Previous thread:

Geralt and Triss OTP.

AWFUL
ALL OF YOU
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
GWENT COME SOON PLEASE

im so hyped for gwent i won;t be able to sleep tonight.

>tfw might not even get in the beta

What time do they let people know if they're in?

they said around 1 pm est

I'm not sure if they are going to do keys or just authorize accounts like they did with the kill the servers event.

...

>gearlt: havin' a hankering for some gwent, wanna play

I wish we could play Gwent with Triss.

what if triss secretly thinks gwent is stupid and geralt is stupid for playing so much gwent? ;_;

I'm sure Triss enjoys a good game of Gwent, but it's fine even if she doesn't. Geralt won't mind, he has much more interesting games to play with her anyway :3

Okay.
I started my first playtrough on difficult. Not march of death, the oke just below.
And are Gargoyles supposed to be that strong ?
Just encouktered my first one and damn I just can't beat it.

Also. Can NPC that follows you die ? I mean important ones like the blonde witch you can fuck ?

Is there any way to get the camera a little closer to Geralt?

...

What option did you choose in the precious cargo mission?

let him go and let him keep the medicine

for temeria and my buddy roche

Nilfgaard is superior

fuck off nilfgaardian scum. PLOUGH THE LILLIES

Gave it to him, no questions. It's the best option without looking for a dick.

She would never!

>Geralt
>100 years old
>Has killed some thousand monsters and humans
>Have been mutilated all over his body has died
>Propably seen alot of friends die
>Ugly
>Others say to him why he is not fun or that he has no feelings and that he is a monster
Nah go fuck yourself cunt

so i'm playing through witcher 2 before starting up 3

at the point where i have to decide between the elf dude and roche, is one path better than the other or is it just personal preference? i'd like to start 3 as soon as I finish 2 so I probably won't play through them both

So i've just completed Witcher 2 again.

How the FUCK do people think Witcher 1 is even remotely as good as it, let alone better?

Iorveth isn't in Witcher 3 and Roche is.

Roche is also a complete bro and Elves are sub human niggers

Usually NPCs who follow you can't die but there are like 4 or 5 sidequests where you have to protect someone and then you see their healfbars.
Gargoyles are quite annoying but spam OP dodging if you have trouble.

This times 10.
Based Roche,

Shit, really? I was tempted to go with the elves since they seemed more interested in pursuing Triss and the kingslayer straight away while Roche kind of wants to dick around in the town for a while longer

Well, i'm offering you hindsight. Do whatever you prefer, it's an RPG overall but just know that Iorveth isn't in Witcher 3 and Roche IS a total bro

>Iorveth's path
>not infinitely superior to Roche's
Dh'oine please

>Iorveth
>Relevant in Witcher 3

Pick one

Even if you spend the entirety of TW2 befriending Roche, he'll still refuse to help you unless you do his quest in TW3. He also acts like a different person, what with the willingness to trust the Nilfs and all. He and Geralt might as well be strangers in Witcher 3

>Iorveth
>Relevant in Witcher 3

Pick 1

I wish they had never included Ciri in the games. She ruined the books.

Followed the bastard all the way to his camp, had to fight his friends, killed them, took the medicine and sent him on his way because Geralt is like that.

It's even more sad because it is very possible he is still alive 100 years after the books, so he most likely saw the death of Ciri and Dandelion and the rest of his friends as well, the White Wolf has had a hard life, pun intended and not intended.

>Henselt, Dethmold, Sile, Sabrina, Ves
>relevant in Witcher 3

Roche's path makes the most sense for Geralt to go on and it is the path that matters for Witcher 3, but Iorveth's path was the better path in terms of quality of quests.

Just play both, user.

Her parts in the books eventually got good though, thank the gods Sapkowski stopped drinking while writing her parts after a while.

Nah, the unicorn bit made me ten kinds of mad, and then you had the "TOTALLY NOT GETTING OFF TO THIS" sexual relationship she had with that older thief lady that raped her.

Frankly the whole presence of an all-powerful super special elf-descended girl really took me out. Probably my fault for getting into Witcher through the games, but I liked the monster slaying Witcher shit most.

