    The Witcher III ranks right up there with Ultima IV, Skyrim, and Fallout 3. 10/10.    … Expand

    While I feel the game's a mid-90s in quality, I'm bumping that up to 10 to offset the various 0s and 1s docking it FAR too much based on the graphics quality. While there are some negatives that are perfectly valid (such as a 4 that docked most of it based on the control scheme, which I agree is unintuitive), take the lowest scores with a massive grain of salt.

    This is a game that is WELL worth your time based on the story alone, and the combat is just as punishing on the "Broken Bones" setting as The Witcher 2 was - sometimes more, to the point that I'm tempted to toggle the setting down to Normal instead.    … Expand

I want to have interesting characters as well as a deep and dark stroyline in my RPGs. Also a good character development/progression and a entertaining combat system that doesn't get repetetive too fast is important for the immersion as well. Bloody hell, I don't know why I dislike almost every new game nowadays.

    "Maybe I'm getting to old for this ****

    However, I created this pro and contra list for those of you in my age and with the same liking of videogames:

    The good stuff:
    -overall good artdesign
    -impressive Voiceacting (english)
    -deep, dark and brutal Fantasy Universe
    -can't tell anything about the story yet, but I guess it will be okey

    The bad stuff:
    -downgraded graphics
    -therefore only sligtly above average graphics
    -PC performance is not the best (50-60 fps on hight with gtx780, 16gb, i7)
    -I heard PC contolls are pretty bad, can't tell you about that though, for I'm playing with a XBox Controller
    -horrible german voiceacting, again :(

    -not so good controlls over the character, feels "slippery"
    -combatsystem is very repetetive, you litteraly only use fast attack (when not blocking), dodge for punish enemys attacks and the shield cast for backup, the rest is quite useless
    -boring talentsystem, most of the talents are like: (1/5) do +5% more damage, +1%Staminareg. etc.
    -horrible lootsystem, kinda feels like Dragon Age 2, where you just pick up **** the WHOLE FREAKING TIME and sell it, there is SO MUCH to LOOT and it's so damn boring. It's like they tried to stretch the game time with it.
    -Sidequests are horrible, it's like go to X, kill 5 of Y - done. Rinse a repeat.
    -jumping is annyoing and ansolutely not needed in the game

    Tiny little things that are annoying:
    -craftig and repair system is boring and unnecessary
    -you can go to a grindstone/anvil to get a 15min buff for your weapons/armor (there is not even a animation for it and you have to fast travel to those locations every time)
    -I had a siedequests where I killed yet some other ghouls and when they all died the night truned suddenly into day for no reason in a tiny little ingame machinima
    -on a other sidequest I litterally had to help an old lady to get her fry pan out of her little house, because she locked herself out or something (yeah, await more quests like that)
    -minimap needs quite long to load (like 2 secs or something), and everytime you zoom out, you could unmeant turn to the world map, so you have to load the normal map again
    -Peseant dialogues couldn't be more underwhelming, it's like "Huh? Yeah? Go away, Freak!, Don't look at me!" or, my most favourite, "Talk to our Leader." or something like that

    Well I guess that's good enough for now. Is this game worth 50-60€, I think not, better wait for a sale, dont be impatient and save your money. You know I'm right :-)    … Expand

    Pros:
    1) Wide open world and freedom of exploration. Exploration feels rewarding with all the places of power, valuable (and not so valuable, which is also important) loot, different enemies and quests you can encounter in your journey. 10/10
    2) Immersive and believable environments, including villages, a rather big town/city for a video game (excluding Assassin's Creed and GTA), forests, fields, waterways. etc., with significant level of detail to them. 10/10
    3) Inventory management. Was pleasantly surprised by the fact that they included different armors (in four pieces) which are actually displayed on the character, as well as many weapons, ingridients, clutter, etc. All those things, even insignificant miscellaneous items like borken rakes, are vital for a game which strives to be truly immersive. 9/10 - as you can't manipulate objects within the environment, like in TES series, placing all those little thingies on shelves and tables in your house:)
    4) Graphics. Despite the whole downgrade thing, the game looks good and is pleasant to play. I run it on gtx 980, all ultra, 2560 x 1440 - no significant lag. Haven't measured the exact FPS though, but the game flows comfortably, suppose it is around 50-60 FPS. There are a couple of annoying things like trees' branches and sunflowers clipping through the buildings' walls, which can manifest itself even during cutscenes in building interiors. Some textures and meshes, mostly in interiors look lazy close up, but that is just a minor thing. Overall the game looks awesome. 8/10
    5) Characters/ dialogue - seem rather believable and well written. There is a nice balance between seriousness and humor in this game, whith the main story line and overall setting being all mature and gritty while some of the sidequests and minor interactions can make you smile or even laugh at times. Whith a fine level of detail to the characters and an ok facial animations this part of the game experience is pretty great for an open world game of this scale. 10/10
    6) Character progression/levelling - is rather interesting and encourages sometimes hard choices/ tradeoffs. 9/10

