not big difference.
Tiny difference with no relevance.
And saying they have nothing to do with the game is just ridiculous.
it is like saying steam has nothing to do with counter-strike.

There is an updated table for Cheat Engine 1.03. It's not specific to the resolution. I have a 16:10 aspect ratio and encounter the same issues with FOV. Some people have issues with a FOV setting of 60 and need it set higher to avoid headaches and nauseous feelings while playing games. Many games include either sliders or at least include it in a settings file to modify it.

Maybe they thought they did need to as it's a 3rd-person game.

I will admit the fov does need to be a tad higher for my taste.

You joking? It's way too close to Geralt, and there isn't even an option to zoom out or zoom all the way in for screenshot purposes. Pretty bad design for a game that is so graphically beautiful.

and mine is not close at all...

I agree that the FOV is poor but this is definitely not GOG's fault, it's CDProject RED who's the developer. I suggest posting this in the Witcher forums instead because the more people that complain about this issue, chances are they will want to fix it.

GOG are the publishers. The publishers are the ones to tell the developers what to do. I'm not blaming GOG. What an utterly ridiculous thing to say. Clearly you're a console gamer first, PC gamer second.
Sigh. GOG are the publishers. GOG tell CDPR what to do.
Thank you.

I don't know where you guys are getting this from, but CD Project Red is self-publishing the game while partenering with a handfull of chosen partners.

GOG does NOT tell CD Project Red how to build their game.

If you think that, do some research first.

Steam has nothing to do with the development of CS. Valve is the publisher, steam is just owned by valve and is sold there. BIG difference. You don't go complaining to steam about cs, you complain to valve. Just like you don't complain to GOG about witcher 3, but to CD Project Red. And yes I know alot of people do complain to publishers of games, but like they even care. If you want to complain, go to the developers and you might at least get something out of it.

I have no problem with the FOV and rarely if ever mess with it. Are you sure it's not because of the motion blur effect, which I loathe and usually disable first if I can.

Most games have FOV adjustment, therefore I set the FOV to a setting I find comfortable. If a game doesn't have one I mod it.

Telling me to use a monitor that is better is the dumbest thing I've read today. Whatever monitor I use the FOV is still going to be the same, dumbass.

For the record the FOV in Witcher 3 does not make me sick - that was an overly false exaggeration. I just don't like it, plain and simple. Also, for the record while the Mass Effect trilogy were also third person I had to mod the FOV to play them too.

I find the mix of low camera distance behind Geralt and the low FOW pretty bad. Very oppressive. I'd like to have a zoom back feature as well.

I think the situation with GoG and CDPR is kinda unique, in that as I understand it, they share the same building in Warsaw. CDPR own GoG, but they have talked about how they are sister companies and site it as a strength. The point is, that I *think* comments here will get to CDPR much more effectively than would normally be the case commenting on a retailers website (like Amazon for example).

GOG is a wholey owned sub-siduary of CDPR, so they're essentially the same company, they're just split into different divisions. Also a good tax dodging manouver :D

Essentially, GoG (along with Steam and others) are acting as distributors, not as the/a publisher.

While I agree with the complaint about FoV and the lack of zoom, complaining to the distributor isn't going to accomplish much.

I agree that GoG is a distributor and not a publisher (the little I understand of it), but I think the other points I made could very well still be valid. I don't know, but I do think the situation is not like a usual one. I don't think GoG, in this situation, are anywhere near the same as Amazon (for example).

I really don't know though.
