It is almost like literally watching the slow crawl of winter into the North. Very foreboding. Something wicked this way comes.

Playing Gwent is my main mission whenever I do a Witcher 3 run-through. Poor Ciri, I will take myself to the Toussaint Gwent Tourament before I will even go see the Crones to advance her storyline. Also I would 100% play Gwent with chibi Geralt if I could. I play Northern Realms!

I remember getting so sad when I heard the "quest completed" sound effect and then read "Collect 'Em All"...nooooooo XDDDD also, as much as I love the game, I'm still disappointed that you can't play gwent with some major characters...

Is it cold in the North? Yes. Yes it is. For at least six months of the year. But we have the northern lights. Almost makes up for it.
