  The DLC is just retired Geralt playing Gwent in Toussaint all day and all the new content is just more tournaments and decks 🙏

  ^Seriously though judging by the title I would expect some sort of flashback, probably some kind of prequel thing involving Ciri’s backstory to lead into Witcher 4.^

    I’m sure it’s a tie in DLC to TW4. Now I’m wondering if I should put off my first TW3 playthrough until this DLC is out lol.

    I also have never played it and this might convince me to go back and check it out. I picked it up on Steam years ago for like five bucks.

  Will this DLC remind me how to play the game?

  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.

    Witcher ain’t Cyberpunk, but I feel the same adage applies. “Wrong town, wrong people.” With the “town” being witchers in general.

  Hoping this supercharges interest into the modding scene. The 2024 redkit release was way past the games popularity peak

  Planned for 2027 …

    If everything goes to plan.^^

  I find the controls for Witcher 3 are key bad looking back (just stuff like Gerald’s movement kinematics and the response times)

  So hopefully if they do this they can just do a bit of a polish pass too.

    Did you ever try the “alternative movement” setting, which they added with one of the updates? Much faster response with that enabled.

    source

    • panda_abyss@lemmy.ca ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      No, I’ll have to check it out, thanks

      I probably have enough time to do a single play through before this releases, this game took me so long the first time!

  Wild. So all these complete editions won’t be complete for long. Ars Technica said it’s $7.99 on GOG right now, so that’s a heck of a cheap way to get into the game if one were so inclined.

  Not quite as good as paying $6 for the Mass Effect trilogy, remastered, with all the DLC, and the loot box shit from ME3 stripped out… but not bad either.

  • ampersandrew@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    There’s about as much game in Witcher 3 as in all three Mass Effects combined, so it’s still a very good deal.

    source

    • TheMinions@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Wow that’s insane.

      I used to play and replay Mass Effect 1-3 all the time with all the DLC and it would take me about 30 hours per game.

      How long to beat has a completionism run on TW3 at 175.

      Nice.

    and the loot box shit from ME3 stripped out

    I wish they hadn’t stripped out the entire multiplayer mode in the remaster. It was surprisingly enjoyable (minus the lootbox mechanic)

  I hope it will be playable on a new game. I’ve finished the game on a Switch then sold the cart and gave away the console. I’m using a pc for all my gaming now.
