One of the greatest games ever made. If there was one game I could erase from my memory and start again, it would be this, good to see the next gen update.

The combat is the weakest aspect of this game. It needs a revamp. The best part of the game were the cutscenes that featured ciri and yennefer.

One of my favorite PS4 games...but I don't know if I want to play through this massive game again. Maybe one day.
