CD Projekt RED 'working closely with Valve' as The Witcher 3 is Steam Deck Verified

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: slaapliedjeI still need to figure out how to beat five over powered bastards in the second game to progress and beat that!

The only overpowered enemies I remember in the 2nd game were a few mages in an optional fight. And not five of them.

These are specifically in some city sewer area. Like I had a hard time taking one out, and there are 5 in this small little area that you get locked into as you're escorting some people through the sewers. They're the nastier undead guys that you can normally roll away from, and then strike, but it's kind of hard when there 5 in an enclosed area! It is an optional bit, I believe, but since my most recent save game is right next to them...

An Official confirmation would still be better(or renewing the old one with a time frame/estimate).

Quoting: rustybroomhandleWow, the comments on that announcement seem to be 90% Russians yelling about nazis and calling CDPR "traitors" and stuff.

It's saddening what propaganda can do to people.

Are you assuming these are all organic people falling for propaganda? Don't discount the prevalence of state-run troll farms.

Indeed. Plenty of that kind of thing (well, and private sector troll farms) on all sides. I understand the estimate for twitter is half or more of retweets are by bots.

And you know, it's really hard to take that kind of thing into account. I know lots of people who are aware in the abstract that corporations and intelligence agencies have major league PR/propaganda operations, but for any given news story or social media rumour it doesn't occur to them, seems like conspiracy thinking, that it could be an actual example of that stuff they know intellectually exists. One's normal channels of information feel familiar and ordinary, there's this presumption of reliability.

I think whatever you do to correct someone being wrong bring the opposite of what you seek if you try to use either force or persuasion.

It's hard to not make a judgement on some behaviour that are supposed to be condemned, there surely should be another approach.

Nonetheless I'm pretty impressed by Witcher 3 on steamdeck! It's looking very nice, the performance are impressive using proton and it seems quite amazing to play as well.
