    Very awesome game, reminds me of Red Dead Redemption, Skyrim, and Dragon Age. Bringing the best of those together in a world bigger than GTA V is truly something magnificent. While also telling a very good and mature story in a beautiful setting. Ladies and Gentlemen... Let me present The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Say goodbye to life for a while! 10/10

    This is one of the best RPG and Open World games ever made. The sheer size of the world is breath taking and attention to detail is staggering.

You could argue the graphics took a hit when looking at compressed YT clips or still images but once you play this game on PS4 in the convenience of your home on big-ass TV you will quickly delve headfirst into this immersive world and forget about the whole 'downgrade nonesense'. It's the most beautiful open world to date with rock solid gameplay and excellent performance ( day 1 patch is a must for frame-rate dips issues, but after that installed you're good to go).
    If you consider Polish studio with only 200 strong staff and half the budget of EA, Ubisoft are pumping into the same crap year after year, you will quickly realize how exceptional in all aspects Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is.
    I could go on and praise this game all day long but I have quests to do, and then some.
    10/10 Must Buy or GTFO. ;)    … Expand

    Amazing game with great gameplay and story. This game is while the third in the series, is still a great jumping point and CD Projekt Red has done a good job at explaining the backstory. Granted playing the other games and reading the books will allow you to get more out of it, playing this game is still a must for anyone with a ps4, xbox one or a pc strong enough to run it.

    This will go down as one of the best rpg's ever created. It's mind blowing in scope and quality and very refreshing to have an adult oriented rpg. This is a harsh, realistic and brutal world

Im simply in awe of the beauty of this game, constantly finding myself just starring at the screen and the changing environment. I haven't seen this much attention to detail since GTA V, and that is the only other game on the current gen consoles i would give a 10.

    May I call The Witcher 3 "Adult version of Dragon Age Inquisition''? Or same level as Skyrim? Because of the amazing story, fantastic living open world. I'm going to spent hundreds of hours into this game ^^

    This is not only great game but also, a great story! It is deep and exciting without "fedex' quests. That' is something that for example Dragon Age definately was missing.

    Take a bit of Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption, The Wolf Among Us and add following ingrediences: most beautiful and dense open World ever created, hard but rewarding combat and the most memorable side quests ever created from which many are dramatic storylines on its own. This masterpiece is what you get!

    this game is 3 time amazing and best RPG game ever i playing. story, graphic, gameplay/combat and voice acting are top Notch. there are some weird glitches during gameplay like my horse got stuck against fence that it can't get out of fence. framerate sometimes dip during cutscenes and gameplay. i recommend this game to everyone : this game is worth 60 bucks

    I haven't even opened the box yet and I'm excited. Giving it 10/10 cause it has horses in it. What also helps is that Geralt seems to have a beard in this one, and I am a fan of beards. I find them comforting.

    If any game deserves a 10/10, it is The Witcher 3. The content in this game is massive, perhaps infinite. I certainly lacked the capacity to finish all the side missions. The amount of voice work and motion capture is truly incredible. This game puts others to shame.

    The gameplay is also fun in a beat-em up kind of way. The game lets you play with different styles and I chose fast and agile. By the final boss, I felt like I was playing on easy mode. Animations could have been smoother for the protagonist but then I say that about every game.

    The inventory system was the only negative. This was a real throwback to a bad time in inventory and shop management. It would be better to leave all the rusty swords on the ground and let the protagonist focus on the story. It's a small to pay, though, for such a gorgeous game.

    If you haven't played the Witcher 3, you are missing out on the best game this generation. I guarantee it.    … Expand

This is the game of a generation. I cannot think of enough adjectives and superlatives to do this game justice.

    Every side-quest defies your expectations. There are no mindless fetch quests in this game. from my experience. I enjoyed every single side quest and monster contract I took on. Every single one. Which is really rare...because i have come to expect LESS from game companies these days after a series of "AAA" disappointments from North American studios.

    Just when you think you know where the sub-plot in a quest is going, it takes a twist. And another twist. And you are faced with REAL, CONSEQUENTIAL decisions. Not the meaningless **** decisions that have zero effect on the game world you will find in Bethesda's Fallout 4.

    Consider this, I have not played any previous Witcher games, and I have no idea what a Witcher even was before playing this game. However it completely drew me in. I couldn't stop playing. I think I've put in more than 50-60 hours playing at a leisurely pace, and finished the main story and all the main side quests. Yet I have explore only 25-30% of the OPEN world portion of the game. There are VAST forests and caverns with interesting, useful loot, and monsters roaming the wilds that I have yet to kill.

    I cannot say enough good things about this game. Maybe because I've been so disappointed by the shallow, soulless "products" made by North American studios: Fallout 4, Diablo 3, Farcry 4, WatchDogs,    … Expand

    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.
