Why does Witcher 4 have zero hype?
Because the only thing we've seen about it so far is a "gameplay" trailer that was most likely comprised of pre-rendered footage.
I still remember Cyberpunk
>>739162812No point in getting excited for something that won't even get a hint of a release date for at least 2 years.
>>739162812Because 2077 was the only good game they made.
Reminder ciri was literally a child prostitute in the books and it never once gets mentioned in the games
>give gerald a nice send off>wow cool now maybe in the next one you can make your own witcher, pick a school with perhaps some specific abilities, make your own swords, and then you can>oh its ciri again......
>>739162923Thisto fall so far after Witcher 3 GOAT status...the trajectory is clear
>>739162978Just because you liked the anime doesn't mean the game was good
>>739162812Cyberscam was bad, and Witcher 3's open world was laughable. It also came out 11 years ago. And nobody *actually* cares about Ciri. They liked Getalt's want to find her or protect her. Actually playing as her for 100 hours as she's inexplicably gone through the Trial of the Grasses for some unfathomable reason? Probably not.
>>739162812Because CDPR didn't activate their army of shills yet
UE5slop
>>739162812People are starting to realize CDPR is the new Bethesda releasing overhyped underwhelming "RPGs". The majority will still be duped by TW4 once the marketing fully starts though.

>>739162812It does look impressive.
>>739163508That is correct and when it happens shills will be at full force and Larry Fink will buy all of the games to make it seem like a success?
Trailer was rad
>>739162812because I wanted a blank slate witcher, wouldnt have played if it were geralt again either
>>739164189Trailer was fake as fuck retard
>Why does Witcher 4 have zero hype?because we have a good idea of what to expect. They even tell us we're not wanted.

>>739162812They turned a male power fantasy about killing monsters and fucking lots of hot women into a lesbian girlboss game.

>>739162812They made a public humiliation ritual allegiance video to ESG and DEI years ago. Look at this man, look at his eyes, he looks like he'd be more comfortable as an ISIS hostage.
>>739162812Witcher 3 finished the story, Cyberpunk sucked. Nothing to get excited over.
>>739162812"woman screaming" trailer killed all the hype
>>739162812People are tired of fantasy, give us Cyberpunk 2.
>>739163018just because you still don't have the hardware to run it doesn't mean the game was bad
I'm just here for the soundtrack to be honest

>>739162812>Ugly post-wall female protagonist>In a way that rapes the established role>They are already proudly bragging that they give zero fucks about the lore, so zero confidence in writing of the game>Everyone knows modern CDPR is pozzed to brim>Probably gonna get some forced slop romance with an ugly girl>Bunch of other shoehorned libtard nonsense too>UE5 so shit performance is expectedIt's unimaginably difficult to feel any hype for this game.Only "hype" is culture war addict troons pretending to be interested in the game to troll da chooodz like this creature here >>739164412
Because nobody wants to play as Ciri. She's a generic Mary Sue girlboss who automatically drags the experience down into the shitter when the focus is on her and not Geraldo. The most interesting thing that ever happened to her was getting raped and groomed by a dyke.
>>739166723I wasn't interested before but this outright discouraged me
>>739163018I didnt watch the animay and still like the game
>>739162812DEI ruined having hype for new things because there's a huge possibility that any game getting released is pozzed with woke shit, so people learned to not expect nothing anymore.
>>739167467>culture war addict troons The call is coming from inside the house anon lmao
>>739162978>>739163018both the game and the fake anime were shit

>>739166723Legit looked like someone was holding a gun in front of himhttps://youtu.be/QU-db73BAFI?si=MgSFt8xDhlftqAiW
>>739162812It's going to be their best selling game, isn't it?
>>7391628121. I don't play as women in games2. Cyberpunk3. The gameplay in Witcher 3 was complete ass cheeks and I strongly doubt they have gotten much better on that front
I didn't care for playing as Ciri when she was young and hot, why would I want to play her as an old dyke? She was tolerable from Geralts perspective. He and Yennefer cared about her, and since I cared about them, I cared about her. There's nothing all that likeable or relatable about her. She was quite literally a Mary Sue, which was fine in Geralt's story as this was his daughter. As the main character, she's got nothing going for her.
>>739168412Mid 20sOld
>>739168543Yes. And she's probably closer to 30/+ in Witcher 4.she's still not going to sleep with you, simp
>>739162923I still remember Witcher 3.
>>739168543>Here's that young college kid I was tellin' ya about
>>739168786Yeah mid 20s, late 20s. Around there, still hot
>>739162812Everyone influential on TW3 is now at rebel wolves making blood of the dawnwalker. CDPR opened American studios, hired women & troons, and there is 0% chance TW4 is anything more than modern audience slop.
>>739163851Yes selling 40 million copies means you lost.
>>739162812>UE5 tech looks like absolute dogshit>people still want Geralt>people don't want to play a girl>people are fatigued from women replacing men in classic series>people are fatigued from the dogshit TV show that replaced the main character who was a huge Witcher fan and fully committed to the role and lore, this stab in the back approved by all sides>decent section of people still unwilling to support CDPR after CP77's launch.
>>739169170>>people are fatigued from women replacing men in classic seriesThis too, especially in a way that emasculates the former male lead.They think they are being subtle and clever but they are not, the pattern is extremely obvious and glaring.
