Ambitious The Witcher 3 restoration mod adds yet more cut dialogue to the game, including a new Yennefer romance scene and extra choices for its most famous quest

With nearly half a million words in its script and 950 speaking roles to voice them, one thing The Witcher 3 isn't short of is dialogue.

GOG's new owner says DRM makes life "more difficult" for customers, so he sees "no reason to keep it alive"

'There's a mysterious extra DLC for The Witcher 3 in the works', this bit of paper claims. 'Oh, you mean that anniversary patch which was delayed last year?' Gerry's mutant brain asks in response. 'No, seemingly not that one,' the sentient scrap replies.
