O KURWA LAZARE
Yeah. Great game
PAMPARANNN PAMP PAMP PAMARANNN
yes actually eagerly awaiting the final DLC, even more so than any other game on the horizon.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODRIN
>>332387552WHERE ARE YOOOOU
The release should be in Q2 2016 so at most we have 12 weeks of waiting.
>>332387245
Yes great game that is nearly a year old. Where has the time gone?
Yes . your that dull game with a horrible stale main protagonist and really really shitty combat system. Oh and you also got outclassed by the ps4 exclusive bloodborne.
Um hey man, how's it going? Need some cash to get by or something?
I would remember you more if CDPR actually releases the fucking REDkit instead of that poor excuse they call a "Modkit"
I really want Blood and Wine already. If it's anywhere as near as good as Hearts of Stone then it's going to be GOAT.
Why did they have to set the release date to just after Dark Souls 3 though?
>>332387662
>this much asspain in a single post
>>332387760
It's the "crowning jewel" of the series, and the last thing they can do on the Witcher series, so they're probably going to take their time until it's as good as they possibly can make it.
>>332387245
You ruined gaming for me forever.
Now everything I play is shit by comparison.

I honestly have no idea how I could play this game if I didn't have 8+ hours a day to allocate it
>>332387245
How could I forget?
Amazing game.
>>332388038
>Readers pick: 1

>>332388038
I'm surprised it dominated that hard with sony, kojima and FUCKING BETHESDA on their backs. Truly a masterpiece of a game if even reviewers were too ashamed to take Todd's paycheck
>>332388038
The only disgrace in that image is that Fallout 4 got more GOTY awards than Bloodborne. Rigged.
>tfw care more about the upcoming dlc than any other games this year
>>332387245
Just started this a couple of days ago. I'm having more trouble with the combat system than in any of the souls games and the loading screens last fucking forever. I'm really not into medieval fantasy either, but people wouldn't shut up about this game being the new jesus of wrpgs, so I had to give it a try.
>>332388142
>implying a semi popular ps4 exclusive could ever compete with a bethesda title regardless of circumstances
Lucky as shit Witcher 3 came out last year or bethesda would be getting away with another 200 awards
>>332388013
might be good but likely wont be goty material.
>>332388038
goddamn.
>>332388170
Take a step back and think what you're doing wrong, the combat system is actually pretty neat despite what spergs try to imply and spamming attacks mindlessly will often get you fucked especially against groups.
Boss fights are a fucking joke though
>>332388132
Not garbage just nowhere near goty level
>>332388135
Not surprising considering how much good will CDPR and the Witcher was earning for the past few years.
>>332388142
Fallout 4 is shit but Bloodborne is niche. What did you expect?
>>332387662
>stale main protag, kinda, shitty combat system, yes...
>MUH BLOODBORNE DIDN'T WIN GOTY ;________________________;
>>332388142
I'm just as big a Sonygger as anyone (PS4 and Vita all day), but Bloodborne isn't THAT special.
The story and lore was decent, the combat was slightly faster and aggressive Dark Souls, and the art design was pretty cool, but it wasnt GoTY material.
I think most of us would have rather been playing a good Dark Souls / Demons Souls game, but DaS2 was shit, so BB was just a really nice filler until DaS3.
>>332388353
Truth be told I was expecting it, but still got a bit surprised when it dominated so hard. It was a pretty hard year and bethesda have always been favourites with no one daring to oppose the hivemind
>>332388393
I almost fell for the shilling and got a ps4 for it, but then I remembered I played both DeS and DaS1 completely offline for 1 playthrough and never went back. I have no doubt its good though, gonna try it when I pick up a ps4.5 since by then a couple of games I want will be out
>>332387245

Of course, you were the best game of 2015.
>>332388883
You're trying a little too hard.
>>332388038
>in an industry this casual this is surprising
no
>>332388883
Maybe the reason why bloodborne didnt get many more goty awards was because not everyone could justify paying 400 dollars for a system with one game?
Regis? Saskia and Yorveth would be neat but IIRC CDPR said they won't be in the DLC.
>>332388979
but everything he said is true
witcher 3 was forgettable, dont pretend it wasnt just to feel better about not playing bb
>>332389052
>still no Iorveth
;_;
>>332389095
I thought it was solid 9/10. The combat wasn't perfect and the story had a little too much padding and downtime, but other than that, it was absolutely brilliant. Heart of Stone was even better.
>>332387245
If Bloodborne didn't come out the same year /v/ would unanimously call this game shit. You know it's true.
>>332388636
CDPR really is a master at PR. They have been building up so much good cred for the past few years that not even an obvious downgrade affected them. Then with everything that it did right it's not surprising.

