Gwent was very addicting once you understand it. I found myself fast traveling to every town trying to buy the cards and play every person I can. It was such a time waste from a storyline perspective, but just so much fun.

Great adds.
The graphics are dated, yes, and the combat will likely feel a bit clunky by today’s standards, however, it was groundbreaking when the game first released.
I thought Hearts of Stone was a brilliant concept, especially how
I agree that Blood and Wine was the superior DLC, though. I actually took a break from playing for a couple of days when I felt the story was nearing its end—I didn’t want to part with Geralt’s world just yet.
I also read that certain Gwent cards could be missed if you waited too long or triggered specific events. To avoid this, I’d save my progress whenever I entered a new town or village. That way, if I made a wrong decision that locked out a card, I could reload and check with all the NPCs to see if they were holding any new ones before advancing the story.
