[Megathread] Witcher 3

[Deleted]

Well, recommended specs rarely, if ever, reach 60 fps on high settings.

And that is unacceptable for the PC Master Race.

Link i posted has to do with why witcher 3 has 16 hours of sex

The old man sure gets around.

Not exactly safe for forums but http://www.pcgamer.com/cd-projekt-ex...e-mo-cap-data/

Whaa...

Wait; they actually had people in dotted pajamas get in front of a MOCAP camera and... do it?

That's... disturbing.

ALSO:

"That sounds like an awful lot of sex scene motion capture data, and the game apparently even opens with the tail-end, so to speak, of a libidinous encounter between Geralt and Yennefer."

So he's cheating on Triss?

16 hours of motion capture data doesn't need to mean 16 hours of actual scenes, obviously we dont know for sure until release but that needs to be said the way that was worded.

Not developers fault most people's computers suck?

You must be new to the Witcher, you cheat on Triss like 50 times between TW1 and TW2. She's kinda using his amnesia though so, w/e!

Aren't they more like "best friends with benefits"?

Yeah, magical friends with benefits.
IIRC witchers don't feel love but they are aware of what it means to be romantic for those times he runs into Triss.

No, but that's why we have minimum speccs.
It's 2015 already, stop catering to wooden PCs somewhere in Bongo where the internet line is literally a line to the best bongo drummer in the village.

30 fps on a i7 3770 and a gtx 770 is wooden computer catering? Are you using a quad 980 SLI with a 5960x and 32 GB of ram or something?

More on the free dlc front and their intention with it.

Are you telling me that your computer wouldn't be able to take 60fps?

A counter-pirate method that actually BENEFITS those who buys a legit copy?
Sure took a while.

[zealo]

I'm fairly certain that with a 4790k/780 SLI and 16 gb of ram I will be able to reach 60 fps but the level the recommended specs sits at is not exactly "wooden" either.

[Deleted]

They must think it is to limit W3 at 30fps.

[WskyDK]

Hello, I'd like one trip to the Uncanny Valley. No sir, just me

[Terahertz]

What's with the hype for this game? I tried Witcher 2 but I quit the first 30 min of playing due to how clunky the movement felt. Like, it felt as though I was moving with a D-pad. Is that a bug or is that how the game is supposed to be?

[Deleted]

Because it seems really fun.

that the reason I'm going to play that game

You'll be so disappointed.

[stellvia]

I wonder why they're saying the console version of the game will be larger than the PC version? Seems odd, considering the graphics will be toned down even.

[Frozenbeef]

I never really understood why games on pc seem to require a lot higher requirements compared to their console counterpart and most of the time the graphic increase isn't that great :/

[stellvia]

Except there is, you just don't know what to look for. To varying degrees, it's a matter of resolution, framerate, texture quality, and numerous post-processing effects.

The console games are often 720-900p, 30-60fps, degraded textures, and less post-processing. Whereas on the PC version you're running 1080-1440p, 120fps, higher res textures, better AA, smoke, lighting effects, more precise controls, etc.

Some folks seem to argue that console games look just as good as they do on PC's. this is only the case in badly ported games for example take skyrim and now add the extra graphic option mods to it all , it's all those minor extras you don't have in consoles that eat up your previous computing power. People who mostly play on consoles and have an okay computer don't notice it, i have a PS3 and when i started playing gta on it, well i was kinda bummed by the quality, while it isn't a fair comparison as my gfx card in my pc cost just as much as the whole PS3 GTA bundle, i did notice a rather large difference between 5 and 4 upgrade visually.

Also consoles are more tuned for one setup, while pc's are not this has both their cons and pros. It means hardware generally takes a longer time to be optimal but when it is it is good. It's why you generally don't recommend people to buy the latest card in the product line if you buy it for gaming.
