Yes witcher 3 ruin me too, I lost interest to play other games

[@spectrespect]

@@christopherwray4788 Idk, I recently played Elden Ring (well, not so recently, about a year ago), and I really liked this game. Everything was great, the gameplay and maybe more importantantly the lore. My first thought after beating Elden Ring was something like: "Well, this game is very good, maybe even equal to the Witcher 3". I know that not everyone likes the storytelling style presented in Elden Ring and many people don't even try this game because it's "too hard". But imo this game definitely has a "soul". Perhaps XLetalis also liked Elden Ring and it was one of those games that he said he liked, but for some reason doesn't want to make videos about it.

[@ancientdragon6049]

I can relate a lot with what you're saying. Ever since I finished my first Witcher 3 playthrough I've been wanting to love a game as much, but six years later I've played a lot of games I enjoy but nothing comes even close and I always have to go back to TW3. It's still a once in a lifetime experience for me.

[@christopherwray4788]

If we’re being honest and facing reality, TW3 was the last game of its kind. Games like that just aren’t made anymore. And they won’t ever be again. Its just not how the industry works anymore. We will continue to get ever more streamlined, rushed, political pandering, moneygrab games and mediocre “meh its fun i guess” games at best. Sure there may be some decent indie games here and there but they simply won’t have the resources to make actual masterpieces. The good days are gone. It will only get much, much worse from here on out.

[@Your-Least-Favorite-Stranger]

@@christopherwray4788 Which is funny because those sorts of games are what AAA studios have admitted to not wanting in the industry. They were threatened by Baldur's Gate 3 and overly told people who enjoy it: Enjoy it, but lower your standards because this isn't what we're making. Expect titles like this once in 10 years or so because we arent interested in putting this much into a complete game - there has been a LOT of backlash but AAA studio reps havent budged. They dont respect the interests or gamers who make them successful; we're cashcows to them, so any time you find a studio who holds this stance? Boycott them. Refuse to buy their streamlined, microtransactiony games that intentionally fall short of expectations and content - don't feed the giants that think we're here to serve them and swallow their shit with a smile and a thank you. Hit them in the wallets and hold fast until they definitively change their ways; stay alert because they'll try shifting back over time. Hold gaming studios and AAA developers responsible for the gradual decline of our gaming landscape. We are people, and we dont deserve to be taken advantage of.

​@@christopherwray4788I see the sentiment, but that's definitely just a pretentious know-it-all thing to say.

I'm just annoyed by people that like to throw statements like yours which are obviously emotionally biased, but act as if it's a fact.

[@hitrapperandartistdababy]

I may have found a pretty major secret concerning Gaunter O’dimm. If you let the time run out at the final decision (Killing Olgierd) for a plit second before the screen cuts Gaunter’s face model is overlapped by another more dead looking face, I reloaded my save to check and it happens everytime! Is this supposed to show us what Gaunter looks like to Olgierd as he is grabbing his soul? Or is it a visual bug? Whats interesting is that it doesn’t look like Gaunters face neither. Its hard to tell because its so brief but it looks very unnerving

[@xLetalis]

[@alexstavru8424]

My daughter will be 3 this fall so I totally understand you wanting to spend time with family. She had a BAD infection a few months ago and I simply shut down the entire world just to be with her. She’s fine and happy as ever now, of course but that made me realize that any game will still be here X amount of time from now. Family moments are temporary. I wish you and your family the best. Regarding the Baldurs gate situation, by the time you get done with cyberpunk there should be saves and mods available to make your life in the first act easier. Also, the RNG part gets WAY better as you progress.

[@Davidium84]

I just gotta tell you that a KZbin without you isn’t a KZbin I want! What about streaming Witcher content like hidden secrets etc? And also I agree about cyberpunk totally BUT I really do think that they have poured their heart into it this time! It might be really good! And playing with Path-Tracing is just such an immersive experience! I feel for you and you family and daughter of-course!!! I really hope the worrying lessens! Bible says “worry not of tomorrow cause tomorrow brings its own worries. And most that you worry about don’t end up happening anyway, and that which ends up happening will happen either you worry or not! Hugs from Sweden

[@goatofdeath]

I think you really hit the nail on the head regarding Balder's Gate 3. It really is missing that sense of groundedness. Many epic things happened in the Witcher 3, but many of the smaller stories resonate even more. The world of the Witcher feels very lived in and real. I think BG3 is really well written, but it is very high, over the top, fantasy. It makes sense, since that is kind of D&D's roots as compared to the more grimy world of the Witcher. Another big thing missing in BG3 that Witcher 3 had in spades is weather and wilderness. Overall the maps of BG3 feel very well crafted and packed in with content at each turn. By comparison you could sort of wander the Witcher a bit more and just enjoy the world for what it was. I think the pacing built into the world of Witcher 3 was better. It gave a bit more space to see and appreciate the world in a way that makes it feel more real and immersive. There was still plenty to do, but it wasn't like you were constantly tripping over new activities or enemies every few seconds in a way that can become too much. Limits on camera angles in BG3 affect this as well. Many times I've wanted to look up at a tower or towards some high point in the map and I literally can't because the camera won't let me. I know that is part of the isometric genre in some ways, but that detracts from immersion as well.

