on Ciri drinking a black blood potion, in one of the books Ciri is caught by the dryads and forced to drink a potion that transforms girls into dryads, but it doesn't transform her. This may or may not indicate she can drink potions freely which is something the writer for that scene may have thought of, but who knows could be an oversight although it seems just unlikely when they state in the same game that Ciri hasn't undergone the mutations and they are required to handle the potions.
But that would at most mean that her body neutralizes the effect of potions. in which case black blood would not have worked, even if she could take it safely.
@@sheogorath1374 true, after ciri drank the dryad's water, geralt drank it as well and he had some sort of hallucinogenic experience. so if the black blood, and dryad water works on witchers, and the dryad's water doesn't work on elder blooded individuals, then perhaps; the black blood didn't work on ciri. i agree with letalis on this one, it might be an oversight of a dev thinking "we'll have her fight a vampire and drink black blood since geralt drinks black blood".
@Sheogorath What? That doesn't mean her body completely neutralizes potions and renders them inert. It just means she's not effected by them, at the very least negatively. Plenty of ppl irl can have little to no negative effects to things that can fuck other people up, allergies for instance, it doesn't mean those compounds are immediately purged into non existence when they enter the body.
The Waters of Brokilon, and it was literally just water from the wellspring. I forgot about that. A very strong magical powers. Geralt drank it too, from the description of the effects on Geralt, it was like LSD to him; he was stoned and blown away with hallucinations until morning. To Ciri, it was like drinking any other water. It's silly to treat every potion the same. They are all different, made of different ingredients, do different things. While in Kaer Morhen they occasionally gave Ciri White Gull too, to help her regenerate from training. When Triss found out, she was pissed off. She accused them of having no regard to possible consequences. Ciri hadn't even had her period yet, and Triss was afraid some potion they gave her might make her sterile, especially bc they often specially grew their own plant and mushrooms etc, giving them an over abundance of active ingredients thus producing highly potent potions. Triss had no idea that Ciri had already drunk the Waters of Brokilon when she was about 10. Black Blood Ingredients 1 × Dwarven spirit 2 × Sewant mushrooms 4 × Ghoul's blood (yick) Enhanced Black Blood Ingredients 1 × Alcohest 1 × Black Blood 1 × Hellebore petals 5 × Sewant mushrooms 5 × Ghoul's blood (yick) Superior Black Blood Ingredients 1 × White Gull 1 × Enhanced Black Blood 5 × Hellebore petals 5 × Sewant mushrooms 1 × Han fiber 1 × Nostrix 1 × Rebis but no Ghoul's blood, thank goodness. So not much worse than what is consumed daily during spring break.
@@DerOrso "Superior Black Blood Ingredients 1 × White Gull 1 × _Enhanced Black Blood_ 5 × Hellebore petals 5 × Sewant mushrooms 1 × Han fiber 1 × Nostrix 1 × Rebis but no Ghoul's blood, thank goodness." It has ghoul's blood since it contains the Enhanced Black Blood which contains ghoul's blood ;)
I like the change in the guards. Fighting off a dozen of them is still a penalty for me, because having to stop what I'm going and deal with combat for a few minutes when I wasn't looking for a fight can be annoying (even when the combat is fun), and it makes sense for Geralt to be able to cut them down with ease.
I agree. Like tonight I accidentally looted a broken oar in An Skellig and had to fight. Before I would have been irritated that 4 guards could kick a Witcher's butt. Tonight they were a little tough, being a few levels higher, but they made sense considering who Geralt is.
@@xLetalis Hey, do you remember if to get a dialogue about Saski it is enough to choose Ihorwet or do you also have to indicate that you saved Saski instead of Triss? I need answers because I'm about to have election simulations
Iorveth's exclusion from the third part is the greatest crime of the developers. They could have given him a cute side story like Roche, but they ended up losing one of their most charismatic characters 😤
How about the Caretaker's "Shovel" and Olgierd's "Iris"? Do those swords scale? Imo they should as they are completely unique in how they work, on par with Aerondight.
These 2 steel shords definitely should scale (or at least Iris, but imo both), they both have a unique effect but they do an opposite thing - one deals damage to the user with a stronger attack and the other heals the user. Someone gonna contact CDPR to fix that?
Weakening the guards to be no more than cannon fodder would be logical from a story perspective. After all geralt is a master who can take down Snow White and her seven swordsmen single-handedly. I didn't like that the guards in forced you to follow the law, and not acts like a murder hobo. However, I think the story itself provides enough of the incentive to act like Geralt would. We don't need super-powered police to enforce it.
The guards being weaker just makes sense as you could be overpowered against all other enemies and legendary beasts, but apparently not against a guy in regulation armor.
Bless you for going through all the trouble of finding these differences. As a hardcore Witcher 3 fan who played and beat this game 3 times including all dlc’s; having all these subtle differences is so easy to miss or even get that Mandela Effect of not recognizing the differences but thinking I MUST have seen them before. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the vids showing the differences and even including the side-by-sides of the version differences. Thank you.
3 times and you consider yourself hardcore? You didnt even discovered all the possible endings by youself, lol. Btw i lost the count after 23 runs (new game AND ng+).
I actually thought about Ciri and Witcher potions earlier today! You might already know, but let me share my thoughts^^ At least in the games, its established that Witcher potions "can" help ordinary people. We can see that in Tomiras Quest. Yes, the girl isnt the same after drinking swallow, BUT she survives! The potion took its time, but helped her body to heal... Geralt even says something like, you never know how a person (not just witchers) react to Witcher potions. So, now to Ciris story. She used "Black Blood". Yes, a Witcher potion, but no potion that really messes with your abilities. Its just making your blood poisonous to vampires. I imagine that it puts "something" in your blood thats bad for them... Sure, not really healthy, but it might be ok... Also Ciris blood might make her more ... resisting to the bad effects... Thats why I think that especially this Witcher potion could work for her, because its not messing with her body too much... But well, like you, I would not bet my life on that, maybe its just something the devs did not think about too much, who knows^^°
Was just going to bring this up and add its hinted that metabolism is different. Think we can agree that Ciri probably has a better metabolic rate than the average human
But she was in a coma so how did the potion help?? Also we didnt notice the mental effects she wasn't conscious. And they had to take her to a DR. so how is this good?? Ciri is a child of the elder blood so that's how she can handle a witcher potion maybe.
