What, are you serious? The Witcher series (3>>1>2>most other games in the genre) is one of the best in gaming. I am sure Witcher 3 will be in the hall of fame forever, such a masterpiece! Even the DLC/expansions are brilliant. If you like ARPG and good storytelling & character writing/dialogue, you will love The Witcher.
And don't call Geralt a lecherous albino warlock! It's not his fault women like him!

Witcher 3 is PCGamer number 1 game.
Have a look through the thread here on the forums on it. I've gushed enough on the game without filling this thread with it all
It's a great game if you like action rpgs. It's accused of being a bit light on the rpg side and I'd agree loosely with that, but by god it tells a great story throughout in a brilliantly realised open world.

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
It's not wroth it.

Seriously... story is awesome. Gameplay (ie-combat) is pants.
Been replying Deux Ex Mankind Divided and Mass Effect: Andromeda right now.
The Dues Ex series are the best cyberpunk PC games ever, full stop. I guess you could go back to Syndicate for something that comes close to capturing the same je ne sais quoi.
ME: A is a rough (ok, quite rough) entry in the series but the combat is satisfying and the story is at least passable.
I had been re-re-re-re-re playing Skyrim again as a Dagi-raht (modded) but I haven't fired that up all that recently.
That is what I thought as well originally..but you don't establish connection with him so much as with the others
I have to say this is the most grow up game series I've seen. Start with W3 goty ~ 200h pure pleasure and joy every second of those. Compared to it other big RPGs are like kids goodnight fairytales..So I'm replaying the excellent X COM 2 with the now newly released War of the Chosen expansion. I'm not a massive fan of this sort of game so it should say a lot that I consider it excellent. Genuinely tense moments playing this wondering whether the choices I made will end up with me winning a mission or getting my team wiped out.
Anyone else replaying this now with the new expansion?

Still haven't tried the expansion, but I loved XCOM and XCOM 2. I'll wait for my incoming 2 week vacation to give it a proper spin. XCom isn't a game to be played just for an hour or 2.

I was a huge fan of XCOM Enemy Unkown/Within, played that through a number of times. But the sequel failed to click - the storyline, the mechanics, and then the very first mission the very first melee strike of 86% was a miss. So I uninstalled it immediately as I was eligible for a refund (note: didn't go the XCOM forums to whine about the RNG and the 2K has just lost $XXX as I'm uninstalling).
I get the feeling that 2K is challenged to program a proper AI, as I see that from Civ VI reviews too.
Anyway, the game I was replaying a lot is all installments of the GTA series. Rockstar are genius, what a pity V never got a SP DLC.
Not played that at all. Might look into it though on this recommend.
I must be weird in that I don't most/any of these games you folks play.
I do still play FC and Crysis from time to time. Waiting for FC5 to hit early next year.
To be honest, my gaming time is so limited that I only play Elite, although I have a fair backlog. Haven't finished Day of the Tentacle yet, My Summer Car is also idling along with some other games I haven't even tried.
It's completely different from anything else mentioned in this thread. And it completely lacks weapons and solid gameplay but damn the atmosphere is absolutely mesmerising.
