Yeah agreed it's just a mod. There are already some disgusting mods out that just destroy the balance of the game. Like mutagens on every talent and potions and oils lasting 30 minutes etc. He's not asking CDP to add this imbalance to the game so I don't think it's an issue.

But personally I find it's a lot easier to kill enemies by dodging and doing a nice large swing than parrying and blocking. Especially when you are fighitng multiple targets, the block/parry is annoyng. It's better to just dodge and it's faster too.

Thanks for that mod! I realize some people love challenge but also some people just want to have fun, theres no right and wrong, if you get your jollys from balanced, challenging game play good for you guys, nothing wrong with it but not everyone finds fun in that.

Really big thanks to all the modders who make these tweaks so people can enjoy the game more.

prob a tad too easy.

but then again you still have to initiate the block after every hit, with a no vigour system it does not seem right to have to re-block every time. unless they made it so you had to push the block in time with the enemy attack


i will not be using this, i just want to see if we get a revamped blocking system later down the road or not my hopes is they revamp it, and a litlte other things.



also just tell us how it is, and i will see if i can suggest ways to make it better if possible.

I think it's sad that people have to resort to mods instead of just learning to play. I guess you have to have that cookie before baking it. Instant gratification for no effort.

/agreed These people may as well just mod their game to make Geralt invincible, this game's not even hard. But I guess some people just have to cheat their way through.

Instead of learning to play the game, why don't you find something else to whine and complain about. Because it's the tool not the fool right?

ROFLMAO. You make me laugh.

now now remain civil ;) Maybe at some point modders will do a full balance overhaul, but I am not that modder. I think the balance is actually fairly wonky mainly because of various bugs. But i gotta admit that blocking without losing vigor *is* fairly fun. It allows you to cast signs and not use quen all the time.

That said, you could make blocking only drain half-a-vigor but signs would still use a full vigor slot, so you can end up not being able to block at all..

And a real balance overhaul would likely make the gamer harder (because chap 2 and chap 3 are basically 0 challenge, with very few exceptions (mainly when the game throws 6+ enemies at you))

agreed, but i really want to see red do it themselves you know...

but like i have always said the blocking system should be separated from the Vigour system in some way but still limited in another better way.

so how do people think of rolling around like a ball in combat?

For sure there will be some combat overhaul mods coming later. For now the game is still great. And I already to 2 mods installed.

p.s: btw, i think a mod regarding some place to sleep, some animation for drinking potion should be great as well. Just to add realism, just think about how Gerald just sit down on a middle a town, mediate just to drink some potions :))