Yeah, no chief. Witcher potions are for witchers, period. The whole point of witcher training and Trial of Grasses is to allow prospects to withstand the mutation that will allow potion consumption (highly toxic decoction made from chemicals and monster parts) without fatalities. Even after, a Witcher can't just chug a 12 pack of assorted potions or they will die. W3 made a lot of blunders lore wise, perhaps W2 said it best: normal organisms gradually evolve but what makes witchers unique is being an organism that survived intense, forceful and sudden evolution. For example Swallow is for bleeding and hemorrhage but it does so by causing "cancer" to a witcher, cancer aggressive enough to regenerate tissue. Elder Blood is a gene selected and bred for the purity of magical talent. Mages normally are "made" but a magical base has to be present. Elder Blood are the most pure magic gene born individual, therefore their magic surpass all other mages, which technically are imitation's of EB. For Ciri to use Witcher potions she would need to loose her genetical purity, ergo not be Elder Blood.
I noticed a bug in a gwent game: playing against Zoltan, he was able to play the Isengrim card twice. Which is especially funny considering that you have to go search for this card to complete this quest (I played against him before doing the quest, so it had nothing to do with that). I mean: why ask Geralt to do that when he already has the card not only once, but even twice 😂
0:50 I also saw them in Skellige this time and I was laughing so hard 😂 Couldn't remember whether it was something new, or something that I had always missed on my previous playthroughs
@@xLetalis Yeah it was, I encountered them before the next gen update. Don't what triggered it though, but eveything you showed is exactly the same as I saw them before the update.
@@zarenboug5410 I'm loading the exact same save when I show the comparison and it's not there for me in old gen, also I realized that there was a PC mod which made it available, so it certainly wasn't working
@@xLetalis I did a research and it seems the texture of the boots use to have a visual bug or something. Take a look yourself ;) Edit : the red bug doesnt appear in your old videos with Gaetan
The change to the guards might be due to the way the combat mod they used applied to elite enemies and they actually removed the buffs for them being overleveled.
9:32 I didn’t watch the Netflix series, but that sounds incredibly stupid and I can’t imagine in any context how that would make sense given the lore of the books and games
I think Ciri’s elder blood makes her resistant to Witcher potions, or at least partially. Her blood is from Elven descendants, which might make her resistant to certain types of magic. Plus she only drank a dose. Perhaps her capacity is limited.
Sounds like bullshit to me. It's made using ghoul blood which has nothing to do with elven magic. It would literally be poison to her. Her powers are about space time magic and not about resisting poison. Witchers can do it because they've got a bunch of mutations from a variety of species which almost certainly includes ghouls and necrophages too
@@Artaxerxes. So you think I’m a bullshitter? Thanks I appreciate that. Plus I didn’t say that Black Blood has any ties to Elven magic. I just illustrated my point that Ciri has Elven blood and that might affect her magical abilities, and in fact we know it does. What are the odds that Ciri is possibly immune or resistant to certain magical powers?
@@justsomeguy747 she has no magical abilities. she forsake them. and if a mage took those potions he would die too. and she does not have any immunity to magical powers. she can get sick and die. she had an infection in the books. this is literally BS lorebreaking piece of dialogue.
Im the books, she is resistant to some potions. It's not elaborated why or to what extent, but it is something. And it's not like normal people can't drink witcher potions. Again, there are examples of that being done. It's just that in those cases, one needs to be extremely careful and the effect might not always be desirable. And her elven blood could certainly play a role with a potion that interacts with blood.
@@Nerazmus Exactly what I said, partially. I didn’t talk about the books but yeah. Ciri is no ordinary human. She has incredible power within her that is also affected by her Elven ancestry. Elves predate the world’s existence if I’m not mistaken. In mythology it is sometimes believed that older entities are stronger than younger ones, and sometimes vice versa. Although Carnthir is older than Ciri, she was still a powerful opponent for him, but he defeated her still.
On the beehives not killing people, that must've been done in a hotfix, rather than the next-gen update. In my pre-ng+ throwaway run, I used the beehive to kill & loot Tomira. Day 1 of the next-gen update.
Henselt's death was not fixed on Iorveth's path. The game still behaves as if Roche killed him only the import on pc changes the dialogues with he died in the battle with radovid
6:31 Are you able to hang this laurel as a paint now? I tried to do it in a vanilla game but you could not do anything with it really, which was a shame as I valued it very much.
i tought Ciri made the vampire itself drink the black blood, making its own blood turn poisnous to it and killed it, the subtitles litrally says Let it Drink, not Drank it.
I ran into a bug with tomira. In a ng+ I never visited her to get the herbs for the nilfgaard quest. because I already had them. I visited her much later when I was in velen. And during the dialogue cutscene, you can see the girl sleeping in the background. but when you ask about the girl (this choice shouldn't even be present), the girl in the background is gone and tomira says that the girl died after you left and geralt explains his circumstances.
8:57 I always think this means she somehow throw him potion to his mouth rather than she drink it, like it is quiet obvious option i think, as game stating theese potions are poison+ highly doubt ciri will not be dead after bite that can go through armor
I also found a new bug regarding the new forgotten wolven swords. If you do the witcher contract at the border to novigrad, where you get a pass for crossing the border, you can encounter a scoiatel gang and the take your weapons, if you have these 2 swords in your inventory from the a save game before new game +, oncve you get them back they get leveld up(regarding your current level) so you cant use them anymore. check it out if it is of any interest.
I hope one day we'll get an exclusive list of all the changes they've applied to the new version. Everything that was added, altered and removed, neatly typed into one big table!
What ruined the fun for me a bit is that after the next-gen update the toilet from Crow’s Perch is no longer interactive. At some points during the day there was a soldier goes in, closing the door and you could actually knock on it. No more fun after the update because there is no door now. 😅
6:58 ahh... I see how Lambert thinks of himself as being better witcher than Geralt. He DOES NOT lose his pants after encounter with a woman ... He knows this is a battle, one must be always ready to counterattack. That's why he sleeps in full gear.
Man they could honestly add a couple new quest, easter eggs, armor, and weapons once a week for months and I would be fine with that or even a new expansion.
Did you notice that the Scoiatel member that you can rescue from Person's in Distress in Novigrad, after you follow him to his camp as he promises you a reward, they mention about Yorveth for a second there!
@@xLetalis I am replaying it and one of the Scoiatel member says "Have you heard the rumors about Yorveth?". It was a beautiful moment as just like you, I feel having Yorveth in Witcher 3 would make the perfect game even legendary. So it was a good Easter Egg.
6:50 my friend, that also happens with ciri sword in the old gen version, but only with the regular stands, the one you're putting the forgotten wolf swords doesn't have that problem (I use that one to display ciri sword since the old gen version).
I have always said the guards were needlessly over-levelled, it ruined my immersion slightly. I get that it was intended to discourage killing guards as that's not something Geralt would do, but there was no reason to kill them anyway even if I played an overpowered build since guards drop no XP, gold or gear upon death. Now the game is more realistic and more convenient for an OCD looter like me.
