The official Witcher 3 thread

Takealot is getting me nervous, especially considering I took off tomorrow and Wednesday. It would suck if that was all for nothing.

I'll probably get mine after 5 tomorrow. TakeAlot rarely delivers before that where I live.

The big kicker? I've got loadshedding at 6PM tomorrow regardless of what stage we're in. :(

The first two DLC items (Temerian Armour for Geralt and Horse Armour, plus an alternative hair and beard set) will be available when the game launches. Two more DLC items will follow each week. Next week is alternative costumes for Yennefer and Ciri, if I recall correctly.

Launch trailer might be coming later today:

A bunch of people are returning. If you're like me and have the eagle eye :p, you might have spotted a couple Witcher 1 characters in the different review footage. Most of the people in TW2 are also returning.

On a random note, BTGames seems to have their copies available from 7am tomorrow morning ;-)
 
WOW! That trailer.... WOW!!!

The music, the tone... I almost shed a tear.










I did recognise a few of the returning characters though.

Thaler is back! I liked him.


Just making myself some dinner and them I'm gonna get some sleep in before the 1 am unlock. Will download the patch and if it runs on my PC I will play until about 6:30 when I go get my CE. If not, I will just go back to sleep and wait for the CE.

Haha, the man with the plan. :)

Raru let me know that they're delivering my case early tomorrow, so I can upgrade my PC. Hype intensifies.

Yeah, you could see him in the Gamespot footage. I think Shani and Kalkstein will only appear in the expansion that takes place in Oxenfurt.

I hope my bro Iorveth makes a comeback in the base game. I haven't seen him anywhere yet.

Shani and Kalkstein are coming back as well? Awesome!!!

Also hoping Iorveth makes an appearance. Yaevinn would be awesome as well.

Forgot to mention the mountain of meat himself, Letho. So glad I didn't kill him, hope I still have that save for the the PC version.

I didn't kill him either, but I'm going to give him a beatdown for being a chop. :p Dunno how much gameplay you've seen, but the agreement he made with the emperor to rebuild the Viper school doesn't exactly turn out the way he had planned. This is why Witchers shouldn't get involved in politics.

Phillipa is back too. I guess people who only played Roche's path won't know what happened to her. Man, that scene was brutal in TW2. If she's back then it's safe to assume that Saskia will be back too.

To all the PC guys, this is the site where you'll be able to download the Day 1 patch for PC. ;)

Nah, I haven't seen any of that but I expected things wouldn't really go his way in the end. Can't wait to find out for myself. Can't believe the game is almost here. Fuck, I've waited so long for this day to come. :D

That feeling... I know it well. :D

Hopefully Takealot don't screw me over tomorrow. :p

Surely it will auto update via Steam/Galaxy ?

Guess so. If you try and run the .exe in the preload folder, that's where it sends you though. It's handy for the people who bought retail copies, they can download so long while they wait for their copy to arrive.
 
Just woke up and started the download. Here's to hoping my PC runs it.

EDIT: No such luck. Not even starting on my PC. PS4 version in a few hours it is then.
