The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

The author really doesn't seem terribly intelligent. He doesn't seem to understand how many sales he got because of the popularity from the games.

That said, I've heard that Polish laws are different from American laws and that he may end up winning this case.

Devils advocate, Superman bros were essentially penniless. DC never had to give them another dime over their original agreement, but did it anyway.

I completely agree he made his deal. The game COULD have bombed. The odds were on his side for that bet. He lost.

Difference is he acted like an ungrateful shit when the game did good and he realized it, instead of swallowing his pride and asking for more because he had no idea how good things would go. CDPR are awesome and somw of the nicest devs currently on the market. Witcher 3 has helped fund Poland itself by their hand. If he had acted right he could've gotten something but he basically attacked them.

Despite what he says, the games have given him something, albeit indrectly. The games have introduced the books to an entire new audience who otherwise probably never would have heard of them or bought them. I, myself, own five of his books that I never would have bought had I not loved The Witcher 3 so much.

Any news on the court case?

He looks like he decided to dress up as a half-assed Geralt for Halloween, lol. He really doesn't suit the role but we'll see I guess.

He's fine. They just need better make-up to make him more rugged. And a better wig.

Gotta say that's mighty scummy. Basically "your game's gonna be crap, I don't want your shares. Nobody's gonna want Witcher. Oh, it did well? Uh, hey, can I have some money? I'll sue if you don't gimme." I get this douche canoe created Witcher but he sold the rights. This shouldn't even be a debate.

Anyone still wondering about that dispute between CD Projekt and the Witcher author, it's been settled.

Apparently they already got mods to change your witcher 3 characters to look like their tv counterparts.

Been reading everyone has been playing the 3rd game after watching the tv show.

Yep they had more people playing on steam than they did launch day.

And yes there is already a mod for witcher 3 that adds in the "toss a coin to your witcher" song.

The DLC for the game was wayyyyyyyyyyyy better then the main story, the story wasn't bad, the climax was pretty good.

**** Yen and her "fiery" personality, she's a *****, plain and simple.