I agree with this, as someone who played it for the first time on the next gen update, I attacked the nilfgaardian camp and quickly realized it was completely useless since they not only drop nothing but costed me money since it costed me sword's durability. Never bothered attacking a guard again, but knowing I can kill a bunch of guards very easily makes complete sense for Geralt's character.
For Gwent to receive the Roach Card you only need to download the stand alone game you don't even need to play it. Only if they changed it now as I only downloaded the GWENT game and did not even open it.
I don’t know if anyone else pointed this out yet but I noticed that bug with sword scabbards also happened with the superior wolven swords in the sword rack at corvo bianco.
It would have been nice to receive, instead of the Witch Hunter's Armor, maybe the Oathbreaker's Armor; Vesemir's Armor; or even or the amor from the beginning of the game with a nice enough level...
I saw a picture with Geralt headed to Fyke Isle with 2 shadows on the boat, the second shadow was female, meaning Annabelle is watching Geralt since he arrives or since he's close to the island. The guy said it's easier to see it during sunsets. I've never seen that, no idea if it's new. I've seen the "ghost" behind Geralt once he's inside the tower but a shadow in his boat when he's getting close is new to me.
@@xLetalis Exactly! In the picture I saw there were 2 shadows, one for Geralt and at the other side of the boat there was another shadow, clearly a woman but just the shadow.
Oh and the Fast Travel post at Crow's perch....you need to go there for it to become available....otherwise it wont show. Someone was complaining about it on Twitter...you have to go inside the inner keep...and not just near the armourer's table.
@@xLetalis Yes that's right....I always do, so maybe I forget some people never finish it all....which is weird....it's a great quest one of the most moving too.
Two things, One being that it's good that the guards can't be looted or else Geralt would be going on a massacre. Two being that they could easily recolor the armor in that quest and take of that little emblem on the chest off and it would look alot better. If they didn't want to make a unique armor that is.
Can confirm that on console, the Iorveth mention to the dwarf during Swords and Dumplings quest doesn't work. I always choose Iorveth path when playing Witcher 3, and I've done Swords and Dumplings twice since the update. Must still be a pc exclusive dialogue like some other references . . .
@@xLetalis I'm on xbox And I just tested it again (cuz I have a save before the quest) and the dwarf recognizes me from Vergen and Yarpin, but there isn't the option like in the video
I noticed when your in the cave being guided by Philipa for the sunstone. She goes into telling you that if you pretty much choose to have ciri become princess you find out she want’s to take the place of yen at ciri side when ciri is princess. She try’s to get you to romance yen. I of coarse was rushing through the game so I never helped triss and I told yen it was over.
One more small thing hasn't been fixed in the Master Armorers quest. The crossbow bolt fired at Geralt by the Nilfgaardian general (while testing the armor) misses him instead of bouncing off the armor. This used to work in the very early versions of the original game, but was broken sometime in the later patches.
Eh, the reason Geralt could pay off the dwarf wasn't because of Witcher 2 per se. They first met in the books when Yarpen Zigrin, a couple of other dwarves and Geralt went hunting for the golden dragon. And then again they travelled together later in the books.
On the topic of oversights, the forktail that flies over your head when you first arrive at Kaer Morhen has been fixed. Geralt has two voicelines that state it was a forktail, yet in the old gen it was a wyvern model. Now it really is a forktail. Also, I don't know if it is only a problem on my end, but in the Lord of Undvik quest when you free Vigi from his cell, Geralt's lower body completely disappears. I had the netflix armor equipped at the time. Everything goes back to normal as soon as the cutscene ends.
The Werewolf Decoction only works while on Toussaint, sadly. I tested it on Novigrad region, near Brunwich (HoS DLC), Skellige and Velen, but only on Toussaint the buff gets active. Similarly the Foglet Decoction works in all areas of the game, except for Toussaint (which is rather curious). Both items are probably bugged (but the Foglet one doesn't work long before the next-gen patch). I hope CDPR fix this in a future update. PS: I'm playing on PS4.
That stamina thing sounds like a round of Would You Rather? You can run indefinitely, but you either have to be part werewolf or fondle a statue's balls.
9:06 - On Ciri drinking Witcher Potions: So in my 'head canon', or theory, to explain this away without breaking the game's continutity/established Lore & Canon was this; Technically, Ciri doesn't specifically say that she _drank_ the Black Blood potion. Rather she only says that "But a dose of Black Blood did the trick. We fought a while, i feigned a mistimed dodge and let it drink. The rest was easy." Now yes, i know, that's pretty damning. But let's allow ourselves to reach a little. We know that Ciri has magical powers, yes? We know that not only that, but Ciri is also the most powerful living magic user on the planet, potentially on all planets, yes? We know that her most frequently used form of this magical power is short-distance teleports, Warcraft-Blink or DC's The Flash-style, yes? So if you take those three little fun-facts, plus her overall intelligence on display throughout the games and books, what _i personally believe_ happens is one of two things: 1. When she says "feigned a mistimed dodge and let it drink", she's being a little bit sassy/on-the-nose. Rather what she's saying is she feigned the mistimed dodge to bait a lunge and then the moment the Vampire went for the lunge she blink-teleports towards it with the potion vial in hand, and jams it down the beast's throat/in it's mouth, then, just as fast blink-teleports away. The Vampire, unable to keep up with the sheer speed of "The Lady of Time & Space" bites down (expecting a mouthful of neck/throat, or a silly witcher girl's hand) breaking the glass. The Glass lacerates the shit out of it's mouth, meaning the potion doesn't even need to be swallowed to intermingle with the vamp-blood to cause it's effect, nevermind the fact that of course a little of the potion would be swallowed anyways, and it fucks the vampire up. 2. At some point before the fight, just as a precaution, Ciri brews the Black Blood and all that, but then slathers it all around her neck, shoulders, and upper chest. That way if at any point the Vampire _does_ happen to get a feeding-type of bite in, it will inadvertantly suck the potion off of her skin/clothes/collar as it's trying to suck her blood. In closing, the reason i like this idea/theory so much (and why i've chosen to believe it as part of the game's canon all these years) is because the normal way a Black Blood potion works is, The Witcher drinks the potions and the potion in turn slightly alters his blood in a way that causes great harm to Vampires & Necrophages. So imagine what it might then do if instead of going through that process, where it is consumed once, then diluted extremely as the "concentrate" sublimates with the rest of the blood in a Witcher's circulatory system, it was introduced directly to the Vampire's (in it's concentrated form) digestive system, as is the case in Example 2, or to both it's Digestive _&_ Circulatory system as in Example 1. In my mind at least, it would be orders of magnitude more potent, and may literally cause the blood of the vampire to immediately begin boiling, causing expansion and vapor-build up, potentially resulting in a BLEVE. Or it may just interact so maliciously/caustically with all the organic tissues in a vampire that they literally begin to dissolve as if you forced them to swallow a condom full of 'piranha solution' and then punched them in the stomach and burst the balloon. Who knows? (Edited to fix about 15 typos, if someone's actually gonna take the time to read all this psycho-babble, they ought not to have to deal with shitty spelling & grammar too.)
