If you side with him he appears at Loc Muinne and lets you into the city.

Amazing music and atmosphere, I don't think Witcher 3 with all it's budget managed to match those two things and it showed it tried. The alchemy system was very well made and the combat tried to innovate, even if they didn't have the budget or experience to quite make it work. Also the storytelling is very enjoyable

Witcher 2 is a bigger pleb filter than 1, also the best game in the series.

Witcher 1 was well written fan fiction, Witcher 3 was like awful tumblr fan fiction, but Witcher 2 felt truly original with OC characters and plotlines and it's really better than any of the Sapkowski saga novels.

>tfw this is Ciri's only mention in the game

Attached: 1550555021966.jpg (1366x768, 124K)

Nah fuck that, 1 is above 3. It'd take a formal essay structure critical analysis to accurately put into words why 3's narrative failed. Sure, it wasn't a Mass Effect 3 failure, the narrative was still perfectly okay and passable, but it dropped so many fucking balls regarding the overarching narrative threads setup by the previous games, portrayal of various characters, structure/pacing and just overall writing.

2 is, by far, the best written of the 3. 1 isn't too far behind and then there's a pretty big gap before 3, although 3 is still decent.

Yeah, it is.
The combat is absolute garbage and frankly the game is even more shallow as an RPG than the other two games, but the atmosphere is fantastic. The music is second only to TW3, some of the locations are breathtakingly beautiful regardless of the game, the main story is leagues above the last one, and the quests themselves are easily best in the entire series.

I do replay it from time to time, and even though the gameplay really isn't good, it still feels well worth playing.

nope. It tried to match , emulate, copy Witcher 1 , couldn't.

This.

there are 2 official ones just like the base game.
the rest are fan made

It exceeded it in every way, though. There's only 1 thing Witcher 1 does better than 3. Just one. It's pretty trivial but also astounding they forgot it.
The one and only thing that Witcher 1 has over 3 is when it rains all the NPCs break the game by hiding under shelter and make it impossible to find them. They don't do anything like this in 3, which is a strange thing to forget given how excited they were about that mechanic in 1.

they're all fan made, CDPR just gave the best two voice acting

Unfortunately this. I cannot comprehend why the next two gave away that amazing dark atmosphere which is much more suitable for witcher.

>Thats where the combat system shines.
The combat system never shines in TW1. Please don't fuck with peoples feelings like that.

I love how a simple quest to find good dice players leads to a game with a ghost and eventually playing the King himself

Lakeside is not dark at all.
It's like the most sunny chipper place on earth.

Two has the best writing and generally the best main plot, but it has the weakest side-stories and it is littered with really bad or awkward design decisions. It also is just a bit lacking compared to the rest in terms of music and overal atmosphere.

The first one has the best quest structure, and the main plot, while inconsistent and clearly not able to decide whenever it wants to be a sequel or a reboot, has a lot to its merit. Plus the atmosphere may be just best of the entire series. Gameplay is the weakest though.

Third has the best presentation, music, art direction, and some of the best side-stories and moments of the entire series. Plus the gameplay is least offensive of the three. But the main story line itself is fucked beyond any possibility of unfucking. It also has very, very poor pacing compatred to the other two games.

It's an interesting series. Each title found something to improve, and something to fuck up. Each is consequentially worth playing, even though I would argue that TW2 for some reason just does not appeal me to do re-plays, even though I think TW1 is legit worse gameplay. I guess it's because all of it's appeal is in the main story, which you however know after just two playthroughs, and there is nothing else worth exploring in it.

mongGeralt >>> chadGeralt >>> daddyGeralt

Because in Witcher 1 the team was all polish that's why it feels the most authentic of the three, by Witcher 3 they were half foreigners.

