General Gaming
I very recently started playing it, and might I just say, I absolutely love it! Every feature of the game is extremely intriguing as well thought out. I enjoy the length immensely! The way the game implements every feature upon you is perfection, and everything seems absolutely necessary, while at the same time, capable of being completely ignored. The crafting system is flawless, uncomplicated and easy to comprehend. The way you can prepare for a contract is interesting and often the longest procedure, yet absolutely satisfying.
One thing that concerns me, not abou the game, but the people playing it.. I am seeing a lot of "The game is too long" posts, blogs and discussions all over the Internet. I can't comprehend how a game can be too long? I don't get it. A world that is so immersive, so structured and yet entirely unpredictable is apparently boring people? I feel so in tune with the game world when I play, I feel the deep bond of friendship between Geralt and his trust steed, Roach. I feel the desperation in the populace as they struggle to survive in the war ravaged land. I even felt fear, while making my way through a narrow, twisting trail with nothing but dense forestry, and hearing the blood curdling screams of someone within the darkness of that forest. Obliged to help, racing through the trees and finding nothing to kill, nobody to save.. Only the question of "who was screaming?". A lingering thought of was I too late? Or was it something else? Who in their right mind, could become tired of such adventures? A game that, yes, drops you into the thick of things pretty quickly, but delivers the most diverse game world I have ever experienced?
These thoughts escape me entirely.. I have never enjoyed a game so much, even its small quirks and acceptable, yet occasional, bugs can't deter me from this fantastic game. It has set the most incredible bench mark for RPGs, one that I feel, only Betheada can match. However, I fear that feedback from said people may deprive the RPG genre of games like this. If this happens, I will be most disappointed in my fellow gamers.
