Gaming

Makes me wish I had known anything about computers back ite early 90ies. Or even late 80ies. We did have computer science in school... 9th grade I think. I'm sure the teacher did his best but it was all abysmal. I didn't understand a thing.

At my "little" school they had those chunky-keyed Acorn/BBC Micro things that I don't ever remember using. Then at the next school they had those generic and rubbish PC things. Were they CGA? Or worse than that? Can't remember.
But I do remember that I only ever had two computer lessons and only one of them involved actual computers. The other lesson was learning about Flow Charts.

Anyway, back to modern computing/gaming and I've finally worked out where I can play darts in GTA V. Darts!
So off I went to a redneck bar in the middle of nowhere and I said Hi to the locals as I went in. Unfortunately they didn't like me saying Hi and started a fight. I won but someone called the police on me so I had to run. I only wanted to play darts.
After much chasing and crashing I got away but after all that crashing my car wasn't in good condition so I was on the lookout for another ride and I saw a rather odd looking van. I moved in for a closer look but before I could steal it someone sneaked up behind me, knocked me out and I then find myself with no clothes tied to some train tracks!?

 

Obviously I've freed myself and managed to avoid the oncoming train but that was a very strange experience. Luckily I'm not too far from the darts bar so I might just have a walk in my pants. I'm sure the naked black guy will fit in just fine with all those rednecks this time...

 

I made sure not to say Hi to anyone this time around. I just kept quiet and avoided all eye contact. Don't mind me, lady. I'm not here for trouble, I'm just here for the darts....

 

And I beat her convincingly. Kept having to finish on a double thirteen due to my dodgy arithmetic but still managed to hit it. Just look at that smug victorious face!

Hears strange noise.

Sees massive ROYAL Wyvern with three health bars!
(well, I say three. It might have been four. I seemed to die before I could count to that number.)

In the "afterlife" after quitting Geralt does a bit of research and realises that this quest is recommended for a higher level Witcher.

Wyverns are generally pretty easy apart from the annoying glitchy head when they do the forward munch, the annoying waiting for them to land after they fly around for ten minutes, and the fact that on one occasion of that fight one of them got stuck in the cave entrance. They are pretty much the same as the Griffins/Arch Griffins where you can hug their armpit for most of the fight and just dodge away when they do the swipe.

Ewwww wyvern armpit!

It's not that bad, they get a lot of airflow under there 

I suppose you do have a point...

There are Arch griffins?
The only griffin I've beaten is the one that Vesemir defeated while I tried to not put my sword away.
So far I haven't been too bad versus individual Wyverns but two was a little more tricky and then when the big one also swooped in before I could heal then I knew death was inevitable.
I'm now undecided about trying again or skulking back to an earlier save so I can avoid this quest for a while.

I think you should go find yourself a pair of trousers....

Unlike nearly-nude darts specialist Franklin, Geralt is over-encumbered with lots of possible outfits (including his fancy pants partywear!)
GTA doesn't have that kind of inventory though so he won't get any trousers until he returns home or encounters a shop where I can buy something.

Can't you just mug some innocent bystander and take their trousers?
