The only difference between listening to him talking out loud and hearing his thoughts is that he moves his lips. Out of all the problems this game has, you chose this one to complain about. What a great ******* logic.

People or mutant or Geralt who dwell a lot of time alone in sewers, jungle and roads, won't ever be normal.
In real life, see the truckers when do their job, they are surely love talking to themself when something on the roads happens.
A lonely job always produce people who like to talk to themself.

How do I know this ? Because I'm a 3D modeler who love to yell to those Vertex from hell.

If they did make it hear his thoughts more often then people would be on here complaining that his lips aren't moving while he is talking :p

Seriously though OP I never really noticed this... I just took it as a another way to hear what Geralt was thinking not as something odd...

I kinda like it, especially the talking to Roach. You gotta have someone or something to talk to on the road!

They also joke with it in the pan quest in White Orchard, where Geralt inspects a body (if I remember right) and the old lady hears it :)

He is thinking out loud cause it's a computer game, how else is he going to convey to YOU the player what he's thinking about when he is analyzing evidence? Derp

I've had NPCs respond to his thinking out loud and I even heard one tell him to stop talking to himself. So he definitely is saying the stuff out loud in the game.

looks like people are taking a GAME so seriously . why not enjoy instead of comparing with real life and hoping it to b like one . just have fun and treat it like a game

I like it, as a person who lives pretty much a recluse, I find myself walking around talking to myself aloud just happens. In game I always just thought of it as he is talking to Roach and or Yen/Triss like they are there with him. (as for myself, no excuse :p )

Very basic question. I was wondering about the thought process behind making Geralt always think out loud instead of merely letting the player hear his thoughts.

There's actually a quest in the first zone that makes fun of it. It's called "Frying Pan Spick and Span".

The old lady mocking Geralt for talking to himself is still in my top 5 favorite moments in the game. I laffed so hard.

there was suppose to be an .ini setting that let's you disables it, something like "selfmuttering" or "geraltmuttering", but I haven't found that anywhere... not like I've looked for it a lot, but, ya know...

He's thinking out loud Dowlphin, but only you can hear it. It's a "forth wall" kind of deal. ;)

Nope, other people are conscious of what Geralt says. This is actually poked fun at a little when Geralt is talking to himself about the murder of a guy in the Pan quest in White Orchard. The old woman who gave him the contract can hear him talk to himself and asks what he's saying. Geralt gets a little embarrassed and quickly replies that he said nothing.
I think he's done this since the first game, but I can't remember honestly. I know he did it in the second. It's an easy way to communicate Geralt's thoughts/ what's going on.
If we just heard his inner thoughts instead of hearing him speak, that would be kind of dumb to me. It's just unnatural for the player to hear a voice and not see anyone talk. That's just my opinion though.

Really? My Roach always leaves alone me looking for food... ALWAYS! Perhaps she avoids hear my own outloud reflexions :p

I don't mind that he thinks out loud. I just wish he'd do it in a way that is less helpful. I know there's a place of power there Geralt you don't need to tell me your medallion is vibrating.

Well... It´s not that uncommon for people who spend most of their time alone to talk to themselves x)
