CDPR has historically, as much as they have anyway, supported their games fairly well. So there's hope for fixes and some content additions, though they might not be as generous as they were with Witcher 3. Modders are also already on the job, so some issues may get the Bethesda unofficial patch treatment (folks are already working on fixing NPC and traffic wonkiness for example.) It will be interesting to see where the game is in 6 months.

That said, I don't know if they can fix some issues, mainly pacing and uneven delivery (female V voice acting is so far ahead of male V in quality it borders on embarrassing, other characters are hit and miss in terms of how well they are realized.) It's a shame the game was so over-hyped, if it had been more of a sleeper it could have had a much brighter long term outlook.
