Good, there hasn't been a polished RPG since bitcher 3. Combat and story is already good enough so long as you aren't rolling every 2 seconds and chasing your bitch(s)
Dont forget about "press right mouse button to use witcher senses" in every single God damn quest.

Ranged weapons or bust.
ranged weapons were already revealed in an older video. There was a video where they introduced the melee combat system. Some dev kept dying over and over and couldn't kill a knight in melee. So the dev took a crossbow at the end and shot the knight, from a distance, in the head killing him with one shot.

It was a bow. We don't have crossbows, unfortunately. Couldn't afford making this feature. Basically it was either crossbows or polearms.

Polearms are completely useless to me as an exclusive user of ranged weapons in the first person perspective, but bows suit me fine.

After all, Skyrim wasn't able to include crossbows until DLC.
