    Hearts of Stone can be considered as a good way to meet Geralt again. This expansion drags us into a captivating story with fascinating characters. Even though its difficulty is far from perfectly set and some additions (runewords particularly) don't feel very useful, it's a pleasure to be able to ride with Geralt to some new locations and accomplish a few more new side quests.

    Hearts of Stone reminded me exactly what I loved about it the first time around, and all I could think when the credits rolled was how much I look forward to firing this game up in a few more months and concluding both Geralt’s final adventure, and one of the PC’s finest RPGs.

    Perfect in every way. One thing, however, you have to ignore: reviews that bicker over the word "expansion." We have known for severalPerfect in every way. One thing, however, you have to ignore: reviews that bicker over the word "expansion." We have known for several months what this expansion entails and so it makes no sense to criticize it for "oh it doesn't have an extra map and this is more of the same." What does that even mean? Every expansion from every game is more of the same.

    Hearts of Stone has everything you want in any continuation of Geralt's story. It's wonderfully paced and takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Remarkable work CD Projekt.    … Full Review »

    Another fine example of human pettiness and stupidity...while Konami is busy bringing back "legendary" horse armor DLC and Warner Bros sellingAnother fine example of human pettiness and stupidity...while Konami is busy bringing back "legendary" horse armor DLC and Warner Bros selling previously free Batgirl content for ten times it's real value, CDPR releases something that blows away majority of other titles in amount AND quality of it's content, while charging it on a DLC price scale...and a cheap one at that.
    And people STILL complain.
    If you enjoyed the stories of the Wild Hunt, you'll fall in love with this...excellent characterization with great dialogue, strong, compelling themes, more humor and horror, funny Geralt's 11 heist, fun and challenging boss battles with enemies, game play enhancements and more.
    This is a purchase you won't regret.    … Full Review »