Is that Witcher 3 tie-in DLC coming or was that a fake rumor?
>>739169346>was that a fake rumor?I hope so. My little bro is a certified believer.
>>739168228Indeed
I don't care for Ciri, and I don't want to play as a girl either.I would be waiting with bated breath if we played as Eskel. Or a young Vesemir. At least make our own Witcher. But it's le stronk girl who is not really a witcher at all, more like a magical teleporting sword fairy.
>>739162923Cyberpunk was a great game. What are you thinking about?
I'm not playing as an insufferable argumentative girlbossGive me Geralt or any other witcher or I'm not playing
>>739162812Because we know, both, too much and too little. We know that it's going to be W3 v2 but we don't know what new systems and mechanics it's going to introduce. The former is boring because it is known and the latter is interesting, because unknown, but that also means we have nothing to talk about. It would be nothing but speculation.
>>739169580Cyberpunk was so broken at release that it took them an entire 3 extra years post-launch to just unfuck the game.
>>739162812People are apprehensive of Ciri becoming the MC. Also we barely have any demonstration of the gameplay now.
>>739169140Did ubisoft die from one woke game?
>>739169750All I need to know is how underwhelming they made her look, what they said about her, and that they turned her into a shitty witcher.No thanks
>>739162812All of the worst parts of Witcher 3 center around Ciri. Part of the reason the Witcher 3 expansions are so good is because Ciri is gone. Building another game around her is a massive red flag.The second red flag is going to be the DLC that is supposed to be coming out for W3. I guarantee it's going to be 'the bad one' when compared to the other two.
>>739169580I wish more people were this chill on social media
Oh boy I sure can't wait to play movie game with Mary Sue protagonist #141245
>>739162923People also forgot how buggy and broken witcher 3 was at and near launch.I had to wait for patches 4 times because a story quest didnt work
>>739162990i read the books (in polish) and do not recall this. then again, i didn't really care about her (and still don't)
>>739162812I wonder why
>>739162812The Witcher universe isn't that fun. Wow, Poland is a hell hole woaaahhhh!
>>739169934I was one of the very few people who never experienced any problems with The Witcher 3 at launch. Never had any bugs, never had any save problems, never had any performance issues, didn't experience any graphic-related glitches and I even had almost no issues with Geralt or Roach's controls, except for a few annoyances here and there.
>>739164056Open ciri's legs.
I already played as ciri. It was boring. She's not even hot, she's got those attrocious fucking panda eyes. And she some how makes white hair look basic.Witcher 4 should have had a character creator and been set immediately post conjunction as the first gen of witchers. I have character driven story fatigue.
>>739170096It's just Shrek but with a Mary Sue
>>739169580kek
>>739162812wegs where u play as female are some gay submissive shit, dawg. geralt was a boss bc u could fuk all the women. u gonna walk around fukkin men as ciri? i mean i guess that guy in the skyrim thread will probably do it, but some of u niggas sure r gay
>>739162812>female protaganist
>>739166723This is what Globohomo does to people
>>739162812game feels like it was made for cunts, trannies and faggotsjust wait closer to release date, they will flood this place like locusts to "hype"
>>739170939>has literal "teleports behind you" powers>voluntarily injects krokodil to sterilize her womb and get the magic power equivalent of a wet fart
>>739162812No one wants to play as a Mary Stue in a Role-Playing Game. Not a hard concept to grasp.
>>739162812>Why does Witcher 4 have zero hype?I don't like Ciri as a main character. She's ok as a side character but even then she's meh. If CDPR were demanded to make a game with a female protagonist to secure their blackrock money they should've used a brand new IP and pick a more fitting female protagonist. I'll probably still play the game but that's only because i enjoy the fantasy European setting.
>>739171057i dont know anything about the book but are the two powers incompatible or would she just get both
>>739169580>Cyberpunk was a great game
>>739171164godlike speed and teleportation makes all the witcher signs and mutagens seem like parlor tricksit's incompatible through sheer redundancy and feels like it was tacked on only so that Ciri can be the protagonist
I hate Ciri. The entire book cycle would be far better off without her. I'm not going to touch the fourth game.
>>739171164The witcher powers were nothing special in the books compared to magic, the bad wizard guy pretty much destroyed Geralt in 1v1 in a couple of seconds. Had to gang up on him with Yen - a magic user - and a broken super-vampire AND they would still lose if not for an artifact from another magic user.In the games though it's pretty obvious that the witchers are simply the best and can do anything they want and everybody desires even a tiny bit of their super powers because even if they can never compare to the demigod Geralt is they can at least conquer a kingdom or two. It was a thing from the very first game, and in such a setting Ciri would be dumb not to become a witcher.
>>739162923This.Imagine buying a cdpr game on release or getting hyped, lmao.>b-but trigger made an okay anime with lolibait so that means thr game is good nowIf only it was that easy.
>>739171480All the games did was enhance geralts fighting prowess tho...And Ciri was still vastly more powerful than him...
>>739162812I still haven't played Witcher 3. I bought Witcher 1 and it somehow ran worse on my computer than modern games do and it also failed to leave me invested so I never finished it. Thus I never played Witcher 2 and I never played Witcher 3. On its own I feel no pull to play or try Witcher 3. People just repeat all the time how amazing it supposedly is. But Witcher 1 didn't grab me. Witcher 2 hasn't either. And from looking at Witcher 3 I am just not seeing it. And having not played Witcher 3 I have no excitement towards Witcher 4.
