Why is it so much better than the actual game in every aspect?

Does it make the combat not shit?

More focused

>>337468856
It's Geralts story, not ciris
I'm still playing it in anticipation of B&W. I'm on the last task, how far in am I?
>>
Because fuck Ciri

Also, these witcher contracts with a twist get old quick... Why can't it ever be straight up?

>>337468920
No, you can't fix a game that looks good with terrible combat.

Hopefully it will be enough content to make up for the wait .. Kinda sad it's the last Witcher 3 content
>>
>>337470808

pretty close to done

More focused, self-contained, cohesive plot. Also Gaunter O'Dimm is top notch villain.

is this a meme, witcher 3 combat is really good, better than 1 or 2

those HOS boss battles get more and more tough, von emeric battle is mental

Gee, I wonder why.

>witcher 3 combat is really good, better than 1 or 2

being better than the combat of 1 and 2 doesn't exclude it from the reality of being shit
>>
>>337471271
Combat is meh, but not as bad as /v/ makes it. Can be clunky as fuck. Rest of the game makes up for it though.

It doesn't work that way m8.

idk what the fuck he actually is, but it seems he is very fucking powerful.
at first I thought he was a genie, but hes not hes something else.
more powerful than ciri or any witcher character.
also i didnt realize geralt meets him in white orchard. He mentioned he helped me I had to google it, very subtle of CDPR adding him in beforw release of HoS
>>
>>337471468
>Witcher 2 had good combat

You never established this though.
You just said that Witcher 3's combat was better than 2 or 1s.
This just means that 2 and 1 have even shittier combat than 3.
>>
>>337471468
>Witcher 2 had good combat

>>337471598
He's God, devil or demon, which in the end doesn't make much difference.

how is the combat bat, there is a fast strike, a hard, more slower strike, a far roll, a dodge, a block and a couunter, then a button for signs and/or throwing bombs or xbow.
what more doess it need....it's witcher hes not gonna bring out the BFG3000 or superman fly in the air its swordplay combat....it's perfected really.

name a similar game with better or god tier combat so I could relate to the "shit" combat meme
>>
>>337472076
Dark Souls has similar combat (in theory at least), so there you have it.
>>
>>337472220
>Dark Souls
yeah and dark souls is shit, it doesnt have that small dodge or a counter though does it?
>>
>>337468856
Consistently well writing and doesn't suffer as much from the open-world-syndrome
Also better boss fights

Gaunter O'Dim and his storyline was inspired by old Polish novel - Mr Wolodyjovsky - in which Devil tricks Wolodyjovsky into selling his souls.
>>
>>337472220
>Witcher 3's combat was based around Dark Souls
>Except instead of being open to various builds and adding tons of invincibility frames to the rolls, it's built around the different Witcher abilities.

Honestly, I cannot get how you could say Dark Souls has great combat and Witcher has shit combat when it's pretty much the same thing.
>>
>>337468920
Can someone explain this meme? What was so bad about the combat?
>>
I read that the base game was getting a UI update but I havent gotten any updates... wait I just realized I deleted Witcher3 from my PS4 to make room on my harddrive (being 100% digital on a stock PS4 is a rough existence).

Anyways has the update with the improved menu and inventory system been pushed to PS4 yet? If so, I might play the game again and go after some trophies. Does the season pass ever go on sale?
>>
>>337473358
The UI update is part of Blood & Wine

would be cool if Witcher had a parry/riposte system like Dank Souls, but other than that and DS having a bit more variety i wouldn't say there's much difference or that DS has "good" combat, it's mostly spamming dodge rolls and sidestepping enemies

RPG's has never had good combat, they're getting better, but it's still pretty shit

not really sure at exactly what point people suddenly got a huge standard for their expectations of RPG combat
>>
>>337473439
Thanks for not answering my question.
>>
>>337473717
It does have a parry if you time your dodges instead of spamming it
>>
Why are Polack fucking shits so insecure they always have to start a Witcher thread with "Why is this GOTY" or "This is literally best game ever made".

Fuck off. Nobody is falling for it anymore. Your game is trash. And your country only good for cheap whores.

The reason why HoS was better than the main game was because they added better boss fights and enemies you fought.

Dark souls combat isn't exactly complicated or deep, what makes DaS and BB is the really awesome boss fights and different enemies you encounter that you have to approach differently.

I didnt say dark souls has great combat, I think dark souls are terrible games, built for goths and jap goths.

also just fyi the invincibility (take less damage) for rolls and dodges are in the attack ability tree, not needed really if you have quen

Funny how nobody gives a single shit about Witcher in DaS threads but you fucks are obsessed with it.
>>
>>337473717
It does, though. Block an attack before a weapon hits you to parry it. You can parry certain monsters, too, and as a result you cut off their limbs.

The only Witcher with almost good combat is 1. With a few tweaks it could have been good. The other two are irredeemable trash.
>>
>>337474623
That fight took nearly a half hour on Death March
>>
>>337474885
All boss fights in HOS took for fucking ever.
I didn't die once, but they still took for fucking ever

He can't because blood and wine isn't out yet you goober.

Boy, you're a smart one. The UI update is paired with blood and wine. Therefore no, it isn't out yet, you dolt.

>can't fug qt deadfu

>>337468856
Iteration. You sometimes simply need to see how things work in practice and what people will end up disliking so you know how to improve on it.
>>
>>337468856
Bloody Barons questline was pretty good.

But yeah the rest is shit in comparison.
>>
>>337474108
Witcher 2 had good combat, problem was it dragged by overall clunkiness. And people idiots who never learned that DISTANCE to your target also affects what attack Geralt was going to perform.
>>
>>337468856
So I lost my save, do I have to replay through a shitload of the game to play this?
>>
>>337475730
Recommended level is 30-32. So yes.

You can play it without a main game save, you will get a pre made Geralt with some gear.

>>337475820
Ha, fuck that.

It's butthurt weebs being butthurt because Witcher 3 won the most GOTY awards.

If you are a faggot. You can choose a option were the game gives you a lv 30 character to use for the DLC.

>>337475730
There is option to play the DLC only. It gives you Geralt that is already at the required level.
