Does anyone know what the level for entry if I wanna use current Geralt is? I'm level 31

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Can't wait, finally jumped back into my 10 hr game a week ago and can't remember why I ever put it down.

B&W starts at level 35. You should play Hearts of Stone, the first expansion, first to level up.

 

[FHIZ]

Boo, I thought it was coming out on the 24th. But good lord, do I need this in my life.

 

[scoobs]

Fuck man, I am so hyped I can't even believe we are this lucky

 

[FunkyDealer]

Can't wait. Will have to. A bit sad. Still excited.

 

[OléGunner]

Brb changing pants.

 

[Unity2012]

CDPR you guys are leading the pack in gameplay-story-telling along with the Santa Monica Naughty boys. I'm so glad you guys are still mastering exciting Single player games.

Blood & Wine looks amazing! TW3 was my most played game last year... and this year too. Thank you.

Does anyone know if this DLC will be standalone or will I have to have purchased the game? I borrowed and finished the game on PS4.

You have to own the main game.

Requires the base game.

It's on sale though for $25 at every retailer for TW3 anniversary. Well worth the money.

Oh right. Guess I'm gonna have to buy the game then, at least this way I can play HOS too.

Yeah, I tried to ninja edit before your post. I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling Gaffers

I like the Polish version more:

God damn, should release earlier I don't know what I'll do for the week and a half.

Thank God Overwatch will be here for the last week's wait.

 

[blackjaw]

So good! I need to finish my new game +

[Shaanyboi]

Looks so good!

 

[His Majesty]

The beauty of Toussaint in contrast with the dark intrigue seems like a great set-up. Add another layer for the humour coming from Geralt being completely out of place in this fantasy kingdom and you've got your GOTY.

He's not really completely out of place. He's been there before, in the books. Toussaint is a strange place in general.

Freakin' beautiful... My ears are not ready for Blood and Wine!

 

[Elginer]

Holy cow that looks great. Man that season pass at launch I got was some damn fucking good value. Other devs and publishers need to get with it.

Oh shucks.

I thought the theme was going to be a slightly altered version of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2oVSwflClQ

But then it completely changes. I like it though.

 

[Amon-Lau]

UGH! I wanna play it already!!! Dx

 

[dc89]

Got damn, they've done it again.

 

[Plum]

Welp, that's my £15 down. Such amazing value with that price, and Toussaint looks amazing.

... although I do need to fix the MASSIVE levels of stuttering I'm experiencing in TW3 right now or else BaW is going to be a pretty shit experience.

 

[Fuz]

Goddammit it looks fantastic.

I can't believe it's the last we'll see of Geralt.

Best Season Pass I've ever bought.

 

[jim2point0]

Looks like someone set the saturation up to 11 in this DLC.

1:11 - dat grass draw distance. Yeaaah..... going to have to increase that. Let's hope the ultimate graphics options mod is updated for this.
