God, I love these posts.
This post is pure unfiltered 100% awesome! I find I’m frequently having anxiety attacks these days because of… <gestures at everything>, but reading this massive in-depth writeup, just letting me soak in a hobby I love but don’t have much time for as I’d like, has relaxed me more than anything has in months. Thank you so much! 🙏 I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for these in the future!

Game devs been reading Use of Weapons, I guess.
There he is! Hey, big shooter!
It’s a reference to an X-Files episode, one of the few where they swapped out the ‘Trust No One’ text in the opening credits.
BUT… I like the way you think!
Deceive. Inveigle. Obfuscate.
(That’s a deep cut, wonder if anyone got it.)
Yeah I’m glad it’s not a vital part of the experience but don’t mind that it’s there for people who like it. Kind of like card games in real life. :)
I do not understand this at all… but I respect it.
Am I the only one that avoids Gwent altogether when playing Witcher? Like, I don’t go to that world to play cards, if I’m loading it up it’s cause it’s swords and magic time.
Badowm badowm badowm boooooowm!
Do you want Shai’halud? Because this is how you get Shai’halud.
I can guarantee you have put way more thought into this than he ever has, or will.
