    the witcher 3 has set the bar for rpgs incredibly high, the main story is weak but side quests are unique and mainly interesting. characters are well voiced and interesting in their own way.

    In my opinion, probably the best PC RPG released since Dragon Age Origins nearly 10 years ago now (though I haven't yet played Divinity Original Sin 2!). I was not a fan of the first two games in this series, but I think the developers have made this game a lot more accessible for newcomers to the series.

I was not a fan of the first two games in this series, but I think the developers have made this game a lot more accessible for newcomers to the series.

    If I have to compare this to its closest competitor, Dragon Age Inquisition, it's superior in just about every way. The story is way more interesting, the quests and side quests more involving, the combat more fluid and enjoyable, the graphics are better, the cut scenes, voice acting and animations are more polished, and the world environment more immersive. Does Dragon Age Inquisition have weather effects for example? Or day/night cycles? Or even children running around in the towns and villages? Nope. Finishing moves in combat? Nope. An addictive, in-game card game you can play? Nope.

    The only real criticisms I have of this game are that there are still some minor bugs - graphical glitches such as two merchants or horses standing in the same space, items floating in midair, and peasants carrying non-existent crates around, or the occasional exit to Windows. I felt DAI, in this regard, was more bug free. Also, for some strange reason, the developers disabled the jump option in combat by replacing it with a sideways dodge instead, so you can literally be trapped in a corner surrounded by enemies because there is a low fence in front of you which you cannot jump over! And, there is no auto-walk or run option, so if you are travelling either on foot, or by boat, or on horseback, you have to hold down the movement key/controller button if you want to go anywhere when you're not using the fast travel option. The loot system is also a little underwhelming, as the game makes use of lots of crafting for gear, potions and oils, so most of the stuff you find will be crafting components such as string, diamond dust or various monster body parts. There is also still quite a steep learning curve, particularly for the combat.

    Conclusion - if you enjoy action RPGs and haven't already got this game, what are you waiting for? Get the Game of the Year edition which comes with all DLC included. This was recently discounted at 60% for an entire week to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Witcher series, but should still be available at a reduced price, seeing it was originally released in 2015.

    One of the best RPGs I have ever played so far I got 700 hours played so far and it is just a thrilling joy of a ride.

    CDPR have outdone themselves free dlcs, expansions as they call it as big as the game on its own that you can call it a new game on its own and sell it on its own and I wouldn't be able to tell if it was a expansion or not. Only 2 things I dislike. Armor/weapons

    And get highly frustrated to let this masterpiece go in exchange of a pay-to-win multiplayer.
    At first, The Witcher 3 gets you by hand and teaches you the basics of combat. During the tutorial, you suddenly see there is a lot of options in combat to use, but i kept myself in the melee style. After completing the White Orchard tutorial, it just lets you go. "Go on, do whatever you wish". This is where i got lost. Did not know how to start and started dying after trying to beat some higher leveled monsters.
    When i came back to the game, in early 2016, i decided to follow the main quest. To never regret. The socio-political tone of the story drags you into the world of The Witcher. It makes you understand why stuff happen in the game, making you feel the dimensional difference between ordinary characters you'll find in the villages and cities (lots of them) and the main characters in the game (witcher, sorcerers, monsters, etc.). It makes you accomplish amazing magical stuff like travel through dimensions and at the same time ordinary village tasks like chase a goat. I kept going on and back between these dimensional differences and it made the game feel good to play.
    Combat IS SO MUCH BETTER than it was in The Witcher 2. Can't compare. It gives you options to choose between what kind of combat you'll adhere to. You can upgrade signs and burn enemies, take control of their minds or stun them with magic. Or you can master the swordsmanship and adapt you game to a counter-attack/melee approach to the enemies. You just choose.
    The variety of weapons and armor in the game is also a great point. You'll switch between a lot of them, until the very end of the game, when you'll probably find the ones to match your combat style. Just be patient.
    Soundtrack is amazing. Makes you really feel in the medieval era and sets the tone of the game in calm, action and cutscenes. "Wolven Storm" is a beautiful original soundtrack even in different languages, just check on YouTube.
    Don't forget to play both the DLC's. They're both amazing stories by themselves, bringing much more content than you'll ever imagined.
    I played this game on main quest, new game plus, the Heart of Stone DLC and the Blood and Wine DLC in a total of 488 hours and actually got SAD it ended.
    Until i've played this, Ocarina of Time was considered to be the best game ever created (and i've played hundreds of games since 1998). It just lost it's crown to The Witcher 3. Absolute masterpiece.

