Feline / Cat School Gear - Quests - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Maps | witcher cat school gearUntil The Witcher 2, I’d never played a bold area characters absolutely looked like they were cutting clothing. Of advance bold characters aren’t usually naked; they’re fatigued or modeled with a beautiful everyman hoodie or blinged out ability suit. But that accouterment never acquainted like article the appearance was wearing; it consistently seemed too form-fitting, like an inseparable allotment of the appearance model. Aback Mario switches from his dejected to red overalls with a fire-flower pick-up, it doesn’t assume like he’s alteration his wardrobe. His absolute appearance architecture is alteration in an instant.
Then I played The Witcher 2. The Witcher 2 has absolute accouterment and armor: it looks layered, chunky, with bond and apery and creamy collars. Accoutrement straps bisect alloyed fabrics which awning blubbery chainmail. At the time, I was wowed by the graphical detail, but that was about it. Now, afterwards three months and 85 hours invested in The Witcher 3, I can’t stop cerebration about how abundant Geralt’s vast, evolving apparel is. Geralt’s armor is alike added abundant and assorted than in The Witcher 2, but I came to acknowledge it for added than looks.
Geralt’s accouterment in The Witcher 3 helps advertise the actuality of the apple and the epic, months- and miles-spanning adventure it has to tell. If you’d told me three months ago that I’d accomplishment The Witcher 3 and reflect added on its armor than its ending, I would’ve been skeptical. But actuality we are.
I acclimated to get a little adventure out of RPGs, mostly Japanese RPGs, that absolutely showed my appearance cutting the new armor or wielding the new brand I’d begin in the aftermost abundance chest. Seeing that new accessories contributed abundantly to the faculty of progression over dozens of hours, authoritative new armor added cogent than a bald carbon boost. It was a attenuate thing: best amateur ashore with a changeless appearance architecture for the duration, or alone afflicted what the characters were cutting at key anecdotal moments. Alike as avant-garde 3D amateur fabricated altered armor models beneath novel, I enjoyed them as symbols of progress: in Oblivion, I switched to the awkward third-person camera for a brace hours anniversary time I crafted a new armor set (the Daedric armor was acutely the best).
The Witcher 3 added thoroughly integrates accouterment into its progression arc and its anecdotal than any added RPG I’ve played. As rewards for commutual quests, exploring the world, and accession crafting diagrams, anniversary new allotment of armor is lusciously detailed. Witcher 3’s gambesons and brigandines are the big-budget, artists-gone-wild descendents of those little pixelated chestpieces and helms I acclimated to abase over.
CD Projekt Red’s artists appearance a altered aptitude for axis absolute bolt into natural-looking agenda textures. Layering is the key, as any hip San Franciscan with a checkerboard button down, hoodie, coat, and cashmere bandage will acquaint you. Best amateur don’t do a abundant job of this. Let’s attending at Skyrim as an archetype from a few years ago.

Mastercrafted Cat Feline Gear | The Witcher 3 | witcher cat school gearOn the larboard is Skyrim’s ablaze accoutrement armor, and on the appropriate is the Stormcloak armor. I anticipate both are air-conditioned designs, and Bethesda’s artists acclimated some acute texturing to aback the altered pieces of bolt meant to accomplish up anniversary allotment of armor. But you can see how the layers don’t feel actual three dimensional. Outside the accoutrement armor’s pauldrons, the actual mostly looks flat, abnormally the straps forth his thighs. Darker concealment about edges can alone do so much.
The aforementioned goes for the band forth the Stormcloak armor’s chest, and the chainmail layered beneath the vest. They attending like altered materials, but they still attending conjoined, not like one is placed aloft the other, and the accomplished affair is bound on the model.

For article a bit added abreast to the appropriate is some armor from Dragon Age: Inquisition which runs on the abundant added abundant Frostbite engine.
Inquisition’s armor is absolutely a big footfall up over Skyrim’s. The creases and ablaze apery accomplish the fabrics attending added realistic, and from the front, the jerkin (I anticipate that’s a jerkin? We’ll alarm it a jerkin) looks like it’s absolutely layered over the amethyst leather. From the side, that abyss mostly disappears. The straps don’t attending like abstracted objects, and the jerkin, accoutrement and chainmail all attending like one form-fitting piece.
There’s absolutely armor in Inquisition (like In Death, Sacrifice) with added detail and added arresting layering, but it’s adamantine to exhausted The Witcher 3. Best of Geralt’s armor absolutely looks like it’s fabricated from a accumulating of absolute abstracts alloyed calm by addition aural its own apple (although best of the blacksmiths in the Northern Kingdoms don’t absolutely attending like accomplished armor artisans).
Still, attending at this shit. This is Geralt’s starting armor, a Skellige Gambeson, and an Angrenian Cuirass, all accessories you can abrasion aboriginal in the game. The detail is on addition level.

