Writing a Wi3dzmin review

Exploration, UI and combat is fine. Controls, crafting and itemization are terrible.

 

[yes plz]

I had fun exploring Velen and Novigrad but Skellige got old fast. Having to constantly sail around to get to new places by itself was repetitive but having to constantly deal with a swarm of sirens every few feet made me quickly loathe getting on a boat.

Sailing you can avoid by buying maps from merchants. And the Horn of whatever makes a short work of the sirens.

The maps only open up quick travel to the larger land masses, you still have to do a ton of sailing if you're discovering all the points of interest. As for the horn, it knocks them down but they get back up again pretty quickly and then proceed to chase and hound you until you finally kill them all. Besides, it's not even really about killing them, it's just the fact that you're forced to deal with the same group of enemies again and again and again and again and again and again in quick succession depending on how much sailing you're doing. I decided to take a day exploring all the islands and by the end of it I had dealt with at least 100 of the fuckers.

Why would you want to play with PoI on? CDProjekt shouldn't have put the markers in the game. It's just stupid.

 

[yes plz]

ffs

if you're going to explore all the islands, you're going to be doing a lot of sailing if you're not using the Points of Interest markers.

By the time you get to Skellige you should realize POIs are just padding. Personally I've done every single one of them on tne Velen/Novigrad map but have barely touched them on Skellige. And nothing of value was lost.

And the Horn is a blessing. If you use it right it can save you literally minutes of swinging your sword in the air.

 

[yes plz]

True. I definitely won't be making the mistake of fully exploring Skellige whenever I decided to replay it. Them being padding wouldn't be so bad if the itemization wasn't so shit. I'll never understand the thought process of, "Let's add a ton of loot to the game but make 99% of it absolute worthless shit!"
