I never played the Witcher but if Cyberpunk 2077 is anything to go by (same developer) I'm not surprised. At least for Cyberpunk the storytelling was not its strong part (neither were its bugs etc... but the visuals were, oh my.). I tried out Gamedec recently and that's an isometric RPG without fights. Which means reading and decisions. And of course great storytelling because without it the game would have basically nothing.

I wouldn’t judge Witcher 3 based on Cyberpunk 2077. Very different experiences, systems, UI, everything.
I quite enjoyed the story in Cyberpunk 2077. And there was quite a lot of lore to go with the story, so it actually felt like a lived-in world.
If you like Gamedec you'd love Disco Elysium, but you've probably already heard of it.
