The game world starts out alive and vibrant with clever storytelling, a memorable cast, scenic views, and music suited for an epic adventure. Before you reach the middle of the game, the player can start to notice recurring flaws that never seem to go away. Simply finding an item in the inventory can be frustrating because the menu responds slow and there is so much clutter in your bag space. Moving around in the game world can be clunky, as well. Geralt often gets stuck in awkward spots or doesn't do what you want him to do. Falling a meager 10 feet results in annoyingly weak death. In my playthrough, I completely stopped using the crossbow and bombs because the aiming was incredibly stiff. Now I must say that the boss fights were fun and satisfying, but most fights in the game can be won with brute force. I appreciated the diversity among enemy types and some were particularly interesting to read about. However, those harpies and sirens flew above me for minutes instead of decisively attacking, which was a waste of time and ruined the pace of the action. At the very end, I felt that the conclusion to this series was solid. 8/10.… Expand

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an action role-playing game with a third-person perspective. Players control Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter known as a Witcher.[1] Geralt walks, runs, rolls and dodges, and (for the first time in the series) jumps, climbs and swims.[2][3] He has a variety of weapons, including bombs, a crossbow and two swords (one steel and one silver).[4] The steel sword isThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an action role-playing game with a third-person perspective. Players control Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter known as a Witcher.[1] Geralt walks, runs, rolls and dodges, and (for the first time in the series) jumps, climbs and swims.[2][3] He has a variety of weapons, including bombs, a crossbow and two swords (one steel and one silver).[4] The steel sword is used primarily to kill humans while the silver sword is more effective against creatures and monsters.[5] Players can draw out, switch and sheathe their swords at will. There are two modes of melee attack; light attacks are fast but weak, and heavy attacks are slow and strong.[6] Players can block and counter enemy attacks with their swords.[4] Swords have limited endurance and require regular repair.[7] In addition to physical attacks, Geralt has five magical signs at his disposal: Aard, Axii, Igni, Yrden and Quen.[8] Aard prompts Geralt to unleash a telekinetic blast, Axii confuses enemies, Igni burns them, Yrden slows them down and Quen offers players a temporary, protective shield.[9] The signs use stamina, and cannot be used indefinitely.[10] Players can use mutagens to increase Geralt's magic power. They lose health when they are attacked by enemies, although wearing armour can help reduce health loss. Health can be restored with meditation or consumables, such as food and potions.[4] Players occasionally control Ciri, Geralt's adoptive daughter who can teleport short distances.[11] The game has responsive, advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and dynamic environments. The day-night cycle influences some monsters (and their powers), as a werewolf becomes powerful during the night of a full moon.[12] Players can learn about their enemies and prepare for combat by reading the in-game bestiary.[13] When they kill an enemy, they can loot its corpse for valuables.[13] Geralt's witcher sense enables players to find objects of interest, including items that can be collected or scavenged.[14] Items are stored in the inventory, which can be expanded by purchasing upgrades.[13] Players can sell items to vendors[15] or use them to craft potions and bombs.[16][17] They can visit blacksmiths to craft new weapons and armour with what they have gathered.[18] The price of an item and the cost of crafting it depend on a region's local economy.[3]

    The game focuses on narrative, and has a dialogue wheel which allows players to choose how to respond to non-player characters. Geralt must make decisions which change the state of the world and lead to 36 possible endings, affecting the lives of in-game characters.[19] He can have a romantic relationship with some of the game's female characters by completing certain quests.[20] In addition to the main quests, books offer more information on the game's world.[13] Players can begin side quests after visiting a town's noticeboard.[13] These side missions include Witcher Contracts (elaborate missions requiring players to hunt monsters)[21] and Treasure Hunt quests, which reward players with top-tier weapons or armour.[13] Players earn experience points by completing missions.[3] When a player earns enough experience, Geralt's level increases and the player receives ability points.[22] These points may be used on four skill trees: combat, signs, alchemy and general. Combat upgrades enhance Geralt's attacks and unlock new fighting techniques; signs upgrades enable him to use magic more efficiently, and alchemy upgrades improve crafting abilities. General upgrades have a variety of functions, from raising Geralt's vitality to increasing crossbow damage.[10] The game's open world is divided into several regions. Geralt can explore each region on foot or by transportation, such as a boat. Roach, his horse, may be summoned at will.[23] Players can kill enemies with their sword while riding Roach,[24] but an enemy presence may frighten the horse and unseat Geralt.[13] Points of interest may be found on the map, and players receive experience points    … Expand

The game is based on the work of Andrzej Sapkowski, and is the third entry in The Witcher video game series.

