that quest was great, and surprisingly enough the final confrontation did not disappoint.
>>320089082
The only disappointment was the giant fight was too easy, probably because I did it way over leveled.
>>320088318
No. One of the best written games in a while.
>>320081127
>that face of regret in the last panel
Everytime
>>320089075
Uh oh, I don't feel like looking up some dialogue (since I dont remember movie lines by heart). I guess that means you were right all along, good job
>>320083183
It isn't garbage. It's middling.
Nice hyperbole.
>>320089267
Well that's good to hear, then. Not every piece of dialogue can be winners, but if the whole package is pretty good...
>>320087908
novigrad is easily the GOAT videogame fantasy city. the whole questline is great, the criminal underworld, the witch hunters, confronting whoreson and finding dandelion, so fucking good.
i wish the skellige portion of the game got as much attention as Velen+Novigrad did though, the skellige scenery and wilderness was so fucking cool looking
>>320089450
Anything that isn't GOAT is shit on /v/. Are you some kind of newfag?
>>320089325
Well surely you can think of at least one game or movie with great dialogue. You don't have to give examples, just give us something that has it.
Surely if you know what you are talking about something stood out.
>>320089253
Even on death march, once you got the hang of the flow of combat, nothing was too terribly hard. But the presentation far outweighed the difficulty of the fight, I mean, fuckin Vigi.
>>320089737
Your brilliant plan to immediately say "you're wrong" to whatever is said worked, anon. Masterfully done, you won /v/
Armor Tiers
Wolf > Bear > Cat > Griiffin
Prove me wrong.
>>320090303
I think Bear looks better than wolf, so completely subjectively, you're wrong. Fucker.
I fucking loved this game, remember when I first finished it (before the ng+ thing), and I was just sitting there on kaher morgen, nobody was there, the story was over, It felt so empty and lonely, like I had a void inside of me.
>>320090303
bear for skellige (because its cold), wolf for the rest of the world
Is Heart of Stone any good storywise?
>>320091065
People certainly are claiming it's even better than the base game. Personally I am holding out until both expansions are out.
>>320091065
Yeah, it's pretty good. I don't consider it better than the main story, though.
Shani makes my dick hard, though.
>>320081694
Because story is the most discussable part of anything. There's only so much you can say about gameplay before everyone either agrees its good or its bad.
>>320089983
You aren't even trying to refute the point. Your argument is basically "You are wrong"
And when people say "Show us why" you are like "Oh hey you showed me by not agreeing with me"
Why was this game downgraded again?
Why couldn't they just release the non shitty version for PC?
>>320082916
I wouldn't say Triss cares more as there are lines she won't cross to help out her loved ones while Yen would literally do anything for Geralt and Ciri.
>>320087908
Getting drunk with Eskel and Lambert was really fun. I also liked all the parts where I was with Ciri. The scene where I found her in the isle cabin thinking she was dead really tugged at my heartstrings.
>>320083274
It's all about them Grappics.
>>320081694
Why is every time there's a Witcher thread, fags shit it up with their shit opinions?
>>320091065
It's great. A lot like the short stories of you've read those. It's got a lot of light and darker moments that flow together pretty well.
It also has best girl.
Can anyone give me some advice about the combat? Shit feels clunky as shit, even on the gamepad. I try to dodge but half the time I'm just being massively gangraped. The other half the time hitboxes are raping me. I'm getting raped by bosses that don't necessarily seem like they should be raping me (Jenny of the Woods, the Shrieker, etc). I'm not that far into the game, but I honestly don't feel like I'm that under geared. Someone help I just want to have fun.
>>320092070
Because there aren't enough PC players who will buy it full price to fund games like this. And they couldn't get the graphics from 2013 working in one continuous open world without causing the computers to melt.
>>320083274
>slightly hyped in trailers
They completely ditched their original renderer and dropped nearly every feature they announced originally.
I'd hardly call that "slightly hyped". Since there is a comparison, the base game will never look good enough. It was incredibly stupid on their part.
>>320093128
They can't get the 2015 graphics working without doing the same thing on anything less than a 980 either. The consensus is pretty much piss poor optimization and cahoots with Nvidia to force people into buying hardware to run it at 60 FPS. Thanks CD Project Red. Truly a company for us gamers, huh?
>>320093128
I find that hard to believe. They just don't want to admit that they won't stick up for their original fans if there is console bucks on the line.
You can do multi-platform and then some if you care enough.
>>320085404
go play asscreed if you want asscreed combat
>>320093128
maybe check the recommended level, some quests will jump up in difficulty suddenly
Tomira is the best waifu
>>320093404
Why don't go take a look at how much W3 sold on the PC, then tell me that's enough to fund a game like W3. PCfags either pirate or wait until the game is $1 in a Steam sale. They don't buy it full price.
>>320093580
You clearly don't know the history of TW3 then.
>>320085731
9fag, gg
>>320093412
He didn't say anything about asscreed combat mongoloid. His complaints about the combat are completely valid, and I feel the same way for the most part. Everything feels tedious and clunky as fuck. It just handles like complete ass, and it's really not fun to get smashed in the ass by four wolves because you're animation locked, or get destroyed by a sword across the room because "fuck you", the hitboxes are broken. I don't understand how ANYONE can praise a system as horrifically broken as this and defend it in any capacity
>>320093347
>us gamers
>>320093678
What? Go ahead and enlighten me Mr. CDPR Insider, since you're apparently intimately involved with inner working of W3.
>>320093754
It was a sarcastic comment dongface
>>320091065
On par with the main game's story.
Only issue I had is the final encounter taking away a chance to make the player feel clever and just have Geralt tell himself the solution.
>>320093036
>gamepad.
Your first problem
> I try to dodge but half the time I'm just being massively gangraped.
People are used to the casual i-frame tolling in the Souls games but in Witcher 3 you'd still get damaged if the enemies contact with you
>>320093862
The Witcher series is probably the least pirated game on PC.
>>320091065
If you want a story like The Bloody Baron's it is definitely up there. Pays a lot of homage to traditional stories like Dr. Faustus, Man of Glass and Ogierd are great characters throughout. Best DLC I've ever played desu
>>320093994
Reminder that Geralt only figured out water was the answer due to Vilgefortz's quote.
>‘You’ve mistaken the stars reflected on the surface of the lake at night for the heavens.
Hoping the next expansion has his gwent card same goes for Bonhart and Angouleme.
>>320093994
if the player is clever they can work it out themselves before getting to the point where geralt tells himself. doesn't have to be professor fucking layton