>>332388282
>spamming attacks mindlessly will often get you fucked especially against groups.
Yeah, noticed. And groups are pretty much the only thing you ever have to fight.
I get what the game is going for. You're fighting powerful, inhuman opponents stronger and faster than you, using your wits, tricks and tactics. But in practice, this generally just means spamming dodge and praying one of the enemies gets randomly separated from the pack so you can kill them off one by one, without being gangbanged the instant you lower your guard. Which isn't very interesting.
>>332389052
Saskia and Iorveth are a no go. Something was found in the files that related to Regis but CDPR would really have to break the lore to bring him back though I suppose it's not the first time they have done so.

Regis likely won't appear in games, he was mentioned in first part. Sapkowski said that he will regenerate, but if cutting his head of took more then 50 years to regenerate... Well, he is dust now, so it will take some time.
>>332389338
This, fucking this. They did some mistakes and shit with Gwint Cards, deleting dice poker and downgrade, but I can't blame them. Making games is still business and at least they play fair with players.
Also, they are one of few people that know difference between fucking DLC and true, old expansion.
Blood and Wine is gonna be like... good wintage.
Also, Cyberpunk. If they will success with this as they did with fucking Witcher 3 and if game will be even better, they will get everlasting fame, like Troika and Black Isle back in time.

>>332391721

>>332392049
They changed it a bit, but I don't remember changing white frost. Sapkowski never stated that they can't use energy like this (actually, they open portals to world where there is fucking cold as hell, future alternative Witcherworld. Sapkowski stated in last book that White Frost is Ice Age coming back)
>>332392108
Reminder that Troika literally sacrificed the studio to make VtMB.
>>332387552
OOOODRIN! KOCHI KOCHI ODRIIIIIN!
>>332392258
Nah, it's a misconception that Bloodlines killed Troika it certainly helped because it bombed like a motherfucker, but they were still operational and pitching other projects to publishers, one of which was Arcanum 2. Problem was no one was willing to fund their projects so they used what money they had to give their employees proper severances and medical insurance and closed earlier. Even during that period Troika treated people right instead of just kicking them out on the street which seems to be the practice these days. Not to mention one employee made Bloodlines patch 1.2 after closure and on his own free time.
>>332391949
>Black Isle
>now this
Holy shit.
>>332392247
The White frost is not in inner dimensional space entropy and is just the planet tilting on it's axis in the books which creates an ice age. CDPR changed it a lot. Also it never got stopped and makes the Witcher world inhabitable 3000 years after the events of the final book.
>mfw people compare Skyrim and Witcher 3 Steam numbers
>>332392420
I thought the misconception was that Activision killed Troika.
>>332391818
Obligatory
>>332392597
That's not a misconception. Activision mismanaged Troika horribly.
>ask them for multiplayer mode
>one year later tell them to scrap multiplayer mode
>>332392725
Maybe so, but Troika was pretty efficient on digging their grave by themselves. Bloodlines was over ambitious, over budget and over time. Activision even gave money to Troika so that they could finish The Temple of Elemental Evil and work on Bloodlines exclusively.

Wait. Wait. Wait. Wut?I haven't picked up the season pass yet because there hasn't been a sale. Tell me more about Hearts of Stone
>>332393248
If you liked Witcher 3, Heart of Stone is basically that, but with better bosses, gameplay, characters, story and pacing.
>>332393248
How have you NOT heard about HoS?
Felt like an Ubisoft game with a boring story (muh Ciriii), a Mary Stu main protag and an empty map filled with uninteresting '?' and repetitive quests.
Syndicate did the detective stories right tho.
>>332393248
I would also implore you to not spoil anything. Go in as blind as you possibly can.
>>332393332
>>332393334I never even finished the first area in Witcher 3. I spent 30 hours killing bandits and drowners at map markers and then I uninstalled because I couldn't handle it any more. Ghost baby was cool but I can only kill so many drowners to collect recipes to make equipment that I can't even craft before I have a nervous breakdown.I'm actually reinstalling it now because my buddy has been telling me to ignore all map markers and I'm gonna try.

Bloodborne isn't steampunk, Helsing didn't invent werewolves, it's more of a ripoff of Lovecraft than anything, and this is a Witcher thread. Are you okay anon?
This game caused the worst buyers remorse I ever had.
>>332387245
Pirated it, played for 150h more or less.
It was fun, but I had more fun with Fallout 4 and Bloudbourne.
>>332393784
MGS is such a rambo ripoff. :D
>>332393790
It's the deep seated knowledge that if I don't grind every map location to get the best equipment possible, Geralt will be unable to progress later in the game.
That, or I just have brain problems. I preordered Witcher 3 for about $10 because the gray market still existed at that time and got my 30 hours of grinding in, whereas I'm $60 in on Fallout 4 with the season pass and I'm pushing 80 hours.

