Certain sites have writers who just don't like the way CDPR approaches topics.
Is that what this is then? Must admit I'm confused by the articles chosen personality style, I don't know the site, nor do I wish to after reading what appears to be at the very least unnecessary cheekiness, behind the back two faced cheekiness at that, seemingly not making an appearance until post-interviews, after what seems to be a perfectly cordial meeting with one REDling (yes, I have decided to start referring to individual REDs with an endearing diminutive inspired by their own creations... GOGlet is waiting on the sidelines for next month), and a similarly respectful & detailed email from another of these extremely busy hard workers. Work btw that doesn't involve being nasty for no good reason, from half a world away at that.
They’re the kids let loose in the candy store, but they’re also the kids who’ve been told that they have to do stocktake after every sugar-binge. Their excitement is infectious, but they're also here to sell a game, and you can tell when they're toeing the party line.
Excuse me Mr. Article-bot (with SlightlyNastyStyle[SUP]TM[/SUP] mod) exactly what do you expect from employees of a company... Ed Snowden levels of whistleblowing? And what relevance has this got with the game? What good does this do readers & customers to state something so ubiquitous and expected in any business today? Tell me again how many companies allow, for instance, their employees full access to the company twitter account to post whatever they like? I guess the widespread adoption of strict rules about this sort of thing a few years ago due to widespread fubars happened while you were offline. Your employer may want to check your "party-line" circuits next downtime too, as using - repeatedly - a pejorative phrase with communist political connotations in this circumstance leaves me with the impression I've just witnessed prejudice.
Well Program, since they failed to do your job for you by whistleblowing, what did you do to tease further info from these people who have given you some of their precious-to-millions-of-gamers attention? In fact they again seem to be doing all the work, providing you with plenty of information you can spool out later, all in rather long & personalised sentences delivered with emotion to be considered obviously typical PR "soundbites". All I see from you - when you bother to include your input at all - are generic questions along the lines of "is Wild Hunt an 'adult' story?". You fail to even define what you mean by "adult", do you mean "mature" or can your program only handle age ranges? As those of us who have investigated & discussed this topic in detail know very well, theres a definite requirement for specificity here.If only they had paid for a Research mod instead of that faulty attitude one that was trendy & cheap.
Philipp seems to be conscious of the discussions around Wild Hunt and the Witcher series' attitude to sex and sexuality, too (the first game's approach to sex was notoriously juvenile).
More proof your program had been offline for 10 years, since all you appear conscious of is TW1, although you fail to be specific again, and so tar every applicable aspect of that game with the same brush, when the only consensus you might find regards the optional card collecting and not the female characters themselves. But then the impression given is that you are just regurgitating something you heard from someone else and don't have actual hands on experience to draw from (oops forgot Programs have no hands, and don't hear other people, just get whatever opinions typed into them by the pressing of buttons).
TW2 is clearly not a part of your program. No mention.
TL / DR; Fellow Forumites: that gameplanet link was to rubbish unworthy of your time. I've only quoted a minimum of examples of the kind of unnecessary personal comment added to an otherwise uninformative interview. If only it had been a Journalist, preferably someone who had experience with the prior games and detailed knowledge of the deep issues that matter to us gamers interviewing the REDs who themselves seemed very friendly and open, didn't hold back, and were clearly up for it. Wasted Opportunity.
