    The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt: Official Thread

    I'm just fearing I'll enjoy it less due to the high bar set by Witcher 3. I already have a copy so it's just a timing thing right now.

    The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt: Official Thread

    I've put this game down a couple times since release. First, to pause and wait for the expansion content so I didn't out level it.

    Server load problem

    Google Pixel 2 Leaks 15 New Features
