That keeps getting taken out of context.
Kuba was discussing how for the open world (16km of free roam) they had to reduce the quality of textures because-
They don’t say they are downgrading for Consoles but they cannot create the highest quality of textures they could make because they have to much area to cover and it would be allot for even gaming PC’s to handle.
We cannot forget they are not creating a world full of cells like Skyrim (enter building loading screen).
I have to disagree. It is not taken from context. But yes, the fact that it is open world game does play a role. But Kuba literaly says that “weaker PCs cannot not hadle it, especially consoles”.
So yes you are partialy right, but not entirely.
He says current not weaker, I watched the video several times an typed up each word individually (omitting only a few words).
The time stamping isn’t working right but he says it at 15:22
My mistake., still the meaning changes just a little
EDIT: on a second thought it does make a difference.
You see, this morning I woke up with a little monkey hanging over in my head, so I wrote first thing that came to my mind.
Still before I saw the video again I would have given anything that Kuba said “weaker” and not “current”.
Freud, Freud, what would you say to that.
Nope. Lying would be if they insited they did no change at all. They only did not inform about the change they have decided to do and even explained why they had to do it and apologized for not informing the customers earlier as they did not see it as an important issue. I guess in the future they might track what they show to public and if things are changed too much, explain it before release. Might be a good practice.
However if you realize how many things change during three years of development just imagine how hard it must be to track them all just in case you have shown them already to someone who might have problem with it.
Ok, but I would still not accuse them of lying. Lying looks differently.
People like me? I bought the game after the release based on reviews, gameplays and user comments. Isn’t that the best possible way to do it? In other words let yourself being convinced by the finished product?
The problem in the industry is exactly the oposite. Massive pre-ordering of games that are not finished based on footages very early in production or even pre-rendered trailers and lots of promises on top. That kinda takes the responsibility of the developer to convince you by the finished product, which means a game of lesser quality in the end. And these pre-ordering bonuses? Even seller specific bonuses. Really? That’s like collecting Gwent cards in Witcher. You get a deck and then you go around buying pieces. No thanks… And don’t get me started about the review embargos.
So I hope you can understand my Point of View a bit. I don’t care what was promised. I care only about what was delivered. And I am happy with it as it is.
I understand you are unhappy that the product is not as you were promised it to be. Then maybe you should reconsider your pre-ordering policy and decide after the release.
After all what can you do about developer’s decisions? Yep, vote with your wallet.
Nope you wrong it is 100% lying, Showing us something that they’re claiming is the game and then giving us something else is lying and false advertising.
Well you are free to believe that of course. The game is fare more complex than just hese couple of undelivered effects anyway. No point in bitchin’ about it really anymore.
Nice job replying 9 days later. I’m going to say this slowly for you alright? The reason many people including my self were angry about the downgrade is because we were lied to about, got it? They were not up front that a is a lie period.
I never said the game itself was bad i’m simply talking about the graphical downgrade.
Ah thanks, been bussy these days.
You’ve seem to have a very twisted view what is a lie and what is work in progress.
Repeat to yourself WORK IN PROGRESS. Anything can change to the release.
I would say the same about you.
they were showing the beefed up graphics until a day before the review copies were out. You’re a fan boy admit it.
Guys, don´t downgrade this thread 
Could you maybe close it? Its really getting rather tiresome teaching people what lying is.
Hmm… I don´t see the necessary of clothing this thread, but its yours, you started it and I can understand why you feel forced to answer in it. You don´t have to, maybe other people want to talk about this topic too. But I don´t think about this one, there is enough stuff going on around the whole internet about witcher 3 downgrade, and now as the E3 is here, this news is pretty old.
So yes, I will close it, because you as thread-starter wanted it and thread is not important.
