All seems so simple now but I remember being completely overwhelmed by this game to the point I left it alone for months at a time until I finally got stuck in...then, it became my favourite game and still is to this day.
100% same
You literally just described my character arc with this game the last 6 months. It was so overwhelming at first. Fast forward 6 months I got like 10 mods and absolutely hooked.
Man I felt the same way its so deep I couldn't handle it lol but now I wanna take a 2nd crack at it lol
I hope this will go the sane way for me. Bought it last July and now a year later I've played 3 hours
@@andythedrummer9642 my recommendation is just focus on the combat/magic. Don't even worth about potions or alchemy or anything like that. It's just too much to take in straight away. Eventually once you're comfortable with the rest of the game you'll naturally start to get curious.
Just wanted to add to what you mentioned:
- Every Sign has a use, and some aren't obvious. Axii (mind spell) can be cast on all horse to calm them. Wild and tamed (those used by bandits and soldiers) who have Axii cast on them can be ridden instead of Roach. The horse will stop trying to kick you too.
Axii can be upgraded to cancel enemy attacks when cast, then stuns them.
Yrden is very useful for dealing with shield bearing enemies. It will allow you to flank or rear strike easily.
While Igni looks good, it has very short range, and some enemies will ignore getting hit by it, letting them get an easy hit on you. Aard is a much safer option with the upgraded range. If strong enough, Aard will 'stun' some human and humanoid enemies, allowing for an instant kill finisher
- Don't take the bestiary as gospel. While it does tell you the obvious weaknesses, it doesn't cover tactics well. Take Foglets for example. Aard on the real Foglet will knock it out of stealth and take out it's copies. A tip the game may give you (the tips are a bit random) is that Axii can be cast on an Alghoul to force it retract it's spines. Experiment and try out different methods yourself
- Each Witcher armor set has a story behind it. If you decide to hunt for a set, do it in full. They are worthwhile stories that shed light on the attitudes towards Witcher's
- When you start the game in White Orchard, it is highly recommended that you find the diagrams for the Viper steel and silver swords. These are a pair of Level 2 swords that can easily last Geralt until Level 10, and can even take on up to Level 20 missions very early in the game. You'll need to talk to the Nilfguaardian Quatermaster at the northern outpost to craft them
- One of the first upgrade you should invest in is the School of the Griffin or Cat found in the top right of the General abilities tab. It provides a decent boost to a stat very early into the game
- Gold will be an constant issue early in the game. An easy source of gold are weapon runestone's. Keep things simple and hold onto the Attack and Sign improvement runes, then sell the rest. You'll make hundreds easily, and you will always find more out in the world. Also on the topic of runestone's and glyph's. They use the same upgrade system as Witcher sets and potions. You can buy diagrams from herbalists and blacksmiths that allow you to craft glyphs, and each of their improved versions
- Swimming is an activity you'll engage in frequently. The hold-to-ascend/descend buttons are often non-responsive. It is easier to direct Geralt by moving the camera
- This one maybe be subjective (or a heretical to some) but Witcher 3 can be a long game that will burn some players out. It happened to me the a few times in my early playthroughs. A solution I found was to not play Gwent, and focus on playing only the game
- Lastly. This was a command I cannot recall the game highlighting. If a mission has multiple objectives, you can rotate between those objectives (on PS4 it is with the R3 button). This is helpful in the case of Witcher sets, as the 'search for diagrams' is selected by default, even though you know where other parts are at
Edit: Had to make changes to my post after the next-gen update that dropped last week. Axii no longer works on flying enemies as it use to. Added 3 new points instead
Fantastic tips to go by!
I wish the best things for you in life for these tips
You’re the man
Wow, great insights. I just purchased the game on sale, and before I start day one, I wanted to do a little research as I hate aimlessly wandering around getting killed or grinding all day. Purchased for Playstation 5. This game seems overly complicated after watching this video. I'm not sure I want to play it now, lol
Same, it was this or Alien: Isolation, which I've played, never played Witcher, seems like it's gonna be worth it!
I'm not a begginer, i have tons of hours in this masterpiece, but i love watching those type of video.
Same, I've beaten the entire game, dlc included, about 6 or so times
Starting my fourth playthrough. Lol Still the goat.
Ikr
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it
No matter how many hours you have logged into this game there’s always something you could have missed.
It’s now 2024 and I am one of those 5 people
Me too. Started the game again recently
This video is fantastic for beginners like myself. I was so overwhelmed just trying to figure out basic things. After several hours of gameplay, I felt like I had a somewhat ok understanding of how to play. After watching this, I feel like I'll be much better prepared for what this game has to offer. Outstanding work!
