For me, Witcher 3 was a good, but not great, game. On paper, it should be my favorite game of all time since it ticks all of my boxes: RPG, Fantasy, Great writing, etc.. Sadly, one of the most important parts of the game, the controls, felt clunky and the fighting never felt satisfying, even on Death March. The 3 stars are mostly for the game's writing, which is pretty great at times. You can tell they put a lot of time into most of the side quests, which I appreciated. In the end, though, I got bored about 15-20 hours into the game. I kept waiting for the fun to kick in, but for me it never did. I still recommend everyone check it out since it seems people that enjoy it REALLY enjoy it, so it's worth the gamble.
