So let me get this straight...
We have two teams at play:
Team CDPR
Greedy bastards who got themselves in cahoots with M$ but who actually made this game and who want to limit distribution to steam and gog to get more money.
Team GMG
Greedy bastards who saw all the hype and realized that there was a shitload of money here to be made and decided to get in business with CDPR and then sell the game on their site and ,possibly, cheaper than on steam\gog but CDPR, cocksuckers, refused, so now they are selling cheap keys from "dubious" source.

1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

Whether or not it is a big or small downgrade, it's now abundantly obvious; there has been a downgrade. Fact. |
The weird thing is that grass though. There is actually more of it in the downgrade shot. You'd think if it was all about performance, they'd just remove the vegetation entirely.

Maybe they eventually implemented something like SpeedTree to procedurally generate grass - it does look hand-placed in the first shot and weirdly stretched over the geometry with various clipping issues pretty apparent in the second.

More doesn't necessarily mean better.
Grass looks kinda... artificial to me. Like it's painted with the brush asset and left it as it is.

I see none of you has ever done any gardening work. Grass grows through cracks on rock IRL too.

Fact of the dickmatter is the game changes. Downgrades....maybe! But all in all that wall looks diffent not just downgraded, different. They changed it. That is not a big deal. Dont fucking dicksucking compare one shit with the other and say oh fuck stone missing or whore missing beside the brothel and shit! Do not judge their asses like that!
Well I am pretty certain they fucked a few things down like maybe DoF and maybe tesselation and maybe shadowquality or whatever....that might be true we will see that soon. On the other hand the motherfucking console versions have been presented now. So everything we see or saw in the last couple of weeks can be console trash now. We cant judge the dickheads that much lets wait for a good old animaltrailer. It has to come now with story info and things that make us unbelievable hot and horny!

I know what you said. Just pointing out the idea of quantity over quality. In a more... lazy way.

Those 'ultra' videos were bullshit too just crappy yt clickbaiters. How can you tell? Easy. Game will have hbao+ and none of the vids was using that.
Also about the keep wall screenshot there was a recent trailer with 2 images being compared showing Geralt at the edge of a cliff. The newer one had more vegetation and tesselation adding a lot of ground geometry on that cliff...
In other words chances are quite high that nvidia used old shots just to show hairworks without realizing they were showing the game in a bad light due to older build without features on (tesselation).
2 weeks to go.

No.. The detail comes from the texturing, not from the amount of polygons. Though grass in this game also reacts to movement (did they remove this too?), i guess that makes it a little more taxing, but not much.
I think the alpha threshold looks very bad on leaves and on grass, making it appear too thick. This helps with the overall "lushness" (need less grass or less planes of leaves) but in turn it unfortunately looks more fake and paper-like.
I've noticed that saturation also has been upped a lot in comparison to the old screens, i really prefered the more realistic look than the almost WoW-like saturation.

One of those cases when you hope someone is trolling.

did no one notice how the third rock in the second row, bottom to top, left from right,had a touch of semen?
that added not only texture detail, but lore detail as well, as we knew the peasants in the village were deranged, and fapped on rocks at night, indicating a possible monster infection or a religious pedo cult.
This was removed in the new pic. I'm cancelling my preorder. Unacceptable downgrading is unacceptable.

Fail
The discussion on downgrade isn't about small details, but atmosphere and immersion breaking changes, like the complete removal of visual effects (Aard effect over water for instance) or extremely low quality textures. Things that were IN THE GAME over a year ago.
I'm pretty disappointed with everything I'm seeing the past couple of days (in particular the PS4 footage which looks 99% identical to pc), and glad I'm getting The Witcher 3 for free with my new GTX980.