I don't remember if you covered this but theres a Nilfgaardian helmet at that camp that has a bug. it gives you a big red block head if you equip it on ps4.
The banter between the brothers in law is top class😂... that's exactly how a Irishman and a London Englishman would argue with eachother... it's like they've told the voice actors to make it up to ad lib it👌
The year is 2077. Witcher 3 Museum Edition has just come out for the PS50. xLetalis has found a new trader that lives in a small remote cave in Skellige selling Pyerog stones that has been there since forever that nobody noticed in almost a century.
I'm late and all, but the thing about the guards is that you never even kill them. The only finisher you get is the headbutt and their "corpses" don't leave a pool of blood under them. So it's fair to assume you only ever beat them unconscious. And I'm not sure, but if you "die" to them, you just wake up on the ground. (think this happened to me once)
This has nothing to do with the video. But I noticed there's a small detail that the developers added in the Next Gen edition. Whenever you're harvesting herbs for your potions' ingredients. Geralt's hand moves slightly as if reaching something, just slightly below elbow reach, and puts something in his pocket. I haven't noticed that in the Old Gen edition. Usually we just stopped abruptly as if Gerlat has a mild seizure whenever we're harvesting herbs while walking or running.
for anyone wanting to make money in the witcher 3 if you have blood and wine you have the quest a knight errant, or something along those lines in that quest you essentially liberate locations from bandits, the best location is a castle east of beauclair, you wil enter and you wil kill all the bandits save for the runner that tries to reach the signal fire, this is simple enough, you then move trough towards the upper courtyard and start killing all the bandits there, when you are halfway trough a new wave of reinforcements should arrive due to the signal fire, kill them off as well loot all the corpses in the courtyard but do not move into the keep, instead leave, go to the fast travel point, jump to any other point and then immediatly jump back, you can repeat this as much as you want I tend to use this to do business with the grandmaster craftsman, he charges ludicrous prices for gettin grandmaster armor and this just helps to recover the cost getting at least a couple hundred crowns per sword allows you to earn back the money spent at least
I always assumed Ciri could drink Witcher potions because of the mutagens/mushrooms the witchers at Kaer Morhen were feeding her. Iirc Triss's POV seems to imply that her strength and speed were augmented by these and that they'd make her infertile eventually, so she's mutated in some way, just not as much as a full witcher who's gone through the Trial of the Grasses.
hey letais, not sure if you mentioned it in "details you have missed", but ciri has also a dialogue option for your mark from gaunter o dimm in skellige. you can ask her bout this (maybe earlier somewhere) in skellige, when ciri, yen and philip stand in circle. its nothing big or special, but im not sure if you mentioned it.
I’m replaying the 1.31 version because it has better mod support and my PC is Pascal gen, can’t do ray tracing anyway. I’m having a blast. About 20 mods in, this looks better than. I remember. 6GB or VRAM at 1080p.
Tbh, the guards being a penalty makes sense but often times it was hard to even realise what you did to anger them. Thematically it also doesn't make sense that one guard outclasses Geralt. I think if they were just designed to be relentless and organised in attacking him, like all attacking at once, making it hard to dodge or block all of them.
3:12 Regarding the bees in White Orchard it worked for me. After the update I started completely clean game and tried it, well Tomira is dead and I got all the alchemy stuff
Respawns in settlements in general should have been delayed to at least once per week in game time, much like how inventory in vendors takes about that same amount of time to respawn. Without this, it is far too easy to keep farming domestic livestock like goats, geese, and cows for sellable loot, especially in White Orchard. Now that the guards are more balanced with the rest of the enemies in the game, it is far too easy to just farm them too for loot with every guard outpost, such as the Redanian Post at the bridge between Velen and Novigrad, as well as Reardon Manor for Nilfguaardian loot drops.
It is weird, I played the Witcher 3 on PS4 and I remember the conversation between van Hoorn and Sukrus in previous playthroughs. Same goes for the Vesemir dialogue about repairing the walls at Kaer Morhen in your video from three weeks ago (but I can't say for sure about the Anna Henrietta or Triss dialogue from that video). Anyway, great video as always!
fun fact, you can still kill tomira, but you have to use a superior dragons dream. takes about three of them. oddly she's the only killable shopkeep...... wish there were more, but the rest are like guards, you don't kill them but knock them out.
Just now I went to the armour smith in the main courtyard of novigrad who used to saw top notch swords before they patched it in the new update. Well I’m playing on v4.00 and he just said it again which took me by surprise
im playing through it again and they have not fixed some of the wondering countryside venders shops not opening in dialogue options. 45 hours into it ive just started looking for ciri in skellige ive done everything in vel n nov apart from couple of very high level contracts i know is alot to do when go back later 3rd time playing through it :)
To the world within the Witcher Universe its simply Witch hunter = killing witches and non humans such as elves, dwarves, which Geralt doesn't do for a living

The though that we might never get to see Iorveth again is a sad one :(
It is my man

He was one of my favorites and I was hoping for a little dlc or for Letho to say he had a narrow escape from Iorveth he got shot by him

Does Saska's dialogue appear when we choose iorveth or do we also have to choose disenchant saska instead of triss?
on Ciri drinking a black blood potion, in one of the books Ciri is caught by the dryads and forced to drink a potion that transforms girls into dryads, but it doesn't transform her. This may or may not indicate she can drink potions freely which is something the writer for that scene may have thought of, but who knows could be an oversight although it seems just unlikely when they state in the same game that Ciri hasn't undergone the mutations and they are required to handle the potions.
But that would at most mean that her body neutralizes the effect of potions. in which case black blood would not have worked, even if she could take it safely.
@@sheogorath1374 true, after ciri drank the dryad's water, geralt drank it as well and he had some sort of hallucinogenic experience. so if the black blood, and dryad water works on witchers, and the dryad's water doesn't work on elder blooded individuals, then perhaps; the black blood didn't work on ciri. i agree with letalis on this one, it might be an oversight of a dev thinking "we'll have her fight a vampire and drink black blood since geralt drinks black blood".
@Sheogorath
What? That doesn't mean her body completely neutralizes potions and renders them inert. It just means she's not effected by them, at the very least negatively.
Plenty of ppl irl can have little to no negative effects to things that can fuck other people up, allergies for instance, it doesn't mean those compounds are immediately purged into non existence when they enter the body.
