CP2077 will set a new standard like TW3 did. TW3 ruined all RPG games for me, save perhaps for Skyrim. I fear the day I'll finally download and play CP2077.
As for the topic of combat in TW3, it's insanely easy if you get the Gourmet perk and spam Quen (especially Alt Quen). Make it more challenging by following the game's pointers. A certain type of enemy is weak to this type of bomb? Use it. Don't destrain yourself to Quen + Water + Dodge/Roll just because it's easy. It's immersion/roleplay, I guess.
Things like using Samum when fighting fiends or Moon Dust when fighting Wraiths made the game super fun for me.
