HOW TO PLAY GWENT (Beginner Tutorial) - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

I've watched this video 25 times and I still don't understand any of this. F*** Gwent

Dumb game in a dumb game.

Wut

Is this really your attempt to explain this game simply?

Worthy of note is that, right off the bat playing Gwent will be very frustrating as you don't have a lot to work with, so buying new cards and padding your deck a bit before challenging for unique cards is a must-do move. When I first started playing Gwent I hated it because yours odds of winning with such a vanilla deck are pretty slim. Buy some from merchants and innkeepers and pad them a bit and you're off to the races and you'll now need to rely on your strategy.

I’ve never had a problem with playing Gwent 😂 I win about 95% of all games I play, I’ve played through the high stakes gwent quest twice back to back and didn’t lose. But of course sometimes you get a bad deck and lose

Even with this tutorial I didn’t understand anything of gwent. The last card game I played in videogame was Final Fantasy 8 cause it was easy to understand.

alllll these years later and watching dozens of tutorials i still havent won a single hand of gwent but listening never worked. watching a real match has

I still don’t understand the first screen before you play. And is it possible to get rid of cards, I hear that you should keep a small deck

Idk if it’s just me but I didn’t get a shit 😅 it would be easier if I played a match (tutorial match) whit an real player and learn from that way. But I think I will learn in the time but anyway good video still.

Clear as mud 😂 I'm even more confused now after watching this

Witcher 3 could have given another game which is understood by everyone. Who will waste so many times to play a game which is basically a game of luck. Cards that will come out random . I bet 90% gamers avoid playing gwent

I can't believe back in 2015, I knew the ins and outs of this game to where I was good, really good. I'd make a point to travel far and wide when I heard about a gwent player npc to go and get a new card when I beat them. I recently started playing hearthstone again after a 5 year hiatus and I just downloaded gwent and I'm totally lost, but I remember it being so much fun I want to get back into it. One feature I wish they could add is somehow linking the standalone gwent game with the collection you've gathered from the Witcher 3 gwent. Good video though, I'll probably have to watch it at least 4 more times before I understand

I feel like the tutorial is pretty bad for Gwent. The first time I tried it, both me and the npc just placed down all of our cards first round, because I really don't see the point in a strategic loss if your just continuing with pretty much the same cards next round, and I won, but then for the next 2 rounds neither of us had any power at all, and it just defaulted to me losing for some reason. It seems like there's much more strategy later on, but just starting out there doesn't seem to be any

Dude some advice. When making a tutorial video try to make the visuals match the narrative esp when the visuals are the most important part. It makes no sense to talk about how to place the cards on the field or what cards are while showing a random match going on with no connection to what is being said. You used visuals as if they are the background score to your narrative rather than an actual help !

I've played W3:WH for many, many hours and I've watched many, MANY videos purporting to explain how to play, and I assume win, Gwent, but I have yet to win a single hand in-game.

I'm old (late 50s) and therefore have of course never played, or watched being played, a deck building type game. This also means that this card game genre is simply beyond my brain's ability to comprehend.
That said, is there any in-game way to get advice or hints on what to do while playing Gwent?

How do you unlock leader cards?

I don’t fucking get it!!

Fuck this. I think I'll just cheat

I need help with the setting up the deck before you even start the game because I try to start but it keeps saying I don't have enough cards in my deck and don't know what to do

Fucking shit game I don't understand shit!! 😒

I'm on level 25 and haven't played a single game of gwent yet, I attempted it but got bored and turned it off. I know I need to learn it but this is a lot to take in lol 😂
Thanks for the info 👍

I never won a freaking game my opponent always my phone always had better cards

As a Magic the Gathering player who's still playing Skyrim and been saving W3 (which I have but have not played yet) for when I'm done Skyrim....I know...LOL.
This has got me pumped and a bit worried. It's bad enough all the time I spend playing MtG, now I'm gonna have it in my RPG as well? This might not go well for me. 8-P

Milfgard has the most op based king wins every tie

Gotta do some sound editing so that you don't peak your sound every time you make S sound. Good guide though

Came here after Vlodimir von Everec bet all of Geralt's gold on a Gwent game, not about to lose now.

They drawn1 crad in the 2nd round and win instantly WTF DO I DO IN THIS CASE? How do I ev0en pick a card when theres no cards to draw from and you can't get any from the deck?

Welp, time to find 100 more hours to search the world for these cards!

I think you explained it well, but I’m still a little confused. I’ll probably do better after I play a bit.

I HATE GWET

That Geralt impression was spot on!

I hate mini games in RPG's. Gwent is by far the worst one. This video made it even more confusing. I think I'll just skip it.

I watched the entire thing and still have no idea wtf you said

You jump so fast from point to point and explain things way to fast man.

6 playthroughs, 250+ hrs, and here I am checking Gwent tutorial.

i don't know... i tried so many times to play it, even set the gwent difficulty to easy and i still lose, sorry but this card game sucks...
one time i had a higher score and decided to pass knowing i would win the round, my opponent then pulled a card, had a higher score all of a sudden and beat me even though i still had many more cards...

That Geralt impression at the beginning had me dying.

I didn’t understand a shit u said

I'm lost lol. I don't know the first thing about these card games and have no idea what I am about to do in my first match.

in what universe is this a 'beginner tutorial'?

Is there a stronger faction of the 4 decks?
Can you dump lousy cards, or are the 10 starting cards locked in to your deck.

I'm still lost as fuck. Thanks tho 🤣

I have no clue what I just watched. Must find a simple example game :(

Still too complicated to understand...for a simple mind like mine

Tutorial for a person who already knows gwent... congrats...you stink

Hey, thank you for this. I started The Witcher 3, ended up not playing it for a year, and then when I finally got back to it I completely forgot everything there was to know about GWENT. Put that on top of the tutorial already being confusing, your crystal clear explanation was exactly what I needed. Thank you!

I thought it was just skystone smash

Don't think I'm cut out for Gwent. I'm 3 mins in and I'm already bored 🙂
