CD Projekt Red: Armoede in The Witcher 3 maakt trouw aan de boeken
MULTIPLATFORM - In tegenstelling tot menig (MMO)RPG, word je in The Witcher 3 niet zomaar stinkend rijk. In een interview van EDGE met senior developer Damien Monnier en quest-designer Pawel Sasko, wordt duidelijk waarom Geralt zo hard moet werken voor zijn centen. Monnier legt uit: It’s very difficult! We didn’t want Geralt to be this multimillionaire that just goes around killing monsters. Ultimately, he does it for money we really wanted you to try to haggle over prices and get more, because you really need the money. Sasko vult daarop aan dat de armoede van de virtuele Geralt of Rivia voortkomt uit de “echte” Geralt: die uit de boeken van Andrzej Sapkowski. In the books, Geralt was very poor he was always struggling for money. It was one of the cool things we wanted to keep. There are a lot of funny stories about our economy. A QA tester came to us like, “I’m level ten, and I have 6,000 gold and have nothing to spend it on,” and we had to work out what happened. We’d left a door unlocked to a big villa – he’d robbed it and sold all these expensive swords. Wij zijn benieuwd naar jullie ervaringen: is het jullie al gelukt om miljonair te worden?