The Waters of Brokilon, and it was literally just water from the wellspring. I forgot about that. A very strong magical powers. Geralt drank it too, from the description of the effects on Geralt, it was like LSD to him; he was stoned and blown away with hallucinations until morning. To Ciri, it was like drinking any other water.
It's silly to treat every potion the same. They are all different, made of different ingredients, do different things. While in Kaer Morhen they occasionally gave Ciri White Gull too, to help her regenerate from training. When Triss found out, she was pissed off. She accused them of having no regard to possible consequences. Ciri hadn't even had her period yet, and Triss was afraid some potion they gave her might make her sterile, especially bc they often specially grew their own plant and mushrooms etc, giving them an over abundance of active ingredients thus producing highly potent potions. Triss had no idea that Ciri had already drunk the Waters of Brokilon when she was about 10.

I like the change in the guards. Fighting off a dozen of them is still a penalty for me, because having to stop what I'm going and deal with combat for a few minutes when I wasn't looking for a fight can be annoying (even when the combat is fun), and it makes sense for Geralt to be able to cut them down with ease.
I agree. Like tonight I accidentally looted a broken oar in An Skellig and had to fight. Before I would have been irritated that 4 guards could kick a Witcher's butt. Tonight they were a little tough, being a few levels higher, but they made sense considering who Geralt is.
Pretty sure the Iorverth's path choice was in the game before, I did it once if I recall correctly, with the same dwarf from what I remember.
It was, I don't claim it's exclusive to Next-Gen, just something I decided to include because I was revisiting the quest
@@xLetalis Oh ok I guess I misunderstood.
@@xLetalis you play import save if simulate choice?
@@newti69 simulated most likely, I was loading an old save
@@xLetalis Hey, do you remember if to get a dialogue about Saski it is enough to choose Ihorwet or do you also have to indicate that you saved Saski instead of Triss? I need answers because I'm about to have election simulations
Iorveth's exclusion from the third part is the greatest crime of the developers. They could have given him a cute side story like Roche, but they ended up losing one of their most charismatic characters 😤
It could have been done in one of the DLCs even, if there was not enough time left to do it in the main game.
I also liked him more than Roche, he was unique. It would've been cool if he went to kaer morhen
They should have at least given us a DLC for Iorveth. Although with Roche possibly dead, we wouldn't be able to have their iconic bickering.
geralt to iorveth: you, me... this never happened. just forget everything about us.
iorveth: everything?
geralt: wind's howling
How about the Caretaker's "Shovel" and Olgierd's "Iris"? Do those swords scale? Imo they should as they are completely unique in how they work, on par with Aerondight.
no, i tested it. but I haven't done it yet in NewGame+
don't think so :(
Iris needs to scale, it's amazing and a really special reward like aerondight
@@raccoonofmotivation20 do like me, start newgameplus at lvl63 and Iris will be lvl100!
These 2 steel shords definitely should scale (or at least Iris, but imo both), they both have a unique effect but they do an opposite thing - one deals damage to the user with a stronger attack and the other heals the user. Someone gonna contact CDPR to fix that?
almost have a heart attack when i saw "iorveth" on title.
Weakening the guards to be no more than cannon fodder would be logical from a story perspective. After all geralt is a master who can take down Snow White and her seven swordsmen single-handedly.
I didn't like that the guards in forced you to follow the law, and not acts like a murder hobo. However, I think the story itself provides enough of the incentive to act like Geralt would. We don't need super-powered police to enforce it.
The guards being weaker just makes sense as you could be overpowered against all other enemies and legendary beasts, but apparently not against a guy in regulation armor.
Bless you for going through all the trouble of finding these differences. As a hardcore Witcher 3 fan who played and beat this game 3 times including all dlc’s; having all these subtle differences is so easy to miss or even get that Mandela Effect of not recognizing the differences but thinking I MUST have seen them before.
So I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the vids showing the differences and even including the side-by-sides of the version differences. Thank you.
3 times and you consider yourself hardcore?
You didnt even discovered all the possible endings by youself, lol.
Btw i lost the count after 23 runs (new game AND ng+).
I actually thought about Ciri and Witcher potions earlier today! You might already know, but let me share my thoughts^^
At least in the games, its established that Witcher potions "can" help ordinary people. We can see that in Tomiras Quest. Yes, the girl isnt the same after drinking swallow, BUT she survives! The potion took its time, but helped her body to heal...
Geralt even says something like, you never know how a person (not just witchers) react to Witcher potions.
So, now to Ciris story. She used "Black Blood". Yes, a Witcher potion, but no potion that really messes with your abilities. Its just making your blood poisonous to vampires. I imagine that it puts "something" in your blood thats bad for them... Sure, not really healthy, but it might be ok... Also Ciris blood might make her more ... resisting to the bad effects...
Thats why I think that especially this Witcher potion could work for her, because its not messing with her body too much...
But well, like you, I would not bet my life on that, maybe its just something the devs did not think about too much, who knows^^°
Was just going to bring this up and add its hinted that metabolism is different. Think we can agree that Ciri probably has a better metabolic rate than the average human
But she was in a coma so how did the potion help?? Also we didnt notice the mental effects she wasn't conscious. And they had to take her to a DR. so how is this good?? Ciri is a child of the elder blood so that's how she can handle a witcher potion maybe.
Swallow has basically killed Lina in Tomiras Quest. The best solution is to let Lina die.
Yeah, no chief. Witcher potions are for witchers, period. The whole point of witcher training and Trial of Grasses is to allow prospects to withstand the mutation that will allow potion consumption (highly toxic decoction made from chemicals and monster parts) without fatalities. Even after, a Witcher can't just chug a 12 pack of assorted potions or they will die.
W3 made a lot of blunders lore wise, perhaps W2 said it best: normal organisms gradually evolve but what makes witchers unique is being an organism that survived intense, forceful and sudden evolution. For example Swallow is for bleeding and hemorrhage but it does so by causing "cancer" to a witcher, cancer aggressive enough to regenerate tissue.
Elder Blood is a gene selected and bred for the purity of magical talent. Mages normally are "made" but a magical base has to be present. Elder Blood are the most pure magic gene born individual, therefore their magic surpass all other mages, which technically are imitation's of EB.
For Ciri to use Witcher potions she would need to loose her genetical purity, ergo not be Elder Blood.
It's got ghoul blood in it. No way her body can handle that. Stop making shit up
I noticed a bug in a gwent game: playing against Zoltan, he was able to play the Isengrim card twice. Which is especially funny considering that you have to go search for this card to complete this quest (I played against him before doing the quest, so it had nothing to do with that).