Glad you enjoyed the guide! Thanks for watching.
I just picked this up on sale for the Playstation 5, and I agree I haven't started it yet, and it looks overly complicated and overwhelming.
@@shanew7361 the nice thing is you can sort of get away with spamming attack in the early game
@standyke542 I've already finished the game and have almost 200k gold lol
just now bought the complete edition. never played before. cheers
This is one of the best tips video. Straight to the point and informative. Great job! I recommend.
Thanks for the help, just now starting Witcher 3 after years of putting it off and after the next gen upgrade, it’s a little overwhelming at first even for me coming from Skyrim but this helped
I actually needed this, thx!
When I played the first time, I discovered a lot of things almost when I was about to finish the game so I had a difficult times sometimes, so for the New Game+ I really enjoyed and played more hours than the first times.
This guide video it's very complete. 💙
Thank you for watching!
@@LastKnownMeal Nes jebat :P
Perfect timing for my first PC playthrough of this beauty. The first ever playthrough I didn't know my potions replenished, and just discarded them and remade them lol
Yes it's a beautiful game hope you enjoy it ✨ I recommend playing on the harder difficulties and obtaining Witcher gear early on (green armor). ✨
@@Bubbletea_69I've done countless playthroughs, but it's my first on PC. Sorry for the confusion lol
Lol yea it's crazy
This overwhelmed me back in 2015. After talking with a friend i dove back in and have loved it for years. Developed my own way of doing certain things but love seeing other players methods.
This was SO helpful! Thank you
I completely bought this game on a whim; I knew absolutely nothing about the Witcher but I love RPGs so I bought it when it came out anyway. I’ve played the main story, both dlcs, and am still finding stuff to do. I had it uninstalled forever but just recently reinstalled it and am just exploring all the points of interest I have left
One piece of advice I have with the witcher gear, the Enhanced Cat School Gear quest is bugged, and it will show as complete even when you haven't found all the pieces, so if you wanna find the whole set you need to use a guide to see all the locations, as the quest only shows you about half of them
Ty for sharing because I got the complete collection for my switch and loving this game
I’m a beginner that somehow swam to Novigrad at level 4 and am so lost. 🤣
Excellent video. Nice and thorough breakdown. This is my first play through and I’m only 5 or so hours in. Not gonna lie, when the video got to the skills, then the mutagens, and then the synapses.. 🤯 not going to give up though. I can see the potential and so far, I’m having tons of fun feeling like a bad ass and taking it in stride. This game is awesome and I know I will definitely get my moneys worth out of it. Thanks for the help!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching
you really dont need to worry about the skills, armor, weapons and mutagens at all even on death march the game can be finished without a focussed build
dont stress it at all, you will learn as you play naturally or just look up a little bit at a time
Thank you for this video, I just strated Witcher after not gaming for 20 years, last game I finished was Ape Escape on PS1, so as you can imagine, a pretty big jump in complexity, I was completely lost with all the menus and what they meant
Thanks for watching!
Ape escape, such memories with the game 🐵
I downloaded this again yesterday. I beat it a few years ago but i am burned out with souls games. Started dark souls3 and was like. F U dark souls 3! You are no fun and then I remembered the witcher 3 and the fun I had.
I'm one of those 5 people who haven't played the game. Started it yesterday and I love it. Appreciate the all the info thanks
Thanks for watching!
Great game, not easy to begin with because you have to give it some patience. Worth starting in 2022 if you like depth and are able to appreciate the hard work of the developers. Thanks for the video.
Yeah deff not a game you pick up and go lol i put it down like 4 times but i kept coming back
@bengalboypaco3140 I just picked up the game on PS5, and jt looks overly complicated and complicated. I haven't started it, yet I'm afraid too, 😂
About to play for the first time! Thank you
Thanks dude. I can start playing now I don't think I'm going to look any further. Just the right amount of information lol
Wow really nicely done, but fun to watch since i have over 2000hrs played. Really good to see this up for those who have never played! Just a note Charachter page the center 4 boxes and cirlcle only expands from Blood and wine quest.
I'm new. This was very informative. Thank you. I liked and subscribed.
Thank you sir. Just started my second play through. Such a great game.
great video, I'm on lvl 31 1st play through... still useful. grats.
Great video. Thanks for making it.
Wish I’d had this waaaaaaay back when I first played. 10/10 mate.