That's true. Frostbite 3 is great. To bad bioware can't do anything right anymore.
>>332387245
Played it yesterday. I finished off Hearts of Stones and it's fucking incredible. Honestly it's probably one of my favourite games.
>>332394590
they are lot of tweaks/effects that could run perfectly fine on most of PCs but im pretty sure they didn't bother/run out of time since they went for a build focused on consoles.
>>332387245

Everything related to RP is utter garbage, dialogues are cancer tier, but the exploration, gunplay, guncraft, settlement building and Piper is fun.
>>332395047
>Open world itself and exploration was god tier, 10/10.
Not really because it doesn't feel like a world. I guess it's true if you want to just explore an area and find shit all the time, but Fallout 4, just like F3 and Oblivion as well as Skyrim, scream THEMEPARK where you can't walk five minutes in any direction without finding something. Witcher 3 is honestly on the opposite side of the spectrum in that how its world is structured is very believable and coherent, but all those question marks in the middle of nowhere exist so you would actually HAVE a reason to go there because game doesn't really utilize it's big areas well. Witcher 3 has so-called open world primarily for immersion and not really because it's designed for the same Bethesda audience.
>>332395047
I wasn't a fan of the world in 4, it was dull to me, damn shame too. After the initial crushing disappointment of Skyrim I managed to find some fun in it and enjoy myself. Fallout 4 is lost on me, no fun to be had.

>>332395412
You are entirely right in a way. TW3 is made to be more believable, and Skyrim, Fallout 4 are themeparks, big sandboxes, just packed with shit. As much as I loved TW3, and I played it for 150h, the world was shit for me. Like, trully shit. Empty with a few copy pasted bandit camps here and there.
I liked the "themepark" aspect of Skyrim and F4, just walking around and finding hidden shit all the time. Bethesda has no idea how to make main quests, good animations, good combat, but nobody can make worlds as interesting as theirs imo.
>>332395779

I'm not too familiar with Witcher lore, but aren't they still weaker than say, werewolves, and other pure monstrosities they fight? The mutations and training just give them a fighting chance where ordinary humans would have none.
was he the devil?
>>332387245
Still waiting for that B&W release date announcement.
>>332397619
wait, is this actual card in the game?
>>332397227
Witcher is far more powerful then normal human. Still, most of monsters can easly kill them if they aren't careful... and wizards can rekt their shit without much problems.
Still, Witchers are faster and stronger then ordinary human would ever be. Also, people fear them as fuck (in tabletop Witcher you get bonus points of fear and reputation drop if anyone see more then two witchers in group. Really, those guys alone can take many people with them before then die. Group of them? If you don't have wizard backup or small squad of people with crossbows, run)

>>332397227
There are creatures out there that can beat a witcher in a fight for example Geralt lost a fight to a bruxa in one of the short stories and was saved at the last second by someone else.
>>332397619
I think he was just a creature from another dimension. Him being the devil or God wouldn't make sense given the Witcher universe. He wouldn't belong at all.
>>332392027
By the time the game comes out it'll be a quaint period piece.
>>332397619
why did he disappear at the end?
beating him in a silly bet casts him away? or did he just leave?
>>332399208
He was probably only held in the world by the pacts.
>>332399208
he has to play by the rules>>332399252
whatever he was there was something that held him in place
>>332394208
>It's the deep seated knowledge that if I don't grind every map location to get the best equipment possible
Or you could just play the game normally and focus on dismanting instead of being horribly autistic and still get the best gear.
>>332397619
No him flat out being devil wouldn't fit given the witcherverse, Probably just a creature from another dimension. Think along the lines of a Djinn.
>>332399525
>>332399594
so someone has to summon him to request he comes back?
Is that what Olgierd did?
Been awhile since i played it...
>>332398241
Doubt that he was. He acted more like a demon and wasn't omnipresent
>>332399739
That's what Olgierd did. He's not dead, just gone.
>>332399739
I'm fairly sure he doesn't act on summons, he acts freely on his own pacts. He can be summoned via directly or indirectly like the poor professor did by looking too deeply into him, but I'm certain he mostly deals in pacts and then at the end of the pact he's free to enslave more souls.
>>332399823
Yeah that and given that we don't know if Gods actually exist in the witcherverse and how the author talked about religion in the books and that the main character is an atheist lead me to believe that the author implied that there are no gods. The only thing I can recall that showed that Gods might exist is that Yen had that whole trance with the Goddess in the 6th book but that was in a trance so who knows what was happening. Him being a powerful demon and a monster makes more sense then a godlike figure. Now the power of Destiny is very real but godlike figures wouldn't make much sense given the lore and everything.
>>332387245
Yeah. Had fun. Going to replay the whole thing when the next big DLC is out
>>332400305
Pretty sure it's implied in base Witcher 3 that Skellige deities do exist a couple of times.

