You might be in the minority, but not alone. I had same experience with Witcher 3 and AAAs in general. I find that games with good procedural gameplay and an inherently emerging story are the best fit for me. E.g. Kenshi, Dwarf Fortress come to mind. Kingdom Come is a counter-example, where it's fairly mainstream, but I found writing great and the world procedural (alive) enough for me to thoroughly immerse in. Can't wait for the sequel. I like a lot of multiplayer games too: sourcing randomness and intelligence from actual people works well.
