Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

So I've been wanted to play this for the last couple of years but have been slacking in the video game department mostly due to work and having a social life again. But this past weekend I didn't really feel like going out so I picked up the Witcher 3: Complete Edition for $50 on PS4. Normally I would get it on my PC or wait for the Steam summer sale but I'm but I'm getting sick of sitting in front a computer screen gaming for hours in my old age. So getting it on PS4 offered the comfort and convenience I was after. Anyway lol, I finally had a weekend off from any side projects and put about 12 hours into this game. I'm mad at myself for not getting it sooner. I played both 1 & 2 and this one is significant step up. It's helping quench my thirst for Elder Scrolls 6 (which I assure you I will get on PC). The freedom and choices make this game an RPG wet dream. I look forward to the upcoming long holiday weekend to log some more hours. Anyone else play it?

I played a lot of it but didn't finish and didn't play DLC.   I want to start back but I know I'll forget where I was so a new playthrough would happen.  Not sure I want to do that lol.   It was fantastic though.   Lots of hours on it.   Side quests are so fleshed out too.  

 

They are making a Netflix show about the books, that'll be awesome hopefully.

Destiny really fuged me in terms of me playing other games. I have a week off this summer and maybe I will be able to dive back in, but I'd really like to finish Breath of the Wild too. 

Witcher is so much fun, but iirc I'm kind of at a point where all my quests are a much higher level than me (like 30s and I'm a 15 or something). I probably need to back track and pick up a bunch of side quests that are manageable to boost my level some. 

 

I like the Witcher's lore better than Skyrim, but I still think Skyrim is a more appealing game to me just because you can casually pick it up and start dominating. Witcher is more rewarding but takes more time.

I explored the entire opening continent to get my level up. It is incredibly easy to get yourself destroyed in that game though.. It's unforgiving like dark souls

Blood and wine is possibly the best expansion I've ever played.

One of my favorite games of all time. Poured a TON of hours into it, finished the main story line, and didn't come close to playing all the side quests.

 

Also, may or may not have gotten addicted to playing Gwent (?) the card game anytime I played.  Such a great game with a ton to do and keep you interested.

Excellent but overwhelming game. I sunk a bunch of hours into it, stopped and am now intimidated to start again. I've never seen a game so big. Controls are a little wonky too but I liked it a lot.

Witcher 3 is life right now.

Pretty much every moment I have to game has been put into Witcher 3 =)

(I've even been skipping my Destiny weeklies!!!  Shame!)

What a wonderful game!  I am still getting used to the controls, but I'm just loving running around and learning the systems.  Still need to work on finding the right ingredients and cash.  Cash is the hard part =)

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By SCO96 · Posted

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2024 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.

      Clowney released

      By Waldo · Posted

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
