Game looks absolutely phenomenal. Preordering it now.
The combat looks like it'll be drudgery that I try to get through as quickly as possible, though.

He does have an accent, it just happens to be the one you perceive as "normal." There's quite a few accents in The Witcher universe, Geralt has one of them. Triss has a very similar accent.

Here's hoping my 7950 will be enough to get quality graphics.
Geralt is an orphan, raised by the Witchers of Kaer Morhen, in the far north and east of Kaedwen. The Witcher 3, meanwhile, primarily takes place in the south and west of the continent.
Combat have been improved it seems.
When it comes to RPGs, this game comes right after Bloodborne and Persona 5 in terms of hype. Probably getting it on the PS4 rather than PC just for convenience' sake though.
And now that TW3 is almost out CDPR can start focusing on Cyberpunk soon which is awesome.

Most anticipated game for me, even though im getting it for the XBone, with assumed downgrades versus ps4/pc...still can't wait.
I'm working my way through the second novel but will likely be done reading all the books well before this is released :/
Was the gameplay confirmed to be PC?

The fur effects on the beheaded creature on his horse shows that it's the PC version.
This game is looking so good
Still six months left to catch up.

This game is looking so good
There is definitely a ton of story and world stuff in the first two games. Hopefully they have a "previously on" type thing for new players. For me, the second game was my first time with the Witcher universe and after about 10 hours of just being immersed in it all I started getting a good hold on places, characters, backstory, etc. There are some great Youtube summaries out there, but obviously playing the first two is the best way to go.

this is exactly my luck. Divinity original sin, Dragon age Inquisition, Witcher 3 and potentially Shadow of Mordor all come out exactly when i graduate and get a full time job while i study for CFA... sigh.
edit:
Dat political intrigue doe? hands down the best of any game ever.

Yea ... I did try to play the second one on my mac mini and it kinda just laughed at it and said "nope" lol
He meant his Mac mini couldn't handle
p.s: edit-quoting someone below you is annoying, and you should feel bad

If you have a 360 and still want to play Witcher 2 the 360 port is very high quality.

Those 35 minutes have convinced me on purchasing it. Still not sure if I'll go for the PS4 or PC version (not sure how optimized and how my i5 3.33/GTX680 will do), but everything ive seen in those 35mins: gameplay, graphics & story was sogoodJamesFranco.gif
Are you joking?

What platform is this one because I don't think it looks nearly as good as when it was originally shown? The LOD is VERY aggressive and draw in for details on the ground and in the distance is pretty close, not Skyrim close but not as far as I would like. You can see really bad evidence in this when he first enters the city, off to the left you can see the shadow is being drawn in on a building. Foliage is also pretty primitive from what I can see in the beginning of the video, again this is compared to what was shown earlier in the games development.

I just saw it and maybe the word that best describes what you see is: Beautiful.
Some NPC faces and animations aren't lifelike, but the attention to detail, the amazing soundtrack and other technical aspects such as the great AA treatment, make me want to grab my Xbox controller and be part of this adventure right now.

Ah, the life of an animator. I find myself thinking this way too often haha.
Game looks so damn good overall though, I need this ASAP. I can't believe how massive the game world is, when he said Novigrad was FOURTEEN times farther away than that huge tree in the distance, I fell out of my body for a second. Thank goodness there are some really good games coming out soon to hold me over until this releases.
Depending on what exactly you mean by 'Ughhhhh', I might point out that Ciri will not be romanceable.
And if it turns out that Ciri is romanceable, well, shit is gonna get weird and dark.

I think the combat looks better then the last 2 games however not convinced it's good enough to serve the whole game yet.

i need this game D: looks amazing
Sadly I don't. I missed out on a good deal of last gen. The devs have said that they're making the game somewhat accessible for new players so I guess I'll see how it goes. (I might give the books a read too)
If they can't use MSAA and get acceptable framerates on a beast demo PC...yeah it's far from done.
The console versions need some form of AA too. And not shitty FXAA for the love of god.
That was the first thing I noticed - the effect looks fantastic. I'll definitely miss that on PS4; hope it's comparable otherwise. The game looks just incredible.
You know...Witcher 3 is easily one of my most anticipated games by a clear margin, but I will also say that every time I see one of these awesome videos it just makes me wonder how fantastic CyberPunk 2077 is going to look.
I'm hoping that we get some proper gameplay for that right around the time Witcher 3 releases as it does not seem they have plans to talk about it much until that happens. 2015 is looking to be a great year for games.

1) Buy two TF2 keys from the market
2) Buy a copy of the game from here

We have.
Plus the game is designed and told so players who never played any Witcher games before wouldn`t feel lost and disconnected. We`ve put a lot of effort into it.
Also this book will be released to help get into the story:

Does this mean there's heavy amounts of exposition?
Play the first, it'll run on anything and it's a better game than the second.
