I dont know how to word this better but I have never been so emotionally invested in a video game until I played The Witcher 3. Not only is it one of the most detailed and beautiful games I've ever played, but it's one of the most strongly narrated and coherent open worlds I've had the pleasure to explore. Geralt is extremely fun to play as, especially given that so many of the side stories actually match, and even sometimes exceed, the complexity and epicness of the main storyline. The decisions you make will change everything and some cutscenes will be needing you to make quick decisions as they lead you to distinct consequences.

All of the characters in this game are brilliantly constructed and Geralt's interaction with most of them is spectacular. The graphics are drop-dead gorgeous, and for a game released over six years ago, it was and still is a thing of beauty. Its combat system, in my opinion, is one of the best out of many other games. The entire Witcher system of brewing potions and various ingredients + crafting gear + styling your character traits is what makes this game remarkably good. It's also worth noting that using the right signs, coating your swords with special oils, and approaching everything with a carefully planned strategy adds a lot of fun especially when you're dealing with different and stronger kind of enemies. Another exceptionally good thing about this game is the soundtrack; it is just a pure bliss to listen to. And last, but certainly not least, the DLC's are super worth it and they're pretty much like a whole new game.

Witcher 3 surely has its flaws like any other game, but I feel like this is one of those games where flaws are generally not something I really care about as they dont exert that much influence on the whole experience of the gameplay. To put it all together, if you want a game that is a high adult fantasy, with action/adventure exploration across several huge maps, with a decent integrated RPG system, pick this one up. You won't be disappointed.

10/10 would play Gwent again and get screwed by Monsters deck
