W3 sucks

On my first play through I dropped the game after the hunting mission in chapter 1. About a year later I picked it up and finished it.

Witcher 3 is fantasy and basically draws you in on that aspect, whilst Red dead in the start appears to be a regular shooty shoot game

RDR2 is much harder to just pick up and play. It feels sluggish but rewards continuous playtime of 2+ hours

This is the third time you posted this thread today.
How much is CDPR paying you?

you are a hype nigger
writing in RDR2 is absolutely god awful, the engine is worse, "radiant ai" doesnt amount to jack shit, the game is smaller than W3 and its quality is fucking trash, W3 wasnt inspired by a game that came AFTER it you nigger

I hate both of them. Bite me. But i can answer your question. A lot of talk about how the story of rdr2 is great but it is actually shit. Side characters in The Witcher 3 get way better treatment than main ones in RDR2. Compare bloody baron to any of your literally gang members. Compare the cartoon villain that is Micah to Gaunter O'Dimm. The writing in TW3 is just far more clever and it makes it a worthy investment to go through the grueling experience that is the gameplay for some people. I am not one of those people though.

ONE GOOD TREAD its all im askin' for here user
ONE TREAD and ill be set for life

Witcher 3 tends to have more character interaction even when you’re not pursuing the main quest. Theirs always something to kill, explore or somebody interact with. RDR2 feels much more limited in that scope by nature of it not being an RPG. But if you dig the lonely moments of fucking off to the woods to do whatever side activities it really shines outside it’s story.

>w3 engaging the whole way
>rdr2 dropped after a few hours
It was the exact opposite for me, although i came back and finished w3. I dropped everything else in my backlog and put like 70 hours in rdr2

oh man I love picking up the frying pan for the woman and my horse not being able to swim in water in TW3!!! So much better than rockstar

All I see is two shit movie games with terrible gameplay.

That is much better than literally shoveling pig shit.
I hate rockstar fanboys.

any more nitpicks or just those 2?
i sure love how arthur controlls like a tank and his horse has to slooooooowly go from wherever it run off to and come to him instead of the game just cutting the shit

TW3 was inspired Rockstar in general dipshit and 2077 feels even more like Rockstar but without the quality. CDPR about to be another Ubisoft tier dev

Witcher 3 has 0 niggers. RDR2 is afraid to even say nigger against niggers.

TW3 is based while RDR2 is cringe.

oh hey, another retard who played 2077 before release

no, just looking at the low quality in every trailer

ah, delusional then

it will be reality after December 10th when quality comparison videos are made between GTAV/RDR2 to 2077

one is critically acclaimed, successful, top scoring, has hundreds of awards, was GOTY.

the other was forgotten.

shooting people was fun in RDR2
swinging your wiffle bat at things was a bore in TW3

exploring the wilderness was fun in RDR2, in TW3 it was just annoying and everything interesting was already spoiled by the map icons

yeah they mean fuckall

RDR2 is more a tech demo than an actual game

Although RDR2 is a total slog, you can't help but amazed by it's detail and how impressive it looks.
