Redpill me on playing this on death march...

Death March is literally just Bethesda difficulty percentages, pointless and stupid, but you do you user, hope you have fun

Still trivial as hell, just use alchemy

Dodge more
No, more than that

I'm still mad CDPR felt the need to add a tutorial level to W2 because console casuals were too fucking lazy to read popup tutorials during the prologue

so it's literally just time wasting bullshit for the sake of it, alright

I wouldn’t recommend death march for your first play through unless for some reason you really really like the combat.

Which autist told you to play on Death March? Just play on Normal and enjoy yourself

i legitimately don't know what people find hard about Death March considering it needs a good attention span and patienc-

oh, i forgot this is Zig Forums

Yeah, a real combat system wouldn't have any consequences for getting hit

It gets much easier when you level up and unlock some broken skills. That said, Death March sucks and I'm almost ashamed of my hardcore gamer phase when I played everything on hardest difficulty.

yes, ideally you'd play at a lower difficulty level

This is how all people who cry about the combat being too hard or who rely on the Quen crutch play like

a real combat system would do more than just increase numbers
TW3 is simply tedious

pick them off one by one, axii, roll behind and use heavy attacks
quick strikes once you're more sure of your ground
the first fight is literally the toughest one in the game since you have nothing at your disposal
and get the sun&stars skill as well as gourmet, they'll make everything much easier
also oils
fucking use oils

death march isn;t even hard once you get some decent gear

Yeah yeah user, whatever. Save it, I've seen enough of this coping in Dark Souls threads
>waaaaaaaah waaaaaaaaaaah every enemy should die in 2 hits at most
>waaaaaaah waaaaaaaah I should be allowed to get hit 20 times
>waaaaaaaah waaaaaaaaaah I totally learned the combat (even though I still keep being hit), not instantly winning is just tedious

why would you play this game for the combat?

also this
you don't die in 2 hits unless you fight an enemy like 5 levels above you

>waaaaaah waaaaaaaah I shouldnt have to hit a basic enemy 20 times to kill it
>waaaaaaaaah waaaaaaaah toucan sam vision

No basic enemy in the game takes more than 4 or 5 hits to kill. Play the game before shitposting next time

State of nu-Zig Forums. Even without any good gear, and vacuuming the whole map, its easy as fuck. As anons in this thread said you should just Queen up after any attack missed and roll around picking off single targets. If you don't have the attention span of a typical burger you can easily spot the 10hour attack animation and any "bosses" have only a few attacks and 0 complexity.

Further proof is the existence of mods that increase enemies' health and damage because roughly at level 30 you just faceroll everything and kill the last boss on the first attempt.

>State of nu-Zig Forums.
>you should just Queen up
t. 16 year old too stupid to hit the dodge button

Queen is an essential tool and if you are not using it just for internet cool points enjoy the additional saves/loads. Actual hard difficulty games require you to know your toolkit and devise strategies not just being some dark sooler with infinite dodges.

>enjoy the additional saves/loads
Just fucking dodge nigger

Pretty much this. Quen is so overpowered you literally don't even have to level it up. In fact, leveling it up is just a waste of points, so don't waste points leveling it up, do you understand? But use it all the time.
Also after you level up a bit there'll be no difference between playing the game on easy or deathmarch. The combat in this game is as braindead as it gets. No skill or strategy needed at any point. It's a game for casul players but is not bad.

quen implies you're getting hit so don't get hit, shitter
it's only useful for putting out flames on yourself

I am playing it my first time through on death march. Just grabbed the ability that let me enjoy regeneration from food and other items longer and that solved about 90% of my problems.

Your argument is valid only If you don't get hit once during your 80 hours first playthrough. If you don't delude yourself and accept the fact that you MIGHT get hit, then you should use it.

>the ability that let me enjoy regeneration from food
Are you an ESL or just autismal?

Do you want to fight bullet sponge after bullet sponge with TW3's trash combat? Put the difficulty on easy or normal and just enjoy the story.

unironical big brain post
gourmet is a fucking joke considering you can carry literal hundreds of any given food
the only hits i take are from stray archers that i fail to notice thanks to foliage
enemy attacks are so easily telegraphed you must have the reflexes of a stoned chess player to get hit

Get a mod that let's you have all mutations active and multiple pages of skills so you can actually have fun with all your combat options instead of playing a green build and mashing light attack for roughly a hundred hours.

THE ONLY WAY TO ENJOY WITCHER 3'S COMBAT SYSTEM IS BY PLAYING ON PC WITH THE ENHANCED EDITION MOD INSTALLED!
IF YOU'RE NOT DOING THAT, YOU'RE PLAYING THE CRUNCHED UNDERWHELMING AND UNDERDELIVERED VERSION OF W3'S COMBAT!

If you take damage from archers you take damage, nigger. Now you have to use consumables or that skill that gives you passive regeneration during day hours.

>80% more hp
>bullet sponge
you'd be hitting that territory at 300% hp or more

Yeah, because of no I-frames and taking damage as soon as the attack animation starts

archers do like 10%, the fuck is your point
that can me outhealed multiple times by a single unit of food

Pretty much, bitcher 3 is garbage.

>the only hits i take are from stray archers that i fail to notice thanks to foliage
You're the one who said he uses """""all tools""""" to win at combat. Turns out you're just using the one for retards too bad at the game
Protip: You have a horse. Use it on archers
