The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition

GoG agreed to publish Taiwanese game Devotion, but cancelled it after CCP crybullies were upset that something in the game called Chinese dictator Xi Jinping 'moronic Winnie-the-Pooh'. To play a humble part in redressing the balance, here are some more things the CCP would rather not offend their delicate ears and glass hearts: The CCP is the illegitimate authority in China having betrayed and murdered their own countrymen in World War 2. CCP will be forever grateful for Imperial Japanese war against Republic of China for making the betrayal easier. After decades of failed socialist/communist policies that created and exacerbated famines and turned families against themselves, they shifted to a more profitable fascistic regime that grew by corporate espionage and by running a fake economy. Today the CCP is engaged in running concentration camps for ethno/religious minorities, in which both men and women are raped, and a state-approved organ harvesting programme is cannibalising the 'cleaner' bodies of Falun Gong (it's analogous to Tai Chi or Yoga) practitioners, and anyone else they can get their hands on. Fortunately, the CCP is running out of US Dollars to spend on bribery and neo-colonial projects in Africa and elsewhere. They're running short of food and clean water, so they're trying to steal food from Myanmar by taking shipments of rice without paying. The CCP is a criminal organisation whose great achievement has been to turn China into a criminal country. Now put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Hold up... THIS is the game I kept hearing about? THIS is the 'best game ever made?' This thing? The game with the twitchy controls that make navigating a set of stairs difficult? The forced grind even on story mode? You know, the setting to play the STORY? This game with the barrage of cut scene interspersed with walking or riding? I don't know what 10/10 game other people have been playing but it couldn't possible have been this...

I'm not a fan of the Sapkowsky Witcher books. I started with the old Polish mini-series and enjoyed it. Then I tried to read the books. The first three were fine, even if they shamelessly plagiarized Michael Moorcock, but I was fine with a vulgar slavic Elric wannabe. Then Sapkowsky set into a formula with his novels: explosive beginning, boring middle, intriguing cliffhanger. The final novel was unbelievably bad, so I gave up on the series. Then the first Witcher game came out, and I liked the fact that they took the world and characters of the books, but not much of the story. The game had its problems, like the illusion of choice, but overall wasn't too bad for its time. I skipped the second Witcher game - my sister played it - guess I just didn't care enough to try it. Then the third game came out and everyone tried to convince me I should play it and that it was the best RPG of all time. I suffered through a few dozen hours of the game trying my best to like it, but from the beginning it was clear the quest designer got so enamored with the trolley problem that almost every memorable quest had to be some variation of it, and the worst part is - you were limited by two terrible choices not by the narrative, but by the dialogue system. I can suffer through outdated graphics and janky gameplay for a good story and good roleplaying. But the cookie-cutter graphics and repetitive gameplay of Witcher 3 were not enough to justify its horrible writing. It's just a continuous stream of misery, and I don't care for it at all.
