Move Over, Skyrim · 11:55am Jun 4th, 2016
Well, at 114 hours, I completed the main story, and all but two or three side quests of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
There were good and bad things in the ending I received. Immediately afterwards, I learned that there are a total of 36 variables throughout the game that affect small and large portions of the ending.
After rolling the credits, I bought the expansion pass, then downloaded both expansions, Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine, the latter just releasing this week. I'm not going to go into those just yet; I've started New Game+, sending myself all the way back to the beginning with all the enemies and gear scaled to my Level 37 Geralt, and bumping the difficulty up to "Blood and Broken Bones" (4th hardest of 5 difficulties). Let's see if I can improve that ending at all. Nothing better to do until August 9th, expect maybe play GTA V on the Xbox One again, I've given up getting it to play smoothly on here.
And get better at Gwent. God I suck at that game.
And now, favorites!
Favorite Region: Velen, specifically the Crookback Bog wetlands
Favorite Sign: Quen
Favorite Combat Music: Song of the Sword Dancer
Favorite Ambient / Exploration Music: Fields of Ard Skellig
Just wait until you play the expansions, they're amazing, especially blood and wine.
I still like Skyrim more. Though the mods is the biggest reason why. I so fully admit that the Witcher 3 looks awesome on my ps4. My PC for Skyrim is... old, so can't use any of the fun ENB stuff to make it look sweet.
Surprised the videocard has not burned up yet. Need a new one someday, well new everything since I can barely play ARK: Survival Evolved on the lowest settings, and I do want to be able to make skyrim look better with all the mods I have.
