    What a story, what a game! I love it, I played more than 100 hours, experienced all DLCs, all missions. I love all music, all NPCs, they aren't the virtual character, they are real people!

    The game itself is great, a 9/10
    With all the issues I'd give a 7/10
    Cons: Very clunky movement, especially painful in small spaces or near ledges making you get stuck or die at times Bad visual glitches and pop-in Horse controls. Gear randomly unequipped by itself Switching signs not working half the time Very repetitive music Bad ending However the game crashes    The game itself is great, a 9/10

    However the game crashes frequently, game breaking bugs happen a lot and it straight up breaks my PC and forces me to restart.    … Expand

    Finally got to play this game and ... it is a huge disappointment , first let's start with the gameplay.

    - I taked my time to read some reviews and as others have said it feels more like watching a movie than actually playing a videogame, there are even small side quest that have like 6 cutscenes,,, you only have to pick a dialogue option and walk a bit.

    -The combat is also very limited, you can't jump, you can't use stealth and there are only 5 spells, so you pretty much have to fight the same style through all the game, so the combat gets very boring and repetitive after a while, even worse if you decide to do another playthrough.

    -The weapons are also uninspired, and the crossbow is one of the worst weapons i've used on a videogame, it goes from doing almost no damage to one-hit kill the same monsters if you are under water,it doesn't make any sense

    -The story was also forgettable, nothing i haven't seen in others games, you pretty much are the world savior, people complained about this type of stories in others games but in this game they decided that the story was great, wich is incomprehensible.

    But the worst part of this game is the open world design, aside of good graphics the open world feels very empty, compared to for example, Skyrim, cdproject chosed quantity over quality, there are much more npcs but 99% of the npcs just curse and spit, they don't talk with you and don't add anything to the game, in skyrim every npc was unique in some way, and they had something to say or even a quest related. i guess that cdproject knew that the open world was too empty so they decided to put a mark on the few npc's that have something to say or a quest to give you, wich makes exploration pointless since you already know where you have to go and with who you have to talk every time you get to a new town or city.

    -Other huge problem in this open world is that everything feels too scripted, theres no random events, so every playthrough is going to be the same aside the choices you make in certain points of the main quest or side quests, so the open world is pretty much just a barren land to get through your next quest

    -The dungeons are also too samey, in Skyrim every dungeon was different and had some story, item, or quest related to it, instead on the witcher 3 most of the dungeons are just small caves with a monster to hunt and nothing else

    -Aside from novingrad and maybe skellige port every town or city is copypasted and as i have said because of the npcs system that cdproject chosed, most of those "hubs" don't have a single npc to talk to, the npcs are just walking around repeating the same words or making spitting sounds when you try to talk with them, very sad    … Expand

    A true masterpiece. This is one of the only games that I have tried to complete every single side quest. You can easily spend hundreds of hours with this game. I would have given this 11 for the score!

    A masterpiece.

    You can tell how much care went into creating this game. Excellent combat, story, and immersion. Many of the decisions you make in the game will affect later outcomes.

    It does not have vr support, so talking about immersion is kind of silly. Unless the scale of the game is huge. That's how witcher slowly builds up immersion with hours and hours of gameplay to the level of today's vr games. Also, for more immersion it's better to play on highest difficulty, because witchers are fragile in this hostile world and die after falling from 10 feet height.It does not have vr support, so talking about immersion is kind of silly.

    Guess, Pareto Principle is the norm, and it's okay that today a game with many clues about that it's unfinished is treated like a final product. Many pros, many cons. Won't enumerate them all, my personal biggest letdown is that there are no puzzles to solve. You, a medieval detective, just go to the marked location, click on marked objects, and puzzle solves itself for you. Basically same as Arkham Knight. Geralt just tells the player what to do, it becomes such a routine so quickly. I actually bought this game because of detective vibes it has. Because fantasy is mostly all the same to the point of annoying, and this felt so new and so fun. However, nope, cdpr also thinks that apparently the least risky move is to treat players like idiots. I wonder how did they come out with this for such a big game. The bigger the game the safer it is to experiment even if just a little bit. Could at least add some puzzle side quests, or could add adjustable puzzle difficulty by hints option if there were any in the main quests. I will still keep my hopes high for Cyberpunk, because witcher expansions show that developers kinda realized that they **** up the potential in wild hunt, and added some puzzles into hearts of stone, just a little bit. It's almost nothing though, and very-very basic.
    Could be such a masterpiece gameplay-wise. I mean it's fun to follow investigation in blood and wine, but it could be so much more interactive and therefore more fun.
    Gwent was fun exactly because of the point I am highlighting. Breath of the wild looks deserted in comparison to witcher, but is inherently more fun to actually Play because of puzzles    … Expand

    ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS GAME, though it isn't perfect, The characters and the world are very well done and the writing and dialogue is amazing. One BIG problem I have with the game is that there are so many bugs and glitches.

