Well there is only one way to do something as epic as The Witcher 3, you go all in and do it the hard way.
I’m really enjoying the top difficulty and it’s certainly making me think about how I play. In the video I touch on some things but often it’s hard to get everything in properly in spoken word so below are some things that I have found myself and some general things I’ve noticed around the web too.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.

I decided to switch to Broken Bones and Blood (right below Death March). Ya know, because f*ck Death March. o_O
I hated death march so much at first but once I got the alternate sign mode for the shield and really studied monsters, inventory and tactical potion taking, I wouldn't change the difficulty ever.
It's extremely rewarding when you just 'get it right' in a battle and smash the enemy.
No tips at all in the video other than never roll lol. Which is essential against some enemies. Plus anybody who is actually playing at that difficulty should be able to tell the difference in attack damage & HP damage & to me at least they don't appear to match up in this video unless his character is super buffed which is impossible at that stage.
My problem with the game is I've probably put 8 hours into the game & I'm still only just a lvl 4. I havnt found any mission/side quests at all below lvl 6. Any enemies above lvl 6 are basically immune to any of your attacks. As soon as there's multiple enemies it doesn't matter how many times u dodge or roll. 1 of them from one side or another will catch you during it & wipe you out in 1 or 2 shots. I end up getting stuck in a zone that I can't go back but have no more health or items so end up having to reload a save going back as far as a previous day.
Im not sure why everyone keeps saying it's far easier than Witcher 2. It's not at all & the length of the loading screen is infuriating as hell!
