"It kills me to say this because I love The Witcher franchise, but I'm close to a hard DNF already for this one. I get it was originally in Polish, but the translation reads as if it was done by an AI. The writing as a whole feels off, almost mechanical, and it clearly needed another thorough round of editing." — Jan 10, 2026 10:37AM
