The Game, the DLC, and the other game!

I've had Witcher 3 since release, sadly I kept putting off playing it, I had played it a little, liked what I had seen, but then a reinstall would happen, or another game was released that demanded my attention, I remember in my first attempt at the game I was stuck at Novigrad on a mission that didn't seem to lead anywhere, so the fact that I lost that save was probably a good thing, as this time, I started it and I didn't stop, I got good at battling in the game, and got a good feel how to use it's other mechanics, I recently completed the main quest, a really good main quest I should add, despite it's length nothing ever feels rushed, I then went on to Hearts and Stone, it's a nice story, Gaunter O'Dimm is a really interesting character, so with virtually all quests completed, you can go on Witcher contracts, the first time I saw a leshen I was so hyped, it's an awesome creature, but it doesn't take long before you're twiddling your thumbs, waiting for the next big DLC, then I discovered, Gwent, now the game suggests you try Gwent early on, I avoided it because usually I'm not a big fan of card games, I've tried Hearthstone but it just never gets me excited, I tried a few matches in the beginning, and like a fool I skipped over the tutorial so I spent all my cards on the first round thought, how am I supposed to get through 3 rounds of this? Thanks to me not finding anything else to do, I decided to do what I should have done and research how the game worked, and it's weird to describe, but it's only once I started playing the game with my newfound knowledge I found out how amazing the game was, the psyching, bluff, and planning you can do made it so amazing to play, I can't describe how sad I was finding out that there is no stand alone Gwent game you can play against others this is so needed! Anyway tl:dr Witcher 3 is amazing, fun to play, great story telling, the DLC is quite good, and Gwent is the best!

One Last Adventure...

Full Disclosure...I LOVE THIS GAME!!!. I found myself frequently comparing this game to Skyrim and, to be fair, that's not a fair comparison at all. Skyrim is more of a role playing game, Witcher has a pre-defined hero and somewhat more limited decisions that affect who he becomes. But lets not get into that. I'll start with the open world It's EPIC! With the addition of Blood and Wine we know have 3 massive open worlds to discover, as well as two smaller sandbox locations. Skellige has the cold and mountainous feel of Skyrim, Toussant has the colorful feel of Mania from Elder Scrolls IV's dlc, and Velen/Novigrad have the feel of Oblivion's Cyrodiil. The Story If you haven't played or read up on previous installments on wikipedia, I recommend you take the short version and read up on the previous games (or just play the first two games and import your saves you Witcher fan, you). It will help with understanding the lore as well as where Geralt is coming from. There are a LOT of references made to events from prior games (and the DLCs introduce characters from prior games) so it helps to understand who everyone is and what's going on in the world. The story itself, for those unaquainted with the prior installments, is not hard to follow. You're a professional monster slayer trying to rescue a surrogate daughter from a mystical threat known as "The Wild Hunt." You'll have adventures across two continents and through dozens of quests and many more side quests and monster hunter contracts. You'll get to shape the world around you and learn more about the lives of villagers and even help them out on random occasion....back to the main story. It definitely had its moments, and even made me tear up towards the end, and I can truly say its a well-written tale of love, revenge, honor, hope, and more. It's not a pure fantasy tale like Skyrim but a more down-to-earth type tale. You'll hear cavalier talk of rape, and a general downtrodden air about the world Gameplay It's inspired by Batman Arkham Knight although not with all the finesse. Not a problem, the combat manages just fine and the control scheme is easy to learn and master. Walking around as Geralt and Roach is cumbersome but with the advent of an update that adds an "alternative" control mode to both this was made much more fluid. Geralt still suffers from poor fall distance damage but the developers added a "roll" button to remedy that. You can always mod it out on your own. Speaking of mods: MOD SUPPORT!!! It's probably not going to reach Skyrim levels due to the limited modding tools but what is out there is certainly promising. There are mods that improve the lighting, draw distance, graphics, HUD and immersion, as well as custom camera controls, skins, etc. (you know the deal). They're easy to use with Nexus Mods and I highly recommend immersive Cam and friendly hud (just to name a few) as they add a whole new level of immersion to the game.

