    Witcher 3 is without doubt possibly the best game to be released in years, the visuals, gameplay, story and audio are outstanding. The characters are well written as well and you get to care about them in a way I could never do with DA:I.

    My only complaint is that sometimes the camera can be clunky (in fights up close you can get lost easily), but that is really minor.

    You will need a good PC to run at maximum settings but even at medium to high it still looks better than most games out there.    … Expand

    I'm writing this review a full month after launch. I want to qualify my 10 by saying this is NOT a perfect game. Here's feedback I think you'll find helpful:

NPCs have never been more memorable or    I'm writing this review a full month after launch. I want to qualify my 10 by saying this is NOT a perfect game. Here's feedback I think you'll find helpful:

    The Good:

    *Story - I can't say enough (now that I'm really 75% done with the game - something no one who reviewed it the first week could say) how the story here is the bread and butter. NPCs have never been more memorable or believable. Side quests are more like "side stories" where Geralt stars as super-fantasy detective rather than fetch quests. Counterpoint: There are so many stories that even this new inventive quest style feels a bit stale by the end of it unless you take breaks.

    *The World - The first 10 - 30 hours of Witcher 3 are dominated by the swamp lands and plains of No Man's Land and White Orchard. I believe Developers would totally change White Orchard now if they could and give it the grand depth of Skellege and some of the more remote parts of the world. It's huge, it's got everything you want to see from a western fantasy RPG. Counterpoint: There is nothing here that hasn't been done in western RPGS before - nothing like the hard-to-imagine landscapes Final Fantasy creates.

    *Crafting & Loot: Collecting and upgrading Witcher Gear is a blast. There are 5 sets (Serpent, Bear, Wolf, Griffin, Cat) and each has at least 4 tiers of upgrades. The plans for these upgrades are hidden throughout the world in usually inventive out-of-the-way places that are fun to experience and explore. The gear looks very cool - and by the time you get it to high level, the complete look for Geralt is something you'll enjoy seeing in cut scenes, and you even have a passive ability you can level up to enhance the gear you wear based on type. Counterpoint: You don't have enough storage to keep all the gear you'd like to build and mats so the game forces too much inventory management to enjoy the crafting system fully

    The Bad:

    *The Controls - Everyone agrees this is the worst part of the game. It's worst when you are trying to talk to someone or open a chest and you are right next to them yet you cannot click on them. You tap your controller and you somehow bump into them, causing a scene and not helping. Totally breaks immersion. In battle the controls are bad as well - but not as annoying as interacting with npcs and objects. Particularly, the roll often over shoots and objects from the environment that shouldn't cause enemies to be out of reach. (I didn't talk about the horse, but I could have). Counterpoint: The devs have released several patches to improve the worst aspects of the game. I do believe this will improve moving forward.

    *The Difficulty - The game is cake - literally. I started on normal, was at hard by hour 20 and was at hardest difficulty by hour 40. I suggest all serious gamers start on the hardest setting. Why? Because it's most fun to play when you engage with the systems and role play Geralt. You're a monster hunting detective and you need to use everything at your power to overcome these awesome beasts. Epic battles where you worry about your potions and sign use are far more satisfying than hack-n-slash that happens at normal difficulty. I do hope an extra hard setting is released along with NG+ at some point. Counterpoint: This seems like the type of balancing that can still take place, so maybe this complaint goes away.

    *The Size - no matter how you slice it, the game is so big it's overwhelming. There is simply no way to do everything in it with any reasonable expectation of finishing soon. It must be handled like Skyrim and Fallout - given over to those games that you just accept you may never do everything in. The problem with this is that the way its presented really wants to make you see everything in it more than Skyrim. This produces fatigue at a certain point. Counterpoint: Anything lengthy produces fatigue - like a Marathon, or getting a law degree. So you just need to weigh if Witcher 3 is still delivering on what you want out of video games or if there is something else out there. I don't really see this as a serious complaint, but it is true and I do feel fatigue and need to seek other games to play every so often.

    For me - the 10 represents that I've spent more time and obsessed more over this world than I have any other game in years. I highly recommend it.    … Expand

    Witcher 3 wild hunt is a paradise for a classic RPG fan. there is just nothing like it in the realm of Role playing games in recent games. I think CD project has achieved something far more valuable than companies which try to just impress the audience by fake tricks.