Potions and concoction section really helped a lot, didn't know I use materials just once, already lvl 20 and still treasuring my Potions
Very helpful, thanks!
I've played this game 3/4 times now but I still love watching videos like this. Thank you for this, great video! 😁
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
same here also with rdr2 i just wish i could erase this from memory and play it again
Just started my second play through. Beat it during covid lock downs. Loved it. Loving it all over again.
Thanks, yes, I'm one of the 5 people who haven't played this game, lol. I played the first Witcher back in 2008 and loved it. Just purchased this one on Steam for $10, couldn't resist. Got about an hour in and am a bit overwhelmed. Videos like this are helping me a ton! So far, it's been very fun.
What's funny is that I use decoctions until I reach 96% toxicity, but one of them replenishes health every time I spend stamina and another every time I cause damage so the loss of health is compensated for to the point I have a stamina/dps based swallow potion active at all times.
Great video thank you!😊
Thank you just getting into this game
Thanks! Just got into the witcher 3. Got it for ps5. Its alot so your video helped out alot.
The first time I played this game, it scared me quite a bit. And just starting the tutorial, it is a game that challenges you with its enormous content.
My favorite game...
That last but about Moonblade saved me. I'm about 3 days new to the game and accidentally dismantled my silver sword for crafting items and panicked. Thank you!
I’m currently using the Bear/Ursine Grandmaster Armor with Levity Enchantment, that turns heavy armor into light armor. It’s a great buff for a sword attack build.
I just bought the game a few minutes ago (it's not even done downloading yet), but I was told to check it out and love skyrim/fallout so I hope this becomes another favorite!
I've had this game for 2 years and never touched it, but this is very easy to follow so I might actually try it soon
I just started this game a couple days ago so this is a very useful guide for me
Glad it helped
I just started playing The Witcher today and i’m having a blast, this video has been very helpful :)
Thanks for watching!
Just bought the game today, thanks for the video!
Watching this video because going to start this game for the first time (laugh it out). I started this game few years ago but like someone commented, got too over whelmed by it, and left it! Now all updated hoping to get into it slow and steady !
Thanks for the help, man
Thanks for watching!
Great stuff!
Now your just getting me excited for the Raytracing patch...cheers!
I am ridiculously excited to (finally) play Witcher 3. I bought the game about a week ago and it's supposed to arrive tomorrow. All the more excited now because of this video!
hey, if you did start the game, hope you enjoyed it :)
Keep with it, even if you didn't like it at first
@@DylanVolksVictim any tips for a person who just can't seem to get into the game??
I wish I could play this game for the first time again!!! Take your time & enjoy!!
@@z.s.n. sorry I didn't see this until today, i guess the tip would be depend on what you don't like about it. I was kind of overwhelmed by everything I think. I just remembered buying it, playing it for a couple days and not enjoying it and half year later I decided to just push my way thru and now it's one of my favorite games
I'm going to play threw this game for the 1st when the next gen update is out this week , thanks for the great vid
Tks man, i made a new pc in 2016 to play witcher 3; in the end i never played more than 3 hours. Now i upgraded to a new pc 7 years later and i installed this masterpiece; i went on and tought, why was i so crazy to not stick with it; this and elden ring are such an amazing piece of art games!
Guess its cool to come to the party later than never afterall!
Have fun everyone!
Thank you. I was initially going to wait till the next gen patch to start Witcher 3 on my xbox but since that was delayed till later this year, i think i might jsut platy the base version soon.
I already played it on ps4 but that was so long ago that i did need a refresher.
Thanks, just started playing after watching the Netflix show. This helps!
thank you for a very good info :)
Thanks for making this! I'm enjoying the game so far but 12 hours in and still don't know what's going on lol
Just started this game and I can't believe how good it is..
thank you I have played but never really knew what I was doing
After not playing in over a year I definitely need this
Just downloaded on PS5, will be my first time playing this. Thanks
Haven’t started this yet but just installed, thanks for the bideo
Thank you!!
forgot this video completely! very useful atm
Brand new player here, thanks for this sir!
I've had Witcher 3 on my "to play" list for YEARS. Just getting to it in 2023 :) Thanks for this.
You're in for a treat - enjoy :)
Just got the game today been watching all these videos
Me, who was over 500 hours in this game and still enjoys this video! :D
appreciate the video, bro! Just got a steam deck and witcher 3 yesterday
Thanks for watching!
You should make Guides for each of the games you play, It would really come in handy for beginners
I actually just started playing for the first time yesterday
You are doing yourself a favor!
