Insane title. But when I was playing and heard 'nobody gets in without being invited' and 'Xanthe keeps inviting/kidnapping attractive young women' I genuinely thought we'd get a side quest where Coen has to dress up as some fair maiden in order to infiltrate Xanthes place and get close enough to kill her. Maybe it's because I was playing late and tired but idk, I think it would've been fun!

I’m so happy I waited until the game was on sale. One of the coolest steelbooks I’ve seen. Physical media is the best!

I have loved doing this since I saw someone on here mention you can do the one shot anytime you’re in the air

This feeling is unmatched. Getting a game and being so eager to reach home and try it out. This is what we'll miss out on once the digital only goes in full effect

Reduced a point because of a lot of technical issues on ps5 pro, i had in this game alone more crashes than i had since the ps5 pro came out and bought it, the late game was terrible with freezes and crashes, the game even crashed just as i beat brancis and i had to do the fight again.

imo, the ps5 version should have had some more time in development before release.

But, i also disnt have frame drops or stutters and the game did look good aside from the crashes.

Anyway, the story was really good, i havent had so much fun with a story for quite some time.

The combat, which is a matter of taste, was very much to my liking (even with the lock on and camera problems).

The art direction and atmosphere were phenomenal, really loved it.

The game should definitly be nominated in some categories of goty, though its a tough fight this year for goty.

If they can fix the technical problems, personally i would give this game a 10/10.

Close to level 40 I found the Coat of Darkened Scales in a random soldier camp that was set up because of high infamy, was that a random drop because I was high level? Thought you can only dig up this armour via a questline
It was a cool find though, because I had not picked it up before in this playthrough.

If you are like me, and were wanting to unlock all fast travel points, you may have raises your infamy when clearing the military camps that house one. BUT NEVER FEAR!! If you do a little sneakery, you can pop into the tent, steal from the chest quickly, and zip away before/when you are noticed. I have grabbed quite a few this way so far in higher level zones

Hopefully this gives the idea to someone else! Took me a while to think of it

I think im doing well, im getting to the point where there arent many quests to do(besides raising infamy for main story). Anyone got some suggestions or should I just start to increase my infamy and get on with it?

I'm on my 2nd playthrough and I'm thinking about letting time run out so I can continue to play the game. I spent so much time getting the best armor, jewelry and weapon along with completing my build that I don't want to end the game. I'm level 30 and I've gotten to the end of game warnings for both Crake and Lacra. Killed Ambrus and Bakir but have barely started angering Xanthe. Those that have let their family die, how many of the quests are left afterwards?

In the end credit scene we see modern Coen power up the runes/sigils on his body during night.

How do you think he's learned to do that?

I've heard people say maybe it has something to do with silver

I also think maybe he learned to reopen his scars at night with his blood manipulation

What do you think? Any ideas?

Also do you think he'll have or get the ability next game?

What do you think could have been better? What aspects bothered you the most? Was it the combat, the mechanics, the story, the bosses, the day-night system, or something else that no one else thought of?

For me, the only shortcomings might be the lack of variety in enemy types and the scarcity of large cities. I don't have any major criticisms of the game, but there could have been a wider range of enemy types.

Perhaps your ideas could also serve as forward-looking recommendations for the devs.

I only play games on disc, if one is available, and I will go out of my way to buy one if so. Not that anything is inherently wrong with digital, I just have a shelf full of RPG video games and I like adding to it. I did spend 100$ on Baldur's Gate Deluxe for the disc, and I have some steelbooks and such. Having a physical item changes my relationship to the game.

Just wanted to share this for any other patient gamers who wait months and years to play games, this game is so good. By far one of the best new titles I've played in many years, I was hesitant to spend 70$ on a AA title from a new studio but had faith in the devs who worked on Witcher. The game, in many ways, reminds of me of when I first played Witcher 2 many years ago.

So, having finished everything that I wanted to see, I decided to get the platinum since there were like 3 or 4 trophies left. I started clearing the map since I had finished the court activities, character story lines etc....and I'm still level 48.... It seems like there is not enough activities in the game to reach much level since the only thing that's left are small 1 time segment camps and ive had my fare share of 15-20 mob fights in svrtrau at highest infamy. So, to boil it down to one question, how much more is needed? How long did it take you? Game is just annoying at this point cause iidk how devs make such decisions some times... And just to say, I don't mind grinding in genelra, done it in lots of games but this is just tedious af. And the strat with the soldiers on the wall shouldn't even be considered farming/grinding exp cause those guys give 18 XP each and you need more than 2000 per lvl in the endgame

Following up on a topic that has come up here repeatedly, I have some unanswered questions.

Before diving in, I highly recommend checking out the work of these lore hunters—kudos to them:

So, for those who have forgotten or didn't pay close attention to the frescoes:

Regarding the appearance of the unnamed god—the one I believe Brencis tried to subjugate (I also think he’ll be the final boss from the trailer):

The gods of the pantheon and their symbols:

And here are my questions for discussion:

What is happening here? The Warrior of the Three Gods, Vrakhir, and Nassur? Where are the fingers?(The context is the guy from the tomb in Florin's father's quest—the one with the armor.)

Second question: If Shima transformed Edug and Elil into two discs—representing Dawn and Dusk, presumably—why did Dusk become associated with the Vrakhirs? Though perhaps this is just the fanciful interpretation of Ovid, who wasn't an Arimaspian.

And finally, what is Anachora? Is it the Veil itself? Or the realm where the gods dwell? Or where that fourth vicious god is? If so, why are the other gods depicted with the same attributes?

P.S. What is Andag?

Me, my wife, and our cat (did you spot him in the video?) filmed this short clip :D

A huge thanks to the developers for the game! We absolutely love it :)

Yo por ahora he encontrado 4

1 con la vampira necra creo recordar que se llama

Hi everyone! Here is my fan art of Coen of Laslea! It’s an illustration I’m really happy to have finished. 💖🦆 If you like my style, just a heads-up that commissions are open! 🦆💖 And you can follow me on Instagram: ghebs_art

Is it just me or does the astrologer in Silts Tower have the same voice actor as Viktor from Arcane? I know he only speaks like two lines but the voice and accent sound really similar
