My all-time favorite video game. I adore The Witcher 3. Fantastic main story and engrossing side missions that are frequently more engaging than the main stories of most other games. Fluid combat, beautiful open-world. 200-plus hours of gameplay and every moment was awesome, CD Projekt Red hit it out of the park with this masterpiece. If Cyberpunk 2077 is even half as great as this games it’ll be my Game of the Year.

Buggy, but good story

The story is fantastic. The control of the characters is really touchy. The horse gets stuck on every twig sticking out of the ground. Also, about once an hour, I have to reload a save due to a bug. The character gets stuck on something. Or the person you need to speak to to continue won't respond.... Outside of those two fruatrating, but overlookable flaws, the game is outstanding.

If you're looking for a story driven game with a lot of content, then look no further. The Witcher delivers on all fronts, and was an excellent value for how much game play it offers compare to other $60 games when they're released.

This is one of the best video games I've ever played! The graphics are gorgeous, sound is immersive, monster and character designs are awesome, and the story is epic. There is so much to do in the base game alone, it guarantees hours of gameplay. The combat fantastic. With a mix of melee, ranged, and magic attacks at your dosposal it can feel very rewarding taking out enemies. Preparation is essential to combating the different types of creatures in this world. The side quests are really fun and engaging.

I am just starting to get into the game but I am liking it so far. The story is compelling and the writing is superb. I feel like the developers did a good job with making the player care about the characters.
Seeing as how this is a very long RPG, I am just starting to dig deep. With that said, many reviews have already stated it is a decently long game. For that fact there is definitely value in the amount of time you can invest in the game.
In terms of performance it runs fine on the Xbox One. There are a few hiccups here and there but they are working on patches to improve the overall experience.

This game is one of the best I've ever played! Graphics are amazing and the story line is great. The amount of things you can do in an open world is pretty cool as well! You won't be disappointed with the purchase!

If you are a fan of open world RPGS, player choice, and hundreds of hours worth of game play then I suggest you take a look at The Witcher III Wild Hunt. I have already sunk about 60 hours into this game and have finished about 20% as this game is simply massive. It is not just big for the sake of calling it the biggest ever, this world is filled with tons to see and explore and great quests to under take. If you like games like skyrim and dragon age then I would suggest you take a look at this one. As someone that places the elder scrolls series and fallout series in their favorite games of all time list, this one just might be at the top...until fallout 4 that is! Seriously, get Gamers Club Unlocked and get this game!

I don't nor can devote hours and days to playing a game, not that I don't wish I could sometimes. I do really enjoy just going around walking, riding Roach, and it's not the same areas over and over again.

Incredible graphics so many stories are in this. Combat and movement are ok, but the open world is awesome. Dozens of main and side quests, and plenty of free DLC to keep you busy for months.

A well-rounded game with a massive free roam world, awesome graphics, and a great story line. The previous 2 Witchers were great and this 1 definitely won't disappoint. A must play!!!

I finished the Witcher 2 right before I started this game, so I was expecting something like that... but this game is far better, it's Witcher 2 + Skyrim!
What that means is that the game is open world (there are zones, but they are huge apart from the starting zone)
So many quests, with good rewards, also lot of sub plots that are awesome and intriguing, and there are plenty of side activities to do like the card game Gwent, hand to hand combat.
There are main plots, secondary plots, Witcher contracts (monster hunting) and Treasure hunts!
I am well over 80 something hours in and there is still so much to do, get this game cause it is amazing :D

Gotta Say beautiful game, i am not super far in the game, but the side quests are done with as much care as the main storyline! unlike a lot of games, the graphics are solid, weather is freaking amazing, storms look intimidating and massive, trees sway in the breeze. The world feels alive. Combat is smooth and refined from the previous games, making things just a button away, switching signs is smooth, maybe a bit more simplified for some, but i love it, makes it quick and responsive rather than slowly planning everything... But planning before battle makes a massive difference. Loving the game, excited for the next several days of immersion!

Best Game of 2015 So Far

This is one of the most expansive, beautiful, and well thought out games I have ever played. The day/night cycle and changing weather show off the gorgeous graphics. The speed of the game is just right and the combat system is challenging enough that you need to plan ahead, but not frustrating by any means. The quests give you a good variety of actions to do and there are also plenty of other distractions in the world to keep you engaged for hours on end. So far, the story is interesting and I wake up every day looking forward to seeing what happens next. If you are an RPG fan, do not hesitate to pick up this game. You won't regret it.

All developers should take lessons from CD Projekt Red, they give you the sound track, map, compendium and so much more for buying the regular version of the game. They also give you 16 free DLC packs for free! This game is beautiful, expansive and deep. There is so much to do, the colors in this game pop and are so vibrant! I know I will spend a lot of time in this world and enjoy it. This was a game I knew I would buy without reading reviews. Oh and for those of you who wonder if it would be hard to understand if you didn't play the other two Witcher games...it's not, This is the first Witcher game I have bought and played.
