there used to be this loooong thread here, talking about Geralt's appearances and look...... tons of complaints, tons of angry fans...... hell, I remember nothign but just
hell in the pre releasing period
Eventually, a few days before the releasing, there was this stresming interview with Tomasz Gop and Trevor Longino, explaining that:
1. Geralt's face has been changed both ingame and in the cover and why (Gop said: we listened to our fans and we changed Geralt's face...")
2. You could actually play the game with k+m, without needing controller
3. a few other nicies
This basically becoz after one of the previous conference (still W2 was on alpha test) people watched a dev holding a controller in front of an audience and they shouted disgusted "eek! CDP! you betrayed us! So it's true! You're making it for console! It's insane! You're liars!" (and in case you're wondering, no, I'm not joking).
This is (part of) the story of how W2 is born.
