CDPR: Blood & Wine is Geralt's last story; feel it's "better than the main game"
- Thread starter shinobi602
- Start date
It should be similar to the Hearts of Stone dlc. Technically it takes place during the main game but the story and events are completely self contained.
Cannot wait, skipped the first DLC, waiting for disc release.
Btw, here is a chart showing the budget of W3:B&W

Can't fucking wait. I absolutely loved Hearts of Stone and will be buying this Day 1.

I'm assuming those are in Euros? So about 2.3 million Euros?
Yes

Prediction Regarding Geralt's last story: he will make an appearance in witcher 4 and it will be awesome. He'll show up when we least expect and do something completely awesome
It still blows my mind just how much content is in these expansion packs for how much it costs. They could have charged $60 for Hearts of Stone and I still wouldn't feel robbed.

I wanna say they came out and said there wouldn't be one, but I'd wager we'll see a GOTY version at some point down the future for like $10 or so. They have done "enhanced editions" of every one of their games, but Witcher 3's release and constant updates and dlc is different than they've ever done so they may not find a need for it with the way it's been released now. I bought this game for $17 4 mos. before it even released and then the season pass at full price once HoS came out.

once blood and wine is out I am pretty damn certain they'll eventually make a game of the year edition. I mean it'd be silly not to, the game was named GOTY in a buttload of places and has two big DLCs.

Sad to see The White Wolf go but glad he has the potential of getting signed off well. Lets hope CDPR delivers on that promise.
On another topic, DO you think they will focus the next one on an existing character or a new one?

Is it true that in the books, Geralt
dies at the end? He doesn't live happily ever after with Yennifer?
In HoS you can some dialog references to pretty late game decisions, for example
Radovid's fate.

He got
resurrected by Ciri, Yen too, then they got teleported to The Isle of Avalon.
After that, it's the beginning of TW1.

I need to finish the main game, is it worth doing NG+ if I'm also trying to get master bear armor; I don't want to have to grind for it twice
Even something as small as catching him at a bar and having some drinks with him would be cool.

He'l be the local Gwent champion with a deck filled with legendary Geralt cards.
Excited as fuck for this
Really hope this ends Geralts story on a high note
Then CDPR can make an awesome prequel game set 100s of years before Geralt is born.
Maybe even set it a few years after the conjunction, so you play as one of the first Witchers when the world is still wild and untamed and filled with crazy bullshit

Me too. Bought the game in December and still have a lot to play before I can use the DLC.
Really looking forward to this.
So should I load up the file right before the game ends and go to a contract board or would it be better if I went straight to the DLC? Is the experience the same either way?
I'm on the last mission of the main game and can't wait to buy the season pass. I'm even going to buy it straight from GOG just because. I usually go through keysellers, but I don't mind paying my region premium for this.
It should hold me over until Dark Souls 3 if I sprinkle in a little Just Cause 3.
I took a break right before starting the last mission to play Fallout 4. I like it more than most people, but I was still blown the hell away when I came back to W3.
It's the game that gives me the most "New Generation" feels while playing.

Almost certainly. That being said, don't expect it before at least August.
Ending wise it makes very little difference. It's literally your preference.

Yes. You can only go into NG+ if you start a new game.
Thanks for the quick reply!

Oh, Geralt, I'll miss your gorgeous, yet grumpy eye-rolls. The main story was one of the weaker aspects to W3, so CDPR is saying all the right things! I'm really looking forward to digging into Hearts of Stone, too.
