The big mistake I made was that you can't craft an upgrade of alchemy items or amour and weapons without the basic. Then when you have reached they end of the game merchants, herbalists etc don't seem to sell the basic diagrams. For example, I picked up superior and enhanced relict oil but because I never picked up the basic one I was never able to craft it. So my tip is buy/collect as many crafting diagrams as you can early in the game
Your comments about the world being more beautiful in certain lights, and that the town you were in had a beutiful midiveal look was actually very nice for me. I am new to the game and only level 11, and I have been very focused on doing the quests and running through gameplay, but those comments reminded me to actually also enjoy the world I am in. Thank you so much for that! Also thanks for all the very helpful tips! I enjoyed your video a lot :)
Vellen in general is a horror movie.... I love/hate that whole first section of the game. Its such a dark depressing way to start out but it also really keeps you on your toes when your super low level and everything can 1-2 shot you on death march
Meh you don't need to wait. Just get yourself some oils and weapons. Then you'll be fine as long as you're not underlevel. So dm just sucks until you're like level 4
Examine the stats on your equipment, see what it increases, add runestones that add more % to the effects already on your equipment. As for potions, just try stuff you like. Thunderbolt, petris, and swallow feels like a pretty standard setup. Thunderbolt for extra sword damage, petris for extra magical power, and swallow if you need to heal. I also really like the decoction that increases your attack power for every physical attack you land for the duration of the fight. But read the descriptions, see what comes in handy for the way you play the game. It’s all about curating the character to how you want him to operate
It's not a competion, he can play it however he wants. The same goes for elden ring, some people find it fun fighting bosses using katanas and underwear while some just want just want to use flashy magic to overpower the enemies. The point is that most games are meant to be enjoyed however you would like.
When I started this game it said you need alcohol to replenish potions. My dumb ass thought it meant during combat and referring to those food alcohols to make the potions last longer during a fight. I fought the 1st griffin using food alcohols during the fight and this was unnecessarily harder than witcher 2.
Hey man, havent played witcher in years and these videos are great. Saw in another vid you had a role in AC Valhalla? Couldnt find a video but what character did you voice? Love your content
I have my questions if Gourmet is really effective. If you’re doing Death March, you know how to save and how to dodge enemies. And when you use fast travel, it always saves. Yesterday I was playing around with some explosives barrels (using igni and aard) and by mistake I died. 😂. Gourmet is useful only in White Orchard and maybe at beginning of Velen…
Not often mentioned, the higher difficulty you play at, the stronger geralt is. The monsters are also, of course, stronger but if you want to see geralt at his best, play on a higher difficulty!
I just started replying the next Gen version because I'd only ever played the base game on PS4. It's like a new game again with all the dlc & next Gen update
Sadly my entire save profile seems to have been erased after the next gen update. shame for all the work I put into it, but hey. at least this time I can try to speedrun it!
Need to get LVL 60 before starting NG+ but I've done almost everything (currently LVL 55). Really dont wanna start a NG+ save that doesn't get LVL 100 Grandmaster Gear
@LWKGDI‘ve no idea where you get this hate feeling from as I see nothing in any of the posts to suggest that. You appear to be carrying a big chip on your shoulder and reading into things that are and never were intended. Chill Bro.
Ok, Is there any tip for connect the narrative better? I mean, did everything in WO and Velen, then I did most of the quests in Novigrad until the point where an old friend ask you if you're going to sail to Skellige...which I did, but leave like half of important matters for main characters cooking there and because noticed I was over leveling for many skellige quests, and I don't want to go fully into the Skellige main story line too quick to be able to return to finish Novigrad🤔
@@Devon-hw6ih you can fast travel between skellige and novigrad easily so do what you feel like. There is actually a point of no return prompt as you near the end of the main quest line.
You can craft it, yeah. I made my first GM set recently by buying/dismantling for the raw materials and crafting the ingots/plates. Turns out, its a lot cheaper than buying the end product outright
I never played this and still " hate " it. I have tried GOG version, Steam version and even a pirated version i can´t get it to launch. I have 3 year old Legion desktop PC with 16 Gb ram, RTX 2070 8Gb and Intel Core i5 @ 2.80GHz Coffee Lake 14nm Technology CPU. I have tried all suggestions from internet and still i have not succeeded to launch it. It just jumps back to desktop after few seconds after loading. Today i am playing Starfield with my rig on ultra and it works fine. Where is the fault?
It’s edibles, not eatables. One might also say victuals, vittles, grub, chow, foodstuffs etc. Why edibles not eatables? IDK, English is weird. At least we don’t have tu/vous distinction and gender for inanimate objects. Except for boats, and maybe a few other things… sometimes.
I do have a question: what is safe to sell to vendors? My weight has always been an issue for my playthrough. What are your suggestions for decreasing the weight? Thank you
@@dlbarnes depends how much you want to play. if u want to complete everything in the game then yes. For me, it was not worth it. I spent about 100hours doing main quests, side quests and tresaure hunts and i think thats enough for a game like this but some people like to complete everything and then u have to play like 300-400 hours or more
Seems that i cant cast yrden top of enemy , last couple wraiht fights only can cast if wraith is not near. Ist changed or doest been that way always? Its been few years when i last play witcher.
Edibles. Not necessarily eed but like Ed-ables. Or some dude named Ed who is able. Thanks for the help. Other than the mods this was great. On console Edit. We do say gourmay for gourmet in the US. You sound like you’d like to know and I appreciate the English you’re knocking out.
I watched your videos about mods. Sadly the mod autoloot does not work can please send the link or at least the name which one works? Thanks a lot in advance!
I see you love Alchemy but what's the point. I'm currently on 18 level and this game is so easy on deathmarch that I rarely even use swallow. 1 dose of 1 potion is enough. Well maybe it's because I'm cheating. I changed hotkeys so my dodge is on RMB and because it's most important move after attack it's easy game for me.
all worth it for quick casting as a controller user (prefer it on PC as with most games, but I use a controller either way bc it just feels better in combat.)
so in other words. if you dont mod the game ie dont know how to mod, or take advantage of the game from when it came out, this video is almost useless to you

