lack of customization in character creation

You play as an established character, not some generic person you create. There's different types of armor if you just want to play dress up.

lack of meaningful lore

You sure you're talking about the right game? This so far from true it makes me think you never played it.

a storyline that was VERY slow to start.

Again, I don't think you're talking about the right game. The graphics, lore, characters, and story are all top notch. It has me looking forward to the netflix series because there's so much material to explore.

Admittedly the combat was a bit clunky but it wasn't a huge problem. Everything else was really great though.

The framerate was pretty bad, at least around launch, especially in Novigrad. It wasn't the sort of game where the framerate bugged me too much though.

Some people criticized the story. I thought it was great, especially for an open world game. A game's storyline tends to suffer when moved to open world. Perhaps the transition was easier for the Witcher franchise since the series was always quasi-open world, but Metal Gear Solid 5, Dragon Age Inquisition, and Mass Effect Andromeda could learn a thing or two from Witcher.

It's a native 30 fps game on console, so the fact that you never experienced frame rate drop, especially during combat, is astounding to me.
