Is Gerald fat??

[jj284b]

for look, im usually using the ponytail he has in the game menu. Also usually clean shaven, but i dont pay too much attention to beard.. usually i'm out in Velen on quests, so only go to shave when i have to sell stuff/resupply.

but back to armor - i think it would be better if armors were deleveled (dont see why Geralt would be not able to use high quality armor just because he is few levels behind.. usually those armors are hard to get anyway), and a bit redesigned. Light armors should provide more stamina, but should be not that good at stopping hits. medium armors should have good resistances, but usually these were lightened version with much less coverage than heavy pieces. And heavy should be able to stop normal swords and weapons (no AP), but should be hard on stamina.

Just take off the armor and you will see if he is fat or not

I wouldn't want to see this kind of armour in a Witcher game ever. There are plenty of other games which do this. This series' artistic style is one of the major selling points for me.

I Absolutely agree. Actually armors in Witcher 3 are made with realism in mind, especially those heavy armors with "belly" plates. Just check same facts about mediaval warfare.

Witcher 2 armors were the most beautiful armors I've ever seen in videogames, films and cartoons.

From Wikipedia
"A cuirass (/kwɨˈræs/; French: cuirasse, Latin: coriaceus) is a piece of armour, formed of a single or multiple pieces of metal or other rigid material which covers the front of the torso. In a suit of armour, the cuirass was generally connected to a back piece. Cuirass could also refer to the complete torso-protecting armour.

In Hellenistic and Roman times, the musculature of the male torso was idealized in the form of the muscle cuirass or "heroic cuirass" (in French the cuirasse esthétique) sometimes further embellished with symbolic representation in relief, familiar in the Augustus of Prima Porta and other heroic representations in official Roman sculpture. As parts of the actual military equipment of classic antiquity, cuirasses and corsets of bronze, iron, or some other rigid substance were used. Secondary protection for the breast was worn in earlier times by men-at-arms in addition to mail hauberks and reinforced coats. It was not until the 14th century that the plate armour became an established part of medieval armour."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxkb-a0f9Wc, this video provides some additional info on the subject of the cuirass, which comes from the french for boiled leather "cuir bouilli". I'll let Matt Easton of Scolagladitoria tell you all about it ...

if you would check same facts about mediaval warfare you would have know that there is more than one type of breastplate

@Walshy71 u mad bro?

 

[Captmorgan72]

First of all you don't even know his name and second you post pics that doesn't show a big gut but a barrel chest, which of course is the armor and not his body. I'm guessing you know nothing of the Witcher series and are probably a kid.

 

[cyberpunkforever]

take out his armor and see it for yourself

 

[xxgwxx]

Is it a serious question?

Best response to this.
His armour might look fat, but he definetely is not!

Who is Gerald?

Very funny. Round breastplates are actually the most effective at deflecting blows and even arrows.

Rounded armour is so effective that it was used up to and including World War 1.
