Interestingly enough, the game runs flawlessly for me; except for the main quest XP-bug and the "sords and dumplings" - problem with the disappearing bodyguard. I've come to expect games of this complexity to be completely unplayable when released; and am actually
positively suprised by TW3 (says quite a lot about the state of the industry in general
)... nevertheless; i very much hope 1.05 will fix those.
Same here and I totally agree, game runs smooth, looks phenomenal, even thought I get less XP from some quests I am still levelling. Only problem I ran into is where I got stuck on Skellige as I failed to finish Byways murder quest. Had to go back to an older save about 10 levels lower. Honestly I don't mind, the game is so enjoyable that I could play it all over again if I had to. I don't get this hype, if the game is as broken in the way some of you say it is, how come that I have levelled from level 11 to level 22 in 5 days, I still haven't finished act II (about to though)? I recommend you to play Elder Scrolls Online for few weeks and then tell me if CDPR are doing such a bad job (for the record, ESO is a bug feast from hell).
Regarding the graphics, the graphics are very smooth, 35-45 FPS with everything on Ultra (except the hair thingy). My rig is 2 years old. EVGA 770 GTX, i7-3280 @ 3.60GHz, 16 GB ram, Win 8.1 64-bit.
Be patient, It's better to have a good patch that fixes things rather than done-in-hurry patch that breaks the game even more!
