Been playing it for a week now and dear lord it's already shaping up to be one of my favorites of all time. The game is so damn good

Played fallout 4 for a couple of hours and turned it off to go back to the witcher

 

[Serrato]

A long time ago, CD Projekt Red were random polish devellopers. Then, they made a game called "The Witcher" from the book series of the same name. Few years later, they got from unknown to staple of WRPG style game.

Congratulations!

 

[sjay1994]

Deserved.

 

[Radec]

Well Deserved.

Also Fallout 4 getting snubbed. I love it.

 

[Tuck]

Shocking /s

Never played it, so I can't say whether or not I agree. But I have played Bloodborne, and its amazing, so its too bad it didn't win.

 

[DedValve]

I never played any witcher game before and 3 is on sale. Would I be lost in the story?

 

[elelunicy]

Ain't even the best game released on May 19.

 

[metalslimer]

I never played any witcher game before and 3 is on sale. Would I be lost in the story?

They provide adequate background along the way

 

[Memento]

I could see it by a mile

 

[Gunslinger]

Well deserved amazing game played it for 300+ hours.

 

[MaulerX]

Well deserved. Congrats to CDPR.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Congrats to CD Projekt Red! It's a great game.

 

[RK9039]

They beat Bethesda, Kojima and FromSoftware.

Plus the game still has a pretty big expansion coming out next year, I can't wait.

 

[marlowesghost]

Congrats. Awesome game.

 

[Ascenion]

Deserved but I disagree. Would've given it to Undertale or Bloodborne personally.

 

[bobawesome]

Oh well. At least Phantom Pain will take the GAF award.

Well Deserved.

Also Fallout 4 getting snubbed. I love it.

Fallout 4 deserves absolutely nothing. It's easily the most soulless thing I've played in recent memory.

 

[Quirah]

actually no surprise here.

can anyone post the full list for game awards?

 

[Hawk269]

Well deserved. A lot of good games nominated, but Witcher 3 really was worthy of winning it. Glad for the dev team.

 

[Salsa]

worth noting CDPR also won Developer of the Year

 

[BannedEpisode]

Better than Fallout winning. Thank goodness.

Would have personally preferred MGS5 or Bloodborne though.

 

[Bod]

Easily my GOTY . Enjoyed every 400 odd hrs have spent with this masterpiece.

Congrats CDPR

 

[Glass]

Damn straight.

 

[Trago]

The only right choice! CD Projekt RED are among the top tier developers in the industry. They are the guys to beat. Well done guys!

 

[Fancy Clown]

I never played any witcher game before and 3 is on sale. Would I be lost in the story?

It does a decent job of easing you in since they knew it would be a lot of people's first witcher game. I only played an hour or two of the first game and I understand everything in 3 pretty well. I'd look up a summary of 1 & 2 first tho.

 

[ninjablade]

Fuck yea, we'll deserved.

 

[Crono27]

Good. Only game that truly deserved it

 

[TheSlySoul]

Deserved but I disagree. Would've given it to Undertale or Bloodborne personally.

Agreed. But I cannot be too mad, I would have thrown a fit if MGSV got it. Witcher 3 is at least not trying to screw me over.

 

[Senhua]

Nice choice, very well deserved.
Congrats CDPR!
Cannot wait for Cyberpunk

Spoiler

in 2018

 

[Nekrono]

Called it when I beat it, MGSV made me doubt it for a little bit but Witcher 3 delivered on every front.

Well deserved CDPR, best RPG I have ever played.

 

[Wiz]

Probably need to play this game one day. I have it on PS4 and never touched it.

 

[KorrZ]

They made the only correct choice. I've played a lot of great games this year but Witcher 3 is truly special. GOAT RPG.

 

[Denton]

Fantastic, TW3 and CDP deserve every accolade they get for making my personal best game I have played in 20 years of gaming. Finally something overtook Fallout 2 in that spot.
Congratulations to Warsaw!

 

[RespectThySole]

Man I cannot fucking wait for the Blood and Wine expansion.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Not Bloodborne!?

brah....the combat of the witcher just aint good enough for me.

 

[WonkyPanda]

Completely deserved. Incredible game.

 

[Red Hood]

Well Deserved.

Also Fallout 4 getting snubbed. I love it.

I don't think you understand the context in which snubbed is supposed to be used.

 

[Skelter]

They earned that award. A lot of great contenders this year. Congrats CDPR. I've been so happy to see how far they've come since they started.

Man, I've been playing since the first game. It's been amazing watching CDPR grow with every release.

Not Bloodborne!?

brah....the combat of the witcher just aint good enough for me.

bruh...everything else in Bloodbourne just aint good enough for me.

 

[His Majesty]

Masterpiece.

 

[Lingitiz]

Not Bloodborne!?

brah....the combat of the witcher just aint good enough for me.

Luckily it isn't the only aspect of the game. The story, dialogue, quest design, all makes up for it. I like the combat though.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Not Bloodborne!?

brah....the combat of the witcher just aint good enough for me.

Good thing it has a lot more than just that.

 

[toastyToast]

Would have been my choice. Bloodborne felt a little bit light but the DLC moved it up for me. Although Hearts of Stone was pretty damn good too.

Good. Only game that truly deserved it

What an odd thing to say.

 

[johnnydrama]

Let's take a moment to appreciate that fact that a developer with merely three games under their belt went up against the giants of the industry (Kojima, Bethesda, From, Halo?), and came out on top. Such a talented team. My personal GOTY and GOTG. Very well deserved.

 

[Daingurse]

Good choice and well deserved for CDPR. My GOTY as well.

 

[Meaty]

Honestly, Witcher 3 put CDPR on the same level of naughty dog to me,

I bought a season pass after playing 2 hours of witcher 3, its just that good.
Anything they release is day 0 to me now.

 

[Heysoos]

Solid choice.

 

[LowParry]

Well deserved. Grats to CD!

 

[wild wild rice]

MGSV robbed

I felt robbed after grinding through 30-something hours of MGSV.

 

[scoobs]

The correct game won. Congrats to CD Projekt Red

 

[Terra_Ex]

Good, well deserved. Amazing game.

 

[Skelter]

Honestly, Witcher 3 put CDPR on the same level of naughty dog to me,

I bought a season pass after playing 2 hours of witcher 3, its just that good.
Anything they release is day 0 to me now.

They are working on a Cyberpunk RPG. I wish they'd give us some news on that already.


And Marcin just ran out of his chair. Reward was totally deserved.

80 hours in, just reached Skellige.

This will be my Christmas break game.

The expansion is going to add an entire new continent. I can't wait to see Touissant.
