Witcher 3 Dev Gamers Are Wary Of Poorly Polished Next Gen Games

It’s no secret that quite a few big-name next-gen triple A blockbusters have been riddled with bugs or otherwised poorly polished, and its made the market increasingly weary of these titles. So, when CD Projekt Red announced that it needed a little more time to polish up The Witcher 3, the decision was met with praise, rather than criticism from gamers. “Gamers …” said CD Projekt Red’s Adam Kiciński, “took our decision very well. [The] market is afraid of badly polished games on next-gen platforms.” Kiciński admitted that his team set the initial release date for the game too hastily, which is what led to the multiple delays. Kiciński’s statement that the February release date was set too hastily does undermines the sentiment from CDP co-founder Marcin Iwiński who in May 2014 promised “no more delays” to the game. “This is not our first game; we are not newbies,” he said then – “we planned [the February 2015 date] well”. Nonetheless, I would rather CD Projekt Red take their time and get it right. Source: Eurogamer