Morrowind Dethroned (Spoiler Free)

Possibly the best RPG I've ever played. Not to say I hunt them all down, but to take the crown from Morrowind is no small feat. An excellent story on its own but gains even more depth if you've read the books by Andrzej Sapkowski, also well worth your time. It doesn't have the instantly gripping, fast-paced start of the second game, but it builds in a way that is ultimately more satisfying. Saying too much would risk ruining a few moments so you'll have to take my word, and everyone else's, on that. Gameplay is nicely rewarding and the challenges are effected by more than the difficulty. A powerful shield is almost like cheat mode and a few fights would have been incredible tests of skill without it. I'm not ashamed to have relied on it more than once. You could easily forego it if you're a master at dodging or maybe at knockdowns, or have a panache for setting people on fire. My only complaints are partially of my own making: If you want to complete every quest and point of interest then the pace of the story will suffer somewhat and in Skellige you'll grow to hate the water. And you'll learn, never trust a horse. The visual design has captured the atmosphere of the Witcher's world wonderfully. From the brown, dirty, muted life of war-torn rurals, to the frigid beauty of isolated islands, to the lush splendor of a perpetually partying dutchy. The only disappointment is that the graphics themselves could have been much better - luckily we have mods for that. There's simply nothing to complain about with the audio. Beautifully scored, and with excellent foley work, the emersion is wonderful. As with any RPG, you'll also wish the game had five times the voice content, but what is there is still impressive. As I mentioned, there's no lack of mods to help further enrich things as well. Too many to list but I strongly recommend two: The HD Reworked Project - an impressive bump without changing the world All Quest Objectives - will save a lot of wasted time

Эта игра прекрасна.

Сложно придумать что-то оригинальное описывая её. Очень сложно. Я давно не играл во что-то столь же захватывающее и приносящее столько эмоций. Для меня единственный минус в этой игре это то что она закончилась. Конечно, если придраться, то можно найти минусы. Кто-то говорит что от нашего выбора не так много зависит как хотелось бы. Кто-то говорит что в диалогах слишком мало опций. Есть некоторые баги небольшие, например Плотва скачущая по склону вниз начинает почти переворачиваться, а после последнего патча у той же Плотвы пропал хвост. Где-то игра не очень логична. Местами есть притензии к озвучке. Обо всем это стоит сказать для справедливости. Но игра берет совсем не этим.. В диалогах интересно попробовать все неквестовые опции. Персонажи окружающие ведьмака, все с эмоциями и почти что живые. Эта игра берет историей, сюжетом, в который ты не играешь, а принимаешь участие. Мир ведьмака живой. В ней полно отсылок к книге, а если вы её не читали, то игра дает понять что у всего есть своя предыстория и кратко её описывает. За неё просят гораздо меньше чем она в самом деле стоит. Я эту игру прошел дважды. Я эту игру купил дважды вместе с сизон пасом. Это наименьшее чем я мог поблагодарить разработчиков за этот шедевр.

Beautiful story, awful AI/game balance

The presentation values are excellent, from the gorgeous if slightly familiar setting to the carefully staged cutscenes (complete with realistic camera), the awe-inspiring soundtrack, and superb voice acting that makes even RPG staples like "thank you for saving my life for no payment" feel heartfelt and convincing. The gameplay felt thrown together to justify the excellent story. Playing through Death March difficulty, many enemies were vulnerable to the same tricks and strategies available early on, particularly with one spell that's so effective at stun-locking as to make some of your few others often redundant. Some foes neatly highlight certain tactics, such as 'extinguishing' a fire elemental via a wind gust. Some foes hardly seemed to notice me nearby. The melee is adequate, neither poor nor original, but focusing on magic makes your stamina quick to recharge and has few drawbacks, unlike the melee (repair bills) or potion-making (toxicity); the mutagen system heavily encourages specialization anyway by giving bonuses to same-type skill groupings. Since a spell upgrade allows you to quickly heal in combat for free, you can sell health foods to augment your often meager quest rewards. Most enemies aren't bulky or damaging enough to mandate potion use until the final, much harder boss fights, where to be fair, magic doesn't always help. One quest involving an invincible rat had a companion-AI/locked-door bug that nearly forced me to start the game over but for a backup save. The plot is incredibly emotionally moving but dubiously paced, with a dangerous if unexciting villain often sidelined for genuinely interesting but wildly off-topic tangents like dealing with a man's numerous 'girlfriends' or the poignant aftermath of a miscarriage. Romance feels like a botch, choosing between a woman who manipulates and disrespects you, and a kind one who's drunk at a party. The main story's conclusion is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in a video game.
