In response to post #27837160. #27838075, #27838955 are all replies on the same post. My hardware from around 2012 plays The Witcher 3 just fine on mostly ultra settings. There are a great many options to tailor the graphics to your computer's capabilities. I am yet to have any significant problems, unlike every Bethesda open-world game I've ever played. The Witcher 3 has never crashed once. NOT ONCE. So far as I can tell, the cutscenes are rendered using the game engine and are not pre-rendered. I haven't looked at the files, but how can the official DLC provide alternate outfits if the outfits can't be changed? The DLCs are mods, right? Forget about the fact that every video game is CGI... For that matter, what do cutscenes have to do with the sandbox? So far as I can tell, I can run about wherever I like. It's certainly not Morrowind, and I much prefer the Bethesda style of blank slate character building (i.e., I don't want to play as a predesignated protagonist), but I think it still qualifies as a sandbox game. A not-very-interactive-kinda-boring sandbox, but still. Not to say that I like the cutscenes...I hate them and find watching Geralt talk a boring waste of time. In summation, CD Projekt Red is not making you do anything and their game works fine. They are diligently fixing bugs and adding feature requests. They have provided neat DLC (mods) for no extra cost. They sell the game without DRM. Now they are providing modding tools. What exactly are you complaining about? What other company is doing all this?