[@xLetalis]

well said, thank you

Romances in Baldur's gate 3 start very soon but they evolve and change over time. To be honest, it feels more realistic and dynamic this way than waiting 20 or 30 hours to find some advances like in some games

[@نونيم-ي4ح]

Sorry to hear about your daughter i prey to god that she gets better soon. As for the gaming side of things i used to have that problem but with mass effect trilogy, it was a very bad habit for me to compare every game to ME trilogy , but thankfully i got rid of that mindset after a while and started to appreciate games for what they were and what they had to offer, i think a good part of it me being more forgiving of a games flaws and appreciate its strengths, because lets be honest thats how we look at our favorite games, every game is a unique experience and every company has its own unique strengths and weaknesses and as a result i started to greatly appreciate gaming as a whole i recommend you to try something different or just take a break for a while you might get that spark back.

[@Vs-ub4tq]

I owe you countless hours of great memories and actual smiles through your videos. The thing that makes your videos stand out for me is not the content itself(which is amazing on itself) but rather how you interpret and add onto the content by you being there.

Entirely understandable. I played a lot in the first month, then got tired too, and only restarted with the release version. I greatly enjoy the new changes from early access: the Nautiloid prologue is much more streamlined, and the ability to change class and abilities at any time once you find a character early on means you can switch builds without having to restart the game. All that said, you do what appeals to you. I hope you enjoy BG 3 once you're ready, but whether to try it, and when the time is right, is a choice you know best for you. Best wishes for the channel and your play, whatever direction you take it :)

[@AdmiralBonetoPick]

If you're looking for new video content, perhaps you could go through book by book and point out all the references made to them in the games. For example, I am about halfway through Blood of Elves, and have already noticed a lot, from the dialogue of Lambert training Ciri on the Pendulum matching that in Geralt's dream in the game very closely ("With a flip?" "What do you think?" etc), to Triss telling Ciri that women apply cosmetics for their own satisfaction (said by Keira Metz to Geralt in the game).

[@stuartpurnell9148]

It is no exaggeration to say that you have given me hundreds of hours of thought provoking, hilarious, eye-opening and entertaining Witcher based discussion. I have played Witcher 3 for circa 500 hours and there are numerous paths/choices/cutscenes that i would never have have experienced without your diligent and, some might say, psychotic, deep dive into the Witcher 3. Your eye for detail, relentless dedication to your craft, and ability to spot something of interest is second to none. I can say, hand on heart, that my Witcher 3 experience would not be the same without you-and i mean that in the most positive way. Without you, it would be a poorer, simpler experience Please, never doubt your ability to entertain, educate and inform us of any mere morsel of lore which CDPR has tossed aside for us. You probably don't remember, but i responded to your vampires of Toussaint video by pointing out that the vampires symbol that was seen at the inn where they serve they crayfish chowder was also seen at the Witcher Moreau laboratory where Geralt gets attacked by 2 vampires, your 'love' of my comment meant so much for someone who basically doesn't comment very much on KZbin!. Thank you for making me felt seen and included in this community. Secondly, and most importantly, as the brother of two sisters who have learning severe/minor leaning difficulties i would say-please take as much time as you need, and give your daughter all the love and support she requires, which i know you will The ones you love most are by far the most important members of your life and you should dedicate all the necessary time time for her. I sincerely hope your daughter's condition improves and is manageable-i know you have the strength to take on this challenge. Take your time-however much you need.

I would like to share some small fact I noticed: in quest “without of trace” if you spare old couple and do not report to herbalist for a long time (I was making tousaint quests and later returned to report to him), old gran will die from hunger before you even report to herbalist. So in this case it doesnt matter if you tell herbalist the truth, no algouls will appear and no killings will happen). Maybe not new to you, but I thought all triggers appear after quest is finished, but here if you report too long, old couple will die by themselves. Also I noticed instead of body of appelrentice you will see body of the deer in storage which confirms they tried to eat other meat.

