Geralt's look... always updated with new appearances

[Arkray_gog]

Heres an update on Geralts look! We have nothing to fear anymore!SEE, told ya the ponytail aint a big issue! ITS A DAMN STYLISH PONYTAIL! Keep it i say! Especially since it is more in line with the Original vision of Geralt.

That image looks much better, more scary, more a seasoned man. The eyes are still weird and the skin should have to be a bit paler, but at least the colors are better. I already suspected the colors in the trialer were too saturated

The trailer looks awful. It really sucks. I can see in this picture that maybe we could have some hopes that the game won't be like what we saw in the trailer. Still, this new Geralt looks like a jerk to me, but oh well. I won't look him in the face while playing. (And no, i don't have a problem with the hair, his mug is my problem. Is he wearing a lipstick, or is it my idea? ;D ).

If in the Witcher 2 Geralt will look like here:

Spoiler

then i'm happy

 

[gorthuar]

I think something is off with his nose. Is it bigger then in TW1?

 

[Mothra]

hihi, i mentioned his hair as well but didn't think ppl get so hung up about the pony tail. new hairstyle is good, geralt should change as well in character after all the bad things from TW1, it was just that in the trailer his hair looked different. not so grey and thin as in TW1 and no more big eagle nose. at least that jumped into my eyes. all in all, all those things are not THAT important. all the story/cutscene trailers for TW1 did not capture my attention, the gameplay trailers did. so WHAT ABOUT THOSE QUICKTIME EVENTS ? that is the pressing matter here. Will CDPR be able to implement the worst, lame and idiotic "feature" of the last years into the sequel of one of the best PC RPGs ? What are QTEs doing in an RPG anyways ? PS:I hope the resolute girl returns

Geralt of Rivia

Geralt I'm a fancy homo sex symbol

Did I make myself clear?I hope this is due to the WIP state.And the same goes for the other characters, I don't want the "after plastic surgery" version of them. That would be totally stupid, as well as horrible.

 

[katecheta]

Geralt looks too young now, he reminds me of that faggot Dante from Devil May Cry.

 

[Mothra]

please, show some maturity and respect and refrain from using misogynistic, racist, homophobic comments. it makes you look stupid and nobody will take your comments seriously except for the fact that you yourself are a dangerous idiot. find some constructive critisimn or inventive cusswords but sayin X looks like a faggot only shows that you seem to have no aesthetic eye whatsoever and are just incapable of having any opinion anybody else should care about. it also means you suck.

 

[BiggusD1]

i liked old Geralt look a lot better

 

[sanok16]

No, you did not make your self clear!I like his new face, it is more detailed then the previous and I don't see anything "homo" about it.

Don’t like this image, for me this is not Geralt.

 

[avaxx]

It's a matter of taste

 

[chaosapiant]

Yea, I"m not seeing the issue here. In the first game he was sloppy and had lost his memory. In this game, judging by the screenshots and trailer, he clearly knows who he is and what he's about. I've also seen screen caps of the original Polish tv series and comics and what not, and he looks much more like the Geralt in those images. I like it!

Ow, almost too evil, but I must admit: I like it.

First, thank you szypek26 for all information that you have provided.ALL HAIL szypek26! I will stay calm until more official images of Geralt come up.CD Project, Keep it up!

 

[Eri94_user70]

131 replies.... It's like the game can be totally crap and still people would enjoy it if Geralt would look and sound awesome. :Can't belive the fuzz.... How geralt look or sound is the smallest issue at the moment. Besides, i like his voice and he doesn't look that bad although i enjoyed his look in the alpha verision the most.

Well, I didn't really now which one topic to choose and finally I picked this one. Don't know if it fits best what I want to write... The important part is that I've got new info ;D-------------------Before reading this one, you should definitely become familiar with trailer and text on GAMESPOT and TEXT about how Reds are going to improve Geralt’s face etc.You should also know that the head visible on trailer belongs to Demawend, lord of Aedirn.-----------------Despite fact, that conference is going to be held tomorrow, some Polish journalists have already seen Geralt in action. Especially one text is very interesting, but it’s way too long to be translated. I’ll just give you most important info from it in pill, if you want, make Google translate it Story starts just after W1 left it. Main plot in story concentrates on king being killed. Plots from W1 are to be continued.There will be some flashbacks from period of time between Geralt’s death (in Saga) and beginning of W1.There will be W1’s save importing. It will cause your money, items and abilities carried to W2. Also decisions made in W1 will somehow affect W2.There are now no different combat styles. You can randomly join strikes with rolls, dodges, sings, firecrackers etc. into one combinations ended by powerfull fatality.There will be 3 types of Geralt’s development: sword-master, alchemist and sorcerer – the one you pick (by choosing abilities) will decide about bonuses and extra abilities. There will be companions helping Geralt. They fight and behave on their own [AI]. Geralt’s attitude to them will decide about game’s events and endings.While in dialogue, you’ll have to choose what Geralt shall say in some amount of time. If not managed to, game will decide for you, picking dialogue line that fits your actions most.Geralt will be able to meditate everytime, everywhere, but meditation could be disturbed now. There will be new mini-game related to mutagens creations.Game’s done in 60%, main story line is to take 25-30 hours. [About two weeks ago, Pan Karol said that whole story, including side missions will take 2-3 times more…]There’s possibility to make your own equipment (for example join sword’s blade with handle). There will be many things to use and to dress on.NPCs remember all of your actions, not only the latest ones and properly react them.NPCs live their own lives, following their needs, daily routine and day-night cycle.There will be four fractions – 1) Scoia'tael, 2) villagers, 3) merchants, 4) elves and dwarfs – all wanting something different from GeraltGenerally, game is going to focus rather on hard-to-make choices and mature story than fighting all the time. However, combat, drinking, alchemy, dating etc remain in game as its strong parts. Nonetheless, story’s most important for devs.http://polygamia.pl/Polygamia/1,95338,7695190,Zaden_plotek_nie_zatrzyma_Geralta__czyli_nasze_wrazenia.html--------------------------Dunno yet, but I’m considering releasing final version of my “W2 info collection” at the end of this week . Time will show what I shall do with that. Even if I had not – you can still translate my blog in Google. It’s not very accurate, but something is better than nothing

Guess I've to play Witcher again since I didn't keep my saves. Time pressure for choices seems a nice idea, so you can't think everything over and have to choose by intuition.

I hope the resolute girl returns

Heh, I'm pretty vertain she will.

 

[szypek26]

Guess I've to play Witcher again since I didn't keep my saves.

Nope. The text says also that while importing save's, game will adjust to them not to make player with saves have too easy gameplay. So if you won't have saves, I guess that you just will follow neutral path in the beggining

YOu my friend, ARE THE MAN! Those bits of info really give us a lot of what the witcher 2 looks like and plays like. Surprising though that so much "spoiler" type story plots are openly revealed though eh? Not that im complaining but usually developers dont give out much info on storylines. Fantastic NEWS MAN!
