Cultural Tip
In Spanish, titles of foreign works (movies, video games, books) are usually left in their original language and set in italics or quotation marks. When the title is a proper noun, you don't add an article before it, but you can still use a preceding article in the sentence (e.g., 'el juego'). Also, remember that 'gustar' always requires an indirect object pronoun; saying 'me gusta The Witcher 3' is correct, while '*yo gusto The Witcher 3' is a common mistake.
