What about 1?
Worth playing today?
They're all shit.
1’s combat is timing based and can be hard to get into, 2/3 are much easier to get the hang of and have better graphics/voice acting.
both worth playing if you care about characters/story/etc at all. clearly dated, especially the combat, but in some ways more interesting than 3.
the atmosphere in vizima is fucking fantastic, and TW2 has a frankly incredible padding:content ratio aside from the harpy shit
are you a zoomer? play 3.
can you appreciate a good rpg? play 1.
2 is shit even though my boy roche is in it
Both are more interesting than W3 in some ways. Both look and play rather dated.
Decide for yourself. Also, you can just read books if you want more Witcher.
Just ran through both this week. Not bad.
1 is a decent length game with some combat that takes getting used to. 2 is good too with an upgrade in almost every way expect for length. 1 is a long river whole 2 is a deep basin. If you just wanna get into them for story go on easy mode and blast through. They'll provide a decent challenge on higher difficulties if you're into that.
I don't mind dated rpgs, long as they have good atmosphere and characters. I'll pirate them.
i really enjoyed the dungeon crawling and the brainless combat in 1
>good rpg
>shittiest combat ever made
Yeah I'm thinking cringe retard
like I said, zoomers get the cross and the 3rd game
2 is absolute garbage.
TW1 is the only GREAT game in the whole series.
>m-muh combat!
Yup, clearly zoomies know jack shit about ROLE playing.
Yes. Choose Siegfried's path in TW1 and Roche's path in TW2 for the most kino experience
shut up Yas Forumstard
Worst out of the 3.
1>3>2
The combat is atrocious but looks amazing and the story is pretty good, absolutely worth a play.
shut up sc*ia'fag
Yes and yes.
Witcher 1 has an amazing narrative. Witcher 2 has a good story with nice gameplay.
Play both.
humans are cringe, elf pussy is better
2 and 3, terrible. Do not play.
1 EE is kino AF.
>W2 has nice gameplay
That shit was excruciating
The thing about Witcher 2 is that both options are the Yas Forums option.
can any other cardgame even compete with gwent's art and animations?
1 is the best in terms of allowing you to dominate an RPG system by learning it's intricacies and preparing well. It's story is good after an awful intro, has a fantastic conclusion that recontectualizes a lot of stuff that may not have seemed important at all to be mind-blowing
2 has the best narrative overall though, & really is the only of the 3 games where it feels like the world changes around you, & the only place in the series where your choices drastically effect how the game ends (though Witcher 3 does a bad job carrying over the date of the witches in 2, regardless of what you did in 2, 3 acts like sorcereress get the bad end
3 has worse RPG mechanics than 1 or 2 (perk slotting and the level of pigeonholing for builds is soul crushing, cool builds start NG+). The scale of the world is huge and the quests are more numerous but much more repetitive, leaning hard as you:be probably heard on 'witcher vision' to make questing basically an issue of tjist following the map and red lines on the ground. But the adventuring and wandering the land is what people always wanted the game's to capture, even if it is generic for an open world RPG it's really a big part of a part of the book DNA too and makes sense for Witcher beyond just being the genre-type flavor of the decade
Play them all. Just be sure to play W1 in the faux isometric camera, trying to play it OTS is clunky garbage and makes the combat trash.
>he was alvin the whole time bro!
3 is basically just GTA/RDR in a fantasy setting
yes
Yeah the series goads you into thinking scoiateail can be reasoned with, books clear that up real fast
There's really no plot point in any of the rest of the series that compares. Alvin is witcher's 'villain who believably thinks he's doing the right thing,' & having him base his world view not only against situations the player was there for & but HOW the player reacted is absolutely kino, even if CDPR had to cut 1/2 of his outcomes when most videogames have cardboard villains by comparison
I literally said that in my post. The reason I brought it up was because being a rando wanderer taking up meandering sidequests is how geralt functions in the books as well
2 is the best one, anyone who disagrees doesn't know shit about video games
>no iframes
>no rhythym game combat
>most focused in terms of scale
>branching paths actually matter
>have to prep for combat or you will get boned
2 is playable but 1 feels like ass
