Witcher 3 has replaced Maplestory

I've basically stopped playing Maplestory actively and put it entirely on hold while I play Witcher 3. This will continue for the foreseeable future. In other words: everyone that has a slight interest in the game should buy it and clear their calendars and figure out ways to skip school.

[quote=SirKibbleX2]Did you know playing maple takes less internet data than watching a YouTube video for the same length of time?

That's why I'm playing maple again with my limited internet here.[/quote]

[quote=AshleyAttacked]Needless correction.

Your point? I already addressed an end in it. However, each play through is taking hundreds of hours at a time and there are so many variations...and yes, there is character development and gear treasure hunting ad nauseum.[/quote]
It sucks cus I finished the game but didn't do some side stuff and now im stuck forever qq like the Gwent card collection quests. Some NPCs are forever gone and I can't verse em for amazin cards
I would restart it if i could be bothered tho

Im interested in how you finished the game though if ya don't mind telling me
SPOILER (Do not read if you don't want an alternate ending)

Mine was the ending where me and Ciri go out doin Witcher stuff, with the male in Skellige becoming King, Redania won the war and started killing the non humans and Geralt is lone wolfing it killing for gold because I forgot to do a quest with Yen and denied Triss.

[quote=Voidam]actually the limit is the one the developpers put in seeing as you play a premade character with a premade story but sure[/quote]
Pessimism isn't a valid point in this situation. Sorry =(

My point remains. The limit is the one in your own mind. For me the possibilities are massive.

[quote=AshleyAttacked]Almost right. You go the second half right, the first half you stumbled on again.

In Witcher, theres a whole world to explore and play in. The only limit is one placed by your imagination.[/quote]

[quote=Voidam]first of all, it's Fallout

second of all, Witcher 3 isnt the type of game that lasts for weeks/months... you WILL eventually get bored of it, it's in the core design of the game[/quote]

[quote=AshleyAttacked]I've been playing since the day it was released. Hundreds and hundreds of hours. Yeah, Skyrim is my favourite game of all time...but this will do fine till Fall Out 4 comes out this fall.[/quote]

[quote=Voidam]What? Witcher 3 is a single player RPG but it's not like skyrim (character progression & customization, open world free roaming, non linear storyline) , it doesn't have elements of a game like MS or Skyrim or WoW that keeps you playing, you're gonna play it maybe a few days then stop[/quote]

Wrong. This game is life defining. Story and gameplay are far from being hinged on graphics.

[quote=GizzyJones]I really liked the first Witcher for the first 10 hours, but now I'm at the point where I have about 20 or more quests in my journal and it's overwhelming me. Any thoughts? Should I grind through the first and play the second and then the third? Would it make the experience better to play the first and second? Are they going to be enjoyable if I find myself in this predicament?[/quote]
The third Witcher is designed for everyone to have no problem understanding things. Theres also a good plot overview of 1 and 2 to get ppl ready for the third from IGN that you can see on youtube.

Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXfW2LWK3m4

You would be fine skipping to the third. The second is great but I'd say play it later and focus now on Witcher 3.

I prefer to surrender to the addiction, it's always nice to take a break from Maple - I've been playing it 10 years, I won't miss much by letting myself have some fun xD

Witcher 3 is love and life Geralt is a badass. Ironically I stopped playing witcher 3 and started playing MS again after 6 months. I had been playing witcher 3 non stop for 2 weeks so I needed a break >.>. Game is addicting.

No, I thought it might but I also dismissed that thot since I'm a noob and uninformed about that sort of thing. Thanks for letting me know tho xD

I still stay logged in at all times, 24/7.
