You can unlock more slots for active abilities as you go on, later on you'll have enough slots for all the ones you really like.

Only thing that is really annoying me is the fact you can only "activate" a few of your abilities at a time, makes me less inclined to invest in new stuff, I just keep upgrading the ones that I can currently equip. But I suppose that, with the fact that the game is open world now, they needed a way to avoid making Geralt too op during the course of the entire game. It just annoys me having to keep swapping them in and out. |
That pissed me off too. Where's the logic that Geralt can only "remember" certain special abilities at a time? For example, the reflecting arrows one is very handy when up against human foes, but against monsters its useless but having to swap every time you encounter an enemy is beyond tedious.
Do like I did: install the mod that enables a bunch of ability slots (you can decide how many you have). I play the game on max difficulty to compensate but to be honest, most abilities aren't that powerful and you gain points slow enough for me to wonder whether it makes a big difference anyway.

The other two big annoyances I fixed with mods too:
- camera far too close to Geralt due to low FOV. Mod increases the FOV both in-door and outdoor which prevents me feeling dizzy
- the inventory space is too limited and because a lot of stuff you pick up has its use (for crafting, alchemy, etc.) I felt very reluctant to sell it off or dismantle it (which costs money).
Speaking of which, I also installed a mod that makes dismantling stuff free. It felt weird having to pay for reducing an item to its raw materials.

You felt weird paying gold for asking someone to work, spend their time and provide services for you?!
Are you from Romania, mate?

You cheapskate! 
I rarely had to scrap items, as I always had plenty of everything. But the prices I had to pay for scrapping - in my case - were merely symbolic (I almost always had tens of thousands of gold on me, so those scrapping prices really meant nothing).

Usually I don't like balance-altering mods, so I'll keep it "vanilla" for now, but thanks for the suggestions, will check them out if I get really annoyed.
I'm playing on high difficulty too (not the "insane" one tho). Feels very well balanced for now, but it did in TW2 as well and then by act two I was OP as fuck. Hope it doesn't happen here too.

You become op around level 6-7 anyway. I'm considering upping the difficulty level. The only thing keeping me is that I know the enemies won't be smarter, only more "bullet"-spongy.
Regardless, as I worte earlier, this is a superb game -- despite its flaws.

You really don't need to salvage stuff, you can just sell it most of the time. You'll be swimming in cash and materials in no time.

"Available tomorrow with all expansions and additional content!" from their facebook. But i guess the "additonal content" means those free DLC's that they released.

I only own the base game. I suppose depending on price of the GOTY, it might just be cheaper to buy the season pass to get the rest of the content now?

It's five euros cheaper on GoG, plus you get that nice warm feeling that you are not supporting the American company which gets their cut, going into their tax system, funding Hillary and Trump.
