So I just read this book on history of games called “Blood, Sweat and Pixels” and was fascinated by the chapter on The Witcher 3 and mostly how the team put in so much thought and care in every single side quest. And seems that there are a lot of moral decision to be made on each adventure. So I finally decided to give it a try. Got any advice for me?

    Context: I like immersion and getting the most out of a game’s systems.

    I see someone said the opposite, but I’d recommend playing the one difficulty above normal. If you don’t you’ll barely ever need to interact with some parts of the game like the alchemy system.

    Also the game lets you heavily customize the interface. I personally hate being led around by a dotted line/arrow, so if you feel the same know you can turn all of that off.

      To add to this.

      Don’t let yourself get overleveled for main quest line.

      I played on normal and am the kind of person that plays main quest lines when there’s nothing else left to do in current part of the map

      The result was the main quest line was very unsatisfying in terms of challenge due to being several levels too high