When? The garden was a massivr pocket of magical energy that can be found throughout the world of the Witcher caused by the conjuction of spheres. The game never implies that deities exist.
>>332393334
It cool that David Beckham made a guess appearance
>>332400965
The Berzerkers at the feast weren't men turned into bears, they were bears turned into men because of some ancient ritual involving human sacrifice towards a banished God.
Still wasn't a fan of the ending, it felt rushed, which was a shame because so much of the game before that was exceptional, and then the ending kind of tried to shove everything including place to wrap it up in about 5 minutes with next to no explanation. Thought the new conjunction of the spheres leaves the possibility of sequals more open, with maybe a new Witcher school being founded and being a true RPG with character creation?

Given what we know though it was probably just some sort of cursed enacted by magic. Happened in the books.
>Witcher III is the pinnacle of RPG excellence and is praised up and down despite focusing almost entirely on its story and presentation while the gameplay and world design are an afterthought
This is what is wrong with games today. Even Bloodborne was watered down for a wider audience. This game was exactly like Witcher II, boring gameplay and pointless dialogue choices that don't affect the story. This game exemplifies exactly what's wrong with games today, it's far too shallow and puts all its effort into its narrative.
>>332388218
I've been playing the jap version, literally just after I got done playing Witcher 3 the day before.
DS3 is definitely GOTY for me
>>332394208

>>332395047
Curie is superior. Better robutt than Spic.
This is a game where BUILD WALL is a mechanic you fucking shit.
>>332393452
i explored the entire south part of valen before doing the main quest. took about 16-18 hours.
>>332401510
>puts all its effort into its narrative.
it doesnt. most of the effort went to presentation. many part of the plot and worldbuilding is lackluster. it certainly get better and more colorful main and supporting characters than new vegas but outside that it falls flat.
>>332401449
To add more. It's mentioned that temples are built around the magical pockets of energy. Priest and priestess like to think they get their gifts from Gods but in reality they just draw upon the magic force that surrounds their temples. Yen mentions it and Nennke even though she believes in Melitle says something similar. Actually wish we would have gotten her in the games she was a cool character and it would have been interesting to see Geralt interact with his mother figure.
>>332393521

Seriously, the skybox in TW3 was abysmal, and this is the same bullshit as in pic related.

Nice try fampai desu nee
I just picked this game up last week, and I'm having a great time. It's one of those games that make me want to explore everything.
Should I pick up Hearts of Stone? I'm still chasing Ciri right now, does it matter where I'm at in the game with the dlc?
>>332387662
Please Witcher 3 outsold BB by a million in its own platform. You'r game didn't win.
>>332402380
Yes, Yen, Ciri, & triss will comment on your scar made by gaunter, dunno about the rest as I beat the game then played the DLC.
>>332402380
Just do it after beating the game though. I played a bit of it beforehand, and the pacing between Hearts of Stone and the endgame felt... Awkward. But yeah, I recommend it. It's lengthy enough and the story is decent.
>>332402541
Its better if you do it near the finale, because you'll miss some extra dialogue
>>332388135
It was well received in Japan. Having a very well done localization for multiple languages definitely helped. I often saw Nips commenting about that song by Priscilla for instance.
>>332402691
Have they patched the transitions between the audio clips in that song yet? It was pretty awkward.
>>332402618
That's pretty much what I did. I did Hearts of Stone before going to the camp for the final battle against the Wild Hunt. It still felt kinda weird. Stupidest mistake in my life because the urgency in both cases just died and rotted in a hole.
>>332387245
>First Dragon Age: Inquisition
>Now this
It's OK, once vidya journalism has got over its Game of Thrones jealousy it can freely admit that Bayonetta 2 and Bloodborne were the GOTYs of their respective years.
>>332402618
Ah, okay! Thanks.
>>332402304
Yes, it's an obvious bullshot, they are lying again, there is no defending this.
>>332402167
I'm not talking about the LOD itself, the skybox in-game looks terrible, the one in the bullshot is way more vibrant and sharp.
Now I do understand that this is a different place, so a different look to the sky, but the same situation occurred with the Novigrad bullshot, whereas the skybox at the same time of day and weather looks afwul in-game. Another example is pic related, which is easy to encounter in-game and looks horrible.

They aready had the engine version with better graphics running on PC, but had to change the engine due to consoles. There was an interview with the devs on some gaming site about it.
>>332403467
Which matters little since the game still looks better than most of the games released around the year 2015.
mfw the Hearts of Stone DLC was much better then the whole game. Hell better then most games games released recently, especially story-wise
>>332387245

>>332387245
Yes, thanks for reminding me to install you.
>>332403193
I care more about the final product not representing what was shown beforehand.
I care about atmosphere which was, for me personally, the most important part of TW1.
I care because sight is a dominant human sense.
I care because, graphics, environment design, and story (including characters) are the only things the game has going for it (which is a lot and I do think the game is good, goty for me since I only own a PC and there was nothing else better than TW3 on this particular platform in my opinion).

