    Fantastic game. Best I've ever played.
    Some people complain absolut the combat. It may be the worst part of the game. I honestly think it was very good. Didn't bother me in the slightest.

    The 1st AAA game that I have played as far as I can remember. Bought it for long time but only started playing it after hearing my classmate was playing. Spent so many time and dwell in it.

One of the great things is that your actions during missions actually matter, this cannot be said for a lot of RPGs.

    Exploration in an open-world setting, alteration of gameplay based on personal choices, and the main storyline accompanied by numerous side quests ultimately define an ideal role-playing game, also known as an RPG. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt encompasses these elements and takes them to the next level. The player progresses through the game as Geralt of Rivia, a monster-hunting Witcher whoExploration in an open-world setting, alteration of gameplay based on personal choices, and the main storyline accompanied by numerous side quests ultimately define an ideal role-playing game, also known as an RPG. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt encompasses these elements and takes them to the next level. The player progresses through the game as Geralt of Rivia, a monster-hunting Witcher who aims to rescue his former apprentice, Cirilla, from being captured by the Wild Hunt (an army of elves from another world) for her powerful Elder Blood. During the playthrough, the player is immersed in a vast, breathtaking world that almost feels alive where character abilities, craftable potions, and ranged weapons are utilized in combat. Relationships can be formed with detailed, engaging characters, even those who play minor roles in the story.

    The story itself relies on the decisions made throughout the game, no matter how small those choices may seem. Making these decisions not only connects one with Geralt emotionally but also arranges an unpredictable, unique playthrough in which the player is bound to face the consequences. Choosing which characters to kill, help, or become romantically involved with impacts the endings of quests and the storyline overall. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt isn’t the type of game where it’s explicitly stated which options are morally correct or not; the outcomes occur naturally and give one a sense of freedom with their choices. In her Game Informer article, Kimberley Wallace describes “how the writers are always one step ahead and [her] decisions are never safe; the shades of gray mean that [one may] never know who to trust, requiring [one] to think carefully about every situation” (2015). This perfectly embodies the importance of the decision-making aspect of the game and how each choice is questionable and based on trust and beliefs.

    The characters are just as compelling as the story, as they are charming in their own way and completely believable. The player may feel emotionally impacted by the bonds that are formed, relate to their personalities, and can observe the in-depth character development of each person. The details and realism are recognizable in everybody, from Geralt to a minor character stumbled upon in an optional subquest. Gabriel Zamora expresses the richness of the characters in his own PCMag review, “Characters from the stories are fleshed out fantastically, often through their dialogue alone. Subtle gestures and facial expressions also breathe life into each personality, too” (2015). The individuality and authenticity of each person make them quite unforgettable, setting them apart from characters in other RPG games. Even so, listening to every character reminisce about their past can become tiresome and repetitive.

    Main quests and intensive side quests piece together the telling of a mesmerizing story. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt incorporates considerable detail in each quest, and the side quests themselves relate to the main story and its lore. They stray from typical side stories in other games, as they aren’t basic “recover this item” missions or ones where the player has to follow excruciatingly slow-walking characters. Completing these quests, along with the main story, allows one to play this game for hundreds of hours. However, undertaking these side quests can prove to be time-consuming, which may not be fitting for every player. Luckily, they’re not obligatory and the player can solely stick to the main story if they choose to do so. Overall, the player constantly wonders what will happen next, from the very beginning to the end.

    In essence, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt can be considered one of the most innovative, exemplary RPGs ever made. Completing the game might make one feel empty, but knowing they can replay it by making different choices or even to 100% it makes it worthwhile. Various aspects of the game create a memorable experience for anybody to enjoy.

