All good things must come to an end. The same can be said about CD Projekt Red's phenomenal hit "The Witcher." "Blood and Wine" is the last DLC for "The Witcher 3," and also for the series.

Geralt's journey has been a great experience for the fans of "The Witcher." Its compelling storyline and impressive cast of characters have gotten the approval of countless game critics, but most importantly, the hearts of gamers everywhere.

The final installment to "The Witcher" franchise provided a fitting end to Geralt of Rivia's story. It was hard to say goodbye to an excellent game, but the folks at CD Projekt ensured that game is ended on a high, albeit bittersweet note.

"This is the end," CD Projekt Red's co-founder Marcin Iwinski told Eurogamer. "Blood and Wine is [the] closing and there won't be any Witcher any time soon - if there ever will be one."

After Geralt's exploits, the celebrated hero gets to relax in the city of Toussaint, which feels like it has been brought to life straight out of a fairy tale book. He gets to retire happily in Covro Bianco, complete with his own vineyard and a faithful companion. Geralt is basically living every man's retirement dream.

Just as Geralt felt contentment with his newfound peace, fans have also found comfort that "The Witcher 3" has beautifully executed the end of the franchise. It did not feel empty, it was satisfying. Sad, but satisfying, nonetheless.

"The Witcher" has brought so many memories to the fans of the game, and for the first time ever for a AAA game, people aren't actually hankering for another sequel.

PC World commended the game studio for its bold move to end "The Witcher" series despite the universal accaim, whereas other studios will probably build sequels upon sequels and countless spin-offs to keep "The Witcher" brand going.

Speaking of spin-offs, CD Projekt Red is currently developing a card game patterned on "The Witcher" Gwent card game. Not exactly a move to "milk the franchise," but to give fans what they have actually asking for for so long.

We might be saying farewell to "The Witcher" franchise, but this is not the last time we will see Geralt of Rivia.

Fancy a game of Gwent?
