Xbox 1 users be careful.
There is a sleep mode bug that will corrupt your save on resume. I had it happen yesterday after 3 hours of playing and going up 2 levels. Game wouldnt save suddenly when I tried to manually save(I usually do it about once an hour). So i looked it up, lots of complaints. Some people shut down and try to come back with no save. Others do a complete reset and unplug the power cord and they at least recover old saves with recent progress lost(that was me). Make sure you do not have the console going into that pause/sleep mode. Make sure it goes off completely for power saving or whatever. It took me 4 hours tonight to rediscover most of the shit I went around discovering last night. At least tonight I found the Griffen amour and completed that treasure hunt. I dinged lvl 11 and the Griffen set is the best I have discovered, that I can use, so far. /edit And evidently Godlings like to shit in the swamp while watching the sun rise. |

(or you can just step out of the fog and shoot it to death with your crossbow, although this might take a while)

Click To View Spoiler I did find a bug, I think. If you get the formula of an enhanced potion before you get the formula for the lower version, you're fucked. The enhanced formula replaces the normal version, which means you have no way of making a normal potion to complete the enhanced formula. |

I then went to the very south eastern corner of that map and got killed by a high-level flying thing. My last save was in the foglet cave, and I kept dying until I finally beat it again. I then fell and died on my way to get the contract reward. It felt like an endless loop.

I still want to wreck those witches.
Even the voices they manage to do after they reveal themselves. Also, what of the godling. No, I dont feel these are spoilers. I think everyone who hits these spots will be in the same boat. You guys might make a manual save point though before getting too far into that arch. I wish I did so I could fully explore the story arch for that segment. |

I Found this amusing, Hopefully you will too!
As some of you know (you should know anyway lol) CD Projekt Red (CDPR) is very anti-DRM. They don't like it in the least. They took a crack at DRM in Witcher 3 in the form of a book. Read here: http://kotaku.com/the-witcher-3-takes-shots-at-drm-1707277761 It made me smirk a bit.

I'm interested in this game. Can anyone comment on load times on XBone? I really liked Skyrim and the Fallout games, but I got sick and tired of the load times. Load to go to town, run 30 yards, load to go in your house, load to leave your house, load to fast travel somewhere. Bleh, I don't want another game like that.
How are the load times on xbone? |

PS4 patch is out.
*Corrects a bug where the player was able to shoot bolts at friendly NPCs. *Corrects an issue related to Stamina regeneration while sprinting. *Corrects a bug that could cause spontaneous combustion of gas clouds. I did this once. Gas cloud hit my Quen sign and the whole area blew up. *Reduces spawn times for certain groups of NPCs. *Blood particles will now properly appear on water surfaces after foes are killed. *Corrects a visual effect in the Wandering in the Dark quest. *Improves foliage behavior in scenes. *Reduces foliage shadow popping. *"Melltith" sword is visible again. *Fixes some minor graphics bugs in gwent. *Corrects some missing translations in localized versions. *Improves performance, especially in cutscenes and during gameplay. *Introduces a number of minor improvements in SFX. *Fixes an issue that could have caused an infinite loading screen in certain circumstances in Wandering in the Dark quest. *Corrects an issue in the dialogue system that might have caused rare instances of dialogue looping in certain scenes. *Improves stability in gameplay and the UI, especially during games of gwent. *Upgrading items included in gear sets no longer destroys rune sockets on said items. *Fixes an occasional bug in the Journal in the Fake Papers quest. *Enlarges the loot pop-up window in the UI. |

They are very vulnerable to fire and stagger, and slow, so soften it up with some fire based bombs first before you go toe-to-toe. It will telegraph the root attack; when you see it coming, roll towards the leshen and start wailing on it with your strong attack. It will smoke up to distract you, but ignore it and keep wailing until it counters (you'll be able to get 5-6 hits in easy). This will drop your quen, so roll out and wait for it to root attack you again. Keep this up until it calls the wolves, and then run the fuck away. You can't beat them and they will rip you to pieces. If you manage to separate a couple of them from the pack, you can toss a yrden and try to take them on, but it's best to just wait until they go away. Once they do, just go back and finish off the leshen. It's way scarier looking that it actually is dangerous (except for the insane high level wolf pack thing). |

I'm not much for single player story modes but I did love Skyrim. My significant other has been all kinds of wet over this game.
Should I give it a go? I know it's open world but it still looked pretty linear to me. Only watched about 30 minutes of gameplay though. |

Hit level 17 and decided to get all the Cat gear via the treasure quest (lvl 17 or 18 quest I think)...
Turns out all the Cat armor and weapons were worse than the crap that I was already wearing. The Cat gear is all level 14, minus the crossbow which is level 29, and the silver sword which is level 13... 
Now I think I'll go ahead and find the Enhanced Cat gear, which is level 19/20, or perhaps something else. |

I'd prefer the Cat set because you can get the perk that gives you a shit ton of light attack bonus damage for wearing light armor, but sleeveless armor looks super retarded. |

