How did a game as shitty as Witcher 3 become so critically acclaimed and popular?
Memes.
>>341844471
Lots of fluff and exposition masking the shitty gameplay
Serviceable gameplay, generally good graphics especially for an open world game on consoles, a decent story with well written characters, many side quests that manage to feel unique with dialogue and choices, actual consequences for small/big decisions, fantastic music, and an alright conclusion to a trilogy for once. Also, if I remember correctly its biggest competition was Inquisition. If anything it did blow that out of the water.
DLC is also pretty good.
>>341844471
because based slavs doing better then AAA devs using toasters
It's a good game.
>>341844471
They did just about everything related to a PC release near flawlessly, even with the downgrade (support patches that actually fixed shit and added options for gameplay and menu features, modding, free DLC, paid DLC that's actually worth the money, even patching in a new control setting that fixed the weird floatyness) while the story itself was a blast to play through, even if the combat was merely okay (and even then, it's not really bad, just has a shitty leveling system that makes everything a breeze past a certain point in the game.)

Well that's a shitty reaction. There's like five posts in this thread talking about how the game is good if not great.

>>341845032
Like I said, no particular reason. It's more the straw that broke the camels back.
I'm fairly certain that more than 50% of posts are just bashing the game or publisher for whichever thread is talking about it. Getting pretty old. I'm getting pretty old.

t. literal retard
>>341844471
what exactly is so bad about it? great graphics? great writing? great voice acting? great quests? great exploration? great customization? great world building? great character progression? great music? the only thing not great about this game is the gameplay and even then it's not bad and they make up for it with the signs, bombs, oils and potions.
>>341844471
before witcher 3 i would never have believed that a game with such mediocre gameplay could be so enjoyable
Before blood and wine i could see loot stats before picking it but now i only see the name of the item and its pretty shit, no damage no weight etc.
Is it fixable?
>>341845464
that was a mod
>>341845159
Then you have some thin skin, especially surprising if you've been around /v/ for a while.
And of course like 50% or more posts bash games. Most of the time threads are either praising a game or bashing it. That's the entire basis of discussing a lot of games is talking about the good and bad. None of this is new. The only difference is that shitposting runs more rampant, but then avoid shitty threads.
Christ. Stop being such a drama queen.

I'm not crying over this. I care about as much as having to wait 5 minutes for someone to get out of the bathroom, it's irritating but I really don't give a fuck overall.
I'm really enjoying The Witcher 3 so far, bitches are hot too. I recommend (if on pc) to get the lingerie remove mod and realistic anatomy mods. You could go full nude mod but I think that break immersion imo.
why people on /v/ are so fuking hyperbole with everything?
WC 3 is not a perfect game but calling it shitty is just outright stupid
>>341847995
It's the same mentality on rating movies on metacritic. 0 - It's not that great, 10 - It's ok.
>>341847995
But Witcher 3 is shit. It's about on par with modern Bioware games.
>>341848247
>0 - It's not that great
Artistic direction and drought, Bioware games look like abominable godforsaken shit and while Souls looks appealing it isn't the best game to just walk through. The Witcher is literally the only open world fantasy game on PC and consoles to look very solid both graphically and artistically.
>>341848305
I don't think it's a 0. Maybe a 5, 6 at most. While it has nice graphics, its actual gameplay is barebones and clumsy, intended more as filler between story segments rather than being something mechanically solid of its own.
It's pretty much the Uncharted of RPGs. You listen to the story unfold with pretty graphics but sometimes you wish the game didn't even let you play because it feels like filler content that the devs just halfassed since they're obviously more interested in being storytellers.
>>341844471

>>341848389
Well said, in fact I agree. At times I almost feel the 'game' gets in the way of the story but I still feel it helps with immersion and gives it a total score of around 7 or 7.5 which is honestly quite good. The Story is very well done and the graphics are pretty as fuck.

Same deal with the Witcher 2. Everyone's too enthralled by the pretty graphics and foliage to see how ugly and broken the game play is. Which is fine, video games aren't meant to be played anymore, they're an "experience" now.
Stormfront loved it because it had no blacks or muslims (which to be fair is great in this pc cucked world we live in). Thus they viraled it on /v/ and /pol/

It's what I like to call "NGOTY" or Normie Game of the Year, it's a game that caters to the lowest common denominator, like it's predecessors (Skyrim, Inquisition, etc).
>>341847995
WC 3 came out 14 years ago.

How did a game as shitty as Gone Home or Dragon Age Inquisition become so critically acclaimed, to the point where they were even awarded GOTY?

This.
After Bioware imploded with ME3 and SWTOR the Biodrones were desperate and so they gravitated toward the first thing that was similar enough.
>>341852738
Hard not to be a nationalist when you live in a country that loves its sovereignty and beats Muslim shits in the streets.
I'm a Polish nationalist and I'm not even in Europe, or Polish for that matter. These people are great.

