Video Games The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

**keg in kc** · 11:34 AM

Coming out sometime in 2014. Is/will be the cover story for today's new Game Informer. They're saying they're going for more of an open world game (no loading screens at all) with branching free-form progression instead of the chapter by chapter story progression of the earlier games (I'm sure lots of people are excited to hear that, but I'm not a fan of open world games, so I have mixed feelings at best...). They say the game world will be 30 times the size of The Witcher 2's and roughly 20% larger than Skyrim. It will be the final game in the series, as well.

I have 2 but never played it past the prologue, so I guess I'll have to get going on that sometime in the next year.

Yes

you should do that.
You have it on PC or 360?

PC.

I can't remember why I didn't play it more than I did. I didn't like something, but I have no idea what that was. I did the same thing with the first Witcher game though. Bought it early on, didn't play it for a long time, eventually did.

I did the same thing -- I ended up picking it back up after a few updates/patches had come out. Turned out to be one of the best adult RPGs I've ever played.. Some fantastic storytelling and your choices have a HUGE impact on the game. Also one of the best looking games

i think i have 2 sitting around somewhere too.

I think i got to some kind of force field or something blocking a room at the very beginning and stopped. No idea why.

It's because the prologue sucks. I did the same thing (twice..)
I actually just finished the game last week though, finally.

Ya, I agree.
Loved it. They did some patching that improved stability and performance, which was huge. I think that hurt it at launch.

Anyway, ton of fun. I like that its not an easy game to play.
Once you get past the prologue, it picks up rapidly.

Looking forward towards TW3.

Day 1 purchase without a doubt. Loved Witcher and Witcher 2 was even better due to the satisfying combat mechanics.
