GSY Video PS5 Xbox Series X PC

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a bit like GTA V, it can't stop getting released, but this time, the complete edition comes with some neat features that can be downloaded as a free update by all those of you who purchased the original game. On current gen consoles, the game now offers two graphics modes, on prioritizing performance while the other adds ray tracing effects (no ray traced reflections though). While the former remains rather smooth with some occasional hiccups while riding the horse, the latter is clearly not good enough when it comes to framerate. Some passages even reminded us of the old days in the swamps on PS4 and Xbox One. It's a shame really as ray tracing really makes a bit difference in the lighting.

I really like the game. But I remember every single moment in the videos. So I will skip this.

Thanks for the vids Drift!

How are you and Blim doing these days. I've been looking back at old stuff like for Project Gotham Racing and see old comments and can't believe how fast the time's gone by.

I'm good, though a bit sick at the moment, just in time for Christmas. :)

As for Blim, no idea, he has been ignoring me for about three years and I have no clue why. As far as I know, he's fine though...

Is that true? is blim no longer involved in the site? Who runs it now? Is it just you and Davton? Thanks for your efforts!

Only davton and I are involved when it comes to content. Blim is still the main administrator but unless a problem comes up and he has to intervene I don't think he does much. Then again, since I have no news from him, I don't know anything. All I know I get from davton, who still talks to him a bit. That's how I know the website's end is only a matter of months now. We'll let you know of course...
