I propose 2024 is the year of early access games boycott.

Bring back completed games only.

I did witcher 3 like 3 years ago. What a great time I had. My previous PC was barely mid tier in 2012. When I built a new one in 2019 it was a piece of cake to run in an ultra wide monitor with cranked settings.

    I upgraded my PC in Oktober with a RX 7600, enough for older games, silent and efficient. I really looked forward to enjoy Witcher 3 at highest settings. A few days later rumors about Witcher 3 Next Gen. How dare they! Now I can't push every single slider to max and enjoy 120fps!

    In all seriousness: The update is great of course and I applaud CD Project Red for releasing it free. Besides the better graphics (Which even the 7600 can handle at Full HD without high RT settings) they also included tons of fixes and quality of live improvements the community made over the time. I can really recommend it.

    I even bought it at full price years before I played it because I enjoyed Witcher 2 so much and was certain they will make a good game.

    What's hilarious about this is I was previously using a community mod that did all this already. The official update fucked my performance so hard I rolled it back. I couldn't really tell a difference. They later fixed it but it does run worse still than the mod version.

    I ran it on a mid range business machine from 2014 with mostly mild upgrades and a 1060 6GB. I've since upgraded everything but the GPU, need to have another stab but I keep playing CS2 instead. When I'm not playing that it's TOTK on the Switch.
