You’re probably sick to death of me going on about The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (“Oi, stop going on about The Witcher 3,” you’re probably muttering), and you’d think I was paid by BandaiNamco Games given the amount of information I’m posting about it (I’m not, by the way, but I’m always open to the possibility of receiving mystery bags of cash in the post … joking) but a 35-minute game play video has been posted on The Witcher 3, and it’s left me kind of wishing I hadn’t watched it.
Not because the game looks like it won’t be any good – it looks as though it’s going to be an amazing experience – and not that I won’t enjoy it, but I can’t help but wonder whether I’ve learned a little more than I want to about things before I play the game.
Apparently the video is set several hours into the game, but part of me wonders whether just a little too much information about three witches called The Crones and the ashen-hair woman being sought by Geralt of Rivea is revealed in the video.
I’m sure, though, in a game as large as The Witcher 3 a 35-minute video is nothing, and, of course, things will change depending on the decisions you make, but I’ve decided that from tonight I’m likely going on a Witcher 3-free diet for the next few months until the game is out in February: I don’t want to spoil my enjoyment of what will no doubt be a strong contender for one of 2015’s best games.
Anyway, here’s the video: Let me know what you think in the comments section.
I think I’m going to take your advice and not watch it. =)
Is it just me or is every new game ‘open world’ these days? I don’t want to spend months running around a vast landscape – I just want a decent single-player game with a linear storyline :)
Been delayed (again)!
Yeah, I read that yesterday. Although, if it improves the game and lessens the amount of bugs then I’m all for that. Besides, it means I can sink more time into Far Cry 4 and DragonAge Inquisition, which is just amazing.
I am loving Dragon Age. It’s taken the formula of the first two games (both good but flawed in different ways) and gone all the way to 11