Combat is just ok and for the most part a bit on the lame side. The camera lock is bad and annoying and the action of fighting really isn't all that interesting. If one has played Demon's or Dark Souls then the action of this games combat is rather primitive. Enemies will not chase beyond a certain radius making them cheatable. The amount of quests is fantastic however it is hard to fast travel in the proper direction of your current quest because its not integrated very well. One other issue of combat I find very annoying is swords are automatically sheathed and it can really trick you into player error stumbling into areas thinking you are ready for combat only to find out you are not. Load times are also extremely long. However on top of all these shortcomings this is still a fantastic game. Its sheer size and above average quality beg to grab your attention for a very fun playthough nonetheless. Although the combat can be bad there are a lot of interesting monsters and beasts to find and stumble across and a fantasy world feeling does exist that at times is exceptional. Despite some shortcomings I have high praise for this game and would fully recommend it. Just be warned its dialog heavy which also is its strength for critical path plots exist in this game and no two play throughs will be exactly the same. A very high quality open world game.… Expand

The world is incredibly detailed and beautiful to explore - I took so many screenshots that I lost count. The human element is surprisingly realistic and they designers really nailed the savage brutal elements of a medieval society during wartime - It's kind of like being thrown into an interactive episode of Game of Thrones. Along the way you will interact with a rich tapestry of complex characters and your choices will affect the outcome of events in surprising and unexpected ways - I was blown away by this and it makes the game really rewarding.

    The game play itself has a lot of depth and allows for plenty of customization as a good RPG should. The game features a dazzling array of crafting options for armor and weapons including some treasure hunts for special 'Witcher' gear; a deep alchemy component that allows you to create useful potions, bombs, and special monster decoctions; and a variety of skills and minor spells that you can select and develop as you gain experience. Part of what makes the game so fun is taking on an increasingly menacing variety of monsters to acquire the rare components needed to construct your upgrades.

    The game even features a highly addictive meta-game within that will have you challenging every NPC you can and trekking all over the world to find rare additions to your collection.

    My only very minor complaint is that the game is a bit easy especially on the lower difficulty levels. I am currently playing on Death March and mowing down opponents without much trouble (though I did die a lot on my first play through). The Witcher sense tracking aspect of the game could use a little refinement as it felt too linear and solving most quests mainly just involved finding enough glowing red clues until Geralt pieces things together for you. This was the only aspect of the game play that I felt to be a little lacking, but they pretty much knocked everything else out of the ballpark.    … Expand

But here you are getting so many little stories with surprising attentions to details. The main quest is intriguing but the ending is not perfect in my opinion. It is understandable that developers didn't have so much money compare to other companies so they could not do something epic in the end but it does not make a game any worse. Also, you MUST get expansions. Heart of Stone and Blood and Wine are surpassed in some things main game. I loved stories in these expansions.

Not only is it great in its own merit, but when compared to the last entry, there is little comparison as TW3 has improved on almost every aspect. I have put 60 hours into this game, and it hasn't crashed once. Something that took me away when playing this game is how truly unique each of the side quests are. In typical RPGs, the general rule for side quests is to go to point A, kill everything/retrieve item, and then return. The Witcher makes every side quest feel unique with interesting characters and objectives, and it manages to keep them all interesting.

    I only have a few gripes with this game; including the inability to wear helmets and the severe lack of armor variations. These of course are very minor complaints, and it wouldn't be normal for Geralt to wear helmets anyway. The combat can also get a bit repetitive, and it is generally a lot easier than the previous game in all regards. The music selection during combat is also very limited.

    My main issue with the game, however, is the gear system. Gear which you get is automatically leveled to whatever level you are when you obtain it. Meaning that if you get the legendary grandmaster witcher armor (which takes upwards of 10 hours to collect a full set), it is going to be totally obsolete after five levels. You also can't upgrade it, making it worthless if you choose to get it early on. If you decide to get it near the end of the game, it's also useless because you've already finished most if not all of the missions.    … Expand

This game is    I'm a fan of The Witcher saga. I've read books several times and played earlier games. This doesn't matter really, because this game is going to be just as enjoyable to somebody who knows nothing about The Witcher yet.

    This game is a good mixture of story-telling and gameplay mechanics. Exploration is also a big thing in this game and there's a lot of area to cover. This game is certainly not a substitute for Skyrim or Fallout which have very little story (which is not the most important aspect of these games). This game has a very good non-linear story which is even better if you know the franchise.

    The map is huge. I have invested over 130 hours and I can't say that I've been everywhere yet. There's a ton of stuff to do (outside quests) - hidden treasures, bandit camps and so on.

