I wouldn't put pathfinder in the list if I was you, better not to associate with that gay ass game. Wrath of the righteous was just as cringe as baldur's gate 3 and both of those are much worse than this horseshit is gonna be. Which is saying a lot.

Ciri was already a special snowflake character in W3.

Now she is extra-super-duper special snowflake: heir of Cintra, empress of nilfgaard by rights, interdimensional space traveler with elder blood super powers... and now mutant monster hunter.

Honestly fuck CDP and fuck the witcher series. This is a deathblow to the IP and the most stupid design/direction decision possible.

They could have created a new witcher character(as they have done often in the series) to be protagonist, they could have done a series set in the golden age of witchers before they became a dying breed, they could have even made a game where you could design your own witcher complete with choice of school... but no, we get this.

Hope it flops and cdp goes bankrupt. Not playing it.

 

[Barbarian]

Oh, and I would bet good money on "Geralt DLC" being a thing eventually, specially if this flops.

Wrath of the righteous and baldur's gate 3 are actual RPGs for starters. That alone makes them inherently superior to anything released under the TWitcher brand.

Are they? I can't tell because making it to the gameplay is impossible when I'm screaming and jamming my thumbs into my eye sockets, trying to scoop my brains out so the pain stops.

Wotr actually made me ragequit with the orc lesbian/tranny shenanigans.

Bg3 wasn't nearly as bad. I mean you could literally kill every character and were not forced to have DEI diversity hires tagging along with you the entire game. Most of the most talked about degeneracy(bear and tentacle sex, etc) I didn't actually see in my playthroughs for obvious reasons.

"Witcher 4" will be unplayable with Ciri protagonist. Surely they will release Geralt/Askel/Lambert dlc or whatever, but by then what is the point. Impossible to be interested in this.

 

[MasPingon]

That fucking lore writer dude has the most punchable face i've ever seen in a person.

This. I was wondering what makes his face so unpleasant, it's like a swollen pimple. Maybe that's why he is so insecure?

I already played an rpg where I had to kill every single person I spoke to, it was called the outer worlds and halfway through, I realised that a world where I hate all of the inhabitants is a world I'm not interested in being a part of. So I quit and I learned my lesson. Can't fool me twice. Usually.

cd projekt is here to stay, if cyberpunk couldn't bankrupt them with it's terrible launch, nothing can. witcher name alone would sell millions of copies, the game won't flop

That sounds boring as fuck.

The witcher saga has always been character driven. The worldbuilding is almost non existant and only serves as a canvas for the characters. Creating characters and eras from scratch, far removes from Sapkowski's work, would be just a huge fuck up. Continuing with the actual protagonist of the late book Saga is a much more sensible choice, because you can dip and take inspiration from the material and characters in the novels.

Serbia managed to pull off Underrail.

Serbia made Underrail? I thought it was Styg and his team

People who think this gonna flop and bankrupt CDPR is delusional. It took years and multiple flops for Bioware to be the laughing stock it is today. The issue where even the mainstream notice the drops in quality started with ME3 in 2012 due to the ending (DA2 had a lot of issues but even then everybody was already talking about how the release was botched by EA intervention). Inquisition had issue but was mostly received well by general public.

It is not until Andromeda where general public start to clowns on them followed by Anthem and disaster that is Veilguard.

Cyberpunk abysmall release tanked a lot of goodwil CDPR had with Twticher series but even then they bought up back goodwill, even among Codexer here, with the patching and expansion (with mod fixed the combat sprinkled here and there even in Codex).

It took multiple Far Cry clone slops and Ass Creed slops failing to get Ubisoft to the point it is now.

CDPR has yet to be on their "failure spiral" yet. At worst Twitcher 4 will be the start of it but much like Bioware or Ubisoft it will start small. E.g. by not reaching the peak sales of Twitcher 3 or Cyberpunk, slight discontent here and there.

Guys, Ciri first entered menopause and lost her powers, and transitioned after that so she could undertake Trial of the grasses.

Then introduce Lambert or Askel, idk. Especially Lambert, I like his personnality.

Zebrowski had a kino look about him, very viperish at times. Far more interesting than game Geralt in the face

They got their goodwill simply by releasing a cheap spin-off anime. All the hate towards Cyberpunk faded practically overnight following Edgerunners' release

Never played it and unlikely that I ever will, but half of the KKKodex indeed have played it, so...

Didn't Witcher 1 had a dlc where you played Eskel? I remember something about a little girl becoming a monster and giving his big face scar. Honestly he shows up very little but is probably a better character than Geralt, who is a bit of a snowflake and who allows himself to be cucked all the time.

A more serious and actually deformed by scars witcher, who instead of a cuck who gets played around by sorcerers and raves with elves and bards is actually more like a socially awkward incel.

Anything is better than Ciri imho. Lambert, Letho, the cat school guy, even a fucking prequel where you play Vesemir would be better than this shitshow.

Silent Storm trilogy

wut? ss, ss sentinels is its expansion, and that's it.

i'd play the shit out of a freeform witcher game, with a randomizer for traces and hints (honestly not a quick and easy job, most of the resources would had to be poured into it to make it varied enough to sustain replayability), drinking the right potions for the right monsters truly essential, and no quicksave (but plenty of possibility to retreat and escalate the mission into "monster on the loose", which is just a bit tougher combat for standing loss and much reduced pay).
i could see people fighting over hardcore mode with permadeath for who's the best witcher ever.

 

[undecaf]

Sadly CDProjekt is firmly in the Awesome Button camp.

Yeah, I know. But I like to hope for things that won’t happen. I’m weird like that.

So...Monster Hunter with witcher skins

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

harder, without the retarded combat and the locked combo direction, more soulslike. and no fucking furries. just that would be one of the most important selling points.

Ask anyone from ATOM team if they wish to be associated with Russia. You'll get a painful reality check.
