That was sarcasm? Oh...
My sarcasm detector must be broken, that's twice I've not been able to tell in 24 hours. XD

So now that the game has leaked a bunch...
Any ideas how they are handling choices from the previous games on PS4? People kept saying they would have something so people could make some choices but I havent seen anything.

At the start there is a scene with geralt in the bathtub where the barber asks you some questions about the previous games (choices) to let you decide the world state.

There is a dialogue with a barber while visiting emperor where you can say what you did in previous game.
edit - dammit beaten twice

ahhhhhhhhhh fuck me ..

I'm hoping you can turn off the motion blur (maybe in a later patch), it would look much better without it.
Games like those should be quite rare to be honest. Two games off the top of my head that had slight IQ improvements on PS4 but worse frame rates are COD AW and Dragon Age Inquisition. I'm willing to bet for both games the devs were more focused on getting the XB1 version up to scratch. I could be wrong, but I think COD Black Ops 3 should have a resolution advantage while maintaining a very close frame rate to the XB1 version. Just to clarify, I'm making a guess here. I have no insider info. Regarding The Witcher 3, I think the frame rate should be very similar on both versions. Then again, perhaps CDP were working more on the XB1 version because it was the lowest common denominator. Only time will tell.

DA:I had worse framerate on PS4? I never knew that. I didn't notice a single drop in 100 hours of gameplay. *Shrugs*
Regardless, I'd take a permanent IQ boost at the expense of rare and small FPS dips over a permanently worse IQ and more stable framerate any day of the week.

According to DF, the PS4 version would drop 2-3 frames more than the XB1 version during more demanding scenes. But I agree with you. I prefer better visual fidelity than occasional drops since I can only detect a drop when the frame rate is below 27 FPS. Oh, and DA:I also had better tessellation on PS4.

that's some pretty heinous motion blur
I hope it was only worsened by the Youtube compression because it does look overdone.
Yeah turning it off the second I get into the game/start the launcher if it has options like W2

I pray we get an option to do so :/

Holy shit is that on a console?
I am totally going to save and jump off that balcony.
Yes, that's the PS4 version. I love how people are doubting if it's the console version because it looks so good.
I'm also finding it funny how there is a jump option when Geralt is on a fucking balcony. Where would it lead to I wonder? XD
Do consoles usually have the option? I know they have the options to unlock framerate in some games and I think turn off CA in 1 game?

hahahaha i was about to post that as well.
Yeah its looking pretty good can't wait until reviews come out for this
Yeah, it's from a PS4 stream.
Sorry for what reason exactly? Project Car runs worse on xone at lower res. Where coming from this bizzarre convinction everytime a game it's announced, it will be more stable on xone because lower res? It's just the price of the half ROPS in the gpu, nothing more.

Maybe you can disable it on PC but i doubt there is the option to do so on consoles.
It's just a strange belief that the hardware advantage in the PS4 isn't capable of higher resolutions and frame rates at the same time because of a few games. Calm down. Truth is, there are probably more games that dispute this belief than those that prove it.
I'm just asking what is it the tech explanation. Because AF no much time ago seems was a plague to the ps4 hardware, with bizzarre tech explanations from more than one eh.

Why are we so willing to think the worst. CDPR have been unashamed about not trying to milk every last penny from us as gamers and instead focused on putting out the best game they possibly could.
THis is pre release footage that doesn't have the day1 patch which is set to address any frame rate issues. Shouldn't we at the very least wait until we have the complete game running as intended before some people write it off.
Game looks impeccable to me

When is review embargo up anyway?
I believe people think that way because they don't think the hardware gap between the two is enough for better resolution and frame rates on the PS4 version. That's it. I don't think there's some explanation to it.

In two days, iirc.

I know it's only 9 days away, but that is too long.
Can you please name those games where PS4 had both res and fps advantage? and how many of those are open world?
I know for sure that if both versions would run at the same res PS4 will destroy the XB1 in every category, but maybe in open world games the gap is narrower because the CPU is extremely weak for both (and even worse for PS4) and in such conditions the PS4 works extremely hard maintaining that full HD and stable FPS at the same time, still I would never ask devs to lower the PS4 resolution as in both COD and DA it's not too bad and the IQ totally worth it.
Well Project Cars is the last victim on PS4 with worse AF, although in some games the PS4 version was patched (DmC) it seems to still plague the system.

Quality Arabic work here, they did a fantastic job with the translation (The best so far specially a game of this size). Also they handled the censoring very well in my opinion.
Here is an interview about The Witcher 3 localization in the region

I have no desire to play anything because of this game, lol. The wait is killing me.
Let's see, a few games off the top of my head right now:
Far Cry 4 (Based on NXGamer's analysis. DF's analysis was flawed as the PS4 version was only lower for ONE scene, mostly because the player was closer to the explosion)
Dying Light
Project Cars
Mortal Kombat X
Battlefield 4 (though neither are 1080p)
Evolve

You already playing it ?
Not too many games and that's including not open world as well, basically I don't think we can see a pattern for both sides, but it's just a hunch I have after people reported some drops on PS4 and seeing these XB1 videos running pretty smoothly.
Give me a sec, I'm still updating the list
Anyway, there are more games that have both a higher resolution and frame rate and sometimes even more (better AA and volumetric lighting in Far Cry 4) on PS4. So if anything, it should be the other way around. Regarding The Witcher 3, we can't be too sure yet until someone does a frame rate test for both. There's even a day one patch that may fix the frame rate drops on the PS4 version.Sephiroth_GR_

Wow. Impressive work.
People in the middle east needs to pay them back, by buying the game now!
I will try to triple dip, once i go back home, just to have an arabic version of the game
Thanks a lot. Watching now. The quality of the stream is quite good. Hop in, guys!
Edit: Shit! Just as I was watching it. Did anyone notice any frame rate drops?
Annnnnd it's gone. That was quick.
