Hi
2 questions, who have ps4 version the free update is via a patch or a free copy of the game? and the people with the normal version with expantion pass like me? Can cd projekt red clarify this.

As much fun as that could be, I wager the REDs will most probably limit their update to technical bugs, optimisation, and graphics. I wouldn't set my hopes too high for new content -- though, privately, I'd gladly be proven wrong.
While I know that was a bit of a pooper after his role in TW2, I think the general gist of it was that he didn't really factor into the arc of TW3 in any meaningful way. Any inclusion would have felt like it was "tacked on". I think that's why it was originally cut. No way to do it justice meaningfully.
I don't think this upgrade's gonna be for me when I can't even run the current version anywhere near max settings. 
Ay, that's my understanding as well. To reinstate him would probably require reworking the story. Rather unlikely, I fear.
What does that have to do with the witcher 3 looking worse? All of those games are released by companies worth billions of dollars, with 10/100 times more people working on those,that cost now more and also are released later. Of course a game released in 2018 by Rockstar Games is going to look better than a game released in 2015 by a smaller studio, with only 1 hq
Dude , you already bought the 2015 version of the game if your game runs on your pc at 30 fps is your fault not cdpr, you will get a free update for the next gen GPU and you still complain... they already said is free and the performance in the og tw3 is already great with my 1060... you are beeing a little bit rude

AWESOME! Thank you so much CDPR! I was really hoping we would see an enhanced edition!
Would this happen to include improved LOD distances or a slider to increase them? Even on max settings on PC there is a lot of low detail buildings, textures and other assets only a short distance away, which really hurts the visual experience.

I think you'd want to have it installed on an SSD if you don't want to see performance drop. They probably reduced duplicate assets on the remaster, reducing game files and loading times.

Looking at the PS5 and Xbox specs, I don't think you have to be too worried.
Will save games for the previous edition be Compatible with the upgraded version for PC?
Theres this option on Steam to delete certain DLC's you don't want. I'm also assuming the update is optional and you can install and uninstall at anytime.
I wouldn't mind the 20-30 frame drop since my hardware is able to run the game on the highest settings
This news made my day... no, my week.. nah, my month! Add DLSS 2.0 to the mix and I’ll be an even happier boy Some small gameplay improvements would be very welcome as well.

I hope CDPR will also use this opportunity to fix some bugs. There are not that many of them (at least that I'm still noticing), but I think that everyone would appreciate improving horse riding, stopping Geralt from rolling down some stairs, the issue with level scaling of some monsters (rats...) and a few other tweaks.
I think that expecting CDPR to release new content would be unreasonable, but I'm really hoping for one more solid polish pass.

It sounds more like you'll have two seperate games in the launcher - one for the original, and one for the reworked edition - so you should be golden.
The thing is, Witcher 3 already looks like a next gen title. In fact, Witcher 2 still looks gorgeous till this moment. But my speculation that this is the point anyway. To sort of getting experience of dealing with new hardware with an already next gen looking game. So I am not really putting much weight on this one in terms of visual enhancement etc... But ultimately, though it's not always the case, "I know it when I see it".
What will really make a huge difference is a remaster of W1. But I guess that it will take a huge effort and resources to make such thing. Something like the remaster of Mafia or Gears of War. These two titles, especially Mafia, can be distinguished from each other in a blink of an eye when compared side by side. I simply didn't have to thoroughly look at the two sides or at the title at each side to know which is old and which is new. But to reach this level of remastering while being busy with Cyberpunk is too demanding. Anyway I look forward to next Witcher content.

SSDs will not affect performance, as in FPS; they will only affect the time it takes to load from the menu into the game or from, say, Velen into Skellige. Any time you encounter a loading screen, the time will be cut down exponentially.
Just like any gaming technology, a console's graphical performance is based on its GPU and CPU.
