"Most role-playing games are like going to McDonald's," Michat Madjei says as GameSpy takes a look at his long-in-development The Witcher. Madjel is the chief designer of CDProjekt out of Poland and GameSpy is at GenCon 2007 discussing what makes The Witcher more than just your ordinary RPG. "No matter which city you are in, the hamburgers are going to taste the same. So you don't really have meaningful choices."
According to Madjei, players not seeing the outcome of choices right away will combat the tired practice of saving and reloading so that the optimal path through a game is selected. He spoke about it as he walked through an example from the game. "We think that roleplaying games are better when players get to shape the game. We are giving players ambiguous choices, and they won't see the results of their actions until later." He said. In the game, the player is "the Witcher," a more-than-human figure who is a monster-killer for hire.
CD Projekt Red developers have shared their thoughts on Gwent, hinting at the card game making its comeback in The Witcher 4.
The Witcher 4 developer CD Projekt Red is working closely with Epic Games in order to bring structural improvements to Unreal Engine 5.
As a dev, I can tell you that with 5, Epic made quite a leap. It perhaps may have done *too much* of a fidelity leap that most of its target hardware (Both PC and Consoles) struggles to hit 60FPS with all the new cutting edge features they added.
It may have had some issues with this generation to find a good home, but by PS6 the engine will have matured and found a good matching partner 🙏
Now that Sweet Baby is involved in this game. I’m really concerned it’s going to turn into a woke agenda poster child. I hope not but after what happened to the tv show, I won’t be holding my breath on this one.
The Witcher Trilogy bundle is currently listed with an 89% discount on Steam, and you can save over $60 thanks to this Summer Sale discount.
The Witcher is a really interesting game but sadly, its stupid publisher is killing it with lack of hype. They're doing nothing to promote this RPG.
@ MK_Red
I guess your right because I really haven't heard anything about this game. The screens look good though and it sounds pretty interesting.
