If Cavill is a true fan and wants to tell the Witcher story in canon, he should just get with A.S. & investors and tell the story the way they envision. Even if it’s just the short stories. Or even make a movie for Season of Storm or a 1 season streaming of SoS. The budget doesn’t have to be big. Look at how good the fan fiction effort was with Alzur’s Legacy. They did that film on a budget of less than $10,000 usd and it’s pretty damn good and directly in line with Witcher canon. (It’s in Polish with English subtitles). Plus the actress that plays Triss is a babe!
Just Updated
I recently started reading the Witcher novels (just finished Sword of Destiny), but at the same time I have just bought Witcher 3.
I have heard that one should read all the books before playing, but it would take months to do so, and I really want to play the game as well. Speedreading the books tho would ruin the experience for me.
So the question is: Should I start playing now, and keep reading the books at the same time?
I want to enjoy both to the fullest, thus I want to know how much the game reaches back to the books.
Thanks :)
Hello everyone!
In case you're not aware, for the past few months, Fandom has been performing experiments with the Interactive Maps feature, including an option for users to track their personal progress with the markers on a map. (This would allow, for example, for you to keep track of all collectibles you have in a game - which turns the maps into something you can have more interaction with than before.)
The third iteration of this experiment is going to be available very soon for various game wikis, including this one. In this test, there are multiple design variants that different users will be getting as we figure out what makes the most sense. You can find all the details about this, as well as some visuals, in this blog post about the update.
(If anyone would like to see details on the earlier versions of the experiment, you can also check the initial details, and also for the second iteration.)
If you have any comments to make about this experiment, please go ahead and let me know, and I'll relay that to the lovely people that are working on this. This is still actively being debated / developed, so any feedback would be highly appreciated ;)
I'm going to be honest when i say the witcher 3 game is overhyped and honestly kinda sucked

I want to start all dlcs with the previous game in tact, but don't want to go all over the main story. Is there any possibility to start DLCs with all the side quests reset and stuff like that

Is anyone still getting audio bugs for Witcher 3 on ps5? Everytime I save the game, exit and come back, theres a ringing/shining type of sound in the background that keeps on happening. Is it fixable or has cdprojekt continued to delay the fixes for it?
Hey everyone!
This week, Fandom released an update to the VisualEditor, targeting the interface of both the Visual Mode and the VE - Source Mode (also known as the '2017 editor'). The goal is to improve the editing experience there to make it more intuitive than it use to be.
You can check the announcement blog from staff for more details and a bit of history behind these changes, and also the updated help page.
To summarize, some of the changes the team worked on are these:
Some of the tools have been renamed (e.g. "paragraph" is now "normal text")
Icons were shuffled around (e.g. the back and forward arrow buttons are now located on the far left rather than the middle)
Some less-essential tools were hidden from view to make the initial editor view a little less overwhelming (but the tools are still accessible in dropdown menus)
For the 2017 source mode: removal of the options available from the menu icon (the three stacked horizontal bars) -- To get those back, anyone can customize the toolbar to access them from there)
For the 2017 source mode: the menu icon was used to replace the gear icon
You can also see an outline of these in the design mocks below:
VisualEditor - Visual Mode
VisualEditor - Source Mode (a.k.a. 2017 source mode editor)
Separate from this, some functionality changes have also happened to the older source editor (a.k.a. "2010 editor"). Those are unrelated to the VE changes, and some have been filed as bug tickets (for instance, a cursor not being visible on wikis using a dark skin).
If you have any questions or feedback to share, you're more than welcome to either reply here, or message me directly. Cheers, and have a nice Friday/weekend!
Hello guys, im new in the franchise. Can you give me a summary of what i need to play, watch or read?
Also hi guys
I got into it by way of YT
And now I will go find the books bc I'm at the library
Hey everyone! I thought I'd summarize a bit of what's been going on in the past couple of months at Fandom in terms of features and other updates.
The Thanks extension is now optionally available for all wikis
This feature allows you to thank other editors for specific contributions they made. After much testing, it has been included as an option for wiki admins via the Admin Dashboard.
It can be toggled on/off at any point by admins, which is great for those wikis that are unsure and just wanting to test for a bit to see how it works.
You can find more information about the feature itself in the help page written for it, as well as some history behind it in the announcement post published by staff.
Gamepedia wikis now display less ads for logged-in users
Wikis that originally came from Gamepedia lacked the "don't show all ads" option Fandom wikis have. Happy to report this is no longer the case, and the ad display for logged-in users is limited to the main page, not regular content pages.
(This isn't 100% relevant to this wiki, as it isn't a GP wiki - but given that this has been a controversial topic for a long time, it's important enough to be shared. Obviously a small step, but hopefully one that begins to address community concerns.)
Notifications for message reports were released back in November
In response to user feedback about lack of visibility for reports, admins and Discussion moderators can now receive a new set of notifications for reported posts/messages in a wiki's social areas (Discussions, walls, comments).
These are enabled by default for any admins/mods at their wikis and can be disabled at each wiki where you have one of these roles via the "notifications" tab in user preferences in case you prefer not to have the notifications for certain wiki(s).
You can find more information about these in the announcement post made by Fandom staff.
The Quick Answers Dashboard is actively being tested by a set of wikis
Quick Answers is a feature that adds a set of AI-sourced questions/answers to character pages. There was a disastrous release of these back in August, with many inaccuracies, and the feature had to be removed at the time. The current goal is to bring it back by providing much more admin control over the content.
To that end, Fandom has been working on testing a new QA Dashboard with a few wikis. The dashboard allows inaccurate content to be reported, provides admins with the ability to alter answers, and also the option to reduce the amount of answers available. (You can find more info, as well as images of the dashboard itself, in the Quick Answers help page).
Witcher Wiki is actually one of the few wikis helping with this testing stage - huge thanks for all your input in helping make this feature better!
More news / technical updates
A number of new experiments have been taking place and are either still running, concluding, or being planned for upcoming testing. You can find more information on these by checking Fandom's Technical Update posts, as well as more detailed posts on some of the experiments in the Fandom Stars Wiki.
For details on current bugs recently fixed or being looked into, as well as other feature news, you can also check technical updates and other recent posts via the Fandom Staff Blog in Community Central.
Just started my first playthrough in the witcher3 any advice?
So I just did the “Turn and Face the Strange” Blood and Stone secondary mission, and unlocked the new “mutagens” abilities.
I’m just asking out of curiosity, which is the best one to start with, the signs (blue) one or the red (attack) one? Or rather, which one did you guys start with (since I know it’s a matter of opinion)?
I am not going to worry about the green ones because I didn’t really worry about unlocking any of the “Alchemy” abilities. I did unlock two alchemy abilities, but have spent most of my ability points on combat and signs abilities.
