The witcher 3 ps56/11/2023 ![]() ![]() Normally in RPG’s, it’s the main story that makes up the focal narrative point, with side quests just padding out the run time. Yet it’s not just the main stories than form the bulk of The Witcher’s gameplay and world building. The former involves dealings with sinister characters, the latter chucks vampires and pretty landscapes into proceedings. What starts off as a search and rescue mission soon becomes a much larger tale of saving the world and whatnot.Īnd that’s before the two expansions, Hearts of Stone and Blood & Wine come into play. Ciri has gifts, gifts that a sinister bunch known as The Wild Hunt are after. But what sounds so simple becomes far, far more complex as events unfold. Geralt is summoned by the Nilfgaardian Emperor to find his daughter, Geralt’s former ward, Ciri. Elves and human cohabitation has always been awkward, but more so now, for example. Tensions are high, as are relationships strained between varying species on the continents. There’s a war going on, between the empire of Nilfgaard and Redania. There is… I just don’t remember it all, nor would spoil it here. Suffice to say that by the third game in, a long and well-spun story is on display here. Those two hundred hours certainly weren’t learning the various histories and world building events, instead more exploring and hunting. You’ll have to forgive me when it comes to recapping the story, however. Gather your twin swords and potions, we’re going in. But let’s look into why it’s deserving of your time, either going in new or revisiting the world of Velen in this upgraded version. For me, this was my Skyrim, racking up two hundred hours of Geralt’s monster hunting and world saving shenanigans. Instead it welcomes then, taking them along for its staggeringly deep world and story it tells, even before the two expansions on the story. Whilst that might seem odd, it’s not a game that punishes those for missing out. Yes, even after all of this time.įor many, this was their first proper foray into the Witcher series. But that wouldn’t be fun nor a testament to just how good The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt is. ![]() It would be remiss to say, “Why not read a review of this from then?” or just point to all of its Game of the Year accolades. It may seem a bit strange to review a game that’s seven years old and released on last generation’s consoles. If it worth diving back into, or should the White Wolf be retired? The Finger Guns review: The Witcher 3 finally gets its long-awaited upgrade. ![]()
