Artur Ganszyniec’s 26-episode, 40-hour-long playthrough of the first game in The Witcher trilogy has finally come to an end, but the game developer, who served as lead story designer on the 2007 game, waited until the final five minutes of his trip down memory lane to drop the juiciest piece of info regarding its development. According to Ganszyniec, the writers at CD Projekt Red were “not really” involved in the creation of its final cutscene, and this “mistake” ultimately forced the team to take The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings’ story in a completely different direction.
