Impressed by The Witcher 3's varied and deep range of side-stories and missions? Touched by the game's plot and story events? Well, as you might have guessed, there's been a lot of work put into that, and Gamelab 2015 attendees in Barcelona received a true master class on how to use "Storytelling as a tool for making open world games".
