The open world design is literally ubisoft-tier in its filler and POI spam, and is further destroyed by...

...the loot system, which destroys any incentive for exploration. The weapons you find are worse than witcher gear you obtained 10 levels ago, and you get witcher gear from quests anyway so its not like you have to go hunting for them.
Money holds practically no value whatsoever, and the only loot you find thats useful is alchemy ingredients. Which would be fine if...

...the combat system wasn't so barebones and bland. Throughout your 150+ hour adventure, you use one moveset, 5 bland spells, a crossbow, some bombs and optional potions. The enemy and boss design is so generic and boring though, that using all that hify shit like potions and decoction is pretty much pointless. The biggest strategy is just to mash light attack twice, backhop, and repeat. A large majority of the enemies follow this mentality, and it never truly evolves into anything more meaningful. Why does Djikstra have the same moveset as a wild hunt warrior you fight with Keira?
The game even reskins and recycles enemies in paid DLC, and then dares to call them new ones with new beastiry entries.

The quest design is made for literal braindead children who can't think for themselves. Its obnoxiously yawn inducing because the "investigations" you do are practically you just walking around in circles and spamming X so geralt can shove some more exposition down your throat. It lacks depth, challenge, player activity and more than anything else, longevity. It never evolves into anything more unique or interesting, and it persists through the ENTIRE 150+ hours.

The main quest is basically super mario in poland, where Geralt goes around picking flowers, herding goats and helping every bum under the sun just so he can get the usual message that "nah bro, I don't know shit senpai"

Skellige is wasted potential at best, and the game rushes to its conclusion way too fast after Kaer Morhen. Novigrad and Velen use up a massive portion of time, and the entire point of those areas boils down to "your ciri is in another area that requires you to go through like 20 boring side missions before anything substantial happens"

The story sets up its stakes way too high, and thus makes side content break immersion to a major degree. Theres no reason why Geralt would go around killing nekkers for pennies when the literal end of the world was around the corner.

Speaking of which, the white frost, ciris powers and all of culminating at the same time is some of the most cringe inducing shit I've ever seen. Ciri can hop between time and space because "its in her blood lmao" and the white frost is just a prophecy of "dude lmao if it happens we all die lmaooooo"

Then at the end when you defeat Eredin (who is the most bland fucking villain I've ever seen, he has less lines than reskinned shopkeepers in Velen), the white frost just suddenly comes at the same exact time and Ciri defeats it somehow and everythings awesome and then yay the game ends.
Its rushed as fuck and I lost all my interest in caring about the characters during that arc.

HOS is the best content in the game, but it doesn't fix the gameplay gripes. The story is great however and has the only good antagonist in the entire game.

B&W is fine, but again has the same problems with its open world, quest design, enemy design, and even the main quest.

Overall the game doesn't have a single piece of good gameplay, and the only thing that comes close is the boss fight with Dettlaff.
Its worth experiencing because of things completely unrelated to it being a video game. You would get the same exact experience from just watching it on youtube for fucks sake, and even then it would save you money, time and most of all effort since you wouldn't have to wade through boring filler.

This game did open world very well. I admittedly have no idea what you mean by ubisoft tier but the only game that did open world better was GTAV, the world in Witcher 3 serves its purpose just fine.


>...the loot system

Is perfectly fine. Please tell us how you found that witcher gear. Was it from Googling all diagram locations?

>...the combat system wasn't so barebones and bland.

It's not exactly Dark Souls but it's not bad, some fights are difficult and a huge improvement over Bethesda's take on melee combat.

>The quest design is made for literal braindead children who can't think for themselves.

That's just a problem with modern games. You can't make a game anymore with quest markers off and no mini map. The game is however designed in a way where you can turn that off and still have fun.

>The main quest is basically super mario in poland

Witcher 3 is a narrative driven game. If you have no interest in that or are not paying attention then a lot of activities are going to seem arbitrary and boring to you.

Challenge.

There is none in The Witcher 3

The quests solve themselves. You do nothing. The combat is easy as fuck. Light attack twice, backstep, Light attack twice, backstep, repeat

Quen is OP and so are all the other signs which you can easily abuse and make every fight impossible to lose

quest markers and witcher senses remove all the fun from quests

The difficulty doesn't matter you fucking retard

Some quests are basically fetch quests. Sure, but you're glazing for 90% of the rest of the content.

How would you make the game more difficult? there is more demand for perfection on higher difficulties and a greater reward for preparing with potions and using the right signs. It's important to remember that simplicity=/=easy. Mario is basically run and jump even on insane mods, that does not make it easy.

