How come the "Witcher 3 is GOTY!" meme didn't save it?

>Current Witcher 3 players:

>People would still rather be playing Skyrim than Witcher 3

According to /v/, a bad game like Skyrim should have lost its appeal a long time ago. How come that isn't actually the case, and can someone explain this phenomenon? But more importantly, how come Witcher 3 doesn't have as good mod tools as Skyrim?

Witcher 3 fans even said the new DLC would save it, and certainly the Steam summer sale didn't help it
>>
>>343840336
The short answer is that Skyrim is baby's first rpg that appealed to a lot of normalfags that think they're a part of some cool underground community via the mod scene. There you go.

It looks unbelievable. When I heard that Bethesda are doing a remaster of Skyrim, I thought it was just few HD textures put here and there.

I have never been so wrong, they're actually remaking this gem from scratch. New Skyrim looks, AND plays totally different.

I am sold. It will feel like a totally new game.

And as far as I know, Skyrim Special Edition has the potential to become the very best game of current gen.

it literally shits all over solitude
... hell, not even rockstar can make a city on that scale with that type of detail and complexity

witcher3 rapes skyrim's nigger face
>>
>>343840336
Honestly? It's cause Skyrim is ten times more fucking replayable, especially cause of mods. Witcher 3 is a great game but face it, it's always fucking Geralt. People get tired of that, they want their waifus and their edgy thieves, assassins, archers, whatever the fuck and Witcher 3 won't provide that, it's approach is fundamentaly different. Blind fanboys can deny all this all they want but it's fucking true. Skyrim is just more fucking flexible.

You can pretty much guarantee the majority of the people currently playing Skyrim are using mods and doing content that wasn't made by Bethesda.

To be fair, that's a pretty good number for a game without the monumental appeal to casuals, a long history to keep people hyped on the series, nowhere near the marketing and lacks the huge modding community to keep it alive with thousands upon thousands of mods.

That's a pretty damn good number.

What's even more embarrassing is that despite Witcher 3 being a way more casual/dumbed down game it still can't achieve the popularity of Skyrim.
>>
>>343840336

OP, my polish girlfriend just convinced me to buy this game, and holy shit, I'm addicted, just made an attempt at the werewolf of wild heart quest, and when that fucker started regenerating health, I fell in love.

Enemy complexity in this game is so satisfying, the fact that you actually have to prep for fights, and that spamming attacks and reloading over and over just doesn't work feels amazing.

First time I've played a witcher game, set on Blood and broken bones difficulty and /v/, it feels like I'm playing vidya for the first time.

Skyrim appeals to the greatest common denominator, I've pirated it, purchased it and played it, very simply, it was autism and mods that kept me attentive, but this, this witcher game is amazing.
>>
>>343841537

Alpha Protocol has a class/morality system

Planescape Torment has a class/morality system

Witcher 3 has Geralt who is a neutral spellsword with some Alchemy. There's no drastic alterations to this character because the lore won't allow it

Skyrim is as flexible as a plank of wood, without mods the game has like four significant choices and you're the same character every fucking time, I'm not a witcher fag but at least you can play geralt as an asshole, a good guy or netural. Skyrim is just shit without mods, at least witcher is playable without them.

It became popular among normies so /v/ can only hate it. It's the unwritten rule. It is in fact one of the greatest games to ever be released. The Witcher 3 is among them.

Mostly because even though /v/ constantly screams that "immersion" is a meme, it remains one of the more compelling factors that'll make a game successful long-term.

See also fallout 4. It doesn't have to be a supurb technical achievement if it's fun to lose oneself in for hours.
