As secundárias são tão incríveis que dá vontade só de ficar fazendo as missões secundárias e upando de level antes de ir fazer uma missão principal. Simplismente incrível.

    The witcher 3 is one of the biggest, if not the best game in history. The beginning of the game is very slow, but after about 1 hour, 2 hours of game you feel totally inserted in that story. The game is engaging, you care about the main characters and even the secondary ones. The missions are extremely deep, even the secondary ones. The side ones are so incredible that you just want to do side missions and level up before going on a main mission. Simply amazing.

    Simplesmente um dos melhores jogos da geração, o mundo aberto é impressionante pois é muito rico e vivo, a história do jogo é muito bem contada e recheada de personagens marcantes, as side quests são muito bem trabalhadas e até parecem missões principais, os detalhes também são muito impressionantes as texturas são incriveis, por fim esse jogo é um MASTERPIECE

    Отличный сюжет, великолепная атмосфера и сам Геральт. Ставлю 9 дрынов из 10 из-за топорной боевки, но это нивелируется всеми полюсами игры (коих очень много). В общем игра шикарная, берите смело.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm a die-hard Skyrim/Elder Scrolls Fan and I thought nothing could beat it, but the writing on Witcher 3 is way beyond it. It's way beyond Fallout (all of them). I especially like the fact that there are choices you need to make where both of them have bad outcomes, it's not the typical "this is good" "this is bad".

    Not just that, but the animation at times is beautiful and moving. I won't spoil it, but for those of us who've played it and have played the Bloody Baron sequences, the one featuring "The Botchling" is absolutely tear-jerking! The characters are well-acted and realistic, I mean there are characters you want to just outright maul (a father leaving his son to follow the "candy trail" to what should be an unfortunate end, the king who wants his daughter back and doesn't care what she wants, The Bloody Baron himself, and halfway through (the Botchling ) his wife for willingly creating the botching). It's just an awesome game!

    This is an exceptionally huge game. Near complete lore. Long main story. Expansive map. Countless items for crafting etc. Loads of side quests. But the positive aspects of this game pretty much end here. Every other aspect has either at best being implemented much better in some game, or at worst being almost broken.

    This is an exceptionally huge game. Near complete lore. Long main story. Expansive map. Countless items for crafting etc. Loads of side quests. But the positive aspects of this game pretty much end here. Every other aspect has either at best being implemented much better in some game, or at worst being almost broken.

    Generally, the world feels too compressed, not just content-wise but also aesthetically, in a sense that the rations feel somewhat wrong (trees and houses only being slightly taller than the main character, for example).

    I also failed to see why the graphics got so much praised, as the reminded mostly of graphics of consoles of previous generations.

    Gameplay feels clunky and sloppy lacking fluidity. Meelee combat is limited to a couple of moves with lengthy animations. Spells are inconvenient to cast since it is needed to access a menu mid-combat to change the single active spell available. Menu navigation also feels too primitive and simplistic and ends up being annoying especially if taken into account the vast number of options in a single menu.

    The main plot is basically "find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find this person, to help you find your daughter". Details of the story are not as bad as it sounds but the way it is delivered is anything but immersive. Characters are variable but some of them not deep enough, and could use a bit better voice acting.

    What really makes this game not fun to play though is its lack of polish and the too important bug that make The Witcher 3 feel more like an awesome alpha version of the game, or a descent beta version of the game. The auto generated path to objective will often be wrong. While riding the worse, it possible for the horse to stop moving instantly because it encountered a non-existent obstacle. Horse also auto steers when on roads which make it extremely annoying as it conflicts with the commands given by the player. By the far the worst thing I encountered is that some sound tracks will be missing during the majority of the game. This usually are combat or spellcasting sound effects, or worse plot important sound effects during a cutscene. Around 1/3 of game voice tracks of the character were completely absent which forced me follow dialogue solely through subtitles.

    In short, this is a huge game with huge potential, though execution was extremely poor. I would have preferred if this game was half the size but so big issues which are so evident even after a few hours of gameplay were resolved.

    Excellent game, good graphics and a huge living world; the soundtrack is excellent although it can sometimes be repetitive. I don't find the secondary missions boring, some even more fun than the main ones. However it has excessive bugs (even in its GOTY version) and the control is rough many times. Still, I find the whole experience very satisfying and despite the bad things.

    It took me about 5 years to finally find the time for this masterpiece of a game. I actually felt empty after my 120 hour journey came to an end. I would say this game is for people who like advanced RPGs and especially crafting menus.

