Honestly after their absolute shit show with cyberpunk I’m more excited to sit back and watch them fuck it up again than for the game. They’ve lost my respect and their credibility as developers. I will pirate anything from them
They fixed CP2077 and as a matter of fact the game is pretty good, plus they are a European company so we should support them.
Looks great… but it uses Unreal Engine 5
What’s wrong with unreal engine 5…
Performance mostly. But also even when made by various AAA studios, the resulting games often have this uncanny similar-ness to them. Personally i prefer in-house engines even if its just to maintain variety in the industry.
Also obligatory shout out to id tech for continuing to show off their engines with indiana jones.
Super hyped, I’ve wanted a sequel with Ciri since finishing 3.
Please don’t Cyberpunk this up, CDPR…
what does that mean, cyberpunk is awesome
It took over a year before it was made into something worthwhile.
As with The Witcher 3, which is now regarded as one of the best games of all time.
Witcher 3 came out in May of 2015 and set the record for goty awards at the time. I don’t think it took that long to patch it up.
I distinctly remember it taking at least until the first expansion for it to be considered one of the greats. GOTY Awards have never been a true tell for quality of a game in my opinion.
Witcher 3 was buggy, but still a great game at launch. No so with Cyberpunk.
I disagree respectfully, I personally compare them.
They will cyberpunk this, because they also witchered Cyberpunk. As in “delivered less than promised and then mostly fixed it with patches”.
And I’m quick to forget that Witcher 3 had some nasty bugs at launch, too. I was stuck with at that damn giant in the ice cave for like a month before they fixed it.
Yep, it’s their business model. People were pissed about Cyberpunk because they’d only played Witcher 3 after it was complete.
Can’t wait to see the Netflix adaptation again with Henry Cavill as Ciri.
I would crowdfund the shit out of that.
You’re joking but I feel like that would satisfy EVERYONE’s fantasies
Just cast him as all the roles. in everything
He’s busy… Doing everything
Is it just me or is her face a bit weird? Like too much jaw?
I’d love to play the game as Ciri though, hope they make up a good story, it felt the Wild Hunt was her story, IDK what can top that.
It looks like they created a monster trying to fit a bunch of features in a face. It’s on all thumbnails, same as clickbait videos. It’s a marketing stunt.
Reminds me of xiv. It always looks great ingame but half the time their cgi trailers mess up peoples face anatomy
Might be a character redesign. Geralt definitely got that treatment from 2 to 3.
And from 1 to 2, which was desperately needed.
Her face looks longer to me. I assume they’re trying to make her look more like a real person.
She looks like a supermodel, what weird gooner take is this.
I was not commenting on her attractiveness, just that the defining character features seem to be different. She doesn’t look “older” or less attractive to me from Wild Hunt, just a different person.
It’s not as bad as when they dropped the voice actor for Sam Fisher in Splinter Cell though.
Dread it. Run from it. Witcher 4 with playable CIri still arrives.
I was hoping for Eskel or Letho to be honest. Ciri is a safe choice but a bit on the boring side. Eskel would have been a lot more multi-layered protagonist and dialogues would have been funnier.
I was praying for Letho even though we all knew it was going to be Ciri (for better or worse, we’ll see).
Leaning into the moral grey of the Witcher world with Letho would have been awesome, he says (in one of the endings to his story) he’ll head out east over the mountains so we could have gotten some all-new environments and it would have been 100% CDPR IP so they could have done whatever they wanted without trampling over lore too much. Plus Letho is just an amazing character with huge protagonist energy. Oh well.
Same. I was hoping for a totally different story or a different time period entirely. Instead it’s just boring Ciri again. Rip.
Here goes the cycle anew. Thank you CD project red and all the consoomers happily enabling then.
I hope she knows how to play Gwent.
I liked gwent. Tried the app, didn’t understand wtf was happening, deleted it.
Wow.
