    In my eyes one of the best game of recent years. What CD Project did is stunning example that passion, dedication and hard work can produce unforgettable gaming experience.
    I have big respect for the studio and how they approach game development and their customers.

    I have never played anything that I can even compare to this game and I won’t for a while. I very rarely give anything a 10/10 but I’d be giving gaming as a medium a disservice if I didn’t because if I don’t, these triple a RPG’s wouldn’t be following the right person. It was even monetised so with utmost integrity without those garbage ass time savers or content locked behind a paywall beside the base games releas. The game released with all micro transactions free and extra single player content that they actually spent serious money on was charged at a perfect price considering Blood and wine is the size of some entire games out there.

    A true masterpiece in the history of gaming. It combines a vast, stunning open world filled with amazing, differing side-quests and a great main-story. I have never seen so many likeable charakters which i really cared for. It looks amazing and the combat of the second part is even further improved.
    All in all with certainty my favourite game. Boiling for CP2077

    Universal acclaim for this game is something I will NEVER understand. I suspect that most who give this game a positive review are casual gamers unfamiliar with what a true RPG is, or simply it's a matter of being caught up by the incredible aesthetics, which the Witcher 3 has in spades.

    It is a gorgeous looking game, at least on a high-end PC. Another positive is the story. It's heart-touching at times.

    BUT...

    The Witcher 3 suffers from serious faults.

    The role-playing is shallow (and sometimes non-existent, like when Geralt is forced to break his moral code). Sometimes, decisions are wrongly reflected and other times, not reflected at all. Most of the game is filler, meaning the majority of playing-time is consumed side-quests that have no impact at all on the main story or even Geralt. Worse, however, is that the side-quests use the same formula. Trust me when I say that once you've done one side-quest, you have pretty much done them all.

    The game also lacks replayability. The ultimate end is determined by a handful of decisions that come in short order following the Battle at Kaer Morhen. Simplistic, to say the least, but the true offense is that none of the decisions you make leading up to Kaer Morhen dictate any real change with that main battle or modify how the world reacts and treats Geralt. The game is always the same.

    Other faults include crappy, oh-so-crappy game mechanics. Not that fluidity is required when fighting, mind you. This is perhaps the easiest game I've ever played. Even on the so-called "Death March", it's a walk in the park.

    Do yourself a favor. If you're looking for that all too rarity of a game, meaning a cRPG set in an open world, check out Assassin's Creed Odyssey. It's not nearly as dumbed down and the decisions you make actually determine how the game reacts to you.

    But better yet, go old school if you want a real cRPG experience. Check out Pillars of Eternity or the Baldur's Gate series, the last of which has been the king of all role-playing games since 2000.

    Play the Witcher 3 if you don't want to think, if you don't wish to be challenged, and all you want to do is ride around on the most irritating horse in the world while perusing the lovely scenery. If you want an action game with considerable role-playing options, something that's intended for thinking adults, look at Witcher 1 and Witcher 2. Witcher 3 isn't even the best in its own series.

    Completing this game took me over 200 hours (including DLC's) and I don't regret any second spent with Geralt. Since then I played multiple open world games and I always compare them to this one. And to be honest, none of them stands a chance. They may have large worlds with tons of side-quests and content but compared to Witcher 3 - they all seem like generic fetch quests.
    I believe that
    Completing this game took me over 200 hours (including DLC's) and I don't regret any second spent with Geralt. Since then I played multiple open world games and I always compare them to this one. And to be honest, none of them stands a chance. They may have large worlds with tons of side-quests and content but compared to Witcher 3 - they all seem like generic fetch quests.
    I believe that what makes this game so special is the quests. Basic mechanics are pretty simple: you can fight enemies, investigate the area using the witcher senses and talk to the NPC's, but the execution and the story of these quests are what makes them so special. Almost every quest in the game has its own story with a twist, a moral choice, a reward and sometimes with the consequences at some point of the game. Did you free a poor unlucky man that was captured by some nilfgaardian guards? Too bad he turned out to be a thief and a murderer and you can find his victims later in the game. Shame.
    But the quests are not the only activities in this world. There are contracts (boss fights that requires you to learn what tactics are effective against which monster), super addictive card mini-game called Gwent and many more (some generic treasure hunting and bandit camps are also here).
    The combat system is deep and satisfying. Especially on higher difficulty settings.
    And the main story is just great. It is touching and engaging (especially for someone who read the books).
    One of the best if not the best game I ever played. If you are still hesitating - stop. Just buy the game.

