I’m still compiling an analysis for the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which is essentially another way of me admitting that I really haven’t played through enough yet to compose any prudent evaluation on its already credited superiority over every game ever made, or any game that “will” be made, ever. Ever! I’ll have something definitive submitted for you to peruse soon, but until then it’s fair to assert that it has already garnered significant commendation from other less reputable publications. But is The Witcher 3 already 2015’s game of year? Should projects being developed now simply be dismissed or tossed into the nearest convenient waste receptacle, and their respective employees made redundant or a more permanent solution be conceived for there now nugatory profession? As there will never be a better game than this ever? Ever?! Well that maybe a little embellished, but its worth noting that The Witcher could potentially be gamers transitioning attachment between last and current generation consoles. So the most pertinent question is whether it is the best game on the current generation of consoles?
Vote here and let me know your thoughts on The Witcher 3. Cheers.
I agree that future titles shouldn’t be dismissed already, but The Witcher 3 could be one of the best titles that has been released on next gen consoles and so it will obviously set some sort of benchmark. Looking forward to your full review of it.
It’s certainly going to be a major contributer to the sales of new consoles if nothing else. Should (with some luck and fortified resilience) have my review published tomorrow.
I haven’t played Witcher 3 yet but I’ve heard nothing but great things. Its 200 hours for completion is a little daunting as I fear I may not have the time to really immerse myself, but when the time is right I shall! It may be the best next gen game as it is more accessible than say bloodborne which I absolutely adored and is arguably my favorite next gen game. But I understand bloodborne is not for everybody while the Witcher definitely caters to a broader audience and in this regards more people will experience its glory.
It certainly is crowd pleaser and deservedly so from what I’ve experienced. 200 hours certainly is a daunting prospect, but one I’ll certainly endeavour to utilise to my advantage. When I acquire the time that is!
Appreciate the comment.
I’ve only scratched the surface of the game so far but you can already see the amount of detail that’s gone into the world is staggering. And its nice to see there’s finally a developer who might be able to show Bethesda a thing or two. 🙂
I know right. Ive always felt that Bethesda recieve far more attention than their recent products deserve. Not that they’ve been especially bad, but certainly Lacking in textural consistency. Will be interesting to see how well The Elder Scrolls online does in comparison?
