Witcher 3 Graphics

[Sard Edit: NO PLATFORM WARS. Debate graphics, not platform prejudices. If you talk platforms, talk hardware, software. Not downgrading, not treasons, not lies, not "kids" or "Master Race crap."

Pony Of Warning:



Then again with all the performance issues threads, I am not sure how well the "old" awesome graphics would've worked.

A ultra high budget corridor simulator where almost all lighting is prebaked that is exclusive usually have nice graphics, but then again i really don't like all those filters it has.
 
To be honest I just think the people complaining have a point, but only and very specific things, such as chimney smoke, reflections, foliage and SOME textures. Though with any luck, CDPR will release those things as a separate free dlc, or at least release the assets to modders.

and, continuing the honesty theme, I also think most of the people comparing the game to the witcher 2 have been spoilt by ubersampling, and perhaps forget what the game looks like without it. dont get me wrong, witcher 2 is gorgeous, but I never enabled ubersampling for my recent playthrough, and I saw similar flaws to what I see in TW3...flaws that are (mostly) fixed incidentally, in screenshots taken using 4k DSR by Nvidia.

In other words, the game WILL be prettier than TW2. When it has been out for a while, as the engine will allow its limits to be pushed further. In the meantime, enjoy not running into invisible walls everywhere and being able to jump. I certainly am ;)
 
well the anamation in The withcer 3 kills the witcher 2. yeah there are somethings that I hope will get patched or modded back to the 2013/2014 level but I'm happy with the way it looks right now.

done. period. tw2 > tw3. tw3 is from 2002. I'd say tw1 is better. albeit with worse lighting.

The upper screenshot is modified. Atleast not a normal Screenshot. Name a source for the Screenshot and how it was made. I mean you just took the best game shot you could find of TW2 and compared it to a random screenshot from TW3. o_O
I can mod Morrowind to look better than a unmodded version of Skyrim. Is that a fair comparison? No.

Im disappointet with the Grafics yet too. The Patched Screenshots looked way better. On my System with everything Ultra i cant see any difference with the patch. Textures are sometimes slushy. The gras is almost ugly, AA dont do much ectect.

From Visual Point, no...this Game isnt a chindroper yet. Maybe it changes after the prologue...?

I'm also very curious on where that TW2 "screenshot" originated. It doesn't match any location I can think of (except possibly somewhere in Lilies and Vipers? Even then, I can't place it)
 
People are probably talking mainly about the foliage which is really bad. Even Crysis 1 had better foliage. Witcher 2 had better visuals overall.

Look carefully the example that was posted. http://puu.sh/hSqTv/1f08439987.jpg

Except the bloom, the foliage and the graphics on Gerald, the armor, details on the gloves, its amazing. Witcher 3 is a good game. but it has mediocre visuals. Horrible NPC visuals, not just bad... horrible!
The atmosphere is good, but that is done with the POST Process settings only. If you remove those, you will see the graphics level more clearly.
Anyways. Mods will hopefully come.

Yes the foliage is ugly. Cant understand why this is. Slushy textures, weak colours..dont look realistic at all :(

ultra tw2. unmodded. from my pc just now. bettertextures, better view, better foliage. the only thing worse are cutscene faces. and maybe lighting. the textures in tw3 and thedistance in tw3 is like a blurred painting- dreadful

the above screenshot makes tw3 look like trash. http://i.imgur.com/V5GrtnZ.jpg

Wrong, you can't compare the two games, W2 was not a dynamic Open World that is much larger than Skyrim. Secondly, W2 didn't have dynamic weather effects time of day visuals etc and many other effects seen in the W3.
