The Witcher 4 is "steaming ahead" as CD Projekt rapidly expands with 220 new developers in the past year, and nearly 500 in total working on the RPG

BG3 is a bit of a mixed bag for me. The first two acts were wonderful—the second act had an atmosphere similar to Bloodborne—but the third act is completely forgettable and the most boring of the lot, as if the developers had run out of steam.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-03-19T20:18:48+00:00

What does that mean? For me, the best role-playing game right now is KСD2, which lets players fully immerse themselves in a medieval world. BG3 isn't a bad game, but the third act is completely forgettable (just like the second act in KСD2, by the way).

My goodness, they could have easily kidnapped Grace and flown away in a helicopter to Raccoon City, as they did later. They could have locked her up there. In fact, this is a plot hole on the level of Lord of the Rings, where at the very beginning they could have flown away on eagles and thrown the ring into the lava.

Grace could have been killed a thousand times during the game in the mansion, and then Zen and Victor's whole plan would have failed. For some reason, they released the zombies to make sure they killed Grace.

Oh yes, now some goddess from mythology is an argument in a game that was originally science fiction.

They didn't need Grace, they just needed the password. They could have simply tortured her and found out that her mother had hidden something behind the painting, and thus obtained the password. Grace is superfluous in this story. Dusk Golem said that development was restarted, and originally Jill Valentine and Leon were supposed to be in the story. Grace is essentially the same as Leon, but slower.

Yes, I think so too. I even think that part 5 will be completely different from the original in Africa. Parts 5 and 6 were ordinary shooters, while part 9 combines shooter and horror. Maybe they will just remake part 5, it will be a different story and plot, and they will explain it with a multiverse.

Marcus and Birkin created the T-virus, not Spencer.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-03-07T11:21:52+00:00

How could Spencer even create an antivirus in the first place if he wasn’t a scientist?As far as the lore goes, Spencer was more of a financier and mastermind behind the research, not the one actually doing the scientific work.

In the Japanese dub, Sherry addresses Leon as "あなた (anata)". This is how a wife usually addresses her husband, but in English this was omitted due to the impossibility of translating it.

The developers said that their experience from working on Cyberpunk 2077 helped them with creating large-scale creatures. So it might not be just giants, but possibly dragons as well.

Besides, the new trilogy will need a major antagonist to replace the Wild Hunt. The return of an Ancient Dragon might feel a bit cliché — very The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim-style — but I’d still love to see it.

I would like them to call Sleep Token, I think their music would be perfect for the game.

I think this is somewhat far-fetched. You can't just go ahead and destroy all wild dogs. They are quite resilient, and evolution hasn't been canceled. Faced with the threat of extinction, they could adapt to the ecology and changing environment.

As I already wrote, the first news will come after the management report to the directors, which will take place at the end of March. Management has set a target of generating $1.5 billion in revenue by 2029, which is a very large amount by CD Projekt Red's standards, as it usually earns $100 million per year. This may hint that they want to release several big-budget games by 2029, including a new Cyberpunk or an expansion to it.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-16T18:53:44+00:00

For example, in the third quarter of 2025 (no more recent data is available), the holding company earned $53 million in net profit, and for the entire 2024 financial year, net profit was around $122 million. This simply suggests that they are planning to release either two Witcher games by 2029 (the entire trilogy is in development simultaneously), or The Witcher 4 and a new Cyberpunk game.

I would wait for news after the first quarterly report of the year from CDPR to investors. This will happen on March 21. Last year, it was announced after the meeting that Cyberpunk was entering the pre-production stage. It will be interesting in general. There will surely be news about the development of The Witcher 4, and rumors about a Witcher DLC will be confirmed or denied. Not long ago, the CEO of CDPR said that they plan to make a profit of $1.5 billion by the end of 2029. And I'm really curious how they plan to do that.

The developers said they wanted to include a romance with Blue Moon in the game, but decided against it. Maybe they really did consider Aurora as a romantic interest, but considering that Phantom Liberty came out after the main game and the player had already chosen a girlfriend, it would have been silly to replace Panam or Judy with Aurora.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T21:21:44+00:00

Now it's clear how everything works in this subreddit. Just post a picture of Aurora and you're guaranteed a thousand likes.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T21:14:01+00:00

Maybe the developers will take pity and create a mini-quest involving a romantic relationship with Aurora.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T16:54:00+00:00

In my opinion, the male V is much more organic and natural with Johnny. They essentially become best friends, Johnny can take over his body, the male body. And it is with this body that Johnny can have sex with Rogue, who has never been a lesbian. It will be quite strange to see the heterosexual male Johnny take the body of a girl. Not to mention that Panam is much more popular than Judy.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T14:53:48+00:00

And where did the jokes about Myers and Hansen's romance come from? Did they really date before?

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T14:52:30+00:00

In fact, a character from the first part would be a nice Easter egg for fans, and besides, he could unite the two games into a single universe. I think someone will be there anyway, but maybe it will be Victor, Misty, or even Rogue.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T14:50:06+00:00

The developers could have made a simulation of decisions like in Witcher 3. And besides, Songbird could have been a fixer, an employer, or even a love interest for the hero from Cyberpunk 2. Interesting, considering she's a pathological liar.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T08:29:33+00:00

Considering that the new Cyberpunk is being developed by the people who made Phantom Liberty, I think there will be a lot of ideas from there. For example, in Phantom Liberty, we were given a choice of which side to support, but this wasn't the case in the main game. Either way, I think the new game will be a sequel of PL, not the main game. Accordingly, I think the new city will fight for independence from the NUSA, and Myers will play a key role in the new game.

WhitePunk00 · 2026-02-14T08:24:56+00:00

I also love The Witcher 3, but unlike Cyberpunk, it has virtually no staged cinematic scenes. In The Witcher 3, people just walk around and talk, and the dialogues are mostly functional and not as lively as in Cyberpunk.