Thanks for the update and health to your family members! Last week I played Disco Elysium. It is a good game. Sure, it is very different from The Witcher; but I noticed one detail which is probably the best of what I've ever met: its sleep system. In Witcher you press "meditate" and in several seconds you are awake again. In Disco Elysium you have many thoughts before you "fall asleep", and it really changes the mood, relaxes and gives you a break (for example, to save the game and do other things).

[@jcorbett9620]

Don't worry about the uploads. I'm always happy to see a video from you and it's not an issue if you can't upload so often. Apart from anything else, health and family should always come first, I've met a few people who were blown out because they kept working, instead of slowing down, including one chap who'd had a stroke because of his work. In this case, it's not you personally, but your daughter who is infinitely more important than a random group of strangers on the internet, so that's a far higher priority for your time. Take it easy, put her first and come back when you can. True fans will still be here :D

[@niofo7713]

best wishes to your daughter! i hope she'll get better soon. i think it's very valid that you got burned out with bg3 after replaying it so many times in early access, it's hard to get excitement back when you just feel obligated to do something. it's a very good game, i'm playing it rn, but despite having only very minor issues with it i'm just unable to give it all my heart as i did with my fav game. i think it happens to most of us, after having this one game or franchise that hit exactly right nothing else feels quite as overwhelmingly interesting anymore.

Have fun and I wish you all the best!

[@RobertoDTavares]

What you could do in this context, akin to what a few streamers are already doing, is to gather a team and engage in group play. This would offer a distinct approach with less need for extensive evaluation. The overall gameplay is already feasible. The initial stages would be intriguing: witnessing a group of individuals partaking in cooperative play, led by someone with more experience. You can play it for enjoyment. I understand that playing is your job, but if you fail to convey a sense of enjoyment to those who watch you play, then you might as well not play at all.

[@LLPTV]

I love bg3 but it's been nagging me for awhile how off the conversations sound. Nobody really talks like that. Lot of exposition and let me tell you my lifestory, person who I just met. Like the characters can be fun and interesting but I've just found it tough to be fully immersed, to the point I often times just read the lines instead of letting the voice acting play out. Combat does get better once you hit level 5 and up. Having seen behind the smoke and mirrors of DoS2 combat (forced turn-taking, cheating ai, the issues you mentioned) it really puts into perspective how honest to it's ruleset bg3 stays.

[@Faikitty]

Glad to hear your daughter's health issues aren't life-threateningly serious but sorry to hear that she has to deal with a long-term issue so early in her life. I sincerely hope she's doing well. Take good care of her and the rest of your family - and yourself of course. I'll still be here no matter how often you upload, sending good vibes your way and rewatching old videos. Even if it's something I've seen before, sometimes it inspires me to try (and possibly discover) something new. My partner recently pointed out to me that for someone who isn't a content creator, I probably have enough game time in The Witcher 3 to rival some people who do it as their main thing. I just really enjoy the world and finding all the weird little things in it, whether that means interesting little tidbits of lore or fun and freaky ways to glitch the game. Since you brought it up, I'd also just like to say I'd definitely be interested in videos on the books. With the level of attention and detail you bring to the table, I have to imagine watching you do videos on the books would feel a lot like being back in school. I was a Spanish major in college and my literature classes were the most fun I've ever had in a classroom, which is really saying something because I'm a massive nerd.

[@GuitarGunner]

As a father and fellow KZbinr I completely understand where you're coming from. I haven't put out a video in over 6 months because I just have too much going on with work and family to spend 100's of hours editing videos. I've played about 100 hours into BG3 now and while I'm loving it, I find the combat extremely frustrating at times. It isn't until you're higher level that you really feel like you can leverage any sort of strategy. That being said I'm already planning my 2nd playthrough. I do enjoy your videos and I hope you keep doing what you're doing!

Originally I came to watch Witcher Videos, as I had just played W3 for the first time during the "lockdowns" ( I have a serious back catalog problem) and your vids are the reason I did 3 playthroughs at almost 2000 hrs, finding and trying all sorts of things. Over time I realized I happen to like your take on games/media, and think they're pretty fair. If there were reviews of other games that have been given some play time, would like to hear about them, of course if you discover that long lost "secret" from W3 that even the Developers forgot about, would like to hear about that too. Don't worry about how much you upload, spend time with your family, and everything else will be what it is. I'm sure most of us will be here to see whatever you post.

[@tiromandal6399]

So it's not just me who's kinda meh about BG3. Edit: 8:20! This is exactly what happened to me too! And apparently it's somewhat common. After playing TW3 I started to give up on games halfway through for the first time ever. Even for something as great as RDR2 which I eventually finished. And I think if not for my d riding of CDPR I wouldn't have completed Cyberpunk too. But once you get into it you'd figure out it's a real gem. Apart from TW3 (which my inner Alex Jones think was made by a race of intellectually and emotionally superior species who went back to their world after making it) the story of CP2077 is as good as it gets. It's got the same "even the side stories are better than most AAA games" thingy that CDPR is known for, the deep characters..specially Johnny Silverhand. Please forgive them for their mistakes and give it another try, it's a request from a SIMPle fan of yours Plamen.

