Thronebreaker - Witcher Tales (CDPR)

Interesting looking title coming out soon, a single player RPG game with a focus on Gwent style gameplay.

Not breaking news but couldn't see a thread on it here. Released 23rd October.

Good to see the first reply, I for one am quite looking forwards to trying this, just gotta drag myself away from AC Odyssey!

Wot, no ultra widescreen support?

Meh.

I like it but I think it would be a waste of PC to play on it

too bad it's not on the ipad, graphics, playstyle would suit it perfectly.

Tbh I'm hooked on Homecoming, haven't even touched Thronebreaker yet - so many card changes it's like being a noob all over again.

So far I've got the outline of a Discard SK deck working but needs a lot of polishing. Working on a movement ST, though that archetype is not like it used to be with 3 rows. Also interested in spell ST, but the new card interactions take some time to learn.

Looks good and picking up very positive reviews, I'll definitely grab this at some point.

Watched some streams last night and this is first game in a while that's peaked my interest, will be getting bought soon when I can put some time into it.

Only played an hour or so, but this seems very good so far. The voice acting and story somehow draws you in even though the game world is so basic. The puzzles and card combinations are very cleverly done although I did prefer more of the attacking side in the battles of gwent in tw3 compared to card stacking points in this at times perhaps. The point and click roaming with pickups is surprisingly addictive somehow even though in concept it's very dull.
