    Been keeping an eye on the hubbub. Console targeted trash confirmed. I was already put off by the videos and now their backhanded dealings have sealed it for me as a no-buy.
    Hope the next sequel is console exclusive so I dont have to see this shit hyped to oblivion as some PC flagship game.

    Funny how the codex loves to pretend it's all about the C&C, but when push comes to shove they are the WORST graphics whores.


    For me it's actually a plus. Maybe the game will still run on my outdated rig... :M

    I dunno why people are so excited for what is just Witcha 2 but bigger, guess there are alot of disenfranchised bethesda fans and potato nationalists. My experience of Witcha 2 was that the graphix were cool, non retarded medieval fantasy art was nice, the tits too and I kinda like the potato dialog writing, at least it's better than Make me sleep for Eternity, some characters even were charismatic and I cared about them what, for videogame standards, was a good potato achievement but every time I saw an enemy... I wished I had a clone to play that thing while I took a coffe break and the talking started again.

    Will wait and let the hysteria pass to see if the combat is as shitty as Witcha 2 (fooled me once, won't do twice CDPR.), if the quests are just follow the red footsteps road with plenty of "click here for cinematic time" as I fear and the character progression consisting of "doing the same shit since the beginning over and over but better."

    The German Gamestar-review (general tone: very positive) noted character progress as one of the very few real disappointments of the game. They say it's meaningless and only "15% more this" vs. "10% more that" stuff.

    Wow, it don't look that bad after all. People try to hard sometimes. Now only delete rolls, make spins and stronger attacks drain stamina and delete 'Witcher Ea- eyes'.

    the game looks pretty good. I haven't watched any streams or anything but from the little glimpse I've had I'm more worried about the difficulty thus the importance of the alchemy and spells. I gotta check the requirements to see if I can try to play it.
    guys I dont understand shit about the requirements, it's all like XENON ABYTHRON 3,6 GHz quadro core..

    Can my PC run this shit?

    Inter Core2 Quad CPU Q6600 @2,40 GHz 2,4GHz
    4 GB RAM
    GeForce 8800 GT

    I don't even understand what that CPU shit means, like is it 2 processors or a processor with 2 cores or what the fuck

    Is there any way to disable this "x Brofists this." crap from being displayed? It's getting on my nerves.

    It means your computer is antiquated. Time for a new one. That GPU ain't running anything modern these days at over 5 fps on low settings.

    Bro, don't be a dumbfuck. It's not really about the graphics, OK? VtMB and MotB weren't pinnacles of technology back in the day and nobody cared.

    So it's about three things:
    a) PR based solely on the wild imagination of the marketing department. "Hey, we'll tell you anything you want to hear if it helps us to squeeze that preorder out of you. We even got a demo here, see?" (Nevermind that the actual game will be nowhere close.)
    b) Acute consolitis. FFS, even pre-release reviews are all based on the PS4 version. Not that I would believe game journos in any case but still it's quite telling.
    c) Spending millions on ads and shitty tasteless trailers instead of focusing on finally making a good combat system for example.

    In other words, it's about behaving like a typical faceless corporation stuffing fancy packages with AAA content garbage for the clueless masses and lying at every step. If it were EA or Ubisoft, I'd say whatever, they do it all the time. But we're not yet used to getting that kind of crap from our Polish friends.

    Why is everyone complaining about the combat system before even playing the game? Most reviewers like the combat. It wont be a rollfest like witcher 3 because the dodgeroll drains stamina now, thats all i was asking for. Many compare it to dark souls with a faster pace which would be perfectly fine for me.

    Rendertrailer:

    http://www.gamersyde.com/hqstream_the_witcher_3_wild_hunt_a_night_to_remember-34647_en.html

    Kinda reminds me of the Rendertrailer from the first game. Pretty decent if you ask me.

    It seems that a lot of people played The Witcher 2 with 8800gts,dual cores and worked pretty good.

    I can't seem to find more informations about The Witcher 3 Direct X requirement,on every site the minimum req is DirectX 11 so a 8800gt is a no go.
