    One of the best Action-Adventure games out there. A deep world, great quests and stories. Iconic characters and superb production. Only the world is too big for me. Maybe I get through this beast sometimes...

    Экшн от третьего лица с элементами рпг... Ох уж этот рпг, если это не то чем я обычно в фарике сбиваю вертолеты, то никогда не понимал этого скучного трёпа, который по сути выбивает из колеи и значительно понижает уровень адреналина и интереса к происходящему. Так я думал вплоть до прохождения последней полнометражной части Ведьмака. Суть ведь в чем - в том самом исключительном случае,Экшн от третьего лица с элементами рпг... Ох уж этот рпг, если это не то чем я обычно в фарике сбиваю вертолеты, то никогда не понимал этого скучного трёпа, который по сути выбивает из колеи и значительно понижает уровень адреналина и интереса к происходящему. Так я думал вплоть до прохождения последней полнометражной части Ведьмака. Суть ведь в чем - в том самом исключительном случае, когда сюжет безумно увлекательный, персонажи яркие, харизматичные ну и просто как живые и им действительно сопереживаешь. При таких обстоятельствах система диалогов даёт возможность раскрыть более широко сюжетные хитросплетения и да направить их в то русло, которое ты посчитаешь необходимым, от некоторых принятых решений кардинально меняется история. Так, между прочим, в игре три разных концовки. В моей по хорошей традиции все умерли))) Русская ненормативно-интеллигентная озвучка игры просто блестящая! Тут можно нарыть просто огромную горку всевозможных запоминающихся диалогов и мемов, к примеру, наверняка вы нескоро забудете стишок про Ламберта или крепкие высказывания Золтана, да тут даже второстепенные npc способны ошарашить веселыми монологами. Действие игры происходит в средние века в вымышленном фэнтезийном мире, в котором всё же просматриваются культурное и историческое наследие Польши и Скандинавии. Игровой мир выполнен великолепно и в купе с погодой, которая частенько перерастает в бушующую стихию проникаешься этой мрачной глубокой атмосферой бесповоротно. А какой тут бестиарий!!! И ведь к каждой твари нужно иметь свой подход. Безумно было интересно со всем этим разбираться. Не знаю кому как, но сходу обилие всевозможного инвентаря и примочек Геральта несколько пугает. Конечно, разобравшись во всех этих тонкостях получаешь дополнительное удовольствие от происходящего, но всё же может стоило как-то постепенно вводить в курс дела. Для меня эта часть была первая и мне было не совсем просто, но недолго. Сражаемся в игре двумя мечами - один для людей, второй для магических существ, также в арсенале имеются неординарные ведьмачьи способности и арбалет, которым не особо часто пользовался, разве что для того чтобы сбивать надоедливых сирен и лупить под водой утопцев. Игра достаточно долгая, но в данном случае скорее даже хочется ещё. Это удивительное приключение Геральта из Ривии запомнится мне надолго и да мы точно ее с женой пройдём ещё не один раз. В следующих попытках попробуем затаскивать не всех подряд в постель))) Третий Ведьмак это несомненный шедевр на все времена, для меня лично не имеющий аналогов. Топ из топов!!! Безотлагательные рекомендации тем кто ещё не добрался до этой жемчужины игрового мира!!! Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The best Open World I have ever played.
    The Story is a masterpiece, it starts off great and no other story except the one RDR2 had, kept me hooked on it. I could not turn it off. Every Character you meet is well acted and is interesting.
    The World is absolutely amazing. Its a world that I simply did not want to fast travel, beautiful views, awesome towns and superior atmosphere.
    The Combat is excellent. They compared great combat with awesome magic and a legendary music.
    The strength of the open world often is not its main story, yet its side quests and other things to do. The side quests is absolutely awesome! Every side quest is interesting in its own way and intriguing. The romance is also on point, with Yennefer and Triss.
    In Overall this game is a perfect open world, excellent combat and excellent story. The best open world, shoulder to shoulder with the world of RDR2.
    A remarkable and essential experience which i recommend to everyone.

    Simply the best game I have ever played. Awesome role playing and progression. Incredible narrative (even the side quests), with really good characters that you care of.
    And Gwent... I love this game, very addictive card game. The graphics and controls are good, but not incredible.

Quests were interesting for the most part, played most of the side quests and some of the Witcher contracts, would certainly have played the rest if I enjoyed the combat more.

    The core combat is pretty fun and fair but certainly not amazing, it’s far better in this respect than games like Skyrim but worse than Dark Souls. Most of the bosses were decently made and unique from one another but I certainly got bored of some basic enemy types by the end e.g drowners and wild hunt hounds.

    Also many of the other gameplay mechanics weren’t that well done, for example, the crafting system in the game felt almost completely pointless, why would I go through the effort to find all the stuff necessary then go to a blacksmith and pay to get a sword when in a few hours time I’ll just find a higher level sword anyway. I rarely made use of other mechanics like the runestones or alchemy because they also felt pointless.

It's impressive everything you can do and the amount of monsters, witches, orcs, glyphs and other beings. A unique soundtrack and impressive Xbox One X graphics!

    CD Project Red created the most immersive world where you feel part of . I was catching myself at talking like geralt after long session with game. Fight system isn't very good so i avoid any fights with people but hunting on monsters is better and i quite like this.

I admit that was a little bit off putting at first, especially since they put you in a small area as sort of a tutorial in the beginning of the game that’s starts off a little slow. Once the game opened up after that I got hooked. It motivated me to watch the Netflix show, and I even went and read the 8 books. Some of the books were really good. That background definitely makes the game better, but isn’t necessary. This is one of those games with a huge scope. The main story is estimated to take you around 50 hours. In some ways it reminds me of my Skyrim play through where I ignored the main quest for a long time and just did my own thing and side content. If you do that there are well over 100 hours of stuff to do. The combat is pretty interesting, mixing sword play with a little magic. There are different ways to build your character to fit your fighting style. I am about to start the DLCs, which are part of the complete edition or can be bought stand alone. They are highly rated and one of them even increases your ability to make custom character builds for combat. This is a top notch role playing game in an authentic open world. If you’re on the fence, check out a video review or take the plunge like I did and pick it up on sale. A free update for next gen consoles has been promised. So toss a coin to your Witcher! Expand

    This game is amazing but has a pretty steep learning curve. While the narrative is fantastic, gameplay takes a while to get used to but is part of the joy. Yes combat can feel clunky and frustrating at some times but part of the joy of this game is not only learning the nuances of the combat but also how to defeat enemies in the most efficient way.

    Rather than just relying on a skill
    This game is amazing but has a pretty steep learning curve. While the narrative is fantastic, gameplay takes a while to get used to but is part of the joy. Yes combat can feel clunky and frustrating at some times but part of the joy of this game is not only learning the nuances of the combat but also how to defeat enemies in the most efficient way.

    Rather than just relying on a skill bar to determine how strong you are, this game encourages you to dive into the lore to conduct yourself in the best way possible. For gamers that can allow themselves to lean into this and accept the challenge of the learning curve are met with one of the most rewarding experiences in gaming.

    Aside from this learning curve this game offers intense immersion, great character development & story, great customization and level up system, and compelling lore. After playing the game throughout it is clear why many consider it "game of the decade."

    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.

    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]

    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.