>>332403576
It goes to show they learned from making the main game, its the prime example of how post-launch content should be. Not to mention its price/quality compared to the diarrhea bethesda dlc is.

you forgot, game was totally and absolutely free for download.
You literally had Witcher 3_install.exe(21.4Gb) file on Pirate Bay(any fucking torrent hole) and you downloaded small patch on release day.
So, fact is that game was released next to freeware or donationware.
This is not good PR, this is madness but madness works when you polish your games for so long.

Brown swampy forests filled with one type of enemy: the game.
The cinematics/main story, as well as most of the quests were fine, but goddamn, I don't think there has ever been an RPG with worse environments (or rather, environment, since there is only one type of terrain in the entire game), OR less enemy types.
>>332405757
What i didn't understand, is why he really fulfilled Geralts wishes, if you chose not to get involved at the end.
If you wished to be swift at the wind, he gave you a saddle for your Horse (though i already have a saddle with better stats in my inventory).
Or Vodka-Bottle with unlimited supply of alcohol. And all other wishes.
I expected to be screwed over.
For example for "bottle that always full", he could give you the bottle that cannot be opened by anyone/anything & etc.
But the Gaunter O'Dimm played nice. :/
Completed the game and I literally enjoyed Arkham Knight more.
It was the more consistent game but it has TLOU levels of overblown hype, it plays the genre sickeningly safe. Not really the game you replay especially when the build variety is so limiting. I Guess the DLC will be good and i'm not really surprised as to why it's forgotten. There's not much to remember unless you love the fiction it's based on and any even moderate book reader with knowledge of the Witcher books will tell you how weak those mediocre books were outside of a handful of short stories.

The area with the hags and the poludnica (well-wraith) was actually okay, but they were a drop in the drowner-infested brownness. I wonder if Poland is really so dreary.

I didnt savescumTM to see what other choices bring, i usually dont feel intimidaed by vidya,no matter how good they are made, but I honestly had feels to just not play G.o.D. game, didnt want anything from him, just to get out of the contract.
Best part is, they made him just like any other bloke, almost generic face(with some interesting personality details) but there is a scene where Geralt insults him(or something, cant remember now) and he get angry(G.o.D) face just change for couple of seconds(it does not morph, just light was positioned from different angle) and you actually see how he is actually a bottomless pit of evil

Anyway, i just throw spies, pick up cards, and he picks them up with Scarecrows and he builds my army and kills himself by staying without cards.

I was the time when Geralt asked him what or who he really was.

>Implying anyone is implying Skyrim isn't extremely flawed
Despite being as deep as a puddle it's still a better game than Witcher and is an actual RPG. That's just how bland and boring Witcher is. Same depthless combat and the world is tiny and there's little incentive to explore beyond useless loot.
>>332409607
no it isn't and no you can't.
>>332409818
You're Geralt every time, your role is the same and your dialogue choices do not change the events in the story. By this logic Super Mario is an RPG because I'm playing the role of Mario. Witcher has bare-bones RPG elements, it's an action game first and foremost, and not a very good one.
>>332409960
>same depthless combat
W3's combat is still miles ahead of skyrim
>world is tiny
w3's world is around 3.5 times bigger than skyrims

>>332410076
>Choose the role my character plays in the story, and the character itself is whatever I want it to be

A game isn't an RPG because it has stats and abilities, it's an RPG because you can role-play with a malleable character. Witcher is a poor RPG.
>>332410167
>By this logic Super Mario is an RPG

Arkham Knight was objectively a better game than the Witcher 3, just because PCucks got shat on again doesn't make it worse. It's literally more of an RPG than Witcher 3 as well with upgrades that actually matter
>>332410372
Poor for you.
>>332410367
Sidequests that amount to the same boring fetch-this or kill-this objectives. The game only cares about its story, and that's the last thing a video GAME should be focusing on.

