You'll still be awake at half 1 having a gif conversation with @tommye.

Its going to take me months to finish Witcher 3.

Jesus bloody christ on a bike.

1.5 hours to get through the intro.
 

How "like Skyrim" is it, by the by? I've not played any of them, but I'm the type of person who'd go and (illegally) download all 3 and play through them, but I really dislike Skyrim.

My question is basically "Is the story way more linear than Skyrim"?

Not trying to be a bell, but CD Projekt Red are one of the only studios out there that actually give a damn about gamers, want to give you value for money and are driven by creative goals over financial ones. So I can't in good spirit endorse their game's piracy. I get that games are expensive -- too expensive -- but this if you buy one game this year, this deserves to be it :P

In short, it's 100x better than Skyrim. You can follow the story quite easily but you'll get lost with everything else you can do. However they streamline it nicely; side quests are actually inventive, fun and often humourous, not 'Fedex Quests' like most other WRPGs, as I heard someone brilliantly say. Combat is better than Skyrim's and the storytelling is on another level too.

Honestly depends what you don't like about Skyrim though. It being too unfocused? I think this has a clearer focus on the main goal and far more meat on its bones in that regard. Also from what the reviews have said, it seems to justify its open world better than most open world games (I'm looking at you, LA Noire/Mafia 2).

OH GOD LA NOIRE

Anyway, I eventually buy them, just very rarely on release really, because of the price. Plus I do it as a "test drive" and then when/if I like it and buy it - I'd know for what easy things to go from the start and stuff and make it slightly easier for myself.

You've basically summed up what I don't like about Skyrim there (plus the fighting is just poop), so I might give this a bash next week/month/we'll see! Also I knew I'd get a pretty nice and detailed response from you, like lol
