Also great to see that guy being eaten by ghouls.
There seems to be some hostility towards the player in this preview. But, I suppose it's only to be expected: after all, he (or she) got to play the game, and we didn't.

It was a comment concerning the difficulty of the game really, i don't mind the player.

PS: Although that little weasel got to play the game before us![]()
The player was probably on normal so he died quite easily. I am usually playing on hard cause i am a bit of a masochist when it comes to the witcher.
in w2 you could decide not to use roll and quen (hurr choice) jet almost every one spammed itYou do realise that the player has a choice whether to just use sidestep/pirouette or a full roll?
Did anyone manage to survive the Kayran-fight without rolling?in w2 you could decide not to use roll and quen (hurr choice) jet almost every one spammed it
Because there wasn't an alternative? Unlike in TW3?in w2 you could decide not to use roll and quen (hurr choice) jet almost every one spammed it
So, in other words, you're just going to roll with it?I dont realised that, but if this isnt something you can take off in the options, i dot see me, just make sidesteps, because when the fight get harder, i will try to stay alive, with all the games allows me too. So I will the roll automatically, even if i dont want to .
Very good point. Seems like there are a lot of alternatives to avoiding damage, seems pretty great to meBecause there wasn't an alternative? Unlike in TW3?
IMO it seems that rolling isn;t that effective - looked like he died because of rolling in fact. It may give you some space, but you are to far from the enemy to actualy hit it. I think, and I hope, that sidesteps are simply more effective during the fight. They may be more difficult, but on one hand you can avoid getting hit, and on the other - you are close enough to strike the enemy while he is most voulnerable.I dont realised that, but if this isnt something you can take off in the options, i dot see me, just make sidesteps, because when the fight get harder, i will try to stay alive, with all the games allows me too.

Why would i talk about storytelling, interactions, story, etc, when i know it's gonna be great? This is CDPR.I have read through this thread, and It is very strange and disappointing that very few posts actually talked about Geralt and Vesemir's interaction. All we seem to care about these days are graphics, but as old fans we forget that graphics were not why Witcher 1 was great nor will it be why WItcher 3 would be great or disappointing. I want to take this time to tell the new fans that the Witcher is not about graphics, but it is about a great story told within a rich lore with a unique and immersive atmosphere. It is about mature subjects and life like gray decisions that have consequences that might surprise you. It is about interesting and deep characters and their relationships. These are the things that are most important in the Witcher.
That being said I loved Geralt and Vesemir's interaction. We felt the father and son relationship, and its portrayal was so subtle and perfect. We see a father and son, that care about each other, trying to hide their emotions and act tough for each other. The expression on Vesemir's face when he asks about Geralt's nightmare, shows that he cares about Geralt. They argue about the rereading the letter like any father and son arguing about silly stuff. Vesemir then raises his voice on Geralt like a father, and Geralt daunts Vesemir with a smart comment like a rebellious kid. Although Geralt is a dick to Vesemir in the beginning, we see that he cares about his old man by the look on his face when Vesemir is injured by the Griffin. Vesemir then acts tough for Geralt by telling him that the beast barely grazed him.
I really liked the strong writing and delivery, which makes Geralt and Vesemir's interaction so smooth and believable.

I want to talk about graphics but in the context of atmosphere. Now this video looks good (bad quality though), but i would do things differently here - aka Witcher 1 style.
But one thing that i don't like in this video is fighting. It's too fast, and looks ridiculous in some cases.
Do you mean Geralt will lose his pants too? Awwwwww!
Because it would be fairer.Why would i talk about storytelling, interactions, story, etc, when i know it's gonna be great? This is CDPR.

Yes it is my opinion, which is obvious. I'm perfectly aware of that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWdd6_ZxX8c
Seriously though, i think the speed looks fantastic. It's Geralt we're talking about, he could kill a dozen people in 3 seconds or something. The combat is fast paced but it's not "Ridiculous".
