I started a new game again and gently caress this games so good. The new update makes the UI a lot better too. Can't wait to get to the DLCs.

Would it be okay to skip 1 and 2 and go right to 3?

Absolutely. If youre that worried about it just watch youtube vids for the story.

This is the first Witcher that I've really gotten in to. I've read some of the books prior to this, and I really like in the game how each sidequest is like a little short story. It's very well written.

some of the sidequests are better than main quests in a lot of games

not trying to troll, but when people say the world building and writing is good, + the design is good, the music is good. but nobdy is saying the combat + gameplay is good, then everything, imo, is probably actually bad.

The combat is good on the highest difficulty imo. The only actually "bad" fighting is on horseback

its more like the other stuff just outshines the decent combat mechanic because its leagues better than in other games, whereas other games do the combat part better. The combat is still really satisfying but the world/story itself is what actually motivates you to do stuff which is rare and how games should be imo

yea

youre very wise. I tried playing through this last year and the world and story are cool but I couldnt stand the combat which is the actual gameplay part of the game so I thought it was rear end and stopped playing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

honestly if you dont play on the highest difficulty the combat is pretty boring and repetitive because you get overleveled way too quickly

This game is easily the greatest game of all time, including the future, but gwent is trash for idiots and should be replaced by interactive pissing contests between Geralt of Rivia and his oponents

Just got started on the DLC as well and man this quest worked so well it got me wondering how many other tired tv tropes would work insanely well.

Touissant is incredible to look at, the 'build your base' thing is something I will never get tired of doing in games, the tourney is fun as hell. Man this game pwns. It might be the best single player experience I've ever had.

without a doubt for me.