    Story: Very Impressive and interesting, characters are well defined and tied to the plot. The stakes are high, and the world deals with multiple subjects like war, political instability, racism and fanatics.

    The world: Very beautiful, very atmospheric with fitting music and it is huge. Maybe even too huge.

    Enemies: The game offers many monsters to slay, each unique with weaknesses and strenghts. Learning about each individual monster during Witcher Contracts builds suspense, and gets you on the edge of your seat as you search for clues. As you do this, Geralt talks about the deadly features of your target, and plays on your imagination as to what the monster will do and look like.

    Controls and fighting: User friendly, but tough to get into. In the beginning you'll get punished for mashing the attack buttons, but once you learn to be patient, dodge and attack at the right time, you'll be able to fight like an one man army. When it comes to moving around outside of combat, there are some strange design choices. The default movement speed is jogging, and Geralt makes some ridiculous rolls when he walks down stairs or jumps off low ledges.

    Technical aspect: The game scores a negative point in this category. In many instances while playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, game breaking bugs appear. For example, during the mission with the Whispering Hillock, the sound of the game completely fades and won't return unless you restart the application. This breaks the immersion a lot as the dialogue is gone. Later on, skins on monsters cropped up on the head, which made the model invisible. This did not stop the monster from clawing the **** out of me with no option to fight back. Again, this breaks the immersion. Things like this happen a lot throughout the game. But what is worst, is that these bugs have been present in the game since 2015. Considering i'm writing this review in 2019, it is unacceptable that the game still has game breaking bugs 4 years after release. Shame on you CD Projekt RED.

    In summary, this game is excellent, with many impressive elements in it. However, if it hadn't broken my immersion so many times (especially considering it was my second playthrough) it could have been a mind-blowing game. It earns a 9/10 from me.    … Expand

Soundtrack and voices are also excellent, and the plot is good (although too slow). You can choose the dialogues like in Mass Effect or you can go straight to the main dialogues if you want. Sometimes you feel like a detective, like in L.A. Noire. The first thing I did was to low the joysticks sensitivity from 1 to 0'8. My complaints are: the tiny letters (lucky me I've a huge tv and I don't have much problem), another thing is that when you jump or fall from not so high places you lose health, the last thing to mention would be that sometimes you feel that the story advance too slow. If you like rpgs you're gonna love it. If you like games with only action and more action maybe this is not you're kind of game. To sum up, I think this game has taken all the good things from other games and have made it a must have. Advices: stick to the main missions unless you want to raise your level or you feel to do this or that sidequest. The only sidequests that I'd recommend you to do would be the ones related with main characters. About magic, I normally used the Quen sign, but you can use whatever you want. I'd recommend to improve the Axia sign if you want to save some money, and do horse races to improve your horse and have more room for your things. It probalby took me 60 hours or so. About sidequets, there are some of them that will be cancel at some point if you don't complete them and you only go for the main missions, still, you don't know which ones are so, I wouldn't worry too much. Now that I've finished this game I'll probably do a couple of high level sidequests or hunts and that's all.… Expand

The game makes you really feel like a witcher, with well detailed quests, activities and random events. The map is large, with plenty of things to do, but, to be honest, it is a little buggy, mostly in the underwater shipwrecks. There is a variety of weapons and armor to collect and trade with the merchants in the game, which are well realised and plentyfull around the map. A variety of enemies also exists, making the game less repetitive than other RPG-s,avoiding reskining the enemies.
    A grand minus of the game is the underwater combat, which could have been much better,I would tell you more about it, but I will let you experience it yourself.
    Overall, you will enjoy the game, if you let its problems aside and focus on the overall experience.

Allerdings solltet ihr euch von Augenfreude und Naturromantik nicht täuschen lassen: Land und Leute sind von den Narben eines endlosen Krieges gezeichnet. Rassenhass, Verbrechen und Selbstsucht sind an der Tagesordnung, was der Welt eine Art grimmige Glaubwürdigkeit verleiht.

    Überall wird gelitten, geflucht, gekotzt und gestorben. Dementsprechend kümmert sich Geralt auch häufig um die Belange des kleinen Mannes, anstatt von Fanfaren begleitet hohlen Bombast vom Himmel regnen zu lassen. Dass man dabei von den Geschichten zum Teil wirklich berührt wird, spricht für die Entwickler. Kritik gibt es von mir für das Kampfsystem, das meiner Meinung nach ein wenig direkter sein könnte und für die langen Ladezeiten. Bonuspunkte gibt's für den Sound: Die Natur in einem Videospiel hat noch nie besser geklungen.    … Expand

