Witcher 3

[Valmy]

This novel series came out before Game of Thrones was written right? Maybe this just shows the cruel and vicious ways of Eastern Europe.

[spoiler]The Prussians brought discipline and order in the place of the corrupt and anarchic Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as well [/spoiler]

The first book was published in 1990 so I think before GoT, yeah.

Radovid's a crazy cunt.

Radovid's a crazy cunt.

Yeah. From what I heard and seen so far, Nilfgard seems like a much more preferable regime.

[Scipio]

Got the good ending this time. The post- win world is lame, though. Just have a shitloard of question marks to visit and races to win, plus fight the champ of champs. I'm only lvl 35, so I'm not so sanguine about it.

[Martinus]

For people who have already done so, what option did you guys go with [spoiler]the witches in Velen?[/spoiler] I reloaded several times, because I couldn't decide, and eventually went with [spoiler]releasing the spirit[/spoiler]. I thought [spoiler]saving the children[/spoiler] was the more moral choice, as all the other deaths it caused were more justified by the dead people's earlier actions.

I understand they will continue releasing DLCs with new quests so it may be a good reason to go back to the game once they do.

[Scipio]

I completed all of the contracts. I am a pro witcher.

[Martinus]

Releasing the spirit is also in accordance with the contract's letter.

I preferred the other solution, but YMMV.

[Martinus]

A lot of tough choices in this game, yeah.

The ceremony of "Dziady" (not sure how they translated that into English) was a nice touch. There is a well known Polish romantic poem/play called the same, written by a guy considered to be the greatest Polish poet (though YMMV) and everybody learns it in school - many quotes said by the shaman and the people were taken straight out of it. I guess this is a kind of Easter egg only Polish people will appreciate.

I just love it when I am cleaning a bandit camp and cast a sign and one of the bandits goes "Spell! Motherfucker is casting a fucking spell!"

Killed it. Generally my Geralt was all "Spare me the sob story". Except that thieving doppelganger in Novigrad.

[Martinus]

My m.o. seems to be that I usually spare the monsters and kill the humans.

That might actually work as your sig too.
