>Roach is not being fixed

Yessir. Roach will be just as fun

Bro, I’m really digging the new point form style you’ve been using in your posts. It makes everything flow so much better and keeps all the information really organized and easy to follow. I love it, keep it up! Also just saw you hit 1,300! Congrats bro, well deserved!

Thanks a lot bro. I really appreciate your kind words. I try my best to provide the information to the best of my abilities. Glad to see that it's working well. :)

Have u heard anything about new game plus unlimited options? Or will we remain at 1 ng+?

Nothing about that yet. I'll post about it if I find anything.

As a Nioh, DMC, GoW, Souls games enjoyer I've tried this game for 5 years and quit every time cuz of combat... can't wait to try again!!!

I hope you have fun again.

The update looks real good, hope it stick this time.

all welcome changes cant wait to get back into the game i kinda shelved it for a while waiting for exactlt this type of update

Next month 🗿🫡

Bro can you clear my doubts regarding the mods implementation in the Remaster. Like if they are now part of the base game or are they just mods available for the console players and we have to go and download these mods? Also if they are seprate and needs to be downloaded, do they disable trophies? 🤔

I didn't watch the mods segment in great detail, but all I know is that you can use any mod on any console. Provided the hardware can handle it. For example Switch 2 won't be able to. I'll check it again and let you know.

@squarednation_ 👀

great summaries, watch them gonna complain again with the combat later

Thanks a lot brother 🫡 and yes some people never stop 😂

Do you know if the current PS5 trophy list for The Witcher 3 will be the same one for the remaster?

Songs of the Past expansion will add new trophies. Remaster should have the same ones in my opinion.

Yeah, I was kind of hoping for a separate trophy list. Maybe with SotP they’ll have a Complete Edition like before.

I'll add the info if I come across it

Unironically fixing Roach would be a massive. Her bugs are so iconic that it would be such a shame if new players don't get to experience them.

Have the markers around Skellige been removed?

No. I don't think so.

The skill system has always been about the amount of points spent?

Maybe I misheard. They said "ability system."

Have you heard if its going to have a separate achievement/trophy list?

Not for the remastered edition I think. Songs of the Past will have new trophies

Thanks so much for this analysis. Do you know if the character designs themselves have been altered? Cheers

No. I don't think character designs have been altered. And you're welcome :)

I've probably commented on a hundred different posts to no avail.. Will this game replace the original in my library? I have saves that are incredibly sentimental and if it all gets migrated, I don't know how I'd feel about that.

May have been answered but is a new play required or can we jump in on existing saves? Started a new run in prep for the dlc a couple months back and don’t wanna abandon it

"🔸Geralt will follow the enemies to a certain distance" He moves automatically towards them? Why? Shouldn't it be player agency that makes that choice.

Not automatically but he will reduce the gap more efficiently.

Thanks for clarifying

You're welcome :)

Looks like good enough changes. As long as your sword doesn't randomly stop making noise in some fights, that was the most annoying bug.

>you can mound herbs while mounted HOLY BASED

Roach is not being "fixed" they listened.

Will my saves carry over?

From other platforms? Yes. Should work for old saves on the same platform as well

Specifically just meant for the upgrade on Ps5. Thank you for letting me know! I just didnt want to lose all my mastercrafted Witcher sets

If I find more information, I'll let you know :)

Will our saves from the vanilla Witcher 3 transfer over

In the trailer it says combat being overhauled

Can youu ask the team maybe to change xp and quests so they level with your character so they scale and give you more xp and money based on your level there’s a lot to buy in this game including blueprints and recipes Witcher contracts should pay a lot for a specialist

the only problem with roach was him stopping every second when there is an obstacle, we didnt need roach to avoid trees by himself

"Roach is not being "fixed" meaning we'll still get Roach on the roofs

but can we remap controls on controller?

Were there any changes to Crossbow? Cause that thing needs a buff (unless it did get one and I just didn't played since than).

Nope. No major changes. Probably the targeting will be a bit better.

What about ennemies AI ?

What do you mean?

Is it improved ?

The enemy's attack patterns have been changed/added. No idea if it's improved

This is Witcher 3 as is right now with the Halk Hogan HD Texture mod...all you do is download the file from Nexus and drag and drop the .pak files into the ~mods folder.

The combat looks the same, I guess the feeling would be different, because literally there's zero change in the clips

Yes. They said that it won't be a overhaul.

"Combat not overhauled, targeting improved, skills unlock faster" is the honest version of a curriculum refresh: same case you've done for 11 years, better ergonomics and fewer wasted steps. Free, too. I'll take that between lists over a 27-minute trailer I still can't operate.

That’s why it’s free 💀
