me too. I wasted time swimming around because I didn't remember how I got on this ship the 1st time

I remember another sorceress cellmate my 1st playthrough too. I wonder what happened to her

I didn't know that's possible! I've had to use axii to get behind the shield because I usually use fast attacks. thanks!

the iconic Marston pose vid is getting the most daily views right now. I think you're the 1 who reminded me about that scene I noticed other channels cut out too much context. I happened to like what happens after the pose, which someone pointed out is also iconic

@@mtview Whoa that may be one reason why yours got more views, I am indeed who reminded you the very first time I played that mission. Super flattering!

Micah is such an Iago

someone may have a longer Plan to Save Han vid on getting to the minikits. I most likely roamed around until a minikit icon on the map was close enough to help me. then, I needed a character with more than a lightsaber for this particular kit

@@mtview ok thank you not a lot of people have a vid on how to get here to this spot but thank you so much! i appreciate you for helping me

no one extra helped at the battle of KM my 1st playthrough. not even sure what happened to Keira. this time, almost everyone extra was there since I finished every contract and more side quests prior to Isle of Mists. even Folan was there!

@@mtview You can see in my 1st playthrough who helped at the battle of KM. I liked the way the game used the help. It is such a pity that I will never know how my 2nd playthrough would have played out. I had no clue who would have turned up at KM, so no idea how it would have gone.

I couldn't buy it at the dye merchant for some reason. it's the only color I wanted 🥷

I had to restart the game to play this quest. it's open for such a small portion of the story. I probably missed the stranger in a strange land quest

was any gwent card there?

I believe this was from new game plus

have you played the unseen elder option too? I played the unseen elder option and stopped at a certain point when it didn't offer the option I wanted. I won't spoil it in case you're not familiar with that alternate path. I recently learned how to play Ludo. it's neat seeing the Latin "ludum" in Beyond Hill & Dale

@@mtview I grew up playing Ludo! We used to play it a lot when I was a child. I only roughly remembered certain events that happened in the Land of Fables. I chose options that were consistent with other choices made in my first playthrough. I do not remember the 'unseen elder option'. So, cannot remember what path I chose. I remember there being a wolf, that kept chasing you and Syanna. The major boss battle in the sky at the end. Geralt can choose to have a 'relationship' with Syanna Geralt in my first playthrough was only interested in romancing Yennifer, so declined Syanna's advances. I would have to watch more videos to remember what happened in the Land of Fables. I would prefer to watch a full playthrough, however, I am content with watching your short independent videos. Watching a full playthrough helps to show how all the events are linked together based on previous choices.

@@kalliankgaming fun! in the past I played Sorry! It's similar to Ludo. I'm surprised to read that both games are from England. my Geralt doesn't like Syanna because of what she did to Dettlaff

@@mtview I never played Sorry. Looking at it online, it does look similar to Ludo. It does look like a good game to play. In my first playthrough, Geralt killed Dettlaff because he was a danger to people and he killed too many. he also became a danger to Regis. Geralt might have let him live but Dettlaff ignored Regis's pleas to stop. Geralt did not care what Syanna did to Detlaff, that was not an excuse for him to go killing people. Detlaff was a higher vampire and Geralt had to kill him As for Syanna. Geralt wanted to help her because she suffered from the 'Curse of the Black Sun'. He has met girls/women who had suffered and killed because they were born during an eclipse. Despite what she did, If I remember, the people that Syanna made Dettlaff kill. They had made her suffer. He also wanted to reconcile her relationship with her sister. I do not know what the Geralt in my second playthrough would have done He might have killed them both or let them both live. He never met them, so do not know how he would have dealt with the situation.

@@kalliankgaming I sympathize with Dettlaff. he was highly altruistic to Regis and others. he thought he was being altruistic for Syanna. the puppets in the toy shop symbolize Dettlaff's plight. he cut off his own hand out of remorse over his puppet master's orders. Syanna showed zero remorse in my playthrough. she wanted Dettlaff to target her sister. she also scared someone into murdering an innocent in the past too. Regis mentions Dettlaff was fiercely loyal by nature, and he did not have an understanding of human manipulation. Syanna turned him into a monster. impressive how the game allows the player to decide if Dettlaff's monstrous behavior ends via Syanna or Dettlaff

😄 maybe this could go on my Latin playlist for "opinionated"

this quest is amazing. this quest, A Knight's Tales & Where the Cat & Wolf Play are the only quests I've replayed more than 2x. I was in a rush the 1st time I played it so I went to the herbalist as instructed by the prompt. I remember thinking that was an oddly simple quest. ignorance was bliss now that I'm only playing about 1 quest or contract every few days I think about them more. I started looking around their place. the basement search only triggers if one walks in the opposite direction of the prompt. I then felt weird choosing this option after thinking about how they weren't scavengers, they were likely predators. reloaded and chose the don't believe option. also visited a few days later sounds like you didn't finish the HoS Olgierd/Iris quests. I think the expansion stories are better than the original main story

@@mtview I finished B & W and what I have played of HoS so far, they are great expansions. With wonderful stories. Especially seeing Regis and Shani. However, I would not say they are better or worse than the main story. It may be because of how I play games and how I role play. I do not look at the whole main story when playing the game.

