    roachie so cute, he wanders over to water troughs or sweet hey treats while he's waiting.  got for him the best saddle bags i could find

    Wait. Translators made Płotka a male horse in English?!

    smiley no, (unless of course, at a certain point in the quest line, you visited the emperor and got a Nilfgaardian stallion as a gift....)

    This is nice to hear.

     

    who is Plotka?  Roach's sister?

    It's the original Polish name of all Geralt's horses (who have historically all been female horses). Płotka (note the special "l" pronounced like "w" in English) is a Polish word for Roach (the fish kind of roach, not the insect, just in case the game doesn't make it clear).

    okay.  thanks!

    Pwotkaheart sounds pleasanter than roach.

    have you listened to the witcher3 soundtrack.  is the vocals she singing in Polish?

    Sorry I'm not much on soundtracks (I turn the music off in most contemporary games), but if you have a link I could check.

     

    found one!  clip on the tubes.  lyrics start about 24:27 minutes in

    smiley  thanks.

    It's definitely not Polish. Could be some sort of "medieval" English actually "enhanced" by the accent - listen how many "the"-sounds are there, I don't know of any other language to use this sound as often as English does it.

    Polish will have loads of "sh" and "ch" type sounds, vowels somewhat similar to Spanish, and the "r" sound is harder than in Spanish. Check out the songs from that old Polish TV show and from the first game:

    You're welcome =)

    No idea if you're into extreme metal at all, but in case you are, the leading Polish metal export Vader had a Witcher-themed song in English, and the official video also used the animation based on the first Witcher story by pan Sapek, the same (freaking amazing) animation that opened the first TW game.

    thinking of doing a potion of clearance  

    i haz 3 points in axii puppet i'm not using axii in battle much, could put thos in whirl, only have 1 in whirl right now.

    i have 2 pints in undying, seen it work only once, the lvl 30 cyclops blocking the road north on the east coast in skellige, and it didnt save me.
    ended up rolling passed him, was a place of power there, luckily was above where the cyclops was sleeping, didnt have to defeat it after all.

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    axii is extrexemely useful with certain dialog options in certain quests; can save you a lot of money, time, puzzling, persuading unwilling characters and/or help you avoid a tough fight..........

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    did my 1st game capture but my mic was too low >.<  cant hear me at all  dunno what hapopened did do a short test record, thought volume was okay.

    there's giant spiders in Toussant.  big hoary spider.

    why did it have to be spiders

    hit lvl 21

    got the gryffyndor smiley silver sword.   defeated a royal wyvern and a chort. chort a lil less scary than a fiend.  lured the chort with essence of fiend dung  tee hee.

    found a cave with a missing brother. lvl 33 quest. missing brother gonna be missing a while longer yet.

    helped Zoltan 'acquire' gwent cards.  the high stakes gwent game is lvl26. waiting a few more levels.  

    maxed out whirl. whee. went on the road to fight to some bandits and practice.
    1 pt in Rend.  helped with the chort. somewhere picked up another lesser red mutagen.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    monster thingee in Tedoras dropped a lesser red mutagen, think was a Devourer

    visited a couple times via fast travel, they respawned.  only dropped the 1 so far.  

     

    ​scary leshen

     

    this looks like the elf i won the Cirilla card from
    when i asked him to play gwent, he said, 'yoo really have no one else to play with'

     

    can't find a devourer card, mebbe there is no card for them

    i need a better mic.  

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    went back to take on those unbeatable monsters when my geralt was lowly lvl 17.

    shredded the ekimara in the byways like tissue paper laugh

    that laughing gargoyle in the very south, chucking rocks, almost miss him now though.

    3 lesser red mutagens away from my 2nd greater mutagen.
    the greater red in character screen with 3 red tiles, giving me a 40% attack boost.
    a nother greater red will give 80% total attack power. angelcooldevil

    took 1 green tile adds poison percents chance to my weapons.  
    the last mutagen boos slot opens at lvl 28 iirc.  a ways to go.  

    when i'm lvl 40 will prolly go for the blood & wine expansion.

    there's some kind of cyclops or giant 1st battle in toussant,
    anyone remember what lvl critter is at?

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    What's the advised starting level again for B&W? 34? That's about it's level, but better make sure you're over that level.... It's a tough one..... (some 'Northern Wind bombs may come in handy, preferably the superior type winkcheeky)

     

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    lvl 34?  has a ways yet. needs 2000 xp to next level nows. 

     

    is raining in downtown novingrad  smiley  hunten alghoul  
    my voice sounds so tired >.< was overtired giggly by the end.  walked around passaflora  tee hee took out a torch is dark in there

    Interesting playthrough you've got. Already busy with the gwent quest, and still looking for Tamara.... (In the wrong place, but you know that....)

    Ah, yes, selling of all those fancy ingredients you just about never use..... good money making items though.... (well, some of them....)

    I think you won't regret getting Blood & Wine... 

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    "Big beast. Tackling it single-handed? None too wise"
    "Neither is love born of wisdom, Witcher."

    Toussaint, the land of love and wine... and big beasts...... cheeky

    My battle with Golyat. There was some sort of glitch with the game, as the northern wind bombs didn't do what they're supposed to do in this fight....

    But dodging around got the job done (and some use of potions and oil of course).

     

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    couldnt see Golyat's level.  tough fight. !

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    blood n wine install d/l been saying 94.31 mb for hours.

    the agony of waiting

  • glaseyeglaseye Posts: 1,311

    Ouch, sounds like the download is not progressing very well

    Do you have the 'Hearts of Stone' expansion as well?
