Step 1: look remarkably like geralt

I love RPGs but never played this. Is it worth picking up?

[–]Harun12345678910[S] 251 ポイント252 ポイント  (27子コメント)

In my humble opinion this might be one of the best RPGs of all time.

[–]BipolarWeedSmoker 16 ポイント17 ポイント  (8子コメント)

Well that's a glowing review. Looks like you're well agreed with. Here's hoping there's an XBL sale soon!

[–]BananafishGlass 15 ポイント16 ポイント  (5子コメント)

It's a very immersive world, but, there is a lot going on that may not make sense. There have been 7 books (only six have been translated to English, book 7 comes out early 2017), and then the game series that continues the original book saga. They did a good job of making Witcher 3 accessible, but I'd definitely suggest having a wiki page open so you can look up characters and things if you're interested in the bigger story.

The game also has an in game encyclopedia of sorts for characters. Use it. Absolutely use it. Especially for Yennefer, Triss, and Ciri.

Edit: you don't have to put the time in with all the other media, the game does a good job of filling you in on the essentials. I just think that if you have time to invest in the books and other games, it is absolutely worth it.

You don't really need to read everything and play the previous games, a lot is explained in the game pretty nicely. Witcher 3 was my first game in the franchise and I understood everything pretty nicely.

[–]BananafishGlass 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Absolutely. I'm the same way. But now that I've read a few of the books and played the other games, holy shit, the world opens up so much more. Suddenly, random characters in the game are becoming amazing cameos, and you're getting all kinds of references you never knew were references...it absolutely is worth it to do a little research.

You don't have to, absolutely. I just think that if you have the time, you absolutely should.

[–]TexWonderwood 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I just started playing with no knowledge of the previous story and got along fine. But every now and then there is some dialogue options that is like "Well Geralt how can I trust you after you killed so and blah." and then you can pick "The fucker deserved it." or "That isn't even what happened." Which clearly has something to do with lore outside of Witcher 3

And I'm like I hope they don't think less of me if I pick the wrong thing.

[–]nateg2525 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Definitely agree, this was my first experience with the series and while conversations like this don't impact much, the game is so immersive that i quickly wanted to know these details and back stories

[–]mbuckbee 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Witcher 3 was the first of the series I had played and while there were definitely things that I'm sure I missed, it didn't leave me feeling left out as much as curious about the larger world.

[–]FappyJacky 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

It honestly is one of the best games out there. Its so worth the money, try to spring for the dlc as well because the blood and wine dlc provides a ton of even more content.

[–]Arckangel853 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Be sure to get all the dlc with it. Imo the story for blood and wine is better than the main story, and the main story kicks ass.

[–]Satarob 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (1子コメント)

THE best along with the original fallouts. Imo

[–]Harun12345678910[S] 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Agree, Baldurs Gate series was great as well.

[–]TheAmorphous 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (6子コメント)

How necessary is playing the first two before the third? I tried the first a while back and couldn't get past the clunky controls and bugs (on PC).

[–]Bali4n 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (1子コメント)

The first two are both great games, but also have their flaws. I personally love them, but you won't miss much if you start with Witcher 3. The stories are only connected very loosely, so you will propably miss some references but apart from that not much.

[–]Tedsville 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

After playing the The Wild Hunt first, I just cant play the first game. The combat is just.... so...... awful....

[–]Harun12345678910[S] 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Don't really need to play the first 2. but the Witcher 2 is huge improvement on 1, and 3 is even bigger one. You are fine with just watching a summery of the games on YT.

[–]NJWootton 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I tried playing 1 but couldn't get over the combat system, is it better in 2 and 3, I bought all 3.

[–]mudmunkey 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Skip the first,But I'd recommend trying the 2nd. While it's a massive improvement on 1 but definitely not as easy to get used to control-wise as 3, it's still incredible writing and story delivery. That's the main reason I think people should play it, it feeds into your experience of 3 in a way I can't really go into without getting a tad spoilery. It's on sale for dirt cheap all the time too. Every single sale I see it for sub-5$. Think I bought it again for 2$ a couple years ago.

[–]goldengloryz 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Not massively, you can go into the witcher 3 without any priot knowledge and still have a good time because the story telling in game is damn good. However in my opinion you will get a lot more out of the story if you have more knowledge of the universe from reading the books and/or playing the previous two games. If you are completely ignorant to the Witcher universe you may struggle to keep up with all of the characters that were introduced in previous media and probably will take a while to get to grasps with the relationships between them however you can probably generally infer most things from context or just go read a plot synopsis or two before hand.

[–]LilFuniAZNBoi 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I have the first two titles of the Witcher from Steam Sales but never really got into the game. Should I play them first then get the third one?

[–]Harun12345678910[S] 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

If you have the games , you should play them but the first one is quite clunky.

[–]ExternalCream 30 ポイント31 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Yes! The Witcher 3 was the first RPG in this style that I ever played, and I absolutely love the story and how immersive it is. The combat system was easy to learn and use as well.

[–]saampppa 24 ポイント25 ポイント  (2子コメント)

If this was your first RPG, you might have ruined earlier RPG titles for you since Witcher 3 is a masterpiece.

[–]Illusi 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I've played many RPGs before The Witcher 3, but everything afterwards has felt kind of bland in comparison.

Can't wait for Cyberpunk 2077.

[–]itaveL 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

This is how I feel about Souls games. Witcher 3 is one of the few modern non-Souls rpgs that have held my interest; primarily through great side quests. Easily some of the best rpg side quests I've ever played, possibly best video game side quests.

[–]Oldfatsad 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Just finished the main game (not starting DLC yet) and it is one of the better RPGs I've ever played. I loved it.