I typed sword stats in the title before I realized they change depending on when they get looted

I watched sections of your Return to Crookback Bog vids. I was looking to see what happens if someone chooses the "it doesn't make sense" (paraphrased from memory) option when the baron suggests taking his wife to a healer. so far, I haven't seen a player choose that option. I didn't see this scene on your vids yet. I'm not sure when you returned to Crow's Perch. for me, it didn't take place until I happened to need master crafted armor. it's nice how a fast travel location finally shows up near the armorer

@@mtview "It does not make sense" did not make sense to me in the context of what happened. That is probably why nobody chooses it. In my second playthrough, I return to Crow's Perch quite a few videos after what happened in Crookback Bog.

hopefully someone who played this on PC will have tips for you on console, I found it confusing that the map that is not the world map has the title world map. I'm not sure what prompt or click opens the world map on PC

@@mtview I could fix it, I just had to put the mod Turbolightning out of my mods folder

why?

I had to lower difficulty on this quest because it's HoS

@@mtview Lowered the difficulty! 🤣You were level 97 the Red Flame enemies in this video were level 82! You completely annihilated them in this video. It did not look like you struggled. That made me laugh. It would have been interesting to see what abilities you had. You must have a lot of abilities at level 97.

@@kalliankgaming ☺😆 is 💯 the highest level? it's so weird because I could do lots of stuff on Death March when I wasn't using witcher armor. non-witcher armor has more Vitality, and it's so easy to loot. witcher armor takes a looong time to get and upgrade. I'm getting witcher armor for the drip. I'm still leveling up the Wolven armor. at the time of this quest I only had Enhanced Wolven armor, 2 tiers lower than some of my current gear. this quest has many guys who could take me out with 1 hit. I made it easy because I got tired of dying & load screens. it would have been pretty pathetic if I livestreamed my many fails on this quest in particular

@@mtview Yeah, I tried to find all the Woven Armour in both of my playthroughs and found it hard to find all the pieces! I was level 9/10 (Death March) when I started the "Rose on a Red Field" quest! I remember how long it took me to complete this quest! The fights were long. Fighting just one bandit took about 10 - 20 minutes. I am so glad I knew how to dodge or there would have been lots of reloading! I was also using basic plain witcher armour. I was also only allowing Geralt to upgrade the General and Combat trees. Nearly all the enemies had a 'red skull' Watching your video, it is good to compare how the fights are when you are at a high level. What I do remember when doing this quest at a low level was using Axii. I remember when fighting Mad Kiyan in my first playthrough and destroying him with just one move using Axii. Just using the basic Axii you can critically kill a human with one move even if they are at a higher level. Axii was extremely helpful in the Red Rose quest. I am never bothered if a player dies a 'million' times! I only get annoyed if a player keeps dying because they keep making the same mistake a 'million' times. That is frustrating to watch. This just tells me that the player does not understand the game and should not be playing it. I also do not like it when people cut out all their deaths in a full Let's Play and definitely in a Blind Playthrough. These players pretend they are good at a game when they are not. I would never intentionally or deliberately cut out any deaths in my Let's Play. Your Witcher videos are not part of a Let's Play so I have no problem with you cutting out your deaths. This video is not about demonstrating how good your fighting skills were. It is about the armour you get when you defeat these enemies... Talking about armour you get when doing this quest. I do remember when doing the Red Rose quest I could not use any of the weapons or armour because of the level requirement. The armour was level 33/35!

@@kalliankgaming I tend to default to Quen or Igni. Axii is pretty helpful. I'm trying to use it more often for tough fights. for my botchling fight I had to look at the bestiary mid fight because no other sign worked

1st playthrough I destroyed the whispering hillock 2nd playthrough I planned to release it however, I got scared when Geralt didn't recognize its bones, there were bodies all around it & I couldn't let the innocent horse get possessed. so I tricked it and destroyed the hillock again

@@mtview I know in both of my playthroughs I did not follow the game's order of things. I need to watch my playthroughs to remember what exactly I did. In my 1st playthrough, I do remember that I went to the Hillock before going to Downwarren and meeting Anna and the children. This is one of many quests in which you can see how things and dialogues change depending on the order you do things. The music in this game is one of the best in any game I have played.

@@kalliankgaming I keep thinking about how much work must have went into this game. it's amazing
