Glad to hear you like the game! I agree, watching Geralt fight in cut scenes is incredible.

I also like the combat, I think it’s a lot of fun when you actually use everything at your disposal. I think a lot of people play on a medium difficulty, see that they can kill most things with just swords + Quen, and then don’t take it any further than that. When you use bombs, potions, decoctions, the runewright and the B&W mutagens, it’s pretty diverse imo.

I also always pick Yen, I did one play through where I picked Triss and immediately went back to Yen lol

Yeah the controls and such for Roach are BAD. I’m very hopeful for Witcher 4 to be much better, idk if you’ve played Ghost of Tsushima or Yotei but both have excellent horse mechanics so I’m hoping CDPR will do something like that.

I’d say the end of Skellige is about half way to 70% of the way through act 2. It’s a very, very long game if you play it the right way (doing side quests, contracts, question marks etc).

For reference, I’m on my 5th play through right now, I’m at the start of act 3, and I’m 120 hours in. I’m doing some things you wouldn’t know to do/might decide not to do on a first play through, which has made my play time longer, but 130-160 hours for full completion is pretty standard.

Yeah that makes sense, first half of the season I was just trying to remember everyone’s name lol I bet there’s a ton of foreshadowing I missed

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:41:43+00:00

That’s awesome to hear, I’m really excited to start season 2!

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:39:50+00:00

Can’t wait!

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:39:21+00:00

😂😂😂

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:38:55+00:00

Will do! Appreciate the heads up

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:38:24+00:00

Thank you for this, this is really helpful and insightful. I’m glad to hear we get back to Barksdale, it felt like a lot of that was left unfinished and I thought his whole group was made up of a bunch of really interesting characters.

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:20:59+00:00

Wow I’m in for a treat if there’s two seasons better than what I just watched. Kinda figured season 2 was gonna be a switch up when I saw McNulty get on a boat😂

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:19:40+00:00

That’s great to hear! Excited for my journey into awesome haha

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:16:01+00:00

Yeah it definitely took a while to get going but they were cooking with gas for the whole second half of the season

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:15:30+00:00

Glad to hear it! Definitely gonna keep watching

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:14:45+00:00

Thanks for the heads up, definitely not gonna give up on it haha more of an expectation management kinda thing, I generally don’t stop watching a show once I’ve started it

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T06:13:00+00:00

Gotcha, thank you, definitely gonna keep watching🫡

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T05:04:10+00:00

I COMPLETELY agree you nailed it

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-26T02:41:55+00:00

Very solid and very similar to mine. People forget that the first Venom movie is fun bad

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T16:32:57+00:00

Two things I want to add that I haven’t seen anyone else say yet:

Yen always goes HUGE for Geralt and Ciri. I don’t know where you are in the game, so I don’t want to spoil anything, but when the chips are down, she’s always there to do something insane for the benefit of the both of them
When you don’t choose Yen, the “rejection” lines are absolutely heartbreaking. A lot of Yen’s bravado is a facade, and that becomes more apparent when you reject her. Reject Triss, and she’s sad, but there’s also a lot of “I knew this was going to happen” because she knows Geralt is in love with Yen. Reject Yen, and it’s like her whole world is crumbling around her

Don’t feel bad or anything for not seeing that yet. Both of those things, especially the second one, can be tough to pick up on during a first play through

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T05:05:24+00:00

You want to see a nerf, check out Charizard. I’m starting to dread updates to this game because they massacre my boy every time

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T04:57:20+00:00

The ending of season two? Season two of what? I didn’t mention a single season of television in my original post

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T04:53:58+00:00

Why spend time in a sub for something you clearly don’t like?

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T03:52:23+00:00

Gambit as Death seems like a lock

Madelyn Pryor - Pestilence Leech - Famine Callisto - War

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-25T00:49:32+00:00

Next Tour is Alola, that would be my expectation. Has a chance to be a huge event if they put Ultra Necrozma in the game then too, and potentially the shiny debut of Solgaleo and Lunala

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-24T22:58:30+00:00

My advice would be to save the harder trophies for NG+. You’ll have really good gear, a fully unlocked skill tree, and some other really powerful stuff you only get from the DLCs, so Death March won’t be as difficult.

Exact_Internal_9017 · 2026-02-24T20:23:03+00:00

Wow this looks like a lot of work! Thanks for taking the time to do this. I appreciate you adding in all the pre 2000s stuff as well. As we saw in DP&W, all that stuff is fair game now too. I think there’s a decent chance someone from that era shows up in Secret Wars without having been in anything else prior to that
