This is how you introduce yourselves as game developers. Clear goals, hopes, and dreams. If the game is good we'll carry you to the top of the industry!

[@Nick-cs4oc]

I wish them the best but don’t get excited. ethical business practices aren’t exactly the most thrilling thing to investors. And gamers really only care about whether they like the game

[@dacco9414]

but no gameplay.

[@Hpvybes]

What goals did you see? 😂😂

[@Nero_PR]

Warhorse Studios, the ones behind Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 and 2 are doing just that for the second game and it is much better than the average corpo presentation done by the likes of Ubisoft, Activision, and whatnot.

[@KROKIACK]

Not really, the guy host seems like he's putting on an act, the woman strikes me as being a bit too excited as in people who get that excited know they are going to love it because they are used to that, they are usually easily pleased so I can't trust their judgement, the guys we see later both seem like wannabe viking guys so the game is probably unintentionally more aimed at 14 year olds who lack confidence so the bad guys will be unintimidating and therefore confident adults wont feel at all empowered by completing the objectives of taking them down etc., we see this time and time again, looks amazing but is ultimately forgettable, I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it, timid people don't make epic games, woke people don't make anything good, a mans story partly written by a woman, that's why they're never realistic or believable but sad guys who can't get a desirable girlfriend can relate to these "men" while also aspiring to be like them. Quite ironic how these people need what they fear.

[@jfern0927]

Technically in older/original folklore there was never mention of the sun effecting vampires. Bram Stoker kinda added it. Not killing them but just weakening them.

[@Gio_dude10]

What’s crazy is that normally I would be like “I need gameplay in order to be excited”. Nah. This cinematic actually has me hooked with this premise. Love the need what they fear line.

It SCREAMS “passion project” and that’s phenomenal! So much effort & genuine pride put into just this exhibit, I’m so excited to see more!!

[@Captdrpepper]

If interview with the vampire and witcher had a baby and it was a game. Actually pumped for this.

[@Madrock7777]

Or they made Blood and Wine which was heavily about vampires and wanted to do that but a whole game?

[@AszkalonOfVerra]

I toss a Coin to my Dawnwalker and say : *THIS* is going to be the true Witcher 4 Game. *>;-)* Mark my Words.

[@brandonb2338]

100% gonna try it because Witcher 3 was so good, and this has that same vibe to it.

[@tysonbazzell2349]

Agreed

[@jfern0927]

Just thinking of how great the story will be has me lookinh foward to this.

[@CapucineNighly]

Me: I wished there was more Blood and Wine gameplay talented Ex-devs from cdpr: "say no more"

[@CapucineNighly]

​@@jfern0927Follow their official youtube channel. They've been dropping some lore since the trailer dropped.

[@AszkalonOfVerra]

This Game is the *TRUE* Witcher 4. As CD Projekt has hired *"modern Audience Activist Devs".* The competent, capable Developers of *Witcher III* instead founded Rebel Wolves 2 Years ago or so. The official Witcher 4 will meet the same fate as *Dragqueen Age the Failguard* from Dragon Age. 😂🤣😂😅

[@jordanfan8222]

I was freaking out at 10:00 because I thought that someone animated instruments accurately for the first time ever, but it turned out to just be real people

[@paladinsrage4646]

What’s crazy is you could confuse the trailer with real life it looks that good 😭 I really hope the gameplay looks like this too

[@vapesnob7603]

I thought it was cgi at first too bc they swooped past some architecture, then went to the ppl playing. Cross joked on ppl in chat but I was fooled too.

[@dredgenyor1674]

you sound slightly disappointed 😂😂

I think the ex-devs also took along cdpr's music team at this point.

Me, too. And look how i look now after dying from Boredom. lol

[@dubya_tee_eff]

I am afraid to go all in on a game based on a cinematic trailer. But it does look awesome, I've been wanting a game like this. An open-world vampire game.

[@kyuuketsukiish]

That's what I love about polish people, even with small group they can create masterpiece. They are super creative and passionate about their products. Can't wait to see what they cooked there.

[@kerosenoKeroseno-f5d]

that the the witcher 2 and 3 devs that left CDPR called his new studio "rebel wolves" is so funny

[@jesseritchie9282]

It's awesome honestly

[@_Chaosnight_]

Yes but they didn't leave for the reasons many people think, they left because they wanted to do their own thing, try out something completely new, experiment Something that is kinda hard to do in a Studio with established IP's and directions that they have been using for the last 20 years Thats like some guy trying to convince Todd Horward to not make largescale RPG's or Miyazaki to step away from the Souls formula The people at Rebel Wolves want to take a new spin on thing's which they couldn't at CDPR, so they left to make their own thing's, there is no bad blood or anything like that, just creative liberties and differences

[@kerosenoKeroseno-f5d]

[@_Chaosnight_]

@@kerosenoKeroseno-f5d True, good for them, everyone has the right to follow their dreams and they should, im happy for them and hope they can make good game's Just wanted to make clear what is going on because i have seen alot of misinformation about this from the "anti woke" crowd, claiming that they left CDPR because of DEI and what not, like they do know who the Director is right? What political views he has and stuff?