[–]BrosBeforeBruxas 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Lmaooooooooooooooooo. Just wait till you hit Blood and Wine--you'll be blown the fuck away.

[–]Oldfatsad 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I want to! Badly.

This all came during a move. I bought a house and we moved... turns out, internet isn't available in my area.

Witcher 3 was one of the only games not requiring internet to play, so I started it up and played it over several weeks.

Now I completed it, and I can't download the DLC :(

[–]oliseo 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I've completed the main game twice. I didn't have high hopes for Heart of Stone after the main game, because it was so awesome. How wrong I was, the Hearts of Stone expansion was every bit as awesome. Looking forward to Blood & Wine, starting later tonight. Amazing Devs.

There is literally nothing better in the market of this genre.

[–]talones 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Uhhhh. Yea! It's right on that level of RPG/Action RPG. It is the best game in the last 10-15 years for me.

[–]TheSavageSon 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Witcher 3 is the best fantasy novel I've ever read. And it's a goddamn video game.

[–]Beyond_Birthday 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I recently brought The Witcher 3 for PS4. My only experience with the Witcher series was playing The Witcher 2 on PC, and to be honest I never really got to into it. But now I have to say, The Witcher 3 is without a doubt one of the best RPG games I've ever played. The entire world and lore is so just so well crafted. Though I enjoyed games like Skyrim, The Witcher managed to immerse me like no other game.

In terms of plot, you won't find much better. In my opinion it sort of blows Skyrim and other games out of the water. The writing is stellar.

[–]AllContemplation 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Where are my sorceresses?

Definitely one of the best modern RPG. Go play it if you haven't! And that's an order!

The upcoming Divinity Original Sin 2 is also worth a look. ;)

You don't know what ur missing, its probably the best RPG made so far imo, top 3 for sure.

[–]CrawlingLuliGoGo 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think it is ok... I only played the launch version, though, which was a little clunky.

I can only assume it has been improved

It's amazing with the sheer amount of unique quests and exploration. They just threw it on sale for 30$ on PlayStation 2 weeks ago. They will probably do it once more this month.

Totally. In fact, I need to get back into it...

[–]100milesanhour 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Takes a bit to get used to as you don't know the story or gameplay. You just wander thinking, is this it? It's not.

[–]Total_Crane 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

TBH I never played the 3rd one, the 2nd one was cool until I got to one spot where I glitches then I stopped( and you can't jump), and the first ones graphics are so bad unless you are used to playing runescape you will want to tear your eyes out.

[–]Holein5 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

The game is beautiful, the storyline is great, but the questing system isn't designed well. What that means is you may be stuck at certain points because you don't know where to go to advance the plot. Eventually you'll figure it out, most likely by googling, but that shouldn't be necessary. I wouldn't call it the best RPG of all time, tbh, but it's close. Definitely worth picking up.

[–]vipros42 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Best game I've ever played. Could have been created just for me. Story, attention to detail, background, characters, dialogue is all superb. The DLC is amazing as well

I felt lost when I finished. I wish I could play it again for the first time. Going to play thr Last of Us and then third playthrough of Witcher 3

[–]GamerChef420 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

A single throwaway side quest in Witcher 3 has better production values and writing then some full games and I'm not exaggerating.

[–]Pegguins 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hmm, witcher 1 is severely outdated by now. Witcher 2 is absolutely wonderful, has that sort of final fantasy style corridor with a few side rooms style of story telling. Witcher 3 is full open world and while amazing design and full of content it feels like the narrative is lacking to me.

That said, 2 and 3 are amazing games and probably the best pair of western RPGs ever released imo.

[–]SpeedflyChris 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Best game of 2015, best RPG of all time IMO.

The blood and wine DLC would also be my pick for best DLC ever.

[–]fuck_consoles[🍰] 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Worth picking up, but W3 plays more like an adventure game than an RPG. The quests and visuals are very immersive, but the crafting and combat are lacking.

[–]Schmidtster1 -2 ポイント-1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Story is very good but the combat is absolute repetitive garbage.

[–]WaterWaster91 -2 ポイント-1 ポイント  (1子コメント)

It depends, I found the story restrictive and the lack of options for your character did it for me. It's open world, but you're stuck playing the one character and to the same basic story.

It's definitely good, but it just didn't feel RPG'y enough for me. I probably still played 10 or 20 hours though/

[–]magusviper 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I disagree. The story is basic and restrictive? There are like 27 different endings. The choices you make along the way determines which one you get. I don't see how that's "restrictive".

And yeah, you get to play one character. But that's just as bad a complaint as saying "I hate the facts that you have to use guns all the time in call of duty". You knew you were getting exactly that when you bought the game.

[–]gets_that_reference_ -1 ポイント0 ポイント  (1子コメント)

It definitely feels more "Sandboxy" than the other two, but in spite of, or perhaps because of this, along with an excellent narrative experience, it's a very good game. If you liked Mad Max, you'll like this. If you don't, you'll probably still like it.

Also, Gwent.

[–]CreepyGuy83 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

This game isn't remotely like Mad Max. Both are VERY different games.

Since I wanted to know the full story, I tried playing Witcher 1 and 2 before going into 3. Well, I got bored the heck out and decided never to touch the witcher franchise anymore. I wished I like it.

[–]Harun12345678910[S] 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Witcher 3 improves almost everything about the previous games, you should really try it. It starts of slow but after you enter the first big area be prepared to meet a great RPG.

[–]Zeal514 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Witcher 1 & 2 were awful. The combat and controls were so clunky it was terrible.

I tried them couldn't get into it. Witcher 3 is amazing though. Imo, I suggest you watch story recaps from 1 & 2 on YouTube, then play 3. Witcher 3 is 1 of few games to get me into it with 20-30 hours of gameplay before getting into the story lol.