[@BlackTearsYT]

I agree about the romance criticism. Companions seem to go from being a bit distrustful to begging to bone down with seemingly very little effort from the player. It's honestly a bit off putting at times. I know they want to give the player the flexibility to romance any companion and it's a part of character development that does draw the player in and fleshes out the companions, but it's just too much, too fast. It's comical at times. If I remember right, on the romance night, there are some instances where there's not really a good platonic dialog option if you talk to some people. Also, hopefully your daughter recovers quickly. I'm sure it's stressful and please take all the time away you need. Family first.

[@whisper_dvm5157]

I’m so sorry to hear about your daughter. I hope she feels better soon! As far as BG3, I spent 200 hours on my first playthrough. I love the game and have started 2 additional playthroughs since (Dark Urge and Astarion origin)- only like 10-15 hours into each of those but it’s crazy how much new content already there is. However with that said, it still doesn’t hold a candle to Witcher 3 or RDR2 in the way of story. I was completely emotionally invested in those games. I find there’s a disconnect for me with BG3 due to the silent protagonist. I know hard core rpg fans prefer it but I find it breaks my immersion. When the other characters are so wonderfully animated and voice acted and then the camera cuts to your character with this blank expression (or an over exaggerated one), it just such a stark contrast. However the game is just fun and silly with overall good storytelling even if it didn’t quite hit the emotional highs/lows I crave. I hope you enjoy the game because there will be so much content for you to explore as far as how the storylines interweave and the choices that change the story.

[@xLetalis]

oh yeah the awkward cuts to your character were another weird thing, they should've gone the DA: Origins route where those cuts simply don't happen

[@gergoretvari6373]

Your thoughts about The Witcher 3 ruining every other game for me made me think about my experience. I was 15 when it came out and i played on the very first day too. I remember how hyped i was (despite the fact that i only played the previous games 1 year prior because at that time everyone was talking about it, and i like to play new games if i played with the previous titles). I wasn't aware of the book's existence, so a few things were still a mystery too me, but when i first played the game i was amazed like never before, there wasn't any time where i said that i'm not in the mood to play the game, and after i played through the first time i felt completely empty (and after that it was at least 4 years until i played the expansions). I remember feeling yearning for more from the game, but i played through it already, so i naturally did replays. The thing is, after the game came out, i wasn't waiting to any other game to be released, by that i mean there weren't any games that i waited with much excitement like the Witcher 3. (LionheadStudio's soon shut down after that, and i was sad that no other Fable games would see the day.) Something changed, but i wasn't really sure what it was, maybe the game did ruin other games for me, or the fact that i was still developing as a teen. I thought to myself that no other game will hook me after the Witcher 3, but that wasn't really the case. While it's true that i had to give more chances to other games to fell in love with them, i think it's just time and the circumstances that made me feel different about any new games that i played. Otherwise i wouldn't be invested in the Dragon Age series and in Dark Souls. (both game needed at least a year and or a half for me to truly get invested in them). What i want to say is just take your time. From my experience time will change your mind about things. And after that you'll truly open your mind to new experiences. (If i wouldn't have convince myself to defeat Sloth in DA:O i wouldn't have experience all three games :) )

[@MrHulthen]

First of all, sorry to hear about your daughter - I hope she gets better soon! Secondly, creating interesting content for your channel isn't always that simple, especially for an older game that's been covered extensively - So i feel you on that. I've already gone through some growing pains these past few years that i've done KZbin myself. As you say, making videos requires you to be in a certain mindset and considering the health of your kid, i can absolutely relate to not being "in the headspace" of making stuff. That said, if i may be so bold - Since you're already interested in Baldur's Gate 3, i highly suggest you try out the Dark Urge origin because it mixes up the default playthrough by quite abit.This could certainly help out getting through Act 1 without feeling like you're retreading too much old ground. Alternatively, maybe you could look at making other "types" of content? Say, like talking head videos where you just discuss a certain topic/theory in the Witcher universe or something like that. Eh, there are tons of things you could do as long as you're interested in it, and i think it's safe to say that your core viewers are gonna wait patiently until you're ready. Take care man!

