We previously reported on another The Witcher 3 mod called First Person Camera Reworked. However, the creator of that mod freely admits that Gervant First Person delivers a more complete first person experience in the open world action roleplaying game. That said, you should be warned there are several differences compared to the regular third person gameplay. This The Witcher 3 mod also comes with a few limitations, as outlined by its creator.
Player character is rotated with camera (unless performing some action) You can move back and sideways (move forward animation is used) Hold “Move forward” to do short attack. Don’t hold “Move forward” to attack in place. Hold “Modify Attack Distance” to do long attack. Automatic guard stance is disabled Combat target lock is disabled Knockdown is changed to stagger Roll in combat is changed to jump Cannot roll to reduce fall damage, damage is always reduced Modified movement has no inertia. You can instantly run in opposite direction
You can take a look at a video demonstration of The Witcher 3 mod ‘Gervant’ in the video below. As a reminder, CD Projekt RED has scheduled a next-generation patch for PC and consoles to be released in the coming months.
