It may not be a perfect game, but it has many merits. The problem was not only its aggressive marketing and inclusion of a Holywood celebrity, but that the Witcher 3 set expectations that this game did not meet. I recommend to wait till its fixed and patched up to the Witchers quality. I am a guy that loves to focus on the story and immerse myself in it. In that regard this game is not a bit, but much shorter than the Witcher 3 which is a massive dissapointment for me. I wanted more, yet was warned from the beginning that it would be shorter so Im not angry or anything. I am hoping that the DLCs will bring decent length to this game, cause I dont see myself investing around 500 hours into this game in its current state like I invested into the Witcher 3.
For me this is an absolute must buy. It has the most immersive world with amazing lore and characters. The graphics arent the best and the engine is outdated. The game does have problems with stability, however after doing my first playthrough, I looked to mods for fixing stability issues and to upgrade the graphics! There are only 2 other games that can even compete with the rich lore and story, amazing quests, variety of npcs of this game imho. If you wish to see the quality and depth of the story, the options it gives you, their morality, the npcs/followers and even the quality of DLCs this game has to offer I suggest you take a look at the Youtube channel called Oxhorn and see his New Vegas playlist!
Simply love the story. The freedom this game affords you in its world and the story pacing is very much to my liking. Picked it up on a sale and it was so worth every penny, however at full price it may have been another story. I am a sucker for stories like this and the lore behind it. I love the powers this game affords you.
