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

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 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 :wub:

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.

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 :D 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 :D :D

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.

Thank you. It really didn't look all that special to me...I was confused. But then, screenshots rarely look all that special.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

      It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