>>341853030
Because the competition was Fallout 4 and obscure indie games.
Although only a complete pleb would think that TW3 was one of the best games of 2015.
>>341853025
>I'm a contrarian hipster: the post
It's hard to take people seriously who would say that a weekend project indie game thrown together in a couple hours is better than something built with as much love, dedication, and time as TW3.
You're the cancer killing video games, but you know this.
>>341853172
Bethesda takes all GOTY awards regardless of merit regularly.
They were also against MGSV.
2015 had some really great games, like DiRT Rally and Total War Attila.
But you'd have to be a total retard to think TW3 wasn't the best game of 2015.
Stay mad :^)

>>341853532
Forgot to mention Jews.
>>341844471
I dont know, because I have never once seen any discussion on the game on /v/. It has entirely been mindless shitposting and totally unsubstantiated "GOTY!!!!"
Even Skyrim had more gameplay discussion
>>341853646
Except for that MGS is much more popular and much more well known and /mgg/ was filled with lament and sorrow over how bad V was for months after its release.
Typically any MGSV thread is along the lines of imagining the days before V came out and all we saw were trailers and MGS never gets shitposting on /v/. That's all how the fans honestly feel.
>>341853519
So Skyrim is better than both. Good to know, Polack fuck.
>>341844471
Because some autist who never played the game decides to make a thread about how he hates the game every single day for a entire year

The good mechanics are good, but it's just as rife with bad design decisions that make the good design decisions seem worthless
This is what the Witcher fans look like when left to their own. There is nothing to talk about in Witcher 3 besides the girls. The game is completely empty. Once you get past the novelty of graphics, it becomes an even worse Witcher 2. Hell even the girls looked better in Witcher 2.
>>341854057
i wouldn't go that far, but it was much better than bloodborne's atleast
>>341854541
Its sad not only that Kojima couldn't make a single level better than a demo he sold for 20 dollars, but that he used the only good part of the entire game to sell the piece of shit that is MGSV.
Even worse than all of this is you being in denial and defending such a turd.
>>341844718
If the gameplay was good TW3 would easily be one of the best games of all time. But since it's shit (I wouldn't say its serviceable... for normies of course it is) I hate the game so much it made me switch to easy so I could get through the boring combat as fast as possible.
It's like the made a bad crossover between Dark Souls and Arkham Asylum combat.
This is not Ass Creed
I repeat
This is not Ass Creed
It's GOTY 2015 made by our Polack friends CDPR

>>341854914
At least it makes sense in this context. the books explain that he has keen senses for shit like this because he's a witcher. it's better than just having Batman vision which can identify everyone's individual blood type and favorite color, or assassin vision because muh animus
>>341854309
>nobody talks about or played
That's funny because there's still daily Bloodborne discussion threads while are there are literally none for witchershit, which isn't a surprise since there's nothing to talk about, it's a bland, boring, empty open world casual ''''RPG'''' with shitty Ass Creed combat that tries to make up for it with le story but fails at that too.
How does it stack up to The Witcher 2? I thought TW2 was fantastic and loved everything about it aside from the combat, which wasn't godawful, but was a bit too much of a roll fest for me. I get enough fucking rolling in Souls.
TW3 just doesn't look as good to me by comparison, but I'm willing to give it a chance. I just don't know if it's worth it on PS4. I was going to play it on PC but I may just pull the trigger on the PS4 version.
>>341854839

People like, >>341855107 get paid to try and steal some of Witcher's glory and sneak Bloodborne into the discussion despite it being irrelevant and nobody talking about it, as seen by >>341855135
>>341855080
Yeah, I agree. I play BB for the nice combat and Witcher for the dank ass story. It's not like you've got to pick a side I mean they're both bretty gud.

TW3 has many stories in the game most of which are better than any individual game. The plot itself is not that amazing and the conclusion is about the same, but the journey, everything that happens along the way and every story you experience are pretty top notch. Which is exactly the way an RPG should be.
Is there a single fanbase that CuckDPR drones haven't pissed off? They're easily the new Nintendrones of /v/.

Go look for yourself. Nobody but a couple spergs are in Souls General.

