The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the third installment in The Witcher series by CD Projekt RED. The continuation of the previous, critically acclaimed games is similarly based on the fiction of Andrzej Sapkowski. Just like we have done before, in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt we control Geralt of Rivia. The story arc includes a few complex subplots like Geralt’s search for his lost love and Nilfgaard’s invasion on the kingdoms of the north. In the game we will also have to try and stop the Wild Hunt which haunts the Witcher both in the books and in the games. We will be able to follow the story through impressive cut scenes and well-directed sequences, always sure that our choices will have grave, unclear consequences.
We can even ignore some objectives and decide not to try to approach them. However, such attitude will also lead to repercussions. Overall, including the side quests, we can count on over a hundred hours of gameplay. The challenges will be very diverse: we will visit caves, villages, ruins, and many other places. We will be able to hunt monsters for money, rewards or simply for glory. Some quests will also take form of investigation: this diversity assures that no one will get bored with the game. In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, we will also be able to relax with various medieval mini games that add to the fantasy atmosphere. In The Witcher 3, we are free to make the story develop in the direction that we prefer. The choices that we make affect both the plot and, dynamically, our surroundings: lack of action on our part, for example, make the inhabitants of a village abandon it if we do nothing about repeating bandit attacks. Yet again, like in the previous installments, we can freely explore a huge, open world.
In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt the available area is actually forty times bigger than it was in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, which was quite an impressive game. Thanks to the new REDengine 3, we will never have to watch loading screens: the data in constantly loading somewhere in the background, but we never experience it. Getting from place to place is easy thanks to horse riding. If our horse is fast and healthy, crossing the whole area from one end to the other takes 30 to 40 minutes. We can also teleport to the places visited before. The combat system of the game has undergone serious improvements: while Geralt had 20 animations in The Witcher 2, now he will fight using 96 different moves! During fights, he will also be able to use elements of environment to his advantage.
