Yeah, cause that's the real problem. Not the lighting, AA, frame rate, draw distance and textures. It's all the slight elevations fault.

How?
>>341964338
They've already been corrupted.
Sure, on the surface they still seem based.
But then there's the downgrade, the refusal to release mod tools, the console pandering...

No downgrade will sting as bad as Dark Souls 2. This wasn't a bullshot. People played the game like this as a demo. Just at some point in development they stripped it bare to the point of looking way worse than even it's predecessor.
>>341964529
There was like a fucking 50 yard long bit on the left side where my 1070 was frame dropping to like 48fps.

Game looks like more fun than everything else shown this e3, I have no need to defend the graphics.
>>341964321
This is the correct answer. One of the worst of all time, arguably Rainbow Six Siege is worse.

>>still the best looking open world
>A F2P Korean MMO looks better
HA
>>341965026
Look, I'm actually hyped for the game, but it went through some downgrades. Zero parts of the game will actually end up looking like that initial reveal.
Alright, prepare some semi-shilling.
CDPR pretty much had to downgrade the game.
Otherwise they'd have released something that would run like UTTER garbage on 95% of all systems.
The game already runs like dogshit on consoles at 720p/30/low.
For what we saw in the trailers, you'd have needed SLI'd, OC'd Titan Xs for sub 30fps.
Does it defend the false advertising? Fuck no, it was scummy as hell.
>>341965026
Just answer me this. Are you retarded enough to believe the Wii U version will ever look like the top pic?
>>341964859
>>341964971
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5BsJ1TRMh8
Game looks great and has ton of detail. It can barely even run 60 fps in high res on SLI 980s as it is. What do you want?
>>341965270
NX baby stay mad famalamborghini
>>341965026
so what youre saying is that they first showed off the game looking like the top portion of that picture, purposely made the playable version shitty looking and then bring it back to look like how it did in the first reveal?
man, im looking forward to the game as much as the next nintendofaggot but god damn, is that some high tier delusion right there.
>>341965197
No surprise here, Ubishit always butchers their games with downgrades like that bullshit.
>>341965087
Yes, it was also in the first trailer they showed before the downgrade they made to meet console parity demands for certification.
>>341963743
Hey Thebull94 what's up? We found your CDPR forum account in the other thread.
>>341965547
The downgrade is way worse than you might think. That pic I posted doesn't do it justice, but I couldn't quickly find another one.
The E3 vs retail is more than a generation apart, in more ways than one.
>>341965578
Bull you wouldn't have even been able to play it on your PS4 if they didn't downgrade it.
>>341963743
Now is that really downgrading or just touched up bullshots?
I still love the fucking game and nothing you say can change my mind.
>>341965218
To be fair, they showed what the game looked like before it came out. It's not like obfuscated any indication of how it looked before anyone bought it.
I think that's about the best you can do when you realize you aimed higher than the commercial market can handle short of committing PR suicide.
From never released actual footage after downgrading and doesn't get a fraction of the heat and that is actual false advertising.
>>341965779
This.
I question whether the game could ever be in a playable state looking like that.
I mean, even developers only have access to GPUs that we do.
The super expensive cards don't actually run games better, and Witcher 3 sure as fuck isn't optimized for 4-way SLI.
>>341965779
>Now is that really downgrading or just touched up bullshots?
Literally what the fuck is the difference?
The downgrade is real and I'm loving every minute of it. Another Witcher thread wooo

The Siege downgrade is the worst because current consoles could handle those small maps with 10 times more details
>>341963743
This isn't even close to the worst downgrade, it's mostly just a change in direction.
Not to mention those were mostly bullshots
>>341966124
The pic isn't great as I said, but the downgrade is beyond obvious.
https://youtu.be/xNter0oEYxc?t=359 (starts at 6:00)
Watch that and even pretend to not see it, I dare you.
>>341966147
Yeah, Siege could look a lot better. It's weird because its a mix of a lot being changed for balancing issues (helicopter drop in and moving hostage, also the level of destruction was probably too high) but the visuals could still be vastly improved. The game just does not look great. Only the character models really look current gen.

