>>334340191
Well, if it's not like Skyrim, then it isn't open world is it.

witcher 3 is the perfect reddit game because it lets them play a game almost as dumb as skyrim but now with the image of playing a TRUE HARDCORE PC GAME FOR PC GAMER MASTER RACE.
>>
Witcher 3 isn't an RPG
>>
It's open world like Gothic
>>
>>334342205
If it was like Gothic it might've been good.
>>
>>334342143
Skyrim isn't either.
>>
>>334342143
Skyrim is a FPS, it's basically CoD and made for that fanbase.

As a mature gamer I quite enjoy the Witcher. If the nudity had been in something like Skyrim or Minecraft, it would be there as sexualized pandering to masturbating kids, but in the Witcher it is used tastefully and makes sense within the context of a narrative.

is this post ironic or what
>>

LMAO

Both games are shit, but Skyrim can be really really good with the right mods installed.

Depends on how many levels of irony are you on right now.

Witcher 3 isn't a video game

This. It's a soap opera.

Combat for both is absolute dogshit but witcher 3 is better at everything else.

You don't need to, just pretend you do. That's how it works.

Don't listen to my post because I am also irony.

I'd call it false open world. The sprawling word is there, sure, but the design just doesn't quite tip over from linear to truly sandbox. In the end you're just going along a line to do the one quest at Village 1 and moving on to Village 2 down the road and so on. Yeah some quests send you backtracking, but that's not enough. And this is even worse on skellige, where the quests are mostly confined to single islands, and the islands themselves are effectively circular roads with fluff inbetween.

I guess I'm saying it's open world enough.

bump for curiostiy

I haven't played any Witcher
Which one do you guys recommend? in order?

That's every "story driven" open world game ever. Main questlines are always like that.

That's generally part of the issue in trying to reconcile a completely open world and a completely self-contained narrative.

>>334354625
The third is the best, play it first. Do not listen to le chronological order fags, the story doesn't rely on the other ones very much.
If you like the third one then you'll like the others and will be able to tolerate the backwards gameplay.
>>
>>334346915
Witcher 3 was much better than Skyrim but the open world aspect was far inferior. Not every criticism is 'false-flagging contrarianism' done by the conspiracy to discredit games you like,
>>
>>334339806
I do not know how to feel about The Witcher 3. I enjoyed it a bit, but mostly because of its characters and story, which was solid and was ended well. But I thought its gameplay was (relatively) ass, and all the metagame stuff like itemization was ass as well. I think the game is pretty good, but it is also vastly overrated in the mainstream community.
>>
>>334354625
Read the wiki on the first, play the second and finally the third, or if you can get behind the horrible controls on the first go ahead

the open world meme needs to die, there are very few games that can pull it right, on the top of my head newer games like The Witcher and GTA but fuck most "open world" games just have a vast landscape full of fucking nothing

Witcher 3 is the best one

witcher is more of an action game in the kin of assassins creed than a rpg though...

>>334357920
+(You)
enjoy it

Witcher 3 was by far the best major release in years and no amount of /v/ shitposting will convince me otherwise.

Keep it up it's funny as anything.
Remember that obvious downgrade.

You know that the casualized HUD part can be removed ? Also, the "potion stock" is 3 times larger now.
The game UI is designed for retards but literraly everyone with 2 brain cells can make it bette by spending a minute in the options.
