    The combat itself isn't always that great, but the characters, story, exploration and world they created is amazing. Enjoy!

    Oh, and don't sleep on Gwent. Seems confusing and cumbersome at first, but once you get the hang of it and start getting better cards etc, you can lose so much time to it.

    Or be like me and completely ignore it because it's pants… literally hundreds of quests, things to do and people/places to see, and ye spend yer time playing a card game!

    Or be like me and get into it after ignoring it and all its quests for 100 hours and then desperately try to collect stuff you've probably already gone and cut yourself off from.

    That was me too. I played it a bit but never felt worth it. By mid-game, I felt the story and main missions were really dragging on, started a Gwent sidequest and started to understand it more. Spent ages then revisiting old vendors and characters to try find more people to play against or cards to buy/win until I hit a wall and had to progress the main story just to get more people to play Gwent against.

    Finally getting into this game on PS5.

    Like a lot of these narrative driven open world games, they are rubbish if you rush through them going from marker to marker; so I'm taking it slow and trying to savour the world. The Bloody Baron storyline was really quite well done.

    I've turned off most HUD elements (they turn on when Witcher sense is triggered), and it's a better game.

    I won't lie, it feels a lot like recent Assassin's Creed, with better story lines, quests and characters. Gameplay is very limited. It's a nice game to drop in/out of. Definitely does not have the atmosphere or that feeling of immersion and adventure that Skyrim does.

    Keep meaning to learn Gwent. Must watch some YouTube videos on this. Currently at the start of the Novigrad quests.