I had it on my 360 back in the day and was surprised by how well it ran for such a technically ambitious game. You've got to keep in mind that the game was released in 2013 and was running on hardware from 05/06. I also have GTA 5 on PC. RDR 1 ran even better than GTA 5 on the 360. I personally never experienced any extremely noticeable frame drops on both my playthroughs of the game. It is also a treat to look at and has aged very well.

By having a combat that isn't completely barebones and bland. It doesn't matter if the enemies have 10000000 hp and can one shot you, the combat is still trash because it requires doing the same repetitive thing over and over.

>It's important to remember that simplicity=/=easy. Mario is basically run and jump even on insane
Mario requires precision and timing, TW3 requires just spamming one button over and over and hitting the "press X to dodge all attacks" button once in a while. Geralt even automatically locks on and lunges onto an enemy. You don't even have to be positioned in a way that you can hit the enemy with your sword. You just click a button and Geralt does everything

>By having a combat that isn't completely barebones and bland.

Sounds like an opinion. But I am genuinely trying to entertain this concept of difficulty. More punishing forces you to play the game better and make fewer mistakes which makes the overall simplicity of the combat more engaging. I don't understand what you want out of higher difficulties than that?

Do you have a reasonable alternative?

>TW3 requires just spamming one button over and over and hitting the "press X to dodge all attacks" button once in a while.

You have to do this precisely just like on Mario on higher difficulties.

It's important to remember that this is also a role playing game and character progression is as much part of the fun as the narrative. The game is supposed to get easier as you become more powerful. End-game content like HOS and B&W present some good challenges for a developed Geralt.

There are none. Not any Elder scrolls, Gothic or anything. Maybe Mount and Blade has some depth that Witcher doesn't have but it's more a multiplayer experience.

I played on Death March and was forced to use everything the Witcher could do for the majority of the game and the first DLC. Only in "Blood and Wine" you can break the system and mess around with builds.and fun broken abilities. Otherwise you have to be on your toes and manage to crowd control and use oils, bombs and potions to get away in most fights to be effective.
You can also parry, counter-attack, dodge, roll...

Being a contrarian for the sake of being one requires talent and arguments to throw in. Give examples of what a good battle system is then ? Dragon's Dogma ? Please.

Try Axii sign, Geralt can also block and parry with his sword.

>Sprinting, running, direct and sideway heavy attacks deal different amounts of damage

Geralt has different types of moves that accomplish the same thing, however it's more complicated than mashing attack, dodging and avoiding attacks is more important than in Skyrim where mashing r1 reigns supreme. If you try to mash attack in TW3 you will not get far.

>More gear and spell freedom

Skyrim is definitely better for dress-up roleplaying.

>Enchantments and poisons are more dinamic that "deals 5% more damage to nekkers"

Geralt's magic is more dynamic than most of Skyrim, this includes shouts which devolve into dealing damage, summoning a silly AI companion or having fun with the physics engine. I'm just going to vehemently disagree with you here. Saying Skyrim is dynamic sounds ridiculous to me. I put a lot of time into Skyrim and now feel like I missed something huge.

>You aren't auto locked to your enemies

No need when combat in Skyrim is directional based only. Your character doesn't do any complex movement.

Seems pointless to compare the two honestly, TW3 is obviously more narrative based with a larger more fleshed out world whereas bloodborne is about atmosphere and combat, I personally prefer the world/atmosphere of BB and am not always a huge fan of open world, the only fair thing to say is that bloodbornes combat is far more engaging and enjoyable than the witcher's, but combat is a larger chunk of what the game is in Bloodborne
>>
>>381000065
I played the entire game with quest markers and the minimap off, it is 100% doable. Not only are there signs and roads leading you everywhere, but the characters do give you actual directions if you simply ask.

I say this, but I also agree with most of the gameplay criticisms of the first two posts. Witcher's saving grace is its story, characters, and sense of detail in its world. The gameplay is solid, but also bland as described. But you know what? That solid but bland gameplay still has more to it than 90% of other open world fantasy RPGs- I can only think of Dragon's Dogma being one that clearly beats it, Breath of the Wild too I guess, but only if you are really stretching your definition of an RPG.

Also, every thing you can examine in the game is clearly visible without witcher senses, I wish the harder difficulties turned off the glowing trails and other witcher sensing shit and let you use what was already in the game to track and hunt things for real, that would have been great.

>atmosphere

Soulsfags like to discount the importance of writing but it's necessary to even talk about atmosphere. When lore, music, level design, and character interaction coalesce you end up with a legitimately dark, atmospheric game like Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines or Majora's Mask. So although I theoretically like dark stuff, such as Berserk which supposedly inspired it, I've never been able to care about Dark Souls because it's not dark in anyway that matters.

