… When does it get better? Ice zone, or even later?
I may have to give it another go at some point.

absquatulate@lemmy.world 5 days agoThe game is notorious for having a slow, boring start and it’s a turn-off for many. Not sure why, but white orchard always feels like a slog. It usually clicks ( it might not for you, but it usually does ) 10-ish hours in, once you get deeper into velen.

Ice zone? If it’s the one I think and you still don’t enjoy it you may want to put it down. It’s not gonna get more enjoyable.

Idk, the first time i play i like everything up until Novigrad, somehow the game grind to a stop and i have to slog through it and get to Skellige. I’ll have to play another time for the DLC and see if my opinion change or not.

White Orchard was fine. I dreaded the boss fight because my brother-in-law had a hard time with it. (I later learned he was playing on the highest difficulty.) So I did everything else I could. I may have missed things — everyone knows the Witcher games are full of details people tend to miss. Only thing I didn’t do that I know I could was kill cows to summon the secret boss. Not messing with that.
I’m in the next area. It let me choose the area. I chose the one with the lowest level. I’ve done what I think is a main quest (with the butcher/baron?) and I’ve moved on from that. I think I’m following his next lead on Ciri. It’s led me to a city they said I needed a pass to enter via the bridge. I swam across, zero consequences. Later got a pass by doing a side quest.

Yeah, the game should be wide open for you now. This region is the meat and potatoes for the main quest
