Who gives a fuck about your dumb shitty FANTASY ELVES AND MAGIC story?

They have been copy pasted ten thousand times already in all forms of media across all spectrums everywhere. It is literally the most boring fucking setting you could possibly make.

>BUT NO WAIT ITS DIFFERENT THIS TIME

But it isn't. It's the same fucking shit over and over again. It's babby's first fiction. It's the most artistically immature background to indulge in simply because it's devoid of any real depth and has been run into the ground too many times.

>>333544419
>YOU HAVE TO READ BOOKS TO ENJOY THIS GAME

Fuck off. No I don't. It's not an excuse to not make the game more accessible and easily understandable to those who don't think sitting all day reading fucking lore about a game is a good way to spend your time.

Anyway, 3 hours into the game I decided to just download a cheat engine table to get it over with as quickly as I can. And even with fucking cheats, this game bores me to death. I just skip all dialogue immediately. None of it interests me. It's just more of the same familiar fantasy themes.
>>
>>333544419
>jumping into a series that has a plot that has 8 books and 2 games behind it

I don't know what cdpr could have done differently to introduce everything to new players. That's not a valid complaint from Op.

So let me get this straight. You downloaded a cheat engine because you didn't enjoy the gameplay, and you skipped the dialogue because it didn't interest you.

That's the whole game. Why did you continue to play if you were literally skipping every part of it rofl holy shit

>>333544663
I could ask the same thing about The Witcher 3, but then I remembered The Witcher 2 was an unplayable mess so I guess you're right, The Witcher 3 is a bigger improvement because its predecessors were so bad.
>>
>>333545139
I didn't even mention the Witcher 3 in my post, the two series aren't even comparable.

Way to dodge the question and throw your salt around.
>>
>>333542329
It also helps that the avg gamer has an IQ of a potato. They gobble up the same shallow shit that gets released year after year. A decent game like W3 comes along and its goty.
>>
>>333545105
Because having found no merit in the atrocious combat and gameplay (what kind of fucking RPG is this where basic RPG functions like armor and weapons are almost nowhere to be found until at least halfway through the game?), I decided to instead see if the story had anything to offer.

It didn't. It's literally just fantasy LA Noire where you play a detective that finds out what happened to missing persons. Everyones talking about how your actions have huge impact on the world. What fucking impact if everything is the exact same after you complete the side quest?

Now I just want to see the ending and get this shit over with.
>>
>>333544917
>that kid who skipped all the dialogue and cutscenes in a story heavy game actually posts on /v/

If you did a minute or two of research before you started playing you could have easily avoided becoming this fucking upset. You said yourself the setting is boring AND elves and magic are stupid AND that you didn't want to waste time reading up on lore and yet you STILL started playing a lore heavy story driven game about elves and magic and you're fucking SERIOUSLY complaining about it HOLY FUCK you could have avoided all this if you read the fucking one paragraph description on the back of the box jesus

Well this is a thread about The Witcher 3, and the original statement I responded to was
>i literally can't think of a better modern game.
>>
>>333545809
hahaha ok

You effectively skipped all the gameplay by cheating and you literally skipped all of the dialogue. And you wanted to finish this 80+hour game to see the ending? You skipped all the dialogue for 80 hours, and you wanted to see how it ended... You skipped the dialogue how did you even know what was happening... You could have watched the ending cinematic on youtube. You are fucking retarded dude.

I didn't expect that it would be this fucking bad.

I didn't expect I'd be watching a movie with minimal interaction.

I thought it was just a lot of background lore but behind all this lied an RPG game that you could enjoy while completely ignoring all the other bullshit if you so wished.

I enjoyed that Warhammer game even though it was lore heavy as fuck and I didnt understand a thing, as well as beating Grim Dawn without once looking up what X or Y was, so I expected this would be similiar, that you could focus on the gameplay even with the story didn't interest you.

But there's just nothing to it or behind it all. It's like watching a really shitty TV series with bad acting and in between you run around a clunky environment with absolutely nothing to do which is a fucking chore.

It makes me feel like Im going to work instead of playing a video game.
>>
>>333544479
I liked bloodborne and all but 450 dollars for a game is a bit expensive.
>>
>>333546754
Grim Dawn isn't even the same fucking genre and I will reiterate that you could have avoided all of this frustration by doing fucking 2 minutes of research before you started playing this long as fuck game. How can you even complain when you went to the deli and wanted turkey but you bought ham because 'you thought it would be like turkey'. This is your own fault, you're dumb.

People who are into medieval fantasy crpgs?

You're basically shitting on the game because of its genre. Everything you said about the setting being boring and copypasted is true about every other setting including scifi, cyberpunk, modern military, post apocolyptic etc. I don't even particularly like fantasy settings but you're just a massive douche.