then stop making these bait threads you faggots

>TW3 has many stories in the game most of which are better than any individual game
You must only play games with absolutely terrible writing then. TW3 writing is just plain average, and the story-telling is abysmal.
>He shills a Polack Ass Creed for free
I wonder how dead this board will be when that new CDPR shooter will come out and it will be shilled around the clock by the same CDPR interns.
>>341855546
>TW3 writing is just plain average, and the story-telling is abysmal.
yeah.. and lemme guess. bloodborne has phenomenal writing right?
>>341855446
>Witcher 3 is game of decade
This Polish shill cannot even write in proper English
>>341855546
true, skyrim is way better. and so is dark souls.
dialogue in those games is true poetry and wow, the quests. so unique and fun
>>341855416
What fanbase's pissed off by Witcher fans? I don't see any of them that hold any grudge towards the game or the fanbase.
The only pissed off's the beta cuck OP who's been making these threads 10 hours a day for 16 months.
>>341855546
Except you're the only one who says this. Get some taste pleb.
>>341855627
I haven't played Bloodborne.
>>341855628
ohh, it's a weeb. i'm out
>>341855546
enlighten '''''''''us''''''''' with a well-written game then
What's the point of these threads? I see them every day and in each thread it's always a bunch of people telling OP to fuck off.
>>341855416
only fanbase pissed off is Fromcucks they're very bitter and can't handle not winning, all the other fanbases agree witcher 3 was by far the best game of the year
>>341855680
I don't know From fans seem mad as fuck, not even they discuss their shirty games. Only 30 people in their own general on /vg/ and all of them can't stop being mad at Witcher bringing their shit into Witcher threads.
From should try making better games instead of marketing in Witcher threads.
>>341855742
>>341855770
bloodborne or bioshock infinite
Since so many Polacks are in here, might aswell ask:
Why are Polish women so infamous for being whores? Apparently you can buy one for a big mac and then have change over.
>>341855809
bloodsouls faggots are sad because their shitty game wasn't GOTY, so they try to find excuses for it and piss off witcher 3 fans
>>341855661
Those series actually have interesting lore, unlike The Witcher.
>>341855853
This is a video game board not a "cartoon replacement for being a kissless virgin in high school" board
>>341851137
>GoT Artstyle
Son, the Witcher actually modelled real life armour in the game instead of the ugly shit from game of thrones
>>341855283
Pretty much this. BB is all about combat, bosses, and spooky designs. The Witcher series is more about story, characters, and making decisions.
>>341855252
>>341855231
IDK what's up with these cucks, this kind of blatant shitposting seems rampant. I wish people wouldn't use good games to shitpost or push platform war bullshit; The Witcher games are RPGs (CPGs?), and Souls/borne are 3rd person action with character progression elements. There's really nothing going on in the way of dialog, choice, or role playing. The story in Souls/borne is part of the setting, just an element of the backdrop. The Witcher is an RPG telling a story through the player's choices.
IDK why I'm explaining this, everyone on /v/ should and probably does know this. It's ridiculous that we have to have these kinds of discussions.
I don't think I've ever seen this much blatant same fagging in one thread. Most of the shills are probably on vacation.
>>341855884
try again
>>341855893
holy shit you're retarded
>>341844471
Its not "shitty" just because you dont like it.
>>341855971
This whole post reeks Reddit.
>over a year later
>fromcucks still mad
>>341855928
t: never played witcher or read the books
your opinion doesn't mean anything
>>341844471
maybe because it isn't shit and maybe you're just a shitter and maybe you're just baiting
>>341855770
>wants to be spoonfed
>>341856017
>please give an award to bloodborne
everytime
>>341856017
It's amazing these people can't be happy From somehow manages to afford making mire games. They say that popularity for games is bad yet they are so endlessly jealous of Witcher success.
>>341856073
>reading books is necessary because the game lore is generic and bland as fuck
I am not buying this.
>>341856121
still waiting
>>341856202
how is it generic?
you haven't read the books, so how can you call it generic?
also, how is elder scrolls lore more "unique" than witcher?
>>341856202
The funny thing is, the books also are kinda shit, the games have better writing
I started it yesterday and I love it. I still have to get used to the new combat and crafting system but the gameplay seems good and every side quest so far has been really interesting. I see a lot of criticism against it on /v/ but I feel like a lot of these people are either contrarians or haven't played the previous games (I don't know why someone would play this one first but I can't imagine they'd feel the same attachment to the characters or involvement in the story)
>>341856232
You can just stay in here a bit more after your shilling hours are over. You might eventually find out.
>>341854995
I'm really not surprised. I love Bloodborne, but it's not the kind of game that gets mass appeal awards. Anybody can get through a Witcher game, it isn't about challenge. It's about role playing. But very few of the people are into this kind of shit are going to bother to beat Bloodborne. They'll put it down as soon as they get stuck. People don't like having to learn from their mistakes and get better.
Dark Souls only got the amount of attention it did because of memes. "Prepare to Die" and DaS being the hardest game evar just kind of carried into the spotlight. Great metacritic, great reviews, lasting appeal. DeS and BB didn't enjoy such memery because they never had the hardest game ever label slapped onto them.
And before anyone starts, I'm fully aware that anybody should be able to get through Bloodborne or any Souls game with just some patience. But they won't. If there's no bandwagon, they won't bother.

>skyrim will always be the superior game
What went wrong wticherbros?
>>341856328
Did you play all of them simultaneously? That's a really good way to do it. People new to the franchise get it good since they have no waiting period between the games.
>>341856309
Telling someone to read the books when talking about a videoame invalidates everything you said. Your opinion is literally worth nothing.
>>341856324
imo the books were very well written. only last 2 novels are 3/5 at most, but the rest are 4.5/5
>>341856479

Game of thrones is popular right now, so people seek things of a similar caliber

>Skyrim and Witcher 3 and even Splatoon will always be better than Dark Souls
What went wrong
>>341856495
These images man
So fucking stupid it makes me cringe
>>341856605
and just like GOT Witcher is good but nowhere near as great as people make it out to be.
>>341856479
>GTA: Vice CIty
This one is wrong.
Everything else is correct though.
