I am not hyped at all because it is a PC exclusive. Now when it gets a release date on 360 or PS3 I will start getting

 

Its probably better if this game does NOT get toned down to remain equal with the consoles. Besides 360/ps3 are already getting their fair share of RPGS this year.

It's definitely better if it doesn't get picked up for consoles, because that means that CD Projekt will continue to spend all their time and resources into making the best PC games available, instead of having to waste money and valuable time to port and redesign for consoles.

Just look what Dragon Age 2 and Crysis 2 did to the PC versions when their engine was built around consoles.

Also look at how their gameplay magically turned to crap. Though to be fair, Crysis already had pretty bland gameplay to beginw with.

if it comes to consoles, i hope it is 100% outsourced. 

I want them working on the next game and/or DLC stuff, expansions for this game.

I don't want 1 second spend on porting it to any console.  easy enough to sell it to a company and say "you make this on the console"

so many great games get ruined when they shift to the console.

Well you do not build for the consoles then you sell less and there is less buzz and money to the developers.

And to say 360/PS3 is getting there share of RPG games this year is just dumb. Is there a quota now? Really? Well TC asked about the hype and I guess I can speak for many non PC gamers when I say "There is none here"

I guess I should jump in the countless of 360 and PS3 threads and mention that there is no hype for games that are dumbed down versions of the PC genre, right?

You can be hyped for games that are coming to platforms you don't own, hell I am hyped for a tone of console only games that I have no way of playing. and that is why I plan to get a PS3 eventually. Only a really close minded person only gets exited for games on platforms they already own...

But it's so unrealistic and blinding. I mean in the first pic it looks like Geralt is a light bulb or something, I really hope you can turn it down/off

I can't stop watching gameplay, please somebody make time go faster.. This will IMO be game of the year especially if the story is even half what the first one was. The combat seems easier, but at the same time more fluent, I just hope it gets alot more difficult later on. the way you can setup traps and use extremely fun strategic plans is excellent and the variety from what I have seen, especially the multi person finishers is mind-blowing.. Again, make time go faster damnit.