>>739162812I play the Witcher games to be a grizzled old man, world weary and wizened. I don't play them to be a hyperactive quirky girlboss who teleports through realities.Just like I don't want Bayonetta to star Sidorovich from S.T.A.L.K.E.R., you know?
>>739171098Nah, you're wrong. It's not that she's a Mary Stue it's the fact that her character as a whole is shit. Mary Stue characters can work in the right setting and with the correct writing and vision.
>>739171737/thread
Ciri was the worst part of the books. People just put up with her in TW3 because she was hot.
>>739171575Two of three games had the antagonists possessing witcher powers as the core plot. The setting also directly contradicts the books - while in the books the monsters are sparse and gonna die out completely in the next few generations, that is not the case in the games, which obviously boosts up importance of witchers quite a lot.Basically, in the books Witcher Ciri would simply have no work. In the games it's a road to power, prestige and stable income.
>>739162923Cyberpunk is the sole reason I'm probably buying Witcher 4 on release. Not joking.Single-handedly proved to me CDPR is the only AAA developer who can actually tell an interesting story. I couldn't care less that the gameplay was fairly mediocre. But keep letting /v/ and streamers be your opinions. You'll grow up eventually.
>>739172109The games need gameplay and thus a lot of monsters. It's another case of that famous ((ludonarrative dissonance)).
>>739171695it's not the game's fault you have anhedonia
>>739162812Ciri was the worst part of Witcher 3 and now the new game is all about her? Fuck that.
>>739172146>anhedoniaIt's a-hedoniat. greek
>>739162812Witcher gameplay sucked and Ciri isn't interesting enough to hook people on any potential story like Geralt was.
Because nobody actually wants to play as Ciri
>>739172135There is no dissonance because the devs fully embraced the fact their setting should be teeming with dangerous monsters. They purposefully rewrote that part of the setting, just as they rewrote the joke about the prophecy being a misunderstanding into it actually being a big scary threat for our heroes to tackle. One way or another, there is a constant demand for witchers both in gameplay and in the story. I can't say if it's good or bad, but it's simply a fact.
>>739172219The gameplay really was ass. I don't think people realize how much of a draw Geralt was, as well as the love triangle with gorgeous women. I endured the shit gameplay for him and the story which was generally good. I just don't have an interest in Ciri's story. The gameplay would have to be absolutely exceptional, which I doubt it will be.
>>739162812no geraldo = no buy
>>739172146I still super love videogames and play games and new games all the time though. Just yesterday I finally started Team Ladybug's Lodoss War game with Deedlit. Having previously played their Touhou and SMT games. And I also started that Big Hops indie platformer game. And that's coming down from Mewgenics and Pokopia. And I still play my fighting games regularly. And soon I'll play Mina the Hollower in a week. Maybe even that Yoshi game if it isn't shit. But I still don't feel like playing Witcher 1 again. I am probably going to give Morrowind's Tamriel Rebuilt when the Poison Song expansion drops later this year, assuming it isn't it isn't delayed.
>>739171737> want Bayonetta to star Sidorovich from S.T.A.L.K.E.R.,Well, anon... I uh... I kinda like the idea...
>>739162812I refuse to give cdproject gay my money
>>739168337>based vidya opinion>based male who only plays his own genderhow can one anon be so based?!
someone post the pasta already
>>739162812It doesnt need hype. it would benefit players if there is no hype made on social media. the release of cyberpunk proved that games media and players are incapable of managing their expectations and not confused their fever dreams with reality.
>739172120 (You)
>>739164347How
The Bitcher will get raped by Blood of the Dawnwalker
>>739171958>>Mary Stue characters can work in the right setting and with the correct writing and vision.No it can't. Not in a Role Playing Game.
>>739172120>an interesting storySo you never played rpgs before? (Not that cyberpunk is an rpg anyway)>streamersStreamers are the ones saying the magical update fixed everything. Maybe stop watching streamers bro.
>>739167138The game runs on shittop what the fuck are you on about
>>739173253Name a better story. Come on.I've played more RPGs than you have videogames. I was probably playing RPGs since before you were born.Let's hear what you think is a great story so we can all laugh.
>>739172109Except she already has more power than any Witcher could ever have and the games make it quite clear that from a purely story perspective Witchers are still fucking poor and every single one of them (except Eskel kinda sorta) just wants to retire.
>>739164412someone post the version where these two are getting railed
>>739162812No Geralt, no buy.
>>739173340We're already all out here laughing at your dumb ass thinking Cyberpunk had a good story. No need to try a clumsy UNO reversal mate.
>>739162812Because it isn't being made by the Witcher 3 team. All those guys quit and went to make Rebel Wolves because cd projekt red is a shit workplace to be in.
>>739162812Witcher 3 was a fucking decade ago
>>739168069and here's another one
>>739162812>get burned by Witcher 1-3>get burned by Trannypunk>t-t-this time will be d-d-different for sure you'll s-s-seedelusional
>>739173415>cyberpunk was 5 1/2 years ago
>>739162812I'm in "wait and see" mode.The engine showcase had 100% White NPCs and Ciri didn't look like a tranny, but I don't trust them to not turn the game into a woke messI'm way more hyped for Dawnwalker>>739167015>people are tired of niggers and foids, give us traditional White Male Fighter fantasyftfy
>>739162812What talented devs are still in CDPR?