Come back when your RPG has more than one weapon type. and didn't take 5 months for the incompetent developers to patch in a storage system, let alone a house
>>332410432
Same shit in Witcher, once you have certain gear all the loot is useless.
Skyrim and Witcher offend in the same areas, but Skyrim is the better RPG.
>>332410469
NO it isnt you dont have choices in arkham knight. Upgrades do matter in witcher WTF are you talking about?
The story in knight is as generic as shit, you have a bad guy who's identity is downright obvious as hell/
>>332410492
Witcher is Skyrim if it had a voiced, static protagonist and you didn't get to do much actual role-playing. It's an action game with dialogue.
>>332410372
Witcher 3 has narrative choices, Skyrim doesn't. Therefore Witcher 3 is an better RPG.
>>332410626
No witcher is. Some of the quests in Witcher 3 has some twists on it, like the one in Wild at heart. Unlike skyrim in w/c the fetch quests pacing are all the same.
>>332410830
>NO it isnt you dont have choices in arkham knight.
Uncharted 4 is an RPG by that standard. Try again.
>Upgrades do matter in witcher WTF are you talking about?
Oh wow
>I can be a spellsword who uses the odd potion
>Or I can be a spellsword who uses the odd bomb
Your class is lore limited, the builds make zero difference.
>The story in knight is as generic as shit, you have a bad guy who's identity is downright obvious as hell/
And the Witcher 3s isn't? "NEED TO FIND MUH CHOSEN ONE MARY SUE AND SAVE DUH WORLD FROM LE CARTOONISH EVOL WILD HUNT".
At least Arkham Knights setting wasn't generic fantasy trash #10305 and at least the graphics weren't downgraded to shit
>>332410372
>A game isn't an RPG because it has stats and abilities
It is, though. That's the entire point of the genre. Witcher 3 makes for a poor RPG regardless, but you're dumb as bricks, too.
>>332410432
Come on, that's even more true of TW3, and I think Witcher is a better game
>>332410923

Skyrim does, you're lying and Uncharted 4 is an RPG by that definition.

>>332410923
Narrative choices don't make an RPG. Again, you're not role-playing just because Geralt has a couple near-identical dialogue options. You're still always Geralt with the same backstory and personality, you're not role-playing as him anymore than you are as Mario in Mario Bros.

The game's more dead than a 2011 RPG for a reason. Witcherfags just don't like to acknowledge why. The reality is that they enjoy the universe and likely liked the other mediocre as fuck installments, Witcher 1 and 2 (also with shit tier gameplay). They don't care about the game or gameplay, they care about the world.
Witcher 3 does nothing better than other games, literally nothing. Not even graphics, GTA V/Arkham Knight have superior visuals and are open world

I guess after a couple of contracts it felt like I was doing the Radiant AI quests from skyrim
All that being said though I like the game as a whole (just got back to novigrad after finding ciri)
When's the best time to do the DLC? Should I just do it now or wait until I beat the game?
Can we also bring up just how pretentious the writing is in general? I finally got to play Witcher 2 now that I got my new computer built and picked it up for 2.99 during Gog's insomnia sale, and so far they say "plough" as a euphemism for "fuck" more than they say "liquid" and "nanomachines" combined in all of MGS4.
It's le super adult not 4 kids writing that gets incredibly grating really fast, and all the character conversations so far are super generic "le so witty", "who can be snarkiest".
If this is the "dude good writing" and what the devs tried to market it as then it's pure pretension and it's no wonder that Witcher is the trendy fad-game right now.

Why would TW3 be high on that list now? The game has been out for 10 months, most people who played it finished it months ago.
So why do you think it should be at the top of the list? It has no multiplayer there is no reason for it to have many people playing it now.
You truly are fucking retarded, not to mention that 1 million copies were sold on GoG.

All of those games have voiced protagonists you do not create or have any control over, just like Witcher. I'm not understanding your point, none of those games allow you to create a character and role-play.

The only reason Skyrim has lost of players is because of mods.
It isn't because it is a good game, it is because autistic twats spend all day modding waifu cat girls and other shit. The elder scrolls games have always had a huge modding scene that has kept the number of players up.

and they say neo/v/ isn't real, it's damn worse than reddit
So why does everybody care about video game journalism now. If it were 2007 /v/ or around people wouldn't care about reviews regardless if they are bad or good. But neo /v/ of course loves calling every game unironically shit because some game got 8/10 and not 9.5/10 or crying that 10/10 is unfair because muh games can't be perfect (which is a retard's logic). Fucking judging games by GOTY picks just because a game you like got acclaimed while a few years back you would call the GOTY picks complete shit because those were given to games you hate.
>>332413446
>you are saying a game that has more people playing = quality
Well Skyrim has:
>Higher metacritic
>more sales
>more people playing it to this day
So yea, I would say those fit the mould of It being better. Comparing a single player RPGs player count to another single player RPGs player count is fine, bringing in MOBAs/MMOs vs single player RPGs is pure damage control on your part.

