Good article. They admit the PC version could have been better without console development, but think the game would not have been possible without them.

I saw that and I called it. I don't see anything wrong in their logic, but I'm sure some keyboard warrior will.

Thanks for linking it. Makes sense. A simple, small tech demo can show more muscles than a complex game world. Especially the parts addressing the streaming problem with huge textures and the engine switch, because the old one couldn't handle night time very well, make a lot of sense.

Personally I'm fine with the graphics as they are, gameplay and story is much more important in an RPG imo. They did a very good job, no complaints from me.

It makes sense. Selling on consoles make more money but requires compromises.

I just fail to understand why they were dancing around the issue before the game was actually released. If they had simply gave a proper explanation like this from the start it would've been a lot easier to swallow for people.

Potentially without console development there wouldn't of been a Witcher 3...... But gotta have dem pixels.

At least that would have spared us a few whiners on general discussion on launch day.

Right now, my only complaint with the graphics comes from the crappy nVidia drivers.
Seriously, a GTX 960 with a performance similar to a Titan? It cannot be a coincidence: the game runs badly for me and some friends of mine who own a 700 series card, while it runs (almost, if you don't count freezes due to bugs) flawlessly with those who own a 900 one or an AMD. Reading around the internet seems to gather similar results as well.
Also, that trolling GeForce Experience says I can run everything on high/ultra with my GTX770, yet the game stutters. Really really bad.
I hope they are workig on a REAL driver update...

Completely agree with you on that.
One guy on /v/ was bashing this game claiming that he should not have to read a bestiary entry in order to play a game and how it has artificial difficulty because he wasn't able to take down a noon wraith without using yrden. (which apparently is suggested in bestiary)

Edit: Also look at all those Koreans acting like CDPR took off with their money without releasing anything at all. It was delayed by 2 days as per official statement but still they went into rating spamming mode.
