We caught up with the executive producer on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt at E3 to learn more about what CD Projekt Red were showing at this year's show, the nature of the game and Geralt's role.
"How do you do a 5 minute demo of a hundred hour game. It's just crazy," says executive producer John Mamais. "So the Griffin thing [demo at Microsoft's press conference] was a hard thing to pull off. But it made sense to do a monster hunting quest for that."
One of the highlights of the extended E3 demonstration behind closed doors was a brief tour of Novigrad - the largest town in the game.
"There's going to be some politics going on," says Mamais of Novigrad. "Some witch hunting stuff happening there. There's going to be some dungeons that you have to go down into and explore. And that's really all I want to talk about right now."
