Many more are in transition, moving offCyberpunk 2077: Phantom Libertyand onto the Polish studios next big game.

It did exactly what I expected and its still a great game.

Those expectations go out the door when the timetable is this long.

With Cyberpunk 2077s 2020 launch in the middle, CDPRs schedule resembles Rockstars forGTA 6.

In both cases, Im wondering: where do they go from here?

Baldurs Gate 3 is one of two incredibleCRPGs that I imagine could have an impact on the next Witcher.

But many of the thoughts were less important, like speccing into being an insufferable art critic.

Though Geralt had friends and lovers, he fundamentally worked alone.

But, the more important lesson that CDPR could learn from Cyberpunk 2077 is how to handle hype.

Whatever happens, The Witcher 4 will be its own thing.

No matter how much it evolves from The Witcher 3, it wont time travel to Cyberpunks future.

I can only hope its changes bring it into the 2025 present.
