I get SO FRUSTRATED when decisions are forced on me in a game :/
I absolutely love the witcher 3 and I do think it's is the best RPG game to come out since PCs were invented.
However, NOTHING makes me more frustrated than plot decisions being forced on me, particularly when I really don't want to go down that route...
example : Yen steals mask from druid, ok I didn't want to do it, but had no choice in the matter, not that big a deal (I have no idea what the thing is anyway)
But then when I meet the druid and he actually explains what the mask is, I really really don't want Yen to use it, I know she's wrong to have stolen it and there's nothing I can do about it but go on and be her accomplice ....
Then when she hands me the mask, so she can see through my eyes, I'm thinking, awesome, I can run up the hill and simply give it back to the druid.
Nope, can't interact with druid and I am left with no other choice but to follow the quest objectives.
Basically, like a mouse in a maze, like a wagon on a rail, the game no longer becomes a RPG at this point, I'm not role playing anymore, it's not even a game, I'm just watching what's going on like it were a movie. Interactive DVD is what it is.
End of rant xD
