The Witcher 3: Hearts Of Stone Review - GamerKnights

the boys over at GamerKnights have done a full in depth review of the new DLC "Hearts of Stone" for the excellent "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt".

"Hearts of Stone is an unmissable addition to an unmissable game. If you weren’t bothered with the Witcher 3 earlier this year, nothing here will sway you. It is more of the same. This is just the reason I loved Hearts of Stone so much, however. If you too loved the original release, there is no reason not to pick this modestly priced expansion up. It adds a bunch of excellent new content to the already overly-generous title, and all of it is worth experiencing. Throw in a wicked story and some great characters and Hearts of Stone is a serious contender for some of the best DLC to date, period."

Let us know your feedback!

I just tried to start the expansion last night. I had to finish the White Orchard prologue in NG+ to unlock the Hearts of Stone missions because I didn't want to go with either of the other two options that they listed. Using a pre-made character build, or just the expansion, with no access to any main story quests. I finished the prologue and made it to hang man's tree, which unlocked the first quest, but the suggested level for it was 62?!?! The in game title screen said that if you went with the pre-made build option that Geralt would be leveled sufficiently for the expansion at level 32. My Geralt is level 38. I don't understand why the suggested level was so high. Is it a bug?

[andresegr]

Its because you are playing it in New Game Plus. Everything is more difficult in that mode, and the required level to use weapons and armors is waaay higher.

You should have stayed with the regular save profile.

[Kingdomcome247]

I didn't see an option for that. It was either use the pre-made build, or play just the expansion. Is playing just the expansion option what you're talking about?

My feedback is I won't click on your link now out of spite as I don't appreciate anyone who attempts to flaunt your home-created website. I wish you the best but will not click simply because you are asking for my click.

Don't try so hard, it comes off poorly.

[nowitzki2004]

How are they trying so hard?

[FunkyGoron]

Just release your content and be happy about it. Don't ask me to click on it just so I can tell you what was wrong with it. Probably the people who have multiple accounts to post and up-vote their own site.

There's enough garbage getting approved anyways, don't need more of it.

[nowitzki2004]

They are asking for feedback to help their site improve. Asking from people who read the article, if you chose not to read then obviously you cant give good feedback.

I respect that they are on a gaming site like N4G where gamers are and asking us what we think. Seems like they are for the gamers.

Site looks good too, and they have to be better than IGN.

WT*?

[shammgod]

hahaha, what is this?

[Grap]

Anyway i really dislike your background, it's really distracting from the text.

[GamerKnights]

@FunkyGoron, you are absolutely not funky. Ehm where in the hell do I ask your click? If you want to read our review read it, if not DO NOT!

Home-created. what do you think the majority of these gaming websites are???

It's not all IGN, Gamespot, Eurogamer etc etc.

Besides... on the garbage ... I'm pleased to say that all the publishers like our garbage otherwise they won't be sending us any review copies. doh!

[FunkyGoron]

Wow, holy shit you got an early copy of an expansion and a PC game to review? I take back everything I say, your site rocks man.

I'd rather read an actual article than some guy in a basement's opinion. Most people don't like much gaming journalism but there are good writers and reviewers out there and I am glad they don't peddle their site like you do.

[GamerKnights]

@ Grap, would it be better with a non-white text?

[psplova]

Can't wait to finally really get into this tonight! I started it just to unlock the new rune/glyph word abilities but decided to stop there and finish the game before continuing.. I'm proud to say, after 550+ hours of my life spent playing this game, I finally comnpleted the game! Now I'm looking forward to finishing up the few side quests, like Skelliges Most Wanted and all of the Gwent quests :( so that I can get into Hearts of Stone! yay me

[andresegr]

Be careful with the Skellige Most Wanted quest bro. You should save before starting that quest because it bugs a lot at the end, fucking up you save file.

[psplova]

Oh, I know. Trust me. lol That's why I've been waiting to try and finish that quest. This last update supposedly fixes the glitch.

[daBUSHwhaka]

Hit the point where I can go no further with this expansion until the next patch, whenever that may be.Buggy main quest where things are not where they should be.
