    The Witcher 3 is a excellent game that has both great characters and story. Not all of it is perfect though, for example the world isn't the best to explore to say Skyrim. There just isn't that much to gain from exploring as the items you get aren't that interesting.

The main quests are pretty good and interesting enough to make you want to keep going. The side quests are great there's just a lot of variety in them despite most of them being focused on hunting monsters. The monsters you hunt will rarely be the same kind that you hunt from a different contract. The stories are way more interesting in these side quests than other open world RPGs as I actually did care what was happening. The pros far outweigh the cons and is easily a GOTY contender… Expand

    The Witcher III: Wild Hunt is one of the most rewarding and satisfying experiences to grace modern video games.

    Cons:
    - Occasional Bugs and Crashes
    - Some strange, sometimes even bad writing (never in the main quest, mostly in side quests and not frequent enough to detract too much)
    - Combat and skill trees can be repetitive and I went through this game with 120 hours logged and barely used potions or oils.
    - Inventory Management was how I spent too much of my time (uh oh accidentally picked up a frying pan again)

    Fantastic open world RPG. It has an enthralling story that really pushes you to just play it. You have this intense drive to play the game, it's great. The game does have some technical issues, and the combat isn't that great, but if you can look past those faults I suggest picking this gem up.

    Easily the best written and developed RPG game in the latter years.

    A massive experience with interesting story masterfully crafted in a rare way you don't see these days. From beginning to end it seems it was done by people who loved their craft and cared deeply about the end users.

I have received a platinum trophy on this game and beaten the expansion and played for over 300 hours and am still looking forward to the next expansion. It deals with adult themes that are not dealt with in many other RPGs and the characters have much better voice acting, expressions... long story short, I just cared instead of rapidly skipping through the nonsense dialogue with a feeling that it was childish. I could go on and on about the combat, exploration, etc, but it's all good.… Expand

    From most aspects this game is perfect; however, I found a slight shortcoming as I had played for a significant amount of time. I found the combat to become boring. I will say, this could be because I was playing it one specific way when most players change their play style so, it could have been in how I was playing the game. Nevertheless, I found the combat to get a bit repetitive at the middle of the game towards the end and that detracted from my experience.

    Its slight flaws in combat are the only thing stopping me from giving this game a 10/10.    … Expand

The world is amazing, the plot and stories are amazing and you want to play each one of them, even smaller side quests. When i played other games like Assasin for example i was mostly playing main plot without trying to do every single side quest. Here its diffrent. I dont want to play main plot to extend the game as much as possible and get my witcher better weapons Because without it you also stand no chance with better creatures. All of the creatures are diffrent, wich makes to fight with each one of them other way and you have to use your special signs or alchemy to gain boost in your weapons. I would never believe a game would get me so much into it. The best opinion on it is that my fiancee who in her life played only candy crash on her iphone wants to play it too ar ot least watch main stories, thats how she is into it after watching just the beginning of the gameplay. 10/10 is not enough, this game is so big that if you play with side quests etc(wich yuo really want to do) i will take quite long time to finish. And then you will have also expansion packs wich doesnt cost a lot and adds as much into the game as other companies pull out a new game on market with 2.5x bigger price. CD Projekt is amazing company and i am sure they will bring much more also with Cyberpunk game in 2016. Honesty i can rate it way above GTA V or any other game in the history of gaming.… Expand

The fact the were able to create a very detailed day/night cycle, and dynamic weather is just a plus to the already great environments.

    The voice acting is superb, but be careful if you have children around because much of it relies on having a mature audience with a sense of humor. The amount of creatues in the game is astounding. Most RPGs you come across 10 or so different creatures, and that is it. Then you will repeat the cycle with the same creatues over and over. There are an enormous amount of different type of creatures in this game, or those close to the series, "monsters." The attention to detail is amazing. I came across a farmer in game that was shoveling in a field, and his shovel would enter the ground empty, and when it came back up, there was a shovel full of dirt. Once he tossed the shovel, you could actually see the dirt being tossed off. Another example was a kid playing in a stream, and you could actually see the water ripple as he moved his hands through it.

