Witcher 3 is a bad game

Well I think Witcher 3 is a good game

Okay, thank you for your opinion. Now please kindly kys.

It's quite unremarkable but the graphics leave a very good impression and there's a lot of dialogue.

though ill say my experience was about a year after it was released and because of the hype it was underwhelming for me but with such shit games lately it was still very fun

Witcher 3 is an overrated game.

It has alot of great aspects to it, but the combat and general character movement is too wonky for it to deserve all that critical acclaim.

The main story was also very weak.
>>

>>
>>376716649
Does it surprise you that people who don't like TW3 use blanket terms?
There's really not much shitposters can get on with it. Since even fans agree that the combat is a weakness. And everything else needs to be covered by blanket statements, because it has no footing.
>>
>>376716649

No.

My tastes are more objective and reasonable.

Witcher 3 got praised for all the wrong reasons, but people still fawn over it because it's the little franchise that could.

Opinion discarded. Not that there was much to go with anyway.

Probably a bit overrated, but still an amazing game imo. Great quests, great story, great world. Honestly the only thing dragging it down is the combat against human enemies. All their fucking blocking and parrying is really annoying. good thing you can break the combat and be a walking/spinning death machine
>>
The game is very good. Numerous 10/10 and GOTY awards are a proof of that.
>>
>>376717416

quest were supposed to be immersive as fuck in this game, not challenging. what did you expect, puzzles? it's a story focused game first and foremost
>>
>>376716128
Pretty much the only game I've played that deserved every bit of praise it gets.
I'm glad I forced myself through the slog that was TW1 and that "play once never touch again" thing that TW2 was supposed to be, so that I could feel the improvement. TW3 is rightfully regarded as a master piece. And I'm glad that it is. Even the fucking side quests are amazing and feature more detail than other games' main stories. Contrarians like you don't even bother me much.
TW3 is on the safe side in history.

They actually did it. They actually fucking made a game about Reddit. No dog whistles, no allusions, just pure straight Reddit pleb shit. Every fucking line is a meme. EVERY SINGLE ONE. There isn't one joke or quote in this game that wouldn't get you at least 50 upvotes. If you were a Bernie Sanders supporter, this game is for you. If you own a fedora this game is for you. If you like taking turns with your girlfriend getting rammed in the ass by imported black cock this game is for you. If you're a normal fucking person who votes Republican and enjoys games about ideas, characters, and interesting settings this piece of shit game is not for you and given the fact that there are no games like that anymore because critics and audiences can't get enough of the meme mary sue medieval fantasy shit you're better off just finding another hobby or killing yourself.

And those requiered a semblance of skill, unlike getting close to red stuff and pressing a button.
Where are the challenging quests?
Is there a single quest that doesn't completely handhold you and tell you exactly what to do, where to go and how to solve ''puzzles''?
Seriously, I was yesterday doing one in Novigrad exploring some house for Djikstra.
It told me to solve the puzzle to open the secret passage in it.
You know what it was?
Using my Batman vision to find a book in a small room with pretty much nothing else in it, and putting it exactly where it told me to.
That's a puzzle according to TW3.
>>
>>376718950
>What is fun about following things?
Are you asking if it was fun to find out whats happened to the Red Baron's wife? Yes it was. We dug out the fetus, did a ritual and I followed it to the site where she was dragged off. Then I went to Novigrad(took my time riding slow to marvel at the amazingly designed open world) and found out that she joined the witch hunters and that her mother was dragged off by a fiend, as it turned out later, because she made a pact with the crones. Yes anon, that was quite a lot of fun.
>Did you enjoy Mass Effect Andromeda too?

No, because that shit is outdated grandpa. We don't want to artificially turn a +80hr game into an 800hr game just so we can pat ourselves on the back walking around aimlessly for hours and solving a McDonalds Happy Meal tier puzzle ourselves.
Get on with the times.

Videogames that rely on story because their gameplay are completely uninteresting are failures. Mainly because those stories are always trash due to the fact that good writers never touch this industry.
No, a guy hitting his wife because that wife cucked him and her leaving is not interesting, yet the game wastes about 7 hours on that.
Doesn't help that is followed by Novigrad where the entire game slows down to a crawl.

