Best Games To Play If You Like The Witcher 3
Players who have completed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt can try out these similar games if they want to go through another action-packed experience.
On Reddit, user antnkrlz has come across a rather shocking, yet welcoming, source of extra loot in The Witcher 3. While out rummaging through the game's bushes and forests, antnkrlz stumbled across the discovery that fallen trees actually contain gold coins for players to grab. Although not all tree stumps produce hidden treasures, as well as not showing up on Geralt's witcher senses, Orens can be found no matter how big or small the trees are, making them a fantastic source of additional money when Geralt is too broke to purchase many of the best items in The Witcher 3.
Witcher Player Finds Loot in Fallen Trees
Other commentators in the Reddit thread were just as surprised to find out that loot could be picked from destroyed trees. One user in a state of shock at the discovery after all of this time said, "Ex-fricking-scuse me?!? Oh, I am checking every fallen tree I see now!" while another Witcher fan replied that they had played the game five times, and they had never come across the knowledge regarding tree loot before. Another player said that not only can trees be looted, but also haystacks, especially so in The Witcher 3's stunning Toussaint region.
It is no easy task to create a gigantic game such as The Witcher 3 and also retain engagement from players. To keep them on their toes, CD Projekt Red is known to make nods and references in The Witcher 3 through Easter eggs that some players may have missed on their first playthrough. While some are buried deep within The Witcher world and aren't easy to find, players will always find something cool and exciting around the corner just waiting to be uncovered.
