@Slade968 I think most players would agree with you there. I was told to play 2 first and only pick up 1 if I really felt I had too.
Without even the age difference between them the enormous difference in quality was more CDPR becoming comfortable with the style and setting they wanted. With the exponential way this dev seems to improve I can't wait to see what they can do with 3.
@raskolnikovro Picture DS, but the world is actually interesting, and it has a story (a very good one at that). When people praise DS they talk about difficulty and combat, when they praise The Witcher they talk about everything.
With the relationship between consumers and the corporate world being as strained as it has been these last few years (in general, not gaming specifically), it's truly suprising that so few companies go so far as CDPR to create goodwill with their customers. Whilst I'm sure CDPR are genuine in what they say, these days more than ever generating goodwill is a smart strategy.
@RustedTruck650 If you enjoy The Witcher, why step down to a game which has similarly fun combat but without the interesting world or story to go with it?
@k0k066 People seem to be really missing the point of what she said on here. Do you read book? Or follow films? You'll notice that most female authors/writers are interested in stories for strong women, or write stronger female characters, and it's the same for men. She's saying that if women want more female-centric content then they need to be stepping up and creating it, not expecting an equality hand-out. She's saying they need to work their way through the industry to where they have proven themselves enough to become creative producers of content.
@andmcq @Skhuff She isn't saying that the industry can't innovate without women, she's saying that the industry will continue to lack more female-centric content until women step up and start creating it. It's absolutely true. The vast majority of people naturally create content from the perspective of their own gender.
@SIDEFX1 I once went to a concept cinema in Japan that sprayed mist when it rained in the movie, introduced smells to match some scenes, and changed the temperature and humidity depending on the scene. it was... different. I think the idea was based on Communist torture techniques left over from the Korean War.
