Syd, I think the potion may just be the strong alcohol!  The blue eyes quest, I saved my game just before each decision so I could go back and see the differences. So I've seen several different scenarios. This time, I just have to decided on a different one that I chose last time! I'd really love to hear everyones thoughts on this quest! Thaler getting killed...you saw the argument between him and Count DeWitt? Your decision made the difference. Tricky huh? Oh Nickie, you're calling him Wolf already? Hmmm you're hooked alright!  Don't worry, Geralt will be waiting for you when you get back! Notice I didn't say waiting faithfully?

Are you talking about Carmen? If so....yes, I think it payed off because of the party. I thought she was cheaper then 500 orens, but honestly don't remember except that I did a quest for her FIRST and maybe I remember her giving me a 'discount'. Thaler didn't get killed on me either, but maybe it has to do with whether or not you accused him or someone else on the suspect list of being guilty during your investigation. I decided to believe everyone and it turned out rather well. Other then that I really don't know. Looney - You answered before I finished posting. I missed something somewhere. Who's Count DeWitt???? P.S. Sorry for the stupid answer I gave above  . You guys were talking about chapter 3 and I was speaking about chapter 2. Now I know what's going on  .

Just an FYI for those looking for the earlier patches. There is a difference between 1.1 and 1.1a; 1.1a being the more recent of the two and the one that both Looney and I are using (I think  ). Also, your theories about Geralt make sense. I had thought that about him as well because... ...as he advances levels a couple of his higher powers only work at night. That and all the other clues that folks mentioned earlier spelled it out for me; 2+2=Undead

In answer to your question Mad....There's NEVER enough margaritas and if a reason is needed I guess "because I'm still breathing" is good enough. Cheers and Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of you! And...Milee reminded me, I just didn't think about the anti-aliasing, and lowered that. So, for now the game is running well. But it will still be great to have the patches, and probably any minute I'll crash. But for now, bliss. Oh, and Looney - there's just hussies everywhere throwing themselves at poor Wolf - what's a witcher to do!

Happy New Year fellow witchers.
As to Thaler and DeWitt I don't remember seeing them argue at all. After I left the party I think I went back to the inn and started the hunt for blue eyes quest. I was coming back to the inn from my first meeting with said blue eyes and there were a bunch of soldiers attacking him. I think I mumbled something about not getting involved because it was political and just stood there and watched them kill him. That was all out of my control - I sort of went on auto pilot. Must have been something I said or did at the party that triggered it - beats me but in any case I got a book and something else off his body. Guess we'll see if it changes the story for me in any way.

Happy New Year to all Witchers. I'm not so happy  Something has gone wrong in my game (Well, I've done something wrong in the game) Alvin is now staying with the Reverend. Woke his nibs up to ask what was happening. He said collect the villagers together and then they will attack Abigail. Was given his ring to show the people to make them fight but I'd already given the beggar a bottle of White Gull to obtain it - the only way I could get the key to the crypt. So how do I get back on Abigail's side? Milee, what do you mean that I can use the power point rituals once or twice a day? Use them for what? Oh boy, am I dumb.  Am also hungry - be back next year

You're not dumb in the least sweetie. There's just a heck of a lot to learn about this game, and I mean that in a good way. As far as the power ups - you have to select the ability for each Sign at each level. Just like the flaming sword for your fighting with the sword, the power ups make the strike with the Sign more powerful. You right click and hold on an opponent,releasing when it is powered up (mid way on the power line). As for your other question, not sure since my game is playing out very differently, but perhaps just talking to her would work. As the story plays out, she'll be in a different location than her hut. As for me, got to where he fights the beast and it went into slow motion and crashed, arggh.

Alice, I'm on my second play in the game and I still haven't figured out those blue Places of Power! I just go stand in them and select the perform the ritual of magic, but nothing ever happens. This time around Kalkstein did give me something that lets me transport back to his labratory if I stand in one. It's helped me get out of the sewers a couple of times!
And you will have plenty of time later to pick whose side you are on with Abigale. This time I picked Abigale's side.

Hi  When I go and click on those Places of Power, I am only offered "perform a ritual of magic" but if do use that, I get heightened power added to one of my signs .... the Aard one, I think  Cheers. Mad. Who is enjoying (still only first play of the game) questing in Chapter Four right now

Thanks to all for your help.
Nickie - should the ritual sign be on my belt like the Aard sign?
Wish real life would not interfere - must get a few of MY chores done before my personal earthly Angel arrives for work tomorrow.
Be back - that is a certainty.
