Blood and Wine Story Issue - Three Days Later part
Hello everyone!
I am heavily dissatisfied with the last 3 hours of the Blood and Wine story.
To be more specific, I dislike the chain of events which occur right after finding Syanna (the three days later part).
As it is an RPG game, I am sure that the player should have an option to impact how the game turns out at that (and any) point. However, after Dettlaff vanishes we jump THREE DAYS later into the Beauclair palace with Regis and Geralt talking about how they have done nothing to find Dettlaff or bring Syanna to him during these three days. (Better do it earlier or at least TRY, before Dettlaff attacks the city, right??)
Three days is a lot of time for such powerful, experienced and skilled individuals. I know that either the writers made a terrible mistake with that part of the story, or something serious halted Geralt's and Regis' efforts (maybe Geralt lost his swords, or - was romancing someone, which would make more sense).
If the vampire attack on Beauclair is such an important part to the story, why not make a buildup to it? Did the developers have too little time? Did the writers change mid-productions (it seems likely, look at how certain characters behave before and after the Syanna reveal part, ex. Anna Henrietta).
I would like to see the answers to these questions and, maybe someday, see the "Three days later" part changed into another 2-3 hours of gameplay with additional quests, story and dialogues. After all, they added more romance scenes for Triss. Blood and Wine is the final adventure, make me give it that perfect score, give it (and the players) some special treatment. It wouldn't take much time and resources, and would definitely make everyone happy.
The devs could also add real romance to Blood and Wine, as they promised in the promotional materials. Instead we got a forced, unnatural and completely out of place scene with Syanna having no buildup or connection between the characters.
My opinion is that the duchess would be a good romance option for this DLC. Anyway, you could always choose between the duchess and her sister.
However, the lack of romance is not as disturbing as the cut-out content after you find Syanna.
Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions. Let us hope that the developers will see this and react.
