looks like a neat 50% off pick-up (after all the patches/dlc/QOL mods)

Awesome, options, options are always good. I quite dig a very close camera, just like CDPR added to Witcher 3, but this won't always be ideal.
This quote by the IGN dude sounds damn good:
"Compared to Witcher 3 or Vampyr, The blood of Dawnwalker captures that open ended, free form nature of classic RPGs like Gothic I and II."

Listening to customer base and improving on the product in meaningful way, trully refreshing in this day and age, coz many western devs go to is not even to ignore community/players complains but to call them names flat out instead
U can tell from Rebel Wolves behaviour right there they do put in their very souls into the game, its not just another boring game project for them

I'm retarded?
What Bloodlines 2 should've been. Hopefully this will satiate the thirst for vampire games since I doubt Bloodlines 2 will do anything good.

Combat around 4:45 looks pretty fun.

This looks really good. It might not be a popular opinion, but I like the time restriction quest idea.
Zooming out the camera makes the game feel so much better. I'm looking forward to this game.

Was just going to comment how the camera in the OP video looks to be further away than in the previous gameplay we had seen.
It's pretty crazy how a relatively simple change like that makes it looks way better now.
From my understanding it's not like a real time timer right?
It's more like certain actions in the game will make the time advance. If so I think that's a neat concept.

Absolutely hyped for this game and a mixture of the Witcher 3 and Dishonored is nothing but a win win for me, i'm really looking forward to the Blood of Dawnwalker.

Combat looks boring and I really need more variety than just sword attacks for the entire game. The hex magic or whatever they mentioned better allow in depth builds that can stand on their own without needing sword attacks.
Hate time limit in games and I can see this one needing a mod asap. Not feeling the story much either to be honest.
On the other hand, world looks good for exploration, graphics are decent and traversal looks fun.
Overall, not sold yet.

Wish they'd outsource the combat, but the world/story stuff sounds interesting.
I don't really care for the clear split between doing missions in vampire or human form. I would prefer having the ability to change your approach on the fly. From what was shown, the human stuff seems really boring compared to the vampire side.

Something about the running animation is not sitting well with me. Hope they change it.

I already saw devs post it by themselves on Dawnwalker subreddit.
I commented they should also add third person camera option for abilities they have currently as a first person. Comment is getting traction.
Such a simple change would make combat more fluid to me.
That depends if they will listen though.

This looks excellent and the soundtrack is even better. I believe the studio used some of the same performers as Witcher 3 did.
If it reviews well I will support the studio and buy it.

Looks like Witcher 1 with modern graphics. And that's fantastic (Witcher 1 being my favourite of the 3 games.)

I was thinking the same thing. I'm really looking forward to this.

Looks much better than it did last time.
Obviously, we haven't seen much of either game but this definitely isn't a good look for Bloodlines 2.
The whole Chinese Room probably shitting themselves right now.

Quite sold on it with those new previews. Vampire witcher with Dishonored blink traversal? Uhm yes? The traversal looks really good in this.

The Blood of Dawnwalker's Complex Notoriety System Outlined by Rebel Wolves
Article: Among all of this is the notoriety system. As creative director Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz explained to IGN, slaying Brencis's forces can result in obstacles but may benefit the player in unforeseen ways.
"As you gain more notoriety in the valley, as you do these acts against Brencis, he won't stay passive. He will enact these edicts that will hamper your progression. So he might send out more soldiers into the streets, or patrolling the roads, or enforce a curfew. So now it's more difficult to feed at night."Other NPCs will take note of your notoriety as well, and it could provide an edge when dealing with certain factions. "It's not just Brencis and his soldiers, it's also the people in the valley. They will recognize you and be afraid of you. So, in some quest situations, it actually might be helpful. There are some factions that fight against Brencis; they don't like him. So building up notoriety is actually a good way to gain a good standing with them."
Whether the player engages with all this, immersing themselves in the world of Dawnwalker or beelines it to Brencis is up to them. It's one reason why the title is so intriguing, and the development team's pedigree is just the cherry on top.
