Yip, very well done.

It's kind of weird you can't sleep with every single young woman you come across though. :hmm:

Yeah, unlike previous games besides paying 'hos you only seem to be able to sleep with women if you actually develop a relationship with them. Figures.  :P

Enjoying it immensely. It's kinda weird because gameplay-wise it doesn't break any kind of new ground, but definitely one of those games that's much more than the sum of its parts.

Caliga

It's just that every single piece of it is incredibly well done.

Combat - awesome
Story - awesome
Graphics - awesome
Voice Acting - awesome

That may actually be the game that gets me to pull the trigger and buy an Xbox One. I am so used to buying consoles (and games) years after everybody else that I feel weird in envisioning buying one of the newfangled Xboxes.

I hope the dialogue gets better than the opener and initial tutorial...

The Red Baron plotline in Velen is some of the best writing I've seen in a videogame.

Kinda feel that the game peaks a bit early, though. Velen is my favorite area by far. I have yet to play the DLCs though.

I'm sure they're excellent but I never got into the Witcher games.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Why The One & not a PS4?

Because backward compatibility and capacity to play with my sister (that's what she has).

Agree.  I've vacillated quite a bit between wanting to cut his throat and give him a hug.

I was shocked on my second PT when I returned to Velen and [spoiler] found him hanging from a tree in his own courtyard.[/spoiler]

While the world is rich and exceedingly well designed (Novigrad is - hands down - the best looking city of any computer games I've ever played), the replay value of W3 is limited I find, precisely because of Geralt.  If you can't craft your own character it puts a damper on the whole thing.  I did 2 PTs altogether, one where he dies and another where Ciri becomes empress. 

Now that they have developed all these assets I could see a game set in that world but without involving witchers, or only at the periphery.