>>739167680I do, I like ciri
>>739173393Yeah, figures.Everytime some knuckle dragger calls CP's story bad, they never name their better stories. Funny, isn't it?
>>739173529nigger how the fuck were you burned by witcher 1 and 2? you're probably not even old enough to have played them
>>739162923Last game I bought full price on the very first day. 42 usd!
>>739173340>a better story>I've played more RPGs than you have videogames. I was probably playing RPGs since before you were born.I don't mind if people like CP2077 but it should not be compared to actual RPGs. For one because it barely has the mechanics of one.My pick for best RPG story would be Torment and comparing 2077's story to that is pointless. One is a proper isometric RPG for 120IQ white men, 2077 is a kinda typical "quadrupleA" with celebrity marketing
>>739162923Still haven't played it lel
>>739174365you haven't played it because you listen to other people telling you it's bad? that seems pretty low iq
>>739174389No I am not that keen on it. Already have it, just haven't touched it yet
>>739162812Because cyberpunk wasn't ready at launch and most people think rightfully so that it'll be shit with a side of lame.
I don't like the direction they went with the witcher 2 and 3, there is also cyberpunk which was enjoyable but showed they are lying/biting off way more than they can chew.
>>739174308Talking about mechanics and then praising Torment is so insanely ironic I don't even know what to tell you.Game that locks a ton of the story behind a single build, with atrocious combat and virtually no other systems to speak of whatsoever.Again, you just sound like a midwit who cannot think critically and feels smart for hating on something because 'uuuh there's a celebrity in it'.Torment's story is good (I would not say it is better than Cyberpunk's by any means) but as a game? It's significantly worse than Cyberpunk.
>>739174389majority of people who hate on it just hate it on principle because muh keanu chungusmost of them didn't even clear the prologuethe funniest part is Keanu is probably the best part of the game
>>739162812it's got "woke" written all over it
>>739162812I don't want to play as a woman.
>>739162812Forced female protagonist in a series that always had a male protagonist. So bearing that glaring flaw in mind, it's more than likely to be giga woke and terrible.The devs of Fable were at least smart enough to adapt to overwhelming fan demand. CD Projekt Red are too arrogant from past successes like Bungie, and will be brought down with a massive stinky flop.
>>739162812siri isnt even a witchershould be elder blood child 1 not witcher 4
>>739162812Nobody wants to play as a girlboss
>>739174971Growing up is realizing Geralt is a boyboss and you're doing the same thing.

>>739162812Personally I don't like Ciri as a character and I don't want to mainly play as her. Also switching to Unreal Engine is a huge mistake.
>>739174513Reading comprehension, I said Torment's story is good not mechanics. And it still has more RPG mechanics than 2077>Game that locks a ton of the story behind a single build,The defining trait of a western RPG is freedom of choice>with atrocious combatIt never had bad combat compared to other isometric wRPGs unless you believe RTWP is inherently bad which is not objective. It's simply average and does the job>and virtually no other systems to speak of whatsoever.It basically has all the systems 2077 has AKA bog standard expectations from a wRPG (stats, skills, unlockable dialogue choices) except 2077 doesn't push them to a more serious level because they had to spend 200 gorillion for a bad clone of GTA in map and gameplay, and the normalfags would be scared off by too much dialogue/complexity>Again, you just sound like a midwit who cannot think criticallyBoo hoo everyone that doesn't like my favorite game is le dumb!!> but as a game? It's significantly worse than Cyberpunk.No tripleA from today is in any way a better game than classics from the 90s or 00s2077 has eceleb trannies in it (lmao) and more niggers than San Andreas. It will never be a better game than the RPG with the most inspired setting, characters and story in wRPG history. To say the game isn't inferior on the grounds of it's identity alone is admitting you are a retarded golem who shouldn't speak on RPGs at all frankly, these games should not be compared. It's really a matter of dignity honestly, 2077 became a good product with patches and DLC but it's a game made by subverted polish cucks who want to appeal to the degenerate part of the american audience instead of taking a setting with potential like CP and putting it to a good use. Had they done that to perfection I would be willing to compare it to Torment, otherwise a soulless politicized normalcattle game, even a polished one, does not deserve that comparison
>>739175208>Mask of the BetrayerLol. Come on now.>ArcanumThe actual story of arcanum is pretty basic and generic. It's just the setting that's interesting.>BG trilogyNone of the three games have particularly interesting stories. They're all just 'chase the bad guy'. Hilariously enough 3 probably has the best one because it at least offers you plenty of choices, but it's still a pretty generic hollywood plot.>hordes of the underarkbro please stop posting neverwinterit's not funny>FalloutFallout is known for it's stories being campy and shit, particularly the originals.>GothicNot really. Interesting scenario, but the characters and story itself is pretty dry. The game carries.>Max PayneVery good, but it's mainly how the story is told, not the story itself.>CoDNever played it, don't care.
>>739175264I was going to reply to you seriously, but then you said>The defining trait of a western RPG is freedom of choiceWhen addressing an argument that was literally 'play this build or miss half the game'I think you're the one who needs to work on your reading comprehension.
>>739174971Nah, just give her a chance to get naked in a few cutscenes and I'm sold.
>>739162812Isn’t she a lesbian now who is with a black woman some how
i mean if this is a girl it cannot be "witcher", this should be witch.
