    IMO this DLC was apotheosis of all games created by CD Projekt RED. Wild Hunt had certain flaws, because the story in it was too large-scale. On the contrary, in Blood and Wine developers found golden ratio of the size of story. Small quests are awesome, and main story is thrilling and had unexpected turns.

    Great Expansion Pack! Indeed a must play on its own. Though there is not much development concerning Geralt as a character, it leaves plenty of room for the other characters to get their own lights. A very mature plot and very intriguing as one progresses more and more, but side quests can get a little tiring from time to time, something that would not be a problem if you consider that asGreat Expansion Pack! Indeed a must play on its own. Though there is not much development concerning Geralt as a character, it leaves plenty of room for the other characters to get their own lights. A very mature plot and very intriguing as one progresses more and more, but side quests can get a little tiring from time to time, something that would not be a problem if you consider that as a way to get back to the main quests and get as less distractions as possible. Not to say that the side quests are boring or anything, in fact it is really impressive how the developers can still pull out fresh and interesting side quests, but there are some side quests that will make you want to finish them already and move on to some other more interesting things to do.
    Talking about the new map, it is really glorious, different, marvelous, absorbing and quite well contrasted from all the other maps already placed in the game; one can feel the owe when discovering these new lands once again. Even the people can differ a lot from the folk from the north and Nifgaard. The people of Toussaint are even more polite!
    The new system of character development, involving the creation of new powerful mutagens, is satisfactorily justified with a really interesting side quest to get them activated.
    Overall, a very pleasing story to enjoy. Characters with their own motivations and way of thinking that make up for a great story that wil put a nice "goodbye for now" to this incredible universe. With, yet again, another really pleasing and nostalgic surprise at the very end of the main story... well of course it's CD Projekt Red so it might depend on your previous decisions from point 0 of the game.    … Expand

    Honestly my favorite of the two dlc's. This Story is INSANE the farther you get into it. Literally the only thing keeping this from a 10 in my opinion was the fact that because it was in a hotter realm, they decided to add mosquito sounds when bugs were near by and that just annoyed me personally. This DLC is a must play if you haven't for some reason.

    While the spectacular world and the beautiful backstory surrounding the characters will awe you, the main story unfortunately comes extremely short and below average quality of typical RPGs. There is a clear effort put into the sidequests of the game but the main journey that the characters take feel quite forced and limited due to the nature of the game needing to finish the Wild Hunt arcWhile the spectacular world and the beautiful backstory surrounding the characters will awe you, the main story unfortunately comes extremely short and below average quality of typical RPGs. There is a clear effort put into the sidequests of the game but the main journey that the characters take feel quite forced and limited due to the nature of the game needing to finish the Wild Hunt arc of the story in one game.
    The controls of the main character feels extremely stiff due to wanting to emphasize the stylish nature of combat Geralt takes. This is especially bothersome when the character is forced to take 2m forward for most attacks you initiate.
    Looting in the game is not spectacular but understandable considering the game was never focused on looting in the first place. However, it also feels the inclusion of the system itself is pointless considering food is unnecessary and any potions you unlocked do not require further crafting to refill.

    Although this expansion is a significant upgrade to the main game, ultimately feels on par with the main game because of the previous issues that persist.    … Expand

    I have no words to describe the amount of creativity, content and love that was put in to this DLC. It just keep unveiling and giving and surprising, it could be as well separate Witcher game. Just as main Witcher 3 game its a must have. A true diamond in today's grim AAA gaming experience.

    Otimos personagens, historia intrigante, novo mapa, contratos e armaduras, junto aos diversos aspectos que fazem essa dlc parecer mais um jogo novo do que uma dlc propriamente dita.
    Acho que fica atras da Hearts of Stone, mas isso definitivamente não é um demerito.

    This DLC brings the change of the climax. You are entering the fairy tale land full of wine and beautiful views only to find yourself in the middle of the vampire story.
    It's funny that after more than 200 hours into the Witcher 3 world I still don't have enough of it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, this DLC is more than just an additional gameplay. It's a story, with its characters, its monsters and its territory. "Blood and Wine" came out just a year after the game did, that's why only the main plot quests take 20 hours to complete. But to feel yourself really in the game, in Toussent, the extra missions are obligatory to play. After some days of adventures in Toussent you won't want to come back to grey and gloomy Wyzima. Of course Toussent is based on r.l. medieval France or might be Italy, where the knights' fights and wine feasts are the main activity of every young man.
    Despite the fact that its metascore is only 92/100, I would give it 96 or 97, and that's the firm 10/10.    … Expand

    So many memories... When I've been reading the Witcher books, I loved the fairy-tale-styled duchy of Toussaint with its chevaliers and culture. I loved vampire Regis who became one of Geralt's closest friends (and who died heroically in the end of the book saga) and I loved Mr. Sapkowski's non-stereotypical approach to vampire mythology. And this DLC has all of these things and adds a lot more.

    Story, characters, soundtrack, new gameplay mechanics, atmosphere, jokes... Simply great. And when "Dusk of a Northern Kingdom" started playing during one cutscene I almost died from nostalgia.

    Blood and Wine is well-crafted DLC and and excellent send-off to Geralt.

    - Combat: 9/10. A bit repetitive. Could be richer.

    Excellent narrative and gorgeous landscapes of Toussaint hook you into this colossal expansion. This one manages to intrigue as well as the first with its twists and amazing attention to detail.
    Overall, i preferred first expansion just a bit more (from a narrative perspective), this one though, is a more massive fleshed out new world. Worth it

    The Witcher 3: Blood & Wine is an exceptional expansion that reignites a sense of wonder even for players who have put in hundreds of hours so far. The breadth and variety of all that’s included stands stronger than many full-priced sequels. As a twenty-dollar add-on, it’s absolutely worthwhile.
