Selfishly, I have to say that this really, really sucks.

All of the improvements that he talked about only apply to a console adaptation, not the PC version. As he kept referring to the console version versus the PC I couldn't help but think of Will Smith's line in Men in Black, "Old and Busted, New Hotness" (or something like that).

Also on that same selfish note I was really hoping a sequel was in the works. :(

But, I can't really blame them for putting the PC on the back burner and going the console route.

Oh shush your tongue and idle those fingers! :P The two platforms are too distinct from each other, one can very rarely simply be superimposed over another successfully, and I would hate to see a universe as brilliant as The Witcher tarnished by a competent but not-quite-there port :( The Wticher is better than merely 'adequate' and the gaming industry in general has a nearly perfect failure rate for ports, as far as I've experienced. Do not want that to happen to TW *pout*
A parallel development, now I can certainly live with that :D

But this is CDPR, so I have faith that whatever is done, will be done with the highest of intentions and ultimate quality, so nothing to worry about regardless of whether there's a port or parallel development :)

And there's pretty much no way for me to turn this into an on-topic post after rambling like that :D ... although whilst I really like Petra Silie's idea that more and more of the wall may crumble, I dread the thought of being sucked in by another cruel hunt at 1.30 in the morning! :D

No need to hunt, there's new hole at www.thewitcher.com. The subtitle has changed as well.

No hunt... but again, just as I'm about to go to bed :D Someone has epic timing! :)

:hmmm: You're right, M i k e, the caption thingie has changed



Exciting :)

yay, looks like a sword to me....

The console version is on the way:


I`m not too happy about it, becouse (as always) console version will be vastly improved over PC one.

I wish I could see this video with french subtitle, I don't get everything that is said, except that perhaps the combat system has been improved for the consoles...

Anyway, as for the hunt, could it be related to that special thing that Benedykt Szneider and Lukasz Kratynski are said to be preparing? You could find the info on the profile of Lukasz, the one you can find in the post on PanKarol's Blog about the Marketing Team (his profile is the last one).

Maybe they will publish new, Enhanced Enhanced Version  :D
But, all in all it kinda sucks that the console version wil be better..they could release some addons,
not the graphic ones, but those which affect storyline, your decisions..
Sometimes things were quite clear to me(player), but my character didnt know what to do.
And there was no way how to bypass it..this was quite frustrating.
Also, the "you-have-a-lot-of-possiilities" system was..hm..
the consequences could differ much more.
also i had impression that they were mostly based on what you said in 1 or 2 replicas(answers)..which is..well..better than nothing,
but the game has much bigger potential that that.
Maybe, it will be improved in W II, but if they are working on W I, and they are  improving it for the console,
they should do the same thing for the pc version. howgh  8)

Emotionally, I feel betrayed and abandoned when I see that all of the coolest new stuff will be for consoles; intellectually, I can't blame them, since that's where a lot of the market is.

But whipping up excitement among their PC players and then showing us that the excitement is for a console version ... that's just cruel.

I hope they won't forget us entirely.