witcher 3 in 6k.
look fine to me.
>>341965779
It's downgrading they wanted to do much more in the technical department but got bogged down because consoles were less powerful than they expected
>>341965398
>It can barely even run 60 fps in high res on SLI 980s as it is.
I haven't played the witcher 3 yet but god damn, just what type of rig do you need to play this game on medium settings?
>>341965957
Downgrading is toning down graphical specifications to meet the requirements of less powerful hardware the game is going to be released on to the detriment of other more powerful hardware that could run the game on much higher settings.
Bullshots is lying through promotional materials about what the game will look like across all platforms to convince the masses to buy it.
Witcher 3 can't be downgrading because the PC versions have settings that allow the graphics to surpass those of the console, which has inferior graphics to the PC version (not trying to start a fucking war here, that is just how it is.)
There is a difference in the terms. The problem is most of /v/ is full of a bunch of idiots who latch on to the first catchphrase that makes them sound cool to make them sound like they know what they are talking about when the criticize a game which in all likelihood they haven't actually played.
>>341964321
Is it technically a downgrade though?
I thought the top pic was just a screenshot from that trailer they released way back which was pretty clearly pre-rendered.
Not saying the bottom pic is remotely acceptable mind you, though I also wouldn't be shocked if the NX version is a way bigger upgrade in comparison.
>>341966778
Looks fine but doesn't really need 6k.
I'm going to be fucking murdered for saying this butThe Witcher 3 with better bosses and Dark Souls combat would be the best game ever made
>>341966829
970-980 if you want medium/high 60.
A 1070 with will get you 60/ultra/1080.
Even SLI'd 1080s can't run 60fps 4k.

>>341966035
>Not choosing Ravix of Fourhorn set

>>341964869
Toussaint is geographically as whimsical as the people in it who are constantly drunk and flamboyant. It's really aiming for high fantasy dreamscape and it nails that.
I think it's pretty nice.
>>341967117
The only card that can play it at 50-60fps at 1440p is a 1080.
If you have one, you'd be fine.
But you'd better have an overclocked CPU for the city areas.
>>341967193
>about to fight under a fake name
Despicable.
>>341967425
Fuck you Gerald.
>>341967365
Is the witcher 3 poorly optimized or is there a reason why it requires so much resources? Crysis required a ridiculous amount of resources but the game looking amazing for its time.
>>341967641
It's the density of foliage and how much it puts on the screen at one time.
It's actually very well optimized as it does a good job of not wasting resources on things that aren't viewable.
Games like Crysis or Kingdom Come Deliverance do look great within the comparatively small area they work within but if you expanded the fidelity of something like KCD to the size of TW3 we wouldn't have consumer PCs that could run it for probably another 10 years.
>>341967871
This.
Especially the main population hubs in the game.
People are always wondering why cities in games always feel empty or lifeless.
Turns out when you populate a city with enough NPCs and detail to avoid that, you end up need the highest tier GPUs and CPUs to render it.

bullshit unless they've done some crazy wizardry optimization in the last few monthes you wont be getting 60fps at ultra with a 970
>>341968418
And I 100% don't believe you.
There's not a benchmark in the world that has a 970 hitting consistent 60/1080p/ultra.
>>341968598
it runs max at 1080 60fps with nvidia hairworks off.

>>341968727
You mean it runs at mid 40-50s and hits 60 in the middle of nowhere.
>>341968934
no. it's constant 60 fps. Maybe in novigrad there's some fps drops.
>>341968972
I'm having serious trouble believing you.
Not only does it pretty much counter to every benchmark, but I've been running at 60 with a card that's nearly twice as powerful.
What's the rest of your setup?

>>341969171
>better cpu and ram dosnt do anything in the witcher.
That's some clear ignorance there friendo.
An overclocked CPU and fast ram actually pays off very well in W3, especially in towns and ESPECIALLY with older CPUs.
Sandy and Ivy Bridge i5s gain nearly 30fps from 2133 and 4.6 vs 1600 and stock clocks.
>>341967641
No, CD Projekt patches the game like a mofo.
It just has great graphics and tons of shit in it.
Downgrade or not, it's still, easily, the best looking open-world game.
For a GTX 970 at 1080p, you need to turn the foliage distance to high instead of Ultra to get 60fps. Turn off Hairworks, also. And you can turn down the shadows to Medium since it hardly makes a visual difference. Everything else can be maxed out. Although, the low sharpening setting looks better than the high setting... some people turn it off.
The asset streaming puts serious strain on the CPU, so you would stand to have a quad-core Intel or better.
>>341964859
and?
Whatever happened to "buyer beware"?
If you believe any of the advertising surrounding the game, I don't think the devs or publishers are the ones at fault.
>>341970071
People still trusted CDPR because they were ex-pirate underdogs.

