Not a perfect game, but a masterpiece nonetheless. A game that is so much more than the sum of its parts. A game that well-deserves its seat at the table of all time greats. Play it.
This game released to hype and praise that is rarely seen in the video games industry. 7 years later it has what could only be described as a near untouchable legacy. Personally I don't know if this game is quite the god-like masterpiece that many tout it as, but it is certainly a great game. There is a bit too much filler content in the world, and the minimap/hud are just terrible (though easily fixable with mods), and these things bring the game down a bit, but the incredible stories and sisequests to be found here are truly a sight to behold. The combat as well, while not ground-breaking, is some of the best I've seen in a game of this type. Narrative/quest focused open world games tend to have terrible or just straight up boring combat, this game does not. Overall I can't quite give it 5 stars, I think there is room for CD-Projekt to outdo it, but it is a fantastic game and certainly one of the best open world games out there. 4/5
