I completely disagree with the top comment. Dont worry about the main game.

I advocate that you go in with the mindset that you are a part of an old and important guild, and that the main story is just an extension of your every day job of being a Witcher. The “side quests” are unbelievably good. So good that half of them have better stories than entire video games and series. I didn’t bother with the main story (only in parts, organically). I just wandered the country side and “did the job of a Witcher”. There is sooooooooo much to this game. Also, get the DLC’s.

One word of warning however. The power scaling is somewhat broken. If you over-level before moving forward, the game can get pretty boring only because the enemies become trivially easy to beat.

edit: Also, try and bang anything with eyes.

Pace yourself.

This is a huge game, i thought i was right before the end game twice but it just keeps on going. I have yet to start on the DLC’s and i was actually hoping to have moved the other sp rpgs on my todo list by now.

Its great though, if only cyberpunk was this big but they purposely kept it short because 70% of witcher 3 players didn’t get to the halfway point

Context: I like immersion and getting the most out of a game’s systems.

I see someone said the opposite, but I’d recommend playing the one difficulty above normal. If you don’t you’ll barely ever need to interact with some parts of the game like the alchemy system.

Also the game lets you heavily customize the interface. I personally hate being led around by a dotted line/arrow, so if you feel the same know you can turn all of that off.

Z3k3,

To add to this.

Don’t let yourself get overleveled for main quest line.

I played on normal and am the kind of person that plays main quest lines when there’s nothing else left to do in current part of the map

The result was the main quest line was very unsatisfying in terms of challenge due to being several levels too high

Roll around on the ground a lot during combat. Works wonders.

Just one: enjoy.

Clear the entirety of the first map. You’ll save yourself some headaches and power up Geralt a bit which helps a ton in the early game.

  1. There is a setting for an alternative character control mode. Use it, the regular one is dogshit.
  2. The level difference between Geralt and enemies is very important. A difference of +/- 4 can make fights ridiculously trivial or a one-hit KO. Same goes for jobs’ recommended difficulty.
  3. Getting swarmed by level 50 sewer rats is not fun.

Oh this is a simple mechanic, should take a couple hours to implement!

1 week of battling the code architecture and debugging data flow later

Do I actually enjoy game dev? I guess so…

“Oh hey, I added a button that makes the sword turn red!” “Why is the player teleporting to [0,0] when the sword turns red?” “Okay, I fixed the teleporting bug, but now the sword is blue”

Damn. This makes me sad LBP was one of my favorite franchises growing up. I’m hoping that we’ll get a PC trilogy release of some sort, but that’s just hoping probably.

Oh to start OSRS blind again like I was a kid (just RS at the time)

Good luck with the new account!

TunaLobster,

I logged into mine a month or 2 ago and realized I was still in tutorial island. I had totally forgotten where I left my character! It was a fantastic experience to go through the F2P quests and leveling again.

I definitely get why RuneScape was so big back in the day and so many people wish to experience it blind again. It has this really cool feeling to it that I feel like could never be replicated again. It’s rare to come across something like that

Anyone interested in a successor should check out Restitched.

VerilyFemme,

I hope this is good, because those photos on the store page are sending me straight back to LBP on the PSP. I’m extremely excited.

I heard one of the devs talk about it and it seems like a real labor of love from true lbp fans. If they can get it to release it’s gonna be so good.

stringere,

To the top with this!

Looks great!
