Still plagued by Gwent memes, The Witcher 3 director's new vampire RPG makes you think twice about playing mini-games while the world burns
Blood of Dawnwalker wants to retain some urgency

One of the many memes that follow The Witcher 3 around – aside from a particular bathtub – is Geralt's fondness for playing card games rather than saving the world. While the iconic RPG's director has since left 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:CD Projekt Red to form a new studio and start work on a new vampire-themed RPG called 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Blood of Dawnwalker, he's not forgotten.

"We want the time system to be part of the narrative experience, and part of the whole🌳 'both action and inaction have consequences' [approach]," he says. "It will work in interesting ways. It will definitely force you to make choices at some points, like what to do, and what to ignore, be🔴cause you will also have to choose which content you want to do, and which content you want to ignore, in order to maximize your chances of defeating the main enemy.
"But you will be able to choose between different ways to approach the problem, and all that ti𒆙es into the narrative sandbox again."

I joined GamesRadar+ in May 2022 following st💧ints at PCGamesN and PocketGamer.Biz, with some freelance for Kotaku UK, RockPaperShotgun, and VG24/7 thrown in for good measure. When I'm not running the news team on the games side, you'll find me putting News Editor duties to one side to play the hottest JRPG of 20 years ago or pillaging the depths of Final Fantasy 14 for a swanky new cloak – the more colourful, the better.
