Questions on Witcher 3 Gameplay and Combat

As of the current moment, the 3rd game is on sale on steam with DLC for a low price. Many have recommended it to me, as I enjoy games such as Skyrim and RDR 1 and 2. So my questions are as follows.

Is it so open world I can forget about the main quest for ages, because there's so much good things to see and explore?

And concerning Combat and such, while Skyrim has all these cool weapons and potions and spells, I always just go healing and sword or shield and sword, simple. And RDR always ends up with me just using a shotgun on all my enemies, screw the stealth. Is the combat simple enough I can just throw myself blindly at an enemy (bosses are an exception) or settings for simpler combat? I am NOT good at games that require complex combat.

Better Bounty Hunting

I have been playing a campaign as a gunslinger, wirh a sheriff who is a bounty hunter/bodyguard for a noble. My noble friend has essentially declared war against a vampire, but that's not too important. I decided I would take the bounty hunter archetype, as it's a free Archtype campaign and I finally realized I never took one. But bounty hunter seems kinda meh? I am trying to figure out if there is something I'm missing, or an archetype that works better for hunting down and dealing extra damage to a chosen foe. (5TH LVL at the moment)

How to deal with a string/bundle of explosions?

In a long story short, I decided to throw a whole bag of bombs, one shoting a powerful vampire, collapsing a building, and accidently killing one of the other players (they are fine with it because it was cool).

But now my GM is looking at stuff, and saying there's no actual rules for combining a massive bundle of bombs. As I may want to pull this off again, I said I'd consult the Sub and see if yall knew how this operated. I've seen one post saying bombs of different types can't stack, but this was a heck load of moderate alchemical fire. Though closer inspection shows everyone at the table misunderstood how the bomb worked, as we made the vampire make a saving throw.

They're saying maybe a frozen lava could have worked better, all the same the question is: What can be used, can you stack bombs, and if not, is there anything that can let you stack bombs?

Creating a "Half Golem" PC

Back in DnD I had this character who was called the Iron Man, a large man who was half metal. Worked as a Quartermaster for a pirate crew who freed slaves, after helping them slaughter the slavers who owned him. After some time with Pf2e, my GM has talked about creating a pirate adventure, and I wanted to bring my character back. He was a size large human who has half golem.

However, Pathfinder 2e has so much more to offer. I think it may be possible to create something more than a cobbled together homebrew barbarian thing. I have been looking at Barbarian, and the kineticist, but I feel, with magic items included maybe, that there could be so much more to building this character right. I've heard of golems being far more expanded, more elemental options for a fire vibe, and cursed items galore. And the heritages are so expansive. So I ask for you assistance in creating this half golem giant, because there is simply so much that seems like it could work.

The keys things I want to keep in mind is: Big, durable, and taking advantage of an unnaturally strong body. I have also been considering something unarmed or a gauntlet for a giant metal fist, but if it's not possible, oh well. For magic items, up to LVL three, as that's the starting LVL for the campaign.

Also gods. There are so many gods, and my GM has been telling me that my characters should respect some gods. So I guess if there are some gods who like fighting against slavery, or revenge of utter destruction against those who have wrong you in immense ways, I'd like to know.

Thank you for your time.

Best gun for the Eternal Flame Mod.

I have acquired the Eternal Flame for Moze, with a fire based build and a Fire Elemental Unending Magnificent, to try and hit the ignite chance as much as possible. Is there a gun that works better, via sheer dps chance or ignite chance?

I need helping finding an app that allows me to create both Starfinder and Pathfinder 2e characters. Or one that functions similar as Pathbuilder 2e, but for Starfinder 2e
