Yep. Still think is reasonable. Why? I'm paying $20 for multiple INTERACTIVE CONTENT. They're giving away APPEARANCES FOR FREE. Yes I looked through the list. Yes I saw they were offering quests as well for free and the amount of DLC is unbelievable. "When something looks too good to be true. It is." I've played Witcher and as fantastic as it is, realistically, they can only pump out "new content" at the same quality at a much slower rate then they're offering. Any new quests are not going to take you to new places or play any serious part in the story. They're going to redirect you back to old areas to kill the same mobs for a different reward. And it's not going to be rare armor that's better then you already have. In this case, they're going for quantity over quality and with the quantity stated, it's going to bite them in the ass. How stupid do they think I am in thinking that they can fool me by telling me what I want to hear and lapping it up the way you guys are? I know the development process to achieve the quality the Witcher series is known for does not allow for "True New Content Every Week" on the level that the actual game will be. Personally, this is far more insulting then Destiny has been. I will not be buying Witcher III. This is a clear blatant disrespect to the intelligence level of gamers in thinking we don't know any better in my eyes. Quantity does not quality make.

  • CDProjektRed has given all the DLC for both witchers for free. It's a business model for them, their philosophy is reward the people who buy their game. The fact that you're suspicious of such good will says a lot about the rest of the industry and nothing about CDProjektRed

  • I'm suspicious because they're making a big deal about it. If this is typical behavior then they don't need to sound off as loud as they can about it. Why suddenly make a big deal out of something you've been doing already? People know to expect it with you. You don't need to suddenly start yelling "Hey! Hey! Look what we're doing! We're different! We're not the greedy corrupt types!" Hell they even come out and say that. [quote]"As gamers, we nowadays have to hold on tight to our wallets, as surprisingly right after release, lots of tiny pieces of tempting content materialize with a steep price tag attached. Haven't we just paid a lot of cash for a brand new game?" "As CD Projekt Red, we strongly believe this is not the way it should work and, with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we have decided to do it differently,"[/quote] That last sentence is particularly troubling because it conflicts with what you just said. [quote]CDProjektRed has given all the DLC for both witchers for free. It's a business model for them, [/quote] But they state: [quote]"...we have decided to do it differently."[/quote] So now who am I supposed to believe? That just makes me even less likely to go for the "good" this is thought to be. When someone makes a drastic change to something they've typically done, it's good cause to be suspicious.

  • I think you're misinterpreting them. (They are very foreign) and they always do these press releases, this one is getting more attention because the previous 2 games were very well received. I'm a skeptic at heart myself, but CDProjektRed has always delivered up to this point so I have 0 evidence that would make me think they won't do the same here.

  • Alright so which is it? Are they just making a statement because they're so big this time around which justifies my cynical paranoia and they're lying to me and you're telling the truth? Or are you lying to me that "They've always done this" and they're truly "taking a new direction" by offering this up? Ether way I'm looking at this and I'm seeing "We're not the bad guys here like everyone else you're seeing, to prove it we'll throw in extras and we promise more "content" then even the most rabid of gamers will be hard put to chew through in less time then anyone else." It still boils down to they cannot realistically put out the same quality content in the amount they're promising and expect me to believe it will be substantial enough to satisfy me. That's what insulting about it.

  • It's option c: you're unreasonable and looking for a reason to distrust them when they have done nothing to warrant that.
