What a shame to see a patch lower the performance of both versions. How very unusual!

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Someone sure goofed! I remember something similar happening with Rockstar and GTA V where they sent out a patch that made the game look worse in various areas on ps4/x1 which later got fixed so I am assuming its a similar issue

CDproject are the worst devolopers i have ever seen, they dont deserve any money imo. Why even patch the game if you make it worse?

Really? The worst?

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Well, thats lame.

I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime.

The NX will be a 900p machine

If it gets rid of the distant fog and pop in of the last update, I say YEAH! I do not care about a few framerate drops.

The PS5 Exists.

The worst. All this free DLC is a joke. I cannot believe they would include a patch that is optional to download with a lot of new content! They definitely don't deserve my money but I can tell you something mister!! My money will be going to an incomplete Shenmue 3 game to cover the development costs so they don't lose a single penny on it!!

Yeah, I don't think they were quite ready to release on consoles when it comes to performance - PC version, while benefited from patches, is perfectly fine from day one in that aspect.

They should've just dropped resolution on both PS4 and XBO.

XB1 runs fine before 1.07 though.
