Two cents from a former lurker

It is arguably worth the 20USD you pay for it now but certainly not the fraudulent 50euros price tag when it first came out. What a rort!!!

Actually to me it's exactly the oposite. My game worked ok from the begining on my older rig. Once I built a new PC, I had no performance isues and the game looked stuning.
To me, that game I bought over a year ago was worth the money I paid for it. This one we have now isn't worth the 20 bucks is selling for.
My performance got progressively worse from patch to patch and the game looks very bad now. They butchered everything that looked good in this game and it just puts me off everytime I'm playing.
I have two older instals and the difference is shocking. I just can't understand how could you make a game run worse after you chopped off everything that made it look good.

why dont you post some comparison screenshots, since you still have both installed

on initial release the lighting looked pretty stunning, but if you had no micro stutters combined with low fpsec's even on a higher end machine, you might have been one of the exceptions (it was unplayable on my mid end pc)

i agree that as 1c & Co cut and chopped things out of the game to try and get higher fpsec's, the game progressively looked less good, partic in lighting, scenery color tones, and clouds etc..
