Not that none of this is possible, but this sounds sort of like Peter Molyneux was hired by CD Projekt RED.
Except CDPR hasn't let me down with promises before. =)
Sadly this will be last one
This looks like it could be pretty good.
Since I missed out on Skyrim (Steam-phobic), this looks to be a good replacement.
Heck, I have both the Witcher 1 and Witcher 2 on GOG and haven't even played them yet (huge backlog), guess I better get busy
I will buy anything from these guys because they make fantastic games and do a great job supporting the PC platform.
If they can keep a great narrative with memorable characters while also having a huge open world, it would be tremendous. Bethesda games lack the great narrative, charcters and plot. I think a big reason why is because you create your own character and he/she has no dialogue. The voice acting is also very wooden. If they can capture the best aspects of a Bethesda game while keeping what makes the Witcher special, I think they will have an amazing game on their hands.

I'm a little scared about CDP Red developing a "totally open world", because when RPGs have huge environments, the rest of the game usually sucks because of it (see: every Bethesda game ever). But, I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt.
Edit: Still reading into the details. I'm glad they're not making enemies scale.
Also, a game environment 30 times larger than The Witcher 2? Goddamn CD Projekt.
Sure, Skyrim was disappointing story wise, however, Morrowind was filled with amazing lore and had a pretty good main story. Sadly, few developers care about story anymore.Because it's made by CD Projekt Red, it will definitely be available on GOG.com. If I had it guess, it will be the most ambitious, highest-quality game ever released DRM-free.
As soon as TW3 pops up on Steam for pre-order, I will buy it immediately. My money is waiting.
The only thing Bethesda is good at, is creating large, beautiful open-worlds. That's it. They suck at making actual games. Skyrim provided a huge, pretty environment, but everything else is just so arsed. I don't know how a game like Skyrim gets such high praise for having combat mechanics from the 90's.
But, that's just my opinion. I apologize for turning this into a Bethesda hate-thread. I'm just saying: CDPR is the antithesis of Bethesda.
If they deliver on all those points mentioned above, The Witcher 3 will be GOTY, no contest. Hell, even if they only deliver on half those points, it will still be GOTY.
It's been less than a day since official announcement, and the hype machine has already been kicked into high-gear. I wonder if CDPR realizes just how much hype they manage to stir up from their rabid fan base. :hmm:
Only putting out two games will do that. Even then they're 1 for 2
Did they say they are going to fix the colossal fuckups they introduced in Witcher2? Never could kill that Kayran because of the Dragon's Lair style gameplay. What a stupid-stupid move.
Dragon lair style? I thought it was more or less like a Zelda boss battle.
He's probably referring to the quicktime events, which IIRC, there's only 2 or 3 of during that battle.
The Kayran fight is stupidly easy anyway.
Fuck yes. This is going to be awesome.
Why is that?
What did I miss . . . ?