>>739162812Because the TW3 and CP77 was the worst of millennial developing and nobody gives a fuck about this company anymore
CD Projekt Red are no more. Theyre a w0ke studio filled with trannies, females, and onions cucks. Ciri looks like Shrek and they removed her tits. So you KNOW what kind of game this is. Weve seen it a million times already. Another franchise goes w0ke and becomes trash. It will get some mediocre sales from the uninformed normies like OP, and then never be heard of again. Many such cases.
>>739162812because 2 and 3 were shit?
>>739175449Except that didn't happen and you are being hyperbolic to defend a game that frankly should have no defense beyond "it was alright and the story was good"2nd lie about Torment now btw like the combat being terrible one. I think you just prefer tripleA titles instead of proper RPGs, you have done nothing but disparage the classics >>739175396in favor of a game that really doesn't deserve it. It's a typical "emotional" story that is executed fairly well and thus appeal to normalfags but several major characters are not very complex and actually there's way too many characters as well like the Voodoo niggers who had one scene to justify their existence in the gameMask of the Betrayer is an example of having a small but more nuanced cast around a MUCH more interesting idea than "I'm dying and Keanu Reeves is my best friend"
>>739175664What?Not sure about E33 but Witcher 3 shouldn't be in the list at allA drooling nigger retard made this pic
>>739175664im sure all of this games are good exvept dustborn
>>739175870E33 has it's quirk chungus quips moments but overall I wouldn't say it deserves to be on the list.Obvious cheap ragebait.
>>739175863Praising games for being 'classics' is legitimately neanderthal behavior. I get that you're probably a zoomer, but no, praising those games blindly doesn't make you seem like a connoisseur.The combat in Torment IS awful and even most big fans of the game admit it. CRPGs can have interesting combat, like Underrail, some of the Pathfinder games, but most of the classics have ABYSMAL combat. I'm too lazy to go find the webm of the 'epic' BG2 dragon fight but you know the one.The 'emotional' part of CP2077 is it's weakest part. Jackie doesn't stay long enough for us to care, and the timer for V's death not being real means we don't care, either. What makes it great IS the depth of the characters. Johnny ISN'T your friend. He's a fucking tool and can betray you if you acknowledge this. His memories are incredibly innacurate, and almost all of what he does is an act. There's a ton of nuance to the story, on top of it being told incredibly well from an audiovisual/cinematography perspective.Torment? The Nameless One is so irrelevant and just a plot device for exposition. Morte is comic relief. Annah is the absolute most barebones subversion 'wow chaste succcubus so unique' shit. All the characters are immensely one dimensional or pointless, and the game's setting carries it completely.
>>739176523Whatever helps you cope at nightSurely 2077 will be remembered on the level of those cRPGs 20 years after the release and not as some mid game mostly fanboyed by normalfags
>>739162812why would the average gamer be excited about playing as a dyke
>>739176761Both will be forgotten in 10 years, there will be 10 000 other games between now and then, and you'll see people speaking of Cyberpunk as they do about Torment and Fallout now.
>>739162812Ciri is hot so I am excited
>>739162812Female lead in a male-oriented game.
>>739176891lol no you won’t, the most impressive thing about CP2077 is its city’s design, not it’s writing nor RPG elements since it’s a limpdick in the RPG category.
>>739176761I guarantee you more people will be speaking about CP2077 in 10 years than they will Torment.Nobody even talks about Torment anymore, not even here.
>>739173668then stop being gaE
>>739176957I guarantee you they won’t, maybe they’ll keep talking about the anime and how heckin tragic it was.
>>739176950Doesn't matter, it's popular, it's gonna stay in people's minds just for that. Like whichever retard that was few posts above that doesn't remember how Torment plays, only that it was "good".
>>739173359Yes and if Ciri was after riches she could just become Empress of Nilfgaard and call it a day.
>>739175208>BG trilogyduology. Then there is the gay porn dating sim
>>739173616Ciri was still desexualized bogged realismlop femGeralt.Pass, no matter what
>>739175664W3 doesn't fit. The rest is spot on
>>739175894You are wrong
They better give Ciri the option to fuck multiple guys as well as womenIf Geralt is allowed to be a turboslut then its only fair
>>739178123A sultry female vampire and manly male werewolf love triangle! With the optional harem ending!
>>739175664I am pretty sure it's (you) made this post, and you didn't play any of those games
>>739179104>struck a nerve
>>739176957Nah, Torment is pretty legendary and will always have that status. Cyberpunk will only be know as that glitchy boring junk heap they made an anime about.
>>739162812Because it's more of Witcher 3
>>739162812>Why does Witcher 4 have zero hype?Majority of people don't wanna play as a stronk empowered womyn and it has zero coom factor, so there's no audience for it. They even butchered the lore to make her a witcher, so the lore autists won't care about the game either. Who is the game for? For the investors, probably, so let them buy it.
>>739162812>Why does Witcher 4 have zero hype?Because the devs are too scared to introduce futa romances
To me, The Witcher ended with Geralt retiring to Corvo Bianco with Yennefer. When I look at the announcement, I don't feel excited. I feel troubled. I don't trust game devs anymore to deliver proper games. If it flops, then it flops, and I continue my day normally. If it's actually good, then I am pleased to know my pessimism has been proven wrong.
>>739162812>join Skjall in the stable
>>739162812>Witcher 4?
