Summary
AlthoughThe Witcher 3: Wild Huntmay not be known for too many of its wholesome moments, a father and son have rectified this by taking part in a touching game of Gwent together, complete with a homemade table and custom-printed cards, that would even make the cold-hearted Gaunter O’Dimmmelt.Gwent is one of the most enjoyable mini-games inThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt,where players can spend hours challenging other characters to a round or two of the turn-based card game. When a game is so well-made that even its mini-games inspire devotion among its fanbase, it’s safe to assume that developer CD Projekt Red has done something right.
Given Gwent’s massive popularity withinThe Witchercommunity, there are high hopes that CDPR will continue to flesh the card game out, with some hoping to see a new approach to the mini-game when the next installment in the franchise eventually releases.

In a bid to keep the card game even more current than it already, Reddit user TheVespertineKind has shared in a post a host of truly wholesome images of him and his father taking part in a real-life round of Gwent.