I guess we really can't debate atmosphere or soundtrack , maybe that's pretty subjective. But Witcher 3 writing was really embarassingly awful. Where were the moments like this in it?

youtube.com/watch?v=JrePxATfvTk&t=14s

The Wild Hunt has like 10 lines in the entire game and it's something cliche like "get ready to die witcher". Witcher 1 is a lot more interesting and stays interesting troughout, Witcher 3 loses all steam by the time you get to Novigrad the writers are completely out of talent and ideas by then

they hide in all 3 games

In Witcher 3 traders and story NPC's don't hide, they stay in one place their entire NPC lives

How do I approach Witcher 2? I'm halfway into Chapter 1 and it is not very fun. The combat is boring, the UI is horrible and crafting system is confusing.

1 is the best by far, the other ones are consolized shit, especially Witcher 2

Attached: chapter 4.jpg (1920x1200, 582K)

I'll grant you that the Wild Hunt is cooler in W1 but the journey itself is way better in 3. The Possession questline, Red Baron, and Towerful of Mice are each individually better than the whole of TW1.

The best I could muster to compete is that orgy quest with the Vampires in TW1. That one is really good.

>its a good system when utilized fully.
It isn't.
There are mechanics surrounding the combat - preparation, alchemy, that are actually quite good. But the combat itself is shite. It was shite even for its time.
You can forgive it, as it is not the first RPG that decided to not focus on good combat and put its efforts elsewhere, but pretending that it is good is absurd. As a system, it is one of THE most brain-dead and shallow combat models ever deviced for an RPG.

It's smaller than 3 but just as tedious, admittedly for completely different reasons but still.

do witches feel young or just look young
reading the books when Geralt was taken to the wizards party pretty much everyone acted and dressed like a horny teenager

The worst thing about Witcher 3 is that retarded storyline when I have to quickly find Ciri yet I must spend literally weeks just fucking around and doing side-quests or simply exploring the world. And DLCs completely nailed the original arch-enemy because Eredin looks like a little babby compared to the smug motherfucked badass Gaunter O'Dimm. Seriously what were they thinking. G.O.D. could have singlehandedly rape Eredin so what kind of arch villain he is?

My thoughts exactly

The prepwork for combat is the good part, especially since you spend the entire game ramping up to get there.
The bad part is that its not a good combat system.

>double snake on the necklace
yeah guys w3 is totally the best game

No. But from my point of view it makes Eredin not threating at all. Maybe it's just me but HoS totally killed the main storyline for me. Witcher 3 is best played if I try not to think about Ciri nor Wild Hunt and just fuck around.

Witcher 2 unironically takes several playthroughs to enjoy for the reasons you mention, crafting and UI and skill tree being confusing.
It only gets better once you've mastered both this and understanding what's going on in the story, both of which take several playthroughs minimum.
Going full sign build in TW2 is amazingly fun but you can only really get there in the latter half of Act II and makes a certain fight at the end of Act II nigh impossible, without at least a few points in swordsmanship. But if you can do it, Act III becomes a ridiculous cakewalk of spamming igni and aard. I could take on shittons of fully armored Nilfgaardians without taking damage.

Well Witchers are constantly broke so it makes sense to do sideshit to earn money for your travels

So the Witcher series is great.
But how could it be improved? Personally I'd have liked it if they did a better job tying in each game to the previous entries. Having minor characters from the first game show up in the third, having major decisions carry on. I think because of the time between each game, each one was sort of stand-alone to appeal to a wider audience.
For example in 2 you always start of with Triss in bed even if you romanced Shani. Likewise in 3 it doesnt matter if you chose Iorveth or Roche, Iorveth still never appears.
If I suddenly became a millionaire I'd finance a revised 3 which includes cut content such as the Ioverth storyline, Vizima zone and Vincent Meis re-appearing. As is it kind of hurts to see all these cool characters just drop off the face of the earth.

Yeah, that was one of the issues of the pacing. But honestly, that bothered me less than the way they decided to portray White Frost, and just how INSANELY rushed and virtually nonsensical the whole final act was.
I remember long time before TW3's released, there was an alleged "leak" that actually predicted far, far better story than the one CDPR eventually came up with.