>witcher>mc isnt a witcher
>>739162812I liked TW 1-3 but I'm also done with the IP. I just want more CP2077 now.
>>739179820That's the way. Story was done, Geralt was done, players were done after 3 games.
>>739180079>more CP2077 now.no thanks
>>739180045based
>>739174513>Torment's story is good (I would not say it is better than Cyberpunk's by any meansTrolling used to be an artform.
>>739180067Ciri is a witcher
>>739182072Nope. She's a woman.And it would be a nonsensical downgrade either way
>>739168832Everyone liked Witcher 3, stop being a contrarian faggot just because it was popular with plebbitors
>>739162812>trusting a single word from CDPR after the Cyberpunk fiasco
>>739182787No man, >>739168832 is right. There was huge downgrade of Wither 3. Devs denying, lying about it and other shit. The game still looks worse than that 2014 gameplay demo... Even with the bullshit RT shoved into the game. People from CDPR allegedly say that it was miracle W3 came out good. Even then it had troubled mismanaged developement.I don't trust them since then.
>>739175013Retard.
>>739162883not pre-rendered but heavily scripted and AI upscaled to fuck.
>>739162812>No Geralt>Girlboss Ciri>CDPR turned EXTREMELY pro-woke these last few years>The devs that made the original Witcher games left to make Blood of Dawnwalker.>UE5, and all the shit saddled with it.Those are the main reasons.
>>739185712>No GeraltHe's gonna be in the game>Girlboss CiriShe was a girlboss in TW3 as well, hell she's always been a girlboss that's her entire character right from the books
> Cyberpunk on release was a mess, and even now is a far cry from what was promised (I still remember the gameplay trailer they made where you could climb walls with the mantis cyberware)> The story is over by Witcher 3 and it's DLCs, they close all the relevant threads: Geralt is retired, the Wild Hunt and the White Frost are no longer a threat, Ciri is independent and with some control of her powers, the Northern Realms are over, etc (they will probably continue the story with Master Mirror as a threat, but even still, it's not enough to make it exciting)> The idea lacks originality, there's nothing revealed so far beyond "YOU PLAY AS THE WITCHERESS NOW!"Those are the main things for me, I couldn't care less about the change of protagonist or whatever.If they at least attempted something more risky or original (idk, how about playing as a wandering knight? or anything other than a Witcher? or at the very least, a new one that has nothing to do with Geralt?) I would be interested, but the truth is that I have 0 faith in modern CDRed (Phantom Liberty was nice, but it hardly serves as an apology for the main game).
>>739162812witcher 3 was a step back and then the netflix series was utter trash. the franchise is on life support
>>739162812god please let me roleplay as a slut in witcher4
>>739186767Wish granted but you exclusively fuck old, fat, ugly hags in long, drawn-out, unskippable cutscenes.
>>739178035>playing bg3 on console
>>739186427they know they have a fanbase of retards they can extract money from after the success of that shitty anime so why try any harder than they need to?
>>739162812They still did not make a game better then the first.
>>739186427>Geralt is retiredWhy do people keep pushing this made up nonsense? He doesn't stop being a witcher at the end of 3
>>739162812Womeme protagonist. Chuds and trannies alike prefer custom characters
>>739179482How is a drawing a pot "gameplay"?No wonder their games are ultra boring, they don't even know what gameplay is
>>739173397Not really a shit workplace, they just got directionless after the Witcher 3 because their success brought too much investment, and that investment brought too many corpo suits with their awful opinions. And you can see that by Cyberpunk, that started and was announced as one thing, and got changed so much during development it was basically another game. Went from an RPG, to Far Cry in the city.CDPR nowadays is too big to not fail, places like that are antagonists to creativity, every decision now must go through a board of execs comprised of investors, banker jews, and in the case of CDPR, also politicians because they also got government money. Every single choice now must be proven right through research data, and case studies.
You WILL play as a strong independent woman in our woke Ubislop and you WILL like it.
das rite chud
>>739170939Wow this looks kinda badAssassins creed tier combat but somehow less fun.
>>739169754I had more fun at launch than i do with it now. The bugs were fun. Just randomly having my car launch into the stratsophere because i hit the sidewalk gave me some chuckles.
>>739182072she didnt go through the trialsshe isnt a witcher
>Winds howling>no waves
>WHY DOES A WHITE ZIGGER SWQITZERLAND OR WHATEVER SHIT COUNTERY GAME HAVE NO HYPECUZ ITS MADE BY KEK WHITE NIGGERS
>>739162812Because women arent hype
>>739162812CDPR intentionally killed the hype deader than Concord
>>739187327because it's cannon according to CDPR, along with Ciri being an official Witcher who passed the Trials of the Grasses like the stunbrave girlboss she is
>>739171164Incompatible, Witcher mutagens change your biology, turns you into a mutant. Ciri is neither a mage nor a witcher, while she got training in both. She is an ex machina with broken powers, chosen lineage, and brighter future. Telling me she chose to toss all that out just so she could drink poison, and work doing meaningless tasks for meaningless pay to dirty shit stained peasants that hates her for being a mutant... That makes no sense.Hell, even if she got no mutagens, why the fuck would she stay in this universe to begin with risking her life for scraps? The witcher world sucks for the characters in it, it's dark ages that never ends, dirtier, with monsters in every corner, more racial tension, and people that are even more stupid and prejudiced. Why would she want to live there forever, when she can choose better places?
take that, chuds
>>739162812I wish they stopped trying to make ciri a thing.
