The Witcher 3 vs. Bloodborne

just started a new game of Bloodborne. the fall weather and Halloween vibes of the season have made me think about a replay, and diving back in has been so good. damn, this game really is Castlevania The Souls Game.
but playing it in 2020, it is clearly a game held back by technology while Witcher 3 looks stunning even on current gen hardware. the shimmer is real. the problem is that the stylized high gothic architecture of BB has a lot of sharp angles in it, which end up looking fuzzy and shimmery when viewed at lower resolutions. plus there is an absurd amount of detail, with ornate carvings on just about every surface of the game world. 1080 doesn't do the art justice. take BB and put it in 4k, and the game will jump ahead of anything yet made imo.
From is ahead of their time, is the "problem" with the visuals. i don't blame BB for this, and if anything, it only means the game is future-proof. playing Bloodborne in 2021 or 2022 is going to be like playing a whole new game.

Good riddance, Bloodborne.

Oh well, Bloodborne is definitely my GotG, but to see it go out against Witcher 3 is fine. It'll probably end up winning the whole thing, and it deserves it because it's a pretty damn good game.

Love Bloodborne, but the right game won in my opinion.

Witcher 3 for me, I wasn't actually a fan of the series neither the books, but about a year ago I was looking for new games to play and I came across a few including the Witcher 3 and I read some of the non-spoiler reviews, for me what stood out was everyone kept talking about how good the story/narrative and characters were, which is the number 1 thing I look for when looking/buying a new game and I was not disappointed. The game changed my life in certain ways, being introduced into this huge and mysterious world with really profound and unique characters and a really beautiful soundtrack, only one other game gave me such a feeling which was Assassin's Creed 2. I've since completed the game, I've began reading the books which are just as good if not better. The Netflix series is a bit disappointing but I'll let it slip since it's only the first season. Here's one of my favourite soundtracks from the game.

Another note: You can't shag women in Bloodborne. That's another plus for The Witcher 3.
Shagged all of them, for progression only, trust me.
To all of you losers unable to get laid in real life, we have a game for you - Witcher 3: The Real Shagging Simulator.

Not really. W3 is an adult oriented game.

Lol, nobody tell the people who voted in any of these threads that they were set up by a literal clown and absolutely nothing is at stake

So glad I didn't take part in this trash rigged tournament with unbalanced brackets.
No offense to the dude running it... But it is pretty bad.

What time is it?
It's best to have a more than loose grasp on the English language before slinging insults.

Rigged? Talk about sore losers, BB was winning at first so how was it rigged? Are you telling me it's only rigged because the better game won?

Not talking about that, talking about which games have been going up against each other. Obvious drama/bait match ups from the start.Rigged? Talk about sore losers, BB was winning at first so how was it rigged? Are you telling me it's only rigged because the better game won?
Also better game? Lol okay. The Witcher 3 is a game for frauds I'll only take anyones opinion seriously on it if they show me their Witcher/2 clear time.

I thought most games were fairly matched, except BOTW which had an easy ride up until now, MGSV is it's first real competition.
My only complaint is lack of genre diversity, other than Smash which isn't even a real fighting game, there wasn't any fighting games in this competition. Nevermind other genres.

Surprising result! I was concerned that BotW would have to face Bloodborne in the final (even thought about voting for Witcher 3 to help prevent it -- but I didn't)... this is a much more favorable situation.