Use Axii on Harpies to make a single one falls asleep on air and drop down to the ground. It's fun.
Use Axii on Aghouls calm them down.
Thank you for liking the game that I've been loving and playing repeatedly since 2017. You just earned another sub.
American here. We definitely pronounce gourmet like the french. I don't think i've ever heard anybody in my entire life pronounce gourmet, gor-met.
Missed tip make sure map is on all I started new game 2 hours in wondering where questions marks had gone 😅
Vellen in general is a horror movie.... I love/hate that whole first section of the game. Its such a dark depressing way to start out but it also really keeps you on your toes when your super low level and everything can 1-2 shot you on death march
My advise. Play on Death March on your 2nd playthrough. The game is so cheeky, youll need to be properly equipped.
Meh you don't need to wait. Just get yourself some oils and weapons. Then you'll be fine as long as you're not underlevel. So dm just sucks until you're like level 4
I get confused with using potions,also assigning the gem things to my weapons. I find it all a bit daunting

Never have I ever heard anybody here in America say “Gor Met”, only “Gourmet” (How it’s intended)
What's the point in playing a game with a load of cheat mods on it 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼
Fun
My thoughts exactly bros not even losing stamina lmao how is that fun it just takes away from the experience
I mean he's just using some QoL mods so I don't think it's that big of a deal
It's not a competion, he can play it however he wants.

That Witcher shirt is the only acceptable Christmas sweater I'd wear 😂
The next Gen makes it seem so easy
I decided to play the game after I finished it a few times and haven't touched it since Blood and Wine. This is a valuable video! Thank you!
I just started replying the next Gen version because I'd only ever played the base game on PS4. It's like a new game again with all the dlc & next Gen update
Thankyou so much for the tips, Diggi!
I love this game! Just started playing in last week

Americans do not say Gor-met lol. We say Gor-may, as intended.
Thanks! 🙏🏻😊 Gourmet would be intended by the French though ☺️
Yes! That is what I'm saying--I've never heard another American say gormeT, but rather the phonetical gormay lol@@frankyboy13
Just order Burger and Fries. It‘s far easier to remember. Touché 😂
@@travellingman9031 is that pronounced Tou-chet?
😂🤣😂🤣

Thanks for the tips. Just started this game yesterday.
many locked doors,how do you unlock those doors?
Can't unlock ever unless it says, "requires key"
I'm gonna be honest I didn't know you could meditate and refill potions. I would drop my swallow and re make it. Is my first playthrough
Idk I just got lost on how many mods there are
I have no sign post in Crows Pearch I only have the 1 at the bridge. Weird
You get it after you finish the Baron quest
i play ng+ in dm with pure sign build griffin set should i use conductor of magic or magic sensibilities
Freezing cold, its fun
No

Hi Franky Boy.
Just a question : Why your 60 FPS looks like 120 FPS ??? It's incredible !
Do you have nvidia or amd graphic card ?
Happy to hear that :) I have the 4080 by NVIDIA:)
@@frankyboy13 Oh ok. I also have the same GC but i have the impression that my 60FPS is not the same that yours !
@@frankyboy13 By the way, i love your videos on the witcher 3 ;) Keep it up !