So I rewatched that part just now, and isn't it kind of stupid that you kill all those guys over a misunderstanding just to lift the one guy's curse? Why couldn't you just knock them out like you do in other parts of the game where the people you're fighting aren't the bad guys?
So what were your favorite side quests? No main quests so that also means no Heart of Stone unless it's like the Order of the flaming rose side quest.
Anyways mine in no particular order are
>Possession
>The Last Wish
>A Towerful of Mice
>Cardinal Sins
>In the heart of the woods
>Cave of Dreams
Why is Cave of Dreams for such a low level? It's pretty weird.

I swear in game they act like they just got knocked out as you can't loot them and they disappear.
>>320095498
Thought exactly the same thing, so I savescummed
>>320095564
i liked that order of the flaming rose one.
>I KILLED SIEGFRIED
The dlc quests skellige's most wanted and where the cat and the wolf play were excellent. The one where you meet up with lambert outside novigrad was excellent.
>>320095564
>A Towerful of Mice
That's the one with the ghost lady on fyke isle right? I accidently let her kill her lover.
That was a great quest though. I was creeped out the entire time I was in the tower.
>>320095853
Yes and you did good the other ending is far worse.
>>320095564
MORKVAGG
Or something
I found the crafting looting flawed because there was nothing that was better than Witcher gear
But I guess there's nothing that's supposed to surpass Witcher gear because it was made to be durable, light and didn't need assistance putting it on.
>>320095982
Really? I felt bad I let an innocent fisherman die. What happens if I don't agree to the ghosts request?
>>320095982
her lover dies in both endings, does he not? At least he did in the two ways I solved the quest, dunno if there were more endings.
>>320095853
That's the good ending. He didn't seem like he wanted to live without her anyway and Geralt warned him it was dangerous.
>>320096164
Quick fight, then the fisherman's true love break the spell at the cost of his life
>>320096164
if you just try to bury the bones the ghost gets mad and kills the guy, and goes on a rampage spreading plague and killing an entire kingdom
>http://i.imgur.com/jtJrWUQ.png
If you ever need to btfo Trissfags.
>>320096164
The Pesta is free to spread the plague around Velen.
>>320096175
Yeah there is only two and he dies no matter what.
>>320096164
If you bring her bones to the fisherman he dies anyway and she escapes to go spread plague elsewhere.
mmmm i love how the one faggit complaining about gameplay and being storydriven is getting btfo this thread, feels good
Tfw the best and worst cutscene in W3 happen within a hour of each other
The drinking scene was perfect, I never found something more entertaining than all 3 of them cross dressing to get sorceress to join them
>>320095498
Killing and dying is nothing neither to a Witcher and especially not to a Skelligan. But anyway, it only looks like you kill them in that part, I think, but you don't really.
>>320096479
What's the worst one?
>>320096479
What do you think the worst one is? Also it's a damn shame that the cooking scene got removed

>>320095652
Pre-render cutscenes are usually very low res
I think one thing that bothers me the most is with the bear armor, Geralt's hair is programmed to fit around the collar so it doesn't do that no clipping shit
Why the fuck did they not do that with the Wolf Armor when it had an even bigger collar
>>320096829
>Actually making a pact with the Leshen
best part about TW3 is that even the most mundane quests have a bit of narrative to keep me engaged, be it a note or a small conversation with an NPC. Even using Witcher senses doesn't annoy me as much seeing as I find it way more convenient than finding shit on my own. It also makes sense considering Geralt is supposed to have superhuman senses.
>>320095453
This game really nailed facial expressions, at least for Geralt. I'd be fine if the industry plateaued here.
>>320096829
>not killing the leshen
>>320096370
>>320096403
>>320096434
>>320096460
Wait, so I got the bad ending then? I took the bones to the guy and then she killed him and disapeared when I ran back in the house. Is that why I hear people coughing everywhere? She's spreading disease because she's free now? Oops.
Did the Bloody Baron deserve a second chance?
I don't know how to feel about him since he took care of Ciri and that clouds any form of judgement of his previous deeds.

The conspiracy quest in Snelling made me feel
The whole game you spared the sentient monsters and even helped them but the werewolf never belived you and you had to kill him.

Also the fact I can run it at such high settings at over 30 fps on God damn gtx 750, pic related.