The mod kit
Subsurface scattering
Forward lit soft particles
Semi volumetric clouds
Bokeh depth of field
Seems like a lot of the PBR they bragged about
Combat camera shake
Convincing and gratuitous pools of blood that 'realistically' floated on water
Subtle lens flares
Tessellated ground
Anamorphic lens flares
Flexible water simulation
Geralt's face was severely downgraded
In-game scenes like the Wild Hunt attacking the town and the introduction to the emperor of Niilfgard were changed to worse effect
Aerial perspective fog
Sign particle intensity was lowered
Many textures in Novigrad were downgraded
Volume based translucency
Many environment models in Novigrad
Interior lighting looks horrendous now
The bloom shader sucks, you can see how it was before in the wild hunt segment
Screen space reflections
The way drowners look was good and is really bad now

The reason anyone gets 60 fps on high settings in w3 is thanks to game being made to run on medium range hardware, or downgraded.
Whats the point of making a game that looks amazing if its like AC:Unity which majority of players wont be able to run well and thus wont enjoy untill they buy a 500euro gpu?
>>341971204
Top one was released by Nintendo. And there are STILL fans retarded enough to believe there hasn't been a downgrade. Like you.
>>341971337
Like you said its a matter of optimization. For TW3 they went for a console build. CDPR were perfectly awared of what they were doing for PC until console came up (they overestimated consoles most likely).

>>341971887
It's ran through several sharpening and contrast filters, to remove the blurriness and fadedness of the original pic, specifically to keep it from looking like the current build which has the same blurriness and fadedness.
And then there's the fact that they just cherrypicked a screen cap from a shitty stream of one of the worst looking areas.
Most other areas aren't as unflattering.

The Zelda downgrade isn't as significant as some make it out to be, but it is noticeable high up because the draw distance for extra things is pretty short on Wii U compared to the extreme draw distance of the original trailer - which was prerendered anyway and not actually indicative of final game graphics since it was mostly a proof of concept trailer.
Gotta realize that the Wii U is still just a slightly more stronger machine from the previous gen. Maybe the NX version will have more detail and better draw distance, but few games from the last generation could have both of those things and prey to stay consistent.

That's the thing, The original trailer is on the ground, all the "downgrade" pics are taken from up high.
If you took a screenshot from the ground, there'd be as much as grass as there is in the original.
>compared to the extreme draw distance of the original trailer
It's not that extreme. You can see where the grass ends by the well on the right of the image.
There were areas that had that much grass in the game awards 2015 presentation, the areas they showed in the E3 demos are different areas that don't have such tall grass so it's not really comparable.

I like the Witcher but I honestly don't think the graphics are a selling point, it looks acceptable, no more no less

Careful not to cut yourself with those screenshots. Best part is, it looks even worse in motion since every blade of grass moves.

You are putting words in my mouth, bucko.
Your "admit it" was said in reference to "the new zelda is not visually impressive".
A game can be visually impressive despite the fact that it was downgraded from its original version.
Take that attitude and stick it up your ass.

>Wow you changed the color balance? >Computers can't even run that
>Stop posting nice pictures and just take my word for it the game looks bad REE
>>341973016
Watch_Dogs was false advertising because they paraded the game as being real-time and an example of next-gen hardware. People have been bitching about the new Zelda's graphics ever since it was revealed it wouldn't be like the Twilight Princess-based tech demo, despite the fact that an entire game like Breath of the Wild with graphics like that would look even worse than what we have now.
It's not false advertising, since it never pretended to be real-time. We saw the footage off of that TV when Miyamoto was playing that year, and the game was nowhere near as developed as the trailer itself - and no one really complained about it then, instead waiting anxiously for the next bit of the new Zelda to come out. No one's falsely advertised here, especially since the new trailer represents the game fairly accurately and as what it shall be.
>>341973214
>I can't read
The entire conversation was about whether or not the downgrade happened. You deny it, and you are an objectively retarded shill.
>>341973275
True.
>>341973316
>I don't know what I posted, please fuck my face
You said, and I QUOTE
>but visually impressive the new Zelda is not, just admit it
Stop backpedaling and admit you are a retarded chucklefuck.
Just FYI, it takes two seconds of google search to verify that Aonuma claimed the 2014 trailer was running on the Wii U. Fact, there was a downgrade, other fact, it still looks great and fantastic in motion and actually like fun, unlike TES
>>341973381
Just admit it in relation to the conversation you dense fuck, aka whether or not there was a downgrade.
>>341973214
You think that the new Zelda game looks visually impressive?
>>341973091
>MUH AUTISM
LOL
>>341973478
>haha joke's on you this word actually did not mean what it would objectively mean in this sentence :^)
Learn to express yourself properly then, you numb nut. Your "admit it" was clearly referencing "zelda is not visually impressive". That's how sentences work.
I know you are just backpedaling because you realized you made a mistake but don't want to admit it, so I will stop responding to your pathetic bait now. Consider suicide.
>>341973518
Not the person you're responding to, but stylistically, yes.
There's a reason why Wind Waker aged better than Twilight Princess, and while some things like the cliffs/mountains will look ugly as sin because of their blown-up textures that you get to see up-close while climbing them, an art style in general can improve a game's visual spectacle significantly as well as potentially give it a more graceful aging period.