Countries too
@@Cunnysmythe And cars, airplanes, bodies of water, etc. That's why I just said "and maybe a few other things... sometimes."
@@6236003 Wouldn't have thought of those in the same sense, but I take your point
Bruh I didn’t even know you could LOOT MONSTER NESTS! I’ve been destroying them and moving on with exploration -.-
you using zero weight? is that mod?
Hi, where did you download the zero weight mod?
Nexusmods 🙏🏻
@@frankyboy13 I've looked at nexus mods and only saw zero weight for alchemy something. Is that the same thing?
I do have a question: what is safe to sell to vendors? My weight has always been an issue for my playthrough. What are your suggestions for decreasing the weight? Thank you
sell all hides dont sell crafting materials for amour and decoctions and potions sell all your useless swords that sit there and armor aswell
@@swivft60 Okay, hides can be sold, but all crafting I should keep? Thank you
@@swivft60Well, here is another question: should you complete all the question marks in each area? I've played the game, but I feel I rush through it.
@@dlbarnes depends how much you want to play. if u want to complete everything in the game then yes. For me, it was not worth it. I spent about 100hours doing main quests, side quests and tresaure hunts and i think thats enough for a game like this but some people like to complete everything and then u have to play like 300-400 hours or more
if you play on pc, you could install the "Over 9000" mod, wich gives you 9000 carryweight
I don’t like Heart of Stone too. It seems too much for my taste. The only reason I do that is because of the sunglasses… 😎
I love Germans ……love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤
Seems that i cant cast yrden top of enemy , last couple wraiht fights only can cast if wraith is not near. Ist changed or doest been that way always? Its been few years when i last play witcher.
You can place it, you’re probably just being interrupted. Wraiths can be pretty pesky with their fast movement and attacks.
has weapons and armor in inventory, doesn't have any weight....
Edibles. Not necessarily eed but like Ed-ables. Or some dude named Ed who is able. Thanks for the help. Other than the mods this was great. On console
Edit. We do say gourmay for gourmet in the US. You sound like you’d like to know and I appreciate the English you’re knocking out.
Thankyou so much 🙏🏻 yes I really appreciate your explanation on the pronounciation!
Even more specifically it’s Ed-uh-bulls
I watched your videos about mods. Sadly the mod autoloot does not work can please send the link or at least the name which one works? Thanks a lot in advance!
right now, I am struggling to find one aswell :( Will try my best
@@FragNartYT but in your last video it did work? Schöne Weihnachten! :)
Did you know you must turn it on in game settings, mods, autoloot.
There is a mod to become a vampire, please try it
I don’t know of anyone in the US that says gourmet any differently than you do unless they are trying to be funny.
Awesome, new guides you got a new sub
Thanks mate ☺️☺️
wtf is blue hour?
Mid day/noon
Right before sunrise. The perfect coffee time.
I paid for my own game so I'll make all the mistakes I want to 😆
Edible is a word. Don’t worry. 😂
He said eatable
I see you love Alchemy but what's the point. I'm currently on 18 level and this game is so easy on deathmarch that I rarely even use swallow.
1 dose of 1 potion is enough. Well maybe it's because I'm cheating. I changed hotkeys so my dodge is on RMB and because it's most important move after attack it's easy game for me.
edibles is the word bro!
Tip #1
Watch the DemonPhoenix death March guide and follow along
End of list haha
Next gen update erases so much of this now.
FYI. Most Americans know how to pronounce ‘gourmet’. It’s a pretty common word.
You beat me to it! Heightened is "high - tend". Edibles is "ed uh bullz". Phonetics.
192 hours, and cd projekt red update erases everything. I will never buy another game from these folks.
I feel your pain brother. But there is something special about starting a new game as a noob.
Lmao. It happens. Understand it’s a game. They make fantastic games and sometimes mistakes happen
Cry me a river
😂

I guess you meant well but I quickly stopped watching because of all the (necessary) spoilers. Thanks anyway
The game has almost 10 years so I don't think new video should be too concerned about spoilers
This video became irrelevant to me the moment you started using mods
Lol
No, Americans do not say “Gor-met” 💀
Your an dpsht if you think Americans pronounce gormet like that.
Most of these are more like tricks not tips 😂 😂 😂
Mods. So many mods....
They are called CHEATS.
