Skyrim was intended as a single player too and you could play it perfectly in single player but someone made an online mod and it really wasn't out of place. It just wouldn't kill anything to allow another person to join you when you play. I'm definitely most interested in this game because of the story. Make him a sidekick, some clumsy bastard that just hangs by the main character, maybe the same as a follower in skyrim(this is actually not a bad idea imo) where you can have them follow you or you can just drop them at an inn if you don't want them around, instead of that the follower could be replaced with your friend when they join you.Īgain, I never meant to say that they should disregard single player at all, the story should remain as it is with the focus on the main character only. You wouldn't be forced to play it that way. Originally posted by KING:I can't see the problem with it. If the game was made, or at least a version of it was made with co-op in mind then yeah, ok, but to be honest i much prefer a purely single player based game than a multiplayer gimmick when said game is all about the story and the characters, the game itself was made with single player in mind. Adding multiplayer just for the sake of it doesn't make sense, adding co-op when one character is completely irrelevant is in my opinion completely pointless. The problem is that the game was designed with Geralt as the main character, the story is about him and "no one else", the dialogues are centered on him, ect. The problem comes with the story, in order to allow multiplayer they would have to add a playable character, right? What character? what would make sense in the context? Geralt have friends but none of them would follow him everywhere, what if Geralt want to have some "fun" with Triss? how would they explain the additionnal character? and what would this character add to the story when it's all about Geralt?
Sorry for that!"Ĭyberpunk (or The Witcher 3) will be RED's first foray into multiplayer, but they seem to be quite a careful studio so fingers crossed it won't be just another tacked-on, box-checking feature.Īs we've seen nothing of Cyberpunk beyond a CGI trailer, look, here's Sigue Sigue Sputnik's cyberpunk Love Missile F1-11 music video.Originally posted by J0KER:Multiplayer/Co-Op in The Witcher 3? :rfacepalm::rfacepalm::rfacepalm: I can't see the problem with it. You can expect some information later on. "We're thinking about something," Badowski said, "but I cannot explain it now. "It will be a story-based RPG experience with amazing single-player playthroughs, but we're going to add multiplayer features," managing director Adam Badowski said of Cyberpunk to Eurogamer.Īs for The Witcher 3, multiplayer's technically only a maybe for now, but sounds likely. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt might have multiplayer too. Developer CD Projekt RED has confirmed that its cyberpunk RPG will indeed have "multiplayer features," but is awfully tight-lipped about what form they'll take. Given that in the future we'll all be jacking into cyberspace and diving darknets all the time, it seems only fitting that Cyberpunk 2077 should offer multiplayer.
