Well, couldn't help, I had to spoil this part for myself, but it was worth it! The game looks absolutely great!
The dialogues has really been improved compared to TW2. One thing though, when Gran hands over tha dagger to Geralt, he just takes it then stands still, I think he should be examining it while Gran's talking, it would be more natural. Another one is where Gran's saying "Gotta bring the dagger". You can sense the urgency from her voice, yet she seems to be walking slowly, it looks odd.
Lastly, there shouldn't be dismemberment each time Geralt kills an enemy, there should be a balance and I'm sure there will be in the final version.
I only mention the negatives of course, because the rest is amazing, and that list would be way bigger. Thanks for sharing the gameplay with us!

Thanks. May your Ciri hunt be fruitful and with as few orphans in the way as possible
Here comes the map, fresh and edited together for you all~
It's not Vizima, it looks like the Nilfguardian military camp. Vizima is not a part of the open world it's too far south
Makes sense. We do see the Emperor sitting in Vizima's throne room, but I guess it's also how Kaer Mohren is in the trailer as well. Likely just for the prologue and then you get scooted into main game.

It's not Vizima, but in Temeria - or rather Velen.
It seems like ever since Vizima has fallen, Gors Velen is a new capital of an independent nation.
That is why the REDs must be referring to this region as Velen.
So obviously that massive river would be the Pontar which would mean Oxenfurt is that smaller city to the right above it. But isn't that a bit close to Novigrad if that's the case?

Now that is what I wanted to see! I'm going to be exploring as much of that open world as I can! I'm loving Novigrad and the forests as well as THAT soundtrack, bloody epic! That map is looking incredible, I can't wait to see it full size on the screen!
My hype level has gone up by 100! CDPR you are awesome! :hatsoff:

I'll be quick. This gameplay is glorious, last two minutes gave me a huge amount of feels...
Combat flows like water, and I was also fascinated by the expressions and body language, it soon becomes clear when Geralt is curious, worried, or is pissed.
Map. BIG FAT AWESOME map, yeah.
The environments are charming, especially the forest infested with werewolves... And the game is still WIP.
I want to be quick just to say: thank you REDs, thank you guys, really.
Damn.

The last bandit equipped with shield loses it with a kick to the groin.
I think it would be better if Geralt kicked the shield hitself to make the enemy lose the grip or snatched it out of his hands.
Apart from that, the AI doesn't seem that bright, because once Geralt is sourrounded and gives his back to one opponent, that one stands still for several seconds, without taking advantage of that mistake.
Fortunately we have seen a side pirouette, but not a duck-under one. Let's hope that they implement it.
Some extra special effect for the witches summoning and for their arrival to take their tribute would make those scenes perfect.
On a last note, I'd say sometimes in cutscenes the music is too loud,
they should tune it lower in favor of dialogues' volume.

Thanks a lot, but somehow at the moment i'm only able to watch it in 540p 60fps, which looks not even as good as the youtube version at 1080p. Anybody else got the same problem?
You can download the full five gigabytes of it from the same site and not worry about streaming troubles.
