The Witcher 3 and Mass Effect Andromeda thread

Well, I said the exactly opposite! The game needed polish, tons of it. But no amount of polish would make Andromeda a fundamentally better game. It's key flaws are not in animations or character design (although both hurt the game) but quest structure, roleplaying, story, writing, etc. 

It's one of the things I actually really liked about Ryder to be honest. The story and mechanics of the game fit the role of Pathfinder, it sold the fantasy to me pretty well. Whereas Shepard was just someone who knew how to shoot things very well and had a (somewhat inexplicable) charisma, so the story conspired to make that the premier skillset one would need to save the galaxy from mecha-cthulus, against all reason sometimes. 

It's also a strength of The Witcher. Since you're playing, well, a Witcher, the writers can craft their stories and mechanics around Geralt. Monster contracts that would be otherwise mundane become his job. Consumables become potions that only he and his fellows can ingest without serious side-effects. The plot of TW3 happens because Emhyr needs an expert tracker, and he knows none better than Geralt. 

There's certainly an advantage to having a set character, or at least a character with a set role in the story. But not all RPGs have to be like that; Pillars of Eternity for instance worked well with giving you the usual freedom when creating a CRPG protagonist, and adding the Watcher aspects on top of that regardless of your race, class and personality. 

Yup, as long as CDPR keeps its spirit intact, I'll pre order any future product from them. Just Gwent will sweep the floor with Hearthstone.

not even close imo.

I'll believe it when i see it. Elder Scrolls Legends is really good, and already one ups HS in pretty much everything. I can't trust your opinion as you have clearly stated your CDRP bias over and over on this forum.

Much better, more details please refer to this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/gwent/comments/5vsj6x/what_gwent_does_better_than_hearthstone_and_why/

I don't really care what you think, whom you trust and what you see.

err. Sleeping dragons is the one with the protests on the nexus and trail of hope is rescuing the moshae.

I don't really understand, there is no reason for them to do this anymore. Witcher is based on a book, so you are Geralt, make sense. But why Cyberpunk? They even showed a female character in the trailer, why can't you play as her?

Also I always consider Witcher 3 didn't  having a DLC where you play as Ciri a massive opportunity waste. Or at least go with the Batman Arkham City route where after you finish the main game, you can play as either Ciri or Geralt.

Eh... Now good game must be open world?

I don't care about Open World this is RPG, role play is more important than open world element.

And The Witcher can't compare to Mass Effecr Andromeda in this case. Because they force PC to play as Straight only (not to mention female is not available too). I wonder if Geralf is gay, stright guy will comfortable to play this series or not.

I really hope their next game (Cyberpunk) will allow me to choose my sexuality. If not, at least not force me to have sex with woman or heavily focus on love life with his girlfriend or Ex. or girl nudity.

Lmao! Love how Geralt's sexual preferences is the first point made in regard to roleplay definition (or lack thereof). Priorities, priorities..
