Are You A Tired Parent? The Witcher 3’s New Accessibility Mode Was Built With You In Mind

CD Projekt Red has introduced Bard’s Ballad, an accessibility preset for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, designed to make play less demanding for people who struggle to concentrate or have limited time. The studio says it also has tired players, including parents, in mind.

The preset bundles optional settings, which players can also adjust individually. They include disabling item weight and weapon durability, as well as herb icons on the mini-map; the aim is to reduce inventory management and other distractions. Players can leave the settings off and play as usual.
