So I don't want to rush through that because it will mostly be content I've never seen before; parts of CH3 from what I understand too. CH1 I've been skipping cutscenes and doing not too many side questions, just enough to get XP. But fuck, out of nowhere the day or so I started my replay 6-7 things came up over these two weeks that are time consuming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmarBradley Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 my GOG preload download and installation is finished....... now the waiting begins Eh, I'm sick of third party apps in gaming, I'll wait to release for DL/installation, it'll take 30-40 minutes, nbd.Also, just saw a 30 second preview for what looks to be a short cinematic film coming out May 14th (tomorrow), should be cool.

NachoLZ Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Do I need to play 1 and 2? Im looking forward to this game but please be honest to play them fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bran Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Do I need to play 1 and 2? Im looking forward to this game but please be honest to play them fast.From all the reviews it seems cdpr did a good job telling the back story for those who haven't played the first two through cut scenes and dialogue a lot of the reviewers never played the first two either so you should be able to jump in no problems. If you have any questions about something just post here we can help you out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarBradley Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 This is seeming like the AC: Black Flag of the Witcher series. It's the one where everyone who's heard about the series previously, but never played finally says, "alright this looks kinda cool, let's do it." I include myself in that group, as I didn't play through 1 and 2 until this January. Though, technically I did play through the first 3 or so minutes of the first Witcher way back in' 07/'08, my PC couldn't run it though, . 256MB RAM ftw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmarBradley Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 hopefully this confirms black blood potions are back, i dont remember them in 2. (1080p version)Looks like it, I don't think they were in II, but as I'm playing it right now I'll report back if I find a formula for one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarBradley Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Alright, chapter 1 finished - just did 3 hours straight, about 6 hours in total. Aiming to start an hour or two of Ch.2 tonight, finish it by Saturday night, Ch. 3 Sunday - possibly into Monday afternoon. Looking doable as of now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now I'm with Roche and Henselt - I don't want to miss anything, main or side related. So I'll pretty much do everything there is to do in Ch. 2, and probably Ch. 3 as well.I did skip the cupcake quest in Ch. 1, annoying that you have to play like 5 games of dice to finish the question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmarBradley Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Sort of annoying..... was just going through the Kaedweni camp, happened upon a Knight of the Flaming Rose - he attacked me out of revenge for Geralt killing Siegfried, which I would not have never done - really annoying that without a load from the first game, it appears to assume you went with the Scoia'tael.

OmarBradley Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 Finished Ch.2, lots of interesting story items I never found out in my other play through. About 20 minutes into Ch.3, may do some more tonight, only an hour or so. Plan to finish it tomorrow afternoon/night before GoT.I let Vernon kill Henselt, I don't care if Kaedwen destabilizes, I'm curious to see if that decision will have repercussions in W3. I hope so.Also, fuck her, I'm going to kill Sile this time at the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