I have this game like last February, but up until now, i play this game probably 8 hour total. And here i am to actually understand this game.
i must say i am one of the 5 people he mentioned during the intro
I've finished this game 7 times but I'm still gonna watch it lmao
Just started playing this game recently and really like it best game I have played
I kind of hate it when it feels like I need to study how to actually play a game, the Witcher seems pretty bad in this regard..
You don't have to do anything. Watching this video isn't mandatory. You can go in blind. Nobody is forcing you to do anything. 😅
Literally protective shield is bis. Don’t even need to use your ability points lol. Game is super fun and easy. Let’s you play how you want. You seem very very very casual. Play on story mode.
It’s because you don’t appreciate things in life. You just want to masterbate and then do it all over again the next day.
Mortal Kombat is worse these days. They even have a long guide in game to help learn. Like a several hours long study guide!
@@ImARealHumanPerson That's not the point smartass
You kinda have to do your research and watch some videos before starting a game like this
They throw an insane amount of infos into your face
I did this with cyberpunk and now the witcher
And the witcher is kinda worse in this regard
Rolling have two uses - when attack on you is wide and you are not good with timing dodge (if you will time dodge too soon you will get hit while rolling out place you in safe spot for a while; still - you better get gut) and also when you want to move quicker while in a combat mode.
This play through I’m only wearing witcher armor or if there is just some really cool looking set that gives good stats as well.
Just got the GOTY edition. Definitely looking forward to giving this game a go 😊
It's insane how many people I have seen leaving this game for a long time shortly after giving it a try on their first playthrough for whatever reason. In my case, back in 2019, I did not like the graphics and the combat. 4 years later, yesterday, I completely fell in love with it lol
I'm one of those five and recently started (on Nintendo Switch) 🙏
I'll start today :D
Just got this game, have to admit its the first Witcher game I have played (although I have read 3 of the books). There is a lot to get your head around initially in the game, but the more I play I the more I understand why everyone rates it so highly
thanks :)
I just the game for 8.99 on the PlayStation store so I’m just starting glad I found this video
0:10 hey there. it feel good to be recognized xD
It’s 10.00 now in the Xbox stor the goty edition with the new free next gen update this is going be great !!
it’s me, one of five people yet to play this
I just started this week, after Bethesda exploded my 87th level Skyrim playthrough with their mods/CC merger. This was on my list, time for something fresh. This video is helping me adjust. :)
Thanks
I will play this for the first time when next gen update comes out
when the upgrade comes I will be playing this game for the first time I don't like collecting stuff
I’m playing The Witcher for the first time.. thank you
Thank you for watching!
I had the game for years now. I only play apex so I’m trying it again. I deleted all my save data and I’m going in fresh thank you for the video.
I first tried this out on PC a few years ago, but being the impatient guy I am (or was rather) I gave up and got a refund, but recently, I decided that I'd try and have more patience, picked this up for my Switch OLED, and I'm absolutely loving this game, so much 💯
I bought this for the Switch some time ago, but am just getting around to playing it.
This guy's voice sounds like he could legit be a character within the game! Lol. I dig it. Seriously one of the few areas where this game could use improvement is that it has excellent voice acting but geez louise it recycles the same voice actor for like every other NPC 😑 CDProjektRed oughta hit this guy up for voice work on Witcher 4 and Witcher 1 remake 😂 and of course thanks for all the helpful tips too! I've put in almost 350 hours into the game and I still feel like there's so much for me to learn and utilize. Especially since I take years between playthroughs. So anyway I really appreciate all the extra tips and advice! Kudos man 🙌
I'm currently watching Season 2, and all I can think of is how awesome and fun the show is, how fond I am of the characters, and how much I want to replay the game! :D Top 5 best games for all time for me!
💀
The series is trash. Story and characters are too different from the books
Show sucks so hard , Netflix messes all these shows up. Look what they did with cowboy bebop…
Very helpful video, thanks! Bought the GoTY edition for dirt cheap a while back and waited for the current gen upgrade. As others have mentioned it's quite overwhelming at the beginning with so many options and confusing elements but I'm slowly getting to grips with it.
One question I have though; how on earth have you got nearly 20 MILLION crowns???
Thanks for watching! When it comes to money, this was added through console command being a test save for videos
@LastKnownMeal - Aah right! I'm on Xbox so no such options but may be for the best.
Cheers.
I played it like 8 times from begining till end,once next gen comes i will play it again
Hey it's 4 people now.
Thanks for this I'm coming over from a 10 year Skyrim and Terraria binge.
