It could be like the opening cinematic for Witcher 2?

The Wild Hunt is originally presented as a group of spectral riders who gallop through the world, heralding an era of war while snatching up people in the mortal realm to join them. You learn what they really are at the end of TW2 (I think):

[spoiler] In the lengthy dialogue with Letho where he "spills the beans" and tells Geralt of his past, Geralt finally recovers his memories and learns the details of the Wild Hunt and the events that transpired before the first Witcher game. 

The Wild Hunt is actually an elven cavalry who serve powerful elven sorcerers, hailing from a world dominated by elves. Their spectral form is merely their physical manifestation in the realm in which they are "invading." Their leader is shown below: 

They basically control time and space and travel between dimensions. [/spoiler]

At the end of TW2 Nilfgaard begins the invasion of the Northern kingdoms, and this war is the focus of TW3, so it makes sense why they have returned as the game's primary antagonists.

I played witcher 2 and I don't remember ever seeing that.Chutebox

It was added in the Enhanced Edition

If you bought the 360 version, or played the game since the Enhanced Edition released, you'd see it at startup

Mindblowing announcement? No more sex :otagyhag

I wouldn't buy it

The trailer was okay. Too much flashy "300" sh!t.

That crappy trailer is the "mind blowing" annoucement? TC you're silly.

well, from my experience with Witcher 2 I will not be buying into all the hype, probably one of the most boring games I'v played all gen, just behind MGS4 and Lost Odysseylamprey263

That trailer was awesome, better than 2's. How people can say it was bad is really mistifying. :?

Because it's a game trailer.. people want to see how can they be bad asses while playing the game not the game be bad ass on it's own. While i understand that you might be able to do similar things in the game i rather see those similar things. It was bad ass though..

[QUOTE="millerlight89"] I'll be getting it for PS4, as my PC gaming days are over. However, PC version will be top tier, no doubt. millerlight89

Understandable. I get caught up on performance a lot as well and can't really play a game until I have it running as good as I can get it.

Yeah, that's basically how I feel. The trailer was good, but I want to see some in game footage.

The Wild Hunt is originally presented as a group of spectral riders who gallop through the world, heralding an era of war while snatching up people in the mortal realm to join them. You learn what they really are at the end of TW2 (I think):

Since you seem a bit more prepared on this, mind if I ask

[spoiler]

Just who are Yennefer and Ciri? I finally finished The Witcher 2 yesterday and most flashbacks and references to Geralt's past talked about them, but even after the talk with Letho I felt like the game wanted to show some kind of deeper relation between Geralt and Yennefer that I simply couldn't grasp. Did I miss something?

[/spoiler]

"Killing monsters."

Trailer was great, even if it was CGI. Can't wait for this game.

[QUOTE="Tessellation"]the superior PS4 version :cool:heeweesRus

You're delusional. The PS4 version will run between 20fps to 30fps and will have more jaggies and worse texture filtering at a minimum. And the PC version will have other advantages---you aren't going to see the Nvidia hardware PhysX stuff on an AMD-driven PS4 for example.

The trailer was okay. Too much flashy "300" sh!t.

Awesome CGI trailer probably from the same guys who did the Cyberpunk one.

You can ride horses now, calling it here :lol:

Yeah, even though I don't feel the same way as him, I can understand where he is coming from. It can become a real obsession for some people. I like getting good image quality and good performance in my games, but at the end of the day I just play them and enjoy them. If I can't get perfect image quality or performance in a certain game with my current rig then I just find the best settings and quickly get to playing the game.

The best thing for me personally is to own a gaming PC and at least one console. That is where I find the right balance and enjoyment in gaming.

Hope it's gameplay. i can't fuc*en wait for this game! 

[QUOTE="BPoole96"]

[QUOTE="millerlight89"] It mostly has to do with me and what I've begun noticing. First off, the PC exclusives don't interest me as of late. I haven't really LOVED a PC exclusive since STALKER series. I also started to notice I would obsess over frames per second and getting more, and more, and more performance. I found myself worrying too much about the performance I was getting. If a game dipped below 60 fps, I didn't enjoy it as much. I had to have the latest and greats GPUs. IDK, I began getting in one obsessive and strange mindset. Now if something isn't working right on a console, then there isn't much I can do. Since starting back console gaming (PS3, Wii, WiiU) I have noticed that I have started enjoying gaming again. It doesn't feel like a chore anymore. Not that PC gaming is, it was just my mindset. I have begun concentrating on the games, and not the performance and hardware. I've also missed so much this generation. I went bat shit crazy collecting all these games I missed. Since TLOU came out (when I got back init consoles) I have bought like 50 games + a WiiU. Like I said, I missed so much. kalipekona

Meh... mildly disappointing...

Liked the opening for TW2 better, and after hearing so many good things from what they showed behind closed doors this doesn't even give a taste of what's to come.
