Well, I could not disagree more.

Has there ever been better writing and execution of any given lore in a video game?  I don't think so.  I love Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and Fallout as much as anyone, but honestly....  They pale in scope and execution to the Witcher 3.

RE: The combat...  You mentioned being level 5 and failing vs. level 10 opponents.  There are many times this happen's, because your not supposed to be doing that yet.  Sounds like you haven't actually played 40 hours.  Have you reached Skellige?

RE: Dialogue, yeah they repeat some voices....  There are literally thousands of NPC's, that will all talk and engage with you, all fully voiced.  It was a gigantic scope and executed better than any Dev team has ever done.

RE:  Plot.  Did you play the Witcher 2?  Have you read the books?  If your picking it up cold, yeah it would be like starting Game of thrones in season 6.  You wont understand a lot of it, but they do a pretty good job of getting an inclusive narrative done, and the DLC stories are pretty epic.

To play the Witcher is too engross yourself in it.  I have played through it completely, 3 times, I feel there are 2 RPG's that could top it, Elder scrolls 6 and the Witcher 4.

Just my opinion though.

They were bandits, like duzens I have engaged before. There was nothing there indicating they were above my league.

All those peasants and small lords look the same, they talk the same and have miserable lives. I couldn´t tell if a NPC would give a big quest or a gigantic quest.

No, but I went after the wiki. Too many weird names and politics that are both cliche and boring.
