stop ridding it bro

To me this will always be the best game ever. I have finished it 13 times now, and none of my playthroughs were the same, there are always possibilities for a twist here and there, especially when it comes to secondary quests that tie with the main quest. It's also such an appeasing game, you just travel the beautiful lands of either the continent or Skellige, with the masterful music score the game offers, encountering all sorts of characters and locations. The big point for me is definitely the World and characters. I don't know how to explain it precisely, but out of all the games I have played, I never got as attached to video game characters as I did for this game. Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 came close, but there is something so credible about the world, and I think most of it is because the studio that made it are really fans of the books, respecting it and adding their twists from time to time, and it works, you can feel that they cared about portraying the characters in a way that both reflects the books and adds a bit more to them. I remember when I got the game in 2015, at release, I was not that amazed with it, to the point that I didn't even finish it. Then when I gave it a second try in 2018, with a bit more maturity and thought, I fell in love with it, and it has been my number 1 game eversince, and I don't think it will ever change. I can point some aspects of it that are not that great, such as all the loot / crafting system, the horse controls ofc even if you get used to it, the short amount of NPC's face variety, and other, but none of that pull the game down for me because I just love it so much. Great video, I understand your point of view.

A couple of things I didn’t mention in the video ! I believe I played on a mix of of “Just the Story” and “Story and Sword” simply because I wanted to not stress too much. Of course this absolutely affected my combat thoughts and in hindsight I wish I had played a higher difficulty, particularly for boss fights.(I’ve played too many souls games this year though and was just tired of banging my head against walls lol). For the DLC I will do this for sure. In terms of comparing a ten year old game to modern mechanics, I definitely think that’s fair, just remember the whole Gotham Knights vs Arkham Knight discussions, and I don’t think I did that tooo much here really. And yess I mispronounced Dandelion, blame the audio book of the Last Wish I listened to lol thanks for the feedback so far!

I thought I was alone, of all the triple A games I've played Cyberpunk is the one game I'll always play even if I stop playing for months I've added hundreds mods replayed all missions I never seemed to get bored, its my therapy game I'm always happy whenever I'm playing Cyberpunk

I generally love this game, on par with cp2077 but Witcher 3 is more sentimental to me, it's the first Witcher game I played and one of the first really big and good open worlds since I didn't really play much games in the past, my mom was strict about it. I'm also Polish so I often get those nice surprise with our culture and mythology references which only reinforce my love for the game, and it's understandable that someone who's not Polish would miss out on that. That said, most of such references and also a lot of best content is in side quests. So, of course it depends on how you whish to play the game I'm not going to tell you how you're supposed to be enjoying your time, but you're missing out on a lot of best stuff by focusing on the main story over the side content. Regarding that feeling you had about narrative telling you to find Ciri as fast as possible and it just being unnatural to do the side content then. I have a feeling that it's not actually bad, it's mostly the game/map size warping the perspective (the show warps it even more). I just read the books (I'm towards the end of the last one) and it takes a lot of time for Geralt to move anywhere, he has to live of something, he encounters a lot of people and dilemmas, and even though he's in a hurry he has to do a lot of stuff to even survive. In the game you can cross the entire map pretty fast, in the show they don't even bother with the thing called distance, but in the books it takes months to move from one place to another while he's having visions of Ciri, her life is in danger, she's still pretty much a child at this point in the story, so he's in even more hurry then at the beginning of the game, but there is nothing he can do and he just has to do contracts to live of something. When I thought of it this way, suddenly, playing Gwent tournaments didn't bother me anymore ;). Lastly, regarding combat, alchemy and sign usage being a part that you can skip. I'm not trying here to have a go at you, but what difficulty did you play on? From my experience when I played my first playthrough on a medium/slightly harder difficulty (I don't remember well which one I played back then), I also didn't really bother with alchemy and stuff, but on the highest difficulty it makes much more sense and is almost mandatory. It's like you said, the basic combat is rather simple, the rest of combat system can be avoided, but it's mostly just so the casual players don't have to spend shit ton of time searching for ingredients, doing contracts to get special monster parts, etc. But if you're willing to spend some time on it, and play on higher difficulty to get the motivation of it being useful, you can do really nice prep work, builds, and use the mechanics to it's fullest. That's just the only drawback (or a plus, depends how you look at it), it's not necessary to do any of it if you want to have a chill experience and just do the main story. Also later on in Blood and Wine you have more equipment which helps you refine your builds and specialize more.

