> Name 3 games with better dialogue writing than the witcher 3You actually cannot. inb4 balding millennials say planescape tormentYou actually cannot. Tw3 is the crown jewel of gaming. The combat is shit though I will give you that
>>736039740I can't judge. Combat was already annoying to me in Witcher 2, so I dropped that game and never bothered with 3.
the witcher 3 is just a porn soap operawitcher 2 is racism muh squrlzwitcher 1 is the only good one
>>736039740Dialogue doesn't make for a good game, go watch a movie instead of huffing your own farts
>>736040173W1 has some soul.
>>736039740>You actually cannotBecause I dont give a shit about a dialogue in video games. Kill yourself tranny. Fuck your story and fuck your graphics and especially fuck your "vibes". Give me good game mechanics.
>>736039740Matter of taste butKCD1BullyThe walking dead season 1 (cheating)
>>736040173Based

>>736039740Yes, Planescape Torment.Expedition 33.Red Dead Redemption 2.
>>736039740Planescape: TormentVtM: BloodlinesKotOR 2.I might in fact go for Clair Obscur as well.
>>736039740Morrowind
>>736039740This was a good movie. I watched all the different ending cutscenes on YouTube. Why is this on /v/ though?

>>736040952THANK YOU!!! someone had to say it!
linear bullshit>le rpg but le boundarieslmao?
I legit believe that Cyberpunk is a better game than the Witcher. Hot take, I know
>>736041406the Witcher 3 is a steaming pile of dogshit with decent graphics and Cyberpunk is a fairly decent game with excellent graphics, that isn't really a hot take.
>>736039740Can someone please tell my why /v/ hates the combat in this game? What specifically? All I ever see is "combat bad". It felt fine to me.
>>736039740The combat is mid, not shit. Most RPGs have mid combat so it’s fine.Anyway for writing it’s a matter of preference but FNV, VTMB, KOTOR 2.
>>736041506It's not bad, it's just very samey. And you don't get a sense of escalation, like let's say in Cyberpunk.
>>736039740Everything in this game is shit outside of it's narrative, characters, and writing. I don't get how people can still play movie game slop when the gameplay is complete dog shit. Atleast CRPGs and JRPGs have the decency of being turn based and thus can have decent RPG and progression systems.
I don't think too many people argue seriously against TW3 having good dialogue. Pretty unthreatened hill to die on.>>736041079>>736041125I will push back on E33, though. That game's dialogue is mostly generic with some extremely low lows, mostly from that mumbly bitch Gustave.
>>736041506Haven’t played it in a long time but I never hated the combat. I think it’s just a meme /v/ parrots about the game to shit on it.
>>736039740Geralt is a witty douchebag and his hoes are witty cunts and that's that, everything else is just "le alcohol" and "le gwent xdd" and "le sex xddd"Disco Elysium mogs despite 90% of dialogue being mostly non-sensical loredrops (mostly, old niggas in europe love yapping about shit nobody cares about)
>>736040952Elden ring isnt good game mechanics
>>736041506Felt clunky, swords barely had weight to them, and was just a minor improvement over 2, where we already had dark souls combat years prior to 3 and no one took notes. The combat was just..... fine.Really it's just that this game was a story and dialogue sim, and not enough combat and gameplay elements to keep us invested. It was a ps4 visual eyecandy to grab your attention, but not enough gameplay to have us sit down for hours and play.If you enjoyed the story, great, props to you for sitting for hours and putting in the time investment, but most critics just stopped after white orchard or velen, slapped a 10/10 GOTY and called it a day. Few ever actually beat the game.
I’m convinced people who hate this game are low IQ.
>>736039740Name 3 games with legitimately good dialogue, period.
>>736041506>janky animations>geralts tank tread inertia>crossbow is virtually useless>can easily win most fights spamming signs even on death march>preparation only really makes a difference in the early game>ai pathing is dogshitJust off the top of my head.
>>736041912Thief 1, Thief 2, Thief 3
>>736041932Geralts movement mostly solved by turning on alternate movement response.
>>736041932Why is no other game held to this standard on /v/?Take Devil May Cry for example, I could easily say “can just beat the game by spamming attack” and it’s an objectively true statement.
>>736039740For the base game? Most of the well liked RPGs stand up to it, even the other two Witcher games. However I think the expansions elevated the fuck out of Witcher 3, it’d be hard to top those.
>>736039740Might as well just ask to name any 3 games.
>>736039740The Witcher as a series is literally ripe for discussion. So many philosophical battles and moral quandaries throughout the quests in all three games that we could debate, and yet /v/ insists on shitposting or waifu faggotry. This fact alone convinced me /v/ is not interested in discussing games but rather yelling at strangers online.

the main story is trash outside of the first act
>>736043052>debates on which fictional characters anons favor the most You’re several decades too late to think that’s a point of contention on /v/ or really on board on this site. Asuka or Rei is still the most important topic of discussion across the entire swath of media on 4chan
>>736039740>The combat is shitlol no, i can name many games with shit combat and witcher 3 isnt one of themyou fags dont play video games
>>736043179Asukachads WILL rout the Reitrannies once and for all
>>736039740Max Payne 1 and Warcraft 3. I'd also add San Andreas but its kind of comedic writing and nothing serious so it didn't make the list.

>>736039740Witcher 2Fallout New VegasFinal fantasy tactics advance
>>736044985> tacticslel
>>736039740The best dialogue won't save a game from infinitely bland and boring combat.
>>736041506You can beat every single enemy in the entire game with just a combo of light attack, light attack, dodge and spamming Quen whenever it goes down.
>>736041506I played Witcher 2 after playing dark souls I was extremely disappointed how shit the combat was compared to soul slopYou just have the same melee moveset for everything and spells are just hand farts
>>736046354Uh sweetie, it kinda did. This game is more popular and more loved than your favorite game.
>>736046842>the masses eat up shit>this must mean shit is really goodYou got me there bud.
>>736046974Yeah, reality is often disappointing but it's better than being delusional.
>>736047448Good cattle
I don't get why anons constantly shit on Witcher 3's combat, it was a lot of fun even if it was a little repetitive. The only complaints I had with it was locking on to enemies didn't feel right sometimes and the crossbow was terrible to aim.
>>736048067It got too popular, popular games cannot be good according to /v/.
Its been ages since I played Witcher 3 but I didn't really find the dialogue all too special. Even the Baron's quest was just alright despite being the highlight of the game for a lot of people. I just didn't feel attached to any of the characters so every dialogue bit was a couple of assholes being assholes to each other so I just picked the options that ended the convo asap.
