    Good game. Too bad Geralt movements are so bad. He feels so slow and heavy, like he ate a million burger and everytime he turn left or right, its like he is trying the 45 degrees bending of Michael Jackson. Absolute garbage. If only he moved quick and natural like in Elden ring then Witcher 3 would be a 9/10 easy.
    Hopefully the devs learn how to create proper character movements for Witcher 4..

    The action is monotonous and unexhilarating.
    The story is hopelessly boring.
    Fast travel is difficult to use, and quests are all work.

    Walking, running, riding horse is a pain. Geralt seem to go his own way at times when you dont walk in a straight line. idle controls are too sharp. No lag (which it should have had) and completely back to 1990´s style. Ugh.
    Riding your horse (named Roach, short for cockroach in real life) in the wild is painful in places where there is small obstacles. Roach is pretty dumb, instead of just do a small jump over it, he decides instead to come to a complete halt or run and go nowhere because of an invisible wall. And you bump into those, small obstacles or a tiny ledge keeps you walking without passing it.

    Combat was already outdated when the game was released. A very bareboned system. Hack, slash, dodge and hope for the best. Fighting groups is hopeless, they all come at you and you keep dodging until you find an opening. Devoid of choices and tactics, the combat is completely one-dimensional and dull / frustrating.

    Story wise its okay. Geralt is your usual tough guy. But overall a boring guy.
    Best and most interesting character is Ciri.
    During your playtrough there is too many characters you bump into, but neither has any develpment or are someone you care for.
    Inventory, menu are too large, clunky and messy with so much you do not need to care for.

    CPR did better story wise with Cyberpunk, but the game was a mess, and this is not unique either when you favour in the bugs. They are there. plenty-full.

    The TV-Show is a much better view. Much better character development and story. And you are much better off watching that than playing this mediocre game.

    One of the best games of the last 10 years. It is truly a masterpiece with its story, gameplay and fluidity. It also deserves a round of applause for its music and vocalizations. Sometimes, although I encountered minor shader bugs in the game, they were bugs that did not interrupt my game enjoyment.

It was well packaged and I could feel it, "This is going to be one of the best games I will play!". After playing games for decades I usually have this "hunch" whether I would like this game or not by seeing the cover of the game.

    I was mind blown the first few hours! The feeling was unique! I played many open world RPG and this is the first time I have seen the Story so well-developed! Not only that, the side quest itself is NOT a "copy paste of go here, fetch that, return here" type of lazy settings, it was well written and every interactions you had with this side quest, somehow affected the main story.
    Geralt the main character is also very unique and I could see this character serialized for a movie (it did).
    The world, the atmosphere was supportive enough to get you immersed in it. I was sure I would play this game for long time.

    So i thought. The "Magic" starts disappearing after the first 3 hours, then I was completely snapped out of Witcher's Charm after putting 5 hours. In total I have played about 12 hours and reached Novigrad halfway.
    What happened?

    I was overhyped. The story was well written, settings was well set. But that's it.
    Combat was just okay to get you going from one story to another story, it is clunky and boring tbh.
    Customization is quite limited. Outside of the main story, the environment feels very dead, you do not get many surprise element; although side quest is very engaging I'd still insist.

    Having skipped 1 and 2, i began to feel less and less connected as i progess further to the main character as more new terms and jargons been throwed in the main story.
    Combat became really boring after you figure out how to dodge enemies.
    Magic and Alchemy feels less impactful, its like just using an item from a paused-enabled menu.

    I can't explain very well, but overall I feel like this game may be rushed for some reasons.
    The pre-planning concept was well done; however execution of the development was all over the place.

    In conclusion, don't get me wrong, I think this game DESERVES a well-praised!
    The developer has put enough effort , time and expertise in creating such an amazing series!
    But the media has been over-hyping this in a sense it is like a bubble.
    I think this game is great but definitely not 9 / 10.
    A Fair judgment would be between 7 to 8 out of 10.

    To normalize this overhyped / overbubbled high ratings, please forgive me of giving this rating a zero because while I acknowledge the game's greatness, I want to be fair to all other gamers out there whom may have a spoiled experience because of the expectations of "9/10", "GOTY!", "Masterpiece" type of reviews being distributed all over the internet.

    You would be able to enjoy this game more with lower expectations. Do not fall into the same trap like me.    … Expand

The controls are bad and unresponsive, the simple act of facing a chest and pressing X to loot is a dreadful chore because it is super hard to get Geralt to aim the correct direction.

Геймплей, а именно боевка не сложная, зачастую можно просто загнать противника в угол и бить его простой атакой (он ничего не сделает). Сюжет тоже пока не особо затянул. Особенно плохо играть в ведьмака после полного прохождения the last of us 2, игру с отличным и глубоким сюжетом, крутой графикой, с хорошей озвучкой (которая не страдает проблемами ведьмака) и игру с разнообразным и более интересным геймплеем. И кстати упоминания заслуживают очень долгие загрузки после каждой смерти и это в игре 2015 года в 2020 году, это прилично бесит. Но в ведьмак 3 есть и приятные моменты, а именно: большое разнообразие существ из славянской мифологии и красивые пейзажи во время закатов и рассветов. Но в общей сложности игра мне не особо понравилась и я знаю, что такое качественные, интересные и крутые игры с одиночным сюжетом, ведь я переиграл во множество одиночных сюжетных игр. И то, что мне не понравился ведьмак 3 не значит, что он не понравится всем, всегда можно попробовать и выразить свое личное мне про игру.… Expand

Countless items for crafting etc. Loads of side quests. But the positive aspects of this game pretty much end here. Every other aspect has either at best being implemented much better in some game, or at worst being almost broken.

