Well a lot of people these days don't like to read for entertainment much so that's normal I guess. They still enhance your enjoyment of the games though so it's not like it was a bad thing to do.

You'll find the year is 2014 and we are eagerly awaiting TW3's release. Bioware has no place here because we still have faith there's a company that can end a vidya trilogy in a satisfying way.

Speaking of the upcoming Witcher 3, I have this theory that Ves is pregnant with Henselt's bastard and that's who "Whoreson Jr." in the leaked game files is referring to. Roche is probably helping her raise it.

>b-but Henselt is sterile
They broke the curse and he got one last rape in before he died. What, you thought all that was just for shock value/pathos? It was a plot hook for future games.

Triss didn't completely pretend to be Yen but she takes advantage of Geralt's addled state to lock him up in her rape dungeon. The point I remember most is Geralt going "LILAC AND GOOSEBERRIES? WHY DOES THIS SMELL INSTANTLY GIVE ME AN ERECTION?" and then Triss sidles up with Yen-stank all over her.

IIRC she was also cagey about their previous relationship to try to egg Geralt along into her pussy but it's been long enough I don't remember the specifics terribly well.

>>187330358
For what it's worth I do like reading for entertainment and I still enjoy the games take on witcha more than the books, generally speaking. Though I thought less of them than the other dude and certainly didn't read all of them before I moved on so it's possible they got better later.

>>187330734
>The point I remember most is Geralt going "LILAC AND GOOSEBERRIES? WHY DOES THIS SMELL INSTANTLY GIVE ME AN ERECTION?" and then Triss sidles up with Yen-stank all over her.
That was only in that quasi-canon comedy side mission. So I don't think that counts.

>IIRC she was also cagey about their previous relationship to try to egg Geralt along into her pussy but it's been long enough I don't remember the specifics terribly well.
I just finished replaying TW1. First thing she says after Geralt fucks her is " A pleasure as always, Witcher". Geralt expresses confusion then Triss implies they've done it a lot before (rather than just a one night stand) and that Geralt has a lot to look forward to once they get back into things (implying both that they had a relationship in the past and that them having one again is inevitable). In Chapter 3 she also pressures him into a relationship with the implication that it's how things used to be before (but graciously insists that if he doesn't feel the same way anymore, she'll " try to understand") while simultaneously telling him it's possible no one could fix his memory and it's better to try to forge his own identity.

It's very well done and except for the part in the prologue very subtle. Makes the amnesia thing more than just a conceit required to explain the world to new players, and adds a twist to the romance subplot that makes it interesting both for people that were already fans for the books, and new people that had no idea what was coming in the next game.

I can't wait to see how CDPR handles the fall out in TW3. Yen is going to be so pissed.

The games take a different tone by virtue of having to be video games and not books. I usually see people claim the first two books (which are actually short story collections combined with a loose plot tying them together) are the best so I'm not sure if you'd like the later ones. But then, maybe the change in tone and focus starting in the novels proper would suit you better? Depends on why you preferred the games over the books.

Unless of course your preference has little to do with story telling elements,and more to do with preferring an interactive medium, in which case it won't matter.

Good heavens, you haven't played Witcher 3 yet? You're in for a treat. And some disappointment, but mostly treats. Though I should talk since I played the Witcher games in a kind of fucky order. Witcher 1 first, never played the enhanced edition, then a little bit of Witcher 2 and inexplicably stopped playing it, and then maybe the first chapter of Witcher 3 and then stopped because it ran like complete garbage on my computer, then back to and completed Witcher 2, then an orgy of Witcher 3 and all the DLC/season pass at once after I upgraded my machine. In the end it sort of worked out fine for me because oddly enough I enjoyed 2 more after having played some of 3.

I also agree that Triss trying to take advantage of Geralt is pretty well done. It's not too mustache twirlingly evil but it shows some of the flaws in her character, even if the flaw is still kind of waifu bait since stealing your dirty underwear so she can huff your ball sweat isn't really on the same level as Yen flaws, but still.

>>187332217
>Good heavens, you haven't played Witcher 3 yet?
I've played it a few times. I was joking about how I found it to be a good game but a shit sequel in terms of how it resolved things. Or rather, didn't.

I like Dijkstra because of his sharp mind and wits but him being the biggest Geralt x Triss shipper in the game only makes him better. Now if only he didn't act like a retard in Reasons of State...

>>187331207
Triss did act opportunistic, no question there, but their whole romance happened because Geralt insisted on it. Most of their romantic interactions happen on his initiative. There are even times when Triss is reluctant and demands that Geralt proves he's serious about them before she commits fully(the ring, how he behaves around Alvin). People give way little credit to Geralt imo. He takes it upon himself to decide individual fates of many people and even the whole kingdoms, he fucks half the Continent in the first game, he is perfectly capable deciding whether he wants to be with Triss or not. She never forced him to do anything and he refused hearing about the past at KM. Triss is there for him to talk about the things he experiences along the way and she encourages him to form a personality outside of her influence saying it should help with the memory loss, which it does. What really seals the deal of him not being a victim is TW2, even after he learns about Yen and remembers some parts of their past, he can still continue to romance Triss and even express love to her. Geralt is a big boy, amnesia or not.

>>187332217
Triss trying to " steal" Geralt is kind of pathetic bad college relationship level flaws. It's sad but not that signficiant and certainly doesn't make her evil. Her major character flaws are her tendency to blindly fall in with authority on the promise of any kind of acceptance, and that's where she does truly bad things. But for some reason no one remembers that stuff. It's because most gamers care way more about waifu character traits than non-waifu related character traits.

Same reason Yen's daddy issues and problems with committed relationships are considered to make her a grey complex character along with Geralt when in reality both Geralt and Yen are both morally fairly black and white good guys outside of the first couple books.

There's probably a lot you could armchair psychologist over about nerds and how much more morally significant they find relationship drama vs. events that steer nations and end or save thousands of lives but instead I'll just say waifufags a shit.

