Absolutely amazing game, probably my favorite single player game of all time.

Pros:
-Incredibly addicting quest system, similar to MMOs.
-Fantastic characters that keep you engaged.
-Fluid and intuitive combat.
-Looks beautiful.
-SO much content and open world to explore; I'm almost 100 hours in and I am only about halfway through.
-The world feels very alive because of all the NPCs moving around and seeming like real humans (except for only having limited dialogue lines).

Cons:
-Very demanding to run at high levels of graphics, which is a major shining point of the game.
-Some quests are a little uninteresting and repetitive.
-HUGE timesink and somewhat expensive; this game is an investment of both time and money.

Overall, if you can run it, have the money for all the content, and don't mind wasting the rest of your life playing it, The Witcher 3 is an absolute masterpiece.
