    In my defense it at least made sense that Wizards took the license back so they could do something with it, instead of the absolutely nothing they’ve ACTUALLY done

    Wait, is the thing that's been missing from making a working 3D Sonic formula just a grappling hook?

    well he had big stretchy arms that were basically grappling hooks in sonic unleashed and that game was hot garbage so...no, not really

    sure, but also, they had done nothing with it for like fifteen years before they lent it to FFG, they're happy to not make money from their properties as long as they aren't spending any money on not making any money

    anyway I suspect the situation was a bit more complicated than license negotiations typically are, since at the end of the day FFG is actually one of WotC's competitors

    the mistake in unleashed was using the stretchy arms for bad brawler combat and extremely slow platforming instead of fun physics-based high speed traversal

    They are doing something with it - they are taking away the revenue from an increasingly large competitor in the same product space as all of their products.

    Karl's Witcher 3 update

    I completed Hearts of Stone.
    fuck you O'Dimm you wish master fuck. Beat you at your own game and now you lost two souls.

    Now I'm in "not France/italy" for Blood and Wine. And of course it's all about vampires.

    I've only been here a few hours and I've got shit loads of quests to do.

    Which grand master Witcher school set should I go for? I'm mainly swords with a smattering of signs (mainly Quen). I enjoy whirling around murdering folk.

    I'm not sure that's an accurate description of FFG anymore

    all of their card games have shit the bed and they haven't put out a new board game since...last year, I think

    not that it didn't make sense for WotC to pull the license, it was always kind of a weird situation



    anyway I miss netrunner, the card game so good it made me like other card games

    My GOTY is absolutely Hades since I just checked and, yes, 360+ hours does indicate some devotion. Official release in 2020 counts as far as my lists are concerned.

    It's brilliant little touches have been described elsewhere. The official thread is full of justified praise. Voice talent for days. Primo soundtrack. A protagonist that is accepting of EVE-RY-THING and EVE-RY-ONE and strives to improve anything that can be improved for anyone, friend or enemy alike, because Fuck Your Rules, Dad. Yeah, it's pretty fun seeing others dive into it.

    They also made a game where every single character can get it. It's honestly amazing. Got a kink? Hades has you covered.

    eeeh hades has a lot of conventionally attractive people, but statements like "it's got something for everyone" are a bit extreme when it doesn't, for example, have "i want to see someone who looks like me and I have a BMI over 22"

    I’m 5 hours into Heaven’s Vault and really enjoying this game. The translation puzzles are fun, though the game often gives you answers when it doesn’t quite feel like you’ve developed enough context to guess the meaning. I don’t mind, though; the story has me hooked and traveling in game is a mood setter.

    I couldn't do it.
    Fuck O'Dimm, but fuck Everec as well, he doesn't deserve a happy ending. When that decision came up I felt so averse to helping either of them I actually alt-tabbed out to check how to give the middle finger to both of them. Turns out, you can't.
    I deliberated for a while but in the I couldn't do it. The thought of having either of these fuckers feel thankful towards me and that I'd have gifts from one of them was too much and neither option felt like something Geralt would do. I loaded a previous save and went somewhere else. Played though all of Blood and Wine with that stupid mark on Geralt's face because I'd rather have that then the alternative.
    They are still out there in that ruin. Waiting for Geralt to do something he'll never do. Both are immortal so they'll just stand around there doing nothing, slowly going insane until the heat death of the universe ends their suffering. They deserve nothing less.

    I slightly disagree here.
    Everec got fucked by his curse. It (and this is very on the nose) turned his heart to stone. It turns out that if you're completely devoid of emotion, your marriage fails. If you don't feel....anything your entire moral compass goes out the window. At least now he can make an attempt to be good.

    My only regret is that I don't get to kill O'Dimm.

    Yeah, of the two, redemption is only really possible for one; my Geralt gave him a hand not because Everec deserved it, but because it wasn't beyond his imagination that one day he himself will be the one beyond the moral event horizon and needing someone to haul him back.

    I spoiled myself on what happens if you let O'Dimm get what he wants.
    If you chose the Ciri info option it's basically a step-by-step instruction on how to guide Ciri into becoming the Empress.


    But here's the thing. The Hearts of Stone DLC is all level 30ish stuff. How the fuck are you doing ANY of this before the main questline is done.

    EDIT: Also yes @Brovid Hasselsmof you are correct. O'Dimm can go fuck himself.

    It's been long and I barely remember the bits that formed my opinion on Olgierd von Everec. But from what I remember and rereading some stuff on the wiki he
    was a murderous, thieving douchebag long before his heart turned to stone. You don't get a reputation that makes average people crap their pants at the mere sound of your name by being a good samaritan. He also chose to sacrifice his brother's life to get his wish before his heart turned to stone.
    So I disagree that it was the curse that fucked him over. It was him being a power hungry, egoistical asshole that fucked over not just himself but hundreds if not thousands of people that had the misfortune of meeting him before and after meeting O'Dimm.
    Was my Geralt supposed to go the path were the most likely positive outcome is that the mass murderer finally gets to feel joy again when he gathers the next troup of rich, socipathic fucks to go terrorising the locals to get their thrills? No, thanks.

    But even with all that if the game had given me the option to throw his stupid gifts into his face, tell him fuck off, and that if he ever so much as harmed a hair on a peasants head I'd find him and chop his head off... I'd might have helped him. But as is both of them can go rot in hell.

    Olgierd von Everec seemed
    very repentant at the end and swears off his old life. I just have to assume he does it.

    Double fucking O'Dimm is the primary objective here.

    The only regret is I don't get to take O'Dimm's head but I get the impression he might actually be the Witcher Universe's equivalent of Satan

    yeah O'Dimm is
    probably even worse than satan. more like an eldritch sort of trickster god, but more evil. he's probably by far the most powerful being in all of the witcher games, and the only thing that makes him "beatable" is that he seems to hold himself to his own word and contract.

    I have to give credit to Hearts Of Stone's writing because it really slow burned O'Dimm's sheer
    malelavonce. At first, I was just suspicious of him (I thought he was a dickhead mage) but as the DLC progressed I actually had physical reactions of dread and loathing when he turned up.

    Oh fucking christ it's him again. What horrible thing is about to happen now.

    Yeah, when your choice at the end of Hearts of Stone is between
    a roguish piece of shit who was bad to his wife because he got monkey-pawed, and The Literal Devil, I don't think the choice is too hard for Geralt

    He's a humanist at heart, and even if Everec isn't a good person, there's a difference between a bad person and, again, The Literal Devil. Best not to let that guy have the things he wants, generally

    Yes just in my opinion the most Geralt-y decision is to
    give both of them the middle finger and to do his best to make sure both of the two assholes get what their comeuppance.
