    Complete walkthrough took 130 hours , despite the fact that it is not linear . Replayability it strong, believe me . Addictive gameplay , good graphics , ideally prescribed dialogues and fascinating story - that's what awaits you. 50 fps at fx8120 gtx750ti 8gb an hight settings. I would recommend to buy.

    Большинству разработчиков РПГ игр нужно брать пример с CD Project Red.
    Я очень надеюсь на то что они не забросят серию ведьмака хотя им будет уже тяжело превзойти себя, но хотя бы держали планку.
    Спасибо разработчикам за игру. Чтоб я всю жизнь в такие игры играл.    Большинству разработчиков РПГ игр нужно брать пример с CD Project Red.

    Amazing. Absolutely amazing. CDPR does PC gaming how it should be done. Free DLC, patches as soon as issues arise... I could go on and on but I think that says it all and all the details have already been covered. Kudos to you CDPR, you should all give yourselves pats on the back. The PC gaming crowd loves you all, and that's no easy feat.

    Maybe i don't write something new but its a one of the best game I ever played. On i5 and GTX 970 8 GB RAM in Ultra its really beautiful !! I travel on the horseback only to see sunset over the mountains or thunder storm in the forest. Quest are no boring and no MMO crap like in DA:I, characters are .... ehh You must see it :)

    I am already on my third play-through and still haven't got enough of it.

    It has everything a common RPG lacks.
    -Emotions in the main quest which might cause you to break down at some point. (If you have a heart)
    -Immense dialog options which pretty much changes everything and affects everything. -Incredible open-world experience combined with beautiful city designs. - Unbelievable amount of side quests and contracts also very well done in my opinion. Plus:    It has everything a common RPG lacks.

    First off, I have been playing games since the mid 80's. I have never written a review, and I am fairly picky when it comes to games that I would recommend to someone.

    That said, this is far and away the best game I have ever played. The story, the options, the graphics (on ultra) the sounds (I was shocked at simple things in the sound), the animations... the emotion behind the story.

The racial and social struggles, the politics, the invasion from outside.... All amazing.

    This is now my gold standard for which all other games will be judged. Which means I am setting myself up for much disappointment I am afraid. To CD Projekt RED I would like to say I am so amazed at the job you did with a smaller sized team and low budget (by comparison to other games this size). You all have created something beyond what can be simply called a "game".

    For those who haven't played, you are missing out on true art.    … Expand

    This is a RPG game close to perfect: great main story, significant choices, interesting (and varied!) side quests, well described world, reasonable equipment, good combat style. Looks and plays well even on an old graphics card like HD 7850 - I'm sure better hardware would provide awesome look. The music, sounds, voices complement the excellent reception of the game.

I'm running this with an i5 4960k and 2x GTX 970s (1080p monitor) and I can run everything on and ultra though I play it at 50hz as my PC was getting a bit hot at 60hz.

Skill tree has a lot of skills to unlock but to bad you can only chose a few. I played it for 4 weeks and it never glitched and i did not yet completed the story mode for 4 weeks.

    - Graphics are crazy and detailed in every way.
    - Sound track? no words, these songs are still playing in my head!!
    - Gameplay is very solid and combat is really fun!
    - World is really huge and there is so much exploration..

    Don't know what else to say. They made a masterpiece. I clocked at around 120 hours, finished all quests and left out only the "?" in the sea of Skellige.

    Negative sides? Personally just 2:
    - Controls sometimes are a bit clunky (horse controls, cliffs,etc.) - I guess this is the price to pay for making an Open world game for the 1st time CD Project
    - World is very grim and dark, maybe a bit too much?

    To conclude: it's a must have. I'll jump straight into the DLC!    … 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.
