How did they make a critically acclaimed masterpiece in just 4 years? it's the best aged game of all time too.
>>
>>735058687
It was from a time you were allowed to only employ white men in your studio, before DEI

>best aged game of all time too.
Not even close
yeah it looks good and writing is good but gameplay is dogshit

Max panye 1 aged better than this
>>
Ugh, I read the books just so I could play these games in order with context but a few hours into the Witcher 1 game I got bored
>>
>>735058687
And only with it only peaking at 250 developers, with most of its dev cycle lower than that. Remember that even Assassins Creed games, which also take 4 years, requires 1000 developers, apparently.
>>
>>735058763
Max Payne 1 did NOT age better lmfao, you're dumb as fuck.
>>
>>735058687
By skimping on the gameplay? I really like this game but I don't think I'll ever replay it
>>
>>735060035
I played it few months ago
gameplay is still fun and intuitive for a game from 2001
>>
>>735059002
you mean you dont enjoy constantly running back and forth and back and forth and back and forth to talk to the same 6 people????
>>
>>735060169
It looks like dogshit.
>>
>>735058687
technically competent people who knew how to use the in-house engine
>>
>>735061667
Gameplay is more fun than Spammer 3
>>
Gameplay's horrible. Not merely bad either, horrible, eurojank at its worst.
>>
>>735058687
I unironically think DAI aged better than it.
>>
>>735058687
>mediocre story
>garbage gameplay
>horrible horse riding
>good graphics and music
>a couple good sidequests
It's 2/10 game.
>>
I live that game like you wouldn't believe.

How do you find the time to fuck infertile sorceresses in this economy?

Once they fixated on you, you just can't escape them anymore. A good dicking is all they want. Many such cases.

By almost killing their studio 3rd time.
Cdpr is shitshow. They always take on projects too big. Burn everything to ground to get it out. Hoping for cdpr magic to make it work.
They got away with it until cp77.

Cdpr underpaid and overworked people. They killed every other project they were working on. They over worked devs. But they managed to finish witcher 3.
Crazy part is that witcher 2/red engine was aperently even more miserable dev cycle. And these crazy bastards quadrupled down. Orginal draft for witcher 3 was 3x bigger then what we got. Time of sword and axe versio is insane. Espesily if you know about witcher 2 dev cycle.

>>735058687
The story wasn't centered around a fuck you gamer atmosphere. It is as simple as that.
>>
>>735062836
Now do Cyberpunk 2077.

I only liked the card game. The rest of the game sucked imo.
>>
The gameplay was never good though?

>>735062794

she looks good naked

>>735059002
you have been consistently told that the first game is for autists and genuinely sucks to play and you didn't listen
>>
>4 years used to extremely long time
>now usual AAA slop takes 6 years to release
>>

Loved Witcher 3 but I haven’t played the game in so long because it’s like 100 fucking hours of content (main+side+dlc quests).
>>
>puts two upgrade points into igni
>instantly win every fight with the press of one button
why did the devs do this? did they not play test?

Because just like with Witcher 2 it was once again do or die for CDPR. Their back was to the wall.

>>735058687
How did Obsidian make a critically acclaimed masterpiece in just 1.5 years, twice?
>>
>>735068154
They got the engine, assets and core gameplay ready to use. They essentially made standalone expansion pack.
>>
>>735068205
Reality check:

BioWare used the same engine before KOTOR 1 with Neverwinter Nights. Bethesda also had the same engine before Fallout 3 with Oblivion.

Both were already working with familiar tech from very similar previously made games.
