That line did sound a bit off, but not because it used profanity. It sounded off because no one uses that particular swear word in that way. An f-bomb wouldn't have felt as out of place. I disagree that the line would be better off without profanity however. Dexter is a gangster of sorts, or at...

Has this been posted yet? I could imagine that playing in some Night City nightclub, the DJ making a statement about the kind of future corporate rule promises. That drop after "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face forever" is amazing.

I like this gang concept. Probably the one I'm most looking forward to meeting in CP 2077.

100 coins being heavier than 15 swords & shields? Not even close. Most coins aren't going to be gold either, at least realistically. Bronze, Copper, and Silver were all far more common. Not to mention that 100 coins can easy fit into a leather pouch while 15 shields and 15 swords cannot. At...

This. I'm not a fan of lots of vendor trash in RPGs because it also usually means suspending disbelief as your character hauls 15 swords and 12 shields to the nearest vendor. Not to mention oddities like killing a lion that drops money or a potion.

People will definitely abuse it. I think giving gamers anything more than 1 day with a game before they can get a full refund is giving them too much. Even an absolutely massive game like RDR2 can be completed in less than 30 days. Allowing full refunds for up to one month is just going to...

I don't think it has been confirmed that all those places will be in the game. The video is mostly a lore dive of the pen & paper source material. I'm sure we'll see some of them but I doubt all of them will be major locations within the video game.

The game's take on Triss was a bit of a different interpretation from the books as well. Book Triss does not have cherry red hair, her hair is described as "kasztanowy" which is more like auburn or chestnut in English. Of course you're free to not like the TV series' casting choice, but a lot...

Companions that travel with a player character never really add anything in terms of gameplay, and can even be annoying when the A.I. decides to do dumb things. The "benefit" of having companions is just for the dialogue they provide while in your party. I don't think CD Projekt Red needs to go...

Just to be clear, that isn't something I posted. I'd chalk V's familiarity with firearms up to being partially raised by gang-members, in a violent neighborhood, training provided by a Corporate employer, or a youth spent Mad Maxing with Nomad clans.

They may not possess the same level of proficiency as a military professional, but they'd have enough familiarity with firearms to be dangerous. See Afghanistan, Chechnya, ect. V being capable with firearms from the game's start is hardly far-fetched.

The combat zones are no different. The residents mostly live in abject poverty in slums, law enforcement is nonexistent, and gangs have carved out fiefdoms where the civil authorities have little to no actual authority. Disputes between those gangs are not infrequently settled by violence, hence...

Not necessarily. Keep in mind that most of the soldiers who fight real world wars are also either in their teens, or not long out of it. Wars are primarily fought by 18-22 year old men. There are plenty of 19 year old privates or Lance Corporals in the world who are capable of putting lead into...

Shepard is far from being a blank slate. An example of a blank slate protagonist would be the main character in Skyrim. Blank slates have no set personalities and function mainly as a vehicle for the player to imagine themselves in the game world.

That would be my preference. Geralt & other familiar characters could always return as NPCs you interact with on various quests.
