Luke and Alex talk The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an action role-playing game developed and published by CD Projekt Red. The game takes place in a fictional fantasy world based on Slavic mythology. You control Geralt of Rivia, a monster slayer for hire known as a Witcher, and search for his adopted daughter Ciri who is on the run from the otherworldly Wild Hunt. Players battle the game's many dangers with weapons and magic, interact with non-player characters, and complete quests to acquire experience points and gold, which are used to increase Geralt's abilities and purchase equipment. The game's story has three possible endings, determined by the player's choices at key points in the narrative.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was released for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One in May 2015, with a Nintendo Switch version released in October 2019, and PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions titled The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition which was released in December 2022. The game received critical acclaim, with praise for its gameplay, narrative, world design, combat, and visuals, although it received minor criticism due to technical issues. It holds more than 200 game of the year awards and has been cited as one of the greatest video games ever made. As of publication of this podcast, the PC version of the game has a Metascore of 93 and a User Score of 9.1 on metacritic.com.
Alex played The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt on his PC and Steam Deck, he first played the game on his Nintendo Switch. Luke first played the game on his PS4, but this time around played on the Xbox Series X. Both hosts have beaten the base game. Alex has finished the Heats of Stone Expansion and has started Blood and Wine. Luke has dabbled in both DLCs but hasn't finished either. This was Luke's second time beating the base game. Alex didn't replay the base game for this episode, but rather took the opportunity to continue questing for all the Witcher gear and to tackle the game's DLC for the first time.