>>739171562reminder that if it was up to people making the game, there would be no lolibait.CDPR is full of white liberal women and trannies with shittiest tastes possible.
>>739162812actual employable talent left studio after the nuclear waste that was cyberpunk.only employees left are the talentless slops that were too afraid to leave.
>>739191304Anon... The books are about trying to make Ciri "a thing" and failing hard at that. Witcher 4 trying to shove her down your throat and failing is as meta as it gets
>>739173294Just because you're a bitter little faggot doesn't mean 2077 was bad
>>739167467>>Probably gonna get some forced slop romance with an ugly girlwhat if they subvert your expectations and its a hunky black guy?
>>739191813if only, but we all know where the stunbrave white karens are steering it
I hated all the Ciri parts in 3, and whenever she came up I zoned out.
>>739167467>UE5 so shit performance is expectedThis shit is so unreal holy fuck, they had red engine from CP2077 that can produce amazing level of details but instead they decided to use ueslop5.
>>739193803Because all the new "talent" in their studio can use UE5. You can probably guess where this is going
>>739162812>Skjall>AstridWhy are all these names Nordic? I thought this was a Polish game.
>>739194150>bros why come the fantasy setting with several fictional cultures isn't all a 1:1 copy of real-world Poland???Nigger.
>>739178123Women can't fuck each other
>>739193803It sucks but it's not hard to understand why.You need to retain and pay a sizable sum to a lot of senior engineers to make use of an in-house engine.H1B jeets that skimmed through some shitty UE tutorials though are very cheap in comparison.
>>739172146>Its not the game's faultNo, its the world's fault and the politics that have stemmed from faggots and women. When they start making games about hope for the future again, where all the browns have been enslaved and all the women are eye candy, and we return to a fantasy vision of the future or the past where things feel good instead of as increasingly hopeless and shitty as they do in real life, I'll buy them. Not before.
you just know they'll nerf her tits and ass and make all the outfits bulky so you can't enjoy any eyecandy
>>739174550It's funny, I know multiple people who went hating on the Keanu role. Only to end up loving Johnny's character by the end.
>>739172120The story in Horizon is actually quite interesting.
>>739170939Wasn't the elves in the wild hunt supposed to be these big bad OP dimension hopping "totally not dark elves from W40k raiding and taking slaves for god knows what"?And she just one shots them like they're starting area peasants with pitchforks and buckets for helms?
>>739196297well yeah the main plot was already dragging on too long, they needed to wrap it up
>>739195726>nerf her titsCiri is flat in W3.
>>739162812because TW3 was Girl's First RPG while not even being an RPGthey're only shitting this out for more netflix content
>>739175664>generic Polish completely serious, edgelord, mudcore, dark fantasy listed alongside quirk chungus marvelslop?
>>739197082Characters aren't supposed to survive long enough to level up to level 2.
>>739175664nigga you can hate BG3 for many things, the bearsex, the westoid fugly characters, but story trying too hard? You can spacebar through basically every story moment, never interact with your companions, murder hobo through the entire game. Its basically a dnd sandbox now with mods
>>739164412THIS GAME ISN'T MADE FOR YOU, FUCK YOU, WE HATE YOU>Ok>NOOOOOO YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BUY IT AND HATE IT WTF
>>739194150Because for lazy fantasy writers that want gruffy girl-bosses the go to is always "fantasy vikings" even though IRL viking culture never had female warriors and the gender roles were pretty similar to the rest of the worlds culture. I.e. Women being close to the farmstead at all times, in charge of stitching and maintaining clothes and equipment, making food and taking care of the kids etc. To this day they have yet to find a single female warrior on any excavation site, some have been found with weapons but skeletal analysis reveals they don't have the signature wear and tear of someone that fought regularly enough to be called a warrior.So tired of fantasy Scandinavia always being reduced to "drunk & dumb bearded men and ultra-competent grumpy hercules women".
Who is the top cuckold in /v/?
>>739197634Used to be anthony burch but that guy got cucked out of the throne ages ago, entire world gone mad.
>>739162812I played Cyberpunk and even worse, the DEI infested DLC
>>739162812TW3 was already simplified, normalfag, console-coded trash so who gives a fuck about 4
>>739185980Well, she's a literal princess, some girlbossing should be warranted.
>>739162812The modern industry is not capable of making something of Witcher 3's scale, that's why.Not with this economy, not with Poles demanding to be paid much more, not with CDPR being infiltrated by diversity hires with no actual talent. Incapable.And they'll be at war with Russia soon anyway
>>739162812We have zero real gameplay. Why should I be hyped?Let alone that it will take like 2 years until release.
>>739191960this coupled with the milking gloryfarm book being a besteller (or at least being in internet consciousness) will ruin any discussion about the game
>>739162812Its so far away. Everything good is so far away. Besides E33 its been a painful 2 years.
>>739163807What are you talking about. CDPR release 1 game a decade. Bethesda is like that now but they worked hard for that reputation before.
>>739172120>Cyberpunk is the sole reason I'm probably buying Witcher 4 on release>on releaseAnon I...
>>739197634I always chose Allen off Xenosaga but some Anon proved me absolutely wrong so I dont know anymore?