I'd say Dark Souls combat has more combat animations and moves that accomplish different goals.

Narrative is also very important, some people do not like it but for others it elevates the entire experience.

I get morrowind but BotW? Really? The only really good design decision for that games open world were the map size, thats kind of about it, everything else about the open world undermined either the plot or some gameplay mechanic.
It's bethesedas issue all over again, it's an open world that exists as a sandbox, nothing you do anywhere effects anything else (with the only real exception being boss phases, and those don't effect the world or the people in it either, just how hard the final boss is) just with a different art style
>>
>>381010117
>Morrowind and Breath of the Wild did it much better.

Morrowind was developed in a different environment. The only way to be fair is to compare TW3 to games released within the last 5 years. The obvious answer people seem to gravitate towards is BOTW but that game is for a completely different audience and has different ways of entertaining its audience. I did not like BOTW, i found the combat very dull and I think maybe I'm just jaded because the I feel like parts of the game I've played hundreds of times before and that they were ripped from other games that did those individual parts better.

>Is precisely the problem. Pretty much everything is worthless once you get Witcher gear.

They are hard to come by. Coming by Witcher gear without Google is not easy because you have to explore. Using Google to find the best gear is probably why most people feel this way.

>That's not really an argument, anon. Everything you've said is an opinion, too. I would agree Skellige was a bit weak compared to Velen, and HOS is probably the best content in the game.

Well this confuses me. The point of saying opinion is to highlight that it is an opinion, that is not me giving a personal opinion that his argument is an opinion. Saying something is an opinion is also not an argument and just a statement of fact.

The only thing I said that might be taken as opinion is the open world design and function in which case I just redact and replace what i said with opinion like the rest of the above.

BOTW ruined Witcher 3 for me. I finished BOTW, and went back to Witcher 3 after. Play about 20 hrs already. and I liked it before BOTW.

But came back, and it just felt shit. Kept colliding into walls expecting to climb, weather animations good, kept expecting to be striked but nothing happened, couldn't solve problems with random physics shit.

Seriously BOTW has set a fuckin standard. No more skyrim clones, the focus on hyperinteractivity in open worlds has changed forever. I can't recover from playing this game.

Except that I haven't implied that at all. Not all modern games suck, but all modern games who go for this cheap shit strategy of setting the bar as low as it gets to score sales do. These "cinematic" games have stories that are only considered good when compared to the stories of other games for the most part and they don't challenge you or have any meaningful interaction whatsoever.

>These "cinematic" games have stories that are only considered good when compared to the stories of other games

Video games tell a story differently than a movie or novel can. I enjoy movies and novels quite a bit but a video game can hit home runs in ways those other two media cannot. I guess I will just disagree on what meaningful interaction and challenging is. RPG's are not challenging by design, hybrid games like TW3 are engaging and then games on the complete opposite ends of the spectrum are games like GTA where story is meaningless and it's all about having fun with physics.
>>
>>381015524
>Video games tell a story differently than a movie or novel can

Not when they railroad you into a seth path, which is a thing ALL of these games do, including witcher 3. Regardless of your choices, everything will play out just the same except for some meaningless literal slideshow at the very end. The journey, aka the actual game and adventure themselves, are completely static. That sounds like a movie/book to me.

Witcher 3 has a very motivating story but the line between side quest and main quest are extremely blurry and you can explore and take on different routes as you progress. Games give you the power of choice and exploration. Regardless of how you feel TW3 is still a video game and tells a narrative in such a way that the other two media cannot. The game has at least three different endings, and numerous endings for individual quests. DLCs also have minimum two different endings and these are all fleshed out animated and voice acted endings.

This is not static story telling, this is dynamic.

Definitely anything that emphasizes the use of signs and potions on higher difficulties. Avoid strict melee builds and adrenaline builds.

>SMT: Nocturne

Only japanese RPG I ever played. I picked it up because I thought Dante being in it was interesting. I enjoyed it and got the true demon ending. People say this game was hard but it was not, it forced you to abuse enemy weaknesses to win and had a huge grind at the end. It, like any turn based rpg, took no skill.

>Chrono Trigger

didn't play.

>Final Fantasy 6

Final Fantasy is a joke. Coming from someone who invested more time than I'm willing to admit into FFXI. Just trust me on this one.

>System Shock 2

didn't play.


All of these games are gameplay simulators with heavy emphasis on story. Anyone who says a turn-based RPG is a good game is cancerous. There is a reason those are not made anymore and the direction has moved to aRPG and real time elements.

They have attack patterns that require you to study them and it's a game you need to rely heavily on dodging. Dodging mindlessly will get you punished because you have to get the timing right. It's a skill based game which is why pvp is so huge for it.

