This was a game that had been been released and finished around 7 years ago, and it was nearly as perfect a game as I had ever played. Then, a Next Gen update was released. If this update had been about fixing existing bugs and updating graphics for players on Next Gen Consoles and those of us with superior hardware, I would have loved it. Instead, it included not just a limited overhaul of character design, but a savage slew of nerfs, most especially to Toxicity and Alchemy. This change heavily impacted not just Alchemy Builds but even more so Signs and general Combat Builds. I say savage nerfs and I wish I could use the language that best expresses my anger about these changes, which is even stronger. This kind of overhaul to an existing game is too much for me. Coupled with various other problems I’ve had with CDPR and its approach to its games, I will no longer be buying their games or using GOG to purchase anything from them ever again. I am very glad now that I never wrote a review for this which was once a brilliant game. Feel free to think of me with the feeling of good riddance but that is a light comparison to how I now feel about CDPR. I sincerely hope that they go bankrupt and fade into obscurity. No door will hit me on the way out because I am gone with a great speed.
