Cdpr is fantastic at modeling female characters.
Blood&Wine looks very promising.
>>335884949
Both true, but tell me why they didn't give you the perfect Geralt/Yen/Triss golden ending?
FEMININE PENIS
>>335885053
Probably because it wouldnt have been in line with the canon of the books.
>>335884949
>on the right
I would totallystroke his penis
The devs apparently said that the new map would about the size of all the Skellige isles put together.
Gid hype.
Shills among us
>>335885424
>New area of the expansion will be about "as big as all islands of Skellige combined"
>New gwent deck SKELLIGE will come out
>No Release date yet
>They haven't seen any trailers/teasers yet
>Release should be before E3
>Graphics for the new area have been improved and CDPR was thinking if they should replace for example the grass on the WHOLE map with the new, better grass. A joke was made that the improved graphics now look better than what we saw at the E3 2014 trailer.
what build should I play as for the expansion? My Signs build or Alchemy?
Expansion packs that come out this fucking late are not worth anything.
>>335884949
can't wait to buy the GOTY release for cheap and then spend about a year to complete it
game seems absolutely massive and it's one of the reasons that put me off from playing it
>>335885727

SOMEBODY ONCE TOLD ME
>>335885785
It's certainly best if you have some time off so you can really go indepth to it with some long sessions. If not, you have to be set on it taking many months.
>>335885785
Id say itd be pretty overwhelming. People when entering skellige say "oh Ive played 70h and just entered skellige and it is huuuge"
What do they think when they realize theres a 2nd skellige size zone After finishing skellige.
I imagine people just get paralyzed and quit the game.
>>335885170
>>335886067
I wonder how much content and side quests there'll be in the new zone. HoS had a few side quests, but not anything overwhelming, but I feel like they're obliged to have more seeing as it's an entirely new area.
the red market area is where the expansion takes place I guess
Hell yeah. I've always wanted to fuck a trap.
When's the release date?
>>335885170
Looks more like rapunzel than zelda.
>>335884949
They all look like trannies except the one on the left.
>>335885785
Not to be too much of a shill, but I doubt you will find such a huge ass game with such consistent quality.
Got to admire the sheer autism CDPR put into the damn game.
>>335885560
>calling out shilling while shilling another game
>>335884949
Yup, they look like humans, not like generic ass anime shit.

