Even if someone doesnt like the Witcher series, hard to believe but it has its detractors, CDPR created GOG and I dont think I have ever met anyone who doesnt like GOG? SA doesnt have any famous gaming companies, its not our strong point at all "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

It’s nice that they did a great adaptation of books series I enjoyed as a kid. I never quite connected with the concept of being tied to something purely because I happened to be born on land within the same political jurisdiction as a company/artist/sports team. Really, in gaming what company location indicates is that most likely in that it relatively cheap to run a studio there. Not sure, if it is something I would feel particularly proud of.

Well in life you definitely dont just like something because its from your country, thats not what I am saying. You like things that are successful and when they globally recognized as prestigious its even more significant. And CDPR was founded and created by Polish people within Poland So it should be okay for you to be proud of it because you Polish, thats normal I would say for most people? Thats why Obama was given a copy of Witcher 2 by the Polish PM in 2011 https://www.gamespot.com/articles/obama-mentions-the-witcher-during-trip-to-poland/1100-6420055/ "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

kanisatha Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 Very excited about CDPR's future Witcher franchise games. But also very curious about what "Hadar" will be. We know it will definitely be an RPG, and it will be "distinct from Witcher and Cyberpunk." So sci-fi? 1

That’s precisely a jump in thinking that I could never wrap my head around. Why would I be proud of something I have contributed nothing to? But a I think you are right that that’s a normal sentiment for most people. It’s just one of those things that keeps puzzling me 1

CDPR is a big company and Witcher games have been the biggest export product the country had. That means a lot of new jobs, a lot money flowing in and out, a lot of payrolls to tax. Every government likes companies that bring a lot of money. 1

Yes and if you live in that country wouldnt you be proud and supportive of that company because it benefits your country with the tax generated? And I assume you still have family and friends living in Poland and since we both agree that tax revenue is a good thing doesnt that mean you would support the success of CDPR as a Polish company because it benefits Poland and the people living there ?
