Overview: | This talk, presented by Cinematic Designers from CD PROJEKT RED, describes how the narrative systems of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt were re-imagined to support the real-time, branchable first-person-perspective (FPP) reality of Cyberpunk 2077. It explains how gameplay and narrative were merged to create a seamless, player-driven experience in order to turn the player into another actor within the scene, providing tools for action-driven expression while delivering emotional, gut-punching stories. It also covers how this high-level concept was turned into a toolset for designers and how that toolset was used to drive the look, feel, and direction of the entire interactive experience. |