That's because Skyrim still uses shit from Oblivion, Morrowind and even earlier game and people are already familiar with tools and file structure. Bethesda didn't even have to release mod tools so players can make them.
>>332413654
What argument, the dude made a factually incorrect statement out of damage control. Witcher 3 objectively has mods and they didn't make a difference to the games longevity
>>332413454
Skyrim is incredibly shallow.
However, it maintains a solid user base because it's an RPG with lots of replay value. You can start a new game and make a new character with a new backstory and build and get a relatively different experience.
In Witcher, you're Geralt every time. There's no difference, your builds are extremely limited and the game focuses entirely on its narrative, so there's little replay value.
>>332408538
>bloodborne and DS are costantly compared to W3 as better

>>332413620
>Well Skyrim has:
>>Higher metacritic

ah so that makes it a better game.
not because skyrim is a ridiculous overhyped game played by every "lets player" and "youtuber" out there right after minecraft, or because before it was released every website wasn't filled with "nerds" and "gamergurls" and "normalfags" saying they were going to play the game "look at me i'm so nerdy i have no life becuz Skyrim!!! XD "
Id like to see the universe where in you make your own character and dont play as Geralt. Which would mean you could try weapons that arent simply a longsword. Could play as a mage or a guy with a sword and shield or something, or someone that specifically focuses on bows, the combat gets a hard time from people but its perfectly fine, the entire problem is that it never changes from start to finish in such a long game, you need various playstyles and ways of playing.
The game is fine, I have to say though, the game didnt hold my attention like other titles, it wore its welcome out long before it ended.
>>332413931
Less shallow than the Witcher 3
>>332413935
>implying this critique doesn't fit their combat as well
It doesn't based on the sheer weapon/build variety alone. Come back when Geralt becomes more than a one hand weapon wielding spellsword.
Witcher 3 is literally Assassin's Creed Brotherhood or so in terms of world, build variety, gameplay, and quests. The only difference is that W3 is part of a franchise and far floatier.

>>332414010
The actual gameplay is about the same but yeah there's much more you can do with your character builds. Skyrim is just the better RPG, Witcher is a narrative-driven action game with RPG elements.
>>332413750
It's mainly because the modding capabilities of Todd's dinosaur engine are gigantic while CDPR butchered console friendly engine is garbage.

Add to this that 99% of your "choices" doesn't affect the gameplay or your playthrough(which is a big step backward when you look at tw1/tw2).
It's always the "muh dialogue" which is why tw3 feel more like a cinematic experience.
>>332413620
>more sales
Well it has been out for 5 years... TW3 isn't even a year old yet. Skyrim has also been on sale many times over the last few years on Steam for $3.
>more people playing it to this day
Yes, because of modding. Once people have finished TW3 there is no reason to keep playing. Why do you expect a single player game with no online to have a load of people playing it a year after release?
You truly are fucking dumb, the amount of people playing now means nothing because the majority of people finished the game 6+ months ago.
The Steam playerbase doesn't account for the 1 million copies sold on GoG either so that list isn't even accurate.
Go end your life, this world is better off without dumb people like you in it.

Why is /v/ so buttblasted about TW3? It is the only game that generates that amount of rage here,it is unusual even on 4chan
>>332414150
The sad reality is that Skyrim is the better game. Witcher wowed people with its presentation and narrative, not its gameplay, and we all know what casuals look for first in games. Witcher offended in the same areas Skyrim did but didn't have actual role-playing and replay value to fall back on. It's also quite sad that I'm pointing to the simple fact that role-playing Is possible in an RPG. This is how far removed the games are from the genre.
>>332414424
I am denying ANY Bloodborne build variety, fag.
>>332414478
because /v/ is full of sonyponies that are anal devastated their blunderborn exclusive lost so hard.

>>332414583

>>332414478
It's Bloodborne that generates the rage. Witcher 3 hate comes from threads like these that attract the Witcher 3 defense force, there are only 3 odd people in this thread who care enough to hate it
>>332414478
TW3 is okay-ish. It got a lot of critical acclaim and is liked by normalfags too. It's also a proper PC release. The worst parts of the game would be unimaginative quests and combat.
Basically it means that people who like games that concentrate on combat and pure gameplay, like Japanese-style games etc from /v/ don't like the game. The good PC release and the fact that game is still okay-ish makes a lot of /v/ like the game too though. Normalfags love the game and gave it GOTY picks.
With games like Fallout 4 at least /v/ is mostly negative and can just shit at normalfags liking it and positive reviews of it. The Witcher 3 though is liked here too much so if try to shit on it defense forces appear and you got a shitpost battle.

Skyrim lets you actually role play and has more than a tiny handful of "builds" and you can create a different character every time. That alone gives it more replay value.

Save it from what? Being one of the top selling games of last year? Being one of the best games of last year? Winning the most GOTY awards out of any game last year?

>>332414478
Mediocre story driven games getting tons of accolades tend to upset people here.
>>332413148
Bullshit, Todd Howard's head is stuck firmly in Microsoft's asshole and they're still releasing the GECK. Likewise, Treyarch is getting fisted by Sony and they're still releasing more comprehensive mod tools than the MODkit for Black Ops 3 PC.
>>332414461
The only people that lose out here is the people who didnt play both, they were both good and worth playing.Also why does GotY only matter when its Witcher, remember when the Last of Us was GotY? Dragon Age? It didnt matter then but it matters now?
>>332414762
What kind of replay value does Skyrim have?
I mean, your choice of race doesn't really matter, as every npc will treat you the same; quests are not really failable; choosing rebels or regime also doesn't make that much difference in the long run.
And quests, combat, graphics, environment and everything else are too bland to make me want to replay the game.