As a fan of Witcher II I played this hoping for something better, and I got it. Despite Witcher II's excellent setup and result, this sequel betters it in pretty much every way. The open world style creates a sense of freedom where you can find hidden away traders or random scenarios where someone needs help, it also creates tat chance where you could run into a creature that you have no chance of defeating and are foced to flee from. I hope they don't bodge the tv series of this franchise as it would not do justice for these games as they are top of the line entertainment. The DLC I have also smashed the granny out of and both are well worth the time introducing new, and sometimes terrifying, characters with intricate plotlines that compliment the world around Geralt of Rivia and his medieval posse. Just play it because words alone do not do this game justice.… Expand

    And to find him you gotta go find 5 of his **** girlfriends and talk to each and every one of them, each one more boring than the last.

    This is how my experience with The Witcher 3 has been going so far. Its always throwing more fetch quests at you. Despite the interesting side quests and Witcher Contracts and an outstanding world, the game's pacing is all over the place, the combat is Ass Creed shallow, and the game has way too many technical issues on ps4 which are backed by extremely clunky controls and robotic animation during dialogue. I, personally, will never understand the fanfare behind this game and why its been praised to the heavens, bug I can see a good game in this
    package which is why the rating is a 7. Play it if you're a fan of the books, or if you'rethe kind of player that can lose him/herself in a gorgeous open world like this one and doesn't feel bored after dozens of fetch quests in story missions, but don't go in there thinking you'll something incredible out of it.

    Unlike most other games with fancy graphics but mostly only touches the surface of the storyline as well as each character's inner world, Witcher 3 spared no efforts in building the most realistic characters possible, and really spent time in each story or tasks. Each second I spent in the game was vivid, as if I was there talking, exploring, fighting or flirting with real persons. Each characters are lovable - they love fiercely, fight honorably, stick to their code of living or cling to their troubled past. They can be charismatic, humorous, artistic, or dangerous. And all of them are put into this epic, incredible world.

The game is colossal & amazingly excellent in every perspective.

    World Design :
    Game world is colossal & gorgeous, excellently designed with exclusive & extensive details such as fallen trees are regrown just like in real life, burned or cut down portions of forests, Dead whale on a shore & various type of fish under water are just very few such examples.
    It is a Living breathing world monsters will also attack other animals, wolves will hunt rabbits & dears. During cloudy weather you will be able to see clouds moving in the sky & shooting stars at night.
    Game have excellently implemented dynamic weather cycle, day and night cycle as you will see a dramatic difference between day and night life.

    Visuals :
    Graphically game is stunning and even more gorgeous after the latest patch. Animations are top class and facial animations are impressive.

    Narrative :
    Story is impressive and easy to understand, no matter how many or all the side quests you play; you still wont get lost. Game offers the opportunity to enjoy company of beautiful characters & decent humor.
    Choosing dialogues is one of the best part of the game & Dialogue options are one of the best with various types of choices with provides an enjoyable experience.

    Unique Features :
    Witcher 3 have some unique features that you wont find any where else such as Geralt beard physics. Other examples are :- On Skellige : Gedyneith (Name Of Place) there is A House Under A tree when you visit that place for the 1st time you will see a dude plowing in soil but when you go there later you will see plants. You will see many changes in dandelions inn & main hall in Kaer Trolde castle throughout the game.

    Combat :
    Combat is enjoyable, addictive, tactical and superb both ways offensive & defensive. AI is intelligent & will use various defensive measures. Despite high level enemies you still can defeat them with tactics & patience.
    Other than basic close combat and ranged weapon, there are bombs & sign abilities (Basically Magic). You can use your ability points on skills but will choose wisely b/z you cant acquire them all as it is an RPG With choices & consequences, But you can reset them with potion.

    Other activities :
    Beside side quests there are witcher contracts and treasure hunting, you can also participate in horse racing, boxing & playing cards. The card game is also very fun & extremely addictive.

    Replayability :
    I doubt that some one will play this game once as of the colossal dialogue choices. The game felt vastly different while selecting different dialogues through second game play. I finished it twice and i am gone buy Complete addition & play it all over again.    … Expand

    I give it the 6/10 because I can appreciate how dense it is with lore and background. It's pretty cool that you could read some lore in one of the novels, and then find something about it in the games. There's a lot to chew on, and if your a fan of the books you'd probably love the opportunity to play as Geralt. I can appreciate that, but it just didn't justify the hype for me.    … Expand

    Western RPGs haven't changed much over the past 20 years. Every 5 years or so, I'd play one and find out that besides graphics, it's essentially the same or worse than Baldur's gate. But The Witcher 3 at least takes a noticeable step forward, with small improvements all around.