    Не буду расписывать достоинства этой игры, т.к это не описать словами, не описать тех эмоций которые испытываешь при прохождении этой истории. Скажу одно, Ведьмак 3 - это шедевр, который должен пройти каждый, каждый кто ценит замечательный сюжет, дополнительные задания, в каждом из которых есть свой сюжет и история, нет смысла даже что-то говорить о музыке, о графике, о атмосфере, о эмоциях которые вызывает эта игра, потому-что все это на наивысшем уровне, и подобного я еще не испытывал. С первых минут игра сама говорит за себя.

    Эта игра заслуживает описания своих плюсов на много страниц текста, но она в этом абсолютно не нуждается.

    Единственное о чем я жалею, это о том, что книги начал читать после того как начал играть в игру, а не наоборот.

After the crap Elder Scrolls and Assassins Creed era. Beautiful face animations and cutscenes. Tha characters are all likeable. Honestly I still think that the Soundtrack is the best part of the game, it's simply stunning. (most tracks are not on the OST so you must extract them in game/just google for it) DRM Free and still successfull, thats a big F**k you to the todays gaming industry (EA/Ubisoft/Activision ect). Don't forget to get some mods that improve the experience. Compared to the Mass Effect trilogy you get here a satisfying end (not just one) that fits to the story. And don't left you confused back, scratching your head. Expand

The screenplay is as well written as the voice acting is done. The game is able to pull you into its world seamlessly, and it is a chore to get back to your daily routine.
    There are, however, a few things that would be better done in some other way in my opinion.
    First thing: the characters you encounter throughout the game, if they aren't main characters, they all look alike. This kind of breaks immersion when I accept two very distinct quests from the same old guy...
    Some other details:
    controls feel kind of clunky and unresponsive a lot of times. This was half addressed in an update which makes you choose between two distinct kind of controls, but they still can be better;
    the beginning of the game falls a bit flat, I remember distinctly not having as much fun as I had later in early stages.

    Nevertheless, this game is a masterpiece. It's kind of scary to think that a studio of finite dimensions can produce something this deep and large.

I can give 7 or 8 for all this. But it's not very versatile in upgrading character, combat and skill systems.

    For the first look you could see some different skills, clothes, weapons, but all this don't bring big changes to game-play. If you start second or third time you can make some other decisions, complete some steps in different order, which would make you see other cut-scenes, but you are always gonna be a man with sword and very limited action set. There is no such things like was in "Skyrim" for example, where you could make much more different characters (I'm talking not only about appearance) and skill build really could completely change game process.

    So, it's more like mix of uncomplicated slasher and action adventure with some customization, huge world and variety of outcomes. And it's definitely well made mix but it's not give all that i wait from RPG. I was between 7 and 8 but after I've looked to all this 10 of 10, i had to rate 6 just to sick balance because game is not brilliant.

    It is my perfect game. Beautiful, enchanting and heartbreaking in both world design as well as story craft. It is the most engaging NPC interaction I have ever seen. They are so well written that I actually miss them when the game is over.

    If you are like me you will be able to play it multiple times and still be amazed like it is your first play thru.

    I'm probably going to be hated on for comparing this game to Dragon Age Inquisition even though after playing both of these games there both similar. The only difference is that Witcher 3 handles side quests better while Dragon age Inquisition handles it's main story better.

    Best Game of all time!
    Perfect story combined with a fantastic Open World.
    maybe some components are not perfect, but the product is more than that. I would rate it a 12/10... For me the weakest point is the purposeless economy system. Its opulent but not well thought out. With this I would replay this game 1000 times. Dont understand the critique of some people about the fight

    Best game Ever
    The game is absolutely massive. Even if all you do is the main story, you'll roam all across the map, sail across the sea, see many different and amazing things. The points of interest and secondary wuests scattered around the world feel organic, and the people who give you the quests genuinely feel in need, and make you want to help them.

