What i find most lacking on the internet is empathy. Whether people are doing it on purpose to be mean (or just look stupid) or simply lack such a basic human ability is beyond me to answer. What i can say here is that if you did the same mistake as he did, you'd be just as pissed off and whiny. Money, or potential sources of big income does funny things to people, especially if they didnt have much in the first place.

I agree.
Surprising, coming from you, though...
But then again... we are all so eager to judge, blame, criticize others on the internet, that, probably, most of the time, we are way off reality.

Absolutely.
People remember some of his interviews about hating on video games as a medium, and resent him for it.

But that's what makes him a cunt. He shits on video games, hates the medium with passion, thinks a game will not sell at all—and without any advice from someone that knows better—insists on a terrible deal rather than what is offered (sum of money instead of percentage of revenue). Then the fucker badmouths them some more, and finally wants cash because cash. That's the definition of cunt in my book.

Sapkowski IS a cunt. He wants more cash than what was originally agreed to because he didn't have faith that the games would have any success, and all on an intellectual property he fucking stole from Moorcock

Age has nothing to do with it. He has always been a cunt. Mike Pondsmith is old too, but he isn't a cunt. I think Dmitry Glukhovsky described him best.

Age has everything to do with it, dont be stupid. When you're 60 and sitting down with your old fashioned games and some kid shows you what they're enjoying now, you'll say its idiotic. You probably say it even now about what the younger generation now enjoy. A lot of us here are the very same kind of people so this shouldn't be surprising.
Cant defent blatant stealing as thats a dick move, but there is no evidence so who cares.

I expect people not to be cunts. I expect old fucktards to stand by their bad deals, rather than act like cunts. He opted for this type of deal, he bad mouthed them after the deal was made.
I know you are an old cunt too, I know it's hard for you to see others get called what you should be called too. Doesn't mean people here are wrong.

Nah, Sapkowski was a cunt 30 years ago too. He's just bitter somebody else made his creation infinitely more popular and profitable than he was able to on his own. He went the extra mile to show off his cynicism at different times in recent years. It's one thing not to care about or understand modern trends, it's a whole other thing to shit on the same people that buy your books and support you in one way or another. That's bad business, especially since you're associated with the same people you claim are dumb fucks. He actually started to mellow out after he signed his Netflix deal, so I suspect the Hollywood producers forced him to keep his mouth shut.

@Silent_Lurker
Wait till you get to the season finale. I reduced my total score from 8 to 7.5 for this episode alone 
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

I have no problem with him getting his cash, he's still a cunt though.
I'd have more 'empathy' if he behaved himself a bit better, but instead of being pissed on himself and/or the ones he set up the contract with... he lashed out to everyone.
In the end CDPR was willing no? He probably could have had something sooner and without people looking down upon him.

I think the battle and Vilgefortz's story arc in this episode were badly written.
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

I'd think some sort of prequel set at the height of Witcher school activity would be the best idea, but I don't know if they'd want to give up cameos from all the established characters they have.

Agreed to both parts. Seems unlikely i guess.
They also could do something more linear this time but after TW3 and CP2077 it's doubtful they would leave the open-world and go linear.
CDPR are (they even admitted that) using worlds created by others so i think they wouldn't make a totally new main character. Unless after CP2077 they get really cocky. Let's face it - they have to fail sometime. If CP2077 fares better than TW3 things the next thing may be their downfall (even if small).

There's no way Cyberpunk will fail, given how hyped up it has been. It's possible it might "perform below expectations" if it is absolutely terrible and word spreads quickly, but even that seems unlikely. It will do massive launch week numbers and even if the content has been gutted compared to what they original promised it will probably be lapped up by the mass market.

I expect them to focus on one of the other witcher for their next witcher game. Young Vesemir, Lambert, Eskel, even somebody like Letho, who is their original character.

I could see them doing a Ciri game especially with the culture that we seem to be currently living in with the strong female characters wanted.

They've been experimenting with other genres, like the isometric perspective in Gwent. Perhaps an aRPG set in the Witcher universe?
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

I hope not. Her story should be put to bed, same as Geralt's. Time for some different characters.
