AlthoughTellstonesisn’t nearly as ambitious, it’s a reminder of how the tabletop division of Riot is always ready to rock....

It covers a lot of the gameplay elements, such as the “witchery side of the game,” the different skill trees, and how mutagens allow you to mutate some skills in one skill tree to make up for not being able to put points into other skill trees. The devs talk a bit about how Geralt will be able to wield more types of weapons than inThe Witcher, how crafting and using items works, and how you can combine items with magical attacks like setting fire to bombs....
