I think that a lot of people just play this kind of games and some of those like the idea but don't like the execution. So they are becoming developers and are trying to make the same game that they liked, but better (at least in their opinion).
... Or it may be because of laziness. One of those :D
I like art style and the corrutpion progression in this game and I hope it will lead to something, because now, You can max the corruption and nothing happens after that. (some pregnancy content would be neat in my opinion).
I think this is the first game of this kind that I ever played. It's nice to see that it's still developed. But also it's alittle bit funny to see it being in developement for so long.
After watching two seasons of Witcher form Netflix, I decided that I have to read Witcher books by Sapkowski again, to check if my memory is so bad or the netfilx version is nowhere near to the original. (Spoiler - netflix's series is not even close in plot and in quality).
