So I know that minigames like car racing and boxing have been confirmed, and I’m really excited for all of those. Really excited.
But here’s my question: Will there be minigames or activities that slow down the pace and offer a break from high tension situations?
Gwent did this perfectly in the Witcher 3 (the other Witchers had similar games). NOTE: I’m not pushing for a Gwent equivalent card game. Will there be something like gambling, poker (RDR2’s poker achieved a similar pacing/break effect), arcade-esque video games within the overall game (Fallout 4 did this well), or even just side activities that aren’t fast paced (take Fallout 4’s base decorating for instance).
Car racing and boxing are awesome. I’ll spend hours on those. Shooting range and hacking? Sign me up. But what about when I want to kick back after a long day of getting my stabby stab on with my mantis blades? Racing is fast paced. Boxing is combat still, just with lower stakes and a bit lighter, competitive tone.
I’m looking for something that will mitigate combat or adrenaline-rush-like burnout. I’m looking for something that V can do in their spare time that makes them more relatable as a character, since even Geralt of Rivia needed a break now and then to do something peaceful.
I don’t need specifics that would spoil CDPR surprises, and I have 100% confidence that you all have already whipped up and implemented exactly what I’m talking about. I just want confirmation that something like that DOES exist, since I haven’t run across that question in interviews yet.
Again, I’m not asking, “Will there be a cardgame like Gwent.” I’m just asking about chill activities to balance out the fast-paced stuff.
Thanks for your time, and sorry about the mini novel this post turned into, or if someone already asked this and I just missed the question.
TL;DR: Will there be chill games or side-activities to balance out the faster-paced ones like racing/boxing?