>>335888587
Ea dlc model of 2h mission with extra weapon/costume for 10euro takes somewhat less effort and brings in more profits.
I hope in b&w women act feminine and cdpr abandons the medieval female warrior trope.
Who likes warrior women in their fantasy?
>>335890101
If they're handled well, and not overdone, I don't see how there's anything wrong with it.
Cerys was top tier, m8.
>>335890754
cerys personality, leadership and such are fine.
The problem is when you put noodle armed women to fight men who weight twice as much as them and you expect them to win.
Who takes cares of the babies, cooks, guards the home when you have women soldiering somewhere?
>>335891093
are you implying that men are not capable of taking care of children and cooking?
are you implying that it is not at all possible for a female to become proficient at fighting?
>>335885337
>giant centipedes again
They weren't that bad themselves, but they give me memories of those fucking swamps
>>335891093
Skelligers are the only people aside from the elves we ever see who have female warriors. There can always be some that are pretty skilled, at least more than your average man, and many others just seem to have guard notice. And if you notice, it's not like there's a shit load of them. It's really only Cerys, that one chick one Faroe and said female guards here and there.
The men still make up the vast bulk of the fighting force.
One of them looks like my best friend in drag. That's fucking disturbing.
>>335891198
In times like that it was much rarer, because mothers taught their daughters and fathers taught their sons. Education was almost exclusively gendered even for the rich who hired tutors.
>>335891198
men do not get similar hormone response when taking care of babies, they enjoy it less and are much happier hunting or doing physical labour to maintain the household. it applies to a world like witcher universe
you need a woman to breastfeed anyway
being able to be "proficient at fighting" doesnt make it a good idea
>>335891362
>mfw one of the books hypes up this female bandit to be incredibly skilled and dangerous only for Geralt to fuck her and later kill her in one strike
>>335891552
While true, I'm sure there are exceptions within history that also had fighting women here and there. Just sometimes you have to discern fiction from reality.
>>335891598
>mfw some brat says something about hearing them roar
>>335891661
women never fought on the winning side
and it makes sense, if you go to war and instead of protecting teh women you're killing off women on the frontlines what exactly are you trying to accomplish
>>335891705
Bonhart looks like he should be riding in the steppes of Ukraine and cutting off Tatar heads.
>>335884949
the girl in the middle is literally perfect.
>>335890101
But Cerys was best girl, silly Anon.
>>335891552
yes, but this is a fictional world, even though it is mostly based on medieval slavland + fairy tales, and like the guy above you said, the female combatants are the exception and not the rule, just like it is in real life.
>>335891589
men are just as capable of taking care of children as females are, whether they want to or not. if they don't want to, that means they're shitty people. you have a point with the breastfeeding, but you don't need to breastfeed children forever, and if you're actively engaged in doing military stuff, you're probably not going to be having children.
regardless of it being a good idea or not, and even though men have the whole stronger bones and more muscle mass thing, it is not impossible for a woman to become a skilled fighter that can hold her own against men.
CuckDPR sold out to SJWs. What a shock.
>>335892034
what do you mean
The graphics are still shit.
>>335891827
i'm pretty sure the soviet union won their great patriotic war, and i'm pretty sure israel is still a country.
>>335891093
You're talking about this like Skellige was your typical feminist's dream. It wasn't.
You meet several hardy women in Skellige who know their lot in life is raising children to go to war, and you generally deal with shit loads of widows who've lost their husbands/sons to the Skellige life style. A lot of Skellige girls are also raised a lot more equally, meaning they're out there from a young age doing more masculine shit. But in spite of this, there's only really a few female warriors here and there, but it's like, what, maybe 1 for every 20 male warrior? And I can certainly buy that that many might at least be pretty competent fighters on account of their life style, at least enough to stand around on guard duty which seems to be most of them.
>>335891661
Do you know why women were rarely warriors?
Lets say your tribe has 100 men and 100 women
You go to war and lose 90 of your men
The remaining 10 men can impregnate the 100 women and make a new generation
If you lose 90 of your women, it would take much longer to make 100 new people
Even if you lose 50 women, it would still take significantly longer
>>335884949
>Female
>>335892058

>denser foliage = the game looks better
>>335892198
wait a sec, the perfect looking girl in the center is a tranny? i'm ok with this..
>>335892081
Men are the expendables of nature. It's that simply. The pressure for natural selection is on the man. A woman is more or less guaranteed off-spring simply by having a vagina. A man must prove himself worthy. This is why men display greater variety of IQ, body types and personalities than women do.
>>335888582
Fuuuck. Do you see that thing hanging from the tower? You might be exactly right.
>>335892198
>tranny bait
What?
>>335892295
You can see the beard on the tranny on the right. They're obviously men you blind fuck. CuckDPR doing good, pleasing the western market.
>>335892075
we're talking about pre-gunpowder era
what ratio of female-male fighters do you think there was in SU or israel anyway
>>335892291
This?
That's a branch.
>>335890101
Fuck you, the female warrior trope is literally my fetish.
>>335886067
Skellige is like the end of the 1st act of 3 too. Finding Ciri is literally the half way point of the main story.
>>335892350
what beard? go be autistic somewhere else.
>>335892237
let's see you do better :)
>>335892350
Are you trolling or retarded?
>>335892395
Damn, forgot the picture.
>>335892372
a very small percentage, just as it will always be and has always been, because men are generally speaking more suited to warfare. but that doesn't mean you can't have exceptional woman pulling their weight.
>>335892445
Are you fucking blind? You can clearly see the pale line of the beard that happens when you shave.

