Anyone else incapable of getting into these games? Especially with the combat, which is very mediocre.
I love them but I wont lie. So many people said 1 was great I bought it, played and couldn't make it too far into the first village the combat sucked so much.

>A whole year goes by
>Still see Witcher praise everyday on different forums
This time I force myself to get through it's combat system and ended up loving it. Combat sucked at first, got the rhythm down, ended up liking the combat. Not loving it, just liking it.
This is what I honestly tell my friends. It normally takes about 20 minutes to get into a new games controls. Double that for the Witcher games. But once you have it down, it becomes an enjoyable game.

the game is shit
Well, you're just part of the modern cancer, that only stares at fucking combat, in an RPG game. And while doing so, you're comparing it to DaS or something, expecting 1:1 real-time, direct-control type scheme.
TW1 was the only good game in the series so far. I played it a good 4 times in a row within couple months, and that got me super hyped for the sequels. Sequels that were just consolized, butchered shit.

This anon is no exception.
Seriously, I fail to see how the atmosphere, world and lore CAN NOT captivate people like you. Also is it really that hard to grasp the idea of gameplay, story and your gear + skills to actually advance and improve towards the end these days?
Jesus, just typing this here is making me want to go replay TW1:EE. It is kind of slow-burn, very high reward sort of title. A true comfy: the game, where you also get to sex up pack of vampires.

ayy
enjoy your shitty game of thrones meets twilight grimdark fantasy trash
The combat is mediocre, but the exploration and storytelling is fun. Great atmosphere.
What games do you consider to have good combat, Op?

Ye, can't bring myself to play it past first location. It's just so fucking boring for me, idk. Slavic fantasy setting with muh naked girls and macho grey sexy demon slayer. Nah. I'd better play through Gothic 2 one more time.

Hardly any role playing in the games.
I played the first one. Put 50 hours into it but it bored me so much I ended dropping it without finishing the story. Not even remotely interested on 2 or 3.
I don't think it's a bad game, but the thing is basically "Talk to NPC1, then go and talk to NPC2, then talk to NPC3 and depending on your choices talk to either NPC2 or NPC4". I prefer my games to be games.
The best part was exploring that swamp. I even found by accident a cannibal dude.

Managed to really enjoy the first one, despite initially hating it because of the gameplay
Really fucking hated the second one. I soldiered through the entire thing, as I figured like the first I just had to withstand long enough til it before it became enjoyable
Didn't give the third one a shot, fool me once and all that
The games are basically unnecessary, as the only qualities they posses are story and setting, which you could probably just get from the books without slogging through shit gameplay

You mean you can't get into the neckbeard equivalent of Twilight?
Witcher is trash. Childish power fantasy wish fulfillment. Want to be the biggest """badass""" and fuck all the bitches?
The one redeeming quality is that the landscapes look amazing. I won't deny that. The environments look great.
But the characters are terrible, the combat is even worse, and the writing should make you cringe.
