First, I am writing this after finishing the whole game (speaking main quest and ALL side quests available to me) and the Heart of Stones DLC. Second, after approx. 150 hours into the game I am fanboying so hard, I hardly can contain myself from throwing the words 'amazing', 'awesome', 'the best ever' in every sentence but I will try to be reasonable. Also, I am waiting for Blood and Wine to come to the stores in my country just to have a neat box with Geralt on my shelf, yeah, that's how low I fell. There are a lot of reviews that tell all about the game mechanics, good-looking graphics, great plot and so on. I will tell you how Witcher takes you and brings you into his world, full of darkness and light, love and loathing, deathly mistakes and heroic deeds. It makes you come again and again, crave for more side quests, more stories, more monsters, anything involving Geralt. It hooked me on the books, the game of gwynt, the mesmerizing soundtracks, made me buy TW2 just to keep it going. From day one I saw myself roaming the White Orchard on Roach's back in my dreams. This game is hauntingly beautiful, every new location makes you do a double take and catch your breath a little. I played on Asus K555L laptop (Nvidia Geforce 940M, i7-5500 Li, 8 GB RAM) on medium settings, though I tried High but it was a little to late into the game and I was a little scared of overheating because it's +30 over here so I continued on medium. I see people complain about the cutscenes. I enjoyed them thoroughly, it's a nice way to rest between gaming and listen to sweet voice of Geralt (I am a girl if you didn't understand earlier). Credits to voice actors - they did an admirable job, I enjoyed the cinematics thoroughly. Also credits to the team of translators - Russian text was superbly written (I played with Russian localization). There are a lot of people who deserve credit for this masterpiece, it's impossible to mention everyone. All in all, AMAZING, AWESOME, THE BEST EVER. Guys, I really tried.
