The Witness might be one of the best games ever made. A fun, frequently frustrating study on mysteries, humanity and a love of true magic.
The Witness is pure brilliance. I platinum'd it on PS4 and recently replayed it on PS5. It's definitely an incredible experience that requires no spoilers so just let the island guide you. Yes, the puzzles can get tough but they are never beyond completion so take come back and go see other things. There is also a ton of storytelling and mystery in the visuals. The Witness is the first game I have played that really took my mind to new heights of creative thinking and perspective. This game is more than meets the eye and 100% a masterpiece.
That's why I got it on PS4. I could have easily bought it for my PC. But at the end of the day I wanted Jonathan to be rewarded for his efforts.
I am no saint, and have been guilty of pirating stuff in the past, but if it's a title I am really excited for, I never pirate it.
To play devil's advocate... pirating a game is often the only way some people will ever play the game. 1 pirated copy does NOT necessarily = 1 sale lost.
Plus, the more people that do play the game (who otherwise wouldn't have) and actually enjoy it, will then spread good word of mouth among friends/internet.
Hmmmmm yet people wonder why companies are turning to Denuvo DRM
This is simple. Don't develope for PC or implement a very restrictive DRM. I bought a PS4 copy of the game and I like it. I believe Jonathan will make more money out of the PS4 version than the PC version. For the next project, please consider DRM or simply do not develop for PC.
