Good value for dedicated GWENT players
I am a veteran GWENT player with over 450h and I am playing since alpha. I loved the time limited special events and puzzles during beta and was looking forward to the release of Thronebreaker. I got it on release day and today I finally finished it... Yes, it took me over 5 months to play it through but not for the good reasons. Let me start with the positives first though, because objectively the game is loved by the press and the player base. The two main positives for me are: VALUE: the expansion is insane value for dedicated GWENT players, it gives you all new cards, exclusive premiums versions of them and tons of reward points you can spend in GWENT. These alone are worth the price tag. PRODUCTION: The game is polish(ed) to the last detail, every line is voice acted, the visuals and cut scenes are beautifully crafted. The game is stable and "just works" in contrast to some other products that claimed the same ;) Now to the aspects of the game that I personally didn't like: MEVE: Yes, I found Meve, our main character very bland and uninteresting. Her voice acting was cringy and annoying at best. I didn't care at all about her. I also can't say anything better about the rest of characters as well, except for maybe Barnabas, who was occasionally fun. STORY: The story was underwhelming and forgetable. No seriously, maybe I am too spoiled by the witcher storytelling, but to me Thronebreaker was a snoozefest compared to the worst side quest in the Witcher 3. GAMEPLAY: The game is liniar. Way too long. Way too easy. I got through all puzzles and combats with the same "starting" deck except for the final battle and Gernichora, where I had to make adjustments. Resource collection and building was a pure gimmick and nothing more, there was no ballance or real strategy to it. The "moral" choices didn't work for me as well, and most of them felt punishing no matter what you choose. Thronebreaker is objectively not a bad game, just not the game for me.
