Oh I'm so mad. CDPR are masters of telling you their giving you a good deal, which they do and more, only problem is they fuck it to fuck right away and say we'll patch it later. This is an instant downgrade and a failure like when the map had frame pacing issues on release. I'm infuriated they'd release this. Title of the thread stands. This is not good despite the really shiny good looking visuals. I'm sat watching Geralt in the night and it looks fantastic but I have to have terrible frame rate every time I do anything. Like fuck.

In good news, Nighttime looks amazing compared, it is the best comparison, it really makes a big ass leap and looks better than most games released today.

Alas, idk what to do. Wait for a patch or... fuck, I have no DL for the next gen patch. Fuck me.

It was discussed by multiple people whom I thought were knowledgeable. I'm just happy they were wrong. Idk if The Witcher 4 will release on PS5/XSX, they'll probably face another Cyberpunk situation and want to avoid ... although, UE5 plus a good team can work wonders so I guess we'll see. Maybe they know they can do it with UE5. I also suspect TW4 to be smaller in scale than TW3 but here I am rambling as the youtubers I listened to saying the remaster would be 30fps. I guess time will tell us. 

I doubt it'll be another Cyberpunk situation since all the negative press and Sony outright pulling the game from the PlayStation Store for a while will have hurt a good deal so they'll wanna avoid that happening again. At worst it'll be 30fps and have poor image quality but still function ok overall. In general late releases for the PS5 should hold up a fair amount better compared to late releases on the PS4.

Look at what they just done right now, broke a working game. Not fully broke it but bad enough to make a dedicated player recoil. They are the best and worst of devs. 



Oh nope. It gets worse. The frame pacing is random. For fuck sake on a bike.



My disappointed is immeasurable and my day is ruined as once a great man said.



Also, they changed the side quests signs to something stupid and unnoticeable.

Asides from the BS of it. I have two pluses, Death March is hard again and the combat feels better as well as movement, more weighty but I'm still pissed off. There is no excuse for frame pacing. This feels like the map on the original release at times and I absolutely hate that it's random. I could have forgiven if it was just after dialogue or loading but not in the middle of a fight.



Sony wants me to give them my ID or facial scan to upload videos but first pug I've encountered in this game since it was on PS4 OG, like 700 hours ago where enemies float above the ground and multiple fights too. This has been so disappointing. Also the fact that Sony want my picture and ID too to share this issue.

The I.D. Request will be due to some online safety act. Are you in the UK?

The next island over. I didn't think that would hit the EU. :(

What made you think it was gonna be 30fps only? Almost every game on the PS5 has a 60fps mode so of course an updated version of a 2015 game will have that too. The Witcher 4 on the other hand might be so demanding it'll be 30fps only and like GTA 6 I hope it does end up pushing the current gen consoles that hard.

The early gameplay demo for The Witcher IV ran in 60 FPS though. It might not be indicative of the final game, but it's what we've got so far.