>>187331796
Windows 10 should be negligible in terms of performance differences unless the drivers are hosed or something. Maybe double check the options and make sure it's properly toning shit down. I remember there being some option in W2 which absolutely destroys performance but I can't think of the name of it off the top of my head. Theoretically it should be disabled but maybe something fucky is going on.

>>187332309
Ah, I gotcha. That was part of the disappointment I was talking about. I certainly enjoy W3 but they dropped the ball fairly hard in a few areas. Buddy of mine considers it his favorite game of all time and I could see the reasoning behind that even with the flaws.

Ubersampling is disabled, yeah. Honestly I've had lots of things go wrong after windows 10 installed itself on multiple computers that there's no logical reason should be connected to the OS but it keeps happening. Might be a fluke though. Either way, not sure how to proceed. I had everything on TW2 on high/medium on this computer last time I tried and got around 30 FPS. Now I'm getting 10 on low settings.

Has he played the other games or read the books?

>>187332647
>Her major character flaws are her tendency to blindly fall in with authority on the promise of any kind of acceptance
That's why I find her Lodge across the games subplot amazing. She starts TW1 still working for them, but she gets disillusioned and by the time TW2 ends, depending on the choices, she takes Geralt's side and testifies against them at the Loc Muinne summit. Knowing how whipped she was by them in the books, this is a huge step for her. And in TW3, we can see her trying to find her own place in the world, guided by her own ideals rather than following others. There we finally see the true nature of her idealism and the genuine desire to help others. She also steps up and takes the role of a leader, something that doesn't come easy for her. I think she shows a lot of growth.

In the books I never thought her actions were particularly horrible. People act like she runs the Lodge, but she is a mere follower to Philippa. That doesn't excuse her but she genuinely believed they acted of the greater good. She shows remorse and questions herself during her convo with Nenneke. And let's be real, even if Triss stood up to Phil, there's not much she can do. Philippa outclasses her, she's older, wiser, smarter, more manipulative, stronger, more influential and powerful. Triss can only end up in her sex dungeon or whatever. Also, I see people saying how Triss was ready ot let Ciri be married in Kovir, but failing to mention that even Yen accepted that in the end. That's how formidable Phil is.

>>187333298
well W3 is definitely a better game than the other two, despite the fact that it isn't the best WITCHER game out of the three

>>187333298
He's played all of the games but hasn't read the books. Actually not sure why he hasn't read them since he isn't opposed to reading and he loves the shit out of the games.

I can't wait to see what Radovid's master plan is. No way he's not well aware of the thread Nilfgaard poses. Even the massacre at Loc Muinne must be part of some kind of contingency.

>>187333481
I might agree if they hadn't fucked up in The Witcher 3 with everything either brushed under the rug or her actively crying about Philippa maybe being hurt but, they did. People that have read the books take it hard on Triss because again, people are way more affected by these personal emotional betrayals than conspiracies and war crimes. Philippa does far worse but you expect that from Philippa, so you don't get quite so upset. People that love a good villain even like her for it even as they feel bad for her victims. Triss though doesn't offer much for either the big plot guys (since as you say, she's mostly just a follower in over her head) or the personal emoetional connection guys (who are inevitably rooting for Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer). Thus the disproportionate reaction.

Also I'm sure I've read this exact same post from you before, word for word. So yeah. Gonna talk to other people now.

>>187333537
>well W3 is definitely a better game than the other two,
Depends on how you figure. I think you can make a good argument for any game of the trilogy being the best game of the three, but I'd argue TW2 was the best all around.

>>187333624
Ok see that makes sense. If you haven't read the books then a lot of TW3's flaws in plot terms are easily rationalized away with a simple "Well I don't get it but I'm sure it makes more sense if I'd read the books." Only if you'd read them would you realize that, well, no. It doesn't.

>>187334012
I just want to see the big clashes promised in the open world. The front is actually supposed to move while you play. Imagine say, stumbling on a clash between Knights of the Flaming Rose and Nilfgaardian cavalry and either walking away or intervening and changing who owns that stretch of No-Man's Land. I think I'm even more excited for stuff like that than the injury system they promised for hunting big monsters.

>>187334246
The Lodge situation gets resolved at the end of TW2 imo. There isn't much left there. They are declared enemies, they are persecuted and not much is left for them. Their plans failed. Triss is not actively crying over Philippa being hurt, she expresses slight concern at best and her being more of the side of her former colleges over Radovid, the madman torturing them to death, isn't that surprising. Even Yen leans more toward them.

The main reason some people vilify Triss are the waifu wars from TW3. Her worst action in the books is refusing to clear Yen's name(actually Philippa does and Triss is too much of coward to stand up to her) and going with Lodge's plans to marry Ciri(which Yen also agrees on later).

And Triss' positive actions in both the books and the games trump any bad thing she did.

>>187335145
>(which Yen also agrees on later).
Oh come on now. I wasn't going to respond to you but Yennefer agrees to that plan in the same way Poland agreed to be divided between the USSR and Germany. That's just silly.

>>187335426
Yeah, but it goes to show the authority Philippa has. We know how much Yen loves Ciri and that she would do anything for her, yet she is forced to accept their will. Expecting Triss(who is not exactly known for her bravery) to go against Phil is unrealistic. Blaming Triss for the Lodge's actions is like blaming Romania or Hungary for WW2.

>>187336983
I think TW3 wins best Geralt if you leave out Blood and Wine where he turns into generic RPG protagonist. But if you don't then TW2 was most true to his characterization. Which is very impressive considering the array of choices the player is given. It has to be very hard to make all those mutually exclusive actions something Geralt would conceivably do.

I hope CDPR has a huge financial crisis in the future. They seem to do their best work when operating under threat of bankruptcy.

>>187337406
Still not as bad as the Melitelé's heart quest in TW2.

>>187337227
HoS has a far better story than BaW, more interesting plot and characters. Atmosphere wise Toussaint is pretty great and HoS while having moments like the wedding and the Everec mansion is same old Novigrad.

