I'm going to BSG (Brasil Game Show)! Post your questions about The Witcher 3

I got some free time this Friday and I will be able to go to Brasilian Game Show! So, in similar way to @Kinley trend, post your quesntions and doubts about the game. I will pick the most voted ones and will bring to the devs present at the fair tomorrow.

I am very sorry for the short anounce. I was not going until some minutes ago (life as a importer/foreing trader is troublesome lol).

So, post your questions
@marcin360 , wich devs will be present?

A good weekend for all and i see you Brazilian Wichers and CD RED devs at the fair!

 

[kl4user.679]

Most voted? Just ask anything that was not asked 3.6 billion times before

At this point I think we've gotten as many answers as CDPR is willing to give, they're probably saving specific details about lots of systems and mechanics so they can use it for footage in their final marketing push during Jan/Feb.

If you get a proper interview, all I can say is please just ask related questions to the person you get.

If you get an Art guy, ask Art/Character related questions. If you get a level designer, try to ask level design and environment related questions... etc. If you're forceful with a few interesting questions and questions that are actually related to the Developers job, I'm sure you might be able to get something interesting out of it.

Edit: Well looks like you're just going to get general guys (Marcin is CEO and Tadek is just a CM, no specific developers), so I guess just ask whatever you think is appropriate

(Try to get some clarification on the Alchemy System perhaps? - for like the 4th time :dizzy

 

[Phinnway]

You could ask some question about the map. We pretty much already know there are two maps, but it would be nice to get further confirmation from the devs.

• Is sailing a scripted section we only do once? Or can we sail between Skellige and Novigrad as much as we want?
  
• Are there specific "landings" we have to dock our boat at? Or can we go ashore at any time we want?
  
• Is possible to swim to The Skellige Islands?
  
• Does Witcher 3 have acts like other Witcher games? And if so how does that work in an open-world?

 

[HellKnightX88]

1. Is the alchemy system still being worked on and if possible could you guys give a detailed clarification on how the refill and upgrade mechanic will work?

2. Is Dol Blathanna in or any of the areas originally planed for the TW2 that couldn't make it in the final version of TW2?

 

[Scryar]

I would like to know how many different visitable regions the game will have. We know of Skellige, Novigrad+No Man's Land (if you count this as one region), Kaer Morhen and probably Vizima or parts of Vizima. I don't want to spoil them the names of the regions(I think they need to keep some need informations for their last marketing months), just a number so I can speculate

 

[ek79]

Ariate, just sent you a PM.

 

[gully58]

Hello!
I´m from spain, and all you know that in this country we are a little bit uncultured in other lenguage.
I want you to apologice for my English.

I want to know if geralt will be afected by the weather of diferent areas, like snow or heavy rain.
It will be interesting if you wear a heavy armour and it increase one defense point if you wear it in snow areas, but decrease if you are in swamp.

Thank you.

What are your post launch plans for Witcher 3 and do you plan to add more mechanics and features if they are requested by fans and would you add expansions which will include additional land mass like for example a trip to Zerrikania would be awesome?

Simply put: For how long and how much you plan to support Witcher 3 after it's release?

Also it would be nice if they could officially confirm if Vizima and Oxenfurt are in the game and to what extent.

Also one small question,it's so trivial that they might actually answer it: Will we be able to use torches like we saw in Sword of Destiny trailer and like we could in Witcher 1.

Also ask them about mini games,dice potentially returning after game's release,drinking alchol,consumables (food) and for love of everything ask them to explain alchemy system and will that dumbed down refilling system remain and if so will there be different game modes in which alchemy will be more complex and thus more fun for people who value that.

So ask them also about hardcore mode.

How many monsters are there (DIFFERENT ones not variations) cause so far we got conflicting numbers.

Ask them about horses and will we able to store items on them and upgrade them with some light armor for example and how many races of them they have...just ask them everything about them.Bonus points if you ask them literally this:

Will they be as stupid and unuseful as Skyrim's? (gaming journalits will have months of material) :troll:

Just please,please,please,please don't ask them same copy/paste CNNish mainstream game 'media' asks them.

Ask them about horses and will we able to store items on them and upgrade them with some light armor for example and how many races of them they have..

To add to this. If horses can store items.
can you manage the horse storage; while buying/selling at the store?

It would be a bit silly to go back and forth, taking items in and out of horse storage to achieve the same outcome.