While my favorite game of all time is and always will be the Witcher 3 , i DO understand where you’re coming from, this game is almost 10 years old , even though I still love it , I can see a few things have aged in this game (graphics , combat and a few other things ) However for the time , it was truly something special

I think its a bit unfair to play a game like the Witcher 10 years after it came out and hold it to the standards of modern games but i hope you nevertheless liked the world.

Yea bro sorry ur not a real gamer if you don’t like the Witcher plus the DLC is fire

Cause it's a fantastic game. I haven't been addicted to a game like that since Skyrim. And I can't think of any higher compliment to give a game than that.

appreciate ur honesty, some interesting takes for sure

How did you mis pronounce Dandelion?? They say it in the game

This is just not a game for you.

My guess is you set way too high expectations for yourself

Techno vodou wizardy!

Witcher 3 WAS amazing, almost 10 years ago. I can't believe it's actually been that long. I love the witcher franchise, but I'm not a crazed fanatic, and I know this game has frustrating issues sometimes. If we talk about the games, then I, actually, liked Witcher 2: Assasin of kings a bit more. I've read all the books several times in two languages, but what made Witcher 3 amazing for me, is the final and actual conclusion of Geralt's story. The end of his (and my) journey. It's done. And thank the mother nature, that the ending wasn't anywhere near GoT finale. It was a heartwarming, wholesome ending. Have some feels, be thankfull, and move on.

It's definitely one of those games I don't... get. I have the reverse preference with the series to many of the fandom and like 1 the most. It's a deeply janky game but it has an almost imsim like mechanical design. Unlike in Witcher 3, preparations and research by the bonfire before heading out are critical to success. Leveling is much slower but every skill point gained through leveling and side questing feels like making a difference. By the end of the game, I can recall what a dozen of potions do and what most enemies are weak to. I tried to convert the knowledge into 3, only to realize that not only you can drink and apply oil in the middle of combat, they are more or less small buffs made inconsequential by the simplistic fighting mechanics. Also the dirt and grime in the series was not window dressing. Money was hard to come by in Witcher 1. You experience the poverty and destitute first hand like Geralt would in the book instead of being able to pack up the entire enemy camp and peddle them for cash. This game seriously would have been incredible if it just has a little bit more mechanical punch that pushes back on the players.

Im still watching but i just wanted to say that i got so bored from the tutorial i forced myself to keep going but then i got to the first town and im just bored... That was a few years ago

I do love the witcher 3, but it isn't the best in the triliogy.

Best game ever made , moved on

I know it's early, I'm still watching the video... Witcher 3's weakest bit was always it's main story. The side quests, the world, the little details along the way are what make this a legendary game. Cyberpunk has a much stronger main story with not as strong side content, until Phantom Liberty, so it does make sense to me that you found it underwhelming. That said, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine... Really recommend you play those

The thing with Witcher 3 is. It's noticeably a book adaptation and sequel. If you've read the novels, which unfortunately have a very open ending. You realize how perfectly Witcher 3 picks up many of the storylines and leads to cool conclusions. You also have an emotional connection to the characters from the books and know who Geralt is and how he would behave. From a gameplay point of view, Witcher 3 is a good series, but not really a good game. They've improved immensely with Cyberpunk, which is also fun to play and more motivating. And if you played it back then, the thing was just incredibly good. The first time a fantasy open world like that. Ubisoft didn't completely adopt the formula for nothing.

I agree with you 💯❤️ Witcher 3 is overrated the gameplay is just outdated

I waited more than 2 years before I decided to play the game, because I did not want to mar my experience by the initial broken state of the game. My patience paid off big time. It is a great game with fantastic stories. I want to experience more, much more of this world.

I gave this game a second shot. I remember skipping every bit of dialogue and just blasting through it like it was some cool mind numbing game. then the heist mission happened. in the very moment saburo strangled his father the game just clicked and I thought “holy shit”. Something about that moment changed everything for me. I don’t know exactly what it was but after that I took this game as slow as I possibly could. cyberpunk rules

This game just has that thing. I don’t know what it is. it’s like the Ryan gosling meme as a game. Even though I hardly relate to v at all, cyberpunk is literally me. this game just clicks man. I’ve taken the game as slow as I could and I still lay awake wishing I took it even slower.

