Same problem here, but my bounty hunter was at least a crazy childkiller

Hmm I visited Druids in the Swamps on Chapter 2. I could've sworn I heard one of them whistling the Imperial march from Star Wars :D

shh, it's a secret. About the bounty hunter -- yeah, not the best idea ever, but honestly, we needed a quick solution. I know there are plans for reputation system for next titles, which should work out much better.

I'm in Chapter 4 at the moment and I am totally loving this game. I still can't believe its built on the Aurora engine. I know you guys did a lot of modification but still, having these wide open detailed environments in the same engine as NWN... wow, kudos to you guys.

The visuals are just beautiful, especially the sunrises and sunsets. Really makes exploration at all times of the day and night interesting.

Please tell me you are making a sequel to this.

"Next titles". Hint, hint. Its also been said that this game is the opener to the "Witcher" universe. I'd expect sequels.

You could at least make him killable. There is no other way then load your last saved game when he meets you.

I hope it will be an expansion(maybe with a different protagonist). I really dont care to wait another 4 years for a sequel

 

[Kingston]

I doubt they'd need to work on it for another 4 years. They won't need recode an engine, just update this one with the latest depth of bloom effects. I'd wager a few years.

yes those are the most beautiful sunsets without the sun Ive ever seen
so yarpen.. any decisions regarding improvements in patch posted here? (inventory size & sort, new item highlighting, auto-save off option, sword autohiding etc.)

edit: Vodyanoi and Dagon - someone in CDPR inspired by Lovecraft? Now Im waiting for Cindirella, Sauron, Conan, 101 Dalmatians...

edit: that circular shaped part of Wyzima.. it awfuly reminds me some other game the name I dont want to mention... is it just me?

I know for a fact that vodyanye are pretty big in Russian folklore. They existed in folklore way before Lovecraft was born.
So did Dagon for that matter.
Considering that Lovecraft directly or indirectly inspired all of 20th century fantasy, horror and science fiction, I don't see it as a big deal.

Geralt Sparta-kicking Toddler is just so full of Win that words fail to encapsulate such winnage.

You need to sub the following under the pic: KEEP YUR TREATS TO URSELF!!!

You had Oblivion main city in mind, havent you (yeap, it was so fucking great name that I dont even remember right now what it was, or maybe I am just fed up with writing my report after laboratory)? Nevertheless havent you noticed the guy which Geralt kicks? Dont you recognise him? Ill give you a hint: Tod...PR Bethesda monkey.

Lets kick Bethesda out of Footb...I mean Earth.

 

[RK47]

it's called Imperial City *imperial march* where people live talking about rumours everyday.

 

[RK47]

extreme version

 

[KazikluBey]

Ill give you a hint: Tod...PR Bethesda monkey.

Get your Bethesda pantheon straight, dammit. Todd Howard is the producer on Fallout 3 and was the lead designer on Oblivion. The PR monkey is Pete Hines.

 

[suleo]

I think a Geralt-Pete photoshop job is in order...

OK

 

[suleo]

That's awesome!

I think this and the geralt-kicking-todd picture should be included in the codex review of TW, whenever it happens .

Was it Geralt or that one dwarf who said "moral relativism kills people"? Either way I found that to be a strange statement in a game with a tagline of "no good, no evil, only decisions and consequences."

 

[Marsal]

RK is the man!
That Todd's face sure fits everywere

In The Last Wish Geralt said that he didn't believe in "lesser evil".
I guess he changed his mind since then.

Does anyone know where I can find the storage container/inn/tavern in Act 5? I want to grab some runes for my new sword, but have no idea if there is even an NPC that lets you get your stored stuff.
