15 Noticeable Cases of Graphical Downgrades

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

CD Projekt RED would deny as much at the time but it was obvious that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt at launch had been downgraded from its E3 2013 trailer. Alpha effects like smoke and fire looked way worse, clothing textures and details were worse, and so on. For what it’s worth, the final game still looks pretty good (character faces and expressions actually look improved from the E3 2013 trailer) but it was visually lacking in many ways.