    This is a huge one! I mean… huge. Apart from the size of the world, the number of quests, sidequests with their own story, nothing is generic, every part of the world is different. There are a few bugs with navigartion NPCs, the horse, inventory, wchich are a bit annoying but the game itself gives you so much pleasure that you forget about them. Grat work.

I've logged over 100+ hours into the Witcher 3 and I've still got a **** tonne of quests, exploration and gawking to do. Even if you haven't played previous Witcher games, i still highly recommend this, as this game dwarfs all other AAA titles within the past 5 years. In fact, this isn't a game, it's an experience, as you play you feel like you are an actual Witcher, wondering town to town, picking up contracts, getting caught up in feuds or local scrummages , and then happening across a quest that will take you on a rollercoaster ride of horror and wonderment. It's this kind of organic storytelling that is missing from other modern AAA RPGs, as it combines the flowing and random nature of say a Rockstar game, with the insane scope of an RPG as big as Skyrim. So fellow Gamers, I urge you to play and experience this game, as it's a new Benchmark within the Open World and the RPG genres… Expand

    Very good game, however not without flaws. Various bugs throughout the game keep this from truly being a masterpiece. I wish I would have waited a few months to play this game so they would have all the bugs patched and make it a more enjoyable experience. Very long game if you explore and do the side quests, expect to invest at least 200+ hours to fully clear the maps.

    This game wasn't on my radar at first but it intrigued me so I picked it up and I'm glad I did. I'm so tempted to give this game a 10 but there are a couple of problems that can't be excused like the controls under water being unbearable and the camera being unreliable at times. It's a great game with lots to do and everything has a stroy that is well thought out and interesting.

    * The witcher sense mode combined with the so-so control scheme AND the unresponsive "press x to examine" is just a chore. I hate every part of the game that tells me to search an area using my witcher senses and there are a lot of them.
    * The durability system where you have to find a blacksmith to constantly repair is tedious, as blacksmith vs game area ratio is stupid.
    * I once spent two hours in fallout new vegas, clearing out an area of monsters that were far above my level. I got something for it in the end. There was excitement and a sense of reward. In witcher, even if you breath in the main quest, you get experience. If you complete a side quest (they ARE repetetive) you get less rewarded. I would've prefered less quests and more reward.
    * The game does everything for you. Having the minimap tell you where to go everytime makes the game more dumb than it should. Where bloodborne didn't tell you anything, witcher tells you everything. To the point you stop reading uninteresting dialouge and just follow the yellow dot.

    The game is beautiful, well crafted but is lacking something that a guy like me, who has a family and limited amount of time to play, appreciates most in a game. It's not that fun. I keep playing but I'm not sure why anymore. Most of the frustration I guess comes from long loading times and the general awkwardness of the game. You constantly start-stop, getting stuck, go from A to B only to go to C and back to A and then to D. Oh my god. I love RPGs. This is something else.    … Expand

    What I will say is that I have been gaming seriously for close to 25 years now and have played pretty much everything in that time (bar a few exceptions). I never played The Witcher and I really couldn't get into The Witcher 2, as I found the world very restricted and the combat appalling.

    Witcher 3 is possibly the best game I have ever played. I'm not sure whether anything here is revolutionary but Project Red have basically taken every good idea from games such as Skyrim, Fable, Red Dead Redemption, World of Warcraft etc and created something that surpasses them all. It's the attention to detail here that really boggles the mind. This game has been designed with the player in mind and what would make their lives easier whilst allowing and encouraging the freedom to roam and explore a magical world.

    I have never experienced such a desolate, war-strewn and desperate land in all gaming and it really lives and breathes due to stunning weather and day/night cycles. I've sunk over 20 hours into it so far and have barely scratched the surface and the single complaint i have is that it's too easy to steal items whilst their owners simply stare at you.

    7)When you buy the game NEW (You should because buying used doesn't give profits to the devs.) You get a thank you letter, stickers, a map, a history booklet on the game, an instruction manual(rare on PS4 games), and a Disc Soundtrack.
    8)Customizability (This game is the true defenition of ROLE PLAYING GAME)
    9)Geralt is hilarious in my opinion
    10)Hot girl characters... LOL JK
    11)16 pieces of FREE DLC (2 each week for 8 weeks)
    Seriously, buy this game. NEW. SUPPORT THE DEVS. ESPECIALLY CD PROJEKT RED. THEY ARE PERFECT IMO.    … 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.
