I'm late on the news but I just noticed that they changed Geralt's face to make it more like the original. I liked Geralts new look! Why CD Projekt RED? Why?! :(

NEW look

new look

VS

Original look

old look

Imho, the old look is a step backwards. The NEW look gives this feeling that Geralt evolved as a character. It's a refreshing new look! Why did they have to go and change it back to THAT?

FACE OFF.

Which look do you prefer? Please vote in the poll. Thanks! :)

Updated...

Here's proof that they are going with the OLD look, in this Gametrailers.com video gameplay:

I'm not a big fan of the Witcher, however that first image (look)is way better.

Thank you! It totally goes with Triss' new look and the new graphics engine. Ironically, the old look feels out of place!

It doesn't look like a good year for me. First, they screw up inFamous 2's Cole, then I hear they reduced Bethany's rack, Geralt goes back in time. Who's next? :P

But he looks like a gay boy with the new look....and young. The old look makes him look like a badass and wolf-like, no one would mess with that guy (they would with gay-boy)

:lol: Fair enough! But why not chisel his face a little bit? It looks like he's developing a double chin. One too many muffins?

Maybe the new look is not actually Geralt, but his SON !!!! (old look is the original Geralt Father)

Tbh, keeping the voiceactor from the original would be more important than the graphics.

Huh!? Did I miss something here? They changed his look back to the old geralt? Did they?! Anyway, I think the old Geralt looks WAY more badass, however change is always good, the new Geralt looks more... sophisticated, tidier perhaps a little more mature? Old look is gritty, he looks like a monster hunter.

According to the latest screenshots, yes. They said the screenshots of his NEW look was an older build and that didn't represent anything final. As always. :P

I see. Cool. I just went back and looked at the images again, and realised that the "new" Geralt's face actually looks nothing like Geralt, his features are all different. His eyes and nose look alot different. Glad they went back, was quite liking the ponytail though.

I think they're going to keep the ponytail, which is cool with me. His old hair was way too flat.

Would be cool if you can decide how he wears his hair haha. I mean they DID say there would be more customisation! XD

I like both. The main difference is that the old look has Geralt carrying a few more pounds of fat/muscle.

New Geralt, I dunno..looks like he has a babyface lol

Old Geralt looks like he lived through the events of the first game. Scarred and bruised and ready to kick some monster butt.

I liked the way Geralt looked in the first game and I also like the new look - which was redesigned again? - so there are no worries for me at all, that is why I cast my vote on Triss.

I just want the game already :).

I like the old/original look. New looks too young imo. Old/original looks more seasoned/older/battle-hardened. It has a "hes seen some things man...and some stuff. He wouldn't recommend it!" look to it.

I thought the process that witchers go through halts the age process? The "younger" look of geralt makes no sense in my opinion and I'm glad if he stays true to the original game.