I mean: why ask Geralt to do that when he already has the card not only once, but even twice 😂
It happend time to time if you increase gwent dificult in game options - double cards with better stats on NPC hand. It's not only Zoltan
This could already happen in the old version as well.
@@GunGun-cf3ss really? I never had that problem in the old gen

@@xLetalis I did a research and it seems the texture of the boots use to have a visual bug or something. Take a look yourself ;)
Edit : the red bug doesnt appear in your old videos with Gaetan
@@gartzia96 could be on consoles only
They didn't change the boots, they incorporated a mod that fixed the missing color definition on the boots which is why they appeared clown red.
The change to the guards might be due to the way the combat mod they used applied to elite enemies and they actually removed the buffs for them being overleveled.
I just wish they’d add a transmog system, so I can wear the new armours!
9:32 I didn’t watch the Netflix series, but that sounds incredibly stupid and I can’t imagine in any context how that would make sense given the lore of the books and games
I think Ciri’s elder blood makes her resistant to Witcher potions, or at least partially. Her blood is from Elven descendants, which might make her resistant to certain types of magic. Plus she only drank a dose. Perhaps her capacity is limited.
Sounds like bullshit to me. It's made using ghoul blood which has nothing to do with elven magic. It would literally be poison to her. Her powers are about space time magic and not about resisting poison. Witchers can do it because they've got a bunch of mutations from a variety of species which almost certainly includes ghouls and necrophages too
@@Artaxerxes. So you think I’m a bullshitter? Thanks I appreciate that. Plus I didn’t say that Black Blood has any ties to Elven magic. I just illustrated my point that Ciri has Elven blood and that might affect her magical abilities, and in fact we know it does. What are the odds that Ciri is possibly immune or resistant to certain magical powers?
@@justsomeguy747 she has no magical abilities. she forsake them. and if a mage took those potions he would die too. and she does not have any immunity to magical powers. she can get sick and die. she had an infection in the books. this is literally BS lorebreaking piece of dialogue.
Im the books, she is resistant to some potions. It's not elaborated why or to what extent, but it is something.
And it's not like normal people can't drink witcher potions. Again, there are examples of that being done. It's just that in those cases, one needs to be extremely careful and the effect might not always be desirable.
And her elven blood could certainly play a role with a potion that interacts with blood.
@@Nerazmus Exactly what I said, partially. I didn’t talk about the books but yeah. Ciri is no ordinary human. She has incredible power within her that is also affected by her Elven ancestry. Elves predate the world’s existence if I’m not mistaken. In mythology it is sometimes believed that older entities are stronger than younger ones, and sometimes vice versa. Although Carnthir is older than Ciri, she was still a powerful opponent for him, but he defeated her still.
The Tomira exploit worked for me, did it about a week ago on the Series X.
On the beehives not killing people, that must've been done in a hotfix, rather than the next-gen update. In my pre-ng+ throwaway run, I used the beehive to kill & loot Tomira. Day 1 of the next-gen update.
Henselt's death was not fixed on Iorveth's path. The game still behaves as if Roche killed him only the import on pc changes the dialogues with he died in the battle with radovid
That thing from Iorveth path is... Disappointment, because CDPR deleted whole plot related to W2 Iorveth path.
it's 2023 and we have still content. thanks xLetalis for awesome work
6:31 Are you able to hang this laurel as a paint now? I tried to do it in a vanilla game but you could not do anything with it really, which was a shame as I valued it very much.
yes!
@@xLetalis Great. Thanks for the info and kudos to CDPR for changing that. It will definitely be hanging in some prominent place in my home now ;)
i tought Ciri made the vampire itself drink the black blood, making its own blood turn poisnous to it and killed it, the subtitles litrally says Let it Drink, not Drank it.
I ran into a bug with tomira. In a ng+ I never visited her to get the herbs for the nilfgaard quest. because I already had them. I visited her much later when I was in velen. And during the dialogue cutscene, you can see the girl sleeping in the background. but when you ask about the girl (this choice shouldn't even be present), the girl in the background is gone and tomira says that the girl died after you left and geralt explains his circumstances.
hah, interesting
8:57 I always think this means she somehow throw him potion to his mouth rather than she drink it, like it is quiet obvious option i think, as game stating theese potions are poison+ highly doubt ciri will not be dead after bite that can go through armor
she says she feigned weakness, just as Geralt did in Orianna's trailer
I also found a new bug regarding the new forgotten wolven swords. If you do the witcher contract at the border to novigrad, where you get a pass for crossing the border, you can encounter a scoiatel gang and the take your weapons, if you have these 2 swords in your inventory from the a save game before new game +, oncve you get them back they get leveld up(regarding your current level) so you cant use them anymore. check it out if it is of any interest.
That argument with Sukrus & his Brother in Law had me in stitches.
Wish we got to see Iorveth again.
Hopefully in 4 we'll get to see him.
I hope one day we'll get an exclusive list of all the changes they've applied to the new version. Everything that was added, altered and removed, neatly typed into one big table!
What ruined the fun for me a bit is that after the next-gen update the toilet from Crow’s Perch is no longer interactive. At some points during the day there was a soldier goes in, closing the door and you could actually knock on it. No more fun after the update because there is no door now. 😅
6:58 ahh... I see how Lambert thinks of himself as being better witcher than Geralt. He DOES NOT lose his pants after encounter with a woman ... He knows this is a battle, one must be always ready to counterattack. That's why he sleeps in full gear.
Is the Keira and Lambert thing a mod or in the game now??
it's a mod

Just a heads up, Teigr sword (the one that gaetan gives you) also shows its scabbard in corvo bianco.
Man they could honestly add a couple new quest, easter eggs, armor, and weapons once a week for months and I would be fine with that or even a new expansion.
Did you notice that the Scoiatel member that you can rescue from Person's in Distress in Novigrad, after you follow him to his camp as he promises you a reward, they mention about Yorveth for a second there!
oh nice, I do remember him, not quite sure about the Iorveth mention though
@@xLetalis I am replaying it and one of the Scoiatel member says "Have you heard the rumors about Yorveth?". It was a beautiful moment as just like you, I feel having Yorveth in Witcher 3 would make the perfect game even legendary. So it was a good Easter Egg.
6:50 my friend, that also happens with ciri sword in the old gen version, but only with the regular stands, the one you're putting the forgotten wolf swords doesn't have that problem (I use that one to display ciri sword since the old gen version).
I heard that when you put the sword from Haatori back in the chest, its level does not rise.
gotta try it :)
I have always said the guards were needlessly over-levelled, it ruined my immersion slightly. I get that it was intended to discourage killing guards as that's not something Geralt would do, but there was no reason to kill them anyway even if I played an overpowered build since guards drop no XP, gold or gear upon death. Now the game is more realistic and more convenient for an OCD looter like me.