I also really did not like how they handled Radovid. I guess nobody did.
Ultimately, they really wanted to push it towards a "saving the world" scenario and that was the game's biggest fucking fault.

How should I complete my first playthrough then?

>that shriek
noice

I think that is what made Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine so amazing.
They had smaller-scaled but vastly deeper stories.

>how they handled Radovid
Fucking THIS. I also raged because there is no way how to kill that blind whore witch.

Nah, the multiple-games spanning choices and consequences are a fucking pointless gimmick. It really isn't worth sacrificing quality of the narrative over this.

I would like to see each gaming just... not making the mistakes it did. TW2 throwing pointless stealth segments, QTE's and gimmicky boss fights out the window and instead focusing on having the combat be more polished and alchemy not suck.
TW3 dropping the whole White Frost arch and instead focus on far more intimate storyline, where characters don't have to be sacrificed for ultimately pointless epic setpieces.

Gameplay and combat is pretty much never the strong point in any of them, it's always the characters and story. Less handholding especially in 3 would still have been nice, or rather the option to turn the handholding off and then actually having a chance to complete quests on your own but you don't actually get hints you can use.

They actually slow down their aging so biologically they're near the age they started drinking the mandrake potion, male wizards are known to age themselves with illusion to command respect and look wise while sorceress use illusions to fix their flaws if they have any (most do). So that basically means Yennefer is physically young but she's also actually a hunchback.

>choices and consequences are a fucking pointless gimmick
It is what defines the RPG genre. How much can I truly effect the world and characters around me?

this one makes me cum
youtube.com/watch?v=AGI3HDzUCXI

While Radovid's arc is not laid out enough to give substance for his insanity, I do think it was a nice touch that it was Radovid and not the Nazis who was the biggest asshole.

I just hated how they turn troubled, but complicated character into a one-dimensional bitch. In both TW1 and 2 he is an incredibly smart, scheming bastard where you genuinely don't know if he is evil or just very determined.

In TW3 he is lol mad and asshole. All of the build-up and they turn him into a bitch.

Hell, they even did some incredibly clever forshadowing, like the fact that his personal bodyguards in TW2 carrying Flaming Rose insignia. That could have been fucking explored, don't you think?

No. Choices and consequences carrying over multiple titles really don't define RPG genre. In fact, choices-and-consequences in general are not in any way necessary for an RPG genre. They are common, but definitely not a defining trait.

You do put it nicely, they did not even create the grounds to make his descent into madness be logical.

retard

TW1's soundtrack was absolutely amazing. I will still say that TW3's lives up to it. But that does not in any way diminish how good the first game was in this regard.

That's a good one
Witcher soundtracks are something I listen to over a lot of games.

To be honest the character writing was pretty hit or miss in TW3 in general, not just Radovid; Dijkstra, Fringilla, Sile, Margerita, Triss, Letho, Emhyr, Zoltan, Eredin and probably others I've forgotten, all were written at varying levels of bad (versus their previous game or book incarnation). However, you had Geralt, Yennefer, Dandelion, Philippa, Thaler etc, who were all at varying levels of good.

The Witcher games were average

Radovid had all the fucking right to hate those witch whores. I may not agree with him but after what he'd gone through it was perfectly understandable why he hated them so fucking much. He wasn't or at least he shouldn't have been portrayed as insane. That was a very shitty move from CDP:Red.

True. Though I did really fucking enjoy Letho's little comback. But the character writing was all over the place, especially since it would be so clearly compared to TW2, which had EASILY the best character writing of the entire series.

I think the biggest problem was that they decided to play everything a little too safe.

