The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Plot is “Extremely Ambitious”, Says CD Projekt

During the course of a VG247 interview that will be released later, lead quest designer Mateusz Tomaszkiewic described The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt plot as “extremely ambitious”, and also calls it the most mature out of all the titles in the franchise. Here’s a snip:

(Geralt has regained his memory, and he’s also more mature now. He knows what he wants from life, and he’s determined to get it. In my opinion, plot of The Witcher 3 is the most mature plot in The Witcher trilogy.

(It focuses on matters most personal for Geralt, but at the same time we are still keeping complex the politics, intrigues and mature subjects like racism, that are so important for The Witcher setting.)

…

(Witcher 3 is extremely ambitious in terms of the number of characters and plots that we’re introducing,) Tomaszkiewicz continued, (but also in terms of how we want to present them. We want to tell a truly immersive and emotional story in an epic environment.

(The overarching plot will have a huge impact on the state of world as a whole, but we’re not aiming at making Geralt savior of universe this would be out of his character. As always, Geralt will get dragged into big events that he would otherwise stay out of, and influence them in his own way.)
