Who played the witcher 3 and didn't want more Ciri gameplay? Wtf? The agile movement was so fun. Best parts of the game fight-wise.

These people didn't play Witcher 3. It's mostly right wing rage bait podcasts. They'll move on to a different side thing to be mad about in a few days.

Here, me. The Ciri parts were like someone shoved a linear action adventure into the open world RPG I wanted to play.

I wanted to progress the main story but every time it was a ciri part I was trying to rush through to get back to Geralt and go kill monsters and collect items lol

I agree, but I liked the pacing of it. Ciri's fights were pretty fun, unchallenging as they were. The fact that they were pretty sparse and short probably helped

[-] seang96@spgrn.com 4 points 1 day ago

They were the most challenging on the hardest difficulty at least with Geralt you can RPG.

Interesting. Death march was a bit too much for me in the beginning so I played most of the campaign in Blood and Broken Bones and the main missions were all pretty easy. I think I ultimately switched to death march because by the end I had optimized the fun out of the combat loop.

Yeah but you can't optimize when you play as her. One of the last times against the witches I remember having to replay it a couple times lol

[-] Amanduh@lemm.ee 11 points 1 day ago

I didn't like the ciri parts, I just wanted to play as Geralt tbh

Game was so boring, so slow, so clunky, so bleak, I never made it that far. Tried twice over the years. I want to like it. It seems great, but then actually playing it becomes a chore quickly.

Same, about 2-3 times over the years. Had to start over each time because I forgot everything. Just looking at the map gave me anxiety because it was just so much. I'm an OCD completionist, so I have to do everything, visit every place, collect everything. That game was just overwhelming. Everything else about it was great though.
