Geralt the slave
Based on a series of books written by Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher takes us to an explicitly anti human alternate reality where there is no God and no hope, at a time when monsters are being slowly destroyed and replaced by those that are human only on the outside. The story is told through the eyes of an effeminate mutant, a Witcher called Geralt of Rivia. Enslaved to the predominantly female witches, who largely control the fate of the world, Geralt lives a dark and depressing life. Not only is he mostly powerless to resist being used by witches, but his profession is slowly becoming obsolete as the number of monster diminishes with each passing day. Combat is fairly simplistic and even at higher difficulties it is not very challenging, as long as one develops the right traits and uses the right tools for the job. A welcome change from many other similar games is the more European looking aesthetics, so at least the weapons and armour don't look like the comical caricatures we find in most other games. The story offers some choices in regards to which side Geralt ultimately fights with and which mistress he will serve. While sometimes cringe worthy and illogical, the story is generally well written. While the game failed to make me care about any of its characters, it is undeniably well made. I've played with some user made fixes and therefore haven't encountered any major bug in the game. A true miracle in these times. While being far from what I'd like to see, it is nonetheless the best game of this type that I ever played. It rightfully deserves the high praise and awards it received.
