I just started the Witcher 3 and mother of fucks it's brilliant. I finished the second one a few days ago. It was a great game, but this is like...just unbelievable. There are side quest characters that you spend five minutes with that other games could (and probably would have) built an entire game around. Like the hunter who helped me track down a griffin and shared his super-intense story with me because I took a moment to sympathize with him. He fell in love with a local noble's son, but they were found out and his lover ended up killing himself, causing the noble father to become a huge dick towards all of his subjects and cast out the hunter to live on his own in the forest. All of this could have been missed if not for my comment in passing. Jaysus. This game is going to consume my life.
The Feeance tells me I'd enjoy Witcher but I don't even know where I'd have the time to play it. This post just kinda sealed it for me that I will get to it eventually. That's awesome.
