CDPR Admits to Gameplay Flaws in

The Witcher 3, while critically acclaimed, wasn't without its flaws. Many fans felt the combat system needed significant improvement.

In a recent interview, Witcher 4's game director, Sebastian Kalemba, acknowledged this, highlighting gameplay and monster hunting as key areas demanding substantial upgrades. He stated directly: "We want to improve the gameplay and the monster hunting experience."

Kalemba emphasized that the Witcher 4 trailer aims to showcase the enhanced weight and impact of monster battles, focusing on improved choreography and emotional intensity.

Witcher 4 promises a major combat overhaul. Reassuringly, CD Projekt Red (CDPR) recognizes the shortcomings of previous Witcher games' combat and plans to address them comprehensively. These improvements will likely carry over to future installments, especially given Ciri's central role in the upcoming trilogy.

Interestingly, the developers also plan to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. In Witcher 3, the "Ashen Marriage" quest, originally intended for Novigrad, saw Geralt assisting with preparations—clearing monsters, acquiring alcohol, and choosing a wedding gift for Triss and her intended, Castello.