Feels wise, the ending of BaW is quite emotional and having Triss visit is a pretty big deal for me. She gives me more feels than anything.

>>187337341
Not showing up would mean she's showing weakness and being hurt. She came there to fake indifference.

>>187337832
>Atmosphere wise Toussaint is pretty great
Personally I found the colors over saturated and I don't like accordion music so I guess I'm biased. I actually can't remember a single piece of music from Blood and Wine though, besides remembering the general atmospheric theme annoying me.

>Feels wise, the ending of BaW is quite emotional and having Triss visit is a pretty big deal for me
Standard biodrone response then. Have Geralt directly address the player then shove in their waifu. 10/10 game of the year.

>Not showing up would mean she's showing weakness and being hurt. She came there to fake indifference.
That would imply she still has hope or cares what they think about her. Given her actions in Sword of Destiny even before she got a lot of character development in later books, she'd go the avoidant route. She only feigned indifference during break ups there when circumstances forced them together. Otherwise she actively avoided him. And this would be a way bigger deal than any of those.

Ah who are we kidding, she'd an hero as soon as she saw how happy Ciri was with her new mama/big sis in this reality.

In TW1, why wasn't the face of the Scoia'tael Toruviel instead of Yaevinn? Yaevinn has always and will always be a huge asshole. They try to make it a hard choice but when the two sides are selling the same shit, but one salesman is Siegfried and the other is Yaevinn, there's just no contest.

I mean, I just put her there for shits and giggles. I doubt Philippa and Dijkstra would care to show up either let alone be all friendly.

Thjey all share the same texture(Triss, Yen, whores...except Ciri). Philippa is thicker than Triss but you can't tell from this angle and I can't show too much here either due to NSFW not being allowed.

Maybe things actually have changed here. Oh well, your filter a shit anyway.

I think they may have had more body types in general but they were less detailed and I think they all shared textures too except for Ves. Someone at CDPR likes tattoos and scars.

>>187340695
There is skinny(Yen, Syanna), moderate(Keira, Shani), thicc(Triss), thicker(Phil) and fat(I only saw this one thanks to mods)

There's a fat nude body that I never saw in the game but it's there. Using Sbui you can view it(there is also Shani lingerie model). Phil doesn't have a unique nude body, it's the body one of the hookers uses. I can make a comparison, but not now, I'm not on my main PC.

Can't decide if I want gigni or caretaker in weather control Dagon deck. I know caretaker is the more widely accepted choice but people play control Dagon less these days anyway, and gigni last game against discard Skellige which is the ideal caretaker matchup ended up being an 18 point play by roasting a pirate captain. I guess the ideal move is stealing a skirmisher or jacking his Olgierd in round 1 but gigni's nice, especially with shit like Caranthir to force rowstacking. I probably should update my list though since I'm still running mardromeme for god's sake.

I bought the Witcher Enhanced Edition yesterday and I am about to start my first playthrough. Can anyone recommend me some good mods for this game? I have heard the combat is very horrible and can be fixed with proper mods.

Any general tips would be appreciated too. And the books are not mandatory to understand the story, right? I really don't want to spend months reading the books, before playing the games...

>>187353126
Books definitely aren't mandatory. If anything they would come into play more for Witcher 2 and 3, but even those are fine without.

Dunno about mods as I can't say as I ever played it with mods. There's a slight rhythm game nature to Witcher 1's combat which isn't too horrible in the grand scheme of things so it might be worth trying vanilla first to see if it even bothers you that much. It has more stance changing than the other games, too. Most horrible part I remember about the combat is the fact that you're going to be running around in that goddamn swamp for 20 hours. There are a lot of cool quests and shit that happens in that swamp, but it doesn't change the fact that you're going to be in there for fucking ever.

>>187353126
The Witcher Overhaul Project
Rise of the White Wolf Enhanced Edition

That's all you need, no need for books. The actual combat is comfy. The worst part of the game are the design decisions in how it relates to questing, like the swamp shit anon above mentioned

>>187353409
Alright, thanks a lot, I think I am just going to grab the visual mods/re-textures. No gameplay overhauls for the first playthrough. And I am looking forward to this Swamp area.

>>187353951
Thanks for the mods suggestion. Both the re-texture project and UI overhaul look very lore-friendly.

>>187353126
There's nothing wrong with the combat, it's just not an ARPG like the other two. Gamers today are just kiddies that only like third person shooters.

>Any general tips would be appreciated too. And the books are not mandatory to understand the story, right?
Not mandatory to get the absolute basics no.

>I really don't want to spend months reading the books, before playing the games...
They're not that long.

>>187353126
Play the first and second games then read the books after Geralt gets his memory back. Also play TW2 twice or you haven't actually finished it.

>>187356004
You'd be better off reading nothing than a wiki entry or whatever. They're often really inaccurate. You're just going to be coming here annoying people with hit about how Triss is a wraith resurrected by the Wild Hunt or how all sorceresses are actually hags hiding under an illusion or Geralt having elder blood and other bullshit.

Well for starters, the Witcher doesn't have lore, it's got backstory. Novels try not to introduce much setting detail that's totally useless and just sits in an encyclopeda to the side like a Bioware game. And Sapkowski wasn't big on world building anyway since he was never trying to emulate tabletop RPG campaign.

Pedantic debate on subgenre definitions in 3...2...

>>187356939
Your Google-fu may be questionable because the very first thing I turned up sounds extremely similar to your situation. Dude played with maxed settings on W7 and then it ran like hell in W10. Apparently his solution was running the GoG version as opposed to Steam since Steam was giving it the shits which sounds iffy to me but if that's an option for you it may be a shot. If a GoG copy isn't an option, try disabling the Steam overlay. Steam, settings, in-game, then remove the tick for enable the Steam overlay while in-game.

