context on certain things
you should still play it though its not a bad game
not a great one either though

Don't ever let /v/ tell you whether or not to play a video game OP.

desu reading the books or atleast their synopsis will give you a better idea of the World of the Witcher than playing the first game. Although I recommend that you do it all since I love TW1 sometimes even more than 2.

I loved witcher 1 could play it again. But if you cant get past the graphics or the mechanics skip to 2.

I was hoping I'd get some real answers. Sometimes /v/ will surprise you. Besides, >Reddit

Story: brilliant, arguably better than W3, much better than W2, decent storytelling
Graphics: dated but okay, some locations look stunning even today.
Gameplay: lots of fun with alchemy and sign system. Combat is a rhythm game, annoying.
Translation: voice actors are bad, the script is corny, but it has a certain charm
Usual quibble: pacing is a bit slow in the beginning (prologue, act 1), just bear with it

TW1
Medieval detective game where you spend most of the time running across the main town. Feels like a 90s WRPG and got lots of content.
>TW2
Action game with some RPG mechanics. The main quest is pretty good, but all the side content is weak.
>TW3
Hundreds of well crafted side quests that are 15-60 minutes long each, but they hardly interconnect at all. Mostly pointless RPG mechanics, so there is no real point in doing side quests.

>>383521680
TW1 is a good game provided that you can get past the lackluster combat and kind of boring early chapters. Give it a go.

It honestly wouldn't be a bad idea to start at the very beginning with the books. The games stand on their own just fine, but the also benefit a lot from having the context of the entire saga, TW3 in particular and especially Blood and Wine.
