The original writer being so pissy about the game’s success is why there’s gonna be an epic netflix witcher series in which he gets to be a consultant.

Please, please, please don’t suck.

It really comes down to casting. They’re not even at that point yet, but I believe the writing team have been at it for a couple months now I think.

I’ve enjoyed a handful of netflix originals. I’m not pessimistic about it being a netflix show as much as I’m pessimistic no one is going to be able to pull off Geralt after having 3 games with the same voice actor really making that role his own.

I hope it’s not a game about Geralt, Ciri, Yen etc since their story seems to have wrapped up very well in 3 afaik- but there’s a lot of regions in the world that haven’t been explored (Kovir, Poviss, Zerrikania, Mahakam, Dol Blathanna, most of Nilfgaard, the entire other planet that the elves came from, etc). I used to think a Witcher game where you could make your own person would be neat, but after actually playing these and seeing how good the characters are and how important they are to the overall story, maybe a new set of thought out characters would be better.

Update: Got roped into like an hour long quest that resulted in me murking my first wild hunt boss and finding a magic lamp. Wearing clown pants now. Level 6. Good progress but that mission sucked the llamas rear end. I wish there would be a warning before starting long rear end quests like that.

I just did this and yea, I can easily believe this is the lowest point of the game. Felt like a Skyrim dungeon.

I didn't even hate it that much, it was uninspired but the optional puzzles at the end were cool and it's the only glimpse of the Wild Hunt you get for a while

edit: but yeah it does really feel like a segment that belongs in a different game

Yeah. I think it was just licensed and translated by them though. Like they slap the Netflix original title on a bunch of Japanese romantic comedies for some reason

It was actually funded by Netflix and produced by American animation studios although Japanese artists worked on it too.

It's crazy how far reaching it becomes and how it keeps you interested the whole time, godly quest line.

I tried looking for bear school gear and a lvl30 ice golem whooped my rear end in 1 hit, so I guess I'll look later lol

It's really good and I think it's the moment for most people where they know they're gonna dig the game. I really like how there are two totally different questlines that lead into it (find out what's up with the freaks in the woods/find out what happened when Ciri stayed with the baron) and while they both play out a little differently they converge at the same point & it's plenty dramatic no matter which one you've been following

I had to change my privacy settings because I kept getting like 10 new psn "followers" a day. When I checked a few of their profiles they weren't bots, had ps+, and all of them have Witcher 3. This has been happening basically since I started playing. Weird as hell.

A witcher-universe game not about geralt should probably have Lambert as the main character, right?

In a wierd twist of fate, the guy who made the paper rpg cyberpunk is based on has a good thing going with cd projekt and they game him the license to make a witcher rpg and just finished it, maybe it'd be based on that.

Character creator in the same world, set not in the north like we've been doing this whole time.
