Witcher 3 on consoles look worse than Witcher 2 PC.?

If it looks like that on PC as well , then I'll be extremely disappointed . Look at those static trees , outdated dust effects , stiff animations and so on . Rumor did say that , on consoles it'll look close to Witcher 2 . At this point it looks worse than Witcher 2 PC on low settings (bloom enabled) and Medium Textures .

Witcher 2 on PC :

So , graphics are downgraded .? Or it is because it is running on Xbox One or it is just video quality .?

Had some weird blur to it. Was not impressed with what I saw.

Dunno, I think it looked quite good.

That's very possible considering the power difference.

My friend, you have to take into consideration one simple fact: this game is totally sandbox open-world on the scale of The Elder Scrolls. Even if it's not such a big leap or not a big leap at all - it's totally understandable because of the game's scope!

@Salt_The_Fries: Last years' leaked footage looks better and trailers too .

The density and scale of the environments means it's already much better than TW2

This.

How can you compare a compressed youtube video to a direct feed screenshot?

that was on x1

just saying

Let's not forget that's Xbone footage.

I'm sure it'll look better on other devices.

Witcher 3 looked fantastic during the Microsoft briefing, even more so considering the game is set in an open world.

I understand that. It's also why DA origins is so close to me, even above The Witcher. And why i hate DA2. But it does provide you with teh ability to make choices and affect the story line. In terms fo RPG, it's not one where you can completly overhaul Geralt like in TES games.

If that's not to your liking, i can't recommend it. The Witcher is heavy on lore. I may be mistaken, but it's based on a series fo novels, so they can't completly change everything. I admit i had problem with even the first game, but i think it's a great RPG if you accept the above parts.

I think there's a bunch of comics they released to help you catch up to the story. Not sure if that's the thing. Or you could watch youtube plays. If you really want to play TW3.

Imperium, let's not jump the comclusions. I want to see the final product on both consoles, and pc.

It's because it's running on a potato.

I thought it looked great.

It still looks really nice considering the console hardware.

nah TW3 looks better on xbone than TW2 on PC from what I saw.

PS4 isn't equipped with Titan Z either . The biggest difference will be resolution . PC on other hand ... (if not downgraded)

just add some black bars to the console version

Why would you need a Titan Z?

Better than Xbox version yes , better than PC version , No . At this point , it looks like Witcher 1.5 .

And your basing that off badly compressed off screen footage? The stupidity of SW never ceases to amaze me. You cant possibly make out texture detail by that footage. Sorry but your just another sad butthurt hermit hoping the game looks bad on consoles.

I thought it looked fantastic, and now I'm expecting what even more powerful systems can do.

Here we go... the usual "it looks sh** on consoles, PC is better!"... Blah blah blah.

I thought it looked pretty good for a 720p streamed video. It looked better than the Division with its over use of motion blur and depth of field.

You don't . Just saying because lot of people here are like "Lol Xbox , will be much better on PS4" . That's why .

This is not about PC vs Consoles , my friend . I'm worried that the game may have been downgraded and asking people to write what they think of this . Is it impressive .? Or is it bad looking because it is not running on PC or it looks bad because of video quality .

I've never made PC vs Consoles thread .

I agree.

I'm standing by my statement. I have the game on PC. It looks great but I can tell you right off the bat the lighting on the xbone version of TW3 is better.

Are you this gullable? I bet that was the PC version with an X1 controller again.

Open World witcher..... probably alot more demanding.

It still looked good... and no, it looked better than TW2 ...

I have yet to play Witcher 2, but isn't W3 supposed to be MUCH bigger in scale? That could have a lot to do with it.

Besides, this wasn't PC footage and CD Projekt knows where their bread is buttered.

Even if it doesn't look leaps and bounds better than W3 it doesn't really matter because it looks like the game will be fun as **** to play

do we have any proof of where the footage came from for E3?

the game was probably running on a PC anyway. It's always on a PC....

It won't look that much better on the PS4 if that's what you're getting at

PC on the other hand, of course.

i haven't seen it yet,but it would very misleading for them to use the PC version for the microsoft conference.

Thats just not something i think they would agree to do.

I think it looks great. Especially considering how massive it is supposed to be. Can't wait to do those monster hunts in that big ass world.

Microsoft did use Dice pc footage before for BF4 on stage.

IDK, it's possible, they could have just dialed down the resolution to around 720p and set the settings to low.

True, I trust CDPR they seem pretty cool.

Actually, I enjoyed how their part of the conference was just straight to the gameplay. No bullshit flowery introduction.

They all do that shit for their previews. Then just claim it's a PC built to spec for a x1 or Ps4

combat in this game looks awesome

and pc gamers won't need to worry about the graphics. i'm confident they'll look after their loyalists.

It looks amazing.

Hopefully that's true because VGX trailer looks phenomenal . This one , not so much . They have their own booth on June 10th . Hopefully we'll get answers there .

@Cloud_imperium:

Maybe not but we all know that's what it's going to turn into.

typical pc fanboyism. "looks worse than witcher 2 on low". lul riiiiiiiight

because trees and rocks in the corner of your screen is the measuring stick to how fun a game is.....sad little hermits.

That video looks bad. I doubt the game on PS4 will look like that.

looks good enough to me, not to mention the game is supposed to be more open world, which is largely going to effect its graphic performance

Ha, dude is starting to look like Solid Snake with his eye fixed.

The Witcher 3 footage shown craps all over the Witcher 2
