Under a competent, native English speaking writer, this could be good. But Polacks just cannot into good writing. We already saw that in Witcher 2. Totally bland and soulless writing.

My guess: Having no profile pic nets you 25 Kodecks Kool Points or something. If making numbers go up requires removing the picture, away it goes. It was an obvious mondblutian optimization
(but yeah, bring back that Celtic Tales avatar).
Stanislaw Lem's mind-uploaded entity, stored on floppy-disk in CDP office, will help with writing this time around.
It rests with dignity in the monocled gallery of gentlemen portraits, awaiting the day this abominable untermensch decline of "custom avatars" is finally purged with fire.
This is especially helpful since http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/data/avatars/* is happily adblocked from day one, saving me from the eye-splattering idiocy and raving faggotry most of the avatars must be sporting by now.

Actually, it was introduced weeks after the forum went up. Meanwhile, I decided to boycott the custom avatars from day 1.
Besides, I don't need achievements, the only numbers going up that matter are the numbers that matter. It's not like these 25 points would give me any plusses to verbally grinding storyfags, all those skills are already maxed.
Most certainly. As soon as the gallery is back in and the custom avatars are out.

I'm intrigued. Just to remind them what made this genre awesome.
Is it possible to look at an image of Blade Runner and not immediately have Vangelis start playing in your head?

I have to say this news really took me by surprise in a positive way.
Cyberpunk is an awesome PnP system. Tarn Adams of Dwarf Fortress fame cites it as an inspiration, especially for the way it handled damage (no hitpoints).
The artstyle being '80ies is an excellent thing, since the whole literary subgenre was at its peak then.
Quite surprised by the negative comments on the 'Dex. Of course the chance is high they'll mess it up, but there is room for cautious optimism here.
Even if it's some shooter, if they nail the feeling right, it's going to be enjoyable.
This shit is awesome. WEAPONS * ARMOUR * ELECTRONICS * FASHION * VEHICLES * CHIPS

At least you know they're not going to be selling DLC clothes. You can say what you want about the gameplay in the Witcher games, but CD Projekt Red have got two things right that so many other companies are, in my opinion, failing miserably at: free post-production DLC/updates and no DRM and that is why they're likely to continue getting my money.
Well I can't edit the first post so:

So witcher 3 is the one slotted for 2015 on their release roadmap?

I watched the announcement live today in an official livestream. I can't believe as a gaming enthusiast that one day in my life I would learn about an announcement for a new game from a press conference I watched live. It's like I was movie fan hearing about a new movie from my favorite studio.

sounds awesome dudans
how does this cyberpunk PnP compare to stuff like dungeons and dragons, vampire the masquerade, mage the ascension etc etc?

I haven't played Cyberpunk, but I remember reading lots about it in Magia i Miecz back in the day (a potato pnp mag, really good and, unfortunately, extinct for a long time now). If it's more like Twitcher 1 than Twitcher 2, I'll be happy

Most importantly, it makes an effort to have lethal, more realistic combat, and has a superior damage system. There are no hitpoints, damage is localized and one shot can kill even experienced characters.

i'm reading through the rulebook, and the first concept it lists is 'style over substance', normally clothes dont matter in an adventure, but in this one it does. do i get to buy a house in this game too?
the styling sucks too, its supposed to be about fashion yet theres no dice roll results for tracksuit pants and sock and thongs?

Well, coming from CD Projekt the gameplay part will undoubtedly be shit, but I am not entirely opposed to seeing digitized boobies.

They better implement jiggle-tits and jiggle-ass tech, or else it will be Next Gen in name only!
You sure he did't mean for you to donate for Shadowrun Returns instead ?
For those interested. The art that was showed (the guy with the mohawk) was a GIANT hint that this was Cyberpunk 2020. I just checked the handbook. The guy (only with normal hair) was on one of the pages, exactly in the same pose and background.
