+1 on the UI comments. Especially when trying to craft something...

+2 100% needs looking at

I concur - ive just killed the Griffin and the crafting of bombs, the signs thing and potions etc is just a royal pain in the backside.

I'd like more quickslots for potions to be honest. 2 is a PITA, you just end up going to the inventory screen and swapping them over.

I don't know if anyone else is in the same boat, but I've been playing this since release and I'm still only lvl 12. I stepped into Oxenfurt for the first time last night!

I only get to play about 1-2 hours every other night or so. I'm away for a few weeks soon too... It's going to take me months to finish this.

Same as me! I expect to still be playing this still on my 1st play thorough in Autumn

Doesn't help that I have to go to every question mark on the map too, and do occasionally exceed the 2 hours, at the expense of sleep!

I've stepped away until I know I'll have more time. I've got others on my plate.

I'll come back to it, but I'll probably play over winter when nights are darker. At the moment, I don't like being stuck on the sofa playing a game until the later hours...

HAHAHAHA, who am I kidding. Course I do.

I really want to play this, but seriously, I'd need to binge on it over a weekend or something to get into it. Can't just dib dab in this game.

I was similar to you, plodding on, really enjoying it. I decided to look into Novigrad and must have gone up three levels in two sessions! The main quests give a huge amount of XP. Just checked and I have 55 hours invested, must be playing more than I thought.

I can resist no longer! where's the cheapest place to get this from guys? digital download.

Just checked... 53hrs only 19% complete!

I do like to explore mind you

Only one DLC this week.

Don't get fooled by the percentage next to time played on GOG, that is only a percentage of achievements.

xraycat87 · 30 Jun 2015 at 00:35

just installed witcher 3, and it's using about 70% of my CPU?

Is that right or have I not set it up correctly?

Not sure about cpu usage

I would try and turn hairworks off and see how that alters the usage as it kills about 20fps.

Watched a quick video with the same cpu as your sig and they were getting roughly 45-65% usage on theirs at high settings.

Oh, didn't realise that.

Anyway... finally ventured to Novigrad and changed all my orens/florens for crowns, loaded now

Hairworks is off, I find it srange my overall CPU usage was above 70%, will see if I've updated the game...

I can't link, but the press guy said that the 1.07 patch will feature something that should "please a lot of fans".

In a perfect world I would hope it was proper quest levelling and much better controls, but it is probably NG+
