Games are more than just clever coding, there's also the story, graphics, environmental art, concept design, character art, musical score and much more. In every area The Witcher 3 excels and sets new standards for the gaming industry to live up to. The latest and perhaps the last DLC Blood and Wine takes TW3 to new heights of excellence. Quite simply TW3 with all it's DLCs is a modern masterpiece that others will strive to emulate, it is the game of the year 2015, it will be DLC of the year 2016 and by all rights it will probably be game of the decade. A phenomenal success, CD Projekt Red have set the bar very very high with this one.
THe game is my favourite of all time and I am a huge fan with all the collectors items and all 3 games passed however 4 srars as this extension made the game very laggy and I am not sure why, it became quite unplayable but it is still the greatest one out there
DISCLAIMER: I have the GOTY Edition, thus why my review is missing the "Verified Owner" badge.

Blood and Wine is quite dichotomous. Its environment is beautiful and dreamy, like something straight from the fairytales that inspired Sapkowski's work in the first place, but unlike the way Sapkowski used those fairytales (adding a realistic/dark twist), this expansion just shows us the idealism of said legends. Its story involves knights and chivalry but also vampires and deep-cutting family squabbles. Its music reflects the beauty of the environment while simultaneously giving the player the sensation of melancholy because they realize this is Geralt's final adventure.
Toussaint is EASILY as intriguing as the other environments in the game. Oh, and did I mention that it's gorgeous? The color palette is bright and ethereal, both night and day. The buildings, inspired by Tuscan architecture, create fantastical skylines. The armor of the region's knights is appropriately opulent, plated with shimmering gold and silver. The list goes on, it really does feel like something straight from a fairytale or a dream.
On top of all of that, it adds new gameplay mechanics, including an endgame skill progression system that offers powerful perks that you can freely switch around as per your need. It balances out, though, because you can only have one of them active at a time. Fortunately, this mechanic DOES carry over into New Game+, so don't feel like you need to grind to make it worth your time before you finish this expansion.
To sum it up, Blood and Wine is a masterpiece of an expansion. It brings Geralt's story to a satisfying end and, well, it made me want to read the books and play the previous games that much more. This expansion has played its part in my ever-growing love for the Witcher franchise and I really cannot wait to finish my NG+ playthrough so I can go through this expansion again!