No idea if Steam's causing it like that dude or if disabling the Steam overlay would help, but on the off chance it IS Steam doing it that would be my first stab and troubleshooting. Also don't hack my IP bro, just spreading truthbombs.

>>187357221
Pretty much what the other anon said word for word. Generally speaking I like witcha's setting better in large part because it mostly avoids loredumps. One thing that tends to kill fantasy for me is if it goes too far up its own ass too quickly.

>>187358407
Also to expand on the Google-fu, use quotes. Got wrapped up telling you about what I found rather than giving a link and how I found it.

https://steamcommunity.com/app/20920/discussions/0/535152511373811251/

The quotes being key. If you're not aware that forces Google to look for the thing in quotes, so in this case it's specifically looking for Witcher followed by 2 rather than just typing witcher 2 which would give you Witcher 3 thread where someone is talking about 2cat.

>>187358407
>Apparently his solution was running the GoG version as opposed to Steam since Steam was giving it the shits which sounds iffy to me but if that's an option for you it may be a shot.
You know TW1 ran kind of shitty for me in steam this time too, but I hadn't played it on that laptop before and just figured it was poorly optimized. I'll give it a try,

>googlefu
In my defense, your results probably aren't the same as mine. Maybe I biased it towards Wild Hunt while searching for sfm porn or something.

>Also don't hack my IP bro, just spreading truthbombs.
If you're serious I really want to see you justify those.

That's what's holding me back. On the one hand it sounds like it would be an inexpensive casual time waster since I would never do raids or anything. On the other hand I don't really give much of a shit about the TES setting and MMOs typically drive me up the wall. Probably won't pick it up because of that and because of the Xcom 2 expansion, bigass Gwent patch, Divinity Original Sin 2, and Dishonored 2 expansion all coming in the immediate future. Think there might even be some stuff I'm forgetting but I'm not sure, like I think Battletech is supposed to be this year.

>>187359980

Wouldn't that be a positive? Most of the grognards like me hate it for being another nail in the coffin of everything that made it unique back in the Morrowind days.

Is Gwent actually any good? I don't trust CDPR with game balance and all the "free to play" stuff makes me nervous. Though tbf I'm also biased that we got this instead of an enhanced edition.

I'd still call it a negative. Being casually in to the setting would be a positive and really enjoying the setting would make it a negative again like you mentioned. Morrowind was the only TES where I enjoyed the setting and lore but even that one I didn't go wild with it.

>>187360220
I'm much more of a Gwent player than I am a Witcher player since I love me some goddamn card games, but asking if it's good is a bit of a loaded question right now. Currently it's pretty decent if you play it casually but at the top end there are some dominant decks which admittedly is true of all card games, but in Gwent's case since there's so little RNG (Even for card drawing due to small deck size, constant mulligans and blacklist system, and tutor and card draw cards) that top end play almost always plays out the same way every single time. They're putting out a huge patch that's going to change something like 70% of the cards and add more cards in a week or two so shit will get shaken up then.

I can tell you in all honest it's probably the most free to play card game out there though. The "Deck cost" in individual card crafting materials is low and uniform so it's not like there are any wildly expensive decks, and you can very easily get a pack of cards a day and can reach 2 packs of cards a day without much more effort. Super free to play friendly, you just want to make sure you don't burn yourself out getting fucked up the ass before you start getting a card pool and learn how to play. Limiting yourself to the 100 and maybe the 75 ore daily tiers per day is probably best, then once you've got a better deck you can go hog wild if you want.

>>187360790
The campaign idea is still weird as fuck.

>Geralt: We have to stop Vilgefortz the only way I know how. By defeating him in a children's card game.

>>187361125
Yeah, I'm not too sure how the campaign will pan out. Mildly annoyed to hear that the paid campaign can only be purchased with cash, since I dumped some money on cards with the thought of "Oh, well I enjoy playing the game now and if I collect all the cards early I can just stockpile ore for the campaign!" but such is life. Kind of hoping they let you craft the cards (Since there will be singleplayer-only campaign cards, but also something like 20 cards you earn from the campaign that can be used in multiplayer) with scrap, in which case I'll just use my huge mountain of ill-gotten scrap to get the cards and probably watch the campaign on Youtube or something.

>>187362527
Yeah frankly I found the whole "oh we'll fix all the plot holes and glaring omissions with a paid card mini game" thing insulting.

>The main "family" from the books features more heavily and actualy behaves like they like each other

>>187371984
Those giant puffy nipples that practically cover the whole tit(especially if the tits are small). It's rare and hot to me, especially if the girl is beautiful.

>>187372216
Yeah but that's not a deformity, that's just yet another of the myriad and beautiful forms of the areola.

>>187372216
>>187372306
I miss when the Witcher series had nipple diversity. Fuck the racial stuff, I want to see more than one kind of tit. TW2 had every color and multiple size and texture combinations. Every tit in TW3 has the same sized/shaped nipple and areola. Just ranging from pink to light brown.

A step back desu senpai

>>187372306
Not technically, but I'm talking freakishly large.

>>187372435
I know the kind you mean. Where it looks like they skinned half an orange, painted it brown, and taped it to their breast?

Still not a deformity, still beautiful.

>>187372410
This. Not only that, but the bodies all look similar and the texture is the same in TW3. I miss Triss' puffy nipples and hairy vagina from TW2.

>>187372492
Yeah, that's the one. Sure, not a deformity but it's close. Kind of like having a giant nose or a small cock or tits.

>>187372550
Even TW1 had visible bush.

>>187372647
I still have to disagree. Small tits are a matter of taste. Tits are always beautiful as long as they aren't horribly scarred or something. It's just what you prefer. Though honestly I pretty much like them all. Just bored of the "standard" nipple that you see in everything. Or do you like them precisely because they seem ugly to you?

>>187372683
They toned it down bush wise not to upset the mass audience. Fuck that, I like a good bush. Triss had one, Ves had one, dryad had one, vampire chicks...I want hot bushes DLC.

>Tits, ass and vagina
This is the epitome of video game discussions.