[@christinaac]

Don't worry about taking some time away from KZbin and in general social media. Health comes first, both for body and mind. And in general, I totally get what you say about Witcher "destroying" every other game. I compare it with everything too, and whenever I'm playing something else a small part of me wishes I was playing Witcher 3, even if what I play is good. Wish you a quick recovery for your daughter, and you take as much time as you want. Whatever you decide to do, I'm sure it'll be awesome😊💜!!!

Don't worry Letalis, every video of yours is most welcome, even if it's not often. Also, wishing your little one to get well soon!

[@marcospaulodasilva7624]

I can certainly understand this feeling, because despite loving RPG's and always looking for a new title to play, since I picked up The Witcher 3 no game has managed to generate the same level of satisfaction in me. And with several titles still in the development phase and without any notion of when we will actually be able to play them (The Witcher Remake, Dragon Age 4, Dragon's Dogma 2...) the only thing that remains is a certain discouragement and desire to stay only replaying TW3 a dozen more times. The only game that came even remotely close to satisfying me ended up being Assassin's Creed Odyssey, simply because I really liked Kassandra and because I've loved Greek mythology since I was a kid. But then, I also wonder why they don't just make an Odyssey 2 at once, too, since they keep showing new Kassandra appearances.haha

[@user-pc7ef5sb6x]

It's called the Early Access Burnout. When you play an early access game, by the time the actual game comes out, you've moved on. There's no more excitement left. This is why I don't buy early access because it ruins the experience.

[@richytheking1315]

Romance in Baldur’s Gate is actually fairly nuanced and complex, you just have to look at things a little differently. Sex is rarely if ever the culmination of a relationship, and is usually an introduction or a marker depending on the person. But in my experience the main point is always the growth of the character and how they have changed with you. Its really good but I hear that sometimes its not for everyone.

[@StueyMonster]

Firstly, props for no BG3 clickbate, when that's all I see these days (I'm 50 hours in and enjoying it). Secondly, any of you content is a must watch/listen for me, I trust your opinion implicitly! Lastly, do what you need to do, your fanbase is solid, we can wait. All the best. Stu.

[@dragonborn754]

Hope your daughter gets better soon! ❤ Lately there has been a lot of health issues with my family members as well, so I know how horrible it can be. Stay strong ❤ I'm sure she will be better soon! About comparing everything to the Witcher 3... I think I do the same thing. Ever since the Witcher 3 I never played a game for the story. Because it just can't and won't be as good. (Except Skyrim maybe but that's for nostalgia and the mods. And I downloaded Geralt as a follower there, so that says something 💀) I don't know what can be done about that. I guess I just put everything aside and try to enjoy the game for what it is. But tbh I'd rather just read the witcher books instead of playing a bad game. 😅 I want you to know whatever you do, we will support you. ❤ You are my favourite youtuber, you made me replay this amazing game again and again and your high quality, funny and interesting videos were able to take my mind away from all the trouble going on in my life. So for that, I thank you. Whatever you decide to do, we will be here to support you. ❤ And by all means, do what is best for YOU! You matter!

[@astrojeet]

This is exactly why I did only 2 playthroughs of BG3 early access. As for the combat the game gets way better from ACT 2, ACT 1 is only till level 5 in the early access and there isn't as many varying encounters imo, but later acts definitely remedy this. It is much more enjoyable. Also it is probably more fun in Co-op. Also i have no bloody idea about the game being edgy, play the full damn game first. It's not the witcher 3 but it has some great writing similar to classic Bioware games. I hope your daughter gets better, it is really unfortunate to hear about her health.

[@biornr.4031]

I get the criticisms of bg3. I enjoy the game on my first run, but your critique rings true to me. I basically ended up savescumming combat in bg3, which I didn't even consider in divinity 2. Saving when one of my plans work out more or less, or reloading, if I get bs dicerolls a few turns in a row. In real life, we can laugh at it and work arojnd it, but here it kinda feels even more stupid than the infamous xcom missing on a 99% hit chance. My choice of romance threw themselves at me in act 1, barely recognised my existence in act 2, and feel pretty decent in act 3. Speaking of act 3, there is a lot of narrative pressure on you to hurry up, even though I had just spent the last 60 odd hours hoping to just kick back and vibe for at least a moment, when I finally got to the city (And I hope your child gets better)

[@bendova_smith]

Whatever kind of content you end up making -- I know I and many others will be here for it, regardless of time between videos. Take care of yourself and your family, that's what comes first.

[@AbiRizky]

Hope your family is doing okay! Just a personal note though, please don't quit KZbin. I still need that occasional "BUT (then shot goes to tomira for a few seconds)" and your favorite kind of magic too heheh

[@svchoster]

Huge fan of your W3 videos! Newbie to BG3, but one thing I think it improves over W3 is dialog choices. Every conversation in BG3 feels like defusing a bomb, whereas most W3 conversations are either minimum conversation to move the quest along, or optional extra detail.

