Editor’s Note:
Let’s be honest here, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt came out 2 months ago. Between that time and now, we had yet to release a review of how we felt of The Witcher Wild Hunt and why you should spend your hard earned money on it. It comes to question, how can you review a game that provides hundreds of hours of content and storyline a week before it comes out? It’s simple, you cannot. You can review the graphics, the musical score, the first impressions; this works for those who want to buy a game based on these opinions, but we wanted to bring you a true review after we played days of the game. In the future we will work to bring a first impression review to those who appreciate those, and work to provide a faster full review.
LevelSave.com was provided a review copy of The Witcher 3 from @Evolve_PR.
In which they probably were not too excited on our hiatus… sorry guys, hope you still <3 us. =(
Geralt of Rivia

We’ll just call him Geralt, with all due respect to his given title. Geralt is a Witcher, the protagonist of the game and whom you will play as in this fable. Yes, you are a bad ass… let’s just get that out of the way. Geralt has had a long journey as he has fought and slashed in The Witcher and died in The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings, not to mention his time at the Kaer Morhen stronghold (aka The Wolf School).
He is the only one of his kind, not only did he survive the trials of mutations that gave him superhuman abilities, he was the only one to survive a second run of trials, in which the side-effects gave him his distinctively dominant white hair and man fur (full set beard). Preceding these events and shortly after birth, he was thrown to training at the Kaer Morhen Stronghold by his mother[sic] where he trained and eventual became the profession he is today (er… hundreds of years ago), a Witcher. So if you have ever been sent to military or boarding school, shout out to you!
The Northern Realms
The Northern Realms, to lightly put it, is pretty damn big. It’s like riding horseback on two to three Los Santos maps (from GTAV) back to back north to south. Throughout the realms, you will find yourself in different interactive and sometimes deadly situations, no limited to water monsters attacking you and yellow plumes of gas suffocating/poisoning you.
Then there are cities/boarder crossings that require you to get a pass to cross…. but you can easily swim across the river without going through the trouble of finding passes; though they really aren’t that hard to find.
