No Witcher 3 DLC This Week, But A Massive Patch is Coming

[Metalrocks]

good thing i held back on getting it on day 1. next year or so it should not only be cheaper and hopefully bug free. well, as bug free as possible. but it should be have the whole DLCs included.

certainly a huge plus to the devs for fixing up the game. not many do that.

Witcher 3 is one of the best games ever made. Very disappointed to see that the two main problems that i have with the game are not(apparently) not addressed. The camera is dreadful it just wanders of its own accord whenever you move. Searching an area requires studying the mini-map because the camera causes so much disorientation. It also needs an option to zoom out. I usually play with my finger permanently adjusting the camera control stick

The other problem i have is with the tiny text that is all over the game (why would anyone write a game without font-scaling options?)

Storage?? At long last! So many great swords I wanted to horde like a magpie-dragon, yet had no option but to sell them all.
Great to hear the somewhat clunky menu is being adjusted, though no doubt it will mess with my current muscle memory of quick-menu-select maneuver.
I am curious as to what this new movement option is. A unicorn? Alas, the draw distance in this game may not favour a flight mode.

CDprojektRed are certainly showing other game devs how it's done. Goodwill does pay off in good communities, I hope other companies can take inspiration from their success, for the benefit of all. It was only last week that I spotted all the free dlc by the Witcher 3 tab selection. It was a nice surprise seeing as I never asked for or needed any of it, it was just there. A game like COD would charge you £5 for a slightly different coloured shoe-lace.

I'm near the end of my first playthrough, seems like my second go at it will be even better. And thank god for horse patches, if theres anything like a fence or a hill nearby he will get stuck there 70% of the time. Sorting things will help out too, other than that nothing much annoyed me except for getting the right angle to loot an object and a few crashes that kept repeating under certain conditions, mostly when attempting to teleport long distances.

I love CD Projekt Red. This is a perfect example of how a game company should treat their fans and customers.

Continued free content to keep one interested in the game, improvements based on customer feedback, and bug fixes. Why yes, you've created enough good will that I will buy your season pass!

And more Triss is great. I have enjoyed the detailed back and forth between Yen and Gerald, but as Triss is a romance option, I kinda feel like she got the short end of the stick.

I don't know what the camera is like on consoles but that sucks to hear. Also they added in font scaling a few patches back I thought?

The stuff they are adding in is great. Geralt's movements have always been jerky and I hated selling some of the swords. Like this sword was given to me by a dear friend and I just sold it cuz I had better swords. Also the Alchemy pinning thing is a godsend, hopefully it applies to armour and swords as well.

Well I haven't had any major problems with the game yet but these are definitely welcomed.

-It'll be interesting to see these new movement animations
-After the Witcher 2 I'm surprised they didn't add the storage from the get go, but its good that they decided to add it.
-The inventory changes will definitely make finding certain items, especially books, a lot easier
-Haven't run into any quest glitches so far, but its good that they are patching them.
-Didn't know a lot of people were having problems with the horse AI, the worst that happens to me is that he'll run through a combat zone and get in the way but it doesn't happen too often.

Crafting and alchemy components no longer add to the overall inventory weight.
Very nice. Wanted that for a while now. The fact that I'm constantly sitting on 100 encumbrance out of 160 at minimum at all times is kind of worrying.

Yeah, since you only need to use alchemy items once for a diagram you're sitting on top of a bunch of herbs that barely get used. So having them take up space is kinda annoying. Personally, I'd prefer it if they went back to the Witcher 2's alchemy system, but I'll take what I can get.

Bu. . But. This'll mean that i'll have to start over. /sl many hours put in, I just reached Skellige! *Tears of both happiness and frustration* Also does anyone else find it really easy to get over 10k of crowns ingame? Before reaching Novigrade?

Well you can sell the herbs. It's only the fear that I might need them in future that deters me from being an 'erb dealer.

I am playing on the PC with a controller. The text thing is kind of an accessibility issue - I am playing on a 42'' monitor and use 180% scaling on windows 8 (1080p) My eyes are not even that bad - i hardly bother wearing my glasses unless i am planning to read a book for several hours. The font size complaint is pretty common around the internet and the game would be near to unplayable for people with genuinely bad eyesight.
