Majek Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Wonder what goodies will be in the collector's edition. Maybe a dinky Witcher's medallion ? Well, medallion is in indeed. You buying it? :D I'm going digital on gog.com 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Malcador Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Sure, just need to find something to do with that sculpture thing.

SadExchange Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Man, after watching that trailer. It almost makes me hesitate and lower my expectations, because it can't be "that" good could it? I know it's CD Projeckt, but honestly, Witcher 2 was fun and looked superb before release, but even that game had some glaring problems. I'll just keep my fingers crossed for this one.
BruceVC Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Wowzers, that trailer is one of the best trailers I've ever seen in my life "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.

Nordicus Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) I checked the GOG pre-order site and saw this: Fair Price PackageSince the price in your region is almost $11.98 higher than in the US, we’re giving you $11.98 (~€8.98) back in free classic games. Tempted, tempted. Edited June 5, 2014 by Nordicus

Labadal Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Game looks good graphically. Now to wait and see if the gameplay is actually fun.
marelooke Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 All aboard! Meh, looks good, but so did the previous game. Until I see some actual info on how it will *play* I'm not getting excited, after all, I still need to finish part 2, which I put aside shortly after launch due to the terrible controls and UI.
Nonek Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) One must admit that pushed the right buttons personally and I think i'll indulge in a pre - order, I was over all very satisfied with Assassins of Kings and with a mouse and keyboard UI being implemented (instead of the barely disguised console abomination) i'm hopeful for better controls. The combat had a few flaws but was mostly satisfactory, though personally i'd have preferred a turn based system to simulate Geralt's speed, or simply go the whole hog and copy Severance to the full rather than the semi action system they had. The plot, narrative, setting and characterisation were all more than satisfactory, though there were a few things stripped from the first game that were obviously troublesome, and personally i'd like to see certain areas reflecting the Slavic Folk feel of Murky Waters. Edit: Nice to see the other gentlemen of Kaer Morhen, however Yen's face seemed too soft, not shrewd enough. Edited June 5, 2014 by Nonek 2 Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it?

GhostofAnakin Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 I like the trailer. Very interested in this game. Sucks it's not out until 2015. 1 "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)

Nonek Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) At the :32 second mark, is that Letho on the right of the screen behind the Wolf school Witcher's? Is Emhyr enthroned in Vizima's throneroom from the first game? The raven taking the Nilfgaardian's eye at the end, is it Philippa the mistress of shapeshifting, or maybe even Borch Three Jackdaw's? The trailer keeps giving. Edited June 5, 2014 by Nonek Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine.

Nordicus Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 I know nobody else who has roided up arms like that. The other witchers from the first game will play an significant part in 3, that much we know from trailers and the secret letter in the newest one, so if Letho will reappear... My favorite foil in an RPG since Delita! 3
Serrano Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Edit: Nice to see the other gentlemen of Kaer Morhen, however Yen's face seemed too soft, not shrewd enough. Really, really looking forward to Yennifer's biting sarcasm, her parts in the books were always a highlight. 1
Nonek Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Only one real problem with Letho for myself, and that was the forced outcome of the melee under the Elven Baths, apart from that I agree that he was fairly much a perfect foil for Geralt. Perhaps purposely so? Edit: I admit i'm somewhat worried about Yen's voice actress, she needs bite and class, the polar opposite of Triss hopefully.
