AnimalMother117: I've been kicking around whether or not to pre-order this, I want the physical copy personally on PC. I have some pretty high expectations, whic is kind of bad because if it doesn't "change RPGs as we know them" it would probably disappoint at least a little. I'm hoping it doesn't play too much like 2, because they have played distinctively thus far. I expect great writing, fun combat, reasonably enjoyable difficulty, great music, great acting, and finally exceptional graphics.
I love the first two games a lot and highly recommend beating them, but do take your time, the games are both intricate enough that they deserve to be explored.
Although I am a bit concerned about an enhanced version coming out in a couple of years, anyone else?
The problem with "changing RPG's as we know them" is that the result will most likely be something we *won't like*...;) People like RPGs because they are, well..RPGs, and not something else.
It does not, however, make a bit of sense to pre order, imo. Like the OP says, "He can't wait" so he pre-orders. But, he's going to have to wait anyway, isn't he? A 50% discount from starting MSRP *might* be a good reason to pre order....but then, since we'll all have to wait anyway, pre-order or not, you might do better than that six months or less after the game ships--with the added benefit of the game getting any critical fixes it may need *before* we install and play.
Also, if CDPR does a W3 enhanced version, it'll be free for those who have already bought the game--so if anything it'll just be an excuse for replay--if it takes that long for it to materialize. I think that is more along the lines of something to anticipate as opposed to worry about...;)
I forgot to add that hopefully W3 will be very amenable to modding--like Skyrim for the PC. That will make a huge difference in the look and appearance of the game--not to mention its popularity--I feel almost sorry for console owners having to plod through a vanilla Skyrim.