>wut?
It's a videogame made for you.
An open world where everything is marked perfectly on the map to make exploration pointlesswith an incredibly simple, retard-proof quest design.
You even have a version of the Batman vision that you need to use to scan things, you'll probably love it.

Nice. Witcher 3 is a casual piece of shit. Horrendous "story" with a generic edgy villain with no motive and no continuing arcs except the Bloody Baron. Absolutely horrendous gameplay with no depth to speak of, copy-pasted quests about opening treasure chests with shit look and chasing reskinned enemies with the same fucking animation set and skeleton with a different colour schemes, what choices you make don't matter, and there's a whole load of nothing in the open world.

Something that isn't completely given to you in a silver plate.
If they drop you into a cave, no need to tell me exactly where to go, when to use my Batman vision, and when to use some powers.

>>
>>376720867
Yes, it means it's a game built around the idea of wanting that audience to buy the game, thus, making it as simple and easy as possible, and ensure that you'll never get stuck in a quest, that you always complete it easily because they tell you exactly where to go and what to do once there.

The game is basically a 120 hour long tutorial.

I don't know what did you expect. you wanted real trapping or something? how do you suppose they would design that mechanic without you bitching? also, you don't have to use the fucking senses

Nice. Witcher 3 is a masterpiece with an amazing story and great characters and great arcs like the Bloody Baron. Absolutely fluid gameplay with three different major approaches, lots of detailed quests about the people in the world and interestingly designed enemies, choices you make matter a lot and there's a whole world to explore.
Anything else?
>>
>>376721032
>you don't have to use the fucking senses
Yes you do, you can't scan clues unless you look at them with Batman vision, and you won't be able to see footsteps and smell trails without it.

Fuck off you absolute faggot, there was no fucking story, just chase some useless bitch around for 70% of it then fight some generic black knights with no motive or origin. Also the world has no lore what so ever
>I'm too stupid to know how to make a proper talent build
Those are spells, not builds. There's no abilities, no stats, no weapon variety, no dedicated classes, it's shit
>I didn't do any side quests
I did, nearly all of them were as I described, the rest were variations of it where you run around a boring city talking to tropes or riding your fucking horse to a bandit camp
>I rushed everything
120 hours, because I was trying to find a use of the 50gb it wasted

Why do people keep trying to downplay TW3?
It was an 80 million videogame, it's the 19th most expensive videogame ever made and had a team of almost 400 people.
TW2 was more impressive because the budget was minimal, plus the writing was far better than TW3's.

He claims the characters have no motive. There are 8 novels worth of motive and character
He claims there are no builds. You can play the game with alchemy. A spellcaster build or throwing bombs at everything.
And his final criticism
>Generic
Holds absolutely no water because had he actually bothered to pay attention (which we have seen he didn't pay attention and skipped through dialogue like a typical console pleb) then he'd know himself that calling it generic is retarded.

The story is, as I said, generic. There's nothing innovative in it what so ever. Generic villains, generic characters lusting after your cock, nothing of interest. What games have you play as a hang rolling around on a ball, or a blue hedgehog that runs fast? None. That's not a legitimate argument because following that foetus was boring as fuck.

That's it, you can't make a thief, you can't make a mage, you can't make a sword and board warrior or someone wielding a two handed weapon. Every "build" is the fucking same. The difference between your idea of a "build" is the difference between a ball spell and a beam spell, minimal.

That's only Witcher armor because the rest look like pijamas.

Funny because you have to do hours and hours of fetch quests if you want one of those armors that don't look like pijamas.

Horrible quest design. I'm glad CDPR avoided that shit and let the decisions and branches in where it matters: in the dialogue.

The reasons people praise it for makes me wonder why that "game" isn't a HBO series.
The gameplay is only a hindrance at this point, especially considering how bad it is.
Could've at least been a Telltale game.
>>
>>376724570
Too bad dialogue matters very little in this game.
So you have quests that are always completely linear except you sometimes choose a different dialogue quest, instead of having actual different ways to complete it.
Then again, that would requiere you to think, wouldn't it?