    Witcher 3 along with GTA5, RDR2, Horizon Zero Dawn are my favorite games of all time. Witcher 3 is game in another league and it deserves 11 out 10. It is just that epic and DLCs are in their own DLC league too. Amazing experience from beginning to the end.

    Probably the best open world game out there with almost flawless gameplay. My only mayor issue is the whole Hearts of Stone DLC: it's so bad and unfair it almost made me dislike this game.

    Gran historia, gran mundo abierto, personajes carismáticos, pero el combate deja mucho que desear, se me hizo tedioso, lo que me animó a completar el juego fue la gran historia que tiene. Aún así, es un gran juego, pero ni mucho menos la obra maestra que dice todo el mundo, para mí está sobrevalorado.

    I just scored 8 to Witcher 2, and CDPR just comeout with one better game, and two great dlcs. Its just great. But a thing really annoy me. The decisions that you make at Witcher 2 doesnt really effect Witcher 3. But anyway, just play both games.

    本体结合石之心和血与酒的庞然大物可谓是精彩纷呈毫无尿点妥妥十分。开放世界最难的一点是什么，是填充这个开放世界。这里说的不是素材是内容，可以是支线也可以是背景设定。巫师3在这一点上的设计可谓是当今第一无可匹敌。它把原作的背景和故事打碎了填在了地图的各个角落，或是一段丰富有趣的支线，亦或是一段有趣的背景对话。真的就把整个世界变得绚烂多姿。让玩家仿佛来到了一个真实的异国他乡，这里有它的风土，有它的人文，更有着它的历史。这些东西都像繁星般散落各处，等着玩家去发掘去体会。你来这里不仅仅只是来体验一个名为杰洛特的狩魔猎人的故事，而是来体会一个名叫巫师的国度。说说游戏其他的方面。我个人非常喜欢本作职业系统。法印结合剑技也确实是前两作玩剩下的没啥好说，但妙就妙在了装备上。本作不同派系的狩魔猎人套装和特定天赋树是相辅相成的。比方说我本体走的是狮鹫路线，石之心走的是熊路线，血与酒走的是猫路线，本体结合石之心和血与酒的庞然大物可谓是精彩纷呈毫无尿点妥妥十分。开放世界最难的一点是什么，是填充这个开放世界。这里说的不是素材是内容，可以是支线也可以是背景设定。巫师3在这一点上的设计可谓是当今第一无可匹敌。它把原作的背景和故事打碎了填在了地图的各个角落，或是一段丰富有趣的支线，亦或是一段有趣的背景对话。真的就把整个世界变得绚烂多姿。让玩家仿佛来到了一个真实的异国他乡，这里有它的风土，有它的人文，更有着它的历史。这些东西都像繁星般散落各处，等着玩家去发掘去体会。你来这里不仅仅只是来体验一个名为杰洛特的狩魔猎人的故事，而是来体会一个名叫巫师的国度。说说游戏其他的方面。我个人非常喜欢本作职业系统。法印结合剑技也确实是前两作玩剩下的没啥好说，但妙就妙在了装备上。本作不同派系的狩魔猎人套装和特定天赋树是相辅相成的。比方说我本体走的是狮鹫路线，石之心走的是熊路线，血与酒走的是猫路线，三者玩法上就有着天壤之别。尤其是石之心加入了符文系统和血与酒加入了突变系统后，其玩法间的分歧又进一步的拉大了。让探索不同职业变得更有乐趣。十分推荐大伙尝试不同的流派。最后本作是杰洛特的告别之作，血与酒中的真结局让我这个从巫师1开始跟随到这的老玩家老泪纵横。陶森特的葡萄酒庄是个好地方。… Expand

    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.

    I've made it pretty clear that it's hardly a flawless game, but that doesn't change the fact that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is something pretty bloody special and you should absolutely play it.