[@kerosenoKeroseno-f5d]

@ i´m not american i cant care less about the stupid "cultural war" "DEI policies" that american left imported arround the world unless affect the final quality of the products i want to buy or affect security as example on Europe the issue is the different physical tests for women that are clearly less demanding than for men and now you see female police officers who have a physique with which they cannot even reduce a 14-year-old child or firefighters who cannot carry their equipment + a person and that it's a danger not just for the people they have to help-save for their teamates too and now think like me that i never voted right on my life is being "far right" i believe on meritocracy and equality not egalitarianism on the video the lead developer explains his reasons to make a new studio everyone who cares about hear and not push their own agenda understanded him

[@CapucineNighly]

This is the first time in a long time, I feel like I'll buy every delux version they'll throw in the game, a physical copy of it. Also y'all follow their official youtube channel. They've been dropping some character intro on a daily. If people are wondering why these group of vampires seems like they're from different countries... Ya.. definitely the channel is dropping some info on it. Today they release the leader of the vampires... Very interesting.

[@ReturnToNothingness32147]

Rebel Wolves really did an incredible job on their presentation👏🏽

[@jonathanhouck2637]

It’s not just one director from the Witcher 3 it’s a lot of higher ups who were also involved in that game which is a top ten game of all time imo

[@2117turbo]

It's been a long time since I've had this much hype from an announcement cinematic. I'm excited for more.

[@Sobergamer61]

Cross, take a look at “Exodus” It’s scary amazing looking. Like too good to be true type of shit. Also THIS game looks so good. ❤just want to point out the fantastic voice acting. I’m so on board with this one. This game is going to break my heart…I’m scared 😂

[@CapucineNighly]

Also made by the ex-devs of a big company. Aka ex-Bioware devs. Even my fav sci-fi writer is there. :o Game looks amazing and I'm also looking forward to it.

Why? Don't say you are part of the "anti Woke and DEI" crowd Because i have some bad new for you about the Director then

Oh god please don't fuck this up

[@nocontender6409]

@@_Chaosnight_ ​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠ My guy forced inclusion is bad, forced exclusion is bad. ham-fisted DEI is bad, realistic diversity based on the context of the project is good. Realism/Fantasy is supposed to be a spectrum of preference chosen by the developer of a project and illuminates the coherence of the art, not the political leanings of the creators. The game isn't even out yet, but if this company is going to try to value the creatives over the corpos it seems alright. "Just make good games." I'm excited. If it doesn't go well, it doesn't go well. This isn't fence sitting, it's truth. Stop white-knuckling your politics and filtering everything you consume through that lens.

[@_Chaosnight_]

@@nocontender6409 Tell that to those guys who complain about "DEI and Woke" all the time because things such a people of colour or characters with non-straight sexual orientations existing and women having lead rolls in games The Director of this game, the same guy who made the Witcher 3 is a left leaning gay dude, so by their definition this game should be an automatic failure and the Witcher 3 was a "Woke" game because a gay person worked on it Im not the one complaining about these simple thing's and dragging politics into this, these people are

[@josbot5070]

This presentation was awesome. They are in a game like setting in a old castle giving you a taste of the in game music. The next shot they are in the woods just outside the castle walls again in an in game setting in real life....The urgency or time is just like Persona games.

[@justicebrown1077]

Helps the music too, a lot of historic chapels were constructed in a way to improve acoustics for choirs and stringed instruments. So form and function!

[@jonbetts3619]

can't lie, this looks absolutely wild! wow dude, I'm totally invested

I can't give a single crap about anything these days until I'm shown a decent cut of some gameplay, I hope for the best but until then I suggest everyone to temper their expectations heavily. At worst you're a little dissapointed but it is what it is, plenty more games out there.

[@latinavenger6660]

That was a cool cup you were drinking out of. What kind is it?

