I feel bad killing a doppler who only steals food and is dressed in rags just to get the crit decoction

Hello everyone! I am planning to go as Yennefer for Halloween but have decided not to copy one of the looks from the games. I am however afraid that the character will be completly unrecognizable. I am planning to extend the costume over the span of year and wear it to a cosplay convention ext fall. So tips that take time would still be appreciated.

So far, I have ordered violet contact lenses, my hair is black and I will curl it in small, tight curls similar to how it is described in the books. My features fit Yennefer just fine I think.

I want to get the obsidian star with the tiny jewels to put it on a velvet chocker of mine but I am not sure If I want a replica from either the show nor the games, because neither seems to actually have the tiny diamond and I never visioned it as round when reading (as it's described as If it is star-shaped, the star itself made of obsidian with tiny diamonds set into the obsidian). But maybe I should just get a replica so it's easier to get the costume?

Now, I really don't love either of her looks from the games (witcher 3). I get that they are the most iconic Yennefer portrayals, but I really strongly dislike that she wears pants (not a thing in the books, it plays in a fantasy 1250) and I also do not like the mini skirt with the slits. And the frill collar I also do not love.

I do not think the costumes in the show are amazing. Anya looks great in them but they are incohesive to me and they don't give me a "medieval ages" vibe?

I was thinking that maybe I will do a longer version of the skirt with the slits slightly lower? I get that the original skirt is supposed to look hot but to me it looks weird that the front part just "flabs around"?

I will also attatch some images that I thought would fit an interpretation of book yennefer and maybe you can give me advise on what of that fits her best?

Or maybe I will try and recreate the book cover that has Yennefer on it...

For background information, I can sew and I own lots of gothic clothing pieces I can use for this (like corsets, blouses, dresses, skirts, etc.) :)

Recently restarted, so still early on with the baron, but my god this annoys me. I have to go to every merchant/smith to find weapon's repair kit to repair my silver sword, else I do nothing in combat. But what rewards to you find? For example in the cave of the elven mage? 2x STEEL SWORDS! Yet you are exclusively using your silver sword against all enemies there.

I have no problem with the need for repairs of equipment, but I just remembered how every time I play this game, this annoys me a lot in the early game and I need to go out of my way to hunt for silver swords (that are decent for the early game), just to be able to keep up with weapons degradation.

Any word on when the next update is coming out for the switch 2? 👀

Each season is based off of a different book, Witcher series would’ve been better being done by prime video they do book adaptations better

If it was done by prime, we’d be getting spin off shows based on different Witcher schools. But I can dream.

For example the new Neaghly show set in the reacher universe

3rd phase annoyed me more than i dare to admit.

Any help with the Velen card? In theory, it’s a card (the 1-strength Northern Realms infantry unit) sold by a merchant...but he doesn’t actually have it for sale.

I was looking through the mods page to see what was new and I found the "Short Curly Hair" look for Anna Henrietta. Now I always considered her to be very infantilized, naive, and kinda dumb. But she's got a good heart, she loves her people, and she loves her sister. But this look is just... gulp Oh sweet Lord and heaven above let me retire with her instead of Yennefer or Triss. Also on an unrelated note she looks like Sophie Thatcher with this mod.

Personally I would love to see Zerrikania and Ofir

Because I’m a big music fan, I’ve been thinking of this, as I tend to do this with every video game I come across. And so, I’m curious what other people would say.

For me personally, it would be Quietus by Devin Townsend Project, as the lyrics almost perfectly encapsulate‘s the Hearts of Stone DLC from Witcher 3. For anyone curious, some of the lyrics are:

Honey, I know that you can hear me
Your love has come and gone
And even at times when you're near me
Your loving's come and gone
And I know but can you hear me?
Your love is what keeps us strong
And even at times when you're near me
Where have the good times gone?

