The Witcher 4 romances will be "super compelling and very meaningful"

Sebastian Kalemba: "It's a part of the way we make games. It is a part of human nature. It's a very normal thing. "

There have always been plenty of opportunities for more amorous escapades in The Witcher series, but they've often been very detached from the game, rather short-lived and not very deep. CD Projekt Red apparently wants to change this for The Witcher 4.

In a Gamespot interview, the game's creator Sebastian Kalemba explains that dating will be more meaningful in The Witcher 4:

"It's a part of the way we make games. It is a part of human nature. It's a very normal thing. Without that I think we wouldn't be able to tell the very full story.

We want to pay a lot of attention to it and make it super compelling and very meaningful. So it's not just to make a romance for the sake of making a romance. That's not the CDPR way."

What do you think about this new focus on romances?
