Concerning the physical version of The Witcher 3

I just received my Collecters Edition, and am seeing that it has 4 discs for the game, does anyone know if I can just install all 4 discs and then not have to use them at all, or will I need to keep switching out discs?

You have to install with the 4 discs, EDIT: apparently you don't need a disc to play, even better!

Aye. The standard situation is that you install the game with all discs and then play with one of them. Though, in the case of The Witcher 2 you just had to use the discs to install, and then you were able to play the game without any disc inserted at all. If I remember correctly.

if its the pc version then you dont need a cd to run it but you have to install all 4 disc. if its a console version i think you need the disc since its using content from disk and offloads the disc with content from the hard drive on consoles

As has been stated, you do NOT need to keep a DVD in the drive for the PC version.

Ok, thanks guys. Theres supposed to be a file I download to be able to install the pre-launch made copies, right? anyone know where I can get it, I seem to be missing setup_the_witcher3_wild_hunt-3.bin, which I'm assuming is the file.

Yeah, I read that, but I don't think it's being installed automatically, unless I'm having a different problem, and I can't find one of these dedicated websites to download it from manually.