Also would some of the swords show up on the horse, like in the killing monsters trailer?

.......................................................................
I'm aware that cloaks have kind of been discussed as being hard to do, but if possible i would really like to see the one from the killing monsters trailer in the game.
Equipable as it's own item.
A lot of the capes from concept art were attached to the torso.

I noticed some of the costumes had a face mask (that covered up to his nose), while others had a hood. What i would like to be able to do is wear a hood and face wrap/ mask at the same time.

And have the ability to put the hood up and down. (this would also apply to to the cloak from the killing monsters if it is in the game).
.......................................................................
The ability to change or buy an armour set in one go , rather than piece, by piece. [IMPORTANT]
(If i have full bear and wolf armour with me and want to switch between both.
I don't really want to do it a piece at a time, each time).

well, if you don't shy away from asking some questions ask Marcin about the exclusive content of Xbox One's collector's edition

- Why didn't he chose a way to support his partner that didn't involve upsetting his fans and betraying his "values"? Why not, for example, one of the suggestions in the thread about it - a custom Witcher themed X1, bundled with the game (IMHO, a more reasonable "exclusive" because I think it does not harm PC or PS fans)

- Many people thought that when he said they would no make exclusive content, he really meant it, not just digital stuff as it seems to be the case in virtue of what happened, so, can we expect exclusive physical content in CDPR's future games, like Cyberpunk 2077?

- I thought the pre-orders would have started yesterday, but apart from one single site which does not even have any photo or accurate info, I can not find it anywhere, so when exactly? And I think it's only the standard, so when are the pre orders for the collector's edition start and why is it more expensive buying it here than importing it?

- About the localization, only the physical editions will have portuguese or will the digital versions also have it? This is a console question - It seems only the brazilian PS store gives the games with our language, if you buy from US store, you'll not have the pt-br option (I don't know if this is Sony's limitation or whatever) and it seems Xbox does not have this issue. Also, the CE will also come with the pt-br files or will they have to be downloaded?

- Who is responsible for the translation? CDPR itself, Thomasz Barcinski or some other third party? Is it from polish to portuguese or english to portuguese?

- Finally, ask him this: given the aforementioned questions, what would he say to persuade us into buying the CE? There's a conflict in my family


Ps. Forget about the pre-order of the standard edition, it's appearing everywhere now. And a "question" for you. After you see the demo, tell us about it. I know it will be the same, but I've read something about a placeholder dubbing or something (lil weird). But, from UOL, Geralt's VA is Sérgio Moreno - awesome

 

[Jack Bauer 24]

Can you ask about the GAF insider and about the graphics downgrade?

 

[guilhermecn]

Can you ask about the GAF insider and about the graphics downgrade?

They will most certainly refrain from answering or will be evasive about the insider. About the downgrade I will talk to them about it

 

[randyrhoads]

Are the REDS going to adress the dodging animation, based on the negative feedback?

 

[ek79]

At BGS !!

[kl4user.679]

@ariate, another question, if I may !!

Ask Marcin how the game will be called here. Seeing some pictures, I think it will be called "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" and I thought it would be "The Witcher 3: A Caçada Selvagem" because I'd seen it somewhere before.

 

[schinderhannes.999]

Probably pointless to ask any game mechanic-specific questions (and maybe get yet another even more confusing answer) but:

1. Auto-refilling potions/bombs/oils/whatnot - has this approach definitely been canned in favor of having to actively brew potions (with multiple charges) during meditation à la The Witcher 2?

2. Are they aware of the Witcher Senses' tracking feature being quasi obsolete considering the spoilery nature of the Mini Map giving away the hunted creature and/or constantly holding your hand by pointing you in the right direction with arrows, exclamation marks, etc.?

3.

Regarding the overall customizability of the game and the gameplay - is it about on the same level of the previous installments or can we expect something as elaborate and extensive as Thief 4's gameplay options and custom difficulty settings, for example?

In terms of difficulty levels / game modes - is it still just Easy, Normal, Hard, Dark and Insane or can we expect something new like, for instance, a 'Classic' mode (with a distinct configuration affecting the behaviour of certain mechanics to make the overall gameplay feel more 'old school') in addition to the established levels of difficulty / game modes?

 

[Sibladosi]

If possible, ask if the lady of the lake will appear again in TW3 =D, or that vodyanoi priest from TW1!
Have fun man! Enjoy, and see if you will be able to play the demo!