    Rating The Witcher 3 seems quite difficult. I have the utmost respect for all the work that went into this game. It contains a moderate amount of great ideas and fun content that seems personal and passionate, which is a true gift to gamers nowadays considering the excel-sheet game-design of current "AAA"-titles. But those fun pieces are overshadowed by design decisions that throw themRating The Witcher 3 seems quite difficult. I have the utmost respect for all the work that went into this game. It contains a moderate amount of great ideas and fun content that seems personal and passionate, which is a true gift to gamers nowadays considering the excel-sheet game-design of current "AAA"-titles. But those fun pieces are overshadowed by design decisions that throw them into a melange that, at least in my opinion, is pretty much drab and humdrum. The sum is less than it's parts. In the end, I couldn't get myself to finish the game despite trying several times.

    The Good:
    - Astonishing level-art, great models and textures (Novigrad is frickin' massive)
    - Witty episodes in-between (returning a goat; herding pigs; rock trolls; some dialogues)
    - Quest design being tied to story elements; solving mysteries.

    The Disputed
    - Story:
    Overall, its tone, atmosphere, and mentality seemed more in accordance with (the popular) "Games of Thrones" than with the spirit of its own subject. My guess is: that's the reason why this game is so popular: so "dark", so "grown up". Therefore the game's story is a grimdark succession of tragedy after tragedy. Tragedy no matter what. Why? Because of drama. Want to save children? Then other children will die. Want to be diplomatic? Can't be, everyone's corrupt. Want to survive? Kill or be killed. It's this monotonous "human nature is **** " and all around edginess ("you gotta be a dirtbag yourself") that's now copied by every major player in the media industry, be it television, films or games... smells like teen spirit.

    Yes, there also was one such tragic quest-line in the Witcher 2, a game I really liked, but that's the difference: If you repeat this concept again and again and make it your one trick pony, it gets artificial and melodramatic. Besides, while the concept of neutrality was a really interesting topic in the books and also the first 2 games, in the third game Geralt's options to act neutral seemed reduced to Geralt behaving like a stone-cold mercenary, a calculating entrepeneur, regrettably.

    The Witcher novels, as far as I remember, manage a nuanced balance of "dark" and "light" content. At it's core they also convey a lot of gritty humour, sober human warmth and friendship, exciting (i.e. NOT depressing) adventures and tales, and a lot of eroticism (there even was a testimonial from Playboy magazine on the back of the first book). In Comparison, humour, adventure, friendship, and eroticism became a minor aspect of the Witcher 3, whereas the grimdark gore and edginess went into overdrive. Alas, it's also the reason I couldn't really get into the story, I'm no fan of GoT and its grimdark dramatically dramatic drama.

    The Bad
    - Stuff to do all over the place: What to do with the (literal) hundreds of "points of interests", and how to react to the (literal) tens of thousands lootable herbs all over the place? When and what to gather? Gather them at all? Is it worthwhile? I'd say: No. You thought Zelda BotW's krog seeds were a completionists nightmare, well, you haven't seen this.
    - How to get to all these places? The game is designed in a way that the only efficient method to get to places is looking at the mini-map and following the dotted line leading you to your next spot or quest. While the scenery you walk or ride through is nice, it's just that: scenery, empty scenery. I wonder how much time players have spend looking at that dotted line on the mini-map. I wish there was an eye-tracking study about this.
    - There's so many "NPCs". But except story NPCs and merchants, you can't interact with any of them, which seems kinda odd. There's whole villages with no NPCs to talk to, just "models" walking around. The term "NPC" is misleading in this case, it's more like "bots" or just part of the non-interactive scenery, like trees.
    - Loot. Generic, random loot everywhere. Besides the witcher gear quests, there's no "artifacts" or truly special items to discover.

    - All of this adds up to: Aside from the story quests there's no real discoveries to be made, no feeling of adventure, no real incentive to explore the open world. And while I do not know the look and location of many villages in this game or the nooks and crannies of Novigrad, I remember the layout of the mini map quite well.
    - Combat and moving around the world. There are a lot of other reviews that already cover this topic in all its particulars.

    Summary / tl;dr:
    If you're a fan of GoT-style stories, don't mind spectating Geralt's dot as it travels around the minimap to your next story dialogue, and fancy your combat to be rolling and pirouetting, than there's some fun to be had with The Witcher 3 and some beautiful sceneries to be seen.

    Simply the best Action RPG, though the main thing in "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" is not even its perfect gameplay, but the story itself. You should try it even if you don't like the genre, because maybe you will like it after playing this.

    PRO:
    +Huge world in which you can roam around freely
    +Build variety is on top, you can play the game in a lot of different ways
    +Quest and story are good and intresting
    +TONS of content. I've just finished the main game and it took me around 70+ hours. I havent completed all sidequests, or contracts or the DLCs (that i heard are extremely good and long)
    +Gwent

    Cons:
    -It is too easy maybe

    So, the review.
    The Witcher 3 is an open world action rpg and it is extremely good at both.
    First the open world part: You'll get something like 3 major areas in which you can go exploring and when i say three think about each one of them like the entire map of Fallout 3 or something like that. Every area has it's own ecosystem, its enviroment and its tradition. And in this huge, good looking and realistic map you'll have ALWAYS something to do because it is litterally filled with point of interest like hidden treasures or monsters caves and so on.
    I think you could easily spend 5 hours completing the PoI just of the prologue area (that is the smaller).
    And it is quite useful to do that because you'll get loot (swords, formulas ecc.) and EXP while fighting monsters gives you something like 1xp point per kill.

