Original Witcher dev says remaking it as an open world won’t be easy: ‘As a player, I might be happy about that, but as a designer, I’m starting to get gray’

The Witcher remake, currently in development at Fool's Theory, aims to transform the original 2007 game into an open-world RPG, a significant shift from its linear gameplay. Designer Artur Ganszyniec noted that this transition requires expanding the game environment and integrating new content with existing elements. The open-world format allows players to approach quests and challenges non-linearly, which complicates design considerations. Ganszyniec expressed both excitement and concern about balancing player freedom with narrative coherence. The development process is complex, reflecting the challenges of reworking the game's fundamental nature.

May’s big Rust update adds new, rare workbench upgrades, if you can find them

The latest update for Rust, titled "Upgrade Hard, Raid Harder," introduces mortars to combat rooftop camping and features nine rare workbench upgrades that enhance gameplay. Players can apply these upgrades from the workbench inventory, and they are not mutually exclusive. Mortars function similarly to cannons and require players to gauge distance and angle without a visual guide, with two types of shells available. Tin can alarms have been improved to accommodate various warning signals, and the vending machine interface has been redesigned for easier use. Loot distribution in the Deep Sea area has been adjusted, and drag has increased for boats with flat bows. Third-person grenade-throwing animations have been refined, and the computer station now requires power. New achievements related to the Naval update and Deep Sea zone have been added, and a Discord shop has been launched, offering a 20% discount on DLC. Facepunch is upgrading to Unity 6, which will discontinue support for Windows 8 and require server hosts to upgrade to Windows Server 2019.