I agree with this, as someone who played it for the first time on the next gen update, I attacked the nilfgaardian camp and quickly realized it was completely useless since they not only drop nothing but costed me money since it costed me sword's durability. Never bothered attacking a guard again, but knowing I can kill a bunch of guards very easily makes complete sense for Geralt's character.
For Gwent to receive the Roach Card you only need to download the stand alone game you don't even need to play it.
Only if they changed it now as I only downloaded the GWENT game and did not even open it.
I hated the fact that the master crafted armor looked like a witch hunter gear.
I don’t know if anyone else pointed this out yet but I noticed that bug with sword scabbards also happened with the superior wolven swords in the sword rack at corvo bianco.
The black blood potion is just mashed garlic with a touch of black pepper, don't sweat it.

It would have been nice to receive, instead of the Witch Hunter's Armor, maybe the Oathbreaker's Armor; Vesemir's Armor; or even or the amor from the beginning of the game with a nice enough level...
I saw a picture with Geralt headed to Fyke Isle with 2 shadows on the boat, the second shadow was female, meaning Annabelle is watching Geralt since he arrives or since he's close to the island. The guy said it's easier to see it during sunsets. I've never seen that, no idea if it's new.
I've seen the "ghost" behind Geralt once he's inside the tower but a shadow in his boat when he's getting close is new to me.
gotta have a look, so there seems to be an invisible woman casting a shadow inside the boat?
@@xLetalis Exactly! In the picture I saw there were 2 shadows, one for Geralt and at the other side of the boat there was another shadow, clearly a woman but just the shadow.
Oh and the Fast Travel post at Crow's perch....you need to go there for it to become available....otherwise it wont show. Someone was complaining about it on Twitter...you have to go inside the inner keep...and not just near the armourer's table.
yes and you need to advance the story too, possibly finish the Bloody Baron quest
@@xLetalis Yes that's right....I always do, so maybe I forget some people never finish it all....which is weird....it's a great quest one of the most moving too.
Two things, One being that it's good that the guards can't be looted or else Geralt would be going on a massacre. Two being that they could easily recolor the armor in that quest and take of that little emblem on the chest off and it would look alot better. If they didn't want to make a unique armor that is.
Can confirm that on console, the Iorveth mention to the dwarf during Swords and Dumplings quest doesn't work. I always choose Iorveth path when playing Witcher 3, and I've done Swords and Dumplings twice since the update. Must still be a pc exclusive dialogue like some other references . . .
The dwarf's dialogue always worked on the console, but I don't know about the Saskia dialogue, this one was never present
conflicting accounts... perhaps different consoles? :)
Definitely not pc exclusive, I had it on PS5 the other day but strangely I had chosen Roches path in the choices at the start
@@xLetalis I'm on xbox And I just tested it again (cuz I have a save before the quest) and the dwarf recognizes me from Vergen and Yarpin, but there isn't the option like in the video

She try’s to get you to romance yen. I of coarse was rushing through the game so I never helped triss and I told yen it was over.
Your videos showing what you have discovered and learned are Always a joy to watch.
a change i noticed was all of my previous data magically disappearing and my new save not being compatible
damn :( hasn't happened to me thankfully
One more small thing hasn't been fixed in the Master Armorers quest. The crossbow bolt fired at Geralt by the Nilfgaardian general (while testing the armor) misses him instead of bouncing off the armor. This used to work in the very early versions of the original game, but was broken sometime in the later patches.
The wolven swords scabbards also float awkwardly above on the wall when the swords are placed.
Love how the password is a shoutout to the song of the same name :). Glad the kind healer is now immune to bees.
That's just sooooo sad, Nothing more from Iorveth.....
Good game though
Eh, the reason Geralt could pay off the dwarf wasn't because of Witcher 2 per se. They first met in the books when Yarpen Zigrin, a couple of other dwarves and Geralt went hunting for the golden dragon. And then again they travelled together later in the books.
6:57 how did that happen? Is it true or some mod cuz that was crazy.
that is a mod :D
@@xLetalis which one i wanna try it too. Can it bring more characters at corvo bianco?
On the topic of oversights, the forktail that flies over your head when you first arrive at Kaer Morhen has been fixed. Geralt has two voicelines that state it was a forktail, yet in the old gen it was a wyvern model. Now it really is a forktail.
Also, I don't know if it is only a problem on my end, but in the Lord of Undvik quest when you free Vigi from his cell, Geralt's lower body completely disappears. I had the netflix armor equipped at the time. Everything goes back to normal as soon as the cutscene ends.
The Werewolf Decoction only works while on Toussaint, sadly. I tested it on Novigrad region, near Brunwich (HoS DLC), Skellige and Velen, but only on Toussaint the buff gets active. Similarly the Foglet Decoction works in all areas of the game, except for Toussaint (which is rather curious). Both items are probably bugged (but the Foglet one doesn't work long before the next-gen patch). I hope CDPR fix this in a future update. PS: I'm playing on PS4.

9:06 - On Ciri drinking Witcher Potions: So in my 'head canon', or theory, to explain this away without breaking the game's continutity/established Lore & Canon was this; Technically, Ciri doesn't specifically say that she _drank_ the Black Blood potion. Rather she only says that "But a dose of Black Blood did the trick. We fought a while, i feigned a mistimed dodge and let it drink. The rest was easy." Now yes, i know, that's pretty damning. But let's allow ourselves to reach a little.
We know that Ciri has magical powers, yes?
We know that not only that, but Ciri is also the most powerful living magic user on the planet, potentially on all planets, yes?
We know that her most frequently used form of this magical power is short-distance teleports, Warcraft-Blink or DC's The Flash-style, yes?
So if you take those three little fun-facts, plus her overall intelligence on display throughout the games and books, what _i personally believe_ happens is one of two things:
1. When she says "feigned a mistimed dodge and let it drink", she's being a little bit sassy/on-the-nose. Rather what she's saying is she feigned the mistimed dodge to bait a lunge and then the moment the Vampire went for the lunge she blink-teleports towards it with the potion vial in hand, and jams it down the beast's throat/in it's mouth, then, just as fast blink-teleports away. The Vampire, unable to keep up with the sheer speed of "The Lady of Time & Space" bites down (expecting a mouthful of neck/throat, or a silly witcher girl's hand) breaking the glass. The Glass lacerates the shit out of it's mouth, meaning the potion doesn't even need to be swallowed to intermingle with the vamp-blood to cause it's effect, nevermind the fact that of course a little of the potion would be swallowed anyways, and it fucks the vampire up.
