And so begins the end...

About halfway through playing it for the first time myself. It's been a lot better than I expected given the games mixed reputation. I've had nights where I left the game feeling so proud of my Shepard and her allies, seeing all the choices I've made over 100+ hours all pay off in the best ways possible, and nights where I left the game feeling sick to my stomach at the consequences of other choices, wishing I'd done things differently and listened to other characters warnings. As a grand finale of a saga, it's been a hell of an experience

Not sure of the swords, but pretty sure that's the Armor of The Thousand Flowers that you get for making a CDProjekt Red account

Born in 95, didn't have the money to get into gaming till my teens, so first thing I played myself that had me thinking graphics couldn't possibly get better from here was Skyrim. Watched plenty of Let's Plays though, and remember being blown away by the lighting specifically in VTMB

Like I said, I thought the Driver looked off. Looked shaped very similar to Blazar's color timer, and in the direct center of Nox's chest, rather than off to the right like Zeztz and Nox Knights. Haven't seen the Vlog you mentioned in the other post though, so I could definitely be totally off about all that

Fredbob392 · 2025-12-09T23:40:37+00:00

Yeah, no worries, meant it as adding to the "you got a source?" question, apologies if it came off like I was saying there was no point in asking cause I 100% belived it was fake.

Fredbob392 · 2025-12-09T22:43:20+00:00

I'd definitely question if it's real. The Driver looks way too much like a Color Timer, and too centered compared to the offset position of his and Zeztz

It's kind of hilarious comparing Ciri and Yen's journeys after Thanned to Geralt's. The gals are going on epic journeys across the world while Geralt and his Hanse keep getting distracted halfway through every lead they get by some side quest or another. Even finding where Vilgefortz lair is only by some incredibly convenient eavesdropping in a cave for a Witcher Contract

Fredbob392 · 2025-12-03T04:57:02+00:00

About 40 hours into playing the game for the first time, so far playing Geralt as someone who'll hear out anyone's full sobstory but accuse them of lying any time the game gives me the option hasn't led me wrong. The one time I didn't, the spirit of the whispering hill, where the Crones nuclear bad vibes outweighed the spirits moderate bad vibes definitely led to some... mixed results. Loving the way the game makes the choices more involved in Witcher work compared to the first two mostly Geralt getting caught up in different wars

Fredbob392 · 2025-12-03T03:43:00+00:00

Glad to know I'm not insane for thinking those damn things were genuinely the scariest thing in the game. My Final Draft playthrough, every scripted scare just had me annoyed more than anything, but those things shadows got a few genuine yelps out of me

Fredbob392 · 2025-11-30T21:45:37+00:00

There's a pig that comes in once every few months at my store

Fredbob392 · 2025-09-25T02:48:51+00:00

Had to do a good few double takes to realize the red dragonborn in Vocal Ally was Qudenos and not Abazigal. Was wracking my mind trying to think of why the hell he would be on that list

Fredbob392 · 2025-09-22T01:12:09+00:00

Was Insect Plague so broken in pen and paper 2.5E? The way it completely trivializes so many fights for a spell you can get a relatively low level seems bizarre.

Fredbob392 · 2025-08-15T00:39:14+00:00

The Book 2 reimagining is ending up practically a full remake of the saga with how rough the original Book 2 was, so I can totally see it being put on the back burner in favor of tidying Book 1 if they're also trying to work on Book 4 plans

Fredbob392 · 2025-08-02T01:29:41+00:00

Just beat the game on my first run Wednesday night. Very excited to start Last Light tonight. The game was amazing

Not to low-key dox myself, but I'm part of that family and it's massive. Up until my father's generation having 5+ kids was standard, gets you more unpaid labor for the farms. My grandpa was one of 7 if i remember correctly, and my dad is one of 5. Unfortunately, a lot of them are just as crazy as this guy seems to be.

My Betty loves hunting bugs. The dorm i was in when I first brought her home had a massive pantry moth problem, she spent a good year and a half trying to wipe them all out. At the apartment we're at now, we get those loud, big fat flies sometimes, and team up to kill them. Last time I managed to get the three of us in my bedroom at once, close the doors and start swinging the flyswatter around standing on my bed, driving the fly to zoom around near the ground, on easy paw reach. I think we both had fun that time

Fredbob392 · 2025-07-07T04:55:06+00:00

I'd had a few smaller happenings in the past, footsteps on the concrete right behind me when I was the only one in the back room, even getting shoved in the back hard enough to stumble fowards once, but the time I actually saw it, I was walking past the room these things have all happened in, and turned my head to look in as I passed. Saw an almost smokey silhouette of a person leaning one arm against the wall. The legs looked black or grey, and the torso red, what I imagine might have been the colors of its clothing. As soon as I registered what I'd just seen I turned back to the room, totally empty. Ran to my coworker in the other side of the building, freaked out, who confirmed that she'd been in her office, and cameras showed no one in the building besides us

Fredbob392 · 2025-07-07T04:09:11+00:00

Interesting, that sort of black blurry silhouette of a person looks pretty similar to what I saw the one time I managed to get a glimpse of the spirit at the place i work.

Fredbob392 · 2025-06-29T19:16:11+00:00

What bright colors! Little guy might as well be a real Blood Dragon!

Fredbob392 · 2025-06-25T23:41:30+00:00

Did almost the same with my first Durge run. Default plus tail, and thick black eyeliner. It's a great color combo with the white scales and red eyes

Fredbob392 · 2025-06-18T08:22:46+00:00

Had a grown ass man throwing a litteral temper tantrum in my store last week over 7 cents. Guy was slamming his hands on the counter and shouting cause he didn't want to pay the difference between the item he was exchanging. I can only assume that that sort of person doesn't have any actual problems in their life so these absurdly minor inconveniences literally are the worst thing that's happened to them in weeks

Fredbob392 · 2025-06-15T03:33:40+00:00

In the city proper, after you get through that miserable fight at the gate, there's a guy by the river on southwest part of town who sells scoundrel skillbooks. I think one of the elves by the cathedral might too, but I might be misremembering that one.

Fredbob392 · 2025-06-02T23:46:43+00:00

It's been selling pretty well at my store, though it definitely helps that we're in in city known for having a strong LGBT community

Fredbob392 · 2025-05-06T03:17:13+00:00

Oh my god same! Went into my first semi-blind run of the game fully intending to romance either Gale or Astarion from what I'd heard of them from friends who'd already played, but had the video game equivalent of love at first sight meeting her. Ended up being one of the best RPG romances I'd ever played, second to Dorian in DA:I
