CD Projekt's fantasy RPG returns with a massive open world and fierce new protagonists capable of destroying whole settlements in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Gamers once again take control of Geralt of Rivia, a professional monster hunter with supernatural powers, and one of the last remaining witchers in the world. The titular Wild Hunt refers to a mysterious group of deathly riders who are thought to steal people's spirits, incorporate the ill-gotten souls into their undead army, and then lay waste to large swaths of land. Only Geralt can halt their deadly progress.
Players can freely explore vast environments, including bustling cities, dense forests, fetid swamps, open seas, and even underwater locales, with horses, sailboats, and a fast-travel system serving to help gamers cover long distances. The tactical combat system finds Geralt using a variety of melee weapons, magic attacks, and ranged items like his new crossbow, and players can also engage in mounted combat, or use the environment to inflict damage. New witcher senses help gamers gain clues about their surroundings, new climbing mechanics let them clamber over rocky terrain, and they can still concoct potions and craft items to help them on their adventures.
Wild Hunt features realistic weather patterns and day/night cycles, with some of the game's mythical beasts exhibiting wildly different behavior and abilities depending on the time of day. CD Projekt estimates the main storyline to last about 50 hours, with another 50 hours of gameplay coming in the form of leveled side quests. As in the two previous games in the series, Wild Hunt's missions offer a variety of difficult moral dilemmas, and the choices players make early in the game can have a dramatic effect on events much later in the story.

The depth of adventure is wonderful. Even side quests feel like main story because every interaction in the game is animated, right down to the merchants, and everyone has their own personalities. I absolutely love that! The fights are challenging, and each battle is unique. I've put many hours into this game already and I feel like the story is only just begun. Highly recommend if you want bang for your buck!
This game is great! User control and menu's are very easy to understand and that's important when the game has as much going on as this one does. Graphics are superb and maps are large.
Much like Skyrim, the game has a large open world for you to explore. There is a main quest that has an engaging story with lots of lore and history. Then there are the side quests which tend to reward you for your time. I especially enjoy the mini game of Gwent (it's a card game with in the main game that is actually quite fun and requires some level of planning and forethought.) The difference from this game and skyrim is that the tone is much more adult and dark. There is some nudity from the very start although you can skip some of it. Alcohol, sex and violence are all part of the game play. All in all I enjoy the game but try to play it when my kids are a sleep.
I didn't like Witcher 2. I played through over a third of it and stopped. The map was confusing, combat wasn't engaging, seemed like you only used one spell and the others were worthless. Just wasn't fun for me.
Since everyone was obsessed with the Witcher 3, I wanted to give it a shot. It is so much more engaging than the second one. From the story, to the quests, the combat is finally fun, I find myself switching spells all the time. I love upgrading, I love the side mini game Gwent, which blows my mind how a mini game can be so wonderful.
tl dr: If you disliked Witcher 2, like me, I think this is worth trying. You will notice an improvement.