[@saladinbob]

I know precisely how you feel about just not getting into BG3. I played it a lot in early access and I thought it was one of the worst games I've ever had the displeasure to play. The idea of standing there for hours, swing/miss, swing/miss, cast spell/miss, cast spell/miss ad nauseum put me off it so much I uninstalled it. It isn't fit to stand in _The Witcher 3's_ shadow. What makes a good TT game does not make for a good video game. They're different beasts. P.S. Hope your daughter gets well soon.

[@liorberes]

How is this boring? :) We care about you so at least for me it was very interesting ❤ I've been away because all your recent videos have been about the "wonderful" Netflix show, which I haven't watched yet because my boyfriend is still reading book number 3 and I don't wanna ruin it for him haha. So I'll only watch the series much later, and then also all your videos of course :) I do believe you mentioned something about your daughter's health issues before and I hope she will get better and well soon. It's completely understandable that your motivation is lower right now. Just a question - sorry if I've asked it before - have you tried playing Red Dead Redemption? I'm not sure if you would like it because it's a lot less "gamey" and much more story-focused. It also has less plot branches I believe than the Witcher, it's more like watching a movie. But the story itself is very good and very grounded (as you said), human and relatable. And the open world has many interesting details and things to explore and discover. Would love watching a live stream of you playing it if you ever consider that!

[@xLetalis]

Hey there :) Thanks for the comemnt and sadly I've never played anyther of the RDD games

[@liorberes]

@@xLetalis time to try then if you have a moment 😄 It's also good as chronologically the newer game comes first (rdr2 happens before rdr1), so there's no need to go back to the original to begin. I really recommend it also regardless of your channel/content. Just for fun.

[@Mark-kr5go]

I really feel you on WoW man. It's a game so many of us grew up with and have so many cherished memories of. And so many of us have been forced the close the cover on that book permanently. I enjoyed your SWTOR content too, but that game has also gone the way of life support over the last half decade. And Baldur's Gate 3? It is a good game that needs more time in the cooker. Maybe another year if they want to fulfill the sort of experience they sold us on. The evil path is completely lacking, with many choices existing as simple illusions. Of course, it's still in a whole other class above Cyberpunk 2077. There just haven't been a whole lot of good choice driven single player RPGs in recent years...

[@allhopeabandon7831]

You've been the people's voice for the greatness of The Witcher 3 for 7 years...I've been here the whole time. Take the time you need, and we will all be here waiting for Witcher content when the new game drops, a couple years in the future, and after all is well with your family. Your daughter will be in our thoughts and prayers.

[@Zey092]

I hope your daughter gets well soon... I know some child illnesses occure around those ages but generally they recover by the time goes. Take your time but I hope you don't quit YT.. (as far as I remember you also played Mass Effect series so you may wanna check Starfield out, no pressure tho) Wish you da best!

[@FinalConsensus]

Take care of what you need to. I see this channel as primarily Witcher content and we are currently in a hiatus until the Witcher 1 Remake comes out. So if you prioritize family health until then no one would blame you :)

[@shyronnye8867]

the music slowly changging while he started talking of cyberpunk is just perfect

[@crzyces1693]

Dude, the game is so, so different. The first chapter is way, way better, especially with the Nautaloid being really quick, getting you right into the game proper. I felt the same way about the burnout, but the changes are so, so deep my reservations were gone within 30 minutes. Literally. Seriously, it's the same game, but at the same time, wicked different. I'd also recommend starting on Explorer mode for the beginning of Act 1 (the first hour or so) then switch all the way up to tactician, then drop to adventurer for the Goblin camp and just leave it there for the rest of the game unless there is a battle that just keeps wrecking you. As for your kid, I certainly wish you the best. Nothing is more important than your children, so just do your best. As for BG3, I really believe you will have a change of heart when you see how many things in the game are completely different and/or streamlined/just done better in the final release. Even the giant mob fights have been _trimmed_ down. It was like Larian used Early Access to see what people's systems *and* psyches could handle, and 35 enemy fights were one of the things that got left on the cutting room floor. Seriously, give it a go when you feel up to it. To say you'll be pleasantly surprised is probably a drastic understatement. Btw, I am 170+ hours into my first real playthrough after having over 200 in Early Access. They got me right off the rip by making the nautiloid section a very quick tutorial as opposed to a tedious journey.

[@makiimark]

It's sad to say this man, but I feel the same way about the witcher. It was so good in so many ways back in the day and even today, that I don't want to play regular games anymore. I want that stuff that kick me hard, kick me hard in the heart. I don't think that is something bad, infact the Witcher showed me what I really want in my (gaming)life. Deep memorable experiences packed full with love and passion. I pray for a world, not just a gaming world, where we all experience just that!!!

