The aesthetic of Velen is one of the strongest points of this game from my limited experience of watching your LP. The art, the environment, the characters and the music really capture a sort of lingering and unsettling malevolence that really feels spooky even watching it.

The art of the game seems to be one of it's strongest points throughout. Most of the weapon and armor designs are realistic and nicely done, though there are a few exceptions where the fantasy armor and weapon designs take over but for the most part it looks quite good. Novigrad, even though it seems like the game drags through there also has a nice realistic and medieval feel to it, from the buildings to the NPCs clothes. Myself being a medieval history lover it's nice to see that detail.
Skellige seems underdeveloped compared to the other two settings unfortunately since it feels like there was room for some interesting gameplay and story there.

It definitely seems like the game has lost it's luster to you on the second playthrough, judging by the differences in your commentary between the two plays.

Where are you finding that the game is falling down after two runs?

Too many fake choices. The quality drop is too evident. Novigrad was dragging you down, and Skellige despite the cool environment offered very little in way of narrative.
There are way too many times your response meant nothing, changes nothing and was merely a lip service.
Not to mention the variety of items are beaten by crafted set armor / weapons.
I'm literally finding it hard to be excited by the random item drops.
Combat's too repetitive as well.
And then we meet this guy:
