The Witcher III: Wild Hunt Named Game Awards Game of The Year

header.jpg

Easily the most deserving of the title, Game of The Year, The Witcher 3 takes the award for 2015! Probably one of my favorite releases of this year, CD Projekt Red won multiple awards for their fantastically crafted game and couldnt be more deserving.

Let us know what you think of this decision in the comments below!

Never heard of it before this trailer, I think I'll give it a try, still I have so much to beat on Vita/PS3/PS4.
After I platinum Danganronpa and GoW 1 and Last of Us, then I'll give it a try
Cyberpunk 2013 was first-released in 1988 and practically kickstarted the whole "cyberpunk" culture, although the series is more famous for its successor, Cyberpunk 2020, released in 1990. Some background reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberpunk_2020#Cyberpunk_2013
About Cloud: this is a great fantasy :D
However I am going feelings that characters send to me at first impact, which were before they could do more easily than now. And Geralt it does not inspire me just anything, and so, even if i cant play because i dont have ps4 or capable pc, i will never play withcer 3.
So you're criticizing a game you haven't even played? That's hardly constructive. I won't get into the details of why Geralt is interesting simply because it would spoil many surprises the series has in store for readers/players, all I'm going to say is that he's one of the most interesting characters that graced our PC's and consoles this year, or in general, to be frank.

In general i think is exagerated lol. This year? Maybe... if you consider that not much we have this year (and not so good). Videogames lost their "touch" (or best to say: the game-maker lost the touch). I only follow characters that inspire me at first look, that "tell me" something only when i see them, and Geralt is one of the opposite: tell me nothing, like the 99% of new-gen characters of videogames lol

You talk about what a character tells you when you see them but your examples clearly do not say that.
Nathan Drake for example, he looks like a pretty normal guy, it's what he does and how the story goes that make things interesting.
Cloud Strife, the best you can guess about him is he is a guy that fights with his big ass sword, but that's it.
I think that before judging a character, specially when we're talking about a game with a very detailed story,
we have to play in order to have a good judgement about that character.
For example I'm gonna talk about Cloud, most my friends just hate it, they say he's one of the worst main character of games, he is the hero of the story just by occasion because Zack died and is more of an emo than anything actually good, but before saying that's true or not I'm gonna play the game to say what I really think about him

Cloud inner chaos is really well doned, and me too like Zack. This is another very great game character.
About Nathan Drake: he ispire me simpaty the first time i see him ^^ this is what i mean about normal characters: exact the same of Agent 47, look simpatic and dark. Geralt tell me nothing

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
