You are making most of these facts up. You have no idea what the average PC is capable running nowadays so stop assuming that they couldn't play this game as it looked. You are also ignoring the simple option of graphics settings. Can't run at ultra? Try low settings then. 

Again, assuming that a) few high end gamers exist (which is wrong b) you have to be high end to play it how it was (even though I have said otherwise). You are now just making things up to justify why a brand new game should look pants.


I'd assume he has an idea. Actually we know what  an average PC would do, since Steam publish this data. You'd be surprised about the results.

Steam has a lot of very low end PC owners on it. Hell, some people are still using Windows XP. A better indicication are gpu sales and then if you look at high end game surveys e.g Star Citizen. The majority of people in that game are (500k) running with top end i5's or i7's, and enthusiast graphics cards. Combine this with the magic of graphics options and you can cater for all users. To cap the high graphics so much smacks of a broken engine....which lets be honest, is highly likely considering how bad the Witcher 2 engine was for performance.
