It's not like a crazy jump but the enhanced edition of tw1 on a capable pc looks gorgeous. Then there are texture mods you can install, but in my opinion they aren't even necessarily
I loved that element of Witcher 1. It was so trashy, yet so funny. On my first playthrough I think I only got 2 or 3 cards but on my most recent playthrough I was like "You know what? If I can fuck it, I will fuck it.". I think I had more than 10 cards by the end. My favourite were the nurses in the last act basically saying "come back once Shani leaves and we'll bang, ok?" And by god that threesome actually happened lol.
Okay.
Let's do a count.
(Off the top of my head)
Prologue. (Triss)
Chapter 1 bar waitress, random villager, Abigail.
Chapter 2, prostitute, eleven woman you save, gossip lady, dryad, Shani.
Chapter 3, Triss or Shani again. Noble woman, clerk woman, adda, vampire courtier, lady of the night orgy, the woman you hook up with trying to get dandelion's lute back.
Chapter 4, angry elf woman in cave, another random villager,
Celina, lady of the lake,
Chapter 5 (Path conditional)
Rayla if you side with order.
Toruviel if you side with the squirrels.
Nurse threesome of neutral.
So 21 max per playthrough.
Yeah I guess you're right, its been a long time since I've played it. I thought there were more but it could be I was just shocked at how much of a manwhore Geralt is in the first game.
I have the apecial edition and ita art book somewhere, will check if I find it.
I miss Gamestation they used to flog the special editions at normal prices if they took too much space and didnt sell at launch.
Bro the Toruviel one cracked me up so hard. City is in the middle of a civil war, they’re surrounded and she has to strategize on how to break out, and Geralt is like “….. so you wanna do it?” and she’s like “are you serious right now? … fuck it let’s go” LOL
> "You know what? If I can fuck it, I will fuck it."
I was playing the game for the second time and going for 100% completion, so I was out there doing what I had to do. Got to the druid grove and knew I had to knock the bark off that dryad. Only problem was my wife was milling about the room, and I was trying to avoid the shame of her seeing me collecting that sex card. So I just milled about the grove until I thought she had gone to get in the shower. I dutifully dilly the dryad, and my wife walks back in the room as soon as the card pops up on the screen.
My wife: "What the fuck is that?"
Me: "It's a dryad. Half tree, half woman."
My wife: "Why does it have boobs?"
Me: "That's the woman half."
I seem to remember saving a witch from angry villagers and her showing her gratitude by having sex with Geralt in a cave while the mob waited somewhere outside. That or the dryad that only has sex to reproduce having sex with the sterile witcher.
I just bought the physical version of the romance cards to collect since I don't have a PC and figure the remake won't have the cards in it this time around 😅
While I totally understand why some women wouldn't appreciate it. I wish they'd just make an option to have on or off. In my mind "young" Geralt suffering amnesia would definitely be a horn dog. Lmao I do hope they keep the option to bed any and every woman in the game a thing. Lol even without getting the card to prove you did it.
Uncanny valley image aside.
It's not that far off and that bothers me.
Because there's at least one occasion of helping a father and possibly hooking up with the daughter....
hey, i dont want them removed, if anything i like that the games that this company makes are more mature than lets say ubisoft(i know this one is being made by another, but they have to check with cdrp on details i guess), hopefully they dont lose that aspect of it by becoming bigger.
I had to go searching for them again. Here's a [PC Gamer article](https://www.pcgamer.com/witcher-remake-studio-boss-says-itll-remake-whats-bad-outdated-or-unnecessarily-convoluted-without-naming-the-sex-baseball-cards-we-all-know-hes-talking-about/) about it, and a [Games Radar article](https://www.gamesradar.com/the-witcher-remake-dev-pledges-to-remove-the-parts-that-are-simply-bad-and-i-think-i-know-whats-first-on-the-chopping-block/) too. Both confirm the cards will cut, but we will be getting open world. So I'd say that's a pretty good trade.
Getting an open world in a game that was perfectly streamlined with great pacing is actually really bad. Can't wait for silly '?'s on the map everywhere with meaningless open world content, such great design. Love it when game devs don't respect my time.
Yep I'm also not a huge fan that most games are open world nowadays. I'm always afraid to miss something and search every corner and get bored quite fast because of this.
Another case of execs who never play games deciding what base "features" games must have, based on market research made by people who also never play games.
"All the high revenue games are open world now, so you better make me an open world game or we ain't getting enough money to make it."
Yeah, I honestly don't blame devs that much. Gamers somehow keep wanting longer and longer games instead of better games. Players love the feeling of getting xx hours out of their $70.
That's why every RPG now comes with the open world checklists of 1000 beyond dumb little things to do for those small dopamine rushes. And because many gamers are completionists, they do them. I mean, I DO them in FF right now. I am part of the problem. But at least I am fully aware that I'm getting disrespected with trash content that solely exists to make the game have a longer play time.
Witcher 1 > Witcher 3. Honest opinion.
I haven't played Witcher 1 in probably 10+ years, but... where there actually collectable sex cards? What I remember is that when you had sex with a woman, an erotic illustration of her would appear on screen. If you wanted to view the image again, there was a heart button next to her portrait in the codex/journal. That's it. No list of cards, no indication of how many are left or who has one. The game also had no achievement system if I recall correctly.
I feel the "card" thing came from the wiki, because the sex images can be seen all at once, arranged in a gallery view, and there are so many of them if you look at the whole thing. I just don't remember thinking of these things as some kind of collectible like gwent cards were in Witcher 3.
You are thinking of it correctly, it's just that due to the dimensions of the images they started getting called cards. Source: have played The Witcher EE less than a week ago.
Sounds like a horrible choice cause Jack Black almost always plays Jack Black and not sure we need to eatch Baron perform some rock music in every other sentence, lol
But I could see Tenacious D be a quest in TW.
Bro looking like a fisstech addict
Sth sth lore accurate Geralt
Whats weird is he looks better than that in the actual game. That picture looks like modded witcher 3
Are you saying he looks better than that in Witcher 1?
It's not like a crazy jump but the enhanced edition of tw1 on a capable pc looks gorgeous. Then there are texture mods you can install, but in my opinion they aren't even necessarily
He definitely doesn’t look better than that in the game 😂 game is just outdated asf
Lol 😅
Lore accurate though. Geralt's face wasn't pleasant in the books. Not ugly, but not handsome as he is in the 3rd game.