[@bakinglycalm]

I would watch the heck out of a series about the witcher books!! I hope your daughter feels better soon and wish you and your family all the best! KZbin, social media and new games will all still be there whenever you're ready for them again.

[@alittlecreepywhenyou]

Recently, I'd been wondering this myself. Moreso about the Witcher 3 content perspective but...yeah. Edit: It's okay, my friend. Take care of your little one, XL. We all understand and support you.

[@flingymingy]

Agree about baldurs gate. Much prefer divinity, SO much RNG spoils it in a video game format, really annoying for me.

[@edgarroberto3451]

I am so sorry about your daughter, i hope she will get better real soon. I know it is so hard for you but please dont give up on youtube. Following you for years now and i wish all the happiness for you and your family.

[@GiuseppeSan]

Take all the time you need. Family comes first. We're all grateful for all you've given to the community.

[@jmtbezimienny5390]

Bruh It is obvious that you won't find as many new things now in W3 since you uncovered BASICALLY ALL OF THEM. I also hope your daughter will get better. Don't push yourself We will be waiting for your next video, no matter if it's gonna be about W3, Cyberpunk or BaldursGate 3. Love from Poland❤

[@dimitri4457]

Geralt would care less about being a Witcher if Ciri needed him. Take care of your Ciri!

[@AntimonySchnuck]

I actually checked in just now because I'm looking for a BG3 Let'sPlay and thought "man it would be awsome if..." :') Just wishing all the best, don't additionally stress yourself on behalf of us sometimes pushy internet strangers. If you want a small game for in between that's all charme, whimsicalness and Doug Cockle's voice, let me recommend Tails of Iron - I mean just for playing, not as a Let's Play. To me it's like another Witcher game, but a picture book of Ciri's.

[@Philipp2968]

First I really wish you and your family all the best. Second about Star Wars The Old Republic, I think the game is still great and I still play it a lot especially recently. And the support and updates for the game didn’t stop. It just moves to another studio but takes most of the old programmers and writers with it as far as I know. And the story will still be continued. (Btw I would love a remake of SWTOR with an Witcher 3 like fighting system but the stories and so on remain the same. Maybe even as a single player RPG). Third about The Witcher 3, I think that you can still make quite a lot of good content with it and you could maybe make more videos about The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 1 (even though you one said that you never finished it. Maybe it’s time to do before the remake comes out) Finally I would love to see Witcher lore videos from you about the books and the games because there are not much good Witcher lore channels that are really trustworthy or good in terms of canon fitting lore interpretations. I love your videos and wish you all the best.

[@Bigby-von-Wolfburg]

First of all, family comes first! I hope things will turn out for the better for you and I wish your daughter recovers as soon as possible. Second, regarding BG3: it is not a bad game! BUT, it is not for everyone. I have been playing ttrpgs for over 15 years now, and I have to say that I like the system of DnD the least of all the ones I have tried. I rarely play DnD at all nowadays, instead I gm 2 One Ring campaigns and soon we will start Cyberpunk RED. The main reason why I do not play DnD that much lately is that I do not really like the setting at all. It can be over the top in a negative way and over the years I got to know myself regarding rpgs. I just better like more grounded settings that carry a sense of "realism". For my group the bounds of the world actually do wonders, instead of power levelling and doing basically godly things (DnD is broken at high level). Of course some of these aspects are up to the dm. So here is my one cent, despite the merits of BG3 it is still not for everyone, and I can see that it is a super game, yet I can't enjoy it that much. So, I understand Mr. Letalis. Best wishes to you!

[@TimvanderLeeuw]

Hey man, Best wishes for your daughter's health. Wishing you and your whole family all the best with that. About games, Witcher 3 remains my favourite game as well and only Kingdom Come: Deliverance got me really as excited. I did also like Divinity Original Sin a lot but never completed it and it was never as varied a world to just wonder around in... While I also never finished KC:D yet, that game did at least give me a world that I enjoyed just being in, wondering around in, just like Witcher 3. I still have to start on CyberPunk2077. My initial reaction after release was similar to yours: disappointed after the hype. But I will play it eventually. I do look forward to new Witcher games and Witcher 1 remake but I don't want to get my hopes up for these games, so not to be disappointed again. A wait-and-see for me! Right, back to Witcher 3... 😄

[@tarasnalieskin9383]

I wish your daughter all the best! Hope that you and your family will overcome all the difficulties. Keep your KZbin activity with your own pace. I'm sure we'll still enjoy any kind of content from you!

