Huh. So I won't be playing the Witcher 4. Oh well, I kinda suspect that Witcher 3 was lightning in a bottle that they'll NEVER replicate.

I enjoyed Witcher 2 as well. I only played it once though. I've played witcher 3 several times now.

I honestly don't get the overwhelming praise for Witcher 3. It was, like, good overall but I had a lot of nits to pick with it that everyone seems to overlook.

I only played a few hours, don't really understand the hype. Maybe having read some of the books made me less curious?

I played the first 20h, of which there was a solid 4h where I was not in control of my character, and a lot of immersion breaking bad game design elements (Griffon quest was particularly jarring). So I dropped it and never understood the hype either. CP2077 was yet another reminder that CDPR game design is mid at best.
