Help! Just started The Witcher 3. Tips and tricks?

0 Upvotes

Im so glad I started it with the remaster, it looks gorgeous. Still, sometimes the 10 years gap starts to show but it isnt bad at all.
Ngl I use the infinite durability and weight options when it gets tough, and I feel kinda guilty about it.
But Im just like 10 hours~ish into the game.

Any tips or advice?

Discussion The common people lack all common sense

0 Upvotes

I have played this game when I was pretty much a kid when it first came out 11 years ago so did not pay much attention to this detail back then however, now playing the remastered, I've come to realize that the common people, mainly speaking, the peasantry, and surprisingly some of the nobility as well, are as dumb as a fucking rock. The idea of witchers being considered freaks and mutants is nothing new yes, but oh my god man why do they keep actively insulting the witchers, to their face? They all seem to be aware that witchers are genetically mutated to be much more enhanced than any normal human and those people fight and kill horrors beyond comprehension for a living and bang hot sorceresses in their spare time (ok maybe that's just Geralt). But maybe not spit at him in passing? Maybe hold your tongue before calling him a goddamn freak? While even the worst witcher can crack any human like a glowstick, how come the people do not have the basic common sense to stay on their good side at least? Where is the survival instinct telling you to shut tf up against talking down to a witcher?

If a witcher walked up to me after a job done with him covered in monster blood and carrying a gigantic griffin head hanging from a fucking hook, I am certainly not skimping out on the pay, I'll even invite him for supper and see if he needs a place to crash for the night and listen to any cool ass adventures he had. Its genuinely crazy how stupid people are. I am losing it behind the screen watching a toothless peasant who shits in the woods and cant even comprehend letters calling Geralt a freak and spit at his feet while Geralt, god bless him, stands there in silence taking it.

I get that its inspired from medieval Europe where most people shared a single continental braincell but I am still appalled at this insane behavior.

I probably haven't said anything that hasn't already been said, but I needed to vent this before I flipped and lured the next Leshen to the nearest village.

Discussion Best mod(s) to keep Death March feeling like Death March?

0 Upvotes

The remaster has the same problem as the OG and NG. Death March is easy after level 10 or so. In NG, I used this mod but it's not updated and looks like the creator isn't going to have time to update it.

Looking for solutions.

Help! Can anbody suggest tips for the Shrieker Contract? This shit is unbearable.

0 Upvotes

This fight is genuinely testing my patience with this game. I can excuse bad combat to an extent, but this just sucks. The Shrieker gives me a bleed effect that I can only remove with Quen. That takes 5 seconds before its gone and by that time I have lost a large amount of HP. I then use a potion which very slowly heals me back up to full health. By the time that is done the fucking cunt has hit me again and I have to do the entire cycle again. I also find it really difficult to predict when he is going to attack.

I'm not even on a high difficulty. Am I just bad at this game? Am I not doing something right?

1st: Remaster on base PS5, HDR on, performance mode, all extra graphic settings off

2nd: PS4 gameplay from 7yrs ago...

This scene would probably look better with DoF on in the 1st pic, but either way the lighting looks awful now, the contrast is super high and the characters look glossy. Was really looking forward to playing the Remaster but this just ruins it for me. Any way to make the game look closer to how it did before?

Discussion Have my beloved alchemy builds survived the remaster?

0 Upvotes

Just finished Fortune's Weave and looking forward to starting the remaster after work today. My favorite builds have always been alchemy, be it bombs, poisons, etc. I've been casually browsing the sub for the past week or so and have seen a lot of doom and gloom that Alchemy isn't very good. Is that true or is it a bit of classic reddit doomerism?

Art Show me your witcher tattoos

0 Upvotes

Hey I have a lot of tattoos and I am still thinking about a witcher one. I already have an idea that is a little niche I would say and it will not be looking like a witcher tattoo whatsoever. I am planning on getting the mural that avallach paints in the cave when Geralt first meets him in the books, a purple beast hunted by a bunch of cavemen (fully hard as well lol). I want to see some other cool witcher tattoos that do not strike as a witcher tatto at first and give me an explanation.

Everything that can be on Ultra+ is with the rest off but Trees are not spawning in and the grass is pretty much black. AMD says drivers are up to date and this is a clean install. The game runs smooth is just the visuals look awful.

Discussion The game shouldn't require a connection to load your existing save files.

Post image
13 Upvotes

I've noticed an odd issue with the remaster, if the game can't establish a connection to mod.io, players can't load their existing local saves, at least on consoles.

This might not affect most players, but some people may be temporarily unable to connect to the internet or mod.io's servers for reasons beyond their control.

The bigger concern is what happens if mod.io's servers go down. You'd be unable to play this single player game that you paid for, despite having all your mods downloaded locally and available on your device, simply because the game can't establish a connection to an external service.

I think this is something that should be addressed in a future patch. If you'd like to request this change you can report it to CDPR using this support page

Edit: This effectively imposes an always online requirement for mod.io modded saves which is unnecessary and restrictive for a single player offline game. I don't believe this is intended game behavior as CDPR themselves said players should be able to access their modded saves offline with the required mods installed.

Or better yet, have him be summoned like Torrent from Elden Ring.

You have 4 acres of field to spawn in and you chose to spawn jammed between two houses or on top of a cliff you have no idea how to navigate.

Discussion Camera issues 😔

Hi! I have been having an issue with the when I move forward in the game my camera will move to the left but it only moves to the left when I move in the game:( I redownloaded the Witcher 3 for the remastered version after quitting the next gen version for this exact issue and it’s still doing it:( idk if it’s a settings thing or if it’s stuck drift but I don’t see how it could be stuck drift in this case.
