The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2014, PC/NextGen): Game Informer March 2013 [Updated OP]
- Thread starter indigo-cyclops
- Start date
Considering they seem to be writing an engine specifically to handle "streaming", it stands to reason that this would be the case.

I can only assume it will have it. Based on their previous work, I can't imagine them cutting any form of mod support.
You're trying way too hard.
Hopefully not in the game, because it's completely stupid.

Hopefully he is still an expert at ploughing.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Up to 4 player ploughing arena!
The game play/trailer reveal will be tomorrow from CDPR.
Next Gen yo. Developers getting to flex some graphical muscle on a huge scale.
TW1 takes place at least five years after the books.
These are all legitimate complaints.
It's completely cool, go back to your JRPGs. These kind of games are too good for you.
This is some kind of weird reverse trolling where it's irritating in how bad it is at trolling rather than actually trolling anyone but then it does.

Geralt and Ciri fighting side-by-side? Yes, please!
Seriously though, whether there is co-op or not, I trust CD Projeckt Red to do a damn fine job in making the game fun.

Joke post?

That's not really a bold prediction, considering how TW1 and 2 respectively shat all over Dragon age 1 and 2. Something would have to go terribly wrong (or terribly well on Bioware's side) for TW3 to be inferior to DA3.
Stupid and awesome. Lets bring them back!

Lol... At the very least, I'm hoping for some major improvements to combat.
Noone is forcing you to plough.
From OP
Oh my.
He has a Gerald Butler look to him now.
So anyone knowledgeable enough to do a size comparison among the three: TW1, TW2 and Skyrim?
Ah, thank you.
Ah, thank you.
Me and my friends did Witcher Shots when we watched one dude play through it all. Those entailed doing shots every time a sex card got collected.

Boats and water physics are in. I would guess that these are usable?
There's a few pages of text here so I'm working on collecting the details, hang in there folks!
One thing I noticed in the screens is he has the fucking monster hook back. Did he have that in TW2? I can't even remember.
Sex scenes or cards, which do you prefer?
So basically, Skyrim done right.

I hope CDRP decide to tackle that challenge. We need a developer to show the rest how it's done.
What other open world RPG are they going to compare the world size too? There's really not many modern ones at all.

He looks too clean in that armour. Get him some dirtied boots and he aight.
From OP
Oh my.
He looks like he is about morph into a silver white werewolf. Absolutely fearsome.
Thank you.
I'd say it's guaranteed they'll carry the saves over, even if they do not influence the game much.

next gen games announcements coming one by one. I don't know how big skyrim is but if this game is bigger with what seems like good graphics from the character poster, does that look good for next gen specs? Are you guys satisfied with that big of an environment? I hope it means we don't have to worry if next gen can handle big open world environments with good physics and graphics.
In-game screens? Screenshots of the game? Does it look next-gen, whatever that means these days?
Gothic II
Fallout 1,2 and New Vegas
Morrowind
are some great open world games. I do hope CDPR is looking at older sandbox games and not just Skyrim because...well I don't like Skyrim.
Hmmmm, open world, will have to see it and hear impressions before I know if I like that idea.
However, TW2 with it's smaller chapter-based zones was already a bear to run even on a high-end PC so I can't imagine they'll keep quite the same fidelity in an open-world game as they had in that (though hopefully they work on their shadow quality regardless).
This will be the first game I'll really have to think about whether to get for my PC or Orbis (if indeed it comes to Orbis). I'll have to definitely see some impressions of the console version versus how the game is running on a comparable rig to my own (which isn't really a slouch).
Of course, if they mean PS3/360 rather than Orbis/Durango then PC is a a no-brainer.
I don't think there's one square foot of wasted, empty space in Gothic II, it's really perfectly sized and populated, but I don't think it was really all that large (been forever since I played it so maybe I'm remember wrong).
