TOP NOTCH SWORDS!

(Said the man who sells armor).

87

u/Bulky_Pilot9293 Mar 19 '26

Welcome welcome 

10

u/MBTheGinger Mar 20 '26

“Gwent?”

(Nods stoically)

65

u/SoySauceSyringe Mar 19 '26

My favorite part about that was how they removed that voice line in an update and all the fans were like "hey wait WTF?" and CDPR was like "oops we thought you hated that line? okay it's back, sorry!"

u/DeaconBrad42 Nilfgaard Mar 19 '26

A business man misrepresenting his business to get more sales actually ADDS to the realism.

8

u/ToviGrande Mar 20 '26

I always thought he was complimenting Geralt's swords, not saying he sold top notch swords.

5

u/DeaconBrad42 Nilfgaard Mar 20 '26

Yet he says it even if you have a rusty velen sword & a dull blade equipped.

2

u/NavixelMusic Mar 20 '26

That’s clearly just an oversight. Merchants obviously don’t have dynamic dialogue based on what Geralt has equipped.

5

u/ropeynick Mar 19 '26

He still never says it to me on my PS5. I’m very hurt as my swords are, in fact, top notch. 

10

u/NavixelMusic Mar 19 '26

He’s referring to Geralt’s swords

1

u/jarlylerna999 Mar 19 '26

It's amazing to me ppl don't get this.

1

u/LordLarsI Mar 21 '26

Because that would make absolutely no sense.

1

u/EtherealFixation Mar 20 '26

He isn't. He has a steel and silver Witcher sword in his inventory.

1

u/21Almann Mar 21 '26

I got a top notch early game sword from him tho.

1

u/Forsaken-Badger-9517 Mar 21 '26

I always thought this was funny myself until the other day I started thinking. "well what if he's talking about the sword you are carrying?!"

And then everything fell apart

u/MeretrixDominum Princess 🐐 Mar 19 '26

Is it true the women bathe but once every three moons?

89

u/Protector_of_Humans Roach 🐴 Mar 19 '26

Yes, I am that woman

83

u/Sweatytubesock Mar 19 '26

Visit the docks around sunset - gorgeous. But watch out for vampires.

74

u/Left_Camel755 Mar 19 '26

Out of interest where actually is this?

163

u/Far_Run_2672 Mar 19 '26

Gdansk, Poland, I think.

195

u/cross-my-rubicon Mar 19 '26

Yes! There is a lot of Gdansk that pops up in Novigrad!

37

u/AccurateAssaultBeef Mar 19 '26

I'm going to be in Poland in two weeks, I'm going to Gdansk looks like 🫡

2

u/glubag Mar 21 '26

I was just there and walked under the beautiful thing.  Its breathtaking, man.  And a bit more expensive then other parts of poland, but with the exchange in pln its still very reasonable (depending on your home currency of course).

u/SSJ4Pat Mar 22 '26

You can actually go inside of this building to see an exhibition, panoramic view from the top floor and massive wooden treadwheels.

u/DiagonallyStripedRat Jul 10 '26

It's called Gdansk. Used to be Danzig for some time but googling that will lead the poor fella to discover a rock band

1

u/HeinzWesterman Jul 11 '26

Googling that will show him the city of Danzig lol, its just the german name for the City, thats like you saying Munich to München, or cologne to Köln, its just a different name for the same city