>>335892594
>Croats and Slavs
Anon, Croats are already Slavs.
>>335892628
Not to feed this shitty forced meme but Witcher universe is not 13th century poland and mages can alter appearances. CDPR definitely would not pull that shit though and youll be banging all their vaginas without a doubt.
>>335892628
you dont actually see the tits, its all covered in clothing
anyway, magic exist
>>335892596
yeah, sure, and that's where the majority of woman in history ended up when they had to serve. but that doesn't mean that they're incapable of fighting, especially not today.
>>335891362
Skelligers are based heavily on the vikings, if that wasn't obvious
Vikings had shieldmaidens and most women knew how to fight - this was because the men would go raiding and the shieldmaidens and women would need to be capable of defending the town from bandits
also the shieldmaidens would sometimes come on raids, usually if they had no children or their children were grown, or if their husband wanted them to come, or if they were high-ranking
there certainly weren't full platoons of them like in the Vikings TV show
>>335892628
>13th century
200-300 years too early there bud
>>335892558
Pissed off Yen is nothing to scoff at. Also, Bonhar was cool, but he wasn't cool enough to beat Ciri's plot armor.
I still like him since he's always described at this unrelenting demonic force.
>>335892736
>not 13th century poland
I know, but it's set in the 13th century.
Geralt says it's the year 12xx when talking to Shani.
And it's also not like it's Bioware making the game. You'll definitely bang her.
>>335892763
but in the past a trainer well armored fighter never met a trainer armored female fighter
women simply didnt make career out of fighting and all the armor that was made was made for men
when a non-trained poorly armored exhausted woman was rushed by a well trained warrior they could contribute nill to the battle
>>335892817
Oh ok sorry I couldve swore I saw poland and I agree. Hopefully Fringilla makes an appearance as well.
>>335892769

>>335892008
>Milva(best archer)
>Dryads(good with arrows)
>Ciri(pretty good)
>Angouleme(average fighter maybe even below)
>Julia Abatemarco (good field commander)
>Meve(props for actually fighting in a battle and leading her troops)
>Calanthe( same as above)
>Renfri (decent fighter)
>Yen (picks up some dagger kills but she's like 5'0" and it's made apparent that she is not a melee fighter)
I think that's all of them from the books. Then you have Saskia and Cerys from the games but really the only female who was good in melee combat would be Ciri.

Viral marketing and shills are a part of 4chan. Nothing we can do about it.
>>335892864
you're setting the scenario up to be very one sided, of course she wouldn't win. the thing is, nobody has ever really given women a chance to fight, if you were to set up a well trained and armored female fighter against a poorly armored and trained male peasant the training will carry you through 9 times out of 10. if you're talking equal skill and equipment, then yes, the male has an advantage due to biology. just because it's not efficient to let women fight does not mean they're incapable of fighting,
>>335892957
>>335893014
You two are right. I am like 99% sure OP is a shill post but at least I can discuss the world of the Witcher without dealing with autism. So I take what I can get.
>people surprised about CDP pandering to SJWs after they got a GOTY award from the most corrupt journalist in the industry
>>335892780
I liked his description of his face. Gave off that creepy vibe and Yen pissed off is something to behold but she is so short. She's a womanlet.
>>335893150
Take your autism and trap fantasies somewhere else.
>>335893173
Yen also used to be a hunchback before she used magic to fix it.

Fuck Triss and Yen, Iris is my waifu.

