Why would you do that.

Standard cord was too short and I needed to reach my power outlet. I assume the cable is the same.

TopicThe Witcher 3 is really hard to get into...any tips for starting out?

I just finish my first Witcher 3 playthrough which took 110 hours. Here are some of my tips.

*Do not roll as it consume stamina, use side step instead. In fact, use side step instead of blocking.
*Keep an eye of your armor and sword health. You do not want to be going to boss fights with weaken weapons.
*Stockup on food. There's one early side quest where you are unable to stock up once you start, and you will be in trouble if you run out of health healing items. I believe you also can't medicate during this side quest.
*Keep to the main road instead of going offroad. You're more likely to discover fast travel point this way.

Made a stupid mistake and used a longer PC power cable which I thought was compatible with my brand new Instant Pot. It wasn't, and the cable melted at the middle which caused the Instant Pot to shutoff. Luckily it shutoff as I was upstairs and didn't even know and one of my dinner chair has a black mark where the cable was touching. The cable was super hot and I slightly burnt myself unplugging it.

I thought the Instant Pot was done, and I'll need to get a exchange. But it turned on once I used the original cable, and was able to finish the original cook. Do you guys think it will affect the life of the Instant Pot or should I still exchange it?

Oh well that's sort of a lie then. That's not technically cheese. I can get salty cream from yogurt

I think it's made from a blend of cream cheese and milk, so technically, it is cheese.

Cheese Tea? WTF is that and is it delicious?

It's more of a slightly salty cream foam than actual cheese. The way you drink it is to slip the tea with the foam on top, like a macchiato, to taste the sweet and slight saltiness.

fire dog isnt so bad, you just have to fight him like a dark souls boss instead of a bloodborne boss.

hardest bosses for me are defiled amygdala or laurence. the laurence fight could have been so much cooler....

At least you can cheese Defiled Amygdala. Watchdog was much harder. Screw losing half your health.

Finally finished the first palace. I feel like I was underlevelled for the boss but I forced my way through it, had to restart once.

Will I be able to go to Momentos soon? I heard that was a decent spot to grind.

You don't need to grind levels in this game. Money maybe if you want an easier time to merge higher level personas.

Is the game always gonna be this restrictive with saving? I just got to the school and have to stop, but the save option is grayed out so I just put the system in rest mode.

The only time you can't save is when you're doing a palace or memento and you're not in a safe room.

Fortune is the most important to rank up, because it lets you spend money instead of time to boost your social link. This means you only have to spend time with people for rank ups.

Temperance gives you additional time as well, but I forget the specifics. Death gives you mana-regenerating equipment, which lets you finish dungeons in fewer days.

Sun is not available after October I believe, so get that one over with earlier.

Theres a shop in the underground that lets you buy boosts to your social stats every Sunday I believe, so get those.

Basically take advantage of any opportunity that lets you boost your stats without using up time, like always have a book on hand for when you can read on the subway.

Temperance allows you to go out at night after going to a palace or memento instead of sleeping.

Temperance, Fortune, and Death are the best three confidants. However, Temperance and Fortune is more of a mid-game thing, so focus on Death, Lovers, and Chariot in the beginning of the game.

Heirophant for me wasn't really helpful with the SP items later in the game, and he's super hard to level up until late game.

I know this will all make sense later of course but reading that all just seems intimidating and made my head hurt lol.

Don't worry, you will figure it out like the others say. You won't unlock all the trophies with the first playthrough anyways.

*Do not use autoheal as it takes SP, and you need every bit of SP in this game until you get SP items. Buy extra healing items instead as they are dirt cheap.

*Melee weapons are a good thing to upgrade since it saves you SP.

*Try to do reach the end of the palaces in 1-2 game days, though this will be harder in the early palaces since you don't have SP items yet. Finishing palace early just gives you extra time so you can focus on bonding with your confidant. Send the calling card on the day you don't have any meetups.

*Always use attacks that are enemies' weakness. This saves you SP and time once you knock them down.

*Don't get attached to Arsene as there are better Persona later in the game. So feel free to combine him.

*Focus with increasing your bonds with confidant with secondary benefits first, especially Temperance. Also make sure to have the confidants Arcana when you do meet up.

*Save mementos missions and do it in chucks of 4 or 5 at once when your schedule is clear of meetups.
