Armor in the W3

Not sure if this was posted already, so apologies in advance.

Let's see who likes which armor. My favorite one is in slide 2, the one in the middle, on the right.

 

[Windhelm_Guard]

I like all hooded ones, we didnt have that in windhelm. Stingy Ulfric is being a &*#@&*$

This is amazing. More different types of armor unlike The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim which has Daedric armor, Dwarven armor, Ebony armor, Elven armor, Fur armor, Iron armor, Leather armor, and Steel armor. I love it when video games have so many different types of armor and especially when the video game development companies add more and more armor. Seeing the same armor over and over again bores me LOL.

Thanks.

 

[Pajkes]

Oh they are all great to me.Especially those with hoods.

 

[Garrison72]

In all honesty, I'm not a fan of about a third of those concept armors. They look more appropriate for Scottish warriors, not a Witcher. Why did they decide to bulk things up so much? Isn't a Witcher all about speed and mobility?

 

[Kaldea]

I like the tighter looking ones. The bigger, flowy armor sets look like they'd only get in the way with his style of fighting. But who knows, I'm sure I just need to see them in the game to be convinced.

I'm not sure if 27 is final number of armors but I think though I'm not certain that they said there would be more than 30 sets of armor for Geralt.

Well 27 is fine for me and you know...........the more - the better but I would be fine with 27 too.

Almost all of them are awesome looking to me.Some are perhaps less 'Witchery' but most are badass for sure.

Also at least one armor is not present there and that would be that steel armor:

Or it's there but because art is in black and white I can't recognise it lol

I know that "bigger ones" existed and were even used in combat. But how u imagine Geralt spinning around in battle wearing like half of these? They are more suitable for merchants, not agility warrior like Geralt.. Not sure at all..

 

[bigboss9191]

nice!

Perhaps he will receive agility penalties while wearing them but also getting bonus to armor ? That's the most reasonable thing to me at least.
I also guess there will be more armor which look..........'Witchery' .

 

[Kinley]

People need to understand these are early concepts, so they might not even make it in the game. Furthermore, the two armors that are confirmed (the ones we've seen in the trailers) are not there.

I am sure these are the basic "designs". Then there will color variations on these sets.Depending on region you might get different materials and visual designs on these basic designs.Just my guess.

 

[GamaH]

The bulky armors look encumbering -- not necessarily because of their weight, but rather, their bulk.

I hope there aren't major clipping issues, too.

 

[HeelPower]

Aren't there cold particularly cold areas in the game ? In addition to that I believe the game is set in winter ?

I think many of them appear to be designed to keep geralt warm.

Indeed and I like it.

 

[Blothulfur]

Hah, what need have I of armour? Give me my axe of tempered steel, give me a pair of comfortable trews and i'll face down any foe, give me a kilt to wear and the enemy will be even more discomfitted by Mr Winky glaring at them mid combat as I spin and pirouette! I face danger bare chested and with a broad grin.

 

[randyrhoads]

Really hated the hooded ones in TW2, hope these live up to the concept art.

Unless there are literally negative effects if Geralt is wearing less bulky armour in cold areas, then I don't buy that argument.
