    Just in time for me to actually play Witcher 3, I’m starting this weekend. I wasn’t big on Witcher 2 and just never got around to 3 until now.

      It is still my favorite game ever, regarding story, world-building, characters, music, graphics, quests and overall gameplay.

      But it’s a bit weak on combat mechanics, there I prefer Elden Ring and Dark Souls 3.

      if you’re on pc. get the friendly ui mod and try to hide the mini map and use 3d maps instead. immersion is so much better

        I sure hope so, I got quite burned on the last big budget game I’ve played years after the hype. God of War 2018 felt like a culmination of every wrong with gaming at that time (outside of mtx) and AAA games only got worse from there.

          I will say, i didn’t think the main story was that strong. But the huge amount of amazing side quests more than made up for it.

            I went into detail here. In short, nothing was actually engaging. Combat, puzzles and traversal all felt shallow.
