    Bugs are transitory, fame will be eternal. Witcher 3 is an amazing looking game with clever plot and living, colorful world full of interesting characters and places to explore.

    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

    True masterpiece, better than Skyrim and Dragon Age for sure. The most beautiful world I have ever seen in a game, satisfying combat, great quest and storyline. Must have for all RPG fans

    If you are a fan of Red Dead and Skyrim you'll love this. It just came out but I put about six hours into it and I love nearly everything about it. There are some problems like bugs and glitches but they're not that apparent and are bound to be fixed soon

    Witcher 3 is one of the most moving game. Beautiful landscapes, multidimensional characters and not easy choises is unparalleled combination. Doesn't exist other game which real ethical problem. This is, imo Wither's greatest advantage - in many situations we can't choose good solution - in Jakier's and Triss's world lesser evil is often the best thing, we can do.

    One of the best games I have ever played. The main story is great, but what really is magnificent is the side quests! Complicated, interesting, makes you feel like a detective trying to solve a case, and it just doesn't get boring. I also have to mention the music, which is superb and makes the atmosphere even more intense. I highly recommend it to everyone, but for a RPG-lover it's a must-have.

    Beautiful world, amazing story. I have put in about 8 hours already and I know I'm not even 5% done. I will be spending a lot of time with this game. Atleast a 100 hours easily. I also own the PC version and although it looks a little bit better. I think this and bloodborne are the two best looking games out for the PS4 so far. CD RED came out with a home run here.

    O melhor RPG desta geração! Imersivo, historia tão complexa e profunda como a de Game of Thrones, jogabilidade excelente, personagens cativantes, mapa GIGANTESCO, e o elemento essencial em todo jogo de RPG, horas e horas de gameplay com infinitas coisas a se fazer e lugares a explorar. The Witcher 3 é a obra prima da CD PROJECT RED e pra mim um dos melhores jogos já feitos.

    Take a bit of Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption, The Wolf Among Us and add following ingredients: 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 story-lines on its own. This masterpiece is what you get!

    Truly a fantastic game. You can see CDprojekt Red really cares a ton about the gamer playing it. I mean in the box they provide a note that thanks you for purchasing their game, and also comes with the soundtrack, game manual, decals, a lore book and a map. And that's just for the standard version of the game. And then the game itself takes around 100 hours to complete, which is justTruly a fantastic game.

    Visuals 10/10 the open world is so beautiful. My wife said "WOW" the moment we saw the sun coming through a treeline.

    Gameplay: 9/10 Geralt still controls a little clunky however everything else has been streamlined and the combat is very satifying.

    Story: EVERY QUEST is interesting! You take an optional quest ? It isn't kill 10 X's and even the ones that seem like it's going to be mundane... have always panned out have an interesting twist or character development.

    Very little bugs considering the scope on my GTX 970/I5 4690k i do not know how it runs on lower stuff. Optimization has been the best i've experienced all year and i have every major release.

    Can't recommend enough. Don't listen to the children crying it's beautiful, deep, and will keep you playing for hours and hours.    … Expand

    I am enjoying this Wtcher as much as the previous installments of the Series. I like the open word the horse back riding while decapitating enemies. I like the Witcher Contracts aspect, it feels now you are doing what his profession is.

Gorgeous world, fantastic dialogs, immersive story, huge improvement in voice acting area since W2, gameplay, the amount of content, places to explore, and ofc, effin Geralt of Rivia, one of the best fantasy heroes of all time. I have to salute to Andrzej Sapkowski, because he crafted unforgettable world with amaizing characters.

    Don't listen to kids, that cries about "downgrade", game is still beautiful. PC gamers can tweak some settings and use stuff like Reshader or Sweet FX. It looks stunning and the storm, oh my god, the storm in this game is effin amizing, just can't describe it. Ofc we can argue about texture and lightning quality in some places, but with game of that scope it is impossible for it to be 100% perfect.

    I 100% recommend You this game. If You are a gamer and especially a RPG fan, You just CAN NOT MISS THAT TITLE.

    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.