>>739197634Dunkey
Because it's going to be realtranny DEI extravaganza with masturbatory, preachy writing?
>>739200332If we are lucky we will get that Witcher 3 kino again.
>>739198224>And they'll be at war with Russia soon anywayI dont think going to war against fallout the country will impact game production that much.
>>739162812cyberpunk has tempered people's expectations of a CDPR game launch, and also the game is basically vaporware right now. they announced the game too early and now we're in limbo waiting for even just small nuggets of what the game will be
>>739201281The Z is for zerg rushian. A very effective low-cost attack.
Aren't these games just some euro soap opera slop full of dialog and storyshit? What kind of man is into that?
>>739201281Yeah....Ukrainians were laughing too. Not anymore
>>739162812on one hand UE and ciri instead of geralt sounds kinda lameon the other hand, modded ciri with fat jiggling tiddies
>>739201774Take that much poorer country 500km from our capital. That will teach you to be white!
>>739201881A man of taste I see.
>>739201281Poopland will fold in two weeks tops.They've got soft shifting shit in UK
>>739162812I'm not interested in witcher anymore and I don't play games with female protagonists
>>739162812I don't want to role play as a women. Sorry CDPR it's a pass from me, a straight white male.
>>739201774Drones fly, Ivans die.
>>739162812Because it's fanfiction. Ciri isn't a Witcher.It's complete nonsense. The gameplay of 3 was already mid as fuck and only carried by the story. 4's gameplay will also be mid at best and will have a forced & shit story. Not worth buying.
>suddenly the troons that wanted character creator in Crimson Desert are nowhere to be seen
>no co-op>no playable YenSell stupid elsewhere.
>>739162812nu-devs can't do anything right and now they're pandering to the jew market trying to maximize profits instead of making fun manly games so what's the point anymore
I don't play female characters
>Unreal engine>Cyberpunk happened>More than 10 years after tw3 got released>Ciri when one of the main appeal of the games was to fuck women
Give huge credit to DEI gay and black addicts
>>739208569Theres no expectation of a character creator. Black Desert had one. And you can play as a female in Crimson Desert anyway so I dont even know whats driving your incel smugness
>>739162812Witcher 3 was already really gay so expectations are understandably low
>>739162812>a lot of the core people left>collecting blue haired talent from dying or axed western RPG studiosIt's going to be absolute shit, but their marketing team will still sell it.
>>739162812>Witcher game>Female protagNobody asked for this.
>>739166948This. It's one thing to make it about a woman, which already seemed a bit forced to me when I got her "Witcher Ending" in 3, but it's another to also slot Ciri into the ESG fueled marketing slot of the whole "I SPEAK FOR ALL THE WOMEN WHO ARE FED UP WITH PATRIARCHY. RAAAHHH!" kind of vibe, which people will still deny, but is 100% what the aura of that teaser trailer is, compared to the Witcher 3 equivalent where emphasis was on the concept of being the lone cowboy style "Witcher" beheading a scumbag and taking contracts. Sure Ciri is also doing that in the teaser, but the emphasis is no longer placed on the "concept" but on the "EMOTIONS AND ANGER" surrounding it, which plays into the fact that she's being marketed as yet another Strong Empowered Female etc.
>>739163851The thousand cock stare...
Something is just off about their plan to make a whole trilogy in 6 years it usually takes that long to make a single AAA open world game nowadays. It must be small and linear like Witcher 2 or something because it just doesn't add up.
>>739163807cyberpunk is their only pseudo-RPG but even that has a lot of action-adventure elements to appeal to the witcher audience
>>739211591They've shifted into BioWare mode where they tease way too early, and then give themselves 6+ years of time to fuck around without having to worry about investors, because they already promised that "it's coming, and remember how well Witcher 3 sold!"There is no way Witcher IV won't tank relative to what its long term investment has been. They're slowly trying a rope around their neck just like BioWare did.
>>739211392ALL MEN ARE EVIL
>>739178035I don't see the problem here
I simply refuse to play any girlboss trash vidya

>>739162812>UE5 slopwhich also means absolute infestation of jeet coders since all of their OG talent left after W3 WHICH WAS CLEARLY VISIBLE WITH CP77 LAUNCH so to anyone "hyped" about this I say....good morning saar

>>739211392me when i'm schizophrenic
>>739185712Mod Geralt back in and AI voice mods to fix the dialogue so Ciri won't be back, or mod her in again as a second character who fights with you, also nude mods for Geralt too. Because you think I was going to say nude mods for Ciri, didn't you?
>>739187453One of the game company members of is a tranny and was based on female character from one of the games. Made me feel gay. lol
the people that made good games are long goneCDPR is a californian studio in Poland
>>739191960Lesbian threesome. Stunning and brave.>>739193303Kind of ruined for me that she did not go naked in that scene with the other girls.

>>739174550keanu is the only part of the game with any kind of effort put into itc2077 can't stand on its own two legs at all and has no memorable moments that aren't the game just serving as an advertisement for keanu reevesany attempt at immersion in the game's world is immediately interrupted as you're then dragged back to having him on screen front and centerit's jarring and obnoxious
I'm not interested in girlboss Ciri who's mutant for hire, in my playtrough she matured and was supposed to be Empress.
The Ciri sections in W3 were genuinely the worst parts of the game. It's the only reason I never bothered replaying it for the DLCs
>>739175664There are 2 amazing games on that list.