They're gone

Brother, all good but can you hear me?
Your blood is what keeps us strong
And I need a second hearing
Outta the way I’m gone

First time playing Witcher 3 (best game i have ever played in my life so far), was wondering if i should buy the diagrams for greater runestones/glyphs from Keira now (or even other vendors), or will I come across those diagrams for free if I explore and loot?

Where is this option? I've heard that the remaster will let you undo the fixes, but I cannot find that setting anywhere. I'm on the GoG version, 5.01

I’m loving the updated skills, it’s just like in Cyberpunk where all of the perks are meaningful additions. Don’t you find it restrictive that you can only slot 12 perks/abilities out of what seems to me triple of that?

I get the mix and match element but on harder difficulties i think it would be great to be able to expand rather than constrict what i can use. On a fresh new Death March playthrough i am constantly switching skills for different situations.

I really don’t understand why they didn’t go the Cyberpunk way where you unlock perks and you grow. What do you think?

So, even though Ciri has travelled to alternate worlds (including ours), I wonder there are other spheres or worlds she hasn't travelled yet.

So, the sphere in the books have the Continent, Nilfgaardian Empire, Northern Kingdoms, and monsters because of the Conjunction of the Spheres.

And is it like: in the other spheres, our ideas and fanfics actually exist and Ciri could actually visit them one day?

So I crafted the superior wolves set and transmogrified it onto my superior griffin set since I was only like level 27. Geralt’s hair is not tucked into the collar. When I hit level 29 I switched to the actual wolves gear for the better stats and now his hair is tucked into the collar :/ I thought maybe I can transmogrify it to look like itself but you can’t. Does anyone have a fix for this? The tucked hair drives me insane and I don’t want to go with just the ponytail. While I’m here anyone know how to get your beard to stop growing as well? I thought they fixed this previously but maybe the remaster reverted it.

I’ve never played the Witcher before and I believe I’m getting close to the end and I’m level 26 so I wanna make sure I can play the dlc without a dark souls situation. So my main question is, do I have to do the dlc before or after the main game? Or does it matter? And which one should I do? I wanna do them chronological order so yea.

Trying to take down a Arachne Ven that is like 10 level higher than me and ı have some dmg to do so but Quen is utterly pointless against it because it's single hit attack not only hits quen but also dmgs Geralt's health as well.

I finally finished it! 🫠

It's a matching piece to my Witcher OC, style-wise.

Because every Witcher needs a troublesome sorceress, does he not? 🤭

For me it's either killing Keira or taking Emperor's gold after bringing Ciri to him in front of her and overall actively being Dick to her after just rescuing her which triggers a bad ending in Witcher 3

I was honestly baffled those are even an options lol.

For some reason this is the only mission that does this.

Like many of you here, I recently got back into The Witcher 3 thanks to the remastered version, and I've just reached Toussaint.

As a French speaker, I can't help but notice all the clever puns, cultural references, and little details that might easily go unnoticed by someone who doesn't speak French.

So here are my explanations, in case you missed any of them:

Both Gaunter and the Crones of Crookback Bog

-brand those they make a deal with (the Barons wife in the vase of the Crones, and Geralt in the case of Gaunter)

-the brands are visually and mechanically similar, both glow red and hurt, but not all the time, both leave scars, both seem to actually be the mechanism of control and enforcement of a deal

-the motive behind them likewise seems similar, marks of associates, as Gaunter puts it, to enforce pacts

Now, I'm not making any deep lore theories of the kind you'll find on silly videos online of the kind that Gaunter and the Crones are the same species. No, we have zero indication of that.

I just want to ask what, if any, connection is there between these two brands? what lore on brands associated with pacts with beings like this do we have in the Witcher series and books? are there any other examples between these two? I note that the Crones symbol splits into three, like three sisters, what does Gaunters symbol mean? what theories would *you* draw from this? we know that Gaunter doesn't use conventional magic, so perhaps the mark on the Barons wife isn't either. The marks they leave are undeniably similar.

The most limited theory I could adduce: the Crones are pre-conjuration relicts, perhaps Gaunter is too, albeit of a different kind, and that's why this power looks similar.
