The Witcher 3 - Visuals

[tahirahmed]

The game has dynamic day and night cycle, clouds make a lot of difference in lighting and several other reasons so it's impossible to produce same lighting in every screenshot and the wood and stone wall textures actually look better in new screenshot.

You can also see that in the new screenshot, you have a huge opening in the background while in the old screenshot, it's a deep narrow passage so all that bloomy and bleeding light makes sense there.

Don't know how to feel about this, it looks like generic western/jrpg game, no more Easter-european grit

Hello again buddy! Long time no see. How about this one, is it gritty enough? It's even noon there, if you look at the time of day indicator. So you know, let's not do the opposite of cherry picking and compare a freaking swamp to a meadow (Or did you forget the contrast between Murky Waters and the Swamps?)

I see two completely different areas during completely different times of day. Should I not expect it to look... completely different?

O dear... this again... comparing screenshots from different angles, daytime, locations...different settings...

looks like blue filter not night, can't be night pic is too bright

 

[arkhenon]

I said "noon", where did you get "night" from that?

Also, you didn't reply to the actual argument there. Is that gritty enough?

 

[Kinley]

I dunno man, Witcher 3 just isn't the same as Witcher 1. Just look at the picture. The feel is totally different.

/sarcasm

 

[Dantoki]

>using as example area which role was to break dark atmosphere of rest and make player relaxed

>implying the area you showed doesn't serve the same role.

How could you know otherwise?

Oh c'mon.... I vividly remember fighting some monsters in these lovely fields...

 

[Kinley]

Oh c'mon.... I vividly remember fighting some monsters in these lovely fields...

You mean you wouldn't want to "relax" with this lovely lady?

 

[arkhenon]

Well, at this point it became funny again You are trying too hard mate, let this one go.

 

[Riven-Twain]

That top shot is much gritty and edgy. That bottom shot must be Hello Kitty Adventure?

Well I would like to know if there truly is a location looking exact like the second screenshot.. This is just mind blowing !

Well, these are two very different areas in different lighting conditions, what should it prove, it actually just shows the diversity in the game world.

Also, what's up with the ultra low res upper shot? I can't even read the text.