>>187372760
Small tits are fine, but I'm talking extremes here. Like having no tits at all or having a 5cm cock.

I like it when it stands out on an otherwise perfect girl. You could say that I find them ugly yet beautiful at the same time, therefore arousing.

>>187373001

>>187373030
So it is a fetishistic thing for you then? Fair enough.

>>187373043
>Yennefer and Ciri probably have very little hair cuz elven genes I guess.
I always imagined Ciri to be very unkept down there. Yen I think trims.

>>187373175
Did I imagine elves being said to have little body hair? Because if it's true, Yennefer's a quarter elf and Ciri has a bunch of elf alleles recapitulated in a human body. I'd think they'd be quite spare. I may prefer a good bush personally but we must exercise bush realism.

>>187373132
Yeah, definitely. Like I said initially, small imperfections on an otherwise beautiful girl turn me on. That's why I enjoy Triss' hideous ears.

>>187373175
Ciri's bush is worse Geralt's lice-filled beard.

>>187373287
I've never even heard of this fetish. It's interesting. Any other examples? I didn't even know about Triss's ears, they're not visible with the default outfit.

>>187373271
I don't remember elf hairiness being mentioned but they do seem to be less hairy as a general rule. Still, one quarter elf isn't enough to make a significant difference, maybe a slightly thinner bush. With Ciri it could be true I guess. The color of Ciri's pubes is a bigger mystery.

She has really dark eyebrows. And in the books her hair is darker than in the games. So probably pretty dark.

I don't know, it ranges from having an ugly mole or a scar to maybe missing a limb in the most extreme cases. I don't even know if the fetish has a name, most likely it does, but I don't know it.

Triss' default hair didn't require ears so they made them a bit too large when they had to slap them on later for her alt outfit.

I hate it when faggots pretend to have read the books or played the previous games and regurgitate the shit they read from some other faggot that's the same as them. Reddit is full of that ilk.

It's fucking everywhere. I don't even remember people doing that shit for ASOIAF in /got/ threads. It's weird. Are gamers so illiterate that not only can they not read a book to completion, but they think finishing a book series is such a triumph that they should pretend they've done it anyway?

People use it as a thing of prestige. They feel it makes them bigger fans I guess. People like to feel superior even if it's based on lying to themselves. Same way I never understood the obsession with karma on reddit. Reddit is a weird place to me and I'm a weird guy myself.

If they love the franchise that much maybe they should just actually try reading them.

Though to be fair at the worst of the waifuwar I'm not sure the thread was any better than this for being 10 times as fast with 20 times as many posters. Witcher threads were best far between releases until the lead up to Hearts of Stone somehow killed them.

>>187376325

>>187376435
I agree. I like /wtc/ best when it moves at a moderate speed. When you burn several threads a day it loses some of its charm imo.

Still, most people have moved on. It's been over two years and not many new people will play the game to keep the influx of new players healthy. I've seen so many posters come and go, and there were a few times when I was about to let it die due to extreme inactivity, but suddenly a burst of activity happens and somehow it lives another day.

Also, people have discussed pretty much everything many times over, hardly ever a new topic comes up. Hell, even the pubes thing. I think I saw it discussed at least 20 different times since I'm here. I think it's a mater of weeks before it's done for good.

An old dedicated fan comes back to reminisce or share some new insights, tries to connect with others doing the same, finds a /meg/ tier wasteland; and failing, leaves. So /wtc/ limps on.

There's actually textual support for that one. It's not conclusive but it's there.

kek there are people that think he had amnesia in the books? Do they think they've "read the books" because they believe the games are a remake and not a sequel?

>>187377502
>There's actually textual support for that one.
I don't see it. I don't get why people assume the magic thing to be malicious. Magic can be used for seduction in far more subtle ways. Also the context of the passage with Geralt needing company as well as the words "brief relationship" along with how Geralt treats Triss and how he even takes responsibility for what has happened between them during the conversation where he turns her down. I don't see Triss being written like that, she's more of a naive, idealistic coward than a scheming rapist. Also, I don't buy that Sapkowski wrote his protagonist as an oblivious rape victim. And of course, love potion, drink and that shit is never mentioned anywhere.

They haven't played the previous games or read the books. They see the amnesia thing being mentioned and they mix it up. Then they want to act smart and be waifufaggots.

>>187377728
I'm just saying that while I see that as a stretch it's not totally ridiculous and utterly without basis like the other stuff you mentioned. For my part I took the "with the help of a little magic" thing to probably be more along of Yen's handy viagra spell than a roofie. Just made him extra horny at a vulnerable moment. Not exactly rape. Although, not very nice, either.

>>187377657
>One day we will be posting angrily in the Witcher /tv/ thread years
I don't know. I don't watch a lot of TV. I recently binge watched GoT for the first time and before that I think the last show I watched were The Sopranos and that was 10+ years ago. I'm not too interested in the show. I'll only check it out because it's the Witcher but I don't see myself going to threads about it, but who knows...

>>187377890
>I'll only check it out because it's the Witcher but I don't see myself going to threads about it, but who knows...
If they bother to cast Triss for the first season instead of waiting you'll be there and you know it. Given it's tv and execs love forced love triangles i wouldn't be surprised if they do just that and have Triss appear earlier and much more prominently than in the books.

>>187377871
Triss' seduction of Geralt in the books is a shitty thing to do because it's opportunistic and she only did it out of jealousy and curiosity, and Yen is her close friend, so yeah, not the nicest thing, but far from rape.

I always remember Keira's game quest. You can describe it easily as Keira seduced Geralt with the help of a little magic. She conjured up the clothes, horses, created the mood...but there wasn't anything malicious about it and there is nothing wrong in trying to seduce a person you like. The whole thing is described as seduction. Seduction is not rape.

I feel it's out of basis if you closely look at the context of the passage and the whole first part of BoE and how Geralt treats Triss. You don't invite your rapist to take care of your daughter among other things. Not to mention he openly takes responsibility for it. People give no credit to Geralt sometimes.

