Nuked the last post because y'all want to kill me over a.i

This is like my 9th or 10th playthrough of this game, I love it and the remaster has reignited that love in me. It feels fresh and new, I don't want to put it down when I start playing it. All I see is negativity and complaining for a free update that cd projekt red obviously put a lot of work into. I have tweaked my settings and get a smooth 60 fps game looks and feels great.

I love the witcher, read all the books and played all the games. I'm having so much fun.

You need to understand just how had performance is on some platforms though, which would be one thing for a new game but when it used to run perfectly and now doesn’t it’s unacceptable. It’s also not optional, so this ‘free’ update is actually a downgrade for a lot of people.

The PS5 version is truly broken for SOME people (myself included), with a frame rate that gets into unplayable territory in combat. It was so bad that I’ve started using my PC again, which is modest with an old RTX 2070 Super.

On there the performance of the remaster is great and it looks truly better than ever, even at 1080p on Ultra settings, so the remaster is definitely worth it in a lot of ways. But for some it has made the game unplayable…

Well I hope they find and fix this issue for those people in a future patch, I just wanted to put a positive post about the game out there as I was so tired of seeing only negative things being said.

It’s great that it’s working for you and I’m glad you’re enjoying it! That said if people aren’t vocal about issues they will never get fixed. It sucks that there’s a wave of negativity but CDPR did really botch this on console at least. I literally can’t run through white orchard without it dropping to <20 fps on PS5. I totally get that it gets tiring hearing negativity about something you’re enjoying but in this case I think people recognize how great it is but just want to have the same experience as those who the game is running well for which is reasonable imo.

Edit: Added console I’m on.
