Most of the time you will play as Geralt, but sometimes you get to experience what Ciri went through escaping from the Wild Hunt. Gameplay-wise, it took me a few hours to get used to all the control and basic stuff you need to memorize (same as most longgames) but once you do you can see it behaves like most MMORPGs in the way you are given quests which you follow in your map and will lead to other quests, except you're on your own here, a lone wolf. Despite of the massive amount of potions and concoctions you brew, and the bestiary you will need if you don't want to spend ten minutes with a strong creep, his could be the only game that makes learning actually fun. Mechanically, TW3 is at first challenging, but once you memorize the basics you'll find doging, attacking, casting signs and throwing bombs as easy as riding a bike. The graphics show an improvement compared to previous games, and there isn't really anything I can say against them. It does not only fit the times you live in and mood of each moment (battles, riding, social events) but is a masterpiece per se. I feel like the music also deserves to be praised as much as the graphics or maybe even more. Some of your choices are not only difficult but also alter the story (there is a canon version, but you can make your own story).This might not be your game if what you seek is constant action, but if you want an organic storytelling, thrilling adventures, and rewarding exploration, hop on Roach and go find the thousands of monsters, treasures, peasants in need of help and bandits waiting out there. TW3 often presents you with really difficult moral dilemmas and backstories of strangers which will tug at your heartstrings as a player even though you barely brush over them, and Geralt remains impassible as usual. The main story line isgreat, but many side quests and optional missions are even better IMO.
The story, allegedly loyal to the original book series I haven't read, is what really amazed me. The Witcher 3 is without any doubt one of the best games I've ever played.
