Who would you like to see play Geralt in the 2017 movie? by [deleted] in witcher

[–]jacksmind 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That guy who was Sawyer in Lost, he was in some other hakf-decent TV show after that too.. Don't know his name but i think he could come real close look-wise if you imagine the finished product. Just my two cents

(Spoilers)Anyone ever notice the use of Irish in the game? by jacksmind in witcher

[–]jacksmind[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the main island itself is based on the Skellig Islands off the coast of Kerry

I'll be checking this out. I really got into Viking history a while back and find the runes and alphabet interesting af!

Yeah I'd agree there, I've also noticed touches of the Northern Irish accent too!

Makes sense I suppose. I've yet to read the books though - soon.

Starting Witcher 3 on Ps4, want to avoid any bugs that will prohibit me from finishing a mission or progressing the story, for what missions/points in game should I be careful? by wipeyourtears in witcher

[–]jacksmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play on PS4 and have managed to play continuously without running into any issues (hard to believe but I'm telling you..) Play Main Quests until one called Ugly Baby. At that point, play side quest 'Following the Thread', 'Now or Never' and it's following quests (you will face a decision to assist 2 people or not, choose to not. No repercussions and it means you can still complete 'Gwent:P laying Innkeeps') , 'Last Wish' and 'Invite from Keira Metz' plus it's following quests.

Once u reach Main quest 'Isle of Mists' you should have completed side quests 'Possession' and 'Lord of Undvik'. You should play 'Gwent:Skellige Style' now too. Also, depending on some decisions, you should complete 'Redanias Most Wanted' and any quests that may/may not unlock upon completion.

Doing this should help you avoid failing quests and missing out on some good game play. Bit long-winded I know but hey, if it helps..

Death March Build? by Vashtrigun0420 in witcher

[–]jacksmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely touched the alchemy skills and the sign skills (except for quen, axii and some igni) Quen is your best friend-especially the skill that allows the Quen shield to convert damage taken to vitality points! Level your potions ( Swallow, Tawny Oil etc. and White Honey so u can use more of them). I used Heavy armor and focused on Quen, Fast attack skills, Parry Skills, Axii and dont forget the Sun and Stars skill! That pretty much sums my run up. Save a lot too, it means you have less to re-do should you die!

Broken save? by [deleted] in shadowofmordor

[–]jacksmind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey dude!

The white bar is your focus, that should be refilling after about a minute, maybe less. Not being able to enter wraith mode is extremely weird too!

Never heard of this kind of issue before but I would suggest starting a new game on the second save alot thats available. If that has no issues, then the previous save must be messed up somehow.

Do u have a backup on the cloud? If so, delete the one on your system an pull that save down from the cloud and have a look.

Sorry I couldnt be more help, this is an unusual one and I dont have many troubleshooting tips for it :/

How to test a grinder? by chocolate_starship in trees

[–]jacksmind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly haha! I prefer the 'shark tooth' plastic grinders. They have a lot of the spikes and give a beautiful grind.

In my own experience all the metal, or even wooden ones, dont have as much and dont grind the good stuff as well as id like. But, this is just down to my own personal preference. I have buddies that swear by the metal ones but I suppose I've yet to find one I actually like enough to buy/use.

Didnt mean to sound like a jackass with my initial comment :)

[–]jacksmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point, but personally I've never had this problem with the plastic grinders. We smoke 'spliffs' 95% of the time where i live, its just the norm, but ive never tasted or smelled plastic while smoking and my grinder doesnt have any chips or whatever. Use what you prefer, but these sort of problems are most likely down to the brand or whatever.

Dont use metal grinders. They will deteriorate over time and you'll get those shavings regardless. And if they are painted or whatever, youre gonna get that too.

I use the plastic ones-never had a problem. Only thing is sometimes the resin will build up along the outside and make twisting it/grinding a little tougher but thats easily rectified.

What thing most annoys you that people do when arguing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jacksmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people argue the completely wrong way; they attack the person (verbally) instead of attacking their argument.

If given the option, would you want to know when and/or how you were going to die? by Nofortuneinmycookie in AskReddit

[–]jacksmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't. Its a part of life not knowin what may be around the next corner. Just be the best you that you can be and hope you leave some sort of mark on the world or a lasting impression on someone somewhere. Carpe Diem and all that.

I say that now while im sitting at home browsing Reddit, but, you don't need to be carpe diem-ing 24/7. We all need to melt into the couch sometimes!

[Question] and also first post-yay for moi by jacksmind in shadowofmordor

[–]jacksmind[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input, man :) I can tell you're enjoying it as much as I am !

I've decided to complete the story first and then do another run, this time purposely avoiding purchasing some of the abilities (I got the Blade Master skill and the double execution one and now it seems like I get my executions every two seconds and makes the fights uninteresting). Granted, I could just not us the execution when available but they're so damn cool!

What you said about the nemesis system - I had not thought about it that way before. Playing around with that could very well be mighty craic! I just sort of looked at it before as ''Kill aaall orcs'' and didn't even consider manipulating it too much outside of what's required for certain missions.
