There's no way CD PROJEKT RED developed this. It must have been outsourced and it shows! I'm sorry to say Thronebreaker looks EXTREMELY MEDIOCRE. WTF!!!

I love you CDPR and I've bought all your games, but what the hell is this? After years of waiting we're getting this clunky thing? Quality looks very poor. Not buying it.

PS: my opinion is based on a new 25 min gameplay posted on youtube yesterday (9/27/2018)

Dude, this isn't their main project. From the store page:

"Experience an all new 30-hour Witcher Tale with 20 possible world end-states [...] Embark on over 75 thought-provoking side quests — one of the hallmarks of The Witcher series."

This seems to be a wonderful 'little' game for those Witcher fans that adored the story. The quest developers really get to shine here while Gwent - as a much loved mini game - is included for some gameplay. It looks well polished for a side project and at about 25€ quite cheap for 30 hours of gameplay.

If you expect a triple A title you will indeed be disappointed, but take it as what it is then you might have a wonderful time.

But this is just me who loves story-driven games.

It is developed by CD Red. The footage you watched is not the final product, as reflected in all the videos.

I would ask you to take into account the game's scope and the fact Cyberpunk 2077 is in development. It's cool you're a big fan of their work, but let's not cross the passion for entitlement, it's a slippery slope.

Hey I got a blue response! :D Hi GoG team! <3

Here's some clarification:

1. If it's really developed by CD Red, then it must be interns or new high school hires working on this. Any gamer can look at this and see it compares very closely to a cheap $1 mobile phone game.

2. The game releases in ~3 weeks, so there's not much they can do to improve it considering how under-developed it looks and how much work it still needs, so the footage I saw is pretty much what we'll get.

3. I understand that 2077 is the main focus (can't wait for it and it looks INCREDIBLY AWESOME so far!). I just love CDPR and don't want to see them release a cheap looking game and become a blemish in their record. Look at Blizzard, no blemish releases.

4. This is not entitlement, it's feedback. CDPR presented us a game that looks cheap and is asking for $30 for it, and I am simply saying "bad product, not buying" and then moving along feeling disappointed that a game I liked (GWENT) and was really looking for got this treatment.

You may be sincere, but your comments are quite disrespectful.

As for blemishes on records, we're getting into subjective territory here.

You can express disappointment and feedback, this is more than fine, but I'd invite you to review how you worded your post.

If you have still doubts, wait for the reviews is the only thing i can suggest :)

Did you realise that Thronebreaker uses the very same Witcher 2 cutscenes absolutely lovely art-direction?

With the way you are trying to be edgy on your post Ollac, this is either a bait thread or you suffer from a serious case of entitlement. :/

Any gamer? Which sort of gamer? The one who doesn't consider 2D games because "they are cheap"?

A game doesn't have to be full 3D to be worth its money. Super Giant games made products that used isometric 3/4 views, and many times used static art assets, in a less-than fluid, yet cohesively stylistic manner; and those games were well worth the proce of admission.

With The Witcher 3 cinching my all-time favorite game, CDPR has earned my respect. When I heard this game was coming up for release, I pre-purchased simply based on their reputation. I'll do likewise for 2077, and keep doing so until CDPR treats me like an open wallet (which, to date, they have never once done).

Looking forward to this title.
