Well they did delay it due to performance issues

Everyone keep calm and don't forget your towel. Wait for the actual release with panicking. This is supposed to be open world so I would not expect a better graphics than W2 had, but I doubt CDR would be satisfied with the game looking worse than the previous one. They will definitely work this out, if not on release then with a free DLC. That's in case it is not just a hoax since the beginning.

Is this becoming the norm for games these days? It frustrates me to see consoles dragging gaming down. We could have a VERY high standard of games (years ahead of what we currently have) if PC gaming was the only main platform.

How many times must the same thing happen before people stop falling for the hype?!

It's 2015. and people still care about graphics.

I don't care. I'm here for the gameplay and story

No shit sherlock, in these years its obvious that all those trailers dont represent actual grahpics...

Anyway, some of those SS's are clearly on some low graphic settings....no reason to spit shit left and right

I just leave this here :

Haha, oh guys. Once again some Internet troll proves people are dumb as fuck, no matter their race, place of birth or sex.

Thank the need to downgrade it for slow consoles and steambox :(

Preordered day one.. guess I should've learned from Dark Souls 2 fiasco. I honestly thought CD project was different but first they released the season pass and now this :(

Downgrade you say?

I guess they had to make exceptions in order to cater to the masses ):
I guess Quality < Quantity

Even now, witcher 2 still looks hella great!

Those could just be from console footages. I have faith in CD Project

Sorry for saying that but I'm probably the only one that doesn't care about TW 3 and thinks that Polish people take it too seriously. No, I don't mean the Clewn by that. There are people who think it's the meaning of life :P

P.S. Clewn, please try to calm down and let people wait for it to come out. You don't know anything about TW 3 either. Let's wait and see. If it looks awesome, then good for You. I would probably even try it on my new PC to see how good it runs. I personally don't care how it looks but I don't want You to become one of the mad Polish people :P

Some people in this topic were really too serious on defending a company.
Now it turns out Op was right after all and there was a downgrade.
Its fun to read those comments now again from all those CDPR Worshipers.
