What’s more, just when we thought thatCDPR’sRPG couldn’t get any better, it went on to release two fantastic expansions, which could have quite easily been standalone games withHearts of StoneandBlood and Wine. The latter of which is today’s topic of discussion.

“Blood and WineDLC is better than the base game imo,”saidRedditor Aggravating_Key_3831 kicking off the discussion on the thread. “I finished both the main game andHearts of StoneDLC not too long ago but was never really a fan of those stories and almost dropped the game until I got to theBlood and WineDLC and I’m so glad I stayed.”

They continued: “The writing for this was absolutely engrossing and its side quests were much more fun than the main game’s. Not to mention that the overall design of the Toussaint is so vibrant and colourful that it feels like it was ripped out of a fairy tale book. Personally, I’d go back toThe Witcher 3solely for this DLC because never in all my years of gaming have I seen any game bring out a DLC this big. It defines what an expansion should be.”

The Witcher 3: Wild Huntas well as its two expansions are available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
