This Game Is Much Better Than The Witcher 3
I have put like 500+ hours in The Witcher 3 and beat it twice and this game is just so much better.

I use 2 titan x pascals and I ain't even mad that the second card is sitting there doing nothing. That is how good this game is.

I have never played Witcher 3 but I can very easily see why people would disagree with your statement.

Technically there are aspects of the witcher that are better such as character models and sites like Novigrad. I've played W3 3 times so far, once with Ciri as a companion (looking for herself ....). However I have had far more fun modding Skyrim and writing my own story. And without first person an rpg just isn't as immersive.

Skyrim LE graphics were good. Look at the shine on the armour.

I love both games. The first thing that i will say is that these two games are completely different.

TW3 has a really great story and some great characters. Skyrim is more about the imagination of the player.

Other than that, Skyrim feels more epic and offers a ton of options gameplay wise. TW3 feels more realsitic and offers meaningful choice.

I'm glad that I have the opportunity to play both games.

Nope. Witcher 3 is superior in every way. Skyim is generic open world game that has perfect base for playing. I can't play Skyrim without at least 50+ mods.

For me witcher 3 crush Skyrim and is a so much better game, character, story, music ( skyrim music are great but just listen to does witcher 3 songs.. ) atmosphere, writing except one things

The exploration

The exploration on witcher 3 felt very weak in comparison, that what bethesda always did well, and for me it's the most important thing from elder scrolls (and fallout since they took the franchise) and what make players playing these game, the exploration, also the modding of course.

Things is, exploration is V E R Y important in an open world game.

also skyrim is more sandboxy then witcher which is more story driven game, you can do what you really want or be who you really want and that's make those game pretty different in the end

If only Witcher could have had the same exploraton level with dungeon and stuff, oh my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ god that would have been the best game ever.

Still, I really like Witcher 3 more.

but let's not forget that skyrim is now 6 years old and still holds up pretty well (like oblivion and morrowind, minus the combat for morrowind) Witcher 1 is terribly outdated in the mechanics and came years after morrowind, but well it wasn't the same budget

The fact that the combat in Skyrim is actually better than the combat in the Witcher says just so much about the Witcher.
The first playthrough of TW3 is great, because the game is very polished, and the quests are good. But after a while it feels very repetitive. Take Novigrad for example.. first impressions, beautiful city, so many npcs. After a few hours you realize you can't interact with anything and 99% of the npcs are just drones. You start to feel like you're in the Matrix. Lack of first person also kills immersion. And even with modding in it's very early stage, SSE graphics have matched TW3 which were already some of the best in the industry.

apples and oranges my friend, one is linear, 3rd person only,, the other is Skyrim.

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Every game has it's good bits, Pong is a bit overated, but maybe great if you need to learn hand eye co-ordination again. N64 colour pallet gives a simple and cheap 3D effect with apparent depth.

I respect your opinion, but now respect mine. This is a too farfetched statement.

I played TW3 once and beat it and all its DLC. Never felt like playing it again. I also am a rare one who likes TW2 most lol

I think I relate less to it too because the main chracter is not really mine and the fact I'm female in real life and playing a guy who sleeps with women is not what I like seeing all the time as well as the tons of female nudity. Other than that I love TW3 and its music but what makes Skyrim different is the character is YOU and you are telling your own story. I fell for those types of games back when I played Dragon Age and Mass Effect. What they lacked though was a way to truly make the game your own. TES goes that step further making those games number 1 on my list outdated graphics be damned lol

why do I have a feeling of "female radicalism" with your quote xD

Oh yeah I love Skyrim's graphics but there's just something about Oblivion that makes me go back and play it more sometimes...

Edit: Being female might be another reason I like it more. We have Martin and Lucien and the love story with the Gray Fox. In Skyrim Martin is replaced with Delphine and Astrid is the new Lucien lol

I definately agree that Lucien from the Dark Brotherhood and the Grey Fox. I think their characters were more interesting than Delphine and Astrid. I think one of the other things I loved about Oblivion was how... magical... the world looked and felt, for lack of a better term. The almost cartoon art style really appealed to me. Not to mention it made the horror of the Oblivion Realm so much more striking.

Then There's the Shivering Isles expansion... amazing content, probably one of the best expansions I've ever played.
