In one of the collections of Witcher comics there's an interview with Borys Pugacz-Muraszkiewicz, a lead writer at CD Projekt Red, where he talks about the influence comics had on the videogames. When the team were coming up with their bible for the first Witcher game, setting down the basics of tone and so on, they decided to give Geralt the abrupt speech patterns of a comic book character. Borys doesn't name names, but Game Geralt always made me think of Wolverine. If you've read the books you'll know that Geralt there can be quite garrulous, while in the games he talks like a man allergic to prepositions. In the comics based on the games based on the books Geralt speaks with that same terse style, and it feels like a homecoming.
