Witcher 3 gameplay from YouTubers from CDPR event

By the way the boat section in the monsters trailer looks so much better than the footage in angryjoe video.

Can't wait to see the final build of the game running on Ultra on my pc.
 
Here are some screenshots and a gif I took from the new monsters trailer.

Shots look nice. I'm ready for an open world jaunt again after finishing up on Bloodborne. But something about this is off a little bit with me, can't put my finger on it. I imagine I'll grab it but I'll maybe hang fire until I see some GAF reviews......I never played the first, only played the 2nd very briefly.
 
So, at the end of the monsters trailer we see the King of the Wild Hunt back to his glorious form, I know they are most likely only re-using old footage but that scene with the village burning is the best there is imo, looks so good.
 
Ι hope CDP releases legitimate PS4 footage today and wont do the mistake of just showing PC footage with PS4 prompts...

I hope the folks at CDP know that we will eventually find out if they do something like that...
 
I'm not sure Sony can really release anything can they?
MS have the marketing deal, but I'm a little perplexed why MS aren't flooding the Internet with XB1 console footage....

The german pr guy and a german level designer have both confirmed, that they're waiting on Sony release the footage.
 
I really am so pumped for this game. It's crazy.


Which is weird because although I have been a fan of the first two, I had many critiques of them, and it took me several times of trying to even finish the second. (Never finished the 1st, got to the swamps and quit).


But this entry seems to be doing everything right, and I really like the direction it's going in.


In addition it being the first truly current gem only RPG, with no load screens, cutting edge tech, and gorgeous art. That helps as well.
 
Then why is Sony Poland announcing they'll show PS4 footage?

Because obviously they are in some short of agreement with CDPR about releasing PS4 footage. Besides CDPR is a polish studio, so keeping tabs with PS Poland seems pretty reasonable to me.

But.

Whatever PS Poland will show, it has to go through CDPR first.

And in any case we are side tracking here. My point was that whoever shows, whatever they show, they better be legit or else we will soon find out and it wont look good for them. Thats the point.

I had a similar experience, I played the first one but I somehow couldn't continue after I got to the swamps.
Than when the second game came, I got interested in the series again. So I played and completed it, loved it, turned to the first one again and completed it.

Did you start the original from the beginning? I though about trying it, but I also found my old saves, so I could try and starting from the swamps...

Tempted..

It's interesting that you say you've been a fan of the first two when you never finished 1 ... (which is arguably the better game of the two) very interesting !

I was absolutely loving TW1 until the swamps, then I kind of got bogged down, got distracted by other games, then tried to come back ages later and couldn't remember what was going on.
 
I'll be playing on PC but I sympathise with those hungry for console footage. I get the perspective that since the game isn't out it doesn't really matter, but people keen to pre-order special editions that risk limited quantity and those wishing to grab it at launch would naturally want to be informed as to the quality of the build to see if it meets their standard or, if they're multiplatform owners, which build they'd prefer. Less than two weeks before launch and no formal direct feed footage of each build and very little in the ways of impressions is frustrating.

Then I fail to see how you're a "fan" ...

I personally finished W1 twice, completely.

I finished W2 once and restarted it like 15 times but never got further than the beginning of ACT 2.. So I never saw the new quests in Act III for the Enhanced Edition... something in 2 feels off to me.

Because I loved what I played? It got me to buy and finish the sequel. Got me to read the comics. Got me to start reading the books. Got me to buy the CE of WH on PS4, as well as the PC version, and upgrade my PC completely to play it in 4K.


No, didn't finish the first, but I may yet, and I would say I am still a fan.

You are missing the best part if you havent finished the first Witcher. Just sayin' ... get going! :)
 
I'm swamped by work the past few 65+ hour weeks so I could be imagining things but I thought I read in this very thread that there is a physical PC edition with the game on a blu ray?
 
Then why is Sony Poland announcing they'll show PS4 footage?
Because it's so close to release date and Microsoft failed to provide any Xbox One footage despite marketing deal (other than labelling PC gameplay with Xbox One logo and creating shitstorm in the process). Maybe? Possibly?
 
LOL

I have all the books on my shelf (except Season of Storms), but haven't read it yet since I have no time at the moment.
The last series I read was GRR Martins Song of Ice and Fire and it took me a long time to finish reading all the books (so far).

Yes, but on multiple DVDs, not Blu-ray. I don't think Blu-ray has taken off enough for anyone to start releasing PC games in that format.
 
I get it. Didn't realise BluRay drives for PC are still expensive. Pain in the ass, but I guess once the game is installed it's all good.

PC has been going towards all digital for a long time now. I haven't had a dvd/bluray drive in my PC for over 8 years now.

Got anything to back that up or it's just other assumptions?
 
I am still waiting for pre-load announcement on PC. They are probably under NDA/contract with MS that is why pre-load is up on X1 for weeks now and PS4 and PC are only getting "Soon" treatment. I mean if they don't know when will be pre-load on GOG there is something wrong in that company :D