>>335893657
Doesn't matter, you can't understand (and thus enjoy) the games if you haven't read the books.
Welp, there goes that thread.
>>335893738
Until CuckDPR drones admit that muh based Polack devs is the same as other western trash
>>335893734
Maybe the fact that one autist has been spamming "TRANNY TRANNY YOU'RE ALL SHILLS TRANNY TRANNY" since the start of the thread contributes to that.
>>335893745
You can't seriously incorporate that into an image where you're trying to convey how the timeline looks that. That was just a wedding gift to one of his friends.
>>335893761
Let me guess, you're an american?
>>335885785
Honestly, what I love about the game is that you can just play any 30m-2h side quest per session and feel like you just completed a whole game, they are THAT good, and you don't feel forced to follow through the main quest until you're about 3/4 in. At least that's what happened to me, it's very relaxed until you get to Skellige.
You can just play it a bit and get back to it after a few months and still feel satisfied with it.
>>335893815
>Let me guess, you're an american?
What does that have to do with his post?
>>335893701
There is literally nothing wrong with traps.
>>335893865
It has alot to do with his post. Believe me. Americans are autistic manchildren with double digit IQ's that start whining like little children as soon as their special snowflake bubble gets poked at in any conceivable way.
>>335893657
I read the Blood of Hlves and Time of Contempt and they're really good though.
Ciri parts are definitely the most boring though apart from the sex scene, good thing Time of Contempt is mostly about Geralt and his new friends.
>>335893814
Maybe you just have to admit that she's not cis shitlord.
>>335893815
But it's literally as canon as the games so I treat it the same.
Also this thread went to shit. Another Witcher thread ruined.
>>335893882
Would be better without the pads
>>335893914
Unlike literal retards with single digit IQs such as yourself. Right?
>>335893947
>But it's literally as canon as the games so I treat it the same.
In relation to the books, sure. But don't you understand how that's still not the same thing or an appropriate thing to do?
>>335893935
1 of those books I remember had really wooden dialogue/poorly thought our characters that behave in a silly manner. Part of it might've been the translation but its not high quality writing in any case.
>>335893657
All the books are worth reading but yes the first two are usually considered to be the best .
>>335893987
Btw I know you're the guy I asked whether you were an american or not, just pretending you're someone else. And you're just proving my point with your posts, just lay off now because you're only making yourself look even more pathethic.
>>335894040
This. All the books are worth reading not only because they're good themselves, but because they obviously make you actually understand what's going on in the games because they happen AFTER the books, and enhances the game experience because you'll understand everything and already be familiar with them. It's a great experience.
>>335893947
If you want a circlejerk you can also go back to your natural habitat.
Both the short story and the games use the events that happened in the books but the books treat them as non canon. It's kind of the same thing. They are alternate realities to what happened.
>>335894069
I'm not. You're just a single-digit IQ retard

Same, except Skellige kind of fucked it up for me. I was going after all those question marks on the map while doing the sidequests but there where just too many useless smuggler crates there.
>>335895081
Just like the games. They are alternate universes.

>>335895195
Yes.
>>335895195
They are not ALTERNATE UNIVERSES. Stop using terms you clearly don't know what they mean.

