Day 1 in Skye complete!

The mood for today

The third expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Songs of the Past will be hitting the market in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Here’s my thoughts on The Witcher 3’s “Songs of the Past” Expansion and what it means for the franchise: - Geralt is carrying 3 swords, signifying this is the third expansion - The sword Geralt is carrying is 100% Ciri’s new sword, as seen in The Witcher 4’s trailer, an identical model. Confirming she plays a major role in this. - The mummified tree man could be a major character, he seems to have branches that are styled shackles attached to him - The title “Songs of the Past” to me implies a connection to something from either Geralt or Ciri’s past, coming back to haunt them in some way? - CDPR has raised the minimum system requirements for this expansion and mentioned engine updates, so its likely we’ll see a graphical bump with this DLC. - The game’s storage requirement went up from 50GB to 70GB, meaning the new content will take up 20GB. This is not a small DLC in any way. - I do think that Geralt carrying Ciri’s sword signifies that she obviously plays a huge role in this DLC, maybe Geralt is looking for her in this new place that is ruled by the man shackled by the trees. Someone tied to Geralt or Ciri’s past, or both of them. - It’s safe to assume this directly leads into Witcher 4, so we could see why or how Ciri decided to become a Witcher by taking the mutations, it’s also very likely going to be used as a way to explain how each ending’s Ciri gets to that Witcher 4 entry point, without needing to carry over your choices through a save into TW4 - This will likely be the final time we play as Geralt of Rivia in a Witcher game, so let’s enjoy it while it lasts! - It’s not coming to the Nintendo Switch, making a new TW3 Switch 2 port very likely coming at some point Songs of the Past is a new gen exclusive expansion, it will take advantage of a lot of new tech for sure and feel much more technically advanced than anything from the base game. They confirmed we’ll see more of it in the summer ahead of the 2027 release which is hopefully early in the year. Let me know your own thoughts in the replies, I wanna know what your ideas are too!

@TimbosTits Oh my days 🥵🥵🥵

Extra ventilation in this heat 🥵

A play in four acts

Sometimes when your friend group consists of multiple 6 foot Māori men u all gotta cosplay the same character (we are so funny)

Peak DnD: Casting Vicious Mockery to take out the last enemy in a fight. Also peak DnD: Rolling 1 for damage and finding out that the enemy had 2 hp.

@TimbosTits You absolute beaut

Got someone coming round to look at designing a new kitchen

DnD players: if you’re going to cast Hallish Rebuke, make sure that you’re actually rebuking whatever set you off. You get one reaction per round, and you should spend it saying something awesome. #dnd

🇪🇸 The New York Times has obtained the Spanish televoting percentages from the Eurovision 2025 Grand Final. Israel received roughly one-third of the televote. According to the NYT, "It would have taken just a few hundred people, voting en masse, to secure [Israel]’s victory."

One of the most realistic gay films ever made is Weekend. No drama. No fantasy. Just two people trying to feel something real. Too honest or just right?

🟦The Witcher 4 World: 🔹Roughly equal to Wild Hunt, but way more "systemic" and immersive. 🔹Includes Kovir and its "Venice-like" winter capital, Lan Exeter. (Key Regions) 🔹Expect a deeper, more reactive world. We even have confirmation that the hunt for the Bauk in Stromford is a playable quest where we can save Mioni. 🔹It feels like CDPR is doubling down on the "isolated village" atmosphere that made the first games so special. 🔹Checking out Valdrest it’s a busy port town known for fishing and freight, but it’s mostly great for finding sketchy characters and picking up rumors from far-off lands. #TheWitcher4 #CDProjekt #UE5
