The only reason for a game to be mature is those two reasons. Any other story can be told and be T or less. There is no other reason to need the rating.

CD Projekt Red over hyping their game and likely failing to deliver on what they promise on launch day again. If it doesn't have anyhting close to what they showed in the tech demo and is bug free, a lot of people are going to be disappointed in it.

lmao, western RPGs in recent times RELY on strapping the sex/erotica onto their games. I'm surprised gamers still haven't spoke up about how instead of improved games, you're just getting the same slop, but with lewd characters & moments. These are even more perverted than japanese games. BG3 is a prime example. There could've been more if they didn't spend as much time making sex scenes/interactions with EVERY npc my character helps out.

tldr: "LOOK, BOOBIES! OOO, LOOK AT THAT ASS OML."
^That's literally a part of the glue that keeps these big western games selling. Sex ALWAYS sells, anon.

I didn't beat bg3 but I played it because the supposed sex was shilled so much here. I Romanced shadowheart to full (iirc) and never saw any sex. Then again my game was really buggy and I also never finished the game (though I got to act 3 iirc). Is there actually that much sex outside of muh bear scene in bg3?

the game was originally advertised as a bioware-like dating sim and during the development basically all straight people forgot it existed while it was in early access because it was so janky. This left the only people giving them feedback no-life homosexuals and artfags which also coincidentally was who was writing the game. They made a random NPC a companion in the early access so you could fuck him because gays wanted to. It's pretty sexual if not explicitly. One companion is in a religious sex cult, another was locked in a sex dungeon for centuries, one is literally wearing bdsm gear when you find her. Everybody's gay too, or some broccoli headed side shaved frfr nigger or lesbian. And the story, whew. You literally get hit on by a squid man and can have sex with him and he can mutate you into a creature like him and I'm pretty sure it's an allegory for becoming a tranny

If only, she's a (((bisexual))) degenerate.

>The games are based on a series of Polish novels and short stories published between 1986 and 2013. In the books, author Andrzej Sapkowski makes it very clear that Ciri is indeed bisexual. She seems attracted to men throughout the series and is romantically interested in Ser Gallahad in Lady of the Lake (1999). In The Time of Contempt (1995) and Baptism of Fire (1996), she is in a relationship with a young woman named Mistle, a fellow member of the outlaw gang “The Rats”.
https://bi.org/en/bi-characters/ciri

>Before leaving the Rats for good, Ciri got the same tattoo (a rose) as Mistle on her inner thigh. After a romantic night, Mistle caught Ciri the next morning attempting to leave. She did not stop her but concluded that Ciri had been more receptive because she was going to leave, and that once she did, Mistle would be forgotten. Ciri promised to never forget her and that she would come back for her "in a six-horse gilded coach. With a retinue of courtiers" and change her fate as well as show her how much she was able to change. Before she finally left, the two kissed and told each other "I love you."

Take advantage of the holes being left in the market. Whenever you see a less than intelligent developer say things like this, use that as motivation to make your game that much better. Your wallet will thank you, the audience will thank you. Become a legend.

They also mentioned killing. Which tells me this is either going to be one of those situations where a character is called out for being too violent and that is a major part of the story that clashes heavily with the actual gameplay or that it’s going to have some stupid moral brow beating about conflict and peace that comes from the mind of a manchild that is simultaneously utterly ignorant of the world and human nature and completely cynical towards it.

Sorry mate, only dads get the spotlight in games due to most of the devs lacking a decent paternal figure. Best you’ll get is a spinster.

>Feminazi game that contradicts the lore as stated by the original author (Women cannot be Witchers).
Dumped, we had a decent run, I'll just go play something else.

I miss when the biggest CDPR controversy was Witcher 2 having controller oriented inventory.

Yep, as much as I like high tech and low life themes, a preachy game gets on your nerves quick. I was able to overlook most of it in the first game and the witcher games. But I'm not the young man I once was, might have to pass on this.

I don't see Ciri being a very interesting protagonist if she's just a typical goodie two shoes. That's not exactly what Geralt was

I'll ignore both even if they turn out to be the most based games ever made. Not popping my Unreal 5 cherry.
