I also got witcher 1 and 2 ...... it give me 20% discount ...... but if you get the season pass as well there will be no difference in owning or not, because both 10% and 20% discount you will pay the same price if you include season pass.

Right now I'm also at the fence on weather I should get only the game or game and season pass. Since the 1st DLC is gonna be in oct so far away ....

I strongly feel that getting the game is good enough but I can't decide.  cry.gif

Judging from past sales; I guess their expansion pass will be getting a discount when its approaching black friday sales. Guess I'll be getting the original copy first.

I would recommend you to play the first 2; but the producer said they'll introduce the witcher storyline for newcomers

I can't believe CDPR is doing this ! Shame on you !

Not fair to accuse CDPR without hearing a statement from their side. /2cent

EDIT: They did.

"We have worked with GMG in the past for W2 and they were a legit partner.

"We control all digital and the codes, and because we decided not to sell keys to GMG it came as a surprise that they are doing a special promo without buying keys from us. We have reached out to ask for the source of the keys but up until now there was no response. They might sell Nvidia keys (which are not to be sold but gifted with the Nvidia promo), or they just bought keys from GOG just like a regular customer and now they resell them with a loss (we cannot prevent anyone from selling something).

"They also list Bandai Namco as the publisher which is not true for W3 (Namco is our box distributor in PAL), so GMG is not a CDPR partner for W3 but they still might sell keys that will work."

that's wat i saw and feel...
the only mod i ever put in my skyrim yet is the ore mod (to make it look more shiny)

here i let u all decide
comparison before n after
the difference is quite apparent in the first pic (jungle/foliage)

IMO vanilla skyrim graphics are pretty shit to start with.

Theoretically, that could also be a reason for Yennefer's face change. Remember, sorceresses has the ability to remake their whole body, top to bottom, however they see fit. Plastic surgery is like child's play compared to this. Most sorcereress in the Withcer world do not look naturally like themselves, so yeah they've all had magically done faces and body, at least according to the lore.

No, the first pice was in-game. It was shown by CDPR and Nvidia about a year ago to promo the game.

The button prompts are correct. Witcher 3 fully supports both Xbone and Xbox 360 controller, natively.

From the books itself, Yennefer used to have a hunchback whistling.gif

i knew ittt.... cry.gif  mad.gif

im ok if its downgraded. problem is they didnt come clean early and still maintain that high end system requirement forcing me to purchase a thousand ringgit plus of hardware upgrade just for it. grumble.gif  moneyflies.gif  moneyflies.gif  moneyflies.gif

gonna try playing it wif my current rig...if it runs.... vmad.gif  #$^$&$%$^&$...

then i'll learnt a lesson - there's no honest developer out there and will never, ever pre-order any PC game till it's released for a week...wif reviews plus gameplay video for me to scrutinize before dumping my hard-earned cash into it...

inb4 - shouldnt that something everyone should be doing it? and i blame myself for being greedy on the preorder bonus and got into the hype... mega_shok.gif

Look at the bright side, at least you can ultra everything for 2 years to come.

one last time - the question is not whether Witcher 3 graphic looks bad or not...

it's about them, CDPR, showing us this is how it gonna looks like a year ago...
now ppl leaking out photos/videos showing the world how it may look like in the final product....
and CDPR is denying the downgrades....lying it if i may say so....ok?

and u think it looks gorgeous now? it could have been wayyyyy better than this gorgeous....
way better.... grumble.gif

Just enjoy the game la seriously. Kinda defeats the purpose of enjoying the game if you're going to nitpick all the detail of the texture.

I get your point, but I dont see the need of emphasizing the graphics issues again and again.

Meanwhile the 16 DLCs you requested. Better screenshot it btw.

Combats are more fluid than witcher 2 for sure; with more flexibility. So far so good.

The White Wolf. Greatest witcher of his time... running like a bitch because the bandits can 2-hit-kill him...  shakehead.gif

in terms of optimization CDPR claimed a lot of things but they're no Rockstar.

Ride a horse to kill them in 2~3 shots.

QUOTE(karwaidotnet @ May 21 2015, 12:47 PM)
after an hour plus into the game, got killed by this creature called Nekkid or something?

how i know when looting something will get me into trouble?

i dun quite enjoy riding the horse, when i'll have to climb down back each time i wanted to become gardener...quite troublesome. if im gonna leave Roach far, far away, can i still call it back wif a whitsle?

getting around 50-ish wif everything max except Foliage Visibility and Shadow set to High and the disabling the Hairworks.

on GTX960, i5-4660, 8GB RAm

- Nekkers? They'll swarm you and you need to dodge constantly to avoid getting killed
- There is a warning when you attempt to loot from an unauthorized chest. Dont just E + spacebar.
- Press X to call roach. Plus most of the games; even online games, needs you to unmount to loot

the previous games barely mentions Ciri & Yennefer too.

to summarize, Ciri is basically Geralt's adopted daughter.  so don't expect anything sexy is going to happen between the two of them. he trained her to be a witcher but she cannot performed signs like he can.

Yennefer is Geralt's old flame. Geralt's love interest Triss was in the previous two games so some players tend to favor Triss over Yennefer more as they don't read the books. The choice is ultimately yours. smile.gif

To addon, only males can undergo trial of grasses which is the mutation process for witchers.

which is why i dun own a horse in Skyrim...
or i did have a horse in WoW...which i only ride it for long distance travelling...guess i'll only use Roach for that purpose...
isnt Siri the personal voice assistant in ipon  rolleyes.gif

jokes aside, u're not alone.  sweat.gif

You can also fast travel in W3, Just go to any signpost.
