The first witcher sold over 2 million as a PC exclusive. Which is very good for a platform with no royalties or advertisement costs.

Make a great game and it will sell, adding a DRM will only cost them money and actually may end up harming sales.

I sure do wish they would bring this and Rise of the White Wolf to consoles

Actually it's liek conformed man, The Wither 2 will be released on PC, then after a few months on 360 and then after a few months on PS3, I can find you a quote from devs (in Polish)

at 11:05 CDProjekt CEO says The Witcher 2 is NOT going to be relesed simultaniously, first PC, then 360, then PS3; he says their engine is fully multiplatform.

I'm not saying this to make PC gamers mad, just showing something you may not be aware.

I know I will get alot of disagrees. But I hope they cancel the console ports. They will just hold back the pc version just to keep console gamers happy and make them feel that they are getting that same experience as pc gamers are.

There was never any need to put ridiculously annoying DRMs in any PC game ever. Good games always sell well regardless of 'piracy'.

Nihilism5738d ago

I hope what they mean by 'no ridiculous DRM' they actually mean NO DRM AT ALL.

Any online connection requirement is B.S.

Steam doesn't count as an excuse either because every steam integrated game has been pirated as well.

NOTHING WORKS. So just think of the customers you do have and make it easy for them.

And will be checking the game out on steam or by friends when It comes out, I haven't played the original but I have heard nothing but good things about it.
