Sloppy combat and ongoing optimisation can't quite spoil this dark fantasy adventure, set in a stunning world of blood and black magic.

Relentlessly beautiful vistas; Reading about horrifying ghosts and monsters; Playing cards with blacksmiths; Sailing between the isles of Skellige

Frustrating and punishing combat; Frame rate optimisation is ongoing..

Immersive open world RPG that has stellar graphics; excellent voice acted characters; lots of action packed battles and mysteries to solve with Geralt's witcher skills

Heavy system requirements; long load times; small text

Richness. A hard word to get away from when experiencing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The opulence of the open-world visuals, satisfying diversity in every quest, diversion and pastime, engaging dialogue, top voice work, deep mythology, beautiful character design and enjoyable combat.

There is no question in my mind that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been worth the wait. It's sheer scale and absolution in content, alongside its surprisingly strong narrative -- both in the main quest lines, and the peripheral ones around them -- is delivered with a maturity rarely ever seen in...

Games this taxing often carry a sense of pride in their fulfilment, but are so time consuming the end comes as a welcome blessing. But I want to play The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt again, from the beginning, to do things differently.

+ Strong narrative and characters; + Dynamic quests; + Customisable combat; + Stands on its own; + Massive world

- Menus don't suit consoles; - Some glitches

After investing many hours into the witcher 3 some doubts are starting to creep in. The game is good and I am a witcher fan completing my 3rd play threw of the witcher 2 in anticipation of the wild hunt.

I remember seeing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for my first time nearly two years ago. I walked into its E3 2013 presentation after hearing great things from others and was shocked by what I saw.

Massive and diverse world; Interesting story and characters; Helpful tutorial systems; Fun-to-use magic; Extraordinary quantity of side content; Day/night cycle and weather

Repetitive melee combat; Poor leveling system; Undependable camera and target lock-on; Bugs as far as the eye can see; Tags

Geralt of Rivia may be the titular protagonist of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt , but he's also the least interesting part, and that's both a blessing and curse. The war-torn Northern Kingdoms are the true star, filled with striking shots that bring Red Dead Redemption to mind, as are the dynamic...

One of my biggest mistakes is that I haven't still found the time to read Andrzej Sapkowski's The Witcher books because now I'd have a better knowledge of this rich and dark universe.

A vast improvement over The Witcher 2; captivating narrative and one kick-ass main character; a stunning and enormous world to explore; great quest structure; first-rate soundtrack what more do you need

Certain areas lack the visual splendor of outdoor areas; camera acts weird when combat starts in confined spaces like taverns

While I've never been a big fan of the Witcher series CD Projekt Red's critically acclaimed action RPG, The Wither 3: Wild Hunt , promised to change all that despite some niggling flaws.
