I love Witcher 3 but I truly despise Gwent. Please CD Project Red, give us back Dice Poker. PLEASE
Dear Cd Project Red.
I am loving the game. The many features, the exploration, the combat, all of it.
But I am getting sick of gwent. I am following guides. Buying all cards I can. Playing and playing. And losing and losing. Fair enough. Same thing happened in Dice Poker in Witcher 1 and 2. No problem.
My problem...is when I play against some random merchant in Novigrad. Not an expert or something. And He plays...3 !! 10 power cards and 1 7 power card versus my 4-5's and such. In dice poker everything was RNG. I loved that. Kept me on the seat of my chair. It was awesome and I had a fair chance on winning. Won some lost some. I kept at it.
But here... What...am I possibly supposed to do. I can handle RNG. But what I can't handle is a game thats so pay to win oriented which is SUCH...a shame. I dont like running all over the world due to some IGN gwent card walkthrough in order to win a few matches versus some random merchant betting only 10 gold max who has this super OP as hell deck.
With that said. Im not a card player. I dont like working inside my games. I just wanna play, have fun and Dice poker was exactly that. You just sat down, made a bet, rolled the dice and allowed fortune to handle the rest.
I am trying and trying gwent but it strikes me as lackluster, unfair and considering a random merchant having 3 10 power cards...HIGHLY unbalanced as well.
I hope...no wait...I PRAY you guys will consider porting some kind of Witcher 1-2 dice poker in Witcher 3, because horse racing and fist fighting --which is great fun--- is lacking the highly loved game from the originals that is dice. Gwent is work, not fun. I wanna relax while playing some of these mini-games. I can't in Gwent because unlike dice poker where RNG could decide the outcome of the MOST UNLIKELY situation and grant you victory at the brink of defeat. Gwent here...determines the outcome of a battle the moment the game starts because the deck which is premade...is either stronger or weaker.
I dont care if its gonna be DLC or gonna take months... I just really hope you will consider putting Dice Poker back in the game because no matter my deck, no matter my victories, no matter my reward. I think that if I manage to unlock the romance option with the Madame through Gwent...I will...never... play gwent again. And that...is sad. Whereas poker I enjoyed playing however, whenever because it was fun, relaxing and completely balanced. Expert player or not. It was all chance. Gwent doesn't have that and like you self highlighted in your post; Its a pay to win mini-game. Well Cd Project Red. I love WItcher 3...but I really...really...dont like that game which bothers me since I wanna explore all the features of Witcher 3 with joy.
Please consider Dice Poker no matter how tricky or time consuming which you might doubt we'll be able to handle it is. We, your fans are patient and understanding and many of us would like Dice back.
