    They ruined a great game with the Next Gen update. If you're going to play it, you should definitely stay away from this version because the optimization is no more.

    While I loved this game I do think that similar to the horizon games if you don’t click with the protagonist you’re not going to enjoy it. For those who did click with Geralt and the world it’s a once in a generation experience with surprises everywhere making side quests and exploring interesting, fun combat, and a great story.

    Such a blast. Combat actually gives you a choice of how to play and not simply the "illusion" of a choice like so many other games. Story is great (if you appreciate it) and there is just so much to do! Dualsense implementation is a nice small addition too.

    The Blood and Wine DLC is also super strong written with very good and remarkable charackters.

    - Best story of the open world game genre. After seven years this game is still leaps and bounds ahead of most of the competition. And the games that can compete with Witcher 3 in terms of story lack the great presentation (Fallout New Vegas for example).

    - Interesting multi- faceted characters with way more depth than in most other games. They make big budged productions with Hollywood actors look bad in comparison. Even random npcs are far more convincing than main characters of aaa games released this year. Witcher 3 is being carried by actors and animators and they did a fantastic job.

    - Great quests with branching paths that challenge your morality. And its not always grey, sometimes you can decide wrong, sometimes there are multiple paths to a good ending, and sometimes all you can do is pick one bad thing or another. The writing is always great. Questing in this game is so much fun because you never know whats going to happen.

    - The world and its lore is based on Middle European fantasy instead of British fantasy like most fantasy games. Grimms fairy tales instead of Tolkien. Its way more sinister, terrifying, weird and ugly and thats great.

    - Great music. It really ads to the atmosphere which is often creepy and bloody. Also its not some generic “cinematic“ orchestral score. This music will stay in your head forever and never leave.

    - Gwent is the best and most complex mini game I have ever seen. Its really fun hunting for cards to become a master duelist.

    Cons:

    - Crashes, bugged quests, bugged npcs, bugged music, this game sadly has a lot of immersion ruining errors. The developers could have fixed this a long time ago but they didnt.

    - The rpg customization sucks. Loot scaling is poorly done, you are often swapping gear and nothing really sticks. Crafting is useless, and even unique quest rewards are throwaway stuff. Which is sad considering there are many different and unique swords and armor sets…. or not, because every sword has the exact same move set.

    - Abilities are generic and none of them has any impact on quests, except the upgrade for the Axii sign which you can get right in the first story chapter. This game has hundreds of different weapons, armor, materials, upgrades, but all of it just makes the game worse and more complicated. They should have went with a much, much simpler system.

    - Combat sucks as well, its not challenging even on highest difficulty and in most fights they just throw multiple mobs at once at you and you have to crowd control them. Not fun and the bad scaling is causing some unfair fights in the early game. But the worst enemy in the game is the horrendous lock on system.

    - The open world lacks diversity. All areas are a green land with lots of trees and very little variation besides that.

    Conclusion:

    This game is great but sometimes less is more. Cdpr should have focused even harder on what makes it worth playing, eg the story and characters, and cut down the cluttered rest of the game. Witcher 3 is one of the best story games of all time combined with an open world game thats more average than good. 8/10    … Expand

    Top 5 games of all time, thank you for my friend Aaron for recommending me this masterpiece of a game. I first played it on PS4 all those years ago and fell in love with this game. Then I switched to PC to experience it again with better graphics and now finally it has come to the PS5 and it's better than ever.

Poi sono usciti negli anni diversi giochi con lo stile di The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt. È la base per gli open world di ruolo. Parecchi prodotti negli anni sono alla The Witcher 3. Ma tendono ad essere più derivativi. Horizon Forbidden West è superiore a The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt. Per me il miglior open world fino ad oggi è Sonic Frontiers troppo sottovalutato.

I wasn't interested in this game at first, until my friends kept telling me it was one of the best games ever made with top notch quality by generous developers. I even had a co-worker claim that this game's open world had more depth and content than GTA 5. I was like "Whoa what, well then I have to get it" only to be outraged that this game was the complete opposite of what I was told. Forget GTA 5, this game barely has the quality of the average Ubisoft game. This game was full of bugs, glitches, crashes, bad performance, terrible animations, clipping issues, PS2 quality controls, outdated combat system, and awful physics akin to mobile games. Many of these issues are still here. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I can respect that if they're honest. What I won't respect is double standards. If this game had the Ubisoft logo on the bottom of the box art, the narrative would've been so different. There would be a bazillion of compilation videos on the bugs, braindead AI, and awful physics. Never will I trust the "muh dark and gritty mature 10/10 GOTY stories" gamers ever again, because they are never consistent. All they do is parrot journalists and youtubers, or depending what their favorite game studios do, these gamers will change their standards accordingly.

