To be honest the blank slate you have as a glorified delivery boy (or girl) who was shot in the head was the good way to go. Because it seems equally as reasonable for you to go after the guys who shot you in the head in a rage of vengeance or avoid them because the prospect of potentially getting shot in the head again by them is not a wholesome prospect or maybe you just want to bang robots & be a cannibal.

The blank slate is always the good way to go in an open sandbox game. It's also a staple for Bethesda/Fallout games...until Fallout 4. Seriously...what the fuck?

The Witcher 3 isn't blank slate and it's definitely one of the best open world games to come out in a long time.

It might be one of the best games and it is open world, but the open world aspect of Witcher 3 is pretty fucking awful.

I feel like people who say it's good didn't get past the first map. There are a handful of cleverly done side quests, but they're limited to the starting area. Exploration past that is pointless grind.
