The trailer has been out since the 5th and i just watched it? Looks amazing.
I keep rewatching the trailer over and over... something's wrong with me
So I should have made it clear it was mainly Geralt and Triss I was talking about instead of saying everybody but I digress. In a perfectly acceptable move to make the models more realistic, CDProjekt went to the extreme end and totally changed some of the characters so much so that they don't even look like their previous counterparts.Ok, what the fuck are you talking about.
Geralt looks like a thosand times better. nTriss doesnt look like an NPC prostiture anymore (TW1) and Jaskier looks better with every game that passes.
Foltest and Zoltan also looked much better from TW1 to 2.
No, seriously, please indicate me with screens how was the character art better in the first game. Maybe your preference for beauty is people looking like porcelain dolls or something.
Nobody can tell for sure, but you'd probably need an upgrade. Just as many other people.
They changed Triss face so much that it might have well been a different character. In 1 she's like a Barbie character, (you made the right comparison of porcelain dolls but wrong assumption) whereas in TW2 she looks overly masculine. CDP knows not balance.

How does Geralt look better in TW2? In TW1 he has a perfect balance of his Witcher features and human features. Then comes TW2, where CDP amp up the Witcher features without giving any explanation turning him into a horror story antagonist.

Before any of you go into a tirade on "closer to the books" appearance, Geralt is supposed to be a ladies man which his TW1 appearance essentially is while TW2 Triss is closer to how she looks like in the books. So to cut a long story short, this "Desmond-ing" by CDP is crazy weird.
Watching the trailer again, looks like they've toned down some of the TW2 model exaggerations so I guess it's a step in the right direction...

Well, that's not how Geralt looked in Witcher 1.. this is how he looked:

And as a reader of the books, i think Triss looks way better in W2 than in W1
Love how he used concept art for Geralt in TW2 instead of an in-game model, nevermind the obviously modded TW1 Geralt pic.
They're all images taken straight from The Witcher Wikia site, and the later is a model of Geralt from the Rise of the White Wolf mod.

Yet he's trying to compare Geralt's looks of both games and doesn't even bother to link an in-game TW2 Geralt? What sort of bait/switch crap is that? Hell, by that same logic I can link the alpha version of TW2 Geralt as representation of TW2 Geralt as a whole.

So much more human looking, and glorious tanned skin.
Well, not only do I now refuse to buy the console version, but the tiny bit of hype I had for E3 was shat on by this trailer. Sorry to say this, but I'm glad it got delayed, more time for them to work on the game and for my cheap ass to save up for some new PC parts.
Thanks for this. I'm curious, how big of a team is CDPR?
Triss looks overly masculine in TW2?

Talk about silly.
Triss is so hot.
Seriously, it's like a slipped through a wormhole and wound up in Opposite Land. Witcher 1 has some of the most outstandingly ugly characters I've ever seen in video games, and poor old Geralt is at the head of the pack (OK, maybe Kalkstein takes the W, but Geralt's at least a silver medal contender).
Meanwhile, I had to take like a dozen screenshots of Geralt's face while I was playing through Witcher 2 just because he had such an amazing mug. Look at this gorgeous hunk of man meat:
Well, to be clear, Geralt wasn't described in the books like he is some handsome guy.. in the games his getting more and more better looking
Triss is so hot.
Triss is so hot.
She's also the real bro in the Witcher games. Screw Zoltan and Roche and Dandelion and Iorveth (eugh!). Seriously, she's like a hot bro that also has sex with you. That talk in the elven bath in TW2 put her into the all time great pantheon of characters. She likes you but she also knows you have a ton of baggage with Yennefer and if you want to go after her she has your back 100%.
I think there's going to be some top-tier bitchiness between Triss and Yen in Witcher 3, though. Geralt looks like a beaten man in this gif, and the sass radiating out of Triss is almost tangible:

I can't stop playing this trailer like, thrice a day.
I'm actually not impatient to play it, just want them to take their sweet time and make this the true masterpiece it is destined to be.
Still can't believe how good this game looks considering the scale of the world etc. To see an open world game looking this good... I have a PS4 But I'm gonna build a new PC when this comes out and max this game. No more half measures.
Dude this is nothing remember last year we saw Cyberpunk CGI? CDPR said when the game comes out it will look excatly like it. Super talented and independent studio, what else you need.
If I was a developer I would love to work for them
Even if it were true, there would be nothing wrongyou're into masculine women, so clearly there's something wrong with you.
I'm sure a GTX 770 (which incidentally is my GPU as well) will be enough to play this game decently. Almost certainly better than the console counterparts.I'm 99% sure that this game will murder my 770 :/
TW2 Triss is my waifu.
Damn, that's the first time I've every typed waifu. That's what Triss does to me.
God damn, Geralt looks so badass.I think there's going to be some top-tier bitchiness between Triss and Yen in Witcher 3, though. Geralt looks like a beaten man in this gif, and the sass radiating out of Triss is almost tangible:

My "problem" is: I don't think I want to settle for that. If this ends up being as good as it seems to be, I will probably want to enjoy it at its best (with fur, hair and cloth physics, for a start) so I'm already considering the idea of selling my GPU and buying a new one just for this, if that will be what it takes.

Yeah, I don't really get all the hostility even if she is a masculine female. I don't really think she is, but she definitely demands a lot as a character, which I also don't mind. Rare to see side characters who frequently overshadow main characters. The Scoia'tael (and Iorveth particularly) made more of an impression on me than Geralt ever has. Some interesting parallels in the Scoia'tael as to how people see modern day terrorism as well (in that the oppressing side tends to be overly judgmental of the oppressed).Even if it were true, there would be nothing wrong