They could have have worked MIRACLES with the whole Triss may be a fucking traitor angle they hinted in TW2. They could have tied Alvin and Ciri's storylines together: Have Alvin be her child, giving her a perfect, and personality-driven motivation to return. They could have explored more about Radovid's relationship to Flamming Rose. They could have acknowledged Emhyr's Fake Ciri wife. They could have kept the wild hunt firmly in the background and White Frost still a mistery. They could have make the relationship between the Witches and the King so much more complex.

But instead, they decided to play it incredibly safe. End of the word plot, Triss is a cutsy waifu because we don't want to anger the Triss faggots, Radovid is no lol-evil because we need a very clear antagonist, Ciri is once again reduced to a pure MacGuffin, and let's completely ignore TW1 happened safe for lipservice to Thaler while we are at it.

CDPR started to realizing how big the project got, and started getting scared. Conservative. And that prevented TW3 from being trully great.

I still do like the game, I still think that as a "safe game" it is as good as it can get. But it's kinda sad to see it become THE SAFE GAME when it once had potential to be so much more.

So is the witcher 1 open world like 3?
Or is it just big open areas?

>In fact, choices-and-consequences in general are not in any way necessary for an RPG genre. They are common, but definitely not a defining trait.
this is your brain on modern RPGs

1 and 2 are excellent games with incredibly bad game design. backtracking and running around huge, empty maps is not fun, no matter who does it. W1 at least had atmosphere, whereas W2 just felt awful and looked too busy in most places, despite giving gravitas to the boss fights. It's hard to compare the first two to W3 because of the scale of W3 and it's far superior world design. Still, W1 is probably closer to their most idealized version of the witcher, W2 and W3 miss what made it good.

When does that even play?

W1 and W2 have large areas, although you don't start out in particularly huge areas in the first two games, they eventually open up somewhat. both W1 and W2 (even W3) drop you into a swamp at first, which is extremely tedious. minus those first parts of the games, they get better to various degrees.

>this is your brain on modern RPGs
Oh the fucking irony of someone saying this while actually thinking something Bioware basically introduced to the industry around 2010 is what "defines" RPG's.

No, kid. It's literally the opposite way around. I'm actually thinking RPG's. You are thinking the rebirth of the genre that very much happened in the late 2000's.

C&C has defined RPGs released before you were born, faggot

you ok there buddy

TW1 is hubs where there's a loading screen for buildings, sewers etc.

TW2 is hubs but with no loading screens iirc, (aside from the cursed battlefield in chapter 2)

Off-topic as fuck but does anyone have that collage pic of Witcher 3 being woke as hell?I can't find it, but it's for a good cause I swear.

It’s thd worst actually.

Typed like a true zoomer who doesn't even have the attention span for a short shitpost
Sad

While it is true that the first pen-and-papers predate my birth by over a decade, it was not C&C that defined them even in the slightest, child. In fact, early pen-and-paper RPG's actually had little or no narrative dimension what so ever.

What defines an RPG, you spastic little obnoxious brat, is abstraction of player characteristics into series of methematical models, and then defining player problem-solving options as limited and governed by those mathematical abstractions.

That is the actual core, defining quality of an RPG. The fact that you assume a role that is mathematically defined, and you have to adhere to restrictions and options specific to that role.

It turned out that RPG's lend themselves well to greater narrative models, and with that came the option to include greater degree of C&C, but that was never the defining trait, merely a bonus. And cross-title C&C really fucking did not exist until ME started piloting this subject, as far as I know.
Absolutely classic RPG's such as Fallout 1/2, Baldurs Gate 1/2 did not carry their choices over, and countless other classics, such as Icewind Dale, did not actually have much of any C&C. Not to mention earlier RPG's, such as Dungeon Master, that frankly did not have much of any narrativity to speak about.

So please, you fucking infant, don't fucking try to lecture me on what defines an RPG.

You can literaly just check the credit list for TW2 and see how many american, and how many polish names there are, you god damn mongoloid.

