This is great as i was already mid playthrough so this should be fun, i have little to no mods and the ones that i have are texture mods on small things like the hunting knife and whatnot so i should be ok

brothers in arms bring quest fixes and stuff that is already in their bug fix list for the next gen update so there is no need , whilst Nitpickers fixed environement details  which i can only guess it saved them a s*** load of time and allowed the dev team to focus on other stuff, such as incorporating ray tracing etc

-its only my guess from looking at the files of what both mods do

yeah, thats really the only issue I have with Next Gen. It seems that they incorporated mods based on popularity/downloads, instead of quality. (not counting HDRP, that mod is essential)

Damn, I kinda hoped they would include FriendlyHUD. I could never play Witcher 3 without it.

[Apocalypses77]

No thanks! I don't want to see Nilfgaard armor from netflix. 
I don't want someone's negligent attitude to costumes in the series to defile this game with their presence.

Exciting news! I didn't have many mods on so just reinstalled the game in anticipation of this! :D

But it's sad that they haven't choosed to incoorperate BiA

I also wold like to know how many individual bugs they gonna fix on their own. Hope these get listed in the update log.

true. They basically just cleaned up the facade.
Sadly I only have Steam and therefor can't downgrade later. But I have backed up a fresh installation of the entire game plus ducuments folder already. Just to be save.
I guess I will test the new stuff but depending on the mods, I might not stay on the next gen for long without BiA.
