    The checkpoint system in this game is just dogshit, it’s completely taking me out of the experience. It’s clearly a 10/10 game but whatever idiot decided it would be fun to complete a mission then die then have to redo the mission because there’s no autosaves on mission complete is f***ing insane

    I just went to a mission where I had to beat this guy at gwent, then he got pissed I won and attacked me. I blocked but someone he attacked me anyways and I died, now I’m at the previous mission so I have to go all the way and play the entire game of gwent again and hope I don’t die again randomly

    I can’t trust auto save in games like this, Skyrim, and Fallout.

    I spam the s*** out of manual saves.

    Yeah same but you can’t always manual save, in the situation I was talking about when you get to the mission a cutscene starts, then you play gwent, then there’s combat. You can’t manual save between any of that, so if you die at the combat you have to redo the cutscenes, redo your dialogue choices, and redo the game of gwent just to get back to the combat

    Same thing with the baron lubberkin quest, you can’t manual save at any point so if you die you’re back before you talked with the baron and you gotta grab the baby again and walk through that long sequence all over

    Oof yeah it’s been awhile since I played it, that was annoying. Especially on death march or that gwent tournament

    Yeah I never struggled with the checkpoints before but on ng+ where any random guy in a tavern is lv.68 and kills Geralt in 1 hit suddenly it’s pissing me off lol

    You can set the autosave setting down to every 3 minutes, in the gameplay options, that might help

    Are you noticing any stuttering while playing? When I tired the update on my pro it felt like there was a frame hitch every few seconds. Turned me off of it completely

    New update 5.01 out now fixes stutter and apparently improves the graphics and performance

    You can also turn off bloom which I guess people wanted

    That second picture

    I really need to beat resonant but this is calling my name

    I think bloom was washing out the colors just a tad, the new update allows you to turn it off and it def looks better. Turned depth of field off too.

    The cloaks are indeed on console.

    Now I can begin my 8th playthrough

  • Does it look now better than the next-gen version? That one was perfect to me graphically
