What's so special about this game huh?

User Rating: 4.5 | The Witcher: Enhanced Edition PC
i tried to play this game 3 times but it never got me in it. Here are the causes:
-THE WORST THING IN THIS GAME is the combat system,you gotta focus on your tiny cursor,instead of the overall combat.(this can be very annoying at the hard encounters and is destroying the entertainment)
-the atmosphere is supposed to be dark and interesting,it is supposed to make me wanna explore. but i even didn't want to wander around.. the atmosphere is very static and pale colored.
-the characters(especially geralt) moves like they are made completely from wood..i mean,just look at how geralt acts in fight,there are no interesting and exciting point for me in it.
-compared to the other great rpg games,the sounds are below average and voices aren't even charismatic.. voices are not exciting at all.
-the quests are quite creative, but like i said before,the combat system and the boring dialogues don't even move me,not even a little bit.
-there's only one anti-charismatic character,geralt. pale like a zombie.we cannot make our own char. i understand that game developers tried to make a character who fits the dark atmosphere,but he's not even cool enough to get me in the mood.
-The inventory system really bad and incomprehensible,too complex. in an rpg game, i must clearly see what i have in my inventory.
-The gear we use and find is very limited,i know this game is not a hack'n slash,but the inventory and loot in this game are really boring.
The positive things in this game are nice graphics and some interesting quests. the scenario didn't move me at all.
In my opinion,in an rpg game there must be custom character creation,nice atmosphere,good story, nice enchantments for our characters and most important of all: a free flowing and exciting combat system.
i don't understand why this game is so popular..
