I'm a little less hyped since the story probably got spoiled for me by some teenage Polish shit bag who takes pride in the fact CDPR are Polish (nothing wrong with that of course) but likes to shove it in others throat, spoiling stuff on the way. Any way, what's the chances this game will follow (the exact) story as in the books? Meaning

Spoiler

Gerald will die

? I'm a very, very spoiler sensitive kind of guy and this little something (which does NOT mean you should read it if you don't know) might detract some of the joy.

Any how, looks absolutely stunning (though I still believe they're going to abandon A LOT of their promises for PS4/XBO) and I will definitely buy when I begin my delayed next-gen.

The games take place after the books, so you're not spoiled with anything but what has already happened in the Witcher-verse.

Regardless if this is a cutscene or not, they really did a fenomenal work with the girl on right (Yennefer?). She really looks quite life-alike.

Preordering incoming!

I forgot who Yennifer was so I wikied...thought this was funny

It is implied in the story "The Last Wish" that her attractive looks

Spoiler

were a product of magic and had been acquired during her training, as with most other sorceresses. Geralt notes how her shoulders are slightly lopsided and by the end of the story realizes that Yennefer used to be a hunchback.

Nevertheless, his love for her does not diminish.

Wait...so is Triss natural or what? lol

 

[Dysun]

OH SHIT

looking great

 

[Daemul]

that looks like yennefer, but then who is the white haired woman the emperor talks about?

Ciri.

Spoiler

Geralts and Yennefer's adopted daughter

 

[Defco 7T]

Just- man..speechless WOW!!!

 

[RiZ III]

Looks fucking incredible. It's like that game I've always wanted to play but never thought would be made.

CDPR pls

 

[hydruxo]

Wait, is this all ingame, or are some scenes in the beginning CG? Because if it's all ingame... HOLY COW!

It's all in-game, my friend

 

[CoolS]

I think the dude said the only CG part was the final scene (after the title with the army, this gif):

All ingame according to CDR.



Oh ok.

Holy shit then.

I guess I'll have to get a PS4 until february 2015 then

 

[Crossing Eden]

Heh I'm pretty sure the story of the games is after the books. I could be wrong though.

The story of the games takes place after the books. That's what makes them so compelling.

 

[Principate]

You don't say. Kinda the trend, right? Show on PC. At least it wasn't all CGI.

Well this game was mostly a pc franchise not exactly surprising.

 

[KissVibes]

Next Gen is finally here.

 

[Messofanego]

Love the animations

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Looks fantastic top to bottom. I just hope it feels good to swing your sword and hit things with it. No matter what it looks like, if the combat doesn't feel right, I probably won't be able to enjoy it.

looks good but I hope they show a in-depth in game combat video because the combat in 2 was not very fun, kind of boring actually

The games play after the books, no one but CDPR knows how the trilogy will end.

As other said before, no chance at all. Books are set before the games.

The games take place after the books, so you're not spoiled with anything but what has already happened in the Witcher-verse.

Pfew, glad to hear that! But then why does this kid seemed pretty sure of himself? Anyway doesn't matter any more, thanks for the replies!

[Neuromancer]

I literally can't believe how amazing this game looks. What a fantastic trailer, I have a hard time believing we'll see anything better at E3 next week.

 

[Krusenstern]

Just in case it wasn't pretty damn obvious already:

 

[zkorejo]

What are the chances of looking like this on PS4 Xbone?

I would also like to know that. Although Im sure the chances are pretty damn slim.

 

[Kinthalis]

I love that Geralt draws his sword and goes into authentic medieval sword guards. They've done their homework, and it looks amazing!

 

[phaze]

Anybody spot Iorverth or Roche?

CDPR pls

I'm sure they're there !

Spoiler

For the 30 seconds it will take them to deliver their 3 dialogue lines.

 

[Nokterian]

My PC am cry all ready (will get PC and PS4 version). Looks phenomenal and the music my lawd!

Love you Blim, thanks for this!

 

[DemurOnion]

I'd suspect so, it's a trilogy. The second one gave you a pretty good idea of what was going on if you'd never played the first but you're losing sooo much. So yea, in my opinion it is a pretty big problem starting with the last game.

Simply don't start with the last game imo.
