I played this game for the story, apart from that it doesn't really offer much:
1. Combat 5/10
the combat is not smooth, its clunky and sometimes there is a delay when you press the attack bind
2. AI 2/10
Enemies are so dumb they get stuck in rocks and walls, sometimes the NPCs which you have to follow to go through the story get glitched and stuck, then they have to go back to the beginning of their path and restart the whole path (wtf), sometimes NPCs block doorways which is very frustrating and its hard to push them aside.
3. Graphics 7/10
This was a 10 at its own time but I'm reviewing the game in 2024, either way not bad at all its above average.
4. Story 10/10
The story was mostly copied from the books so not much credit to CDPR here.
5. Level Design 2/10
You are going to feel like you're playing a walking simulator at times, you cant walk on small obstacles you have to go around them, there is no jumping just climbing pre-programmed cliffs, and no transportation like a horse or fast travel, also A WITCHER THAT CANT SWIM? i mean i had to walk around a river to take the bridge instead of swimming.
anyways,
if you are interested in The Witcher franchise you'll have to play this game to get the full experience, its not all that bad as its not that long.
overall 5/10 gets a pass from me.
