The Witcher 3: Complete Edition Review: One of The Most Beautiful Open Worlds EVER (PS5)

Featured Video

The Witcher 3: Complete Edition is an incredible game that offers a deep and complex storyline, immersive world-building, and engaging gameplay. Despite not having played the first two games in the series, I was able to quickly become immersed in the world of The Witcher thanks to the game’s rich and surprisingly detailed storytelling.

The standout feature of the game for me is its story. The game follows the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a powerful and skilled witcher tasked with finding and protecting a young woman named Ciri, who is being hunted by a mysterious and ancient force. Along the way, Geralt must confront a vast number of challenges and make difficult decisions that will shape the course of the game’s story.

The story of The Witcher 3 is also similar to that of the popular Netflix show, with both featuring Geralt of Rivia and his quest to protect Ciri. However, the game offers a much deeper and more detailed exploration of the world and its characters, allowing players to truly become immersed in the story.

The world of The Witcher is vast and full of life, with a variety of landscapes and locations to explore. The game features a dynamic weather system and a day-night cycle, which adds to the sense of immersion and makes the world feel alive. The game also features a wide variety of creatures and characters, each with their own unique personalities and motivations.

One of the major improvements in the Complete Edition (one that I don’t really have the pleasure of enjoying) is the updated animations. The new animations are smooth, and fluid, and seem to add a level of realism to the game that was previously lacking. The character movements and facial expressions are awe-inspiring for a project of this scale and help to bring the game’s characters to life.

In addition to the main story, the game also features an immense amount of side quests and activities to engage in. These range from simple fetch quests to more complex and challenging tasks that can take multiple hours to complete. The side quests are well-written and often tie into the main storyline, providing additional insight into the world and its characters.

The game’s combat system is also engaging and satisfying. The combat is fast-paced and challenging, with a variety of weapons and abilities that you can use to take down your enemies. The game also features a robust crafting system, which allows you to create potions and other useful items that can help you in your journey.

Overall, The Witcher 3: Complete Edition is an incredible game that offers a rich and immersive world, engaging combat, and a deep and complex storyline. The updated animations add a new level of realism to the game, and the similarities to the Netflix show will be appreciated by fans of the series. Whether you are a fan of the series or not, this game is worth checking out.