I played every souls game starting in 2009 with Demon's Souls. Studying enemy attack patterns so you can dodge them is not different from TW3. PvP in each game has been a joke and after countless hours of it and arguing about it I've found that people who defend it prefer to take the delusional route rather than even attempt any objective standpoint so I'd rather not even bother on that part. If you enjoy your spear+shield or backstabing mindgames go for it m8.

>>381023057

>If that would be the case it woulsnt be the most played game 6 years after its release

It depends on how you define "good" ultimately. It is not a good game for many people. This does not make them hipsters, it means the game doesn't appeal to them.

The problem is that if you want to say something is good you need reasons for stating as such and something merely being "popular" doesn't make something good, it just means it is accessible and appeals to a wide audience, that doesn't make the game flawless and that doesn't make it the best option for every person on the planet especially if they don't live in a third world country where you can afford new games.


I'm curious how much longer you can sustain being intentionally retarded.

Not true. There are sets that arent witcher sets that are also very good/better. Ofieri, undvik, red rose, that vampire set from BaW to name a few.
Also there are swords that are better than witcher swords.

You obviously haven't tried eliminating the Dark Brotherhood.

>I can try to play as a golden hearted paladin but will still be forced to commit acts of unspeakable evil if I want to complete daedric quests.

This just means you're a moralfag who forgets that Daedric Princess are immoral, uncaring entities who see you and your fellow mortals as disposable pawns.

What the fuck did you expect when you sought to aid them?
>>
>>381025806

The guy you're replying to is also an idiot because you can pick and choose which daedra to support and some are morally aligned to good while others are not. Some quests also allow you to actively undermine them. Meridia for instance sounds perfect for a paladin to align with.

I can safely say /v/ was wrong about this game. This deserved the praise it got. I found this game to be far more immersive as an open-world RPG than anything else I've played. If there's any complaints, it's the combat which honestly is nowhere near as bad as people here made it out to be. My biggest issues are lock-on is completely broken and enemy attack patterns are really way too simple. Other than that, the combat can be interesting especially if you use all the signs. Weapons degrade way too fucking fast though. I don't know what they were thinking with that mechanic.

Reminder that skyrim is the best rpg ever made

You did kill him, right? Witchers kill monsters.

>>381025806
>What the fuck did you expect when you sought to aid them

To be able to them fuck themselves if not outright fight them in order to complete the quest, rather than being forced to bring them a hapless sacrifice in order to do so? It's really very simple.

There should not be literally no way to complete a quest if not playing an evil aligned character.

>>381025998
>B-but you can choose whether or not to do these poorly designed quests. That's player choice right?

>>381014687
Meanwhile these "shitty Witcher quests" not only allowed me to tell characters off but to determine which characters lived or died. I want to side with Djekstra? I can do that. I want to side with Roche and kill the former? I can do that too.

There are none. It's just too good. Too much of a masterpiece that probably will never be passed by another fantasy rpg for years to come. It really is, the game of our generation and possibly the greatest game of all time.

>The only argument Witcher fags provide is that the game is better than Skyrim and all the other Wrpg trash present on the current gen

The fact that the game is better than the shittiest shit ever does not make it good

>even considering JRPGs

There's a reason most people grow out of those.
>>
>>381034159
I did not consider them because jrpg are a completely different genre

That being said I think jrpgs are outdated and suck ass most of the time, it still doesn't change the fuck that TW3 is at most a 5/10 that gets its dick sucked because it competes against 3/10 games

In which its WRPG and JRPG competitors are 3/10? That's not how rating scales work.

Witcher 3 has an empty world, a mediocre story, a bland combat that is praised only because it's better than Bethesda's combat, almost no choices. Graphics, art design and music are excellent, everything else is mediocre or below mediocre

Hell yeah, having a world filled to the ass with shitty farms and some enemies to kill sure makes it feel alive boy

As someone who played through Witcher 1 multiple times just to make sure I did absolutely everything the game had to offer, I can't bring myself to finish Witcher 3.

Is this normal?

>>381036037
4 npcs with dialog is more content than high level bandits and a banshee

So you've never played the game?

I love the game but absolutely hated the level mechanic.

The other problem was that combat was only good when you were fighting something much, much stronger than you, as that was the only time where it was worthwhile to use all of the tools in Geralt's arsenal. Of course, the sheer amount of content and the experience it gave you meant that if you did anything resembling a completionist playthrough you would spend the overwhelming majority of your time fighting enemies that were way weaker than you, even on the highest difficulty.

It had a fucking quality soundtrack. That makes up like 60% of people's interest in a game whether they realise it or not.
