Burning Village higher res pic

Hey guys, so EDGE just released the burning village picture in 720p, now you can see the details more clearly.

God fuckin' yes! This is my favourite screenshot they released, looks bloody amazing.

Ouch, I see someone running who is on fire. :S

Wow, things must have gone really bad from this:

Well, seems they listened to the feedback that said the previous screenshots were aliased and released a downsampled one... no trace of aliasing here. I do wonder what all that subpixel detail (the grass! the grass!) will look like when running this natively without anti-aliasing... because rendering that + temporal AA is going to kill a lot of GPUs.

It looks great, though!

Yes, it seems that fire is concequence of one Geralt's choice... />

And not oversharpened! Finally!

Looks incredible. There's a dude on fire on the left, he's been engulfed by the flames.

Pardon my ignorance, but is his sword serrated or what?

Looks quite painterly, lots of nuances and depth, but I'll reserve my comments for when I get to watch some footage.

We had similar ones in Witcher 2.

Damn chickens.

Interesting quote:

Skyrim, which I think we all love, is a rather short game in terms of the main storyline,” he told us. “If you just want to focus on that element and you’re not that interested in exploring the world, it’s not that big. But that’s the core of The Witcher 3: the main story. It’s 40, 50 hours, plus the open world.”

The real issue is that Geralt's scabbard isn't attached to anything!

or is it? I can't really tell from this angle.

 

[sn00p.156]

The real real issue is that we don't have the screens on 1080 yet.

The only thing bugging me is...Why does Geralt have hair and ponytail on the upper part of his head yet the lower is...buzz/baldish?

 

[sn00p.156]

I like this guy from screen, the other one seems to be busy burning up, and this one...well

Does anyone else see the similarity?

I'm gonna need a bigger GPU.

 

[Daywalker30]

looks incredible, especially the fire and smoke.

I think its cool, There was a similar haircut in TW2 too.

I'm recalling how hard it was for my PC to run burning Vizima. This is going to melt some graphics cards.
