    The inventory system text is so small it's barely legible on a 50" TV, and seems to have been designed for PC players with no consideration for console gaming.
    Add to this a story that is drab and uninteresting from the outset, especially when compared to Witcher 2, which was great right off the bat.
    This is NOT a massive open world game, either. It's a great big map where you go from point A to point B to point X and the challenge seems to be mastering your boredom.
    I was really looking forward to this game and to say that I'm gutted is an understatement.    … Expand

    Risen is one of the worst rpg games from last gen. This is risen for the next gen just labeled differently. Here is an honest review.

It is a segment map which means it is not open. You can zoom out on the entire map which    Risen is one of the worst rpg games from last gen. This is risen for the next gen just labeled differently. Here is an honest review.

    The world which you travel is open world, Beautiful and wait, wait a second. No. No it's not. The world is not open and if you think it is you are a darn right fool. It is a segment map which means it is not open. You can zoom out on the entire map which then shows areas you can go to. This does not make it open world. The fact I can't ride the worlds most retarded horse from the road that is shown on the map to the overall area to another is just horrible. It is not open world if you think so, you are clearly not the brightest cookie in the jar. They try to make it seem alive with the NPC's but has anyone even noticed they just do the same thing, the same kid is in the same puddle every day singing the same song. **** off with that.

    The graphics are standard nothing special. It only looks slightly better than a risen game. The world itself is boring and lack luster with stupid NPC's trying to make it feel alive. No once did I look at this game in awe with the sun shining down across these really boring places that all look the same, nothing sticks out. The world is dead with no real atmosphere. It just feels like a game.

    The movements. Ahh this is where the game truly falls apart. Playing a GAME you'd think the most important aspect really would be this... GAMEPLAY. Clearly not for CDPR. It is clunky, every swing of the sword is weightless, I might as well be holding a feather duster. The combat tries to copy Dark souls with it's timing and what not but fails, there is no weight, it is boring and the camera angles do not help, especially when you have multiple enemies on you, even three!! It becomes a chore, panning the camera yourself only to be smacked but a **** then as you stagger the rest come and gangbang you and opps its game over, hit load last save and go make yourself a cuppa cause that ****ing loading screen.

    Walking in this game is a hard task as is horse riding with retarded roach. "Look a small rock I must halt master, I am no match for tiny rock" says retarded roach. This is a next gen game in 2015. Games before this such as red dead had better horse handling, The best horse handling I've ever played has come from MGSV. There is no excuse to get this wrong when games from the past and present can do it better than you have done.

    The inventory. Holy **** balls. Try to go through it and it is just killing your brain cells one by one. It is so messy it's like someone couldn't get to the toilet, shat all over the floor and said hey, inventory system.

    Alchemy. It sucks plain and simple, Idk where to get these flowers or items really it does not give you any hint at all, which can be okay, hand holding in a game is kinda annoying, but when half the ****ing flowers look the ****ing same I just think how the **** and I meant to know what I'm doing. What the hell does this item even do, well you will probably never know, as the game doesn't really tell you.

    One thing that really pissed me off is the fact in game some one said I'm centuries old. So I'm a master witcher, wise and knowledgeable. So I do a quest, where I'm to fight a werewolf, He even said in his grumbling voice I'm looking for a werewolf, yet there is **** all in bestiary so idk what other things it hates apart from my silver sword and fire cause not many things with fur like fire. So I think to hell with this google will answer me. I google it, there are other things to use only problem is HOW THE HELL DO YOU GET IT!!!???!!! A bomb that is not in my crafting inventory, idk where to get it there is not indication. I will never find it I give up.

    I was playing it with a mate and I look at my level okay, I've got 725 exp, I go off and fight a **** ton of things, wolves, drowners, bears. Look at my exp 745. Are you actually kidding me, I start yelling and laughing because the fact you can't level up from fighting things in the "Open World" means there is no point what so ever to getting of retarded roach and fighting. Anything apart from the quests are there for meaningless. Though I also did a quest and revived 25 exp... Yeah it helped so much and did not waste my time having to listen to a boring cut scene with some **** spouting nonsense.

    In short.

    The world is dead and baron.
    The combat is ****ty and broken.
    The controls are piss poor.
    The graphics are nothing special.
    The horse should just go away I can run and jump and get to where I want faster with less difficult navigation.
    The inventory system is an abomination.
    Camera angles are just a no no especially in witcher sense mode.