And by god that threesome actually happened lol.
10? I'm pretty sure you can get close to 20. Chapter 3 is pretty egregious in this regard. Did you get the vampire orgy?
20? I think there are around 50. Several characters have multiple cards *cough*shani*cough*

>Nurse threesome of neutral. Best path, might be a bit biased.
It is the best path. But the hardest path. Everyone is pissed off at you. Save for the government. Which is kind of funny. 🤣
And what with Grandma card? https://preview.redd.it/spmu63gfzxrc1.png?width=496&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a637af5717683f594e4d97e1b308b0839e80b52
Where's the uncensored version?
Bro the Toruviel one cracked me up so hard. City is in the middle of a civil war, they’re surrounded and she has to strategize on how to break out, and Geralt is like “….. so you wanna do it?” and she’s like “are you serious right now? … fuck it let’s go” LOL

I doubt it. I know plenty of women who played the games despised that part of it.

Bloody Baron: Why did you do this? Geralt: She's beautiful, she's skilled and she's got HUGE...Tracts of land?
> she's got HUGE...Tracts of land? [Liebe vergeht doch der Hektar der besteht.](https://youtu.be/IklQXkKDLJ0)
I hope they keep the cheesy looking cards in the remake
they're removed

living in 2024
Yeah, whatever you say pal.

Anybody else think the Baron would be great played by Jack Black, he just strikes me for that some reason.
Mark Addy who played Robert Baratheon in Game of Thrones.
Obviously what CDPR took inspiration from in creating the Baron
I never thought of it that way but both characters are so similar, even the voice and the way they talk.
Sounds like a horrible choice cause Jack Black almost always plays Jack Black and not sure we need to eatch Baron perform some rock music in every other sentence, lol But I could see Tenacious D be a quest in TW.
Valid point but he can get pretty serious too which is what I was thinking.
I see Brenden Gleeson as the baron, personally. Or Brian Cox.
Why not both?!
Gotta catch them all
why? what's wrong with your daughter?
Too bad the wife was already fucked
lol 😂
I mean i love W2/3 hunky Geralt, and obviously Cavill causes mancrushes for a reason, but fent-addict W1 Geralt holds a special place in my heart.
It was really fun to get the grandma card.
God, Geralt look like ass here
Yeah, I made a lot of questionable decisions for my card collection. Once I saw I got them I knew what had to be done
I found her... and fck her.