I've been too distracted by every single little thing to do in the game that I just now finally finished the Bloody Baron quest line at level 19 lol.
I gotta say, that was a pretty fucked up quest line. Did not read your spoilers so had no clue what to expect . Great storys playing out.
Gwent...is....addicting. I finally almost have Scoia'tael and Nilfgaard decks playable. 20/21 respectively out of the 22 required "Troop" cards. Sad thing is with even 20 cards in both of those decks they out power my Foltest deck completely. I mean, my power for Foltest is around 130~ or so. A 19 deck Nilfgaard is 110 on its own. Can't wait to finish it and beat the crap out of some of these Monster decks that are obliterating me. I hate the monster decks. Always those stupid cards that summon other cards of the same name. Go from having 1 card to having 20 cards in one fucking go.... Thought I had the guy once...got my cards up to 40~ strength or so one lane and used the power up to double the power. Total was around 105....then he used a card and summoned 6 other cards all 6+ in power. Had literal 20 cards against me then used his power up on them. FML 
Only way I see getting past some of these higher leveled Monster decks is going to be with a Scoia'tael or Nilfgaard deck. Scoia'tael seem to have a lot of those cards that destroy the highest level cards on the playfield. That may be what saves the win from a Monster deck. Who knows, what say you? |

Love this game and just started it 2 days ago. It's been really hard for me to get into anything RPG wise over the years because the formula has gone to pretty much main quest and random single dimension side quests. Not here - for example, when I found an abandoned (destroyed) village that I searched through and found a note written a day before a large meeting with a Lord about negotiating their land and how the settlement will grow I knew what happened and wanted to find out more. Coming back to find the ghost of the women really made it 100 times more interesting and gave me closure rather than...go collect 10 wolf pelts.
Only level 3 almost to 4 but I've spent probably 20+ hours on it as I seem to explore EVERYTHING and do every single small thing that comes up. Oh, you need your pan? Let's go and fucking get your pan. Yeah, pan! Still in white orchard but loving it. My only complaint besides locking 1/3 of the key-mapping (which I found a way around) is I wish they wouldn't have put all of the resources on the overhead so that you'd have to search and find them and didn't have all the ? on the map to go and explore as I'd rather just stumble across them instead of knowing something is over there. |

I don't think it's perfect or anything, but I actually prefer it to Skyrim's "left click until one of you runs out of health" form of button-mashing, brain-dead combat. No tactics or skill required in that at all. At least here, you have to exhibit some knowledge of how, where, and when to strike, and when to get out of the way. It's not going to give the best combat systems a run for their money, but I don't think it's the worst, either. The actual movement of Geralt and his horse is messed up though. It seems like they wanted to try to add some weight to the movements for realism's sake (and it does look good when you are watching it), but actually playing it is rough. It can be difficult to direct and steer, and in combat it seems like attacks take too long to develop and follow through - especially heavy attacks, which I barely use because they take so long. Fortunately, rolling and dodging appears to be very responsive. |

On a different note, why the hell isn't there a storage chest in the world? They tell me to save all of my witcher gear for later use and upgrading, but then don't give me any place to keep it. It's BS that I have to carry all that weight around on the off chance I might be able to use it 15 hours and 10 levels later. Same with all those damn books and notes cluttering up my inventory.
The Witcher 2 got this right; why didn't they do it here? It can't be THAT hard.

It's BS that I have to carry all that weight around on the off chance I might be able to use it 15 hours and 10 levels later. Same with all those damn books and notes cluttering up my inventory. The Witcher 2 got this right; why didn't they do it here? It can't be THAT hard. Can't you just dump all the shit in a safe house and save the game? Run around, do shit, kill shit, Quick Travel back to that town to sell. If you run into a story where you need it, go get it? |

Run around, do shit, kill shit, Quick Travel back to that town to sell. If you run into a story where you need it, go get it? No player houses, as the above poster mentioned. You could just pick a dump spot, whether it's a house or a signpost, and just leave things there. People have been doing this in lieu of a better option and have reported that the loot bags of stuff you drop stays indefinitely. But other players have reported that if you go long enough, the stuff you drop does start to disappear. Could be a matter of getting too far along in the story and having the world map begin to change which erases dropped loot, or it could be a patch updating and resetting the game world. So you can take a chance and drop your good shit that's just taking up space and weight and go back for it when you need it, but it's a bit of a gamble. And if your stuff does disappear, you will at best have to spend a ton of money and time remaking/refinding the items, or at worst just be SOL if it was a unique item. And you might not find out until a dozen hours later when you finally go back there to collect things. What makes it most annoying (other than how easily the problem could have been avoided) is that you will often pick up equipment that several levels higher than you are, so you can't use it right now. But saving it until you level up means you might be lugging this piece of armor or sword around for many hours. So you are going to get rid of it. But there's a chance that the level 30 sword you are selling is actually the best level 30 sword in the game, and then when you finally get to level 30, you will have to settle for something worse. It's a minor thing overall, but with the way they have the inventory system and random loot generating system set up, it's a really annoying failure. Dragon age Inquisition did the same thing (until they patched a chest in). |

Without a doubt the worst combat of any action RPG I've ever played. I'm guessing you're on PC? With a controller on PS4, I find it kind of fluid. I can't imagine using a mouse and keyboard for this though. |