Irrelevance
>>332415187
Actual role-play as a character you created, different builds even if they're still extremely shallow. The ability to role-play and make fresh characters keeps subsequent replays interesting enough. In Witcher, you're always Geralt making the same consequencless dialogue choices.
>>332415256
They are buttmand because Bloodborne didnt win GOTY.

It is no life retards who can't stand anything being popular or good so they make it their daily routine to shit on it is much as possible.
>>332415406
Except it is far from irrelevant, it is the best open world RPG to date. It won many awards and scored a perfect 10 in a lot of reviews. It also won more GOTY award than any other game of 2015,it is still winning awards to this day.
The Blood & Qinw expansion is out soon and that will be highly rated just like HoS was.
Stay the mad Little autist you are shitting on it all the time because of how popular and well liked it is. No matter how much you kick and scream it will always be popular and well liked, the only irrelevance is your pathetic existence.
No matter how much you shitpost about it, non of that will ever change, stay mad.

Yes it did. Now's the part where you change your original statement
>>332416083
But then I will have to stop shitposting.
>>332416083
This desu fuck the haters
>>332416226
No one likes the combat because what you described is sadly about all you can do with it.
>>332416234
no it didnt win a GOTY 2015.
>>332416369
Yes it did. See: >>332388038

>damage control
The truth is damage control?
You can shitpost as much as you want but it will never change how popular and well liked TW3 is.
>>332416445
>The truth is damage control?
The truth is that it's objectively superior to Skyrim
>popular
Less popular than every literal who game in pic related
>>332416319
What else would you like to do?
>>332416445
So popular and well liked that Skyrim dominates it and hasn't even had daily threads for months
>>332416548
meant to say "inferior"
>>332416559
Use a weapon beyond a one-handed sword, for starters.

Why are you so mad? Just leave this thread if it triggers you so much.
Skyrim >>>>> Witcher 3

No you pathetic no life autist, why does TW3's popularity make you so mad?
Why does something being popular and well liked make you hate it, how sad is your pathetic existence that you get this mad and shitpost about it this much?
>>332417015
Depth and functional diversity

>why does TW3's popularity make you so mad?
Why does people not liking it make you mad? Are you a literal shill?
I didn't played it for awhile bacuase the long loading times and the combat getting me killed at first.
Then I just launched it 4 days ago and started playing again. I'm having the most fun i've had in awhile with it.
The combat is different as in you have to accept Geralt moves like a tank. Need to control when to roll and when to dodge. Need to prepare for different enemies a bit. But it's satisfying to perfect parry someone and gore him in a swift multiplying damage.
But the STORY AND QUESTS ARE SO DAMN GOOD. I like Dark Souls a lot for what it is but it's nice to see a game so well written and compelling as this one. Bioware shit is saturday cartoon villainy every day. The world never feels cohesive as this one.
That's my take on TW3. As a whole product, it's incredible, and truly an achievement to do something this technically speaking good.

I don't care if you like it or not, i'm not the one going out of his way to shitpost and hate on it.
The only reason you hate it so much is because of how popular it is, you are like all the other sad little plebs on this board who shit on anything that is good for no reason other that because people like it.
>>332417582
>Bioware shit is saturday cartoon villainy every day.
Are you seriously implying that the "Wanna rape Ciri for muh time travel powers" Wild Hunt are anything but a cartoon villain?
This is why people shit on your game, there are zero threads that are pure discussion, even the /wtc/ general is nothing but shitposts. You shits always have to drag down other games which in turn trigger the fanbases of those games.
Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house, the Witcher 3 does nothing better than other games. Not one thing, not even visuals.
>>332410606
Trying this hard, lel. Tell me when Beth change engine and patch actuall mechanics to their games instead of waiting for modders fag.
>>332417696
>I don't care if you like it or not, i'm not the one going out of his way to shitpost and hate on it.
So why are you focusing so much of your time and energy on people who are shitting on the game? Move on with your life you butthurt pleb.
>The only reason you hate it so much is because of how popular it is
People have made compelling arguments against the game. It's lackluster generic story, the non existent gameplay depth and overall generic High Fantasy setting. There are a boatload of things to dislike, implying that people only dislike it due to its popularity is exactly why you're essentially a guaranteed shill.

Kick and scream more babbie.
TW3 is popular and well liked, no matter how much you shit on it this will never change.
When Blood & Wine comes out soon I hope you get mad as fuck over all the people enjoying the fuck out of it.

He had to shill the game but make his opinion look less bias by fabricating a non existent issue rather than focusing on legit issues. When he shat on long load times and praised the combat was when I stopped reading.
