Also The witche character can be s many things ona moral scale. The only thing that emaisn the same is pesonalty BUT you have a choice ofmaking him more brooding or upbeat, plus even when you don't have much of a choice the development is well written that is almost better, Besides, in Inquisition the DOMNANT personality remains and the arc isn't as defined. If it is then its due to a few select choices (like the ones that tell you this will happen if you do this and thagt will happen if you do that. hen the war table decisions early on and then a few baely felt consequences later. You develop a character in a much more interesting way in the Wticher especially when there are two MAIN conflicts and the choice to completely ignore one or the other and plenty of adventures (if its anything like witcher 2 which couldn't have open world large scale epic adventures there was so much for the 4 open hubs you could explore and create your own stories without the main quest. One quest has you solving the mystery of a haunted burned down asylum and then letes you either kill the perpetrators by simply swnging your sword, or leading them to a wraith who then takes their souls to hell or taking them in for justice....and meeting a character you'd never see, opening an expanded questline in the main quest to go even further and it goes on and on like a ball of twine unraveling. In DAi you know you'll confront corypheus and the ultimate badguy in the end and there isn't much choice morality wise just belief or your reason for doing the things you had no real choice but to do. In the witcher the main quest is like 4 plotlines that can be jumped back and forth to and from or staying on one track. Either way you get an ending that shows you a different world state and in W3 you get to play in that wold state.

The Witcher 3 is an original story using lore from the books but its not an adaptation. The games include quests that are based on moments in the books but the Witcher 3 is al original and the writer of the books helps collaborate but he int writing it. He's more of a mediator there for consistency.

As was the case for BaK. However whilst W1 used chapters to split the action by area and story dynamic, I doubt if W3 will do the same due to its more open-world construct. Having a fixed character often makes the game have more of a 'novel' appearance, but for some people it takes away the sense of self-insertion they want from an RPG. I like both, it's just a shame CDPR have gone for mechanics that mean I couldn't play W2 for very long and won't buy W3.

Yes. Shepard too, but they get a pass because players aren't forced to play as a straight white male, which is the clincher for a lot of people.

 

Geralt is actually most Bioware fan's wet dream. He stands against injustice, racism and bigotry of all kinds. He defends the poor and powerless, helps those without privilege. He has a razor sharp wit and a dry sense of humour (even if the VA isn't the best at getting it across because the delivery is so deadpan.) If he was a companion in a Bioware game he'd be one of their most beloved characters. The fact that he's a straight guy that likes having sex with women overshadows all of the positive qualities both he and TW games have for a lot of people though.

 

Also its not as if Geralt won't become your Geralt, you can decide if he sleeps round a lot, the relationship with Triss, etc. Weather you agree with the Ideals of  Saskia, do you take justice into your own hands, seek vengeance? DO you help anyone in need without certainty of payment, or as a witcher is it strictly money?

 

I like Geralt, but moreso CDproject red allowed him to be my Geralt.

@Nefla:  I am being totally serious here... are you being truthful when you suggest that it's realistic to daily walk up to random strangers and start asking questions about their history?  Do you do that daily to large groups of strangers wherever you go? 

 

I will not believe you get universally positive responses from these strangers no matter what you insist - but I'm curious if you actually try this and think this is how most people act.
