The Witcher 4 with Wild Hunt interface. One fan comically edited RPG's trailer
Darkness, epicness, and dancing Geralt. Fans of the Witcher saga did a great job, as usual.
CD Projekt RED has started the promotion of the new Witcher with a bang. Darkness, evil, and suffering are always a good recipe for a heavy, emotional trailer that will stay with us for a long time. However, it appears that after a week of contemplating the direction of the iconic series, fans needed a breather, leading to the creation of a delightful parody of the trailer for the fourth installment.
Shall we play Gwent?
In the video, a fan decided to combine the most characteristic design solutions known from the Wild Hunt with the cinematic quality of the new trailer. Thus, Ciri drops by a village party, and next to her are three dialogue options and the time left to make a decision. She chooses the least diplomatic option, and the quest is officially accepted.
The most beautiful moment of this fan fantasy, however, is when the dancing master of ceremonies Geralt emerges from the forest. When the time comes to confront the monster, Ciri reaches for the indispensable bestiary (know your enemy!). We also have a map of locations, the entire enemy's health bar, and the quest itself is called A Monster's Prayer. The character's own musical theme accompanies her into battle.
However, what would a classic RPG be without a sip of elixir at the right moment? With the help of witcher potions, Ciri defeats the monster and then goes back to the village to claim her reward. However, she comes across a sad scene - the villagers are in despair, and the would-be victim of the monster has become a victim in the literal sense. So what is Ciri doing?
Invites the grieving father to play Gwent! For without the Gwent, there is no Witcher - and the fans know this.
There is still plenty of time left until the game's release, but the speculation about what the game will look like is already bringing a lot of joy to the players. Fans are wondering what the user interface will look like, what color scheme it will have, and whether there will be room for a game of Gwent. The meme potential definitely exists, and that's always a good sign.
