    I started the game, and after the first 10 hours I was underwhelmed. I stuck with it, and by the time the credits rolled (including both DLC's), I felt I had just completed one of the greatest games of all time.

    One of my favorite games of all time. When I beat it the first time along with the DLC's I sat there thinking what am I going to do now? Loved everything about this game

    Ни один язык мира не содержит слов, для описания того, насколько эта игра прекрасна. ВСЕ аспекты, от графики до атмосферы, от сюжета до персонажей, на недосягаемом уровне. Жаль на этом сайте нету оценки 11/10

    Great story, great world, good main character, still the best RPG, if not the best game of the last 10 years. Enjoyable on all difficulties. Great value for money in the DLCs especially Blood and Wine.
    This is the Game that made me pick up gaming as a hobby again in 2015 after not having played any since Ocarina of Time.

    the word this game takes to heart is investment, they created a weird that is filled to the brim with things for immersion, the politics, the people and how they will even share there opinions on what is happening, as people would in real life, you meet an emperor as he requests you to find his daughter, but he only cares just because he is his daughter, meaning that he needs someone tothe word this game takes to heart is investment, they created a weird that is filled to the brim with things for immersion, the politics, the people and how they will even share there opinions on what is happening, as people would in real life, you meet an emperor as he requests you to find his daughter, but he only cares just because he is his daughter, meaning that he needs someone to follow and become leader, Geralt(who you play as, and the person on the greatest cover art of all time) only accepts to do it because he just wants her to be safe, because he knew her since a young child just learning to just pick up a sword. Geralt himself just wants to do as much as he can to stay out of it, as a witcher he shunned for being a mutated freak, he just believes he can only play his part. the story and characters along with the world you walk through is so lived in, fully realized to build this fantastical, beauty but yet so real world. one moment you may be helping a man find his wife, to then find out that maybe all of it could be staged, but or is real, you really never know cause the quests always present a possible choice, you never know, to then accidentally find a ruined building with a cyclops around there just roaming the area for you to fight and take down, and once you take him down you can reap the rewards which so happens to be the master-crafted version blueprint of one of the best armor sets in the game. the sense of wonder, excitement and terror for what ever new thing you might find, like a new side quest or new cave or treasure to collect. the amount of monsters with a WHOLE FREAKING bestiary to read and look at the many monsters of the game, read on little details with a whole page to look at and the main reason to read it, to find out a monsters weaknesses which are very conveniently showcased. the combat, while "generic, as I will use lightly" makes sure that at the heart of it is strategy, using the right damage oil on the right enemy, what bomb to use at this moment, when to swing, not dark souls but it gets challenging, but never impossible as I decided to play on hard, to then eventually change it to very hard(death march) when I got a grasp of a good amount of the enemies and wanted more of a challenge and that is what I played the most on. the reason that makes the game challenging is the enemies, they will do what they can to overwhelm you, or use a couple tricks they can have up there sleeves, a great example is the werewolf, they are already rather aggressive, but around lower the 40% of health loss they will roar and start to consistently regenerate heath which puts you in the possession to be as aggressive as they are, which means reacting to his fast swings and chasing him down if he runs away, a basterdly foe, but a lot of fun to fight.. plus no one fight in the game takes to long before it might get stale, they have the perfect energy to keep the pace going of any fight whether or not it is a game of patience or reaction and time. plus the kind of experimentation you have in the skill tree is just the coolest, specialize in Igni and Aard just because, sure why not. or just be raw straight physical sword damage, absolutely. and I believe the most important part to talk about is the games incredible storytelling and the incredible story. the writing making each individual aspect of there character developed as a true identity and facet of everything they do(no spoilers). you feel for what they do because it all comes back to what people would do in real life and the this is what these characters do, more then this is what happens in the story, which is the best kind of character writing. emotional choices over understandable choices, this game will make you see the kind of person you are on the spectrum, and then you get to see the results of YOUR actions, and also how you influenced other characters actions to change there ways or indulge or accept what they are, for the better or for the worst on both ends. the choices you make can make the player terrified of making the wrong choice, and hoping that it could have the best outcome.
    But I will not spoil any of the story, I really only did that when I talked about the politics, because there is so much game that all must play to see, to watch come down, and wash away the player and envelop and enjoy, with the amount of stuff to do, from rather pointless stuff to do like go to a brother and get laid with which wastes your coin, to LEARNING A WHOLE CARD GAME MADE JUST FOR THIS GAME, called gwent which is way to complicated to explain, but collecting cards to make your deck more powerful by defeating other players is just the coolest hobby to just include for fun, and it is so well designed that it is so hard to believe it is just a sure why not for the game.
    it exceeds expectations of just being an RPG but an experience, This is one of the greatest games of all time. and one of my top 10 favorite games of all time.    … Expand

    Superb game with great emphasis on story. And I love it.
    Only downside is bugs - game crashed on me multiple times, even after installing the latest patches. But the game is so good I can deal with it.

Im not sure what really to say about this game I'd like to praise it for being so large and it is of high quality and the effort really shows through however there are a lot of aspects of the gameplay that really bother me. 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

It's a huge world to explore and there are more quests and storylines than any other rpg to date. However, story telling is both great and sometimes flat.

    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.
