Outsiders: I came into CDPR game a little late so when I grabbed Witcher 3, all the DLCs were already released. I'm not sure but do you or does anyone know the release dates for those DLCs because I always heard that Witcher 3 had problems and bugs. Not as bad as Cyberpunk but still had them.
Although a sample of one (myself) is never a good sample, I did not have any major issues with Witcher 3 at launch - no frequent crashes, game-breaking bugs forcing me to reload an earlier save or persistent and irritating video glitches. I heard and read about a lot of these but personally did not have them in my game to any significant degree - certainly wasn't camping on the forums or waiting for patches in great anticipation like it seems to be the case with CP2077 crowd. Conversely CP2077 irritated me with poor sluggish performance (despite running it on RTX 3090), endless visual bugs which did detract from performance and one or two game-breaking bugs where I had to go back to an earlier save - luckily i'm the person that saves the game every 10 minutes or so. CP2077 did not crash to desktop - was very stable from this perspective - maybe less than 5 times over the entire playthrough the game crashed.
So I disagree vocally with the view that W3 was as buggy as CP77 at launch - in my view supported by my own experience it was not even close.
