011284mm: I really appreciate what you guys are trying to achieve, but I thought I would leave this little bit of customer (potential) feedback. I like a lot of others here I will have to pass for now.
1 - Never finished W2 or can remember much from W1. So they will need replaying and the availability of time is not what is once was.
2 - My AMD CPU kicks ass, but the graphics card is a little less grand, and I cannot be bothered to buy a new one for just one game, or risk the fact it SHOULD run to pay out nearly full price.
Maybe in a year or so when more games are equally demanding or the game is nearer the £5 marker I will try, but until then I still have two other great Witcher games to actually finish.
I can completely understand the first point, that you want to be up on the story and your free time isn't what it once was, and I can completely understand your second point, as I'm in a similar-in-kind position where my computer just doesn't need to be upgraded yet.
However, it's grossly inappropriate to say that you'll get the game "[m]aybe in a year...[when] the game is nearer the [five pound] marker".
To say that you will only play a game when it is at ostensibly fire-sale pricing is disrespectful to a company as customer-focused as CDPR, a company that clearly loves video games. CDPR is not Valve and it is not Bethesda/Zeni-Max, viz. CDPR is not a company built on hype and making the same glaring mistakes over and over again to the point that they are actively selling inferior titles year after year.
I understand that what I've quoted isn't the whole of the point you were making there but it's relevant to point out. CDPR deserves to be paid for what it does because, unlike so many other companies, they care about video games and the people that play them and this shows in both the things they do fantastically and the mistakes they make. Please re-think that particular bit.