>implying I give a shit about those cucks

Oh god the Korath desert part was definitely the worst in the saga by far, also how people always die when they get sexually in touch with Ciri like Hotsporn.

Yeah, the whole legacy bullshit about Ciri was stupid, but the personal scenes between Ciri, Geralt and Yennefer make up for that bullshit.

It just took me out of it. I wasn't reading gritty polish monster hunting adventures, I was reading near-anime levels of yuri bullshit.

>she saves her from rape by a dude
>yay!
>rapes her instead!
>yay! so hawt!

W2 is very linear and it fucked up the alchemy and monster hunting in favor of muh politics. Its main strengths are the story and choice and consequence, but the whole cinematic approach was obnoxious as fuck and took a while to get used to. Also W1 has a superior soundtrack and better atmosphere.

I've played W2 6 times and chose Roche's path only once, just to see the story. Iorveth's path is simply better in every aspect.

Triss is really cute :3

>yay! so hawt!
What?

>W2 is very linear and it fucked up the alchemy and monster hunting in favor of muh politics

Except there still is monster hunting.

Witcher 1s first two acts is just pure awful in terms of quests. The fetch questing just ruined it completely. Throw in the combat system that is completely devoid of any thought or strategic planning (even on the hardest difficulty) and the gameplay is just shit.

Writing is "meh" for the most part, voice acting is laughably bad but it's an old game.

Witcher 2 just surpasses it in most areas that count. Calling Witcher 2 linear when it has possibly the biggest choice out of any RPG I can genuinely think off, a choice so large that you need to complete the game twice to get the full story and I just fail to see your argument.

Witcher 2 has better writing
Witcher 2 has a better story
Witcher 2 has better gameplay
Witcher 2 has better graphics (even graphics relative to its era. Witcher 2 was a legit benchmark)
Witcher 2 has better choice/consequence

Witcher 2 is just better in virtually every way

Right lads.

Who should I choose, Iorveth or Roche? The problem is that I prefer Roche as a character but i've only completed Witcher 2 with Roches path.

Seems simple enough, choose Iorveth right? But the problem is that I want to import my save into Witcher 3 and still be bros with Roche

The Rats were portrayed as shitty people, you thinking their relationship was portrayed as "hawt" speaks more about you than the books.

You asked why people liked W1, I replied to that. Some people just like the comfy monster hunter style and none of your list will change that. And W2 was linear as fuck, the maps were tiny and there was barely any exploration, just go from point A to point B. And as I said, the cinematic QTE ridden approach was annoying. I prefer W2 myself but it's silly to deny its flaws which it had quite a few or to make W1 out to be a shitty game without any worth.

Iorveth's path is better and save import doesn't mean shit, you are still bros with Roche in W3 no matter what.

Why is it I almost always see "comfy" used to describe mediocre games?

>hurr, Stalker is comfy
>hurr, Witcher 1 is comfy

It's almost like those games are fundamentally flawed in virtually every aspect so the fanboys come up with meme positives to justify their games mediocrity.

> I prefer W2 myself but it's silly to deny its flaws which it had quite a few or to make W1 out to be a shitty game without any worth.

Who denied Witcher 2s flaws? I'm just saying it has significantly less flaws than Witcher 1.

I'm not sure what the fuck you're trying to achieve tbqh. I'm not a fanboy and I'm not justifying anything, just tried to give you another perspective since you asked.

>I'm not sure what the fuck you're trying to achieve tbqh

Trying to engage in a discussion on Witcher 1 vs Witcher 2

I thought it was pretty obvious

It seemed like you were trying hard to make me change my mind on something I hadn't said in the first place. I think W1 has an oldschool charm to it, it's hard to explain so I used the word comfy. If you can't see it and think it's a mediocre game without merit then I can't make you think otherwise.

Iorveth's path answers more questions and actually has more stuff relevant to TW3 (like explaining Philippa's... situation and what's up with Radovid)

All of this Witcher 2 discussion brings up a good question.

Who would canon Geralt choose? Iorveth or Roche?

