Episode 66: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Sep 10, 2016

Show notes

If Watch Out For Fireballs! can cover Dishonored, Check It Out Comrade! can cover The Witcher 3, god damn it. Actually, this very remarkable game carries a bit of indie spirit along with a successful take on the giant grocery list genre of RPG. One of the best games we've played this year, on the show or otherwise.
