I'm getting this weird vibe that some people believe every game with sword type combat has to somehow be akin to or exactly like a Souls game, I really hope that's not the case because that's kinda shitty tbh, it's not everyone's cuppa and neither will this game be.


Yeah, I find it very...let's say amusing. Souls are great games, but to be honest, there are dungeon-crawlers with better combat, like Severance: Blade of Darkness, which feels like something that actually influenced Souls. As for BB, I've tried it at friends, and tbh, I like it a lot less than Souls.

What lot of people here fail to realize is that Witcher 3 comes from very different background, it is more akin to Gothic. Unlike OP I find combat quite good, I'd prefer it to be even heavier, but I'm guessing they lightened it up a bit for mainstream gamers. As for other stuff, it's more or less different genre than Souls, so comparing the two is just silly.

IMO, for all the fans of WRPGs, specially Euro RPGs, this is a must have game. As for others, speacially those who seem to have very limited exposure to WRPGs - will you please stop comparing it to BB and Souls, only thing that they have in common to Witcher is they all fall under action-RPG genre.