>>341973961
Where do you think you are, normie?
>>341973798
Impressively sad, isn't it?
People here need to learn to distinguish between a downgrade and false advertising. Nearly every game ever has been downgraded. Fact is, it's easier to build higher and downscale than to aim for the consumer hardware capable build.
The real problem is false advertising, or bullshots. Showing only the developer version running on workbench PCs and never showing what the game actually looks like before releasing.(Dark Souls 2/Watch Dogs.)
If the developer has material available to show you what the game looks like before you buy it and you don't like it then don't buy it. Feel free to disparage the graphics, but don't pretend that the developer in some say tried to cheat you like From and Ubisoft did.

wish i was a janitor sometimes desu
i bet 90% of the "le zelda is shit" posts are 4% of the posters in this thread
>>341974204
I can see just from the icon on the bottom left that "downgrade" pic is from multiplayer. Shit attempt.
>>341974086
Dark Souls 2 counts under false advertising, but it's a different case because it wasn't bullshots. There was a stress test beta of sorts before the game came out, which had the full lighting and everything from the game's trailers. However, Bandai Namco stripped out almost every ounce of that lighting with no warning, no statement, nothing at all before the game came out, claiming it was to stabilize the inconsistent framerate for a better play experience. Incidentally, it mostly rendered the much-advertised Torch useless except for select areas, since everything but the darkest of areas had a dull gray hue that was ambient and bright enough to see in anyway.
>>341974204
He never looked that shit in the game.
Get your lies outta here
>>341974205
Or how about the game looks shit you delusional manchild

Its just a different time of the day

>People still trusted CDPR because they were ex-pirate underdogs.
How mean the people who sued pirates when they realized TW2 was the most pirated game of all time and then backpedaled to make GoG so everyone would forget what they tried to do?
Oh yeah totally ex-pirate underdogs mate, I wish I was as gullible and retarded as you.
The power of Sony's lies...
>>341970405
What are you using to monitor the framerate? is it afterburner?

List of things that were removed/downgraded:
The mod kit
Subsurface scattering
Forward lit soft particles
Semi volumetric clouds
Bokeh depth of field
Seems like a lot of the PBR they bragged about
Combat camera shake
Convincing and gratuitous pools of blood that 'realistically' floated on water
Subtle lens flares
Tessellated ground
Anamorphic lens flares
Flexible water simulation
Geralt's face was severely downgraded
In-game scenes like the Wild Hunt attacking the town and the introduction to the emperor of Niilfgard were changed to worse effect
Aerial perspective fog
Sign particle intensity was lowered
Many textures in Novigrad were downgraded

There was a downgrade, but you've made your entire post moot with this.
>>341973798
If you don't think Nintendo is the last good company then you are the one objectively wrong. Nintendo is our pal and friend, they always try the best for their fans and you can't deal with that then you suck suck a dick sonynigger

Shut the fuck up you sonny fuck. None of those are true. Game looks GORGEOUS.
What about the level of detail magically dissapearing in the bottom pic?
>>341974204
>>341974870
>>341975697
whoa...
>>341975716
It disappears the higher up you are, something that wasn't shown in the top because it's on the ground
>>341975716
Well the game is not out yet, they going to fix that.
>>341975781
Yeah I said there was a downgrade. I'm saying that there's no point shitposting with exaggerated images on both sides, it gives the argument no favours.
>>341972860
Looks modded, probably is modded
You guys want to talk about downgrades?
>>341975695
Lol okay anon whatever you have to tell yourself to justify your irrational autistic hatred of a video game.
I don't get what this game did to you, fuck your crush or something?
>>341972151
yea well no, this isnt half life 2 and the engine got updated several times
>>341964902
I played the demo at comicon where you win a shirt beating the Mirror Knight. Beat him fast so I got to explore around afterwards, they just let me. The layout is what got me mostly like in the fallen giants when you go down the ladder towards trunk tower outside you have that really dark alley leading to the bastard sword. That was the hallway leading to Mirror knight in the demo and when fighting him there was no music just the storm and rain, it was atmospheric as fuck. Exploring after the fight though it was quite a big demo with mixtures of every area in the final game near enough. Lighting was perfect and it held a stable frame rate during the boss. I have no idea why they dropped it so badly it could have been perfect.
>>341964739
If you seriously expected more from a wii u game, or that the top pic would ever look the same then you're just fucking autistic.
>>341963857

Witcher thread again woooo
>>341975915
Most Reshades are about as much of a mod as changing the RGB settings of your color balance.
The Witcher has a lot of different color balance tweaks but this is a pretty far cry from how people have to rebuild Skyrim from the ground up to make it playable.
