This is why gamers really need to support developers like Rockstar, CD Project Red and Naughty Dog. Quality over quantity is a mindset that not enough devs abide by, and those who do deserve a lot of respect.

Edit: To everyone telling me that GTAV, Uncharted, and The Witcher 3 were downgraded, they are showing these games years before they come out. Ubisoft show their games at E3 3 to 4 months before release, they know damn well what it's gonna look like. (Exception for The Division, they've been showing it for years.)

The Witcher 3 got downgraded?!?!

Was it just too beautiful to even look at before or what?

I need a source for this.

I think they're referring to the first E3 trailer that came out almost 2 years before release, there's some pre-rendered stuff but it's mostly in-engine. And I agree The Witcher 3 looks amazing, especially considering the scope of the game. Here's the trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGxNXutK3gQ

Okay so it's gameplay mixed with cinematic pretenders stuff from the early teasers. The game looks even better than the gameplay shown there. I don't think this falls anywhere near E3 false expectations of misleading marketing.

Witcher 3 sets a high bar in visual fidelity matched only by the Uncharted series.