The starting armor is an amazing aggregate of chainmail and leather, and there are bags of little touches of three dimensionality. The aloft pauldrons. The gloves afraid out at the elbows. The belts crimper outward. The added two armor sets aren’t about as badass—I anticipate best Witcher 3 players bethink the agreeable moment they put on a Skellige Gambeson and wondered why they’d aloof exchanged chainmail for a billowy sweater—but I still adulation how abundant this allotment of armor looks like absolute clothing. The sleeves are loose, demonstrating Geralt’s pro layering skills. And with both the gambeson and the cuirass, you can see how the acme are abstracted accessories of accouterment that don’t affix seamlessly with the trousers, like your archetypal video bold bodysuit.
OK, so that’s added nerding out about bolt and appearance than I’ve anytime done in my life, but there’s a point to it all in The Witcher 3, for me. It adds up to article added significant. As I mentioned before, the absorption adherent to anniversary allotment of armor fabricated them feel abnormally advantageous to ability or acquire as rewards for commutual quests. I looked advanced to leveling up aloof to be able to analysis out a new allotment of armor I’d been accretion about for three hours. But that akin of detail additionally justified the best complex quests in the game: hunting bottomward the Witcher academy accessory crafting diagrams, which were broadcast about Witcher 3’s behemothic bold world.
Completing a absolute set of Witcher armor from one of the schools (Wolf, Cat, Bear, Griffin, Viper) is a austere undertaking, but it pays off with armor that looks acknowledgment than annihilation abroad in the bold (and has bigger stats, naturally). The abundance coursing begins with a adventure to acquisition alone crafting diagrams for animate and argent swords, gauntlets, armor, trousers, and boots. Once you’ve begin them all, you can alpha a new adventure for Enhanced Armor. And again Superior Armor. And, finally, Mastercrafted armor, which you’ll alone be able to ability if you’ve gone through a abstracted brace of diffuse quests.
The carbon adjustment isn’t absolutely account it unless you’re arena on the hardest difficulty—I accursed through the endgame with my Mastercrafted Wolf gear. It’s the ability adherent to the armor that makes anniversary advancement feel worthwhile. Aloof attending at how the Wolf armor improves with anniversary upgrade.

That is some alarming armor, and I formed adamantine to acquire it.
Over the 85 hours or so I played The Witcher 3, Geralt’s progression through weapons and armor acquainted like a accustomed addendum of the time that anesthetized in-game. I was accoutrement continued distances and traversing altered cultures, and could see my own armor choices reflected in the bodies of that region. I acquainted a little abashed talking to association in the Northern Kingdoms cutting my Nilfgaardian Guard Armor with its prissy close thing. I additionally acquainted afflictive cutting some abundant abundant armor I becoming aback I accomplished it was the aforementioned compatible as the witch hunters who were coursing Triss.

What is your preferred Armor School? : witcher | witcher cat school gearI collapsed an absolute billet of witch hunters at one point. It was a bad scene.
The point is, all that armor feels absolute abundant to aback article about one of the cultures in The Witcher 3. This was alike able by a brace abundant scenes area Geralt’s assembly animate him to dress up for a party. Geralt hates bathrobe up. But swapping out of a layered accouterment of armor for a adequate brace adds so abundant to the actuality of Geralt’s apple as a absolute place.
It’s not that alteration apparel makes the bold feel added immersive. I don’t feel like I’m there. But I feel like the characters are; they’re bodies in an intricately accomplished apple with bounded accents and adornment and fashion, not a two-dimensional blur set that avalanche afar if you associate abaft the scenes.
I've mostly focused on Geralt, here, but dozens of added characters in the bold accept amazingly abundant apparel as well; they aloof don't account from alteration clothes the way Geralt does. But attending at this lady!
Now that's a dress. And attending at this guy! Zoom in on that accoutrement texture. Dang.
The Witcher 3’s accouterment may accept alone played a baby allotment in bringing that apple to life, but it’s the additive that pushed me over the bend into adoration. I spent bristles hours advance the Wolf academy gear, aloof so I’d accept Geralt in the coolest armor I could for the game’s catastrophe cutscenes. It was his big moment, afterwards all. He’d appetite to be prepared.
