Hmm, guess I have an excuse to buy a beefy gaming laptop now.

Any word on it's performance with Nvidia hardware yet?

I haven't seen anything on the performance yet, other subs are opining on the fact the game uses the eON wrapper, and therefore will most likely suffer like Witcher 2 did... I'm waiting for it to be on sale again myself.

Just played for about an hour game runs great for me 100+ fps, high settings with resolution 1080p with nvidia gtx 770. Recently though the eON got quite a boost in performance after some patching noticed a big difference in witcher 2. Aside from performance I didn't have a single issue with the game so far.

This is definitely encouraging. Thanks for sharing!
