Help! Does anyone else have this bug where only a portion of the question markers on Skellige appear on the map even though I selected for all of them to be visible? Is this a known bug? I'm almost positive there should be many more question mark locations visible.

About the third wish of Oldgierd
I just finished the Heart Of Stone expansion and I caught my attention that for the first 2 wishes of Oldgierd Von Eberec, Gunter O Dimm say something about that his agreement with Oldgierd doesn't mention that he could help to fulfill the wishes and helps Geralt with blood and information about Maxim Borsodis House what amaze me it's that for the third wish O Dimm doesn't help you at all, which talks a lot about the good Witcher that is Geralt, the curse on Iris was really complex. Is this level of Witchery something that Geralt generally does in other games or lore in books?

Discussion It feels so good to be a skillful Witcher
Now that the remaster is out, I decided to play NG+ and Death March for the first time.
After a complete playthrough including the DLCs and learning the lore of The Witcher, I'm really enjoying understanding how a witcher would think and prepare for a fight.
I'm still at an early stage of NG+, but it's great when you know what you actually need and can prepare to fight a monster, especially now that I redistributed my points, understand the Signs better, have mastercrafted armor and weapons, and learned that I have to read the Beastiary.
DM still feels hard but not impossible if you're a skillful Witcher.
P.S. I don't know why I underestimated Yrden on my first playthrough. It’s fucking powerful when used properly!

Screenshot Geralt v (pissed off) Wyvern...btw I love the wyvern design in W3, their scales, horns, hair, and teeth make for a very cool looking monster.

Discussion Death March is INSANE
This is my first real playthrough of the Witcher…starting to think it’s almost impossible to do a first run on death march. It is PAINFULLY difficult at the early levels. Almost feels impossible. No money to stock up on oils, or food. No other way to heal. You got 0 XP, I’m struggling. The new combat system I’m getting used to it and I’m just whiffing attacks CONSTANTLY. Just wanted to vent a little before I gave up.

Help! How do I get there?
Wanna see what’s in that question mark but I don’t know if I have to parkour my way up or if I’m missing something

Ealderman Bolko gets around
After I played Maddie a round of Gwent in Midcopse, I meditated until six (edit) AM. And then I went inside the Ealderman's hut to start Jenny of the wood, and who was getting out of his bed? It was the Bucher's wife from Blackbough. When I finished Jenny of the Woods it was night (of course) and i went to collect from him and he's got a different woman in his bed sleeping!
I just had to share that little bit of gossip.

Help! Gwint- 1 Card missing in Velen
Hi Fellas,
I‘m looking for the last missing Card in Velen. I checked through several guides, unlocked the Traders, which appear when you free them from Bandits, but I cannot find the last missing card.
I guess its one of the leaders, but didn’t came to check every card i got.
Does anyone here unlocked the achievment „Collect them all“?

Discussion In the Eternal Fire's Shadow was fun
Never got around to playing this new(ish) quest until now. Maybe it's just it being new to me, but I loved just how dark the quest got in its world building. The atmosphere was definitely up there as one of the creepiest locations in the game. For those of you who have played Fallout 4, it reminded me a bit of the Dunwich Borers, but if shit really hit the fan and an actual demon haunted it.
One of my favorite parts about the Witcher is when Geralt will deduce the species he's hunting and establish their weaknesses. I loved how this quest still revolved around that, but Geralt was merely completing the path already taken by Reinald.
The biggest critique is that I wish there was dialogue when using the magic lamp to further show how messed up that mine really was. I also felt that it was too easy to get the deacon to give up on the church. While I probably would have always tried to save him, it would have been interesting if there was another outcome that radicalized him. Like if Geralt messed up so badly, he drinks the Kool-Aid and becomes no better than the average sleazy priest of the EF.
Overall a very fun quest. I don't think it'll wear the armor much, but still worth experiencing if you haven't yet.

Spoilers! A bit more than what she bargain for Spoiler
galleryI've always like Keira. She's charming and smart but like all other's she is power hungry with self satisfaction motives only. I've always either killed her or sent her to a safe place. First time letting her do what she wants and well....I don't think she deserves this.

Help! Hattori doesn’t see my existing Enhanced Wolven Steel Sword in Remastered Version
I have the Enhanced Wolven Steel Sword armed. I have the diagrams for the Superior Wolven Sword and all remaining ingredients required. However, Hattori doesn’t see my existing sword, therefore I can’t upgrade. The solutions I tried:
- Save and reload the game.
- Restart the game.
- Go and do a couple of other quests and come back.
- Start to craft the Wolven sword from base level and upgrade upwards just to humour Hattori.
None of them worked. Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it?

Is there anything here other than guarded treasure?
This totally looks like it could be a puzzle of some sort. Gotta light the correct candles or something. I can’t remember anything off the top of my head. It’s at the guarded treasure spot east of Kimbolt Way in the southeast section of Velen.

Discussion Does anyone else feel complete emptiness after finishing?
I'm not a RPG player I only play these type of games because of story, reason why I couldn't even go half in KCD2. But this story just sucked me in. I played before god of war 2018 and ragnarok(I know they're not full rpg) but I played it because I was invested in Kratos story since the first game. But Witcher? Hard to tell, I started this game after long time of dropping it, played maybe 7 or 8 years ago but not focusing on story. At first I played for the world, romance and so on but at some point it all became more about Ciri. I genuinely felt close connection to her character and their bond is something that holds me by my heart. I can't really explain it, now that I finished the story it all feels empty. I can't even get myself to do some side quests or even the DLC. Has anyone gotten the same feeling or is that just me?
