So, next year will be year of The Witcher III : Wild Hunt.

Quote

Our March cover story gives a world-exclusive peek into the next generation of RPGs with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. This standalone sequel takes the fascinating stories and characters, non-linear plotlines, and difficult decisions that the franchise is known for and puts them all in an open world 30 times larger than the previous game – an enormous setting even larger than Skyrim's vast expanse, made possible with the new REDengine 3 technology that developer CD Projekt RED is debuting with the game. Our huge feature dives into everything The Witcher 3 has to offer, and it's a lot: the detective work that precedes deadly combat when monster hunting, storylines that weave and twist together between political intrigue and otherworldly menaces, and a tired hero who wants to set things right but can't put down his swords until his conscience allows – if it ever does.

I should really get around to playing this series. Kinda sad because a bought them a while ago.

In related news there should be a CDP conference today, I think.

I was expecting some in-game footage but the video was great without it. I'm definitely looking forward to it. I still haven't beat The Witcher 2 yet. It's the hardest games I've ever played.

Bit worried they might not be able to pull both The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 off at the same time either way both games are insta buys for me CDProjekt Red

Very excited for this, and eagerly awaiting this month's Game Informer for more info on it.

Still haven't been arsed to kill the kraken thingy. Can't find the last Neeker(?) nest. Thought the engine was crap, though probably won't be able to say that about 3.

I'll probably get 3 cause I loved 1, but 2 is a big meh.

If I good remember Cyberpunk 2077 is planned for 2015.

BTW> They say that word in WIII will be free for explore and 20% bigger than in Skyrim, sounds tasty for me, looking forward, hope my PC will meet requirements...

Coke Zero. At about minute and a half.

Also, awesome folks. Twitcher is a kind of character I can't identify with, so the first game I didn't dig. Twitcher 2, however, plays better, looks better (than Shitrim, I might add) and on the whole is a master class example how a game must be supported after the release.

This is gonna be the tits.

Free world as the witcher will be awesome, plenty of missions and game play hours, happily give these guys my money right now. Looking forward to 2014 but disappointed that this will end Geralts trilogy.

Yeah, they say there is +100 h gaming Awesome.

About end of trilogy, true, but not end of Gerald World, possible that we will see new story. Game is based on book saga (5 parts + 3 volumes with short Gerald stories). So I think there is quite a lot material for future games

Just in case anyone thinks the graphics aren't really next gen, it's using The Witcher 2's renderer (REDengine 2). What the screenshots are showing isn't REDengine 3.
