The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

I've been impressed with CD PROJECKT RED after Witcher and Witcher iI, but had quite a few complaints about both games, particularly the strange approach to combat controls. After more than 20 hours of game play in Witcher 3, there are more side quests in my queue than have been completed. Every single side quest still has kept my full attention. Most importantly, Witcher 3 is amazingly polished. The world is much much bigger, and unfathomably more immersive, than the previous titles combined. Bread-crumbing would be the only complaint I could makeI was honestly worried that being told where to go would detract from the fun, but it actually helps maintain the pace of the storytelling.

The best studio, the best games. I <3 CDPR!

There was a lot of hype about the type of game that CD project Red was aiming to create for the third instalment. Contrary to the previous games, The Witcher 3 has a massive open world to explore which is a sharp departure from the seconds hub based level design. In fact the world is 35 times larger than that of the second instalment, which is all well and good but we've all played plenty of games with open worlds that have a lot of space but not much to do in it. Thankfully however the world is brimming full with locations and places to explore which in itself is frequently rewarded, something which many open world games fail to do. In my opinion CD Projekt RED have crafted one of the best role playing games ever made. Like any other it has it's flaws but its quality is ultimately undeniable. It's engaging story mixed with its immersive world and challenging combat makes for an incredible experience. It is one of those games that even at thirty hours in, you fell like its just starting to open up. Its has hours and hours worth of content and the choices in the game make for some interesting playability. The game is a true work of art and I cannot recommend it enough. With 16 free dlc's on the way and two expansions adding almost 50 hours between them, there's plenty on the horizon for the Witcher 3 and I just hope this will not be the final instalment for the franchise.

After my last game purchase (MKX) I was left with a very sour taste in my mouth, and let me tell you this game is a breath of fresh air. Best RPG I've ever played. I've always loved MMOs and never thought a single player could offer the same feeling of near endless shit to do, but this game hits the nail on the head. Side quests are actually fun and have lots of variety so you never feel like you're grinding. Theres always cool story lines to go down and often times you find awesome rewarding stuff on the adventures. I found myself stealing from all the houses of every village I came across and playing gwent with every elligible character I could find for the first 30 hours and said to myself "Holy fuck 30 hours and I'm only level 5". Buy this game it runs smoooooooth on day one and it is apparrent how much love the developers poured outta their hearts into this title.

Title says it all, there is nothing about this game that falls short. This is a game that will please everyone from a casual RPG player to a hardcore Witcher fan. As with the witcher series I feel that they have constantly been improving on the predecessor and this is definitely the case here. CD Projekt Red have managed to make this game beautiful on any system, I've been running the game at Medium/High and the quality is what other games would call ultra and it looks immense. The world is vast with lots to explore and monsters to hunt. Please, do yourself a favour and buy this game.
