Remove witcher good storyline, You got nothing. The gameplay especially combat is not good
It's like playing a story driven MMO. In the beginning for let's say 2 years the world is interesting, great characters and amazingly well paced plot. Regardless if the gameplay is good or not you keep playing to continue reading the story like a great TV series or a book. But then that interesting world starts to become forgotten and rewritten into a shallow husk of it's former self, the characters become flat or fake or the characters you knew have had their appearance and personality altered from how they look to how they sound and to how they act, the story is poorly paced and is inferior to the storywriting in the first 2 years compared to what is being written now. And thus when a game that is being played for it's story and characters has no story anymore and characters so warped from their original vision what happens? You stop playing the game, you stop watching the show and you put down the book.

It's really no different from loving the Restaurant you went to as a 10 year old and the food was amazing, the place was well staffed and the customer service was excellent and you had great experiences with the other people working and eating at the restaurant but now years later you come back and the food is bland, understaffed, customer service abysmal, and every experience is either bitter, constructed and unnatural or miserable. The restaurant has changed and you move on to something else.

“This isn't really a new or even worthwhile observation, but people online are way too obsessed with other people's lives and choices. Who gives a shit what anyone else is doing once they're content and not harming anyone. Let people be happy and mind your own business,” he concluded.

Remember when developers of a game were unknown and they usually just had a single person be the face of the product and they would praise their customers and shill endless positivity to sell the product.

Might be time to muzzle staff again because more often than not they do nothing but harm the brand in the eyes of potential customers.

Then again I do enjoy watching companies burn and the endless drama they bring 🤷‍♂️

If someone hates the industry and the costumer base so much, why is he working here.

He could love creating games and hate gamers that attack the art form.

I mean you have gamers doxing voice actors and sending death threats to people based on chin size and you are shocked that some working in the industry don't care for these types of gamers or? lol
 
I said the other day I should give my copy of Witcher 3 another chance..... Now I'm not so sure I will.
It took me awhile to get into it. Let us say, 2 years after it released. I dove in, balls deep up to the esophagus.
Wonderfully packed game. Great loop, great side quests, writing, music... it was an all-round great experience and once I realized I was at the end of all of the content...200+ hours in...I got depressed, lol.
I didn't end up finishing the final battle until after a month. Which, when I loaded TW3 up, I started walking around the world, then finally initiated the final battle.

I regret not getting into it sooner, but I think I would regret not going through it at all. I still have to go through it with the big, new update, on Death March!
I"ve begun a new playthrough a couple of months back, I think I will continue it soon.