[@SavageJoe1775]

Please DON'T START WITH ANDROMEDA! 😭 It is made in the context of the previous games and will taint your perspective imo

[@Sock66]

I love a good cellist

[@Venomized9]

The song that they played is from game of thrones

[@W1lly.W]

For sure this is gonna be sick

[@savagewraith]

I think it would be cooler if the MC was actually a dormant Lycanthrope, not a vampire, and that's why the main vampire in the cinematic sort of had a knee-jerk reaction to the MC's eyes and face. Not sure I like the whole 30 days thing. That means there will be no seasons and the game must all work out within 15 moon cycles, and depending how long day and night cycles last in game time, it might get a bit tedious rather than progressing.

[@amx9122]

A lot of good ideas that I’m definitely interested in mentioned but it kinda seemed sales pitch-y so I’m keeping an eye on it but taking everything with a grain of salt.

[@HLGpanda]

FYI all the leads that worked to make the past good games left CD Project Red. Same with a lot of the flops you have seen in the past few years. Naughty Dog, Rock Star, Rocksteady & etc.

[@wesleyward5901]

It looks really cool, but apparently there's an in-game deadline which is a massive turnoff for me. I just wanna kill people with cool vampire powers, not be rushed to finish the game.

[@myownaccount5058]

As long as there isn’t a weapon durability mechanic (my personal least favorite mechanic in any video game) I’m so fucking in for this

[@Sock66]

vampire open world story RPG it SLAPS

[@norcal7074]

This game ticks all the boxes for me

[@Kyle-vl6ue]

I watched the Event for this game , I will have too wait and see. My big red flag is if this game has a time limit the 30days and 30nights . The difficulty level will be the next thing . I have no interest in a Eldin Ring or Black Wuong Kong difficulty levels not looking for a chore too play

[@Vape_Juice]

The music is like as if someone mixed the Witcher 3 music with the music from the last of us.

[@frenchiemike42]

We will see, I don't like to get too enthusiastic nowadays, alot of studios failed us. Do not pre-order.

[@KAZUKEL.]

Since I'm your Polish viewer and I'm curious about this Polish premiere, I'll tell you how it looks. So CDPR needed to fire somebody from work and it fell on them (very good people you can read about them on rebel wolves website). They created rebel wolves and as you see they are creating a new game (with Slavic music, medieval times XIII-XV centuries etc.) (The music may be similar to the music from the Witcher game, but it's hard for Slavic music not to be like that) Summary of the show: The Blood of Dawnwalker will be sanbox rpg, rouge like game something like this. You will have 1 main objective, you need to rescue your family. How you will do it? It depends on you. You can explore etc. You can instantly rescue them somehow, time may run out maybe there will be other way who knows. Looking at the trailer and teaser gameplay we can expect some climbing and walking on roofs. Coen/Coan (i think. I dont remember his name 😅): He is not human and not vampire (something between). They called him dawnwalker (During the day he is a human being, so i think this is why) Why Coen can't turn into vampire fully? Cus he is allergic to silver. We need to keep an eye on the demand for blood because in other way we can kill our friends or somebody else. Coen will have "vampire powers" for fighting and exploring. Vampires: As they age, they have more teeth. To turn into a vampire, they have to drive their tooth into the victim's heart. The vampire leader in the trailer has some healing abilities (perhaps every vampire does). If you upset the leader you will have a harder time on the streets etc. We will have 30 days and 30 nights to save the family. In my opinion, we got everything we wanted from the game in the show, but will they do it well? We'll see. They are good developers, they showed it in past, they have experience sou I'm keeping my fingers crossed (Polish proverb for success)

[@KeithFoster-re5xj]

This looks genuinely good. I just need an updated version of Skyrim having a love child with this game. I want to be able to hunt the big baddie but also go build a house, get married and have/adopt a kid.

[@Alerik]

The musicians look like real people

[@Madrock7777]

There were like, I really liked making Blood and Wine. What if we allowed you to play as the vampires for a full game instead?

[@calebshort629]

Voice actor for that main vampire sounds an awful lot like Darth Malgus. Am I wrong?

[@CapucineNighly]

I really think Antony Howell voiced Brencis. Yes that's the name of the leader. Info dropped on their official KZbin. MC is Coen.

[@emeraldz2]

Timed games are even worse than timed missions, but I will give it a look.

[@saddestcat]

[@TheSioutdoors]

[@Frodo_swagginsX]

[@Stephetheon]

I don't like that they outright tell the viewers why they had that countdown. It's a really cool marketing idea, but you kind of take the air out of it if you reveal your hand before people get to figure it out for themselves. Also it sounds like the "no MTX" grift is already here.

[@leecummings2949]

I'm in. Take my money now

[@jonathanvogt4341]

Hey cross why is no one commenting on the historical significance about where these guys are talking from? In the context of this game its hugely important
