but I also think it wouldn't distract from TW3 if they showed fans something. Anything.
They aren't ready, I think. Let's take Iwin at his word: it just isn't ready to show anything. That probably means they've settled very little - nearly anything could be changed.
They also might have - in fact, i think they said this - been blown away by the views on the trailer. QUITE a reaction.
A quick glance at the first Witcher 3 trailer that Google presents shows 2.6 million Youtube views, iirc.
Cyberpunk 2077 has 6.5 million views. Just the one trailer. Yes, I'm aware it's the only one, other than the HD version, as opposed to the now-many W3 trailers. Still. 6.5 million views. For an intro trailer for a game years and years away.
Of course, least 80,000 of those were mine and another 120,000 were Wisdom, but still.
So, yeah, perhaps they are a little concerned with distracting people from Witcher 3.
