While the consequences don’t lead to game-changing sweeps, certain decisions have such large amounts of time between them that save-scumming won’t work. Most of the essential quests in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt that are listed fell into a few categories: ones that offered tough decisions (especially that I found interesting from many forum posts where people argued for or against a certain decision), tales of tragedy, and unique situations that Geralt had to either investigate or participate in.Ĭhoosing between the lesser evil is a theme shared by both the game and the book series it is based upon, and many decisions presented in The Witcher 3 are not about binary moral choices and more about choosing what outcome is slightly less than the other.

Some don’t have a hundred hours to spend but still want to check out this massive game and to help, I’ve created this handy guide of the essential quests that you should play in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, based on my recent second playthrough. The first act, split into three major sections across the regions of Velen, Novigrad, and Skellige, can take over a hundred hours to see every icon on the map, complete every quest, and craft tons of potions, bombs, decoctions, and oils. Surprising no one, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt remains an intimidating game more than three years after release.