>>187377947
I don't think Triss will be there in the first season. I think they will cover some of the short stories in the first one and start the Saga from the second. I don't want them giving Triss some made up role she didn't have in the books and I certainly don't want a love triangle. Besides, whatever actress they hire for Triss, there's no way I could ever view her as the Triss I love.

>>187378289

Yeah it could have been that too but Triss never struck me as subtle nor as that being the kind of thing Sapkowski would bother to mention. But it's a single line so again, mostly speculation.

> and how Geralt treats Triss. You don't invite your rapist to take care of your daughter among other things.
Well obviously Geralt wouldn't know in this instance if his boner was magical and not just him being his usual horny self. It's not like he hasn't done dumb shit before. Look how he treated Essi.

>>187378289
>Besides, whatever actress they hire for Triss, there's no way I could ever view her as the Triss I love.
In two years we'll see posts of you disavowing this post and being shocked at how perfectly the show makers got her.

>>187378289
>I always remember Keira's game quest. You can describe it easily as Keira seduced Geralt with the help of a little magic.
I played Geralt as monogomous once Yennefer was back in the picture anyway. Seemed more in character.

Gotta wonder how many sex cards Yennefer collected back in Nilfgaard before she was captured though.

>>187378381
>It's not like he hasn't done dumb shit before. Look how he treated Essi.
Actually come to think of it, him fucking Yennefer on Belleteyn was actually kinda scummy. She repeatedly said she didn't want to but just couldn't stop if he pressed the issue.

Geralt is kind of an asshole. He probably assumed what happened with Triss was entirely his fault. Even felt guilty about it. The perfect crime.

>>187378381
But that would imply that Sapkowski wrote him as an oblivious rape victim and I jsut don't see it. Especially considering the whole tragic infatuation and general way Triss is written. She might not be the subtle seductive type, but she's no manipulative raping one either. And the line is very tame and coupled with their other interactions...I just don't see it.

>>187378440
No way, at least physically. Game Triss will forever remain my image of the character. A real human actress breaks my immersion.

>>187378510
I play a super monogamous Geralt. He never cheated on Triss once during the whole trilogy, but I did one horndog playthorugh to see all the waifus. Hell, I even did one Yen playthrough.

>>187378648
>But that would imply that Sapkowski wrote him as an oblivious rape victim and I jsut don't see it.
Well again I'm hesitant to describe it as rape. I was just playing devil's advocate on that point.

They'll find a big titted ginger with a wide face easily enough. Especially since the UK has tax breaks for filming there.

Correct way to play Geralt is emotionally retarded horndog in TW1, emotionally retarded but slightly confused and guilty guy in TW2 with only one significant deviation from Triss, then monogomous autistic waifufag in TW3.

>>187378784
>then monogomous autistic waifufag in TW3.
Specifically a monogomous autistic Yenfag. I should have made that clear.

I mean, if she actually used any type of mind control or a drug, that would definitely be a rape, but such a thing was never mentioned. Seducing a man when he's down and vulnerable is shady but it's no rape. But yeah, we have our views, we don't have to agree.

>>187378784
>They'll find a big titted ginger with a wide face easily enough.
It doesn't matter. I'll know she's a real person pretending to be someone else. Immersion broken.

You can play Geralt however you prefer, but I play him as someone who gets attached to Triss early in the first game, develops a relationship with her and falls in love. Then his memory comes back and so does his love for Yen, so he's conflicted. He parts with Triss and goes to see how things stand between him and Yen, but after meeting Triss in Novigrad he realizes she is the one for him and they fuck of to Kovir. That's my Geralt.

>>187379102
>I mean, if she actually used any type of mind control or a drug, that would definitely be a rape, but such a thing was never mentioned.
I mean it gets a bit semantic. Like sleeping with a drunk girl is skeevy but is it rape? If it is, it's a lesser form of rape than drugging someone and fucking them while they're passed out. I think what we're dealing with is more the former than the latter.

>It doesn't matter. I'll know she's a real person pretending to be someone else.
You know Jaimi Barbakoff isn't really Triss right. She's not even American.

>>187379102
>Then his memory comes back and so does his love for Yen,

There's actually an ambiguous line in a sequence in TW1 that could be read as implying Geralt misses Yen and Ciri on some level despite not remembering they exist in explicit terms. Only noticed it recently. Probably deliberately ambiguous though, like Triss's "So you love me and have forgotten about her?" thing being easy to read as referring to Shani on the surface, but at the same time maybe actually being a slip referring to Yennefer.

>>187379307
Depending on how drunk the girl is. If she's drunk but willing and in a good mood, that's not rape. If she's passed out and you fuck her, than it's as different story, but yeah, we're dealing to something more similar to the former.

>Jaimi Barbakoff
I was talking more about the physical appearance. Besides, Jaimi is not my Triss, I play in Polish. Polish Triss is perfection imo.

>>187379402
>So you love me and have forgotten about her?
Yeah, I always view that line as if it refers to Yen. it's probably never intended too when the first game released, but given the context of the books and all three games, it fits way better.

And Geralt missing Yen and Ciri on a subconscious level would also be realistic, they are the two most important figures in his life.

>>187379782
>I was talking more about the physical appearance. Besides, Jaimi is not my Triss, I play in Polish. Polish Triss is perfection imo.
Do you actually speak Polish?

>>187379782
>it's probably never intended too when the first game released,
It's hard to tell. The writing in TW1 is such an uneven mix of mediocrity with nuggets of stupidity and brilliance.

>>187379889
No, but I'm a Slav and I do understand some words and it's fairly easy to follow. Plus, I like the consistency of voices between games and I prefer Polish Geralt and Triss. Also, it increases my immersion and gives me that nice slav feel.

>>187379948
They clearly didn't know what they wanted and I highly doubt they planned a trilogy, so yeah, I tend to be more lenient when judging the first game. That line though fits way better for Yen, so whatever they intended, I don't give a fuck, I interpret it like that.

