The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

So we all knew they weren't only are they working on Cyberpunk. Now they've released a trailer for Witcher 3 as well.

Apparently it'll be open-world this time instead of really plot-driven and linear in terms of locations. Might be cool.

Really hope they do implement some fast travel if it's going to be open world. The Witcher 2 already had me walk around a little too much for my taste on occasions.

I enjoyed the beautiful environment too much to care about the running around tbh...

Hmm not sure about open world. Seems to be a bit of an obsession these days. I actually liked the linear aspect of Witcher 2. The environments were so beautiful and what was included was very detailed and well thought out. To many games attempt open world and then lose a lot of the detail as a result in place of scale. Scale can be nice to...but not so sure in this. Nothing wrong with being handed the story on a plate if it is well told.

We shall see anyway. But it'll have a lot to live up to against Witcher 2.

He is the GOD OF METAL. I thought the pink t-shirt was a nice touch.

Well, when you think about it, both the previous games had quite a lot of freedom of movement and exploration, large areas with lots of nice stuff in them. I'm hoping that the next one will still keep that careful approach to area design, and that the open world aspect is more a question of being free to choose the order in which you visit places and do things, not a huge world full of just pointless shit like Skyrim. Kind of like how it was in DA:O except with a proper open world you can move about in, with hopefully fun stuff in between the main locations as well.

Interesting stuff. What's the source? Is it from the leaked Game Informer stuff or what?

It's not all new (last game had hairstyle changes already etc) but together it sounds almost too good to be true. Exploration by boat gives me flashbacks to Wind Waker. Man I loved that game. There was a truly exciting and engaging open world if I've ever seen one.
