Same. And if there are romances, I want the option of being both a woman and gay. Otherwise it's a no buy for me.

 

Yeah, even though the game interests me, the fact that the game has 2 of some of the most beautiful women and i don't have any lady to romance them makes me cry tbh.

It would be a tolerable game if it weren't for spiders bigger than houses that you can't zoom out from! As it is, I played through once and I'll never touch it again.

You will be able to play as Ciri (a female character) as part of the story in the game. I believe they stated it's worth about 10-15 hours of the total game length. She will have her own talent tree and will be customizable to some degree. There is a short demo featuring said gameplay here:

I know it's not a lot but at least it's something ^_^

Long white hair. I was right. ;)

 

It's obviously going to be a matter of tastes and priorities as to what people prefer, but lack of character customisation, lack of a party and a different combat system clearly means a different experience before you even get to quest content.

I don't have much interest in the game but then again I played the former 2 and didn't like them, couldn't even finish the second one; so I'm not exactly vibrating with anticipation.

 

(and before someone asks, those games were gifted to me, I didn't buy them)

I got half way through the first and stopped for some reason. I did intend to finish it but I never have. I got the second in the Steam sale and well... I keep thinking that I might play it when I finish the first...

I slogged through the first, got halfway through the second and decided I had enough. Not going to play them again.

Couldn't get into the first myself, though I enjoyed the second. Played through a couple of times including on Dark (hardest difficulty).

Every time multiplayer gets something new, I want more single player dlc's with more Sera content, then I think about it and realize that the first one isn't even available yet for Xbox 360 and PlayStation. Makes me sigh wondering how long it will be before we get new story dlc.

My guess is July-August.

 

I'm hoping whatever SP DLC we get next features Isabela in some capacity. They went through the trouble of recreating her in the new engine for multiplayer, meaning the game already has her model and voice files now. It should take minimal effort to bring her into the actual story.

Ciri is supposed to be bisexual but I am not so sure about the game version of her (and to tell the true CDPR is not that great at handling diversity, nor female designs so...), if there is same sex romance that is the only character that I can see it happening. Also same VA as female Hawke so maybe that is a hint lol

I know about her sexuality, Triss is also bisexual as far as i know.

Very much doubt you'll romance anyone with Ciri though, since she isn't the main protag (even though i'd kill for a future game with her). :(

Let me guess, they're all bisexual but only ever sleep with guys in the game.

 

idk never played the game.

wait, Jo Wyatt is doing a voice in the game?  

 

I'll just listen to her scenes on youtube

Only Triss, Ciri won't even have a full story, she'll just appear in some parts so i doubt she'll have some kind of 'romance' in game. She did sleep with a woman in the book though.

 

I read about all these on various sites and here and i haven't read the book nor i have any interest in doing so.

Hummm Triss I am not sure but I never saw her with a woman in game(which I know does not mean much), there are some hints on the books but nothing concrete that I can tell, at least the ones I have. No, not all are bisexuals Philippa Eilhart is a lesbian and she appears on the second game, the problem is that her scenes are more for titillation and male gaze than actually representation, like I said CDPR is pretty bad at it. Hence my doubts even about Ciri.

Actually the books are a lot better when it comes to female characters and even their designs, ironic but true. Still excited to play as Geralt and Ciri, I really hope she is the main protagonist of the next game.

yes

 

At least in the games. Things play out a bit differently in the novels. We obviously don't yet know what happens in Witcher 3, but my guess is you won't be able to engage in romance as Ciri.

 

And yes, Wyatt is indeed voicing Ciri B)

Given how they established that there has been centuries of conflict between humans and Dalish, it's not that much of a stretch to accept that a Dalish who found her entire clan slaughtered and human weapons scattered among the bodies would jump to the conclusions that humans were guilty and that nothing mattered anymore other than taking vengeance on humans for what happened. It's not all that dissimilar from what happened with Zathrian, really.


Like I said: that's an explanation, not a justification.

There's a long precedent for violent criminals joining the Grey Wardens, so it works out perfectly anyway.

I think given Inq's three year cycle and abundance of content and the history of BioWare in general I'm inclined to count uninspired game design as the cause of most of its issues.

 

One of the biggest issues is that they switched to Frostbite 3. DA2 on (the then latest version of) Eclipse had gotten to the point where they had some hair animation, which is why DA2 has the best hair options of the series. Frostbite was developed as a first/third person shooter, and was never meant to support complex character details like hair, eyes, eyelids, lashes, and toes (to name a few). BioWare was forced to add all this support (and more) into FB3 for DA:I. It's a wonder we got any of what we did. Don't expect much more in the next game.

 

Okay, I don't understand this. Hair is just a mesh like any other right? If it's moving then it's got a simple animation playing on it or the engine physics is moving it about but it isn't some radically different section of the engine which handles hair magic.

 

And yes, Wyatt is indeed voicing Ciri B)

 

Oh and I was intending to not buy that game.

 

Help.

For other people. Not for me. Am I allowed to play a certain way? Can I say that that's what I do without somebody else well-actuallying me?

Geralt is like Caine except less likable, less badass, less skillful, and more white. Read the Acts of Caine instead and imagine Jo Wyatt's voice whenever you read anything Angvasse Khlaylock says.

I'm not really into the manly fighter tearing stuff up + Jo Wyatt so much as the open world monster hunting with story + Jo Wyatt, but thanks for the thought.

 

Someone has to get the story in an open world right sooner or later.

'Tis merely a point of view on how it can work, and why a justification isn't entirely necessary, in my opinion.

*runs in from the darkness*

 

I just read your fic and I wanted to let you know that I loved it. I may have also read every other part of Isileth's Story. You did a great job writing Sera. Keep up the great work.

 

Thank you!  :D  I keep meaning to do some more, the other ones in my sig.  I think as much as I like the idea of one being Isileth and Sera in the bath ( :wub:) I like the idea of the Inquisitor cooking her love a meal more interesting, and different.

I like the romance card but the second one is definitely my favorite. So cheeky! Lol. Sitting upside down on the throne does seem like something Sera would do though. I can imagine her sitting like that for a while waiting for Inky to enter the main hall and see her.

 

That second one will always be "the licky licky card" to me.

Aithne's whole clan was brutally murdered, and she can't talk to anyone about it? What the hell??

That would be the most egregious example, yes.

 

Sadly, they had completed all the VA work by the time that war table mission was finalised, so there was no chance for getting any dialogue about it.  Laidlaw said that in hindsight they should've cut the death out.