The actual exodus did not even happen after TW1, but after TW2. It was less than the third of the staff though, one of them being one of the lead developers, who later on founded the studio that developed Surge and that game before it that everyone forgot. HOWEVER, he did not take people with him, and his newly formed studio was germany based and staffed with germans.
As for CDPR, the staff leaving after TW2 was pretty significant, but they quickly filled those roles up with both Poles and people from all over the Europe. The studio had to almost tripple it's size anyway.

2 was pretty bad.
The graphics are in that uncanny valley. Everyone looks weird even more then 1. Combat is the worst of the series, it is tedious, unbalanced and uninteresting. The story is nice but having the 2nd act have 2 different forms is just a gimmick to get you to replay it. It also suffers from Geralt being reactive then proactive. He doesnt do much he just reacts to everything Letho/Sile does.

Haha absolutely not, it's borderline unplayable, the voices are awful and there is barely any plot. Nice nostalgia, I liked it at the time too but it just does NOT hold up at all.

Attached: The Witcher.2017-12-21.23.03.39.613.jpg (1920x1080, 1.79M)

I completely disagree. 2 has the best balance of fantasy art style and graphical fidelity (textures are even better than TW3). 2 has the best combat, when modded with fcr2. It's designed entirely around group management; items, signs, and swords are all required on higher difficulty (unlike TW3 where items are completely useless and you can just parry/riposte spam everyone like bamham). The second act is NOT a gimmick, it is the single greatest design decision in branching RPG story history. It's genuinely masterful how the second act is completely different. They deliver a true 3 act story in completely different, yet equally satisfying ways. Playing through it twice both ways is an absolute pleasure. As for Geralt, I don't really see the issue. Some bad shit happened to him and he's trying to figure out the right thing to do in response. I don't see how that's a bad thing at all.

In the swamp when the Scoia'tael and the order of the flaming rose about to have a skirmish. How will I know if went the neutral path? After I finished chapter2 it assumes that I sided with the flaming rose, is that normal?

Imagine being a peasant. Beside the mod he talked about wasn't made by just anyone.

You get to choose between knights/elves in Act 3, then between neutral/previous decision in Act 4.

>preparation, alchemy, that are actually quite good. But the combat itself is shite. It was shite even for its time
Agree with this. The feeling of gathering ingredients for the battle and preparing the potions you absolutely require to win some of the fights is really cool. The actual combat? Pretty fucking forgettable.

>The actual combat? Pretty fucking forgettable.
That is because it was actually incredibly uninvolved. There was virtually no actual problem-solving. No options for the player to test around. It occupied the player with a mindless rythm game because it honestly did not figure out what else to give the player to do during a battle.

>rating a game by its mods
They might be good, but they aren't part of the game so it's irrelevant.

the true contrarian opinion.

Just wait till you get to the swamp in the 2nd act mwhahahahahahahahaha

Just honest, also doesn't mean that 3 is bad. 2 however is indeed horrible

the swamp section alone makes it worse than 3

dude so what if I like geralt he reminds me of me

The swamp is truly the stuff of videogame nightmares.

Modding is a feature and supported by the devs. Again the mod in question wasn't made some litteral who.

The boring ass Novigrad part is the Swamp of TW3

>tfw cannot get into the Witcher

Ive tried multiple times but I have always hated LOTR, GOT, D&D elf dwarves shit

Shame

1 is by far the best game. 2 has cool political shit and roche/yorveth contrast. 3 is just boring, I just can't stand the open world, serves no purpose besides to statpad the game with boring bullshit in between interactions with characters

Witcher 2 gets shit on a lot, but even it had the best "villain", the whole scene where you just talk to Letho and he reveals it all to you and you suddenly don't feel like killing him was kino youtube.com/watch?v=KuY4H1Vw7mo

Finished 1 but couldn't play 2 and 3 for more than 2 hours. Something about the gameplay/combat seems off

>you suddenly don't feel like killing him
Bullshit. I still murked the bastard. He killed foltest and still caused all my problems. Just because he was promised shot by Emhyr doesnt excuse that. If I forgive him shouldnt I forgive all those guards and soldiers I killed? They were just people promised shit by higher authorities as well.
He also shouldnt be allowed to get away with shit just for being a fellow witcher. If anything the fact there are barely any of us means I shouldnt allow us to be repped as psychotic assassins.