    I first met the Witcher world for the first time just a couple of years ago. And the acquaintance began with books. Sapkovsky created a world that was absolutely unique in sensations - after reading you do not have a feeling of delight, but after you close the book you suddenly realize that it was very cozy, great and sincerely sorry to say goodbye to him. Attempts to flirt with an epicI first met the Witcher world for the first time just a couple of years ago. And the acquaintance began with books. Sapkovsky created a world that was absolutely unique in sensations - after reading you do not have a feeling of delight, but after you close the book you suddenly realize that it was very cozy, great and sincerely sorry to say goodbye to him. Attempts to flirt with an epic fantasy just spoiled the saga, and the coolest in the books remained the stories of the first two volumes and local events (as well as the last, recently published book, in the style of the first two collections).
    The first part of the game definitely got to the list of favorite ones because of the elaboration of the plot and the special, deep atmosphere. Medieval Vyzima, deaf forests with scattles, frightening swamps and strange inhabitants of it, ghosts of the fields ...
    The developers managed to ideally get into, fit into the world of Sapkowski, despite the fact that many plot motifs were repeated, and the characters themselves didn’t intersect with the saga either - they remembered Pan Andrzej once more in the pages of the manuscript.
    The second part was a step forward and at the same time in something a mistake. In technical terms, this was a completely new, unique pumping system, which excluded the possibility of turning the game into a slasher by notables - experience dripped from quests, and for environmental genocide they gave pennies. However, the atmosphericity of the books and the first part, their local cosiness, were sacrificed for political intrigues and large-scale decisions. The three locations of the world of the Second Witcher were not bad, but each of them lost any of the first part: The forests of Flotzam were monotonous than the swamps, although in reality there were more quests and opportunities, Lok Moinn did not fit into the concept of the Witcher (purely subjective opinion), only the location of the second act was more or less, but it was not enough. The main insult of the second part was the moment of the omission of the peasantry - the basis of medieval life and the disappearance of notes of Slavic (albeit too Germanized West Slavic, but still Slavic) myths and beliefs.
    The third part is the work on the bugs. In an amicable way, the only minus of the game is that you cannot follow several tasks on the map at once. Well, the levels are painfully easy - playing when completing secondary quests to level 12-14 becomes boring even on the third difficulty level. Although someone like. But here are the pluses ... The boundless expanses of the peasant settlements of Medieval Poland, the truly living inhabitants of Skelliga (and not the plastic monotonous fools from Skyrim), breathing the events of Novigrad - once you get here, you don’t want to return. Old heroes and even minor characters in the book saga are returning (oh, what a pity for Lashorel, this is my favorite story!). Before the stupid, creepy witches, the beautiful Iwasik, the **** Bloody Baron - and all this only in the first part of the game! The characters of all these characters are revealed cooler than in half of modern films - bravo to the authors of the dialogues and our translators and actors, by the way, too (if not for the damned timing and laconic, but so short for phonetics English, because of which the replicas are in Russian they greatly accelerated! And how the third-party quests are worked out - the most interesting are not only the main quests of the plot, but also additional tasks and orders that are not related to it. In every house of this vast world, there is a tremendous amount of work. the previous parts were quite "closed" and the Witcher's fans, in principle, loved him from out of the giant expanses. And with them, an abundance of interesting finds, constant innovations, the game would not get bored. Great creation! I did not find any glitches and other bugs during the passage, I do not chase graphics, in those terms everything suits me.

    First and foremost, I'd like to thank Mr. Andrzej Sapkowski for his Witcher book series that served as inspiration for all the Witcher games. Dziękuję bardzo!

    Also, READ THE BOOKS BEFORE PLAYING THE GAME! Or at least find someone who has read them to give you detailed summary of the plot and events in the book series. ----- Just as the W2, Wild Hunt works best as a story-oriented

    -----

    Just as the W2, Wild Hunt works best as a story-oriented action adventure. The universe, lore, characters, story and dialogues are simply great. The gameplay is average to above-average and when judged from this perspective, Witcher 3 isn't really memorable game.

    The combat is too simplistic, but still fun. RPG elements are way too primitive (I don't consider any Witcher game to be an 'RPG'), the world's too big and exploring it feels somewhat dull. The main problem with W3 is that it gets repetitive and predictable too soon. Almost all quests go like this: talk to NPC -> use Witcher sense (which is INCREDIBELY dumb ability from both lore and gameplay perspective) -> fight with generic enemies -> (repeat 2 times) -> get a reward. Enjoyable at first, pretty dumb and boring after a while. Same logic applies for other aspects of the game.

    Witcher 3 has great story, universe and characters. But apart from that it's just well-crafted modern open-world game - enjoyable but lacking any deeper gameplay value. Nothing more, nothing less.

    ------

    Again, GO READ THE BOOKS FIRST.

    The world is so vast and full of good points of interest, the story is wonderful, mature and interesting, and it's the only one that ever made me feel anything. Every quest is well written and has a meaning, and they are well disposed all around the world. The graphics are amazing, both from a technical and an art-style point of vue (and many mods are available to improve it even further). The lore, which is a big part of the game, is extremely well made.
    All of those goods points are due to the fact that this game is based on a serie of excellent books (from Andrzej Sapkowski), and made by one of the best game studios in the industry, CD Projekt Red.

    The Witcher 3 says no to all of this - it's a great game with a fully realized setting, it's a joy to play, the business model behind it treats its customers like human beings, and it delivers a story that finally hits the tone of the books.