    I haev seen several reviews where people have given the game a low score based solely, and only, on the reasoning they can't create their own character. I find it utterly amusing someone would waste their time to write a negative review about this when they should have know well in advance that Geralt is the main character of the game and the book. What ever made them think they were going to be able to alter the story given in the books is beyond me. It is an adventure about Geralt of Rivia, not John Doe of Pocono.    … Expand

Honest it takes the best of some past top RPGS and puts it into one great package along with its only great work. You will surely not be wronged if you buy this game and will find plenty to like truly one of the top RPGS of this generation and will be a candidate for RPG of the year and Game of the Year for sure if not winner in one or both of the awards. If you like RPGS this is a must buy and has taken over my game time from playing other great RPGS like bloodborne, dark souls 2 SOTFS, and Dragon Age inquistion. The RPG genre truly has had some great titles as of late and hope to see that continue as I love the RPG genre and and all its newer subsets as of late xD.

    Quick advice for anyone having issues starting game, make sure before you start the game to let it fully update the game or you might have an issue starting the game as I found that if you let the game fully update you will not have this problem starting the game but if you try and start the game before or during the updating then game will get stuck at loading screen otherwise no issues to speak of on PS4 unlike issues I have had with getting Witcher 3 to finally run properly on my high end PC but that's whole other platform and not for you to worry about if your playing on console.    … Expand

From the main story quests, secondary quests, contracts and treasure hunt, the developers have crafted each quest to make you care, to make you eagerly complete the quest to see the exciting outcome. From hunting down monsters across the vast open world, to simply helping an old lady get her frying pan pack, you care. That for me is what makes this game a 10. The lore is so fascinating, the combat is exhilarating, leveling crafting and alchemy have so much depth, and I can't even begin to tell you how much time I have put into the (mini)game gwent; all of what I listed adds to experience, but again it is how the game makes you care and in turn makes you cautious with your decision making. Every choice has a consequence and a lot of choices come down to choosing the lesser of two evils, however it is this choice that makes the game feel so grounded in reality. Your actions have consequences, Every time you have a choice (at least for myself) you take time to consider what is the best options for Geralt and for the world he lives in. In conclusion, the game is just so good, and if any developer has ever earned your $60 dollars it's without a doubt CDPR.

In TW3 you know that without even looking to sky, just because of animals, the foliage, the wind... Gorgeous.

    RPG: This is an action rpg right? Yes, but its so rich, potions, alchemy, magic, swords, shields, bow, xbox, they're not simple weapons to use, they're something else, they defines you, you cant just simple use them, you need to master it, enjoy and understand each weapon. The level, the customization is everything in this game, you cant simply add ability points, you need to link that with your combat style, with your way to play, with your way of live in this world. Books, stories. Imagine a Skyrim with more dense and fluid combat system, add an alive world that changes all times by your actions and decisions, now, you're only 10% of what TW3 is capable.

    Quests: They dont exist only to you level up, gear up, or end the story... They exist to make this world alive, i hate sidequests, but here you cant ignore them, they're as rich as the main ones. This game defines next-gen RPG.

    Actors/NPC: Facial expressions, finest voice action, fluid smooth, you imagine the NPC is really there, is not just something to tell you the story, they're alive in this world.

    Mine final opinion: This a must for an action gamer, a must for an rpg gamer, a must for FPS gamer, a must for everyone. This game change it all, to me it enter the same revolution as: Chrono trigger, First Doom, Final Fantasy 7, Half-life... This is the new level of future rpg, cant imagine if is even possible to match with it. Giving this game 10/10 is unfair, you cant score this game, like you cant score the industrial revolution, the french revolution, WW's.    … Expand
