Interiors and Drinking?
Hi,
So I love this series, ever since The Witcher 2 and I'm having a blast finishing up the third. It's an enthralling story with plenty to do. However, there are a couple of things that makes me scratch my head: what's the point of having interiors and alcohol (beer and other mead) in the game?
Now don't get me wrong. I absolutely love the fact how the game not only has countless interiors but many of them are seamless. I love how you can just walk into any home, residence, dungeon, cave, etc. and be treated to an extremely detailed environment. It's fantastic but going inside people's residences seems pointless to me because there's really nothing to do! You can't sleep on anyone's bed and plus it would've been if you could at least see Geralt take things from people's homes. Whenever you take anything you just walk in front of it and select "take" with a button press. You don't actually see him grab anything which would've been pretty cool.
Also what's the point of "consuming" alcohol when you have to go inside your Inventory menu and select without even seeing Geralt perform the animation. Why couldn't CD Projekt Red allow you to actually walk inside a bar and see Geralt consume a pint of mead, specifically the animation of him actually grabbing the mug and draining it down. There's one part in the beginning of the game that is part of a quest where you actually see him do this. It would've been nice they carried this throughout the whole game. In Red Dead Redemption and GTA V you're able to walk in a tavern or club and literally watch the protagonist gulp some alcohol down his throat.
I know CD Projekt Red is all about fan service and it would've been cool if they had a little more interaction inside people houses and the ability to actually see Geralt performing a drinking animation especially with all the alcohol talk that goes on in the game. It just perplexes me. Hopefully they include this in an update or something.
