The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition

very tedious - try before you buy!

Yes, the game is very well made, from graphics to sound to depth of the game (crafting and character development are especially fun). But it's a ported console game and the movement controls as well as the general pace of the game are extremely tedious, much more so than other AAAA-titles like GTA. The horse is the only thing that gets you to fast travel points and using it is the most frustrating thing a PC player can imagine. It turns super slow, reacts sluggishly, sometimes delays and sometimes ignores commands; hell it even takes a whole lot of practice to just make the horse follow the damn road. Moving the character both in environment and in battle is similarly problematic. I know that this doesn't bother others as much (hence the strong rating of this game), but if you're easily annoyed by movement controls in console ports then I strongly STRONGLY recommend you somehow try the game before you buy it! Moving around is such a pain in the ass that for this one single, stupid, ridiculous reason I simply couldnt continue playing after only ~15hrs game time. I deeply regret buying this horribly tedious game even though I got it at a heavily reduced price (christmas sale 60% off).