Time for you to get Luke Ross VR mod...It's a different game. I'm playing with the quest 3 (2146x2146) resolution. On a -i7-10700k, 32GB ram, RTX 3070 FTW video card. The beefier the rig the higher the resolution u can push it and resolution is king in this MOD.

Fav game, and genre. We need more games like this. I love it. Played it like 5 times

My wife won’t let me buy the game.

I finished the game today and bro it didn’t feel long enough I wish there was more

outer wilds and cyberpunk are two of the best games of all time.

4 years later l'm still so freaking angry, so many talented people designed this wonderful world, it could've been one of those 'perfect' games, but the company's so damn greedy and fvked this up.

Oh man the theme of Phantom liberty i just love it…

As I tire of crafting and every other cliched game mechanic I find simple mods or NG+ a savior. In the case of CP2077, the ability to spawn crafting materials at will changed forever how I was made to play - digging around for scraps and being a slave to the recycling vendors.

Honestly bioware always does a fantastic job and this was the old guard of bioware in their last game and it really sucks that EA did not want to give this game the attention it deserved or the time it would take to fix it because God this game could have been amazing and Industry altering and that is my honest to God opinion. This game deserved so much better

on sale for 4 dollars on the Xbox store

For me, it's when Sons of the Forest winter hits.

Minecraft cmon man

Is there still matchmaking in this game, or are the servers completely off? I agree with you. It isnt going to blow you away but for a fairly short experience it is enjoyable

Easiest pro tip for you in two easy steps. Buy nuln oil, buy b&j brush cleaner/preserver. You will thank me, everyone will agree

doing it for yourself is the best way to share

Hey dude welcome to the hobby and welcome to credit card debt

Keep going and sharpen the new skills dude!

Looks great legand welcome to the hobby hope you enjoy the journey.

With the push to fit models, it’s best to cut the posts completely off and glue them. The gaps are caused by pneumatics. As the peg goes into the hole, it traps a small pocket of air that resists complete insertion. I’d look into a wet pallet and better brushes in the future to take your painting to the next level. Welcome to the hobby! You’re gonna have a blast!

In my experience with push-fits I find you still wanna glue em anyway, especially because they can, like you said, show off cracks and generally look kinda cringe. Also, when it comes to actually finishing a model, you don't have to paint every cubic inch, as long as you're happy with it you're gucci.

Watched the anime, brought me to tears. Created my first character earlier today. Sadly I’m leaving for Iraq very soon so I won’t get much time to play.

I bought the game and passed on ps5 Xbox and pc goated game

Oh wow, I remember seeing your earlier video where you said you were going to do some models, this was really cool to see! Great job on all the models, especially the finished Ultramarine you showed off! The Tech Marine is also awesome, I kinda want one now! I've built some Adeptus Mechanicus models and wow, they can be a challenge. There's so many details! I really want to drop a few tidbits you might find helpful; I'll try to keep it brief! If you can't get a push-fit kit to fit together snugly, try cutting down the peg and gluing the pieces together directly; the extra air between the peg and the hole can make the parts resist going together. Get a hobby knife if you can! It doesn't need to be expensive or great; in fact, I LIKE mine a bit dull! Use it to gently scrape at the places you clipped the model parts off the sprue and you'll get a much smoother finish on your dudes. It'll especially make those metal areas look sleek. You also mentioned wanting to get some black on the models before painting the undercoat, and that's a great idea. There are a variety of spray paints that work well on models, so you can put down a layer of black all over before you start! It makes it MUCH easier for the following coats of paint to stick to the plastic too; it's a game-changer. Just be aware that a black undercoat might make your first layer of paint over it look a bit dark. I personally like Games Workshop's black spray, but it IS a bit pricey; there are a bunch of recommendations online for other good brands. If you're in an area where you can't easily spray paint, at the very least look at getting a tiny bottle of brush-on primer. A thin layer to help your first coat cover the plastic makes it much easier, especially for bright colors. Less hassle, more fun! By the time I started the hobby, a lot of improvements had already been made to the painting side of the hobby. The magic of Nuln Oil and other shade paints made it a lot easier to get some great effects and shadows. A few years later, Contrast paints were released, and with them a whole new set of techniques for new and veteran painters alike! All the old guard are so happy to see new modelers and painters, and even more so for all the new tools that have made painting easier than ever! Welcome to the hobby!

May the Great Angel guide your path, Brother. Welcome to the hobby! For the Emperor, and Sanguinius!
