One of those games I have a hard time to finish due to its length and my busy life. A switch version would help me finish the game finally lol. 😂

I agree that it's pretty impressive to have this game run on a portable. However for me at least there's too many comprises to make it worth buying. Also the same reason why I didn't pick up Doom for Switch yet.

Neonridr1642d ago

I think Doom has far less compromises in comparison though.

MasterCornholio1642d ago

Well the biggest one for me is the drop to 30FPS.

Neonridr1642d ago

@MasterCornholio - yep, fair enough. I just think that aside from a drop in resolution and the frame rate, Doom is largely more in tact. at least it's a pretty stable 30fps. Witcher still bounces around a little.

"they have had to use some kind of black magic to get it to work on the Nintendo Switch"

I never would have thought Switch would have Witcher 3. Praise to CD Projekt Red for not backing away from the challenge and delivering one of the greatest games ever crafted to more gamers.

They did a fantastic job when bringing over Witcher 2 to 360 as well.

The Witcher 4 Won't Be "Witcher 3 in New Clothing," CDPR Adding New Gameplay Elements and Mechanics

CDPR says that players shouldn't expect The Witcher 4 to be "Witcher 3 in new clothing," as the studio is adding new gameplay elements in it.

Improve the combat and you got an instant classic.

What’s wrong with the combat?

anast16d ago

Nothing for when it was made. It's time to upgrade.

sagapo15d ago

disagrees for asking a question, nice...

Flawlessmic16d ago

Dragons dogma 2 style combat, would be dope.

Friendlygamer16d ago

It played like a bootleg ac game. It was pretty poor even back when it released

anast16d ago

I didn't think it was as bad as the semi QT AC games.

Friendlygamer16d ago

At least ac had some cinematic flair to hide how braindead it was

bionicstar16d ago

They should have a party system with turn based combat

People will riot!

I'd love it but people will riot

CDPR will lose like 99% of its audience.

It could be a fun experiment for the internet's shits and giggles.

Nier Automata is not on the list?
MegaMan X?

TheEnigma31397d ago

Where is Castlevania SotN? By far 1 of the best ever soundtracks

Terry_B97d ago (Edited 97d ago )

A good list that covers a good variation of different types of video game music needs to have at least a minimum of 25 different games.

There in the list are just 9. And only one of them is from a game older than 10 years. Most of them were released in the last 3 years I think.

Its a shitty list actually..with a shitty headline and a shitty image with zelda, god of war and street fighter while none of them is discussed in the list.

esportdriven.com is now on my list..the list of shitty vg sites.

CD Projekt has several projects in the works that are all "at different stages"

From GameWatcher: "Michał Platkow-Gilewski, VP of PR and Communications at CD Projekt, has publicly recognised the turbulent release of Cyberpunk 2077. He attributed the admittedly troubled launch to extreme pressures, elevated expectations, and grueling crunch times, leading to a game that was not ready for release.

However, in light of the backlash his team experienced following Cyberpunk's debut, Platkow-Gilewski confirms that the team is now in a good place, effectively managing the negative aftermath and looking forward to the future. "I'm good. Actually... I think I'm great, to be honest."

I can't wait to see what CP2.

Sniperwithacause294d ago

Meaning some are still on the drawing board, and others are still in the brain. Ok, so we'll get two new games every 8-10 years right?
