Shouldn't ya'll be asking what was wrong with 3? It had some fun memes, but the story was shit, waifu pandering was garbage, Ciri was handled bad, Wild Hunt was handled worse, Skellige treasures, etc. What I thought it did right was force you to actually use signs, though the leveling was almost entirely garbage and most of those "skills" were useless aside from several ones. Also removed ZA WARUDO from 2. Soundtrack was 10/10, Geralt wasn't edgy enough, game was buggy as all living hell and the combat was meh.

>none of the story matters in the later games
It felt like fan fiction of the story that is told in the books. CDPR even gave Geralt another woman and another elder blood child that he was destined to be with. Now I am not saying it was bad but they had no idea where they were going story wise with the first game so they didn't really plan it out. Hell in the beginning, Geralt wasn't even going to be the protagonist and him and Yen were going to be npcs and Geralt would have been the mentor to the Witcher, but they obviously changed this among other things. With the second game came out they decided to go back to the roots and with the third one it was a full blown sequel to the books. The story of the first game became an after thought almost like it was the step child of the family.
>>
>>340996513
Nobody plays Witcher games for the combat.
>>
>>340994590
No because 3 was the best. 1 had the worst gameplay and a story that rehashed the books.
>>
>>340996513
What the fuck do you even want? He's a witcher with a sword, there's a limited number of things you can do with a sword while in combat as far as I know, and that is light attack, strong attack, maybe block and parry, then you have crossbow, bombs and signs.

How can it be the best game when it had the worst story and gameplay?

2 and 3 had problems of their own but they at least tried to fix the combat and they told their own stories. Hearts of Stone has the best story in the entire trilogy.
>>
>>340996747
They could have added different mechanics for combat like climbing or monsters, though considering the size of most monsters in this game it probably wouldn't work very well
>>
>>340997009
It didn't even work well in Dogma, although I played on console so maybe it was somehow fixed on PC, but the camera sucked, climbing was more of a gimmick than anything except for Grigori.
>>
>>340996781
>Well over 180 FPS but sometimes it drops down to 60 for no reason.
People like you make me just glad that I still pack a mere 60hz monitor.

Not to mention the game's not exactly fast-paced; it'd work just fine even with 30fps lock if necessary.
>>
>>340996513
Yes, and Dark Souls, a game that everyone (including me) claims to have a very good combat, is literally the same thing you described, spamming 2 buttons (attack and dodge) till everything's dead.

I couldn't play Witcher 1. I got about 12 hours in but eventually every quest had this "cut off one head and two more grow in it's place" feel and I got bored and felt like I was making no progress.

If you make an Assassin you get a skill that kills everything super fast once you climb ontop and use the skill, it demolishes most big enemies

People praise Dark Souls for it's controls which ends up translating to having good combat. Geralt is awful to control. I love the witcher but controlling Geralt is the worst part of the game. It's an awful experience in all three games.

The gameplay was hit or miss. The AI in the game was the biggest problem as it went from "press Mouse 1 to win" to "reload quicksave until AI doesn't bug out"

>>340988208
Because they're not good at making video games, just selling a product.
>>
>>340987220
Because:
UI was designed for PC, and
Combat wasn't 50/50 split between you fighting the controls and you fighting the monsters.

That's all it took to beat Witcher 1 and 2.
>>
>>340996747
I just liked the ways the combos and shit looked in 1, especially the 4-5 hit ones, where he starts doing some crazy shit. But Aard and Igni got butchered compared to 1 and 2, as in they were useless damage wise, and you had no reason to use Aard when you have Axii, which is basically a ranged stun for most enemies. They also fucking removed Heliotrope, and sign leveling and leveling overall was garbo.
>>
>>340987220
because they didn't make it for consoles
>>
>>340997851
Well in my experience with Witcher 3, Aard is much better than Axii, I can stun multiple enemies with Aard, then one hit kill them on the ground, also it takes much less time to cast it compared to Axii

Dark Souls and all souls games have different weapons with different styles and movesets, so you can pull some really fancy shit there, especially in BB. In TW, you have light and heavy attacks, and the fucking counter. That's it.
>>
CDPR improved the presentation and writing, but they've never been able to craft good RPG systems. The combat isn't even strictly what I'm talking about: their leveling systems have only gotten shittier over time, crafting has never been as good as it was in the first game and they continue to fall into the trap of making each level up not only take longer to achieve but making it less and less significant.

You know what would massively improve The Witcher 3's leveling? If instead of leveling up each skill five times you only leveled it up once for the full bonus. Afterall, you can only equip a handful of skills at a time.

A Thousand Cuts. Honestly I just never really *got* Dogma. I can see why people liked it but it just felt so mediocre. The fact that you're fighting bandits and goblins in the same places over and over again didn't help.
>>340997613
At least they do try to address shit. The Roach quest shows that they know horse controls are shit. Hearts of Styone addressed the story problems in vanilla. Blood and Wine addressed the pathetic boss fights, reused monsters, weak human foes, and the rather shitty post ending state in vanilla. I remain optimistic that Cyberpunk will benefit from them learning from their first attempt at open world. Hopefully stuff like controls and combat will be improved. At least they learned not to be fucking stupid and show footage before it's finished since they're keeping Cyberpunk under wraps.

