Currently downloading The Witcher 3 for the first time. Got any advice for me?
So I just read this book on history of games called "Blood, Sweat and Pixels" and was fascinated by the chapter on The Witcher 3 and mostly how the team put in so much thought and care in every single side quest. And seems that there are a lot of moral decision to be made on each adventure. So I finally decided to give it a try. Got any advice for me?
You're viewing a single thread.
As for mods:
The Witcher 3 HD Reworked Project Arguably one of the best reworks ever.
They just drive home the "cold wilderness" vibe.
Then Better Combat Enhanced Because that's one of the main critque points of this game.
And some more
And for DLC, i was especially impressed with "Blood and Wine" sidequests.
About helping sane monsters
There will be a point where your actions will be judged.
Would you recommend playing without mods first?
I would say it's entirely up to you. Though, experience with games like Gothic 3 (don't even start without the Community Patch and a visual glitch fix dor trees and the sea) led me to mod first, personally. If you dig a bit deeper, there are LOD fixes (buildings from distance) for Whiterun, for example. Btw, the bumpmapping shader of reshade works especially nice for Witcher 3' roads.
Mods make this game better. I didn't like inventory management and the equipment repair mechanics in this game, so I modded those things out. Fall damage also sucks, so I modded that as well, Geralt is a witcher, he should be able to stick a landing from 10m up.
