I'm pretty sure those aren't real word.

I know of orbicularis oris. It's your "ring muscle" that enables you to move your lips, basically, and make shapes with it

It looked like just weird angles and lighting to me.

the trailer did feel a bit off in general, what really gets to me is how.. badly? ciri fights, she just throws up her sword over and over again which makes her look like a panicked amateur, when she's supposed to have trained with a sword since childhood!

I finally decided to watch the trailer. Here's what really bothers me:

CDPR give us our first glimpse into the world of The Witcher 4 as Ciri takes on a fearsome monster called the Bauk in this trailer pre-rendered in a custom build of Unreal Engine 5.

I know it's just the first trailer, but this tells me nothing about what the game will look like, or run like. UE5 is notoriously hard to optimize properly for, and this is CDPR's first game using it. I'm already pretty sure my 3060Ti won't run it, but I'm sorta worried that we're talking 5090Ti if I want to run it on my 1440p 120Hz screen, which isn't even a high resolution or refresh rate nowadays.

I also don't like that they replaced the voice actor, but then I think this is supposed to be a more mature Ciri, whereas Witcher 3 Ciri was still pretty young. So it makes sense.

Yeah games using UE are always worth waiting a bit on, so many of them run poorly, either low fps or stutters and other weird issues.

I don’t want to sound like a neck beard but I would prefer her character model to look like her w3 one with just age applied. This one looks like someone doing cosplay and they also have Botox. It was cool trailer … excited about Ciri … just hope they improve her model.

I was with you until you said Botox lmao

Haha well sorcery then…Her skin is so smooth and filled in. I was expecting lines from aging. Much like Geralt looked weather worn… he didn’t have silky smooth skin.