The game had flaws, but even the things it does badly were done worse afterwards. The combat system has its limits, clanky and everything, but is deeper than its subsequent iterations and has a wealth of one hit kills, which are great in any combat system and really work to cement Geralt as a master swordsman, on top of looking very nice, without the help of cutscenes, and looking logical. If someone is stunned you don't do double damage, you aim for a weak point and you go for the murder stroke.

Still my favorite after all these years. It's flawed but the sequels did it worse.

Another huge thing is how buggy it all was. Me, being the memester that I am, go far out exploring, find this little fucking cave, venture inside, and find, you never would've expected it, a monster! But not just any monster, an ugly vampire motherfucker guarding Witcher Gear shit. I was like level 6, it was like lvl 11. So after various retardation and mouth-breathing, god knows how many deaths and frustration, I finally fucking kill it. And lo and behold, when I open the chest and read a fucking note, the game crashes, and because I was so ecstatic about the loot, I forgot to save.

>>340998182
That's the problem with Geralt. He has a fighting style that's set in stone. I actually admire how much cdpr stuck to canon with how he fights they even got the twirls right. The issue is it is rather bland like you point out. He has like 7 signs in canon and cdpr seemed to have condensed heliotrope into quen and they removed another one but his magic is basic. His magic is considered to be pathetic in universe so there is only so much you do there. My hopes that if there is ever another Witcher game it's not a Witcher we play as but a mage. Could be a nice change of pace and perhaps deliver a combat system that is satisfying.

I honestly think 3 is the best. Even if it isn't I still hold its a much improved 2. 2 had the best main questline but EVERYTHING else was not as good as 1 or 3. 3 brought back a lot of what made 1 so good.

No they weren't. All quest led to something that you needed for other quests or expanded on something about the game and most carried on till the end of the game

only truly fedex quests were the contracts and picking up the werewolf cure things
>>
>>340999837
my favorite thing about The Witcher 1 was how even seemingly random NPCs aren't "done" once you finish their quests. They can show up again in a new act with even new quests and they even interact with other NPCs.

Even side characters have character development. That amount of attention to detail and player interaction is what separates a good game from a great game.
>>
went through the games at launch of the third, and as much as i like the first, my rankings are 3 > 1 > 2

3 finally had ciri and yenn, 1 was what made me go read the books to get the story better, and while 2 was pretty cool, the other two were just better for me.

still trying to fill the hole the end of the story created. still have the dlc for tw3 to finish, but been hesitant of finally finishing it.

pretty much

that and the fact that the dialogue is written in such a way all positions are valid. They weren't be either jesus or satan and there was an actual reason for it since geralt is a witcher not human not a monster, you have a moral and law code you cannot breach but you are presented with situations where you cannot tell what to do

you are not a generic hero who does stuff just because but a witcher who is doing its job in the way witchers do

I think its the only RPG that is this well designed

I played two after I got to that ruined city killed a shit ton of harpies then quit because I got bored. I played 3 awhile ago on xbox and dropped it after I got to a castle. Now I bought it not too long ago for PC and put 40+ hours in and its become one of my favorite games, I just wish I had more time to play it.
They changed up magic I tiny bit by making alternate versions and being able to upgrade the sign.

Gwent is addicting as fuck too.

The best part is that when you are in the final parts he said to you that he did all he had done because of what you said to Alvin/his past self during the quests. Depending on the dialogue you chose he would say something different during hte ice world thing

Is it me or is Geralt in Witcher 1 a lovable, immature bastard?

He gets drunk and goes to whorehouses with his buddies and gets chewed out by the women he comes home to about reeking of liquor and waking the neighbors. Triss acts like she has to pull him by the ear everywhere to get him to behave sometimes.

Is Geralt actually like this or am I imagining shit? If so, it's funny as hell.

Okay, fuck it no patience for this shit.
1. Geralt cannot have children.
2. Triss cannot have children.
3. Retiring to a little home somewhere is Yen's shtick, not Triss'.
4. A Witcher and a Witch, both feared pariahs, living in a motherfucking village.
5. That damn kid having streaks of white hair.
6. A bit of a repeat, but Triss as a motherfucking housewife. Triss! Why not Eilhart while we're at it?!
7. Nitpicking, but a child wearing custom made clothes fitting exactly for them. What do children do? Oh yeah, GROW. She wouldn't even be able to wear that shit a month from then.

Goddamnit.

Not saying anything about Geralt's face because the artstyle is the less shitty part of this.

I love it personally. It was completely unexpected. Geralt at first came off as a bland, generic fantasy hero but the more I play the more hilarious he gets.
