巫师加强版

Rewriting my review now that I've finished the game twice. And planning a third playthrough just to complete all possible paths. This is a game that I absolutely hated when I first tried it, but gradually grew to love. Yes, the MMO-like gameplay takes some getting used to. Yes, the Hellhound encounter at the end of Chapter 1 requires strict "metagaming" to beat, the hallmark of awful game design (invest all the talent points you can into Aard and put Specter Oil on your sword BEFORE you leave the cave with the witch). But despite these shortcomings, The Witcher now ranks among my favorite games; and even though I cannot give it a higher rating than 3 stars on account of questionable gameplay design like the previous examples, I consider it a "high 3" with a "Recommended" tag attached to it. The true strength of this game resides in its fascinating writing and world building. It is surprisingly engrossing and keeps you hooked once you get past the acquired taste combat. Hell, between a game like Dark Souls with supposedly outstanding combat (over which I still place a question mark, players have described it as unresponsive) and story/intrigue that nobody really gives a rat's sweet ass about, and a game like The Witcher with average combat at best but riveting intrigue and characters, I'll settle for the latter. The game will force you to make some pretty arduous moral choices, do you insist on remaining the human incarnation of Switzerland or do you choose the lesser of two evils, the results of which are directly visible and do affect the world around you in potentially major ways. Characters aren't one-dimensional medieval fantasy tropes, oftentimes they are quite complex with a wide gamut of motivations. And this all adds to the game's clearly above-average replay value; it takes a special kind of game to make me want to complete it for the very rare third time, two is my benchmark. The Witcher is flawed, takes getting used to and is absolutely worth your time.

Good fighting OG Romance (missing in Witcher2,3) Attention to story details Will re play

Excellent start to the Witcher series. Took a while to learn the fighting system so that you don't need to hit so fast. Brewing posiotions in meditation and lot of more to do than just fighting. Gives lot of hours to spend with this marvelous game. Only thing which I don't like is that it crashes occassionally but quick saving a lot is the answer. One of the games which I love to play!

If you are fan of witcher and like old games this is must play

Really like it as someone whos new to playing games