[@Blightsteel0Collosus]

I started watching you when i started with W3, and as I´ve watched your videos, i grew to like your channel alltogether. Family is on the priority ALWAYS, keep it that way, never force yourself into making videos. I will nontheless keep my support for your channel and I hope everything will take on brighter light soon! Best of luck!

[@lesliekilgore648]

Letalis, my best wishes and hopes for you and your littlest daughter... as well as all your family! i found you due to your excellent Witcher 3 content and i've continued to love your voice, your opinions, and your dedication digging around and showing me your thoughts on everything Witcher related. i get it, Real Life does draw one's creative fire and drive away from this digital reality online, on TV shows, and in games... and pulls one back to Earth quite suddenly. another YT content creator i've enjoyed for years PlatinumEquinox had to step back from video productions on another franchise i love dearly, the TV anime Bleach. once more RL strikes again with a creative i enjoy following. unfortunately, this was right before Bleach returned to Japanese TV after a hiatus from 2012-2022. i've taken many setbacks in the past few years and i no longer have the financial resources (or equipment) to pick the PC games i love the best and lavish them with time and attention. so, i feel your pain at attempting to enjoy a game you've anticipated but been let down by. i've now had to vicariously enjoy Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Mirage here on YT as well as Spider-Man 2018 and Miles Morales and Cyberpunk pre and post Phantom Liberty... i'll have to enjoy Spidey 2 on YT as well as anything else Ubisoft creates for the Assassin's franchise or CDPR fashions in the foreseeable future. never worry, i've got several of your vids (and other folks on YT too!) lined up for watching as i catch back up with your (and their) works. do your best my good online friend! cherish your family and friends and when the itch bites you, and the fires of creativity are stoked into a roaring blaze again... i'll keep an eye out for your light and visit with your warmth again!

[@Novskyy621]

You're so right when it comes to BG3! I feel the same, i'm 60 hours into it and just barely started act 2 and i already feel kinda burnt out from the gameplay because it got pretty easy pretty fast (if you have the right build and team) and the entire combat feels pretty redundant. I also reload A LOT only to get certain dialogue options sucessfully passed... The RNG is TOO much i think. You can be the baddest mf but still fail... then you just reload the save and it works. But especially for combat its really bad... While i love the game i'm also kinda happy that somebody pointed out some issues with the game

[@emmabovard6289]

Wherever your career goes from here, just know that you will always be a legend in the Witcher community and many others. I have greatly enjoyed your videos over the years, and hope to see more some day. Thank you :)

[@alexandreborbely9889]

I hope your daughter gets better soon! Recently, my daughter was diagnosed with autism specter, and it has been really hard to have some time to play a little or even watch some videos here. Your videos always make me relax in this stressful environment I am in, so thank you! I hope some comments at least make you feel more relaxed as well. After all, keeping your sanity and morale up is important to fight whatever situation the world throws at you.

[@Fenet2000]

I absolutely feel that emptyness where you cannot get hyped for anything new... I have been insanely hyped for Dragon Age: Dreadwolf for years now, since Inquisition was the game that got me into RPGs in the first place. And Yeah... Just today BioWare announced that they will fire more employees, which hits hard after so many delays and really makes me very concerned if we will even get a decent game

[@danielsfetcu9141]

Don't worry about us, Letalis. We will be here. Family first. Hope she feels better soon. Regarding games, for me, even if it is a bit janky, I played a lot of Elex 1. No time currently for Elex 2.

I like your channel a lot, you have done so much regarding witcher 3 lore. I think you've more than deserve to take a little time for yourself. Maybe in five years when the next witcher game is released, you'll return, and we all go: "It's him. He's returned".

[@denijane89]

I think TW3 has ruined our game experience forever. I just played 100h of Skyrim this month. It was fun but somehow, it's always lacking. Because you cannot compare it to how interconnected TW3 world was, how story driven and how everything was so much better designed. It's just an amazing experience. I envy everyone who is just starting it. On the other note - it's normal to feel exhausted if your daughter is not ok. You don't need to appologize. Family comes first.

[@SX12C]

I always love watching your uploads and would hate for them do be rushed or done just because "I need to publish something" so for me, take as long as you need to keep that up also all the best wishes to your daughter, you and your family!!

[@Tallborn5]

I know what you mean being burned out of the Act1 (played it only for 60 hours though)and I knew a lot about it but trust me give it a try they changed a few things in it plus a new zone (the Creche one) and once you get to Act2 you will be hooked. Best game in years that I have played and earned so far a place in my top5, still didn't dethrone my favourite Dragon Age Origins (Bioware pls make a remaster). All the best for your daughter and family.
