Ciri is too overpowered to be mc.
Also i think reds want to have game with char gen for once (which probably be C2077)


Part of me want C2077 as proper system based RPG with party
Part of me wants C2077 to be non char gen mc with set story and focus on story knowing reds excellence in writting.

CP is difficult in the aspect of char gen and a fixed story, because the classes are very dependent on their 'jobs'. I loved to make scenarios which evolved around Corporates and Cops. I have watched too much Blade Runner.

they should choose a new successful and well known IP with many books as source, that has been not used in games before, like the Dark Tower.

There's no problem in using an already seen IP as long as it is Dune. The world needs the second coming of the Kwisatz Haderach

Dune is also a very strong IP, that needs some new blood infusion, but ... difficult. Play as Paul? Or as a Fremen? Or the Atreides dynasty in three installments? There have been 5 dune games already, but i would love to see a Dune RPG with the visual style of David Lynch's film and Eno's music.

 

[Perkel]

I don't think Dune is good for something other than telitele style choose your own adventure game.

 

[Quatlo]

Really? An rpg when you play as a fremen, fighting your first duels and the high point of a story being you riding your first shai hulud would end with me having a heart attack and dying covered in cum. That would be glorious.

 

[Atomkilla]

I don't think Dune is good for any game at all. This comes from a man who loves Dune strategy games, or at least loved them. It's a great setting, but heart of the Dune is in its philosophy, themes, characters and dialogues - you can make a game out of it, of course, but you'd be pretty limited in the Dune universe if you would focus on Muad'dib, Atreides and so on, given that most of the stuff related to them has been explored in the books already, I guess it's better to just make a new IP and explore similar themes.

Dude no one reads book these days ,you can make games based on all the books in the world and less than 1% would reconize them.More games should be based on books because no one seems to have imagination anymore ,we keep getting the same rehashed garbage every fucking year and no one seems to care.

 

[hiver]

You would get the same rehashed garbage whatever books would be used, as they would not change anything but superficial wrapping around the same rehashed garbage.

I have no mouth and i must scream was a pretty good adaptation even tho the game had some retarded puzzle at times.

Looooong time ago.

Also, If you are expecting originality and novelty from mass market well then at you.
But the last several pages were complete shitposting anyway, so you can all feel free to continue wishing well.

The Seventh Sense games are a very faithful adaptation of the Lone Wolf books.

It doesn't matter if it was a looooong time ago ,it shows that there are good books out there that have the potential to be good games as well.

And i think there are a lot of people who can do some original ideas with the help of Kickstarter ''Obsidian,Larian,Inxile,Daedalic'' but sadly all of them went with the same rehashed garbage that seems to not sell that good anymore.

The Seventh Sense games are a very faithful adaptation of the Lone Wolf books.

These Lone Wolf books : The Kai Series (gamebooks 1 to 5) follows Lone Wolf as he rallies the armies of Sommerlund and her ally, Durenor, to repel the invasion, -?

Bet he has three companions and retard, stupid, tool dialogue options.

They're great at telling stories, presenting character's interactions, writing dialogues. They're mediocre when it comes to the RPG mechanics. I don't want them to jump into the "mumIwannaplayasME" bandwagon.

I would love to play in some worlds created by J.Dukaj, I would also settle for a proper steampunk (Sapkowski always jokingly says his new book will be "about steam machines". High time he actually delivers). I think the Witcher IP needs some rest but I'd not be happy if that means it's dead forever.

It'd be great if CDP could make one RPG every 1.5 year but I'm afraid there's no manpower available for that:/

As the world was in turmoil one country stand against the tides, only to be overcome by the changes that resulted from the turmoil. Peace was not enduring for this country nor for it's people.

Technically they could, if the scope is not so large. The success of their current project decides their further fate. If we are luck we will have in 1.5 years CP77, and if TW3 is very successful CDPR can pull more brain and manpower from outside of poland.

Of course, other Poles will attack me now and insist that I'm the only one who feels this way, that I'm weird, unpatriotic, ungrateful and deaf (even though I have experience with audio engineering and shit... but of course, there is a notion some audio engineers are indeed deaf, otherwise modern albums would not sound so pathetic, but I digress).

It's incredible that you had to post this, and that you turned out to be absolutely correct. What a bizarre species you slavs are.

Why the FUCK would anyone buy this game on Origin.

That is because they had to work on witcher with set story and be faithful to the books.

There are shitton of people there who wants to make proper char gen rpg and whole start of business was to make their own BG, Torment and so on.
Just look at one of the first Cyberpunk 2077 interviews where their game designer was talking how they want to convert PnP system into a game, talking already on class balances etc.

But that after release. We don't know what is happening with CB77 now. Some journo said that he saw something behind scenes from CB77 dev team and if this would be what game will look like then oh boy !.
Which points that CB77 will probably have way better graphic than TW3 which doesn't make any sense if they are making it full party rpg.

Imo i think CB2077 will end up as ME kind of clone with tactical view.

At least Steam is better than Origin. Most sane people can agree on that. But GOG is the obvious choice here, as it is the developer's own preferred retailer.

Does Russia only have one company doing game dubs as well? I could swear I hear some voices from Stalker/Metro there (since those games shared like 80% of voice actors as well).

Same situation as in Poland: either young theater\cinema actors doing odd jobs for extra cash or amateurs from 90s who were doing Western cartoon voiceovers before, which led to homogenity of the scene. I don't really follow localizations though, TWitcher series are the only games I've played in Russian lately, mostly due to it being closer to Polish than English.

Which is true for pretty every game released, with few exceptions. W2 being one of those exceptions actually. Just take a look at this list:
