You can twist it and turn it as you like. Respec option in any game (except MMOs where sometimes the devs change entire classes and it's only fair you are given a chance to respec if your gameplay changes through no fault of your own) is retard casual gamer crap for n00bs who can't play to rectify their dumbass decisions.

It also makes zero sense from a roleplaying perspective. It takes time to develop your character. Everything is a (slow) learning process for your character. To be able to instantly unlearn everything and relearn some completely different shit is immersion breaking and simply outright stupid. It takes you out of the game, it destroys any sense of consistency and persistence and it completely waters down your (level-up) choices since the consequences are zilch if you can simply respec at any time. Fuck this casual MMO crap.

Do you have some sort of brain damage?

Trust me, I think he does. It's only because I never put people on ignore because everyone here has their moments of dumb shit.. otherwise he would have been the first. Every of his fucking comments is the same measure of stupidity as his quote above.

Respeccing isn't about "hey, lets try something else!" but it's there because people can misinterpret a skill description, simply misclick or realize their chosen skillpath really didn't end up to be their thing. In the end, it's about having fun. Fun > realism.

Not to worry; nor has he.

Also the game doesn't suck, its got many great parts done well, however the actual component in which a person interacts with the game or actually plays the game is extremly bad.

Sorry you're not allowed to have an opinion, you have to post 'facts' only. Facts can be anything that you like and other people have to agree because you're special.

But hey, to be fair to the peanut gallery internet defense brigade, have you played the game? What interaction are you actually speaking of? How about some detail so that other people can't just say you're a troll?

CDPR have completely fallen to the dark side

I can't believe anyone would complain about a respec option, just don't use it if it bugs you. I don't have time to play this game 3 times to get the full experience so I will respec and laugh at you for caring.

Witcher 2 had a respec in a quest line IIRC. You are the worst kind of troll

Respectfully, this is something that's gone on for a long time now. Remember PC Gamers review of Doom 3?

I see nothing new here. It's the same reason so many folks ignore ""respectable/big" media sites", as they're no longer viewed as trustworthy, and instead prefer to hear from their peers. Peers that, in the majority of cases (based on posts here), seem very happy with the game (legal disclaimer: I have not played the game).

"This game sucks"

Humanity in a nutshell right there folks. Nothing to see here, no reason to log into gaming websites anymore. Le sigh. Back to actually playing the game. Because games... are better than people.

Neither is the case, however before the game even was released "respectable/big" media sites that do reviews gave it perfect scores... something that is simply way wrong to do because its clearly not 10/10 flawless game as many sites stated.

Nor are you.

I'm going to accept some insecure bullied kids opinion about me, that's going to happen.

My point, and one particularly hard to grasp for Redmask somehow, is that there's subjective opinions and objective facts


I dunno, people are complaining mostly about the controls and the inventory system. Then there's people who disagree, like myself. I can play this game perfectly fine without any trouble controlling and fighting with Geralt.

I don't know why you picked my name there. You're the one confusing subjective opinions with facts. No one said the inventory system was broken, that would be factually incorrect. People have registered specific complaints about it, that's an opinion. See the difference? Same thing with the combat. I find the combat really bland but I like the game, oh no you can't put me in a box so you better go on the offensive now! I have no problem accommodating a wide variety of opinions on this game, it doesn't bother me in the slightest because I'm not some insecure child. If someone hates the game irrationally then whatever, their fucking loss.

The irony is that none of the voracious defenders bother to actually talk about the game, they want the internet sparring and just don't want to admit it.

No idea why you misquoted me, there. Truly fucking cheap. In my original message it's very clear I know the difference between opinion and fact, and if you truly think I don't based on my comment.. then your cognitive reading skill is lacking on you and you should get some rest, drink less or see someone.

Also it should be said again and by someone else how horribly hypocritical you're acting. Everybody here talked more about the game than you have done so far in your attempt to tell people what they should and shouldn't say.

theres no respec - its supposed to be more character driven, in that if you fuck up your choices - you live with it

although im sure there will be mods for it, like everything else - including and especially combat, just like there was last time, addressing the same things people are complaining about this time

There IS a respec in the game. 1000 gold from a particular vendor. Found it last night. And no I'm not ruining for people by saying where. I will say though that it's somewhere in Velen.

I found it too but saw no reason to do so.

I didn't buy it either. As I didn't have enough gold and I've only miss spent 1 point to try out that Adrenaline for Vitality if your get to 0 hp. Didnt find that skill useful enough to take up one of the active skill slots.

right on, im not surprised theres a surprise or two in there

We are. You've been the one throwing insults at others and trying to dictate what exactly about the game we should be talking about.

I've actually been very thorough countering the bullshit being spread with facts. And the only person I believe I've insulted directly is that Mack guy, who isn't even here.

Well, that's thoroughly disappointing to hear that CDPR have completely fallen to the dark side and are catering to the full retard gamer demographic now with a respec option.
Real men stick with their choices and real manly developers who pretend to give a fuck about choices & consequences should NEVER ever offer a respec option in their games.

But as CDP's Iwinski said these days:

"We broke into the mainstream. It is such a moment in our firm's history that after some years people will look differently at CD Projekt before and after this release."

Thanks but I just found the merchant who sells a respec potion in Novigrad, 1000 crowns though. I wish I didn't have to spend so much money repairing my shit constantly.

One thing I'd like to know is whether there is a respec option later. I thought I was fairly far into the game but I haven't seen one yet. I've just been putting my points haphazardly into things since its hard to tell when a particular sign or attack style is going to be necessary.

I would caution new players away from the alchemy tree, I'm pretty underwhelmed with it so far. What have you guys been investing in skill wise? Have you tried any of the alternative signs yet?
