    The CD Projekt Red surpassed all expectations and they really managed to combine a megalomaniac open world with a strong story. Witcher 3 is a masterpiece, which you will talk to your grandchildren about.

    This is easily one of the best games of 2015, but beyond that it is the best fantasy RPG I have played to date, alongside being the best open-world game since Rockstar’s phenomenal Red Dead Redemption.

    Xbox One owners should have no reason to bemoan the way the game looks: it’s beautiful on all of its platforms.

    Featuring some of the best story telling we have seen so far this year and an unforgettable, dynamic and vast open world, Witcher 3 stands as a must own for not only fans of the franchise but those looking for rich experience they can soak 100+ hours into. Some of the glitches, bugs and other small annoyances hamper the experience but the pros outweigh the cons as the Witcher 3 is a journey worth taking.

    Not quite the technical masterpiece we hoped for, but the mild disappointment soon melts away. The Witcher 3 is a huge, engrossing time-sink of a game that you'll happily spend dozens of hours on. [Issue#125, p.74]

    If you stick with it until the end, you'll be blown away by its engrossing world, riveting characters, and deep combat system. It's a crowning achievement from the developers, and it's a definite contender for game of the year.

    The end result is a terrific role-playing game that any fan of Elder Scrolls: Skyrim will love. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt falls just short of perfection because of those nagging little issues.

    Since the last Elder Scrolls games, I would've never expected anyone would've been able to give us an open world RPG to surpass those giants.Since the last Elder Scrolls games, I would've never expected anyone would've been able to give us an open world RPG to surpass those giants. But now you have The Witcher 3 one of if not the best RPG of all time (definitely the best of this decade). With a fascinating story and fully fleshed out characters, CDPR have put all of the modern gaming industry to shame (except for a few such as Naughty Dog, Rockstar etc.). One of my favourite games of all time and the first to recommend for a Mature Open World Role Playing Game with near-perfect dialogue to keep anyone entertained for dozens of hours!… Expand

    It's just a great game overall. If you like medieval RPG's I guarantee you'll like The Witcher 3. I only wish it had first-person.

    O pior jogo da minha vida. História muito cansativa, demora muito pra coisa andar, você fica andando no mapa fazendo atividade nova. Detestei.