Witcher 1 had the best alchemy system and alot of depth to its combat. I actually had to read what monsters we weak too and exploit it. Shame that was mostly gone in 2 and 3.

I remember one of the sorceress characters actually had half her face blown off in the past but used illusion magic to cover it up and look normal. I think it was Phillipa or some other cunt.

Also Alps had great asses in 1
Made me fap once before I saw their faces up close. Still no regrets

It was that sorceress who loved Vilgefortz, she died at Thanedd I think, or shortly after it.

>Bullshit. I still murked the bastard.
this lmao
slaughtered the fucker without thinking twice.

Killing him changes nothing
Emhyr'd never actually keep that promise and for all we know, Letho knows this too deep down since he isn't an unga bunga but when faced with the option of attempting to assassinate the kings of the North or get executed for telling Emhyr no way fag he went with the option that didn't result in his immediate death

wow you sure got worked up over it

fpbp

>how to spot memershitters who can't even be arsed playing the game

the swamp shit is way overplayed as an excuse to shit on 1 at this point, either you get past ch.1 or you don't. The entirety of 2 is the worst witcher you can ever get

Not really, no. What makes you think that? Or care, for that matter?

But Chapter 1 is outside Vizima. 2 and 3 have you go between the swamp and Vizima. And Chapter 5 has you in another swamp.

2 has the best writing, story and actually has choices that matter.

it has its slow moments (when you run about to find a leaf or a specific brand of ale that useless hobo loves so much) but overall very good w/ gorgeous soundtrack and rich world - i don't know why anyone would shit on it

it's basically an optional patch made by CDPR

>Bullshit. I still murked the bastard
dumb
>He killed foltest and still caused all my problems. Just because he was promised shot by Emhyr doesnt excuse that.
Geralt does shit because Emhyr tells him to do stuff all the time. Not to mention, Geralt doesnt give a shit about revenge unless its to defend his friends, and Letho is literally his friend.
>If I forgive him shouldnt I forgive all those guards and soldiers I killed? They were just people promised shit by higher authorities as well.
Geralt isn't going to sit there and not defend himself because he doesn't want to kill. Geralt doesnt kill anyone if he can avoid, aside from the rare times like in Blavikin.
>He also shouldnt be allowed to get away with shit just for being a fellow witcher.
He isn't getting away with shit, just because geralt gets over it doesn't mean Temeria does. Doesn't mean Nilfgard isn't looking for him.
>If anything the fact there are barely any of us means I shouldnt allow us to be repped as psychotic assassins
Witchers already ARE repped as psycho killers. Geralt is one of them. Who the fuck is Geralt to condemn Letho and the Cat School witcher in TW3 for doing similar shit to what he, himself, has done.

I bet you killed Sile as well, despite Yennefer and Triss doing shit things for self gain as well

>And Chapter 5 has you in another swamp.
Country side and the best chapter.

Why does Geralt look so goofy and not intimidating at all in 3, I always have to get that brutal face mod to take him seriously.

It's called "Swamp Cemetery" and it looks like this.

Pandering to normalfags

user, that's our friend called "Zoltan Chivay"

Lost

>Geralt does shit because Emhyr tells him to do stuff all the time
no he doesn't

good stuff. Fuck that overrated faggot, even if Foltest kind of got a bit too clingy for geralt's liking, he was still a cool dude and playing dice poker with him was great fun. Everybody sucking 2 and letho off is wrong and should shove the nearest dildos they find into all orifices immediatedly.

Fair point, and I do love him.

Foltest was by far his most based in 2, which is why it's the best game.

Combat is shit but everything else is great.
