How bout that ending, tho?
I mean, do i REALLY have to go and point out that killing off the entire cast, then retconning the only surviving character to an unmentioned world, for reasons that don't make sense really isn't how one usually ends a series?
the Witcher 1-3 are entirerly focused on Geralt, Triss, Yennefer and Ciri, the game was made based on just a small part (30%) of book, And the describtion about Wither's world is.......fascinating :) it's great that author also expand the story after the event of Wild hunt.

I watched the 1st 3 episodes of Witcher Netflix series, compared to the books the quality is outstanding and i was truly amazed how Netflix one is so close to the books! The first 3 episodes are based on Sword of Destiny, and it covered the events prior of videogames, you should go to check them out :P

I still haven't read Sapkowski's last book, so i've no idea how Wither series ends, I suspect
After Wild Hunt, Ciri refused to become Nifgaard's next empress, and choices to follow his adopted father as a Witcher then adventure continues

Shit. I suspect I spoiled the series for you, then. The book series.

I guess it's Arch of Triumph. I have a lot connected to that book because that's the reason why I entered college. It really means a lot for me and I will try explain why so. When I needed to enter the college I had to pass test and essay task by Arch of Triumph and got some help here with that if someone is interested in.

Not one book, but a book series: Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind.
It was adapted into a TV show called Legend of the Seeker, which sadly only got 2 seasons before being cancelled and did not even get past the first book, as it was excellent. I only started reading the books after the show got cancelled. There are something like 20 books in the series spanning numerous story arcs, and while the newer books are not as good they are still great IMO.
If I had to pick just one book from the series it could be pretty much any of the first 11 books at random (spanning the first 4 story arcs), before he killed off one of my favorite characters, as they are all equally great.

Does it need to be a published book?
If not then Kammi Kettu by QuietValerie is probably my favorite completed book. Her other stories such as Falling Over, Touble With Horns, and Ryn of Avonside are all really good too, but are still in progress. Their all trans lesbian stories, but even if you're not trans / lesbian their well written enough to probably still be enjoyable reads.

Normally I would say Les Miserables, but hey, usually nobody wants to read that. So I'm gonna promote a basically unknown author: Echoes by L.A. Ashton. The only vampire stuff (which I usually hate) that is actually good.

    @BigOnYa,
    I don't listen? What didn't I listen at? I just want to know all the possible risks on that part

    Hayato even said it's dangerous to backup the save files to CFW

    how is this dangerous? A ton of people did this it's the most common thing to do with CFW

  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    For example, HOW is is risky to get banned if you extract the save files to the CFW?
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    isn't this proccess be done while you're offline?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We are not Nintendo, so we don't know exactly how/why/when they ban, but better to stay on the safe side and not do shady stuff, if you don't want to be banned. Hayato is one of the most knowledgeable ones here on the subject and I believe what he says.

    300 bucks hmmm lol
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    @BigOnYa, Yes ofc we don't know how Nintendo bans work, but if there are situations where a lot of people have tried safely then we can at least assume that this path is pretty much safe. To say don't try anything homebrew relative just to be safe forever is the easiest thing to say to someone. What I am trying to figure out here is with which cases and what actions got most of the people their bans for.
  • A @ ATEMVEGETA:
    Most things I can find resulting to a ban is save-editing reasons, like Pokehex, etc, and going online afterwards.