Every 5 years or so, I'd play one and find out that besides graphics, it's essentially the same or worse than Baldur's gate. But The Witcher 3 at least takes a noticeable step forward, with small improvements all around.

    Western RPGs (WRPGs) normally have a very basic and short main plot, with the majority of the game comprised of unrelated subplots, side quests, and exploration. The Witcher 3 isn't different here, but improves on most of this when compared to past WRPGs. But it's far from perfect and likely won't change the minds of people who aren't fans of the genre.

    The side activities take up the vast majority of the game. This is definitely a game for people who want to roam about in an open world, exploring and doing random tasks for its population. As someone who doesn't like these sort of activities, I actually had a great time during the first 10 hours of doing this. Saving villages, finding hidden treasure, and hunting down monsters while going place to place in my quest to get information on my daughter (the main quest) was great. But there's only so many different side activities, and they're eventually repeated, several times.

    What immersed me during those first hours is that the world is more real than most WRPGs I've played. The NPCs, while not very talkative, did a good job convincing me that they lived in the world. Quest givers would interrupt me and give me convincing reasons why I should help them. And all of this was taking place while I was on the main quest to obtain information, so all side activities felt like they were potentially useful for that purpose. This is opposed to other WRPGs were you have an urgent main quest, but it's somehow put on hold whenever you feel like doing side quests.

    The other WRPG I played most recently is Dragon Age Inquisition. To compare the two: The side content in The Witcher 3 is much more interesting, but just about anything is more interesting than Dragon Age Inquisition's boring and inconsequential fetch quests. The world is simply more believable and feels less like developers randomly made up things or plopped down monsters on an evenly-spaced grid. The protagonist is much more believable since he's a set character and not a blank-slate made up by the player.

    As I became bored of the side content, I focused more on the main plot: finding your daughter, and the things that come afterwards. It's mostly believable, but it's an average drama at best. At least it doesn't immediately thrust us into a "save the world from the bad guy with stupid motivations" plot. This is better than most video game stories, but isn't up to par with the best that video games have to offer. You might be disappointed if you're looking for a story with deeper meaning or something comparable to the best fiction that humanity has to offer.

    All characters are fully voice acted. Unfortunately, all of the voice actors aren't equally good, so if you're one of the few who can point out bad voice actors, you'll find a few here. It's also a bit jarring when most characters use a British accent, but some large roles are played by people with cartoon-quality American accents.

    Combat is fully action-based and isn't amazing. It's serviceable, but clunky. I never felt like I had accurate control of my character, and primarily resorted to spamming the same attack with an occasional spell. And that's really all you need to complete the game on the normal difficulty level.

    The in-game menus are slow, swimming is horribly clunky, and horse riding is about as good as the combat. The game doesn't feel very polished and it can really hurt the immersion for some.

    And then there's the bugs. This is the buggiest PS4 game I've experienced. Clipping models during cut scenes, invisible swords/gloves, dialogue overlapping, monster corpses with required quest items on them disappearing, getting stuck, full game crashes, and load of other issues that really hurt immersion for me. Well, at least the automatic 10-minute autosave comes in handy, so I never lost much progress.

    And one last thing that really bugged me: The mini map. The game's navigation and quests depend on it. You're rarely told where a monster is or your next quest objective is. NPCs seem to know that you have a magical map that tells you exactly where everything is, complete with a dotted line that shows you the quickest path to take. It wouldn't be so bad if I could ignore it, but it's simply not possible. You receive so little information from NPCs that you'll never find out where to go unless you follow the mini map. Just count this as another thing that takes away from the game's immersion.

    So, this is likely an amazing game for WRPG fans, or for those who easily become addicted to side content in open worlds. But for me, I found it to be a slightly above average experience.    … Expand

    - Very easy (I played in 'Blood and Broken Bones' difficulty, Please play on 'Death March' difficulty if you want to enjoy the combat).
    - The combat system is ok, but the enemies set of movements and AI is poor.
    - The story is quite poor till the last 5/6 hours of the game. It´s summarised in: Find this person. in order ot do so, you need to finde 20 people you don´t care about who ask you to find other people you care even less about.
    - The word looks quite simple and there is a lack of landscape variety.    … Expand

    One of the best games, if not the best I've ever played. Everything is great here about the game-play before the voice acting (in particular in Russian). Great respect to the developers from me, this is the best representative of the genre. Thank you for the many unforgettable hours of life.

    This game has everything a RPG game needs and more. Great storytelling, interesting characters and an amazing world that holds it all together. The only thing that takes away from the experience is that the game play is clunky. That can lead to you getting annoyed from time to time.

    Easily one of the best game of all time.

