Seriously the Witcher 3 ruined open world RPGs for me, if you gona dable in this genre from now on you better know how to carft interesting sidequests, and since Im sure itll take at least some years for other devs to catch up with CD Projekt Red on that department I dont hink I play these games filled with meaningless fetch quests and worlds full of pointless colectables anymore. Witcher 3 set a new standard and its hard to forget what that game did when you go to play another game on the smae/with a similar genre.

Maybe certain posters think I'm just trolling but I'm not saying this from without. Like I said even Fallout 4 discussions raise this issue . However its clear this RPG exists on a different plane of existence.
