>>3990808 Jarvis, give me a rundown on the demographics of the current development teams compared to that of the base game and earlier DLC. Cross-reference changes to any DEI policies
>>3990808 Eating shit isn't eating good. It will be prophetic in predicting the magnitude of shit-storm called Witcher 4 though. I would prefer they refrain from raping Witcher 3 at all, in fact. Even if W3 is a casual adventure slop, it had its moments. But neither of those moments involved post fog island Ciri that this DLC will surely have more of.
>>3990808 Hearts dlc at least fleshed out map a bit, Blood and Wine was just a separate adventure.
It would be perfect if this dlc arrived with some update to fix a lot of W3, while actual dlc expanded on cut content or stuff that is blatantly missing. Iorveth, that plague subplot, Saskia, Siegfried, that good Witcher hunter all of this in particular could show up. Maybe they could try to fix the absolute retardation of political plots too and pacing and quality of a later part of main game.
I hate everything related to leveling and equipment and RPG mechanics like this, but that's unfixable without overhauling game completely.
But most likely it will just some separate adventure to tie it to Witcher 4 and instead of fixing and improving W3, it has a huge chance of fucking it up.
>>3990808 >AI slop Look at the angle of the sword, then look at the scabbard. >geralt looking doughy as fuck >long torso, short thighs They also manletized him? >belt hanging lose to the point where if he wasn't spreading his legs his shit would fall down Grim in its goofiness
>>3992338 Likely both, if it is before everyone gets scattered at the end of the books/beginning of the games they'll have Ciri around in a way that doesn't require them to write around W3's endings way easier to set up next stuff
>>3990832 It's not the same team. Fool's Theory is alright, but they haven't made anything on this level of budget. I rather enjoyed both the Thaumaturge and Seven. They're also the studio working on Witcher 1 remake.
>>3993302 Just dive in. The only mod I would personally recommend is the “red skull mod” as there’s a mechanic where, if an enemy is +N levels higher than you, in addition to its stats being much better than yours, it also arbitrarily does 10x damage to you and you do 0.1x damage to it, which sucks and takes away the ability to defeat a higher level enemy through skill.
>>3993311 Level locking areas and quests is one thing but level locking combat encounters is retarded. Pissed me off so much during my first playthrough because I was taking harder quests and grinding monster encounters early to level up faster but was coming against this dogshit mechanic.
>>3993314 Yes. Also to add to this, be aware that the game is scaled such speedrunning the main quest gives you tons of XP. If you are a completionist and do tons of side questing, you will inevitably end up overleveled.
>>3990808 >AI picture Look at sword and end of scabbard. It's going to be gay and a retcon installment to justify and "explain" the retardation that will be Witcher 4.
>>3992346 Writing around things isn't how CD Projekt handled the previous Witcher games. Regardless of your individual choices, they decided on a canon.
>>3993336 Which is honestly how it should be. Or you fall into the Bioware trap where every minute thing from the previous games has to be referenced or fans get butthurt.
>>3993311 >which sucks and takes away the ability to defeat a higher level enemy through skill. how is this supposed to be good it's supposed to be a fucking RPG devs claim it's RPG
>>3993414 Because the higher level enemy already has higher defense, HP, damage, owing to its higher level. That is to be expected from RPG mechanics. Then, in addition to those statistical advantages, the devs also added an utterly arbitrary scaling factor of 10x incoming damage/ 0.1x outgoing damage that only applies when there is a sufficient level difference. That part is silly and arbitrary.
>>3995791 >>3995816 >I'm pretty hyped for this. Why would you support them selling the same game again instead of making a new one? Jews were right, the goyim are not people.
>>3992338 That's the wrong question. The real question is, how fucking retarded is W4 going to be, that it requires a whole new DLC to fuck up the lore and change the story to justify itself
>>3995872 >You don't know Witcher 1 I've played Witcher 1, so start with an apology for your slander and rude behavior. Though I expected nothing less from a goyim.
>>3992338 Because they're obsessed with Geralt's story being over as their excuse for making Ciri the new protag. If the new DLC takes place after the events of 3 it's them admitting his story can continue and they can't allow that
