What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Side quests are really good, whereas in Elder Scrolls there are only a few good ones in IV and V.
CDPR's claim-to-fame and a game that has a riveting story, excellent side quests, a fantastic soundtrack, and a strong cast of side characters that is largely only brought down by its gameplay.
The graphics and music are bliss, and I've only had one crash so far in my 31 hours.
Voice acting is all very good.
I've played this game all the way through twice now, once on Xbox as a teenager, then a second time in 2024 on my steam deck when I was deployed in the military (thus why my hours aren't reflected).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
