Interview The Witcher interview at the Codex

[TalesfromtheCrypt]

But do you realy believe this is what is going to hapen in the witcher? Looking at recent Bioware games im not very confident about that. They may have good ideas but they still have Bioware at their backs demanding a game that sells and paying their salaries. Even so Fallout had this moral ambiguity and multi-solution aproach to quests in every city and almost every quest. Im not very confident to what level will this be implemented in the witcher.

Well that remains to be seen, and we can only definatly say when the game is released.
All I said is based on their answers in the interview, if what they say is true and will work out in the finish game, I don't know. I hope so.

And I think they only licensed the engine from BioWare, they are not affiliated with them in any way.

Correct.

I thought Bioware was originally going to help with some of the production or publishing? It may have changed by now, but Bio certainly promoted The Witcher early on, including giving the game some space at E3 or another trade show.

Maybe they just wanted to pimp their engine.

Anyway, I obviously take CDProjekt's word for it. :wink:

Apparently there is The Witcher Week going on at the IGN. I have seen a new "making of" video just now and it looks good, especially in the end.

 

[Cammaris]

More stuff from Witcher will come this week.

 

[Bossman]

The fourth installment of the "Making of" series.

One thing's for sure, the fights are going to look pretty good

BIO has nothing to do with The Witcher outside of licensing the engine, and and a little bit of hype they gave it a few years ago. LOL

They shouldn't be blamed or congratulated on how the game eventually turns out. Much like it be silly for people to praise (or bash) the poor company who licensed the engine BIO is using for Mass Effect either.
