See AllThe Witcher 3: The Best Quest Order (& Why)
I strongly recommend NOT following this list. If you do, you risk missing out on many side quests, such as the Cave of Dreams. Following this order will automatically fail some quests without warning.
On the positive side, I appreciated the additional backstory for some quests. Also, I was in a much higher level when I reached some of the important quests I changed for a death match in the middle of Act 2, as this order includes plenty of side quests that provide significant XP. (I had fun in this but be warned that can become a little boring if you don't) Mostly, I found it frustrating that there was no clear warning about quests being automatically missed or failed. If I had known, I would have double-checked beforehand.
For a better experience, consider consulting the Neoseeker order as well—it avoids these issues.
