Dude, just look at the Geralt's hair and his body.
It's not awesome.
Especially hairs.

Graphics are really cool, but from a distance, when you get close, textures are blurry/pixelated.
But from a distance, totally looks great.

When i look at the scenery up close, it's not pixelated for me. The trees and bushes look really good. Geralt is a bit pixely i agree, but some of the stuff is amazing.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

Try not running it on low.

That's the best thing I've heard, I LOVED Arkham Asylum because unlike most games like it, it didn't feel like a chore to fight, it was actually the highpoint of the game. Just as happy every time I saw enemies run towards me.

I don't get the weird combat system. No tutorial at all. I am also unable to see when I should hit block to actually block an attack from someone. Very annyoing. Sure I can mash my left mousebutten and win, but that is kinda pointless and reminds me of Assassins Creed.


Jesus fuck, this. I haven't played The Witcher in YEARS lol so I died at least 10 times during the prologue. I was cursing and about ready to put my fist through my monitor. Then I remembered that you can't spam your left mouse button, you have to click at specific timings, and learning those timings and when to use heavy attacks is a big deal. Also, alchemy is huge, I would die in almost every engagement where I forgot to have a combat regen potion up. A real tutorial would have helped a lot I think, but at the same time, having to learn it like I did has helped me become better (more than a tutorial would if that makes sense)

Also, I'm running a game NOT on 1920x1080 for the first time since building my rig so I can have it on ultra. The game looks amazing, if you have any complaints you're just going to have to upgrade your system, sorry :/

Edit: A single comma can change the meaning of a first sentence a lot.

you may look at this chart:

this will give you a good idea about the optimization.

I play with a 512mb 9600gt and it's not good at all ,I play on 1600x900 and everything off/low (shadow etc)and I still got a pretty low fps... all the cutscenes lags and shit and also I need to play in window-mode. Nothing I recommend at all

I'm confused as to how this gives a good idea about optimization. To me that says you need a crazy machine to run in on ultra at 1920x1080. Just like Crysis when it first came out.

Edit: I'm looking at all your posts Invoker and it just sounds like you need a better computer. But I would gladly play the game on low anyways, the story is absolutely amazing.

I don't need a better computer. This is absolutely fine.
I just need Nvidia to make better drivers.

I'm not sure this will any help but did you try to use quen sign? I did pass there but I didn't do anything particularly.

I'm confused. You run into the left building, stay there and kill the bad guys, then run to the next building, kill the bad guys then stay inside the gate area and kill the bad guys, where are you dying?

Beta drivers, which people say give better performance. They're beta so try at your own risk even though most say there stable.

If you really think that you did all okey then it must be a bug or something.
The game is still new, it might be.

Is anyone else stuck at the Dragon bit in the prologue? I've played it like 20 times, keep getting burnt and dying =(


enter the left hallway
let your allies kill the guards

wait until the dragon returns to his position abov ethe gate

as soon as he is there run to the next hallway

let your friends beat the guards again then you go to the gate