    The universe and the story are amazing, you can play this game for about 100 hours and you wont get bored. Also the game is beautiful. The errors of this game are despicable. The Witcher 3 is an example for every RPG

    The best game I've ever played. And I played a lot of them. What makes this game exceptional are the quests and stories, which lie behind them. Every basic task turns out to be a deep and touchy story. Trust me, you won't regret supporting developers that create such masterpieces.

    overrated at best?
    playing this in 2020. it doesn't aged well. graphic performance (even ps4 pro on OLED HDR TV) is subpar. gameplay felt clunky. (takes seconds to load item on screen? really?)
    what about the story? if you haven't played the previous installment. can you totally immersed and invested in the character? just put in couple of hours to be fair. really struggle to keep

    Beautiful game. I’ve played this game at least 3 times. It’s just astonishing. The decision making , the lore, the story, everything. I got the BaW and HoS DLCs a few months ago and I just couldn’t believe how captivating they were. Blood and Wine is a full fledged game on its own. The Witcher 3 is the first Witcher game I’ve played but shan’t be the last to say the least!

    Sinceramente me lo he pasado 2-3 veces en la toma dificultad, y en la versión de PS4 solo le puedo poner una pega, y es las caídas de frames que tiene, pero creo que es más problema de la PS4 dar. Pero el juego es sublime tanto en banda sonora, gráficos, físicas, y narrativa. El mejor juego de la generación sin dudarlo,

    The Wild Hunt story is finishing off the trilogy of the Witcher series in a very interesting way. Unlike most third entries you are not required to have had played the first two to understand what is going on. Much like in the books containing Geralt; this game is a continuation and a self contained story all in one. So for those of you that missed The Witcher 1, and 2 fear not this gameThe Wild Hunt story is finishing off the trilogy of the Witcher series in a very interesting way. Unlike most third entries you are not required to have had played the first two to understand what is going on. Much like in the books containing Geralt; this game is a continuation and a self contained story all in one. So for those of you that missed The Witcher 1, and 2 fear not this game will be just as enjoyable. The story is about Geralt (who is a monster hunter) tracking down his surrogate daughter Ciri to save her from The Wild Hunt. That is the base premise believe me there is so much that I won't mention to keep those who haven't gotten it to have a fresh untainted experience. This game actually made me not only care about the characters but feel an array of emotions. I felt anger with the antagonist, laughter, bloodlust, and hell I even got teary eyed in a couple of scenes. This game has such great writing and storytelling. The game has multiple ending based off decisions you make throughout the game. My friend and I were playing the game to see who'd finish first and we'd discuss what'd happen in our stories. He had killed people I didn't, and I had done certain missions complete opposite than what he had done. This is grade A storytelling and it makes me wish that most third entries in games could have this kind of finish.

    The game is the best looking game out on the new generation of consoles. This world looks alive and feels alive. It will actually change over time due to the choices you make. The game is a work of art come to life. For those of you that have some blood lust; The Witcher 3 has you covered. Chopping off heads, and cleaving bodies in two has never been a beautiful as it is now. The game sound is fantastic. The game is all fully voice acted with each actor sounding like a professional. While Geralt character has a monotone (his character isn't supposed to have emotions) the voice actor still some how manages to convey emotions, and tones while still keeping this gravelly monotone voice.

    The gameplay is what I've been looking for in a fantasy game. When you are fighting with a sword it seems very realistic. While you the player may be jamming on the square button, Geralt is doing the art of water dancing. He is doing these low cuts, high cuts spin moves, it is truly something just to watch him fight. On normal the game is the exact amount of challenge I love in games. It keeps you on your toes, while not being stupid hard. The fact not every enemy can be beaten by your sword alone. Each enemy has a certain weakness to blade oils, magic signs or perhaps just a good ole fashion bombs. In doing that the game never feels repetitive in the slightest. The game has a open world like Skyrim, but with it constantly changing and new mission that are all unique in every way you will have over 100 hours of top notch gameplay here.

    Overall the game is perfect. I really have no issues with this game at all. It would melt away hours for me and when I wasn't playing it I would think about the game. CD Projekt Red is my favorite developer for creating such an experience with this series. If you were on the fence about this game I urge you to find any way to play it; whether it be beg borrow or steal just get your hands on this. I give this a 5/5. I'm a bit sad I now must move on from this game. I of course leave with a question. What are your favorite games of all time?

    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.
