Sorry for the wait as always. I'll be trying to get one or two more videos in before I'm on hiatus for a little bit to help my wife after our child is born. Thanks for your patience!<br><br>And if you'd like to check out Stalcraft: X, head to <a href="https://stalcraft.net/s/46xqzV">https://stalcraft.net/s/46xqzV</a> and use my welcome bonus code THESALTFACTORY24 in game.

Riding into Toussaint for the first time was one of the all time best gaming experiences I’ve ever had. The colors, the music, the atmosphere, the unknown monsters stalking the land. All of it such a <i>HUGE</i> difference from Velen, Skellige, Novigrad, and Kaer Morhen with their cooler earth tones and generally darker feeling.

Fun fact: if you complete HoS before the main quest and choose to kill Olgierd you can also ask O'Dimm about Ciri's whereabouts and you will basically get instructions on how to get the good ending.

It’s kinda crazy that they foreshadow the whole moon being on the ground plot twist when Shani says the moon is right there in the middle of the lake. Never noticed that before

Interestingly the story of Heart of Stone is more closely inspired by the story of Pan Twardowski in Polish literature, a noble man who made a deal with the devil in exchange for knowledge and power. Their deal had a special clause which stipulated that Twardowski's soul could only be collected in Rome, a place he never intended to go to. But the devil used a loophole when Pan Twardowski entered an inn called "Rome". Just like Gunter O'Dim collected Von Everec's soul "on the moon".

Pretty sure Regis explains in the books and briefly in game that drinking blood is the equivalent of mortals drinking hard liquor for vampires. He's always consumed alcohol, he even brews moonshine out of mandrake root. <br><br>He swore off drinking meaning human blood not alcohol.

One thing important to note about Gaunter, is that he may not be as grey as it initially may seem. It is strongly implied that ODimm is responsible for Olgierds downfall, pushing him to the point where he asks Gaunter for help. And it’s almost guaranteed that Gaunter was responsible for Gerald being arrested by the Ofieri wizard, who just <b>happened</b> to show up to save his prince at the exact moment where Geralt kills him and passes out. In short that ODimm creates the problems for his subjects and then offers them the solutions.

We see Geralt come back for Orianna in the cinematic trailer, “A Night to Remember”, that came out prior to the base games release. We see Geralt kill her then ride off back to Toussaint. A prerelease trailer ended up being a post epilogue event. This is one of the coolest things that any gaming company has ever done for me for some reason.

as for Regis drinking alcohol, there's no mistake here - in the books, it is the blood that affects vampires in the booze way, and it was the blood that Regis had a drinking issue with. so him casually dropping a glass or two of regular alcohol creates no contradiction.

Another 2 things about the cannibal quest. 1. There's a human sized cage in that larder, now why would there be a human sized cage if they're just taking the wolves' left over dinner? 2. If you choose to attack them, they seem to be quite capable in a fight given that they're so “frail and fragile”.

Being a fan of the books, I almost cried when Regis was introduced in Blood and Wine.
