Do ppl understand what demo and beta builds even mean ? Theyre not final. If they downgraded the graphics Im pretty sure they had a reason for it, this game is massive for a game like this to even run some compromises have to be made. Also the fact that it is beeing simultaneously released on 3 plataforms probably means the devs cant focus on PC only and optmizing it to no ends for that 1 plataform, they dont have the time. Seriously you guys gona give CD Projekt a hard time because they had the oportunity to hit big with an awesome game reaching a very wide amount of ppl and had to make a few graphics compromises to achieve that ? The game still looks awesome, and acording to reviews play even more awesome, stop whinning about it.

Feel free, its one fo the best games ever made acording to anyone lucky enought to get theyre hands on this game early, and if PC ppl boycot it maybe they go exclusive to consoles next and no one will have to listen to all this crying about downgrades anymore, we will be lfet with just the PS4 x XOne resolution crap, wich is also anoying as heck but at least is only 1 anoyance rather than having to listen to that and the PC crowd cryes of downgrade at the same time.

Meh. Got it free with my GPU so as long as I can run it at 60fps I can't complain if there's been any downgrades.  But like they said, it's probably just that the video wasn't an accurate representation.

So they lied to the consumer with false PR demos. 

That is still terrible and I won't support a studio who just lie.

Also, th Witcher 2 had great graphics for the time (albeit a power hungry engine) so why the change? Oh right, all they want is more money from a bigger market rather than delivering a quality product. Well this liitle studio is certainly acting like the big ones with such a dire attitude.

Yeah that makes sense.... to spend more time optimising the game for the market that they are getting the most money from... X1/PS4/Mid-range PC's.

What are you complaining about? That they didnt spend the time making the entire game look like the original trailer for the minority of gamers who would have been able to run it like that? why would they do that? Their jobs and future games are not reliant on the approval of the minority.

When did downgrading = optimising?

Optimising would be to give PC users the actual high end versio they showed last summer and consoles the current version. Also a mid range PC will run this game at an easy 60fps 1080p so what you mean is low end pcs. This is why I complain - the majority of pc owners are getting stuck with low end games for yet another generation and it is due to lazy developers who don't know what option settings are in a game engine. Hell, the new consoles were even made to make porting to PCs easy and allow for option boosts. There is no excuse nowadays for a bad pc port.

There is a myth out there that anything that looks great must run on some multi $1000 dollar machine. That is simply wrong. A very good gpu only costs about £120 now (a gpu at least x2 more powerful tahn the ps4), and a very high end gpu costs £220. So in short, a cheap pc will run rings around any game at 1080p and has done so for years. 

normaly betas and demos look worse than at release---

and better hope it will not go console exclusive.

I've heard that the story is great so who cares about another fps more or less...
Tsss... you call yourself 'gamer'...

CD Projekt is a respected company but well always need to be cautious what these companies do. I hope the release a patch like they did for Witcher 2, a Ultra high resolution patch.

After what you said about low and mid range PC's, you have even less of a reason to complain.

If they are getting a better product than the gamers who will be generating more revenue (consoles), then theres no question of a bad port.

I may be wrong, but I believe the PC version was the lead platform.

Back to the point, the downgrade issue was about the trailer they initially showed and yes, it would require a $1000+ PC to run it like that, so im glad they didnt bother with that for the minority who need to justify how much they paid for their PC, and instead cared more about the consoles and low/mid range PC's.

You guys sound crazy. I saw, some PC 60FPS footage and it looked amazing.