2. At some point before the fight, just as a precaution, Ciri brews the Black Blood and all that, but then slathers it all around her neck, shoulders, and upper chest. That way if at any point the Vampire _does_ happen to get a feeding-type of bite in, it will inadvertantly suck the potion off of her skin/clothes/collar as it's trying to suck her blood.
In closing, the reason i like this idea/theory so much (and why i've chosen to believe it as part of the game's canon all these years) is because the normal way a Black Blood potion works is, The Witcher drinks the potions and the potion in turn slightly alters his blood in a way that causes great harm to Vampires & Necrophages. So imagine what it might then do if instead of going through that process, where it is consumed once, then diluted extremely as the "concentrate" sublimates with the rest of the blood in a Witcher's circulatory system, it was introduced directly to the Vampire's (in it's concentrated form) digestive system, as is the case in Example 2, or to both it's Digestive _&_ Circulatory system as in Example 1.
In my mind at least, it would be orders of magnitude more potent, and may literally cause the blood of the vampire to immediately begin boiling, causing expansion and vapor-build up, potentially resulting in a BLEVE. Or it may just interact so maliciously/caustically with all the organic tissues in a vampire that they literally begin to dissolve as if you forced them to swallow a condom full of 'piranha solution' and then punched them in the stomach and burst the balloon.
Who knows?
(Edited to fix about 15 typos, if someone's actually gonna take the time to read all this psycho-babble, they ought not to have to deal with shitty spelling & grammar too.)
I don't remember if you covered this but theres a Nilfgaardian helmet at that camp that has a bug. it gives you a big red block head if you equip it on ps4.

@@xLetalis how you proceeded with that whole quest since there’s like 4 parts to it from different people
@@rand0mGT do them all, the order doesn't matter
I'm late and all, but the thing about the guards is that you never even kill them. The only finisher you get is the headbutt and their "corpses" don't leave a pool of blood under them. So it's fair to assume you only ever beat them unconscious. And I'm not sure, but if you "die" to them, you just wake up on the ground. (think this happened to me once)
This has nothing to do with the video. But I noticed there's a small detail that the developers added in the Next Gen edition. Whenever you're harvesting herbs for your potions' ingredients. Geralt's hand moves slightly as if reaching something, just slightly below elbow reach, and puts something in his pocket. I haven't noticed that in the Old Gen edition. Usually we just stopped abruptly as if Gerlat has a mild seizure whenever we're harvesting herbs while walking or running.
for anyone wanting to make money in the witcher 3
if you have blood and wine you have the quest a knight errant, or something along those lines
in that quest you essentially liberate locations from bandits, the best location is a castle east of beauclair, you wil enter and you wil kill all the bandits save for the runner that tries to reach the signal fire, this is simple enough, you then move trough towards the upper courtyard and start killing all the bandits there, when you are halfway trough a new wave of reinforcements should arrive due to the signal fire, kill them off as well
loot all the corpses in the courtyard but do not move into the keep, instead leave, go to the fast travel point, jump to any other point and then immediatly jump back, you can repeat this as much as you want
I tend to use this to do business with the grandmaster craftsman, he charges ludicrous prices for gettin grandmaster armor and this just helps to recover the cost getting at least a couple hundred crowns per sword allows you to earn back the money spent at least
I always assumed Ciri could drink Witcher potions because of the mutagens/mushrooms the witchers at Kaer Morhen were feeding her. Iirc Triss's POV seems to imply that her strength and speed were augmented by these and that they'd make her infertile eventually, so she's mutated in some way, just not as much as a full witcher who's gone through the Trial of the Grasses.
hey letais, not sure if you mentioned it in "details you have missed", but ciri has also a dialogue option for your mark from gaunter o dimm in skellige. you can ask her bout this (maybe earlier somewhere) in skellige, when ciri, yen and philip stand in circle. its nothing big or special, but im not sure if you mentioned it.

Tbh, the guards being a penalty makes sense but often times it was hard to even realise what you did to anger them. Thematically it also doesn't make sense that one guard outclasses Geralt. I think if they were just designed to be relentless and organised in attacking him, like all attacking at once, making it hard to dodge or block all of them.
In the Witcher TTRPG, any character can drink a potion or decoction without issue if they roll high enough on an Endurance check.

hey man love the video but can you please let me know what swords youre using here 1:04 and where can i get them
oh i'm not sure :O one of them seems like a tier of feline silver sword, probably mastercrafted
@@xLetalis aight thanks brother i will try building one and see how it goes
Respawns in settlements in general should have been delayed to at least once per week in game time, much like how inventory in vendors takes about that same amount of time to respawn. Without this, it is far too easy to keep farming domestic livestock like goats, geese, and cows for sellable loot, especially in White Orchard. Now that the guards are more balanced with the rest of the enemies in the game, it is far too easy to just farm them too for loot with every guard outpost, such as the Redanian Post at the bridge between Velen and Novigrad, as well as Reardon Manor for Nilfguaardian loot drops.
It is weird, I played the Witcher 3 on PS4 and I remember the conversation between van Hoorn and Sukrus in previous playthroughs. Same goes for the Vesemir dialogue about repairing the walls at Kaer Morhen in your video from three weeks ago (but I can't say for sure about the Anna Henrietta or Triss dialogue from that video). Anyway, great video as always!
Interesting, I tried 2 different hives and they didn't work
The scabbard detail actually isn’t new, that was happening to me on my last play through with my manticore swords i believe, i was playing on Switch
CDPR didn't fix anything on last gen, they just added the Netflix dlc, the new card and gear, new signs function and moved focus to next gen only
fun fact, you can still kill tomira, but you have to use a superior dragons dream. takes about three of them.
oddly she's the only killable shopkeep...... wish there were more, but the rest are like guards, you don't kill them but knock them out.
Just now I went to the armour smith in the main courtyard of novigrad who used to saw top notch swords before they patched it in the new update. Well I’m playing on v4.00 and he just said it again which took me by surprise
I ran into the problem with mounting the swords! I wondered what that was about. 😂
7:11 On my first playthrough, I got the Mastercrafted Wolven Armor, then I got the Witch Hunter Armor on my NG+ which sucks lmao
im playing through it again and they have not fixed some of the wondering countryside venders shops not opening in dialogue options. 45 hours into it ive just started looking for ciri in skellige ive done everything in vel n nov apart from couple of very high level contracts i know is alot to do when go back later 3rd time playing through it :)
But my brother, the dwarf dialogue was always there, even before the update. I remember that happening ever since my first playthrough
Well, i think Geralt definitely could be called a witch hunter, it's just that his methods are a little bit different)
To the world within the Witcher Universe its simply Witch hunter = killing witches and non humans such as elves, dwarves, which Geralt doesn't do for a living
@@David-nq8cv Who's talking about killing witches?
