    Developed by CD Projekt RED, The Witcher 3 is one of the best games I ever played. The gameplay is ok and the graphics are awesome.

    Played in a third-person perspective, players control protagonist Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter known as a witcher, who sets out on a long journey through the Northern Kingdoms. In the game, players battle against the world's many dangers using swords and magic, while interacting with non-player characters and completing side quests and main missions to progress through the story.

    I enjoyed this game very much, especially this scene:

    As you can see, the soundtrack is epic, the story is nice, everything is fine.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is more than 30 times larger than previous Witcher games, requiring players to sail by boat to some locations and ride on horseback to others. Fast traveling to already-visited locations, however, is also possible. The open world in The Witcher 3 was described as "20% bigger than Skyrim".

    The game begins with Geralt of Rivia searching for his lover, the sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg, with Vesemir, a senior witcher. Yennefer had previously tried to get in contact with Geralt, but was forced to flee in order to avoid the fighting between the warring powers of Nilfgaard and Redania.

    I will drop a link with an amazing rap about this game



    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt features the REDengine 3 game engine, developed by CD Projekt RED and designed specifically for nonlinear role-playing video games set in vast open world environments. It is supposed to help eliminate many of the game development trade-offs previous developers faced, allowing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt developers to create "an open environment with a complex, multi-thread story". CD Projekt RED has integrated the Umbra 3 Visibility Solution into its engine to handle occlusion culling. Engineers from Umbra and CDP demonstrated the use of the technology at the Game Developers Conference 2014. As in the previous two Witcher games, players are presented with a complex story featuring multiple choices bearing associated consequences. But REDengine 3 allows for a complex story line without sacrificing the design of the virtual world.



    On 7 April 2015, CD Projekt RED announced two expansion packs for the game, titled Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine.Hearts of Stone was released on 13 October 2015, and Blood and Wine was released on 31 May 2016.

    The first expansion, Hearts of Stone, follows Geralt coming in contact with a mysterious entity known as the Man of Glass and an immortal man named Olgierd von Everec. The expansion was met with critical acclaim, scoring a 9/10 across media outlets IGN and GameSpot.The second expansion, Blood and Wine, follows Geralt as he travels to Toussaint, a Nilfgaardian duchy untouched by war, as he hopes to track down a mysterious beast terrorizing the region. The second expansion was also met with critical acclaim, scoring a 9/10 from IGN and 8/10 from GameSpot.

    A Game of the Year edition, which includes the base game and both expansions, was released on 30 August 2016.

    You can buy the game from Steam/G2A/ or Kinguin.

    The game definitely looks really good visually. Do you think if the graphics weren't as good you would still like it as much? I know for myself that really good graphics really help pull me into the story and want to see what is next, even if the game is great if the cut scenes suck it is kind of hard for me to connect with it and on the other side, even if the story needs some work if the graphics are phenomenal then I can kinda just focus on that.

    The story is the best part in a game, but without good graphics you can't enjoy it at 100%. Just my opinion. If you want to see a similar story but different graphics, you could compare the witcher 1,2 with 3
