So I just read this book on history of games called "Blood, Sweat and Pixels" and was fascinated by the chapter on The Witcher 3 and mostly how the team put in so much thought and care in every single side quest. And seems that there are a lot of moral decision to be made on each adventure. So I finally decided to give it a try. Got any advice for me?
First few hours can seem slow with the early map not being the most exciting, but if you make it through the huge world opens up and things start getting much more exciting.
When I played I printed out a side quest list to try to experience as much of the game a possible and checked off ones I completed. Side quests are amazing and better than the main quest as opposed to being the usual fetch quest with a weak or no story.
Good advice. It took me two or three attempts to finally get hooked by the game. But it was totally worth it.
Yeah, the first map area is small and kind of lifeless and I think like 3 hours long? Some don't give a game longer than that, but the entire game took like 300 hours for me to finish so it was very small portion of a very long dense game.
