A game that is flawless in every aspect except the combat, which is merely passable. One of the most beautiful games ever made with each area being a treat to the eyes, whether it's the swamps of Velen, the city of Novigrad, the islands of Skellige or the lush countryside of Toussaint. World building is top notch - I always enjoy reading the bestiary and journal entries of various characters you meet. The characters are all fantastic, Geralt, Ciri, Yennefer, Trish, etc. are instantly likable and interesting, and while Eredin might not be the best villain ever made, it is more than made up for with Gaunter o'Dimm and Detlaff van der Eretain in the two DLCs. The story is gripping from beginning to end and the side quests are equally fantastic as well. Music is also great, especially in the Skellige region. Role play aspect is also done very well, I rarely if ever felt like my dialogue options were meaningless. Gwent is also quite addicting.
Again, combat could be better and there are quite a lot of bugs but otherwise it's an absolute must-buy and is a game that sets the standards for RPGs everywhere.

Masterpiece.
Yes it's still a tiny bit jank and combat is overly simple, even with the multitude of options you're given. But that's all the bad here. The world is beautiful and a joy to explore, quests are amazingly designed and the soundtrack is phenomenal.

An interesting plot, especially in the DLC Blood and Wine, well-written characters, graphics at an excellent level, the combat system is shit, but this does not spoil the overall impression. In terms of plot and depth of characters, the game is a million times better than the entire series of books, in general, a huge respect for the authors. Russian voice acting and Geralt's charisma are half of the game's success in Russia.
Интересный сюжет, особенно в DLC Blood and Wine, отлично прописанные персонажи, графика на отличном уровне, боевая система говно, но это не портит общего впечатления. По сюжету и глубине персонажей игра в миллион раз лучше всей серии книг, в общем огромный респект авторам. Русская озвучка и харизма Геральта — половина успеха игры в России.

There's not even a need to talk about it... If it's not the best, it's certainly one of the best RPGs I've ever played. You can buy it without fear!
