With its massive open world, deep storytelling, and immersive gameplay, The Witcher 3 has profoundly impacted the gaming industry.
From GameWatcher: "Michał Platkow-Gilewski, VP of PR and Communications at CD Projekt, has publicly recognised the turbulent release of Cyberpunk 2077. He attributed the admittedly troubled launch to extreme pressures, elevated expectations, and grueling crunch times, leading to a game that was not ready for release.
However, in light of the backlash his team experienced following Cyberpunk's debut, Platkow-Gilewski confirms that the team is now in a good place, effectively managing the negative aftermath and looking forward to the future. "I'm good. Actually... I think I'm great, to be honest."
Meaning some are still on the drawing board, and others are still in the brain. Ok, so we'll get two new games every 8-10 years right?
Looks like the realistic genitals weren't supposed to be in the fantasy RPG
It raised the bar similar to what Morrowind did.
A labor of love.
I'm glad I read most of the books after witcher 2 and before 3. It made the search for Ciri and the moments with her hit harder. Great game.