The one on the right is not a tranny.
>>335895185
My friends did the same autismo quest of getting all the question marks before even beating the game and they're so bored of it now they won't play the DLC. I turned off that shit right when I started and treated them like little bonuses while traveling around, it's the best way to play.
Should be turned off by default.
>>335892490
Dandelion's gf had that too. Yeah it looks weird, but it doesn't prove anything.
>>335895270
To say that 100% of the books are canon to the games is wrong considering they changed the future that we saw in them and some lore. If the books are 100% canon to the games then Geralt and Yen would not have popped up 4 years later after disappearing and the White Frost would be something different and wouldn't have got stopped. The books are more like 95% canon to the games.
>alternate universe
>different timelines
lol. No.
The games are just fan-fiction. Stories made-up based on the works of andrzej sapkowski. Non-canon.
His words.
>>335895562
best idea is to do question marks that happen to be near you, and mostly ignore marks in the sea.
Has anybody played Hearts of Stone in NG+? I've been thinking about starting up NG+ and doing another playthrough to get back in the swing of things before the new DLC comes out, but I don't know if fucks with the balance in the DLCs or if I should experience it on a first playthrough.
>>335895562
God this fucking part of the game was so obviously pandering to trannies.
Every time I feel like buying this game, I just remind myself of this scene.
>>335895501
those don't look like bullshots they look like what we got in the Witcher 3 well besides this one>>335885824
>>335895652
Please no, they did that with herbs and I spent ages getting locked into herb chains
>>335895652
sabrina best girl
>>335895692
it was based on two of the short stories
>>335895690
Id replay the game normally, newgame + makes you keep stuff Id rather collect again as its part of the game.
>>335895692
...what
i'm just going to assume you've never read the books, and maybe you haven't played the games either.
>>335895740
>not picking best girl based on how good there gwent card is
It's the only way I judge women.
>>335895619
>To say that 100% of the books are canon to the games is wrong considering they changed the future that we saw in them and some lore
You don't get it. Everything that happens during the time of the books is 100% canon in the games unless stated otherwise, the FUTURE described in the books is NOT canon to the games, OBVIOUSLY, because the games pick up right after the books.
>>335895832
b-but all muh recipes that i collected...
>>335895930
No I understood you. If something is changed for the game then what it was in the books is no longer canon for the game.
>>335895628
Yes, in relation to the books, obviously.
>>335895185
>>335895562
Turn off the question marks, first thing I did when I realised I could, first time I was playing. Much more fun to play with them turned off and stumbling upon things like that on your own.
Although, since I DID play with the turned off. What KIND of content is there at the question marks usually? Quests? Or just bonus loot guarded by ''elite'' creatures and such?
>>335895652
Why did Sabrina and Sheala have to die, fucking CDPR
>>335895832
fuck that
I ain't collecting all that shit again.
>>335895994
Then we're on the same page.Get it? Same page?
>>335896004
usually just a orange sword or armor piece guarded by a hard creature or group.
like anon above said, i think it would be best to just turn off the map markers. i went through and explored almost every one on land and it didn't burn me out like some people but you're not missing out on anything.
>>335896004
95% loot, and very rarely some 2 minutes long quests that make you look for loot left after whatever happened in the area.
>>335896069
I mean they did want to whore out Ciri and use her as a political tool and were going to kill Geralt if Yen and Ciri didn't meet with them. Then there was all the shit they did in the second game.
>>335896153
Alright then I'd prefer to keep it turned off so it doesn't become a chore but just something that's a natural part of the adventure.
>>335895878
Some look way better in the card than they actually do themselves
Like Keira Metz
Something I've wanted to discuss for a while.
So we currently live, we could say, in the ''first years'' of electronic entertainment. A few decades is not enough to turn non-electronic material into electronic entertainment (movies, games).
We have video games that occur after the Witcher book series, we have a TV-series about A song of Ice and Fire.
Do you guys think that as time progresses, there'll be reboots and remakes of the exact SAME material? Think a NEW TV-series about A song of Ice and Fire, this time with more attention to detail and more episodes, thus being more faithful to the series. Or NEW Witcher video games, that also happen after the books, more faithful to lore established in books, etc ?
Do you guys understand what I mean? Do you think we'll see more of that kind of stuff in the future?
>>335896313
Metz has no business looking like some hippie druidess
>>335896412
anything can be remade if theres money in it, but im not sure that hugely popular shows like GoT will be made since people will just say "the old series did it better" and its not going to turn profit as easily
>>335896412
This has already happened.
>>335896412
>Do you guys understand what I mean?
Yes
>Do you think we'll see more of that kind of stuff in the future?
No. We will just get remaster in for The Witcher and no to another live action adaptation of ASOIAF. That being said something like this has already happened.
>>335896586
Sure but not on the scale I guess that I'm envisioning.
Im gonna shoot my jizz in all dem fine bitches puss.
>>335892765
>he fell for the "Vikings had shieldmaidens" meme
>>335896708
>puss
ur in for a surprise my friend ;)
>>335897035
Jewish revisionism of history. They're just trying to pander to the ''MUH STRONK INDEPENDENT WYMYN'' meme, and that women and men are equal in every respect, with few differences, and the only differences being imagined.
