    Not gonna lie, I almost literally rolled on the floor laughing at CDPR's solution for the annoying bridge. As a programmer by profession, it was cathartic to see what one might call a "lazy programmer" solution for the problem. Edit: For some of the people who don't seem to get it, I'm praising CDPR for the simplistic solution, not admonishing them. Some commenters just suck the joy out of everything.

    Hell yeah. I'm so glad that they fixed fall damage. My biggest gripe with the game (which was still small) was that I would routinely walk off of rocks which looked to be about 3 feet high, only for Geralt to stumble and take fall damage. For someone with augmented agility and strength it's super weird for him to struggle with something I can easily do in real life. Also the new map marker is awesome. I'm glad they made a way for it to make sense in game.

It'll help us know exactly which mods have been integrated and which ones we can take out of our modlists. That's really cool.

    Another thing that they fixed is the game can now run at up to your monitor's refresh rate with V-Sync enabled instead of being locked to either 30 or 60FPS. I personally use it in most of my games because I don't see why my GPU needs to use its full power to render menus at 200+FPS. Also don't bother enabling ray-tracing on RX 6000 or RTX 2000 series GPUS. I got 30 FPS at 1440p with FSR set to Quality (35FPS with FSR Balanced) on an RX 6700XT during the tutorial at Kaer Morhen, which is one of the easier scenes to run.

    Nice to know, thx mate! And its good that they chose to deal with the Baron Travel Post in that way. I had some modded in there before and fortunately they got deactivated when needed, so that they wouldnt interfere with quest triggers. Still seems i'll be missing some of them, like the one at Hattoris or the one IN Kaer Morhen aswell as the additional and moved Chests, but we'll see if and how those mods work. I Love that they addressed the issues with the swords, making them useful and "legendary or godkilling". The Bridge Update..well its a bit lazy to just fix the bridge, but i guess its better than nothing and show that they've listened.

I just thought it was odd was all nothing too annoying but nonetheless I am glad they chose to simply fix the bridge, much better that way.

(Very well done, btw) Any info on whether they fixed Ves showing up even though she's dead? Or if they changed the flags so you can't still get it? I understand that video took a lot of work on your part, so I totally understand if you're not willing to go through all that again; but I'd love to know if they addressed that at all. And yes, frankly, I don't want to test it all myself lol 😆 Again, I don't expect you to put in all that work just to satiate my curiosity. But I'm sure many people would be interested in knowing if it was touched on in this round of patches.

    my biggest issue with WItcher 3 has always been the lack of level scaling for quests. Sure, you can enable it for enemies, but quests should scale as well (only up from their original level, obviously). There's so much stuff to do that I always felt like I was missing out on multiple quests because I was simply overlevelled for them, and as a result, for their rewards. AC Odyssey did it right - you have an option to scale everything up to your level or 1-2 levels below it if you wish