    This game is over hyped and over rated. It's nothing special.

Combat movement is dismal and unresponsive resulting in constant failures to block, dodge, and strike on a regular basis. Inventory management system is THE WORST I've seen in decades. Leveling is slow and level ups inconsequential. Opponent level matching is out of whack and this combined with the horrible combat mechanics results in frequent untimely deaths even in early encounters. Quests are nearly all simple and brainless "go fetch" or "get through dialogue" affairs with most being impossible to complete in the early game due to their required level and the combat and encounter level issues noted earlier.

For an action game, the controls are sometimes surprisingly unresponsive. Quest-scaling is all over the place. Loot scaling system is designed to almost consistently reward the player with garbage. The experience is also marred by the game being built around two contradictory design philosophies:
    1) Geralt should be poor
    2) Geralt has to constantly upgrade his equipment - which a poor Geralt should not be able to do.
    This built-in contradiction in design forces the player to focus too much time on scouring the gameworld for the means to upgrade, which can become quite tedious.

    That being said, with the way CDPR has been patching for XBox One, I cannot in good conscience recommend this game. Every patch has introduced problems, but the latest one really takes the cake:
    -all DLC's broken
    -reduced functionality
    -new graphics issues, some of which are migraine-inducing
    -new AI bugs
    -downgraded performance (again)

    Now onto the bad...

    The voice acting was AWFUL and it complete ruins any immersion despite how hard you try to like it (and believe me I tried very hard to like this game). 0/10

    The graphics aren't as advertised and are not what you'd expect from a game at this point in the next gen console's life. AC Unity has far better graphics despite being nearly a year old. 5.5/10

    Music is okay, but not nearly as good as Skyrim's. I still give it a 7/10 since they didn't cut corners here.

    Combat is horrible and needlessly over complicated, considering you only have like two-three weapons and 5 spells. Even on the easy modes you die too quickly. The blocking mechanic is choppy and useless if you're against a group of enemies. The dodge/roll button does nothing since most enemies can attack you while you're rolling. 0/10

    The crafting/alchemy thing is awful too. Remember how Far Cry 4 had an annoying number of plants for making potions? Well this game is even worse for that. It's not like you can forego this though, as you need potions/oils to fight certain enemies. 0/10

    The gameplay and controls are awful. It is such a pain to try and use a ladder, mount your horse, swim, etc... GTA has generally bad swimming mechanics, but they seem godly compared to this game's swimming mechanics. I literally will do 4 underwater backflips and drown before I resurface. -5/10

    Levelling is incredibly slow and if you make a wrong choice on which skill you upgrade good luck to you, it took me countless times to get through the caves when I followed the wild hunt because I didn't know I needed certain things like upgrading a specific magic skill and having bombs but could I go back and do these things? No. The inventory system is a mess, quests are run of the mill fetch and kill, Geralt sounds like a depressed clint eastwood character, difficulty levels on quests are random so one side quest could be easy and the one next door next to impossible. Just lazy design work hidden behind the justification of explore and come back idealogy.
    Games like Baldurs Gate did this type of thing so much better back in the day and this is really just a FP version of those games not done as well.
    Graphics are nice and some of the story beats are good but they are hiding a sub par game. Unfortunately everyone seems to be going gah gah for this game and it will probably get game of the year looking at the reviews but buyer beware you have to ignore a lot of shortcomings and be prepared to put up with a lot of lazy design here.    … Expand

I really dislike the music and there is very little mood or atmosphere created by it. I honestly don't feel invested in any way and this makes me very sad. The avalanche of 10s this game is getting is a mystery to me. I still don't know if I can finish this game because I am not getting any reward for my efforts, it all seems so meaningless.

    This game does not deserve a 9+. The game seems to have a lot of things to do, but when you take a step back the game is about rather than quality.

    - Quests are terrible. I wish they had been more creative.
    - Story is lacking. Feels very diluted and stretched thin.
    - Characters are not very likable.
    - Combat is clunky
    - Game is buggy, as expected of Bethesda..

    Despite its vast scope, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt tells a personal, intimate and touching story, filled with characters you’ll love and hate, and stuffed with monsters to slay. I completed the main storyline in around 50 hours and - yes I know this is a cliche - I’ve barely scratched the surface. The Witcher 3 is an astounding achievement.
