It happens and people are free to choose who they like/dislike.

I thank you for at least replying to me and voicing your concerns instead of what some do(say mean things and then leave without replying back to replies sent to them asking for clarification/etc). It is refreshing/welcomed.


You can have pretty good control over Win10 with some tweaks/"hacks" here and there.

Also not to sound mean but does anyone(short of a coder for linux) have FULL control over any OS? :\

A good news finally:
italian language voice over (the last time italian voice over was in a CD Projekt RED game was the witcher 1).
Now I only need to know if I can start the game with my nvidia 1060.
If I can I will buy the game (I never preorder, not even for this game, but this is one of the really few time I will buy the game before getting a discount), if my spec are too low I will wait until my next pc (I plan to stay on my current PC for at least another 2 years).

Consoles are even more locked down.

I was somewhat looking forward to this game but it's not a big deal. There are plenty of other games out there.

This looks amazing. Strongly hoping for a Linux version at some point, too!

Consoles may be locked down but at least they let some people play games that need very good HW to play on PC.

Congratulations on the E3 presentation!

While I'd appreciate a Linux version announcement, I'm sure we'll find a way to play it anyway :)

Nice.

That's... not very useful to be honest.

Is there a preorder for a Collector's Edition for the PC? I see that Gamestop has the preorders up for X1 & PS4, but no PC version.

Release the game tomorrow, and I'll pre-order today. :P

I'm not preordering now to play the game next year. What if I'm going to be abducted by aliens or something...

But I'll sure as hell going to buy it on release! ;)

[I'm not Serren, but:] Some of us do in fact code for linux, including the kernel, so it's not like that's outlandish gibberish. I personally have full control over anything I put enough effort into with some operating sytems, but not with others.

In any case, that's like saying "does anyone really have FULL control over their lives? You can't change traffic lights, you can't cancel gravity..."

Regardless of the laws of physics, the relative meaning is along the lines of, "you don't have control in a prison, but you do when you're free on your own".

Woohoo, finally! New trailer, release date, AND Keanu Reeves!!!

This next thing I'm about to say might sound very strange but... I'm so happy to see that the game is $79.99 CAD and not $49.99 or $59.99, reason being that I found The Witcher 3 to be what I still today consider to be the best video game ever made, providing way more entertainment, amazing graphics, story, music, pretty much everything across the board, and it cost far less than most of the crappy overpriced AAA games coming out from other studios. I felt like CDPR and GOG deserved to make more money from their amazing game, and hoped they would value their work a bit higher in the future. I felt Witcher 3 at $80 would have been a steal compared to various games I've paid that for in the past, even the good ones.

One thing that is a bit confusing though is the pre-order comes with a 30% discount from the CDPR store, but the store does not appear to service Canada, or at least provide Canadian currency options which is disappointing, pricing shows up in Euros only there which gives me the impression items are only sold within Europe. I hope this changes in the future, but a 30% discount there isn't too useful as a result, at least for the time being.

Another important thing I'd like to point out though is that the game's official release date is stated as April 16th, 2020, and that is the date listed in the GOG.com store. Oddly enough though, the release date of the game listed in the Steam store is April 15th, 2020, one day before the GOG.com release date. I'm willing to bet that this is a mistake in the Steam store, but I cant help conspiracy theorize that it is on purpose because I can't imagine how someone could accidentally screw that up, and in the favour of Steam too. Hopefully CDPR did not give Steam a one day heads up over their own store.

I'm so looking forward to this game, but will be holding off on purchase until either just prior to release, or on release day. Going to be an amazing day, I can sense it. Will need to build a new PC by then though, and this time it's going to be a ridiculous monster PC that can more than run the game. :)

We're keeping our fingers crossed and hoping you're ok, and can avoid those darn space aliens!

Could be that they just officially have to commit to Win10 (because of the discontinuation of support for Win7 by 2020), but unofficially it will still run just fine on at least Win7.

It's the same with Iron Harvest where KINGArt later confirmed that tests on Win7 were successful.

Ah, so you're one of those fools that believe what people say on social media? I certainly haven't lost "control" of it. When it does, I'll be sure to call John Connor. In the mean time, I'll find you a tutorial to make a tin foil hat.
