It's bizarre, I love RPGs and this is one of the best reviewed games ever, but I struggle to get into it. I really want to like it, but advancing the story just seems like a chore to me, I can't be the only one?

That aside, great price and have some heat.

No they didn't! This is an incorrect assumption that's been around for years and still people get it wrong! As long as you haven't paid for the item you can ask the retailer to honour it but they don't have to. The retailer has to be protected from customers walking in, grabbing a £9.99 sticker (for example) and sticking it on a £50 item

If you've paid for the item, then the retailer can't demand more money from you. You've both entered into a binding contract on the price, both accepting the paid amount.

It amazes me how many people automatically think "well it's priced at that so you (the retailer) HAVE to sell it to me at that price"!

£30 now

Can't believe this deal is still being voted hot! Sounds like a misprice that was honoured by the store!

You are the second person to say that, but two people have also they had a similar experience to me, so that makes it 2-2. However, in context of the question it also means you're wrong :P

In all seriousness though, I had a look through the Steam reviews and it appears about 1 in 25 people feel like I do about it. I'm not a unique snowflake after all...

I can understand your view point as well.

maybe watch this youtube video with the story recap of the first 2 games.

By the way, why did they have to throw the ring into the volcano? Didn't they know that wearing it makes you invisible?

Good answer and I laughed at you lord of the rings comparison haha. no I never played any of them before. But omg every time I try to play it after I give up again and again because It's boring me it's like oh you still need to find dandelion for some reason, whoever he is, and to find him you need to find this other person first and also this person. last night I played for an hour to try again to get into it and I had to put on a theatre play to find a person, so I could ask the person if he could help me find dandelion. I nearly fell asleep.

On the receipt wouldn't it say Witcher GOTY or something similar? Either you've been served by a retarded Game employee and got away with it or you're having us on. Standard edition is £19.99 after the £20 discount in the sale.

I ordered it last week thruseday from grainger games for 21.99 pre-owned, it was 24.99 new. But checking now the prices have gone up to 29.99 new and 24.99 used. Btw new or used does not make a difference all DLC is on the disc

How did you get it for £22?

Did you actually play the witcher 1 and 2, or did you just start at 3? Because if you have to ask who dandelion is you started at 3 and didn't play any of the previous games, thats like saying reading the last book of lord of the ring and having no clue as what the hell is going on and it was really boring saying stuff like why did they need to through that ring into the volcano couldn't they have kept it. Though you could just read up on the previous game story there pretty good and the lead into this story. Btw the story is good, didn't like the ending as it seemed they wanted a happy ending which the book never had. Though I loved the game finished it completely without DLC now i have bought it from grainer games goty for 22 pounds so going to replay it completely now with all DLC.

I like how every side quest feels like a main story and not just a side quest haven't seen any other game do this than the witcher 3. If you compare to fallout 4 were every settlement goes like ohw we are beeng attack by raiders (there base is on the otherside of the game map (me go like WTF wouldn't they find a easier target closer to there base)), than you kill there raider they say thanks and that is the end of the quest feels very generic in the witcher 3 your would go looking for the raider, you would find the raider and find out there not that evil and they have sick people which need help and you help them out solve there problem, therefor stopping them attacking the settlement and get a good overall feeling. Most side quest even have cutscenes in the witcher 3. Which would suggest that they actually spend time developing good side quest most games just give crap side quest which add no value to the game just extend the play time. The witcher 3 side quest add value to the game.

Still £40 in Cambridge

And why am I supposed to care? I don't want to find him, I'm bored of looking for him. I would like a more interesting main quest line to be honest

Grandmaster? Maybe you can help me them. Who is dandelion? And why have I taken 20 hours walking around looking for him as a main quest line?

It's bizarre, I love RPGs and this is one of the best reviewed games ever, but I struggle to get into it. I really want to like it, but advancing the story just seems like a chore to me, I can't be the only one?

£39.99 at Guildford and Woking. Good score for you but unfortunately not for others. Didn't vote either way.

It's called Quen. Lots of love witcher 3 grandmaster (platinum earnt) :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, large stores have their own policies on mispricing. usually at managers discretion.

But but you said "they had to honor the price" :wink:

Yes yes technically, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz but most retailers will honour the price, no one said it was a lawbound action

I therefore dismount thee from your high-horse

nice price if you can get it

It amazes me how many people automatically think "well it's priced at that so you (the retailer) HAVE to sell it to me at that price"!

that's a ridiculous price. annoying that the expansion is the same by itself! I want to rebuy the game for the dlc, but my Save won't carry over to the GotY edition

I found putting a few points into the shield spell (I forget its exact name, I want to say Aard, but think that might be a different one) early on made combat mostly trivial. I didn't really find the combat all that much fun, which is a shame since you are spending a lot of time fighting. After that the crafting seemed a bit of a mess, but it was easy enough to find decent gear without making it yourself so I didn't delve too deeply into it. In the end I was completing a series of quests to see what happened, but not enjoying the gaming part :disappointed:

It's £25 at TGC, so I can only imagine it to drop to around £20 in the next week or so. Especially if GAME are doing an alleged promotion on it.

This time next month however, it definitely will be £20 and below.

Will check the Cambridge stores at lunch.

Indeed, so incorrectly labelled so they had to honour the price

Looks like you were charged for the standard version by mistake, so not really a deal :smiley:

Hey, thanks for that. I wasn't questioning the deal, I just wondered what the price adjustment was for. I'm a fair way from a Game store at the moment and didn't really fancy a wasted trip. Hopefully more stores will follow the pricing and we'll also see it available online. As I said originally, it's an awesome price and I'm slightly (massively) jealous :smile:

I was gonna trade in some games and I have some credit too. Cheers though

I'll re-upload the receipt.

Can anyone confirm. I was going to pay £40 for this today

Will this be national?

I need this

Fantastic price if true, I'm going to GAME Belfast over lunch and will report back if I am able to get it for this price

Sounds like OP just got lucky then, I knew it sounded too good to be true! :disappointed:

Just checked in Camberley, £39.99 sticker, also £39.99 when scanned

Great price... I know that I've stated that I won't buy anymore "old" games unless they are £15 or less, but this is worth a punt. Especially as I don't see it going much lower than this.

Shame the website hasn't been updated to reflect the promotion.

Awesome price, may I ask, what was the -£20.00 adjustment for on the receipt. It's showing £39.99 on the website as the instore price (as shown on the receipt before the adjustment).

Was it a manual adjustment or automatic when scanned? I'm wondering if it is indeed nationwide and worth a trip.

Went instore earlier today, only the wild hunt version is this price :disappointed:

Amazing price, still £39.99 on their website

Ploughin' hell. Bargain.
