combat is not even the worst part of the game.
they reduced the vast open world game to "follow the shiny stuff on the minimap". you could play witcher 3 in chinese and still understand everything. this is for over 90% of the content completely stupid as they point you out well enough with dialog, books, notes, etc. they just had to add a morrowind-like journal and make minimap tracking option, and the game would have been instantly ten times better.
the quest with "choices" are almost always irrelevant, and sometimes you actually get FAIL the quest if you choose option B. there are quest like that "repair shrines" quest where you are supposed to kill 4 unarmed students because they are breaking down some shrines you literally don't give a shit about. if you fuck out of there and let them live you literally fail the quest.
most of the "good guy" choices give you a lot of bonus exp. it's like kotor 2 all over again. no point in playing anything but good guy geralt.
nearly all the bad guys are so stereotypically bad, it's painful. the lowest grade villains like the kind you see in cartoons.
crafting and alchemy are very unsettisfying. i swear I remember even witcher 1 having better alchemy system.
even besides all of its shortcomings, witcher 3 felt great and is overall a good game, but it could have been a timeless masterpiece. oh well
What do you think would make the combat better?

It is nothing like Arkham combat.