    Now for the Action part:
    The game is fast paced, especially if you go for a fast attack build like i did. You'll be spamming the right click every second. It is fun, there are a lot of non human enemies and unique bosses / minibosses. The problem is it can get quite to easy if you do every sidequest/contract and level up or if you use sick combos that can brake the game.
    Also it rarely forces you to really think about what to do in fights since you usually fights the same kind of enemy in every encounter and rarely different kinds in the same fight.
    Still quite fun because you have a lot of options at your disposal: attacks (both fast and heavy), signs, bombs, potions and so on.

    And last the RPG part:
    Is fantastic. One of the best thing of the game. Almost EVERY choice you take will change something sooner or later. I completed a quest in the begging just to discover 30 hours later that i could use the ending of that quest to convince an NPC to help because i was good.
    You can help your friends in the sidequests and they will remember. It is great. just great.
    Also you can roleplay the fight style you'd like more thanks to a TONS of skills that you can pick at every level you gain.

    conclusion:
    Is one of the best Open world RPG i've ever played.

    After playing through some more Witcher 3 after a total new PC build, I changed my review. Great game now that Geralt is a little more responsive with more PC power. He still has some of the worst controls of any game I've played in awhile with keyboard mouse or controller. Try and get him to move one step forward. Go ahead and try. It's nearly impossible. Try and get him to standAfter playing through some more Witcher 3 after a total new PC build, I changed my review. Great game now that Geralt is a little more responsive with more PC power. He still has some of the worst controls of any game I've played in awhile with keyboard mouse or controller. Try and get him to move one step forward. Go ahead and try. It's nearly impossible. Try and get him to stand still while attacking. Like just take a swipe or a swing or something while standing still. Also impossible. He leaps around like a wounded duck during combat. Weird and a step back in the genre when games like Assassin Creed and Shadows of Mordor give you near perfect control.
    The graphics may be the best I've seen in any game. However, why are the trees constantly blowing like an F3 hurricane is moments from hitting land. Yeah it's cool that all of the trees and shrubs move dynamically like that. But all day and night during even sunny weather? Chill, devs, chill.
    I love that when you hunt monsters, each target is a completely different creature with its own lore, strengths and weaknesses. Those fights are usually the most exciting.
    Gwent is a really simple card game where collecting the cards can be kind of addicting at first, but remember you are on a time sensitive mission to save your daughter/friend/girl. No time for that stuff . Mission tracking is very helpful. No time wasted searching for quest locations.
    There's lots to find exploring the map. Once you are a few levels higher than your mission requirements the game becomes easy as pie, as is the case with most RPGs. The signs the witcher can use in combat are mostly useless and I usually win most of my fights with dodging and striking at the right time or ya know.... flopping around like a wounded duck. ;)
    Fun, beautiful game, but not as ground breaking as people claim.

    Not so often you can find so good action game (its not so much RPG as others say - except for the talking part). Story is good, details are awesome, fights are epic .. except for the wolf pack parts.

    Game of the generation, at least up until now. Won't be easy to surpass this. It is a great rpg, with stellar production values, a great open world to explore, a phenomenal story and lore, sidequest that don't fill like mmorpg filler busywork. It is a very, very long game, but you won't get bored. Combat is quite fun. All in all, an example of what fantasy rpgs should be.

    This is very good RPG. I loved this game every moment. The story is very strong. The characters animation is very realistic. The landscape is amazing, likes an oilpainting. I very liked the quests including the sidequests, these are all creative. in my opinion there is only one mistike in this game, riding on the horse. The horse controll is really bad.

    I don't really like the game. One of the worst RPGs I've played. I like the world and everyone in it except Geralt which I'm playing which ruins the whole game for me. I don't like his story and I don't like his voice acting. 2/10.

    This is the best RPG game I have played to date. There is nothing that comes close to it in story line or gameplay. I played MMOs like WOW, ESO, Guildwars and this game blows it out of the water in terms of story line. This game is a lot better than the Elder Scrolls series such as Morrowind or Skyrim.

They have updated UI as well as how you organize your items. The world feels so alive. I can't recommend it enough. After finishing this game, I found NOTHING that comes close to it in gameplay/storyline. Can't wait until the next release from this developer. Expand

I could go on about the combat system and quests and such but the most important thing is, sometimes I find myself just stopping and feeling how fleshed out the environment is in this game.

    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.

    Probably the best open-world RPG ever made, but it still falls prey to some of the genre's worst traps.

    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.