    Cons (or the things I am not entirely satisfied with):
    1) The pc mouse/keyboard controls seem unresponsive and inconvenient. This is not the problem of this game in particular. I remember this type of controls scheme (where the mouse is responsible not for turning the caracter around, but for the movement of the camera) as far back as Gothic 2 (which this game reminds me a lot of) and most certainly it was around for a lot longer. It takes some getting used to and spoils the experience just a little, making you run and jump around the chest or enemiy's body, trying to face it correctly in order to loot. 6/10
    2) The biggest problem for me so far - the levelled quests system! I think that while it is great that the game does not level with the player, adapting all the enemies to the player's current abilities, the quest level requirements system currently implemented in witcher 3 is very artificial, immersion breaking and a bit lazy. Why put artificial constrains on players, making them avoid certain things just because they are told they are not yet fit for that? For example I took a quest in Novigrad (no spoilers rest assured), without immediately looking into my journal to check if I was worthy (why would I want to look in the journal while entering a house - which activates the quest?). Agreeing to help the guy I was jumped by several 'immortal' thugs who I was not able to even harm (Witcher being butcered by minor city bandits - immersion breaking). Later on I realized that this was a 30-something levelled quest. Had to reload. I am absolutely ok with having to run from enemies above my level or facing difficulties, but placing players in situations like I described above is not cool. 5/10
    3) Combat system - not entirely bad, yet it is lacking in depth and encouraging unrealistic behavior by the player. Most fights look like jumping and running around the foes trying to hit him while avoiding being hit yourself. I am yet to see the game where realistic swordfighting with blocking, sidestepping and parrying instead of jumping 4 meters to one's side is implemented. Yes, It is possible to block and sidestep in this game, but more often than not the most effective way to evade injury is to jump - that's sad. 6/10

    Overall, while there are many more minor pros and cons (for example I am not yet able to assess the storyline), I should say that this game lived up to my expectations and in some ways even surpassed them. As an RPG fan with almost 15 years of gaming 'experience', valuing immersion, freedom, choices, and level of detail I enjoyed this game very much, even being just 10 hours in.

    8/10 in current state, probably 10/10 if the CDPR do something with levelled quests and controls (which,to my mind, is highly unlikely).    … Expand

    The people you meet, the places you visit and the situations you go through are getting even more interesting and absorbing. Remember you can also play two previous games!

    Enough about the back story.
    The game is just full of things I fell in love with in Sapkowki's books. Various quests, perfect surroundings (my joy is multiplied as I am from Poland and those Slavic accents are closer to my soul) outstanding characters, models, dubbing and the magic that is added through DETAILS.

    Not only visual details but the sense of humour, dialogues and other things that cannot be measured. That gives you an opportunity to join the game and enjoy it like no other.

    Just take that risk and go deep. Do not skip dialogues, read the books and feel the game, its magic.    … Expand

    This is probably the best RPG of this decade.

    While its not entirely perfect, I want to give a 10 for going the extra mile in nearly everything, where other games fall short. A big example of that is that the game provides meaningful quests, all woven into the story. There are no simple fetch quests, everything is intertwined and more complex than it seems with real consequences.    This is probably the best RPG of this decade.

Only complaint is trees and foliage looks pretty bad under certain lightings.    Absolutely Brilliant.

Only complaint is trees and foliage looks pretty bad under certain lightings.

    Sound and Music - 10/10. Love the soundtracks personally. Side quests,merchants everything has voice acting and is done really well.

    Controls and combat - 10/10.Personally had no problem whatsoever with controls. Combat is precise and all about timing and am loving it.Monsters are done really well as they have done a good job separting each different types with their own style plus speed of attacking, dodging and all . Truly comes alive in the hardest two difficulty . If you don't lock on, target can switch unexpectedly if button mashing and if you do lock on, its hard to keep an eye on all the enemies. So jus take it slow and methodical for first few levels and soon ull be chopping heads off left and right. One problem people might have is with the FOV as it can't be changed plus some keys such as WASD can't be rebinded.