>>187380369
>and I prefer Polish Geralt and Triss.
Well, Doug Cockle and Jaimi Barbakoff are the two worst actors in the English version.

>and I highly doubt they planned a trilogy, so yeah,
It's pretty clear that they never planned a trilogy at any point. They may or may not have always wanted to do a trilogy, but they sure as hell didn't plan it ahead much. Only reason it's not a complete mess is that they hired better writers than Bioware had.

Lambert is the worst one for me. Cockle is alright, but, Polish Geralt is just perfect imo. He sounds badass without trying to do a rough voice. Jaimi is just average, sometimes she sucks and sometimes I like her, she's not very consistent.

I think they planned a trilogy since TW2. It plants the seed for future story and it was clearly written with sequel in mind.

Lambert sounds like a whiny prick to me and I think that's exactly what they were going for.

>Jaimi is just average, sometimes she sucks and sometimes I like her, she's not very consistent.
I think the fake American accent must make her struggle. Would explain the inconsistency. Plus in her defense, some of her starting lines in TW2's prologue are crap.

>I think they planned a trilogy since TW2. It plants the seed for future story and it was clearly written with sequel in mind.
They really failed to reap then.

>>187381280
>Lambert sounds like a whiny prick
His voice is too high pitched. He sounds like he didn't hit puberty to me.

>Jaimi
When I first heard her in TW3, I thought they changed the actress again, but whatever, she alright for a playthrough or two. Polish Triss is for life.

>They really failed to reap then.
Tell me about it. I remember having several save files prepared for import, thinking which one should I go with first, but nothing came out of it. Political story was swept aside. I get why they did it, TW3 was the first Witcher game for a lot of people and it needed to be as standalone as possible. They could have done a far better job with it though and give something to the older fans too and not completely fuck them over for new console market.

>>187381607

I don't like it either. TW2 is my favorite story wise. I don't think there's much to get in TW3's plot though. Find Ciri and kill the bad guys is all you need to know on the most basic level some people play the game anyway.

People have little patience to read, they have little patience playing older games and TW1 and TW2 are more hardcore compared to TW3. Most people just want easy entertainment.

>>187382000

But what's there doesn't make sense. If anything it being a sequel helped it because it makes people that haven't played the rest of the games or read the books less likely to question plot holes.

>>187382091
Dark Souls was a huge success and it's not easy. People will play it just to say they've played it if it has enough inertia behind it. They won't play it long but who cares, you'll have their 60 bucks and most people barely play any of the games they own anyway.

>TW1
Is the easiest game in the series.

>>187381880
So...here?

>>187382448
No, a different cesspit.

>>187382121
I wouldn't say it doesn't make sense, but it's not really done that well. Wild Hunt is very underdeveloped and the game focused more on the muh feels moments with Ciri than their enemies. I like muh feels moments, but I also like an interesting villains and story and TW2 had the best, morally ambiguous villains in the series. Phil, Letho, Henselt, Shilard, Dethmold, Sile, Loredo...all brilliant and all with realistic motivations. TW3 has one liner Eredin, I like succubi whores Imlerith, crazy Radovid, generic evil creep Whoreson, but to be fair it also has Gaunter, The Crones.

I think they just wanted to keep it simple, at least as far as the main quest goes. TW2 needed several playthorughs to full get the story and some people complained it was too political.

Third act and Ciri stopping the Frost is also very stupid stupid, so I tend to ignore it as much as I can.

>>187382590

>The least important part of the witcher series is the main story so let's just not develop it much
-Marcin "Please gib B12 shots" Iwinski

>>187382629
What do you mean? I get why they did those muh feels moments. With the main story revolving so heavily over Ciri, they needed to make the players care for her. That led to her flaws being swept under the rug with the perfect daughterfu remaining. But I'm not gonna lie, I like the Geralt/Ciri scenes.

>>187382590
>TW2 needed several playthorughs to full get the story and some people complained it was too political.
This is why devs shouldn't listen to what consumers say. TW2 saved the studio and put them in the mainstream. Reversing course afterwards is stupid.

>>187382725
The biggest muh feels moment for Ciri is the Empress ending, which is full on retarded with none of the characters involved acting like themselves and the plot bending over backwards just to allow it at all.

I think finding her is a more emotional moment. I also prefer the snow fight and the lab. But I'm not a big fan of the Empress ending. It is hard on the feels though.

About TW2, I agree. I love that game to death, in many ways it's my favorite in the series.

>>187382898
TW2 may well be the best written game ever made and I'll always be sad the studio that made it chose to abandon that way of doing things. The moments of brilliance in TW3 and all the set up from TW2 just makes it grate all the more.

They won't. TW3 did far better than TW2 so most likely they'll follow its example, even if I'd argue that it would have done just as well if not better if they'd stuck to a more TW2 style formula.

Cyberpunk is also burdened with a lack of a real protagonist and is a tabletop setting and not a novel, so their writers have less to work with. Their own work has seen mixed success. The Philip Strenger stuff was all great and totally original, but the Detlaff crap in Blood and Wine felt like it came from another company entirely.

Did you kill Iocaste, /wtc/?

>>187396694
Yes, a dangerous monster is a dangerous monster, first or the last of its species, with white scales or green. Monsters are a disease and Geralt is the cure.

>>187396694
I did, and was rustled by how this ostensibly morally ambiguous quest was fucking decided black-and-white when the ominous music was playing when i was fucking it up. So stupid

>>187397006
>>187397081
I killed it too. But that nobleman was pissed and said that he will make all herbalists and alchemists hate me. The reavers, on the other hand, said that they will help me deal with the guilds and artisans. How much does this affect prices and trading in the game?

>>187398169
Nothing major.

>>187398169
I don't remember the price difference but merchants prices go down, alch/herbalists prices go up, and vise-versa depending on your choice. Killing the thing is the more practical thing to do because of how useless alch/herbalists are at this point of the game

>>187399229
Hey it's Triss, Geralt, and that Elf

>>187399314
You don't like Iorvetho?