So, story matters more than gameplay?
Is TW3 a game played only by the Uncharted and Heavy Rain audience?
>>
>>376725079
So having good hearing and being able to see better in the light constitutes a floating red aura that stretches for 50000000 miles magically to a quest location?

seems appropriate, but Skyrim can at least go far more in dephts. I loved to deactivate the compass and GPS in Skyrim, never fast travel and find my way through the signs and the world itself, it was amazing.
Witcher 3 is just another Quest-Marker-Grinding game.
"go here and there, THIS is the shortest way to point A" and so on.
This is not what an RPG should offer in regards of exploration, especially if the world is pretty well done.
>>
>>376724869
Reading compehension much? As said, you simply took positive things from the game and turned them into negatives in the first place. It was simply reversed back to normal.

If you can't even read a simple comment on /v/, I'm not surprised you were overwhelmed with the winner of over 160 GOTY awards, TW3.
>>
It is a good game but the most obvious flaws come out when you're in combat and since that is 85% of what you do in the Witcher 3 then you're bound to run into bugs and shit like that. Also why the fuck is everything so expensive?
>>
>>376725268
>No I mean the varied stories and detail in terms dialogues and setting.
So, gameplay being bad is justified because of story?
This is a videogame, not a movie.

>No it isn't because he's a Witcher
That justifies terrible quest design?

>Medieval history isn't your strength it seems.
Well, I doubt women in medieval times walked around in skin-tight pants, so I think they could ignore that part of history too, even more when this is a fantasy setting.

>Optional content
Sure, unless you want to wear pijamas throughout the entire game.

>not a fetch quest. Its a treasure hunt.
Oh boy, that changes everything, it's fucking epic.

>There's no NPC you fetch something for
Ah, okay, it playing like a fetch quest is irrelevant because you are fetching something for yourself instead of someone else.

>One of the most exciting parts you mean
Oh yeah, walking up and down the same streets for about 10 hours aiding some redhair with letting some mages leave and rescuing some purple-wearing retard was very exciting.

>Besides all the side quests and events of course...
Oh yeah, you have a lot of witcher contracts of killing random monsters.
And a lot of fetch quests, of course.

>That doesnt even make sense
It does, actually.

>Shitposting due to insecurity is not a valid reason
No, the reason is that the game is bad, you having no arguments to defend it proves that.
>>

You know what, kill yourself, everyone else can see the fucking time

Let me skip to the point that isn't just you acting like a child saying "no!"
>No, the reason is that the game is bad, you having no arguments to defend it proves that.
Oh wait, its just you saying "no!" again! But seriously, there are 166 arguments in this image: >>376723272

>>376725973
It's hilarious that you actually tried defending the game writing such a long post and now you gave up and just went for ad populum.

>>376725717
Oh boy. I pity you at this point... How can someone be so bad at reading comprehension.

>>376725728
When I first played it, and wasn't running around doing question marks obsessively and selling all the shit, I remember having money issues and thinking the same thing. But even if you do a tenth of them and sell all that bullshit you should be pretty flush.

On a sidenote: Witcher contracts should pay like ten times as much as they do, and haggling is fucking useless. Why?

Not responding to obvious shitposting isnt giving up anon. Its taking the high road :^)
Also, still waiting for you to refute those 166 points. Or are you giving up?
>>
>>376726112
Economy in the game is completely fucked up.
Witcher contracts pay absolute garbage and they are only there for completion sake since they don't give either experience nor money.
It's weird, but the most reliable way to make money is grabbing all the loot you find from killed enemies and selling all the weapons.
>>
>>376726137
>The fanbase is absolute cancer and think the games the second coming of Jesus Christ

you misspelled prophet lebioda
>>
>>376725627

So your argument of why it's bad is because you don't like it?

Are you telling me all the people who enjoy the game are missing something only your enlightened skeptic mind can figure out to realise that all the fun they're having isn't actual, real fun and we should all stop enjoying ourselves?

Thanks for opening my eyes. No more fake fun for me.

Memeing aside, what do you consider a good game?

>>376726236
If you got like 3-5k for doing the witcher contracts, especially considering how high leveled many are, they would have been more motivating.

