The Witcher 4
Let's be real. Ciri-chan's game looks really great and is probably The Game to be hyped for in the coming years.

The game will be broken on release and it will be playable and actually enjoyable 2 years after like every cd projekt game so far.
With that said play cyberpunk if you haven't, you can get past the menu without crashing now and it's a solid game

I dunno bro, it's fair to say the console versions will be upscaled blur-slop, especially if they really reach the 60 FPS on base PS5 goal, but the optimizations they do along the way should help PCs a lot, to avoid blur-slopping.

The setting seems a bit boring, feels like loads of games go for the snowy mountains and forests aesthetic. This is just Skellige but bigger.
Toussaint looked so good, they should have gone for another more foreign place, like Zerrikania or Ofir.

I wouldn't mind having a female witcher protagonist, but shoehorning Ciri is a prime example why everything about this game is a nonsensical piece of dogshit.

Oh, and forget any clever or memorable quests like the Bloody Baron. CDPR has already shown in TW3 they're willing to cut any kind of coherent storyline from the game as late as 6 months before release (they basically butchered the entire storyline from Witcher 3 just 6 months before the release, because it was too coherent, complex and well-written, so they made it for retards. The traces of the old story are still in the leaked source code).

The ending cutscene makes it quite clear that her becoming queenie wasn't really that bad. It was actually a pretty good choice. She just bitched initially, since monster hunting is all she's known for the most part of her life and she didn't know what to expect from the royal life. But then geralt meets her later on and she seems to be settling in perfectly well, thus making it pretty obvious that that was always how her story was truly supposed to have ended.

The empress scene also clearly takes place a few months after the Witcheress scene (The Witcheress ending is in summer, Empress in Winter). And she only becomes Empress, out of her own choice, which she makes, because she meets Emhyr. If she doesn't meet him, she simply doesn't know she might have another choice. Either way, TW4 is going to be dogshit.

Her story ends with her fucking off into the multiverse and meeting galahad. A flash forward hints that she got ELFED as her chosen one son saves the elves from the continent. She was never meant to be some puppet empress for humans.

Unless they pull some metroid shit where she loses all her god powers in the prologue because she tripped over a rock (which would be lame) it will just feel lame.

Many other UE5 games are direct collaborations with Epic. They pay big money to bribe studios to use their shit engine, so it's normal they go help them set it up. It's like you're selling some new heavy machines to car shops. Of course you're gonna go there and help them properly set it up.

Collab or no collab, the devs are always gonna buy the cheapest pre-made assets, which always results in souless crap.

>Why can't we simply start out as some new witcher character that we can design, and explore our own story?
I thought that was the plan at the beginning?

Same.
Never mention woke.
If you can find "problematic" dev opinions or angles in the games, use those.
If not, focus on gameplay, voice acting, graphics,...

UE5 default materials shading looks like utter trash

They say Ciri was always the logical next protagonist but I don't believe it.
I hope someone asks the dawnwalker (former CDPR) devs if that was true at the time W3 released

>Female Protag
>in an RPG

I can only tolerate females in games if:

>I can choose to play as a male for my main, canon playthrough (Cyberpunk for example) and a female for my coomer mods playthrough
>game is a 5-10 hour long slasher with titty physics (Stellar Blade, Nier)

Not gonna tolerate playing a 100 hour Role Playing Game where I need to literally role play as a chick. And that's not even getting into the fact that I just know there's gonna be

>Yass Queen moments/dialogue options
>"Badass armor" (that would have looked better on my white male character) instead of skimpy fantasy bikini armor
>Forced nigger romance for CDPRs ESG Blacked points

Can't wait for this latest trend of forced female protags to die out.

Nigger, what's wrong with you? This is TECH DEMO, actual game was not shown so far.

I don't care. The GPU sellers should factor that in their price. But they won't because GPUs are not focused on gaming anymore.

If they don't pull out playable Geralt or somesuch this won't nearly have the same staying power as W3. Not even remotely

Thats even worse, Geralt story was supposed to be finished but theyre gonna keep milking old charas cause they have no creativity to make a new story with a new base

DC3 effectively killed the series, and RE had male and female MC's for their first two games.

I agree it would be worse. People are now familiar and invested in Witcher as a setting. It's crazy to me it didn't cross their mind to excite everyone with a new story or let people make their own character to play a role in this world. I feel like every normie would be on board with it

I'm sorry but I refuse to play as a female in video games, especially an "RPG". I don't even hate women, it just does absolutely nothing for me. I think a lot of people actually feel this way too and that is why this game is going to bomb.

Don't try it. It's female in first game.
