Also, the Witcher storyline was pretty well wrapped up after 3.
I’m not sure if it’s been confirmed if Geralt is even in this game, much less the protagonist. CDPR said the game is going to be part of a new AAA trilogy and that apparently it will feature a new School of the Lynx. I don’t have more info than that, but there’s hints they may be starting a completely new arc with new characters/protagonist.
I agree CDPR fumbled 2077’s launch, but 2077 is pretty great now. I also think CDPR felt thoroughly chastised and they seem to have learned from that launch. Witcher 3 was one of the greatest RPG’s period IMO, especially open-world. I’m not going to pre-order without good reason (primarily because I almost never ever do), but I’ve still got goodwill in the tank and I’m looking forward to seeing the game develop.
No I get the feeling that Geralt won’t be, it’s described as a new trilogy. However that doesn’t really fill me with hope based on the general shifting of attitudes from management at CDPR. Also, with previous Witcher games they had a story to develop from, I’m not confident they can build as good of a story from scratch by themselves.
I really do need to replay Cyberpunk, and maybe even buy the expansion. I was certainly disappointed that my preorder didn’t come with the expansion, like all the Witcher games did, else I probably would have replayed already. However ultimately my problems with the game were less about the bugs and such and more about the lack of content fleshing out the world, and the lack of consequences for actions - I don’t think that’s changed very much through all the patches.
Witcher 3 was great because it felt like a full world, Cyberpunk is closer to Just Cause, a city where you complete somewhat repetitive missions. Cyberpunk is much better than Just Cause, but it didn’t come close to living up to Witcher 3.