At first I thought Roche would be the clear choice (Iorveth has virtually zero character building with Geralt leading up to the choice and he comes across as some mad lunatic terrorist) but the more I think about it, the more I think Geralt would choose Iorveth because of these reasons:

>Roche is too blind sighted by his loyalty to Temeria. This is evident when he fucks up the entire plan Geralt had set up to catch Letho
>Roche refused to leave Flotsam whereas Iorveth would be leaving immediately. Geralt would likely go with Iorveth to track down Triss/Letho before their trails grew cold (obviously no hindsight is involved).

Now i'm not saying Iorveth > Roche and I do think Elves are all sub human shitters but i'm just saying I think canon Geralt would choose Iorveth.

I still haven't played Witcher 1 or 2

Looking forward to it though

Yeah, Roche had already fucked up the best plan they had and now he was going to sit around while the only lead was heading away. People always bring up how Roche saved Geralt's life so Geralt should feel indebted to him, but canon Geralt was always a bit of a prick, he wouldn't necessarily return the favor if it meant letting his own goals slip by him (similar to how he told Regis to fuck off after he saved his and Dandelion's lives etc).

Well, if there's any Rochefags out there who spared Letho then they're technically still betraying Roche because Geralt promised him that he would kill/capture the Kingslayer

Iorveth > Roche

In virtually every aspect, even character. Roche is just boring and finding out that there's literally n ochange to his chararacter in Witcher 3 regardless over whether or not you choose him is also pretty hilarious

this

Though I'd say his character did change somewhat by witcher 3 but mainly as a result of cdpr pandering to brochefags and not as a result of believable character development.

I mean change in the sense of how he treats Geralt. You would think he would be at LEAST a little salty over Geralt siding with Iorveth

www DOT twitch DOT tv/cdprojektred/v/96913602

was this stream good?

>who even cares about scoia'tael anymore? xD

Oh right, good point. On Iorveth's path if you spy on him with the megascope he's even ready to murder Geralt on his superior's orders so it wasn't just a petty disagreement. Then again, he gets mad as fuck if you bring Letho to KM (because he killed Foltest) but later sucks Emhyr's dick (who orchestrated Foltest's death). Dude just can't stick to his principles.

...

he be THIC

Boys can't be thicc, only fat

...

GWENT CLOSED BETA

Reminder that despite what he says Roche is a cheap whoreson who will quickly sell out his political ideals whenever things go south

Yes, Trissfu is the cutest. I jsut want to cuddle her and enjoy her softness.

is it gonna be any good? i haven't been paying any attention to it

Uhhh
Avallac'h?

Geralt x Iorveth > Ciri x Avallac'h

Cute!!

Iorveth is a pure virgin

Not after Geralt's done with him he ain't

Geralt only has eyes for Yen_

...

CIRI EDITION HYPE!!!!

POST MORE OF BEST GIRL CIRI GUYS

or burn at the stake

Geralt x Ciri is more likely to happen than Geralt x Yen, my good lad

I like to imagine her sucking Avallac'h's dick

...

I want to have a foursome with Ciri, Geralt and Triss.

>papa Emhyr
>daddy Avallac'h
>father Geralt
>uncle Vesemir
She sure likes older men, huh?

She also likes young virgin men. It's safe to say she's a SLUT!

Yes! The slut of Cintra! :3

You guys are fucking disgusting, i hope you all die from Ebol-aids.

Accept reality, Ciri lets Avallac'h and her other daddies put it in her ass.

do you guys go on the witcher or gwent subreddit?

>reddit

Didn't know the gwent one existed and I do visit the regular sub from time to time but rarely post because it's a CDPR drone circlejerk

...

Ok sorry, I was just joking. Don't get mad, friendo.

Geralt is Ciri's favorite daddy!

The kill the servers beta was great.

>watching the gwent developer twitch stream VOD
>chat arguing over who is the best waifu

can't escape it

CDPR often encouraged it themselves, they became a waifu friendly developer. I can't wait to see what they do with Cyberpunk waifus. The bar is set high, CyberTriss better be good.

that's cool, i hope the closed beta goes well and more people will share their impressions

Disgusting.

What did they mean by this?

I want to talk to Triss about her childhood.
