I quit witcher 2 during the tutorial because it was so incredibly clunky but you guys are making me want to get this game anyway.

I actually liked witcher 1 but I think I had a lot more patience back then.

Witcher 1 has highs that are worth it, especially post-enhanced edition, but it's clunky and very rough around the edges enough that you can skip it. Witcher 2 is really good though like the writing and Geralt being a dick and npc's tricking you and loving you over that people are raving about from Witcher 3, are all there in 2. It's a really good game and it's like $3 during sales.

yeah witcher 2 isnt horrific or anything, but if you played 2 and just generally didnt have fun, gently caress it. the enhanced edition tweaked a lot of things but not enough to change people's minds IMO

im working a lot and all i wanna do is play this :(

Same. It's really stark because I'll come across a relatively unthreatening group of ~4 enemies and I'll have to fight them several times. And this is on the second hardest setting. I can't wait until I get killed a bajillion times on the first boss.

Same and same, and then I got this game and I like it a bunch.

Witcher 2's plot is great near the end when you find out all these people with their schemes aren't masterminds and even they get hosed over.

Since most of ya'll aren't gonna play the first game I want to share the badass oneliner when you beat the main antagonist.

*Villain is beaten and lying on the ground. Geralt draws his silver sword while standing over him*

VILLAIN: But that sword.. is for monsters....

GERALT: I know. :smug: *impales him*

I hate it when writers just can't resist adding extra lines like "is for monsters" and "I know" when staying quiet and interrupting the villain by freaking goring him mid-sentence would be way cooler.

I just rewatched it and turns out I hosed it up, Geralt doesn't say anything and just stabs the guy.

All of the quests in this game are so good. Every time I think one is going to be generic it throws me for a loop.

I just did another "go find this guy he didn't show up" quest and it was part of a long chain and could have easily had me run off a road and talk to someone. Instead I leave the big city, travel through the woods and up half a mountain to find the guy in a cave teaching rock trolls how to curse and make shoes.
