As a diary entry today uh
I just finished my first organic playthrough of The Witcher 3.
I was dreading ending this for so long.
I was so dang worried with all my fuck ups how I'd manage to do anything.
I ended up being overlevelled and still somehow got the ending I wanted (with Ciri becoming a Witcher) . (Of course I'm spoilered I've been playing this for three years or more).
I will ABSOLUTELY start a New Game + but just for today.
Truth be told I didn't... I didn't really realize I was so desperately dreading the end because I was worried about a fictional daughter. My own relationship with my father is rocky for the most part, so uh. I guess the fear of repeating that really had me freaking out in dialogue choices and so on.
Don't get me wrong the absolute worst part of all this is still horse races and WHOEVER PUT SO MANY QUESTION MARKS ON THE SKELLIGE MAP
But damn it was a beautiful story. Now I have to move on and finish the Ghost of Tsushima. But to think I wouldn't have gone through with finishing this, specifically, if my dad hadn't pissed me off- I already wrote a character insert that left for good in a similar situation.
Overall it was a productive day but too many feelings. I just had to let that out. Thanks for reading I guess, and uh
