I need Blood and Wine SOON.
Lastly, I mostly okay Japanese rpgs, so not too sure what I'm getting intoI'm curious as to what aspects of the game are so great, that even with so so game play it makes up for it? Just curious
Usually if I find a game amazing, it's largely due to game play and everything else is cherry on top. Is the game play forgiven here because of other aspects of the game? If so, which
Again, curious, as I've been leaning on trying this game for awhile now
Never played a Witcher game, should I start here?
Some of the attitudes from people from both sides are cringe-worthy. TLOU fans need to stop being salty that another game finally got more awards while TW3 fans need to stop using the awards as some validation that TLOU somehow sucks now just because TW3 has one more award than it. Grow up people and just enjoy the games for what they are.
Every year I feel such a disconnect from these industry and press awards. They never line up with my own experience. I don't really take them that seriously.
And to think its from a smallish, scrappy team and not one of the big American AAA devs.
Absolutely phenomenal game. Good for them.
The Last of Us had GTA V as an opponent though, which received a lot of GOTY awards.
In all honesty I enjoyed TW2 more. TW3 was just a bit too heavy on the repetition and monotony, and too much of it didn't properly reward your time, Eg most loot being redundant after a point, and only Witcher gear actually being worth a damn. If they just down scaled the game a touch, or refined it so there was less typical open world dullness or unnecessary narrative lengthening, I think it could have been a much better game.
Oh, and yea the combat was definitely pretty cumbersome. They need to make it far more fluid and precise. Still wasn't nearly as bad as Eldar Scrolls combat though.
That hair, lol he created an updraft when he stood up.
Ehh...that's not really the case anymore. The Witcher 3's budget was around $82 million and CDPR's almost 300 developers strong now.And to think its from a smallish, scrappy team and not one of the big American AAA devs.

I need more content
like, yesterday
PLEASE
Bloodborne definitely does not have the same mainstream appeal as those others.The Witcher 3/Bloodborne/Fallout/MGSV all had enough widespread appeal that I really don't think it was a factor. If we were looking at GTA V and Gone Home in 2013, that would be a different story.
Edit: Looking back through this conversation, I'm really not sure what point I'm trying to make here
But back them there were more sites giving up GOTY awards, so, TLOU had more chances of getting more GOTY awards.

Not smallish by any means.
I still have Witcher 3 sitting in front of my TV unopened. Stupid SFV taking all my play time, I got to get to this and MGS5 before I die...
How many did Fallout 4 get?
More media are giving out GOTYs award, and it's not competing wiyh GTA5.

I got Bored after 20 hours of non-stop talking with sprinkled in janky combat. The definition of how to mass market a game, make it pretty and open world and people will over look the game part.
I put it above Skyrim (hot garbage) and below average games like DA:I
What are you on?And to think its from a smallish, scrappy team and not one of the big American AAA devs.

As someone who likes the Witcher but thinks Witcher 2 was grossly overrated, how would I feel about Witcher 3? Is the combat still in the AC/Arkham style of mindlessly click until dead? Is it a true open world game? Because I remember people saying the same about Witcher 2 and it definitely wasnt....
It's difficult not to compare the Souls games - I am pretty new to them but after playing DS2 and then going to Witcher 3, man, the combat felt horrible.
Good on those that enjoy W3 but for me there was far too much sitting around watching cut scenes about characters I didn't give a sh*t about.
The Souls games are just action and levelling - something which I am after as I couldn't care less about a fictional story.