>>335886067
the game of the year edition will be overwhelmingly intimidating for anyone who feels compelled to complete games they start. But for normal non-autistic types I think this game will sell at a steady rate for a long time. Especially with all the free content and mods they release.
However its hard to play W3 for a long time or session to session because I feel like the game needs some more fluidity and direct control to combat, playing W3 compared to Darksouls 3 or even Darksouls 1 theres a very strong feeling of disconnection between you and Geralt, you press one or two buttons and he performs acrobatic tricks, parries for you, throws out strikes up and down, for something you do constantly the combat is by and large very spectator-like.
Making a player feel skillful from the get go is great for casual players and some games, but this is a long ass journey, there's a lot of combat and it caps the enjoyment where you are just waiting for raw boots to damage and doing the same thing for hours at a time.
I like the game, I find the quests diverse, the world looks great in 2.5k, dialogue isnt even that bad the game as a whole feels good, its a good game. But man why was combat left so basic.
tl;dr Good combat mods for W3, please anything
>>335892628
The Witcher is actually set in the future on a different planet. Humanity destroyed earth and teleported itself to another dimension, where magic and stuff can happen. The planet originally belonged to the elves, but the humans kicked them out and settled. Much of human technology was lost in the teleporting. Geralt is actually the result of advanced human technology, in the form of genetic engineering.
>>335889078
Because CDPR are based.
>>335890101
Cerys is best girl, no contest.
>>335897217
if anything is going to change its going to be done with blood&wine, mods arent going to change much
>>335897217
>>335897602
The combat is fine, very good actually.
>>335897642
Did you play the Witcher 2? Didn't you feel the abandonment of directional combat, which I find more immersive, for Heavy and Fast Attack with a parry+block button cheapens the experience. I beat the final boss by rolling around and spamming light attack for free crits. Ciri's parts become stupid almost immediately when you start insta-killing everyone. Im not on the hardest difficulty but hard just appears to be a straight increase in enemy HP but no really additional layer to combat. Playing a run with just Sigils was fun but again is not that stimulating, I found myself only having to use ignie, even the Frog Prince who really kicked my ass on my melee build died almost immediately.
>>335897938
>muh immershun
Welp. Opinion discarded.
You may leave.
>>335897217
There's only a couple of good builds for W3 and the options are so good you're only hindering yourself by not using them.
Skills are horribly unbalanced its obvious and so everyone runs the game in basically two ways and does the same thing the whole time.
Changing weapons around is fun but why the fuck wherent there more unique and interesting things to play with, the Sabre (or katana?) and the spade from Hearts of stone are the only unique effect weapons I found the whole time.
I wish the combat in this game was better
>>335898373
jup, it doesn't really help that you can break it with certain builds either
>>335898113
I know I hurt your feelings by calling your favourite game too easy
>>335898373
What's wrong with it?
>>335898647
Excuse me but you were asked to leave.
Goodbye.
>>335898679
No idea, it's pretty much like dark souls and dark souls has the best combat eeevaaar
>>335896069
Thanks for the spoiler, anon. Gonna be playing it in a few days. Fucksake.
>>335898870
just in time for the games anniversary.
book niggers ruined the witcher for me
>NO YOU CANT DO THAT. GERALT WOULDNT DO THAT HE WASNT LIKE IT IN THE BOOKS
>NO ITS REALLY INACCURATE BECAUSE IN THE BOOKS ITS LIKE THIS
>WOW READ THE BOOKS THATS NOT HOW THAT WORKS AT ALL THE GAME IS WRONG
>YOU DID WHAT? DO YOU EVEN GERALT.
Good fucking lord you people are obnoxiously autistic
>>335897217
Playing the W3 got me into
Chivalry, which then put me off W3 for that reason. it's so close to being good there just needs to be more mechanics to it
Surely theres a Witcher 2 mod
>>335898928
But you already played it, you immense faggot.
>>335897938
The trouble is not the combat mechanics themselves, but the fact that the game becomes extremely easy, there are mods to make the game much harder.
>>335898928
>you people are obnoxiously autistic
Autistic people on 4chan??? WTF DID I JUST READ?
>>335898928
I liked being a total asshole in the Witcher 3 because I read the books, it felt more like a perversion of his character in my image. Anyone who cries about not playing "canon" Geralt is just autistic
>>335898679
I found it to be shallow and casual and poorly designed.
Human enemies will 100% of the time parry the first 3 hits and get hit by the next. You can mash left click if 1v1 and win everytime since the game doesn't have stamina.
Small monsters like drowners or nekkers will 100% of the time take 3 hits and then launch an instant counterattack if you dare hit them the 4th time in a row.
It's boring. I would rather have M&B combat but with dodging.
>>335899085
Is it just more HP, I dont know if that'll make it better or worse. Im going to get called a faggot for this but I want more Darksouls type combat, where enemies need to be engaged in different ways. Plugging enemies with more HP with ignie or light attack spam is eh
>>335898928
>friend that watched me play once and deleted me because I didnt act like book Geralt
What a fucking idiot he was. What a horribly autistic and miserable person. Glad he's gone.
Not only that but I made a thread around when TW2 came out and everyone, EVERYONE sperged out about me killing the dragon at the end.
It's a videogame motherfucker and an RPG at that. It's my fucking story and the game gives me the option to shape it how I want. Fuck you i dont give a shit about your books.
