While I'm always happy with new Witcher content I hope they don't invalidate the perfect ending Gerald had in Blood & Wine
Damn, I REALLY need to finish the third one... I haven't even finished the base campaign.
It's not that I don't like the game, I am fascinated by every part of it, and it's been installed and updated on my computer for many years...
It's just so in depth, I do not have the attention span and dedication I used to in optimizing builds for a game. I felt like I was on hard mode if I didn't use the potions and sword oils and things, but I kept forgetting what to use, and that's assuming I even had the right stuff on me to begin with...
That's probably why I keep going back to skyrim more often, it's combat is more simplified and casual. Which is funny because I always download mods to make the game more like the Witcher and improve combat....
I'll finish it one day, in my most recent playfhrough I had just gotten to some giant squid creature in a swamp, and kept dying so I just didn't keep playing anymore.
They actually updated the game with a lot of quality of life stuff. Things like automatic oils when you draw your sword, so you don’t need to constantly dig through menus to reapply it. IIRC that one actually started as a mod, which got so popular CDPR decided to add it as an option directly in the game menu.
I actually saw that automatic oil application had been added at some point, that's a huge bonus!
There's a few other things I remember having issues with, but they were all minor individually, so they've probably been improved on.
I definitely need to give it another try, and this announcement certainly makes me want to pick it up again soon.
It's okay to play on the easiest difficulty, no shame in that. The story is so worth it! Also, the blood and wine dlc I soo good. It honestly could've been a standalone game, so definitely play that one too!