    When I first unboxed the game on PS4, there was a red piece of paper where the developers were basically bragging about how generous they were. That's pathetic. I immediately ripped the paper into pieces. Calling yourself nice is narcissism, that is up for others to decide. My friends and co-workers thought I was crazy and absurd for calling the "good guys" CDPR greedy and lazy back in 2015. Funny how they agreed with me when Cyberpunk 2077 came out. It just goes to show how influential marketing and critics can be. It's no wonder why 18-49 is currently the key demo for advertisers. Let me tell you young folks how a business works. Money comes first, and a company will do anything they can to maximize revenue unless they decide to prioritize their left-wing liberal SJW woke agenda garbage. Not a hard concept to grasp. I knew this since I was like in the 2nd grade for goodness sake. What is wrong with you Millennial gamers? They're no different than EA. Only difference is these developers pretend to be the good guys. The fact that anyone thought CDPR actually cared about their consumers is comedy gold. I don't care if a company is "consumer friendly" I just want my money's worth.

    You can now pet your horse. Big deal, how about improving the trash gameplay, instead of coming up with gimmicks. Contrary to popular belief, there is nothing to do in the open world. I can't hijack horses from other people, I can't beat up the NPCs of my choice, I can't do anything. You can't even travel the entire open world in real-time. Ubisoft's open world games have more to do than this boring garbage. When it comes to physics, CDPR are the absolute worst in AAA games. I played shovelware with better physics than this garbage. That's embarrassing. The side quests aren't as great as people made it out to be. It's just dialogue and using the Witcher senses. The main story is dialogue after dialogue too with boring levels. I finally played the DLCs, and this "it's like a new game" statement is a fanboy lie. It's literally just DLC that should've been in the game in the beginning.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the story, there is literally not a reason to play this game again. Charging $60 for a game with no replay value is a cash grab. It's ironic that I can't play with friends in this so-called "consumer friendly" game. And the greedy developers had the audacity to brag about no microtransactions, when these lazy developers gave us half the game for $60. Last time that I checked, Rockstar and about all EA games have no microtransactions in the singleplayer portion of their games, yet gamers constantly call them out for their greed. It's easy to brag about no MTX when there are no servers to maintain. Why don't they make a singleplayer game with online multiplayer and no microtransactions? Oh that's right, because they are too greedy for that. CDPR are so cheap and lazy, they canceled Cyberpunk online. Lazy cheapskates didn't even bother to improve their engine, so they abandoned it and went crying to Epic Games for help. Seeing this new partnership, I will be going into Witcher 4 with high expectations. You better not disappoint me CDPR. Free upgrade, but what good is any of that when I paid $60 for this off-brand Ubisoft game? Currently $20-30, but I don't recommend this game at all.    … Expand

I think the game's difficulty really comes from the confusing amount of information it throws at you regarding enemies and the world as well as the janky character movement.

    An amazing journey of a monster hunter in every way possible.
    The main story is very well made with a great cast of characters, and the writing is fantastic, everything in the game has depth to it.

    The amount of content is absolutely ridiculous, at first you might get overwhelmed by all the activities the game throws at you, but exploring the map and doing side quests is definitely worth it, this game has perhaps the best side quests I've ever experienced, and the quest design is phenomenal.

    The dialogue options are groundbreaking, almost every quest has different outcomes and interactions, it's insane. Your actions have consequences and if you're not careful, you can miss entire questlines that can alter your experience.

    It's an all-around solid game, it does almost everything very well, except from the gameplay which is a little bit clunky so you'll have to get used to it, and some animations look weird.
    The biggest problem I have with the game personally is the amount of filler and padding in the first half of the story, it takes way too long for it to pick up, but the last few hours are just incredible.
    Also the boss fights are disappointingly simple and easy, no challenge whatsoever.

    Top Tier Open World in my opinion, it's very enjoyable from start to finish, there are so many things to do in this game.
