@Ralizah yeah my base ps4 struggled with novigrad, thought it would take off and fly round the room! I had the same outcome as you for the bloody baron, though I tried to kill the botchling and it mutated to some crazy monster! The progression arc in the game is broken but the stories and world the game crafts are amazing! I keep writing thing to tell you only to delete them as I don't want to spoil things!! All I can say is enjoy!
@Ralizah That's a better outcome for Bloody Baron and Crookback Bog than what I got.
As Geralt rescued the spirit in the tree, it stuck to its word and rescued the children, but it also destroyed the village it had been plaguing. Geralt also turned the baby monster thing into a friendly fetus. Since the children escaped, the Crones punished Anna by cursing her to be a water hag. Geralt was able to break the curse and turn her back into a human. However, the Crones had put one last trick in place, causing her to die if the curse were to be lifted. She had just enough time to say goodbye to the Baron and her daughter before dying. After this, the Bloody Baron ends up hanging himself, causing a more horrible and ruthless person to take over as Baron.
@Ralizah Man, you should have seen Novigrad when the game first released, it was an utter mess! CDPR did sort it out eventually on PS4, but it took a few months for that to happen.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@QualityGeezer I'm still in the middle of the game (about to go to Skellige), but my favourite scene so far is when you face off with the Wild Hunt for the first time in that cave with Keira. Up until then, they're portrayed as a super tough threat that should be avoided at all costs, and suddenly you're having to defend yourself from them.
I was eager to finally go to Skellige after doing lots of side quests, but didn't have the 1000 coins needed as I'd just spent all my money on various things. So instead I did the fist fight challenges and some contracts to earn gold. Next time, I should finally be able to go there.
Not going to start this playing this just yet seeing as i'm halfway through Dark Souls II... But I did take five minutes to have a look round the introductory bit of Kaer Morhen
My PS4 slim fan is barely making a peep despite the stunning moutain vista already...

OK, having gotten a bit further in the story, I REALLY like the bit where you infiltrate the witch hunters' compound with Triss, and you're forced to listen to the torturer rip her fingernails off as you try to get information out of your target. Gripping stuff, and very cool how they seem to give control of how long that goes on to the player.
@Gremio108 Just got done with that mission. Did you kill or spare the doppelganger? I spared him, despite that lessening my pay-out. Stealing to get by doesn't seem like a crime worthy of death.
@RalizahYeah, I let him go. It seemed too harsh to kill the guy. Plus, it's handy to have a doppelganger knocking about , just in case Geralt ever fancies doing something evil. "Everyone in the village burned by Igni? Must have been that guy who goes around impersonating me, officer."
Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
@RalizahOh wow, I completely missed that, and didn't know how horrible that bit could have been. I instead chose the dialogue option to cast the sign Axii on one of the witch hunters, as Axii had always worked up to now. Other witch hunters noticed that, which led to a fairly generic fight between Geralt and Triss and all the witch hunters, and killing Menge without getting to talk to him. Afterwards, Triss complains to Geralt for being foolish enough to expect Axii to work there.
@crimsontadpoles It sounds like the situation largely turned out the same, despite the wildly different ways of getting there. I'm guessing, despite a lot of the freedom of choice in how you do something, more scenarios only have one or two outcomes. In my case, I couldn't pry the information out of the target, and Triss ended up killing him in rage after escaping her torturer. I only get him to spit our the broadest detail about where Dandelion is being held captive, and have to find a doppelganger to play the role of Menge in order to have Dandelion released. I actually got a dialogue option where I asked the doppler I spared to help me, but he wouldn't go for it.
I wish the Switch version supported cross-save with PC. I'd buy that version to play on the go, and then switch back to PC once I had the opportunity to do so.
No point in getting it now that I'm 35+ hours in, though.
@Octane Oh yeah. I accidentally wandered into a bunch of witch hunters afterward and had to kill them all, so Triss set fire to the place afterward. I don't know if that changes if you manage to sneak out.
Who was it that said money would cease to be an issue at some point? Have a cookie. I have money coming out of my ears now, and numerous extra swords and outfits (yet I just keep getting this one sword repaired, for some reason). I left the mask from the side quest with Triss on because I think it looks cool. Geralt can be some sort of medieval superhero, which... isn't horrendously far off.
Fun game. Probably going to take a break soon, though.