    Generally, the world feels too compressed, not just content-wise but also aesthetically, in a sense that the rations feel somewhat wrong (trees and houses only being slightly taller than the main character, for example).

    I also failed to see why the graphics got so much praised, as the reminded mostly of graphics of consoles of previous generations.

    Gameplay feels clunky and sloppy lacking fluidity. Meelee combat is limited to a couple of moves with lengthy animations. Spells are inconvenient to cast since it is needed to access a menu mid-combat to change the single active spell available. Menu navigation also feels too primitive and simplistic and ends up being annoying especially if taken into account the vast number of options in a single menu.

    The main plot is basically "find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find your daughter". Details of the story are not as bad as it sounds but the way it is delivered is anything but immersive. Characters are variable but some of them not deep enough, and could use a bit better voice acting.

    What really makes this game not fun to play though is its lack of polish and the too important bug that make The Witcher 3 feel more like an awesome alpha version of the game, or a descent beta version of the game. The auto generated path to objective will often be wrong. While riding the worse, it possible for the horse to stop moving instantly because it encountered a non-existent obstacle. Horse also auto steers when on roads which make it extremely annoying as it conflicts with the commands given by the player. By the far the worst thing I encountered is that some sound tracks will be missing during the majority of the game. This usually are combat or spellcasting sound effects, or worse plot important sound effects during a cutscene. Around 1/3 of game voice tracks of the character were completely absent which forced me follow dialogue solely through subtitles.

    In short, this is a huge game with huge potential, though execution was extremely poor. I would have preferred if this game was half the size but so big issues which are so evident even after a few hours of gameplay were resolved.    … Expand

Story is just cliché medieval fantasy with boring conversations adding nothing to the main plot. Combat is mostly unbalanced. Enemies are either too easy or suicide level challenging. It's painfully obvious how the developers made soldiers almost impossible to kill to force people into fighting monsters, so reviews wouldn't say "It's like Assassin's Creed."
    Mission payouts are close to 0. What you're gonna do with 50 Coins? Might as well loot everything and sell that for better profit. Perhaps you earn more later. I might figure that out some day.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Boring as **** It starts off really slow and when the world does open up you are stuck in an endless loop of fetch quests and some of the worst combat ever. The side quests which this game gets praised so much for are nothing special. They are all the same, requiring you to gather an item or kill some thing. I wonder why a game like Assassin's Creed 3 did not get praised as much as this even though it had meaningful, story-driven, well written side quests in 2012? Why didn't that game get similar critical acclaim? Its combat system and characters are also a million times better.

    Another big problem I have with this game is the Witcher Senses mechanic (another way to say "Detective Mode"). This is basically same as the detective mode you find in Arkham games. But unlike those games where that mode is meaningful and helps locate enemies when you are surrounded by dozens of them and do not want to get spotted, the Witcher 3's Witcher senses serve no purpose. They are mainly used in those 'murder mystery' solving like scenarios where you walk around with the mode and everything is highlighted. You go up to the highlighted item or location and click a button and you do the same until the trail ends. I get no satisfaction out of this type of gameplay. I'm not solving any mystery. I'm just pushing buttons at the place where the game wants me to. Basically, I'm letting the game play itself.

    Even its most highly praised quests are the same. You need to find Ciri, a girl who is like a daughter figure for Geralt so he just goes around asking for her and for a little piece of information they ask him to do a favour for him and this is where the bulk of the game's story is. You doing stuff for other people who tell you to go meet next person who may know where Ciri is and then you doing a favour for them, rinse and repeat. Yet this is being hailed as "great writing". If this is great writing and storytelling then I'm sorry but that only means that video games have an incredibly low standard when it comes to storytelling.

    This game does nothing that hasn't been done before. Its main quests are nothing more than the countless fetch quests you find in a game like Skyrim.    … Expand

    Dull story, borderline amateurish writing and voice acting, this is quite clearly a game made by Eastern Europeans and not in a good way. The Witcher 3 is lowbrow and unrefined like a blunt instrument made by someone who believes they know what they are doing but in reality is far from qualified.

The Witcher 3 is lowbrow and unrefined like a blunt instrument made by someone who believes they know what they are doing but in reality is far from qualified. If it weren't enough that the games writing and characters are out of some odd fan fiction, the dialogue moves slowly and lacks choice, character control is oddly primitive, combat like an arcadey, spammy hack and slash, the skill system bloated and unnecessary and the environments are boring and samey, not invoking the slightest bit of curiosity or wonder and the much touted feature - the graphics - are technically strong, testament to the quality of the asset libraries they are from, but somehow hard to look at, suffering from poor, or perhaps no creative direction. I could perhaps forgive the game for some of these problems if had at least one redeeming quality but there are none.. even the menus are an unwieldy mess. It is a travesty and telling of the gaming community as a whole that games like the Witcher 3 receive unhindered praise with its glaring and fundamental problems unnoticed. Perhaps it has honest intetions, and I'm sure it does, but someone needs to step in and say this is note the genre defining game it is touted to be. The Witcher 3 may just take the cake for THE most overrated game of all time.… Expand

    The conclusion of Geralt’s game saga couldn’t be better. The large open world, great storytelling and dozens of hours of pure fun – this game is an absolute must for every RPG fan. [Issue#253]

    This truly outstanding game raises the bar to new heights that will be extremely hard to reach for BioWare, Bethesda and any other developer. [07/2015, p.38]

    The Witcher 3's subject matter, its almost defiant doubling down on its treatment of women as titillating props for Geralt and the player, even as it tries to flesh out more female leads, is its most disappointing aspect. This constant presence weighs down what would otherwise be an excellent bit of closure for Geralt's video game saga — which isn't helped by the control issues that often detract from sequences meant to break up open-world monotony.