    The gameplay in Witcher 3 is full of strategy and variety from builds to fight approach, the mechanics, and the amount of stuff you can do, variety in monsters and utility you do and take, exploring and different maps which offer different lore and different environment, interesting crafting, great lore/explanation behind everything in the game    Easily one of the best game of all time.

    The gameplay in Witcher 3 is full of strategy and variety from builds to fight approach, the mechanics, and the amount of stuff you can do, variety in monsters and utility you do and take, exploring and different maps which offer different lore and different environment, interesting crafting, great lore/explanation behind everything in the game (unlike other games they dont just throw **** at your face they actually invest in making it logical and well supported by the lore).

    The Story is one of the best in gaming history. Side quests have meaning and care behind them (not all but even the small ones and contracts are far from being bad)
    Characters are unique and offer great development with distinct personalities. Choices actually matter and have consequences on the game.

    Witcher has good animation and graphics, great art design, great music and voice acting, fun and strategical combat, a lot of gameplay options and innovations to the RPG gameplay (set a new standard) it has a good plot (pacing, content, folklore, choices, content, engaging premise, good ending) with very few issues it has also the best cast in a game imo (great diversity of characters, amazing personalities, good development, good backstory on a lot of them, they have their presence, the DLC villain is one of the best villains of all time in gaming he is not one-dimensional, you feel the characters you feel they are alive & are part of the story and part of your journey example is Regis, it also has some nice catharsis for the main character Geralt) The game also offers high replay value due to different builds and choices.

    The Combat is better than most other RPG games, it is not the best combat ever sure but its still good for an RPG story driven game. You can dodge 2 ways roll and sidestep, you can use different strategies like bombs, oils and crossbows you can unlock new moves, you have signs and upgrades for them and each enemy has some different moves for an rpg this is enough. There is a lack of choice of weapons sure, but unfortunately that is because Geralt is a swordsman and the game should adapt (or adopt?) its source accurately.

    Maybe the best game ever made.

    I couldn't get into the game. It is extremely boring and dull. The voice acting was nails on the chalkboard annoying. The combat is very simple and shallow. I had to get a refund and get myself something else.

The combat isn't as deep as in the Souls games but it's still better than in most RPGs. I enjoyed it a lot. The quality of the side quests is second to none and represents the standard by which I judge all similar games. I spent over 500 hours in the main game alone, not even counting the expansions, and it enraptured and captivated me the whole time and in a way very few games have.… Expand

    witcher is the clear example of the word overrated for games this game is good but it has way too many flaws and the only reason of why people loved it is just because cd projeckt red has given the masses what they want and if you give the masses what they want you obviously will have its support

Simply put, it is the best experience a video game can offer. It's been three years since it came out, so I'm sure you've heard all the praises of its story and characters. So let me talk about some of the criticism the game has received. If it's not your type of game, I can understand that. The reviews of 6s and 7s I truly understand. I strongly disagree with them, but I can understand if someone just didn't connect with the RPG mechanics. But, and this is a huge but, all the criticisms I've read for The Witcher 3 are overplayed. Seeing people rate the game a 3/10 over its combat is a disgrace. I never found the combat to be lacking in any way. Yes, it's based on timing. What else would it be based on? That's not a rhetorical question, I'm trying to think of a game where physical attacks weren't based in part on your timing. More importantly, combat being based solely on timing is a blatant lie. You MUST use your Witcher abilities (the signs) to overpower enemies, both humans and monsters. Carefully dodging and dancing behind a shield-bearer to strike him doesn't seem to be a thing of timing, does it? Playing the game on a higher difficulty (highly recommended) makes you use the full Witcher arsenal of potions and blade oils. It makes for a very interesting, intricate combat experience.
    In fact, a criticism I surprisingly couldn't find anyone talking about is the disparity of stats in loot. It feels weird to me, to complete a maze set by a dead mage, and receiving a sword (Having Geralt name the sword about his adventure is a very nice touch), or having a master craftsmen gift me a special sword, and then later on, finding a sword with much higher attack power in the hands of some random henchmen you kill. This is a nitpick, but still something that bothered me. However, I'd be incredibly biased to give this game anything less than a 10 over a nitpick.
    So many great things about this game like the story, dialogue, sense of adventure, the most amazing unique quests, and even the smaller things like the addictive music and the card game: Gwent.
    If you're still stumbling around Metacritic looking at reviews, trying to decide if you want to get this game, then let me be the first to tell you: This game is a must-play. No matter the platform you play on, it is one of the best, if not the best, experiences I've had playing video games, and I've been playing games for over 15 years.
    I can not repeat this enough, it is my game of the generation.    … 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.