I always got the impression Triss fucked Iorveth.

>>187399054
So it seems that killing the basilisk is much more practical and beneficial. I usually have all the potions i need by the end of the main storyline, and a discount when crafting grandmaster gear is really useful since it's expensive af.

>>187399594
I love Iorveth, shame CDPR doesn't

>>187399594
All the Scoia'tael should be sent to Drakenborg death camp in Redania and executed like the terrorists they are.

They never even talked to each other.

>>187399783
Yeah, a great injustice has been done to him. He'll probably get a Gwent campaign for what is worth.

>>187399901
All hail king Radovid

>>187400143
theres a line which says they spent some time with eachother i think triss says it

and she is a slut so they probably fucked

I don't remember that. When does that happen? They see him when they arrive at Flotsam, and later she gets kidnapped. If you go down the Iorveth's path you can find him half dead and after they save him Triss teleports him somewhere to get treated and comes back.

Sorry, I don't see it. Triss is only slut for Geralt and Iorveth faps to Saskia exclusively.

>>187389710
>I don't get it. What did they make him do?
Pay real world money for an online children's card game.

>>187393635
Triss is a bigger bitch unless you really value words over actions. Besides, Yen is really tame in the game.

>>187393778
No but everyone else can.

>>187396694
Of course.

>>187397081
Blood and Wine is bad.

>>187399783
Never 4get

>>187400284
>>187400813
You're thinking of best elf bro Cedric. I don't know if they fucked but Triss probably flirted with him a lot to get him to help her ransack Silé's place.

>Triss is only slut for Geralt
Phil says hi.

>>187401153
I value Triss' actions. Directly saved Geralt's life 7 times, shows tremendous growth during the trilogy, helps innocent people in need, gets tortured for info about Dandelion, comes up with a plan to use Dudu as Menge, helps with the battle of KM, helps locate the Lodge members, helps Ciri during her transition, helps witchers defeat Salamandra and take their secrets back... And she's an absolute sweetheart while doing it.

>>187401384
oh thats right

i only played it twice and that was years ago

>>187401501
Even if I accept your count she's still hurt Geralt more than Yennefer and done less to help. I mean, you don't have to like either one of them but if Yen's a bitch then so is Triss. Again, unless you care more about tact than deeds.

>>187401384
I liked how Geralt gets all jealous when Cedric shows interest in Triss. I doubt Triss has any interest in Cedric though, why would she when she finally has Geralt's wee wee to play with.

>Phil says hi
That's pure lesbian love :3

>>187401609
Don't even try to argue with the Triss spammer over this. better posters than you have done it for thousands of words and achieved nothing.

>got TW2 working again
>get chills as soon as Geralt steps out of the tent and the music starts up
>get them again when the sorceress them starts up before Foltest and Geralt run into Letho in the solar

Why is TW2 so perfect bros?

>>187401609
When did she hurt Geralt? The man is only alive thanks to her. I'm not that anon though, I never said Yen's a bitch nor do I want to take credit away from her. She died for Geralt for fucks sake. Yen's a cool gal, but I find Triss more interesting as a character and her interactions with Geralt and how he acts with her are more to my liking.

>>187401772
Who is arguing? We're just having a friendly exchange of ideas, there's no animosity on my part.

>>187402005
>Who is arguing?
Argument doesn't necessarily imply anger in English. But it's still pointless because you've heard it all before and never moved an inch on anything.

>>187401961
Story and characters. This trailer always gets me hyped for the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB_1hGDuG58

>>187402074
I guess so. And yeah, I've pretty much heard all there is when it comes to the great waifu war. I've debated countless Yenfriends, heard many different perspectives, read the books, played the games and my opinions on Triss are pretty much set in stone at this point. I do enjoy talking about her still though.

>>187402162
>story and characters
>my favorite character isn't even in it but it's still objectively better than TW3
>tfw favorite character will never be in best game

That trailer is excellent. They never made anything like that for TW3. Too cerebral for the mainstream console market I guess.

>>187402446
>read the books,
Did you finally get around to that, really?

>I do enjoy talking about her still though.
Nonetheless you're not generally very fun to talk to about that. Other topics, sure. But when it comes to Triss the lack of responsiveness and iron clad formula of replies makes it feel more like talking to a waifu-themed chatbot than a human being.

>>187402162
>>187402506
Was Bamco the secret hero of the Witcher games?

>>187402506
Yeah, that conversation should have been in game imo. Still a great trailer and always pumps me up for TW2 politics.

Yen is mentioned in TW2 but yeah, I'd hardly call that a significant role. If they ever do a remake of TW1(they won't) I'd like it to have some additions to the story. I think it would be really fun to play as amnesiac Yen, during her travels with Letho and his gang. It would be a few hour addition to tW1's story and it would give people something new to look forward to other than just the remake.

>>187402919
>Yen is mentioned in TW2 but yeah, I'd hardly call that a significant role.
No dialogue, doesn't count. Doesn't even have an in-game model.

>I think it would be really fun to play as amnesiac Yen, during her travels with Letho and his gang.
I was going to say I don't see how they'd fit that in but the game is already pretty meandering desu so why the fuck not. bring on the male sex cards.

>>187402919
Sure and then they can rewrite TW2 to have the cut Dol Blathana act and do an enhanced edition of TW3 where Act 3 makes sense and characters besides Geralt get focus like in TW2.

>>187402639
I read them a while ago. Not SoS though.

Well, I defined my opinions on Triss to what they are now. There were changes along the way, but now yeah...and it's not like I don't reply to the same kinds of posts anyway.

>>187403059
>I was going to say I don't see how they'd fit that
I don't know, make it a separate story. It would be 4-5 hours long and cover what Yen was about during that time. Letho mentions they got into all kinds of trouble, that would be fun to see.

>>187403178
Ah...I wish...
