Witcher 3

[Raymond Lin]

Please tell me I'm not the only one who's going to be sad enough to smell the manual. I love the smell of new game manuals

I smell new books, never tried manuals though.

 

[blairw]

Think I am going to pick this up tomorrow despite already having a big backlog of games to play!

 

[pauLAW]

Are we able to play this today then? or will they keep it locked out until tomorrow

 

[Davey_Pitch]

If you've got it today I don't think there's any reason why you wouldn't be able to play. Just be aware that there is meant to be a day one patch which may or may not be available yet.

I've bought it digitally and can confirm there is definitely a patch

 

[Kerplunk]

Amazon order has been despatched, delivery tomorrow. Stupidly excited for this.

Played this a bit over the weekend. I'll put a spoiler for my next sentence even though there aren't any spoilers!

Spoiler

The first hour or 2 is quite boring. I've fought a few wolves and a Griffin and the rest has literally been cut scene>go to another area>cut scene.

Biron moaning? Well I never.

 

[biron_w]

I'm not really moaning. Just stating the facts.
I did nearly die on the first enemy encounter I had as I forgot there was a block button

 

[antijoke]

Now now, we're all friends here. We can admit our faults.

 

[Mull3t]

Nothing for me today even though got dispatch email Friday morning Oh well best turn up tomorrow.

 

[kmetek]

just bought it today, getting it tomorrow.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

I'll be getting up early before work tomorrow to get this started, I've got a busy week at work though which is annoying, including an event tomorrow night

 

[Lateralus68]

Will be having a late one tonight as my digital copy unlocks at midnight.

Will be buying this on Wednesday for the XO. I have never played any of TW series. I won't miss out on much will i? Been looking forward to RPG for ages! Guessing i won't get any better prices than £44?

You can get it for a little less on digital download by using cdkeys and their xbox/ps4 vouchers deals.

Confusing as hell due to the pacing of it and I didn't get the impression that I would need to understand everything fully to play the new game. Correct me if im wrong though.

well i understood it no problem but then again i finished both games

 

[baldmonk]

in all honesty i think you will be able to play this game and enjoy it a lot without knowing anything from the previous games but there may be times when your like who is this woman? who are these ppl and why are they fighting etc