And amping up experience gain by like, 1.5 would be a nice touch too.

witcher contracts do pay like shit and geralt frequently walks around hungry in the books

>>376726449
>>376726236
And what would you do with that money though? I thought contracts where actually fine since they give you rare ingredients. And you dont have to take the contract to get them either. I completed a lot of them by accident walking into the enemies and finding out later that its a contract(or because its obvious since there's more to it than simply an enemy appearing)

You also havent come up with one legitimate reason why the game is bad.

They don't? They just realize that things are there for a reason.

No

>>376726661
Just because you don't enjoy something doesn't mean it isn't fun for other people you sperg.
>>
>>376726743
So, a game with a fun story and fun gameplay at the same time are not possible?
And in a videogame, why would I choose story above gameplay?

This is simply bad game design.
I have zero motivation to do Witcher contracts when selling ONE weapon looted from a random bandit is going to pay me more than 10 minutes of fighting against some monster.

>>
>>376726612
I wouldn't scoff at the fact that I'm killing a level 35 whatever and they're trying to pay me 300 sheckels. The game scales the cost of things, and should therefore scale the rewards. It just feels disjointed and disappointing to me. But It's really just a little thing that irritated me.
>>
>>376726875
>So, a game with a fun story and fun gameplay at the same time are not possible?
It is. Witcher 3 comes to mind.
>>
>>376726996
No, the gameplay is pretty bad.
Plus, movement feels terrible.
Why are there only two walking speeds in this game?
>>
>>376726932
Well I guess. I just didn't focus much on the money since as said, I already had tons of it and was glad to get it out.
>>
>>376726875

your dad did bad game design when he fucked your mom and that's how you were born
>>
>>376726932
That's the thing, it scales enemies, it scales loot and cost of loot, but it doesn't scale rewards.
So now i'm in NG+, where selling one random sword from those thiefs that randomly attack you in Novigrad earns me about twice what you usually get paid for a Witcher contract.
>>
>>376727074

Opinions: the post.
>>
>>376726897
Some people can't deal with the fact that other people on /v/ actually like a game for once. Thus the excessive insults every time witcher 3 is brought up.
>>
>>376727074
>No, the gameplay is pretty bad.
Thats what you think. I think its actually pretty good.
>Why are there only two walking speeds in this game?
What do you need more for?
>>
>>376727167
This is pretty much true.
Not only is TW3 a huge succes. No, its also a game that the majority of /v/ likes. Which triggers the contrarians.
>>
>>376716128
NO! You take that back!
>>
>>376727229
>What do you need more for?
It feels better, MGSV is a good example of well made controls. (too bad about the rest of the game)
Plus, when there's an NPC walking that I need to follow, walking normally is too slow, and normal running is too fast.
What's even worse is that originally there were more walking speeds, you could walk slowly like when you are in a tabern, and yet they randomly removed that in a patch.
>>

Modern RPGs in general are all absolute trash, no matter if they are TW3, Fallout 4 or Bloodborne.

>Plus, when there's an NPC walking that I need to follow, walking normally is too slow, and normal running is too fast.
Uh, in TW3 NPCs are set to your pace. If you go slow, they go slow. If you run, they run. And if you stop, they stop too.
>>
>>376727510

I must have forgotten that TW3 was a stealth/shooter game

>>376727621
If there were contrarian awards, you'd be eligible at this point.
>>
>>376727731
Nice reading comprehension.
No, it's an open world game, and I bet in both TW3 and MGSV you have gameplay mechanics called walking and running.
If TW3 had controls that felt like MGSV, except combat, of course, it would be much better.

Is complete bullshit.

No, not really.
TW2 was far better than TW3, plus it didn't have a pointless open world.
Far better story, too.

You're welcome. Try not to rage too much when you feel left out again though. Remember its just video games :3

Semantics? I'm sorry what? This has nothing to do with semantics. The line:

Is factually wrong. Everyone who played the game knows this.
>>
>>376728792
It will happen within the next decade due to quality of videogames dropping like a rock, and videogame sales stagnating.
Look at big franchises, costs keep going up yet, for example, Battlefield 3 is still the best selling BF or MW3 is still the best selling COD.
This is what will eventually cause it's demise.