    The quests are very well written and most of them have better story than some other games. What is the most important - none of the quests felt like a chore and they aren't repetitive.

    Visuals are very good and as of now (patch 1.12) game runs most of the time at 30FPS with seldom dips to 25FPS. Unfortunately that wasn't the case in the past. Until patch 1.10 the bog was vary badly optimized and during night FPS dropped to constant 18-20FPS (which is FIXED NOW).

    Soundtrack and sounds are very good. The music has a Slavic vibe to it (well, the whole game does) and I really like it. Not only because I'm from Slavic country, but mostly because there are no other games like it.

    Combat is much improved compared to The Witcher 2. The game forces you to utilize all your tools in most of the fights on normal (suggested) difficulty. These tools are - potions, signs (magic) and bombs. On harder difficulties it's nearly impossible to do anything without using all of these.

    If I had to name the worst part of the game, it's the interface and inventory in particular. It's a SLOW mess. After you spend some time with the game and inventory fills up, opening its interface takes good 2 seconds. Switching between inventory categories takes these 2 seconds as well. If you have to get to 4th tab in inventory, you do the math.

    Another part I didn't like is the map. It's slow and often loads up regions as you scroll (you first see black background). I don't like the fact that map pauses at markers because in this game the map is FULL OF markers and it pauses all the time.

    Another issue are bugs. Most of the annoying ones are fixed now but it wasn't that way from the beginning . The good thing is that developer cares and patches were being released in a quick and professional manner.

    As a huge The Witcher franchise fan, I'm really happy for this game. I treasure it because I know we won't get anything like it for a long time now. If it wasn't for the interface, inventory and map I'd give it 10/10 because I believe that this game is truly unique. As it is, I'll give it a strong 9/10.

    PS.: The new expansion (Blood and Wine) will introduce interface redesign and I hope that inventory and map will become FAST.    … Expand

    The ACTION! Oh, the action. It does combat better than games that are built around combat (mordor), and that is saying a lot! I find myself wandering the wilds just looking to take down the next creature.

    Its satisfying, violent, swift and punchy combat compliments the deep lore and many storylines that the player comes across in the form of side quests or as small stories during the main quest. What amazed me is that all these little storylines are so mature that even though this is a fantasy game, it makes you feel that its characters are very human; you can feel their pain, misery, desperation as well as their hope to make things better.
    The world is absolutely massive, but as wide as it is, it is also deep. I want to explore every nook and cranny because every spot hides something interesting.
    The leveling system is superb, with a lot of depth that presents itself slowly enough so that it can be digested and eventually mastered.
    Everything in this game has a ton of layers to peel and while it is a challenging game, it nonetheless makes you feel like a superhuman badass that goes from hunting haunting beasts to subtly uncovering the human inside of Geralt and everybody else in its diverse cast of characters.
    Sure, there are glitches and bugs here and there, but it's a humongous world with hundreds of quests, armor, weapons, etc and everything is done in a masterful game.
    Not only this is full of quality, but its quantity is probably unbeatable. I expect to put in this hundreds of hours, so its value cannot be underestimated.
    To conclude, this is one of the best games I've ever played; something I just can't put down even though I spent a lot of hours in this world. But, for me, the undoubtable star of the show is its densely layered, rich, mature and always-interesting storylines, side-quests included.    … Expand

    Impressive storyline and amazing characters. The visuals are impressive enough to make you mindlessly roam the world.
    It is however a bit overhyped. As with any open world rpg it has the usual limitations with (side)quest patterns. The grind is very real.
    I would not recommend it on the higher difficulty settings, the difficulty curve is ridiculous. Death March starts off with you dying    Impressive storyline and amazing characters. The visuals are impressive enough to make you mindlessly roam the world.

    The Witcher 3: Endless Hunt
    Probably the best WRPG but main story is way too long and loses it's intensity.
    Also unclear quest designs sometimes and horse can be annoying.

    A little intimidating at the start, but when you wrap your head around the world and systems the sheer scale is breathtaking.

    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.
