They're is short for "They Are", its confusing to read in your context.
"Their" works better![]()
(((Their)))Actually the correct word in the context would be "there".![]()
I'm curious how big the gameplay additions are, seems odd it would take so long to add RT support and some mods. Maybe the content and performance uplift were what took some amount of time.Next-gen update December 14.

The first game is basically unplayable the gameplay is so bad, but it has the best story & atmosphere of the bunch. Witcher 2 combat is pretty similar to Witcher 3, but the third game is a bit better. The game really doesn't do anything great in terms of gameplay, it's just a cool world with fun lore and stories. I'm going to check out the update, but I don't know that I can sink 200 hours in playing through the whole thing again. Some of the side missions are absolutely incredible to witness visually and story wise. One tip for the witcher 3 is there's an alternate control mode that makes it feel less wonky in the settings menu.I tried playing the Witcher a few times and couldn't ever get into it. I hated the controls, combat, etc. I found the Witcher 2 to be tedious and never made it much further than the tutorial. I own the Witcher III but I've never played it. I think I picked up the first two games on some sale and the third one came with a video card I bought if I recall correctly.
I understand where you’re coming from but I’m excited. I’ve been looking for a reason to replay this. I’m excited for all of it but especially Hearts of Stone.disappointing that the ray-tracing update will be delivered via a patch on PC...I wanted a new version (exe) of the game...a complete ground up rebuild of the game with ray-tracing like with Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition...CDPR had to take control of the development for this new update a few months back as they were not happy with the 3rd party studios work on it...I'm not sure this is going to be as amazing as people are hoping...it'll be an improvement but probably not a huge one

Best part of the game IMO, that story is wild.I understand where you’re coming from but I’m excited. I’ve been looking for a reason to replay this. I’m excited for all of it but especially Hearts of Stone.
I honestly didn't mind the combat in the third game but I can agree it's... wonky. It's definitely not like valheim or something where you expect to have some fine tune control though. If you still want to give it a run through, try out this mod that modifies the combat heavily to make it more like what they demo'd before release: https://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/4525?tab=descriptionI tried playing the Witcher a few times and couldn't ever get into it.

The Witcher 3 is definitely a button masher if you specialize in melee combat. If you try to be strategic in the harder difficulties with nothing but melee, you're going to have a bad time.I honestly didn't mind the combat in the third game but I can agree it's... wonky.

Whirl and crit that scales. MmmmThe Witcher 3 is definitely a button masher if you specialize in melee combat. If you try to be strategic in the harder difficulties with nothing but melee, you're going to have a bad time.
The textures and models look better than the base game on PC, to me. The ray tracing in the day/night cycle they show is also apparent.Does that really look better than what we have now with the PC version? Is this just a console version update?
FWIW, I have no mods on mine (in the screenshot above) and didn't play with any in my play through.The textures and models look better than the base game on PC, to me. The ray tracing in the day/night cycle they show is also apparent.
People should go back and play the game without mods lest their opinion be skewed with what we're getting.
2600K @ 4.5Ghz and a GTX670 w/1080p/60. My shit was smoking playing this! Also time for me to have a rematch.Last time I played this game it was with a Titan X Maxwell and a Xeon at 2Ghz and a 60Hz monitor.
I think its time to give this another play through...
Is this on PC? In my mind this was a game I played without HDR because it wasn’t available, but now I’m doubting myself. I guess I need to fire the game up tonight and see.It’s worth trying this game again even before the remaster update if you’ve got an LG OLED with HDR now. It was updated for HDR somewhere along the way and it really adds a lot to the game in current form.
Picture with my iPhone of the game with HDR on my LG 42” C2 OLED.

I mean I don't think they are doing that to puff up PC or crap on the consoles, it is just resources. The current gen consoles aren't bad, but they are miderange GPUs at best and they are AMD which doesn't have any ray tracing acceleration so it hits even harder than it would on an nVidia chip. RT is just heavy hitting stuff, we are just at the edge of it being feasible for realtime.so PS5 and Series X get RT Global Illumination and Ambient Occlusion while PC users get those along with RT reflections and shadows!...nice that the full ray-tracing feature set is exclusive to PC!
