Would I like the Witcher 3 if I don't like the fantasy genre?

Its a good game to get lost in, if that makes sense. It reminds me of when i read the Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter for the first time. For a video game that is a huge achievement. If you enjoy a good story and are open to a unique world full of interesting characters, i think you will enjoy it for sure.

Probably not, but keep in mind that the game handling of fantasy is possibly the most grounded/realistic there is.
Because of the way these themes are treated i don’t think you’ll have much issues into buying whatever you’re seeing, or at least this was my experience. Felt almost like witnessing a Verhoeven take on the fantasy genre.

Plus the game (outside of mechanics, ironically) is a monumental masterpiece to the point side quests alone could be entire movies.. because of personal experiences, A Towerful of Mice “real” ending is the peak of my emotional investment in gaming. That shit killed me.

I would say go for it, just remember that the first area (White Orchard) is a tutorial area, so don't get mad if it's a bit lame. My favourite game ever though.