    Story and contents 9.5/10 - Been a long time fan of the series since the books plus the first two witcher. They have done a really good job of making the world come alive and meaningful side quests with superb voice acting plus cutscenes makes the game truly immersive. Only complaint is wish the hidden areas werent permanently marked on map and had to talk to people or find books,notes to unlock em.

    Inventory,alchemy and crafting 8/10 - Money is hard to come by and theres lotsa goodies to buy,craft and find. Loot everything u find.Almost everything can be sold or dismantled for crafting. Alchemy has been changed. Once u craft something its permanent with fixed number of uses .U jus need hard alcohol in ur inventory to refill it while meditating. I like this as u dont have to go around picking every herbs and plants as there are lots.Main gripe is inventory can get very cluttered and wish there was a sort button.

    Final verdict. 10/10. Gonna give it a perfect score. They've done a brilliant job .Few complaints but rest of the game is soo good iam gonna overlook it .Plus its gonna have awesome mod support which will tenfold its longevity.
    The wait was worth it and am so satisfied with the product that i had to make an account and review it.Been gaming since the awesome Ultima series and this is my first time ever commenting on anything over the net.

    Amazing game, it is the best RPG in recent years. It is an amazing story and unforgettable atmosphere of the dark fantasy. I like open world is very large and comfortable, also the characters are very natural and colorful.

    best game of the year, best rpg ever played. outstanding graphics - the atmosphere, models, environment etc - everything is so well done. the main storyline is a thrill, hours of side quests - monsters contract, mini games, treasures to find. the crafting system, alchemy, combat - everything is top notch.

    For the love of God, if you like any form of gaming, buy this game and play it! You won't regret it. To all the people that give the game a 0 to "bring down the user score" go eat a pizza and cry yourself to sleep.

    This is what I really hate about User Reviews, Too many trolls but even the 10 out of 10s has anyone even completed the game yet I doubt it but we are forces to give untrue review because of these idiots lying through there teeth just because they cant afford to up grade their pcs to run it and they have been warned you need a high end PC to run it.
    Scores mean absolutely nothing good and bad. everything hear is a review in progress and not a real review. I absolutely love this game so far, it seems it may be the next revolution of games and other devs can learn from this but I haven't finished the game yet, I've put in 15ish hours so I cant review it and don't want to score it but I have no choice on this site so only the first 15 hours gets a 10 out of 10 hopefully it stays through out coz the story is amazing the graphics have not been downgraded, the demo was 4k everything maxed out, unless you have that set up forget it, (there will be sweet fx mods anyway) sound and music are movie standard, music is some of the best video game music ever. Game play is hard but enjoyable, unfortunatley 3rd person suffer in most games eg GTA 5, Red Dead and this game they all get a little bit fiddly in tight spots and thats' the only thing Skyrim does better, First person switchs (Skyrim had the worse 3rd person ever) It's such a same Witcher doesnt have that option coz the world is the best looking openword game of all time.    … Expand

    One of the greatest RPG's ever made, from stunning graphics, an immersive and giant world to lovely written dialogues, this game combines the strength of Games such as Skyrim, Dragon Age and Gothic together.

    After investing the last 10 hours of my life into this game I can say with a sound mind that this is, without a doubt, the RPG of the year. It has fluent fighting mechanics, and as always, very interesting and diverse characters that make you get invested in its rich and deep story. AMAZING visuals along with a seamless world that makes you feel like you've actually traveled back in timeAfter investing the last 10 hours of my life into this game I can say with a sound mind that this is, without a doubt, the RPG of the year. It has fluent fighting mechanics, and as always, very interesting and diverse characters that make you get invested in its rich and deep story. AMAZING visuals along with a seamless world that makes you feel like you've actually traveled back in time is a win situation in my books. The in depth crafting systems for both Alchemy, and Blacksmithing(Armor/Weapons) makes you want to explore what can be made and really brings out the depth of the world with the sheer amount of items availble. It truly is a paradise for RPG lovers anywhere. If you have liked pass tittles such as Oblivion/Skyrim, or Dragon Age Origins as much as I have, then do yourself a favor and don't miss out on this one. A special shout out to the developers of this wonderful game with their free DLC practices and going back to the way things should with a solid, full length, non-expensive expansion pack that is going to be worth every nickel. Fingers crossed that other developers follow suit with them. I know I will be supporting them through thick and thin.… 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.

    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.
