This game is incredible. I'm a huge fan of CDPR and The Witcher 3 is my favorite game of all time. Just walking around the city is jaw dropping. I'm enjoying the combat and hacking mini games. Running around with a sword is a ton of fun. Like their previous games they excel in story telling and design. I know people are having some big issues especially on connsole, but the bugs I've encountered have been pretty minor. For an open world game this size it's been a solid release for me. CDPR fixes their games and incorporates quality of life changes. They did this with The Witcher 3 and I'm sure they'll do that here too. I have no doubt they will only make it better over time and address the issues people are seeing.
The Witcher 3 has the best storytelling, world, player choices, combat, and graphics of any game I have played. While smaller games like Hotline Miami can deliver an extraordinary experience they are limit in scope. Taking a game with the scope of the Witcher and blowing away expectations in every category makes every other game I have played pale in comparison. For people new to the series The Witcher 3 is a complete game and playing through the previous games isn’t required. I would even argue that the previous games had a steep learning curve and could deter people from the franchise. I can’t recommend The Witcher 3 enough.
