Didn’t witcher 3 already get a remaster a few years ago?
Yeah, we had a first remaster but what about second remaster?

I don’t think they know about second remaster.

Impressive, very nice. Let’s see Paul Allen’s remaster.
Yes, I was a bit underwhelmed. Let’s see how this turns out
Prepare to be whelmed
Underwhelmed is an understatement. The remaster traded the beautiful art direction of the original for shitty upscaled textures and ray tracing. I genuinely prefer the look of the original, let alone the much better performance. The original is playable on a potato (it even reaches 60fps on an overclocked Nintendo switch) and still looks great
Not a full remastere, it got a “RTX” upgrade? They added ray tracing and stuff but they kept the same assets otherwise (no new models, textures, etc).
According to this ign article they did also rework the textures and models he first time around: https://www.ign.com/wikis/the-witcher-3-wild-hunt/Biggest_Changes_in_the_Next-Gen_Update
I stand corrected!
Absolutely insane how little it takes for people to worship a mega corporation that was caught abusing employees and publicly lying for years just the other day.
I wonder why the video game industry is so bad.
free shit == good
apolitical gamers being apolitical but will cry when they get fired from their jobs because they have no idea what class solidarity is because that is too political
I’ll be happy for a free update to a game I already bought long ago. Can’t take back the purchase anyway, might as well take the freebie.
My poor old PC and card were already struggling before the remaster. Now it won’t be able to play it at all and I can’t afford to upgrade cuz every PC part costs a mortgage.
Just build your own transistors out of mica you sift from your local stream, dude. Seriously. I’m tired of hearing all these complaints about the unavailability of computer parts. Back in my day we used to build our own computers out of whatever scraps we found in the fridge from last night’s dinner. Kids these days just need to bootstrap themselves some high-performance GPUs and stop complaining.
(/S, in case it wasn’t obvious)
Hah… “bootstrap”
I see what you did there.
No pun intended
Well, now I just feel silly
Weren’t the extra graphics from the remaster update an optional setting?
The previous one was, yes, so I’d guess they’re going in the same direction here
Settings low? Or is that not enough?
I’m sorry for your loss if it isn’t.Feels unfair if you don’t want the upgrade. It should be an optional dlc or something.
Is it confirmed to be an update to the existing game or a separate game added to your account?
Rockstar did the same with gta v enhanced edition where it was added to your steam account for free but you can still play the original one as well.
I don’t understand the confusion. The remaster IS optional. It’s only required if you want to play the new DLC that is releasing
Great! That’s good then.
Man, it’s getting a fucking free expansion with 20-40 hours gameplay… (to connect witcher 3 and 4)
Medallion’s humming.
Damn, you’re ugly!
just once i want to see a witcher run off and cry to that
I never really got in to the game. It was a bit too open and easy to go off the rails and then have trouble getting back to things.
Sorry I killed your child and charged you for it. Gwent?
I have the opposite problem lol, I dont like playing geralt i rather play my own character like in skyrim
I never really got into “roll your own character” games. I was never creative enough and would always get stuck on that. Probably why I never got into D&D.
My exact issue with games like this. I either railroad myself to the main story into a series of minimap points and never see the world, or i get so lost in the world i never do the 2nd main story mission and get bored
Should be smacking Nintendo. I would have bought a Switch 2 on day one just to play my Switch 1 games with slightly better performance. Now I’m just skipping the console on principle.
I’d like to smack Bethesda for making zero content mod breaking updates multiple times a year, and Steam too for forcing those updates on a 10+ year old single player game. At this point they have killed the modding scene in favor of paid mods and hyping up their fucking TV show.
SMACK
Got it on sale for a few bugs. Never played. Maybe I should start over.
which store accepts bugs, and what kind of bugs are we talking about?
Sorry autocorrect. bucks.
i was hoping for a funny response ._.
OK how about paid with 3 steam-fly’s on gog-bug.
that’s much better. i’ll have to look into that
catching a few steam-flies outside for buying games is great exercise and less monetary expenses.
thanks for the infomation!
Bought it on Switch, played a bit and never got that far.
Bought it on GOG too, played even less. It’s cool that save sync works between them.
I, too, hope to start over and actually play it through this time. I’m definitely going to like it, it’s just hard to get in the habit of playing it and it’s not the kind of game you can just casually launch every couple of months.
why do we need remasters before the next installment of a game?
between super mario 64 and super mario world we got super mario rpg. nowadays we have to wait until 12 of our daughters get married to play a new title in the series when we started playing the game in elementary school.
would it have really killed the gta/fallout franchise owners to spend a few bucks to create a half-assed in between title? they would have generated massive income even if those games sucked.
I don’t entirely agree with you there. If it’s been a long time between two installments, you generally want to replay the old one first and it’s nice to have the option to play a remastered version if it’s been done well.

That kills the hype for the next game because everyone goes “oh they’ve lost it”, meaning possibly more work for less money if the highly anticipated game sells less because of it.
Y’all forgot the screeching y’all did over trying to get cp to run on the PS4/XSX? Bipolar gamers 🤣
