You've not convinced me to have another go
Its a good game and a good story, but i can see how the slower pacing and push to wander around/explore/sidequest instead of beelining the plot might not be a recipe that some folk are into.
Which is fine, plenty of other games to play you shouldnt feel forced to play it if it isn't grabbing you.
My 15 year old loves it and is on his third playthrough. I'm still on my 1st time and come back to it every once in a while. Witcher 3, I've played three times though. Each to their own.

I feel it's one of those games that once it grabs you it doesn't let go until you've exhausted it. Epic story telling, setting and implementation.

Funny i couldnt get into the witcher series, which is odd because it's the type of setting i'd expect to get on with.
I have a feeling I would get into it, if i persisted, it just felt quite dull to start. Should just put aside a day and try again

the extended tutorial section is a fair bit longer than most games for sure, probably end up in the same hall of fame as the skyrim intro.
not sure how far into you've got but it's not a massive spoiler to suggest if you haven't gotten out of the snowy region yet then you might want to push through at least that far because that's when the majority of what the game has to offer really opens up.
Thanks mate, yes was in a snowy area, ill give it another bash
Make the first person a proper first person (rather than the third person that is still happening in the animations) and this game would be fab. I'm many, many hours in but I hate the controls. I can tell this was a console first type game.

Yeah, you are still in the tutorial section. It's basically a really long intro into the game. Once you leave that area and get settled in the next area, the whole game opens up.

I put it down for a while during that section. Picked it up again and couldn’t believe I didn’t persevere originally. An incredible game. You just need to push through the first bit.

For anyone still playing this game. What settings should I be using for highest quality picture? I recently upgraded my GPU so will be doing another play through.
Likely a silly question for most, but should I just be running at DLAA? or will DLSS or MSAA be the better options on this title?

Depends on your GPU and preferred frame rate, long as your using DLSS4 transformer model even performance mode @ 4K looks great imo

Anything over 100fps is good for me. Running a 5090/9800X3D
Should DLAA look better than both DLSS or MSAA in this title? from my testing MSAA looks sharper than DLSS and DLAA, but it causes some shimmering on tree branches. Maybe I have some settings wrong in the NVIDIA app/control panel.
