It's mostly PR talk, not really addressing the criticisms from the reviews. Here's Part 2 of the issue at hand https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGNTDAOfeCQ. The next video will contain information from a confirmed ex-employee. CDProjekt Red ruined the Witcher 3 for me, and I'm beginning to see...

I do believe they will succeed for these reasons: Game Director: Mateusz Kanik (Lead gameplay designer for W2) Lead Writer: Sebastian Stępień (Lead writer and dialogue designer for W2) I don't know who else is in charge but at least these are two RED veterans. I just hope they can make the...

Witcher 2 combat (enhanced edition) was near perfect. All they needed to do was add more animations and incorporate the pirouette dodge, more contextual parrys and ripostes, more flash in the signs, and other superficial stuff. The groundwork was perfect. You would aim at an opponent, click...

The number 500 is worrying because if you look at what they did with witcher 3 (loot junk simulator, boring unnecessary quests, pointlessly huge open world), they need 100's of people to create all the meaningless assets and content needed in an open world. The only thing that helps me sleep at...

I blame open world and Ciri. Man, the quality of storytelling in W2 is something you only find in novel's. W2 was so well paced, and you felt like everything you were doing was important in finding the kingslayer. The character, the conspiracy, the conflict... W2 was so unique and bold in what...

The story wasn't as interesting as in Witcher 2, that is my biggest gripe with the game. It's the main reason I played witcher 2 so many times, and played witcher 3 only once.

I hope not! She messes up the story wherever she goes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5pycqmx0ec Check out this combat compilation that was done before the game came out. Look at all the nice animations, where did they all go?

I hate the combat! - Geralt feels way too sluggish. - It's difficult for Geralt to run towards or away from enemies when in combat mode. - When Geralt goes into combat mode, he walks towards the enemies at a painfully slow rate (and sprinting towards them feels very unresponsive and...

Doesn't look good. You know the guy who did the armors for witcher 2, bring him back please!!!

What is this "A new, alternative (optional) movement response mode for Geralt"

I would prefer if the witcher senses were used in a game mechanic (like in solving puzzles) rather than just a narrative tool (which helps tell the story of what happened when examining an object of interest).

I think when most people on the Forum talk about "dumbed down politics" we are referring to the whole Henselt dies anyway, Saskia goes missing, Radovid is just a mad hatter, etc. Basically pretending Witcher 2 never existed.

I think the problems with Witcher 3 will take too much time and effort to fix. I think CDPR should just focus now on CP2077. When witcher 2 came out, it only needed some gameplay tweaks and some additional cut scenes and missions which CDPR was able to to. Lets take for instance the dumbed down...

The devs need to take a different approach to difficulty for CP2077
