I can't get into this game at all. I am at the Baron questlines and I'm not trying to hate it, but

Why are you prefacing it with "I'm not trying to hate it" like anything you are saying is wrong or this dogshit normal geared game is deserving of anything but scorn? Don't hold back, your disgust is earned.

Your IQ is to high to fully get immersed into this normiegoyimslop, stick your head inside the microwave while turned on for a few minutes to fix this.

I'm not a knee jerk contrarian and I want to know whether this game is actually worth my time and hear some arguments on both sides. There's been a few games I've hated but then something clicked and I got into them.

everyone makes the mistake of thinking this is a sword combat game when its a spellcasting game.
max out you magic, cast spells only. you'll soon see

See that is the problem
try not to hate it
instead of
not trying to hate it
the difference is nuance and a white non-ESL skin

Just play witcher 2, master the 4 signs in tutorial, use sword oils and potions with all bosses
iorveth path or roche path are both cool for a replay
w2 is semi open semi linear with open hub areas
fuck tw3 slop
if you finish witcher 2 you will laugh at 1 and 3 shills
1 is a rhythm game

It's a story game where the story isn't even remotely interesting enough to salvage how bad the gameplay is. What I've found out is that there's apparently tons of fags out there that will buy any boring dogshit as long as it's set in a medieval European (fantasy) setting and it's made with a decent enough budget (Skyrim, KCD are some other notable examples).
>>
>>748976163
it's alright. I don't hate the game but I don't love it either. I think the combat can be fun on the hardest difficulty with skill slots added so you can have access to every sign and sword move without gimping your build though. it's just that for most of the builds you will be only really mashing light attack and side step, with a quen every now and then or whatever sign needed to fight an enemy type, like yrden for ghosts. though the new skill tree seems to make it so the alternate sign nodes and sword move nodes have additional power to them by giving them extra levels that make those moves stronger, we'll see how that plays out though.
>>
>>748976163
I tried playing 2 and 3, played them both for like 2-3 hours, hated them
>>
>>748976406
If this is your assessment of the game now, then it is not worth your time as it will be only more of the same going forward. If you are even the tiniest bit interested in the story then watch it on youtube.
>>
>>748976163
I'm in the same boat.
The world seems cool, but your'e constantly butting into artifical roadblocks that don't feel natural.
Combat is clumsy.
You naturally come upon a quest, get halfway through it before finding out you need to be maybe 8 more levels higher before you can comfortably do it despite being in between two quests that are of a far lower level, you have to constantly inventory hopping during bigger fights, etc.

It's annoying because there's some legitimately great quest stories in this that I've seen so far
>>
>>748976163
I'm playing on death march with a quick sign casting build, and it's been fun. Signs are more dynamic than spamming attacks. Crafting and alchemy is required due to enemies 1-2 shotting you

I think I speak for all witcher fans when I say that it would be perfect if either the new dlc or witcher 4 have an optional BBC cuckolding route. Lets be honest here, its pretty obviously what the fanbase wants, I mean have you SEEN how much of the porn of the girls from the series is BBC related? Being a witcher fan is basically synonymous with being a BBC cuck. I know I'm not alone in this, I've chatted with dozens of witcher fans on here and other websites who all say that this series is what got them into the BBC cucking fetish in the first place. I've always found the combat and exploration in the witcher games to be subpar, but what keeps pulling me back is just how built for BBC the girls are, and I know I'm not the only one. CDPR would be foolish to not capitalize on the fact that witcher fans LOVE being cucks for BBC, adding an official optional route to express this fetish in the game is a no brainer. Thoughts?
>>
The game has a filteru combat. Most people treat it like a hack and slash. Its not. Its technical, a la Bushido Blade or an arpg. You have to think before you strike.
>>
>>748976163
Witcher 3 is a movie game set in a pretty open world with a nice atmosphere, that's literally it. Take away the cutscenes and it drops down to a 3/10 game.

OP continues to spam combat feels like ass but cannot explain it.

Youre so cool for hating on a popular game bro. Tell me more things you dislike about it using the same 3 adjectives.

when was the last time you went a day without thinking about BBC or cucking

The quick sign casting was easliy the best upgrade to the combat thus far and I guarantee most people never use it since its not on by default.

There's just no point to play it.

It was good in 2015 and 2016 with the DLC. That's it. We all moved on.

The remaster is shit.

I tried the game yesterday but honestly if you aren't into the story and world it's not worth it.
>>
>>748976163
You are absolutely right about everything. And the Baron is the best this game gets, it gets into really generic / retarded territory later on (haven't played the DLCs), but the Baron is as unique among the fantasy genre as it gets ( slavic roots)
>>
>>748980614
Yes, I would say it has amazing enviroments, love the day night cycle, well animated cutscenes for every little side quest, well designed characters...
But the gameplay loop is really repetitive and really mediocre. And the writing is really bad. I mean it's time to face it Witcher bros. It sucks.
The first game will always be the best. Even if its borderline inacessible for the modern gamer

>>748976228

Because he's correctly realized that most posts on /v/ are trying to hate.

Based witcher 2 appreciator. Anyway w1 ultramogs the rest of the series and is one of the best games ever made. 2 is cool 3 is ok.

>>Geralt is doing a stupid Bale Batman voice
I honestly pity you guys for playing this game in english. Play it in original, it's much better

I played this game once many years ago and I remember not really liking anything about it specifically, but I finished it and ended up liking the game overall. Now I've tried to replay it with Remastered and I realise that the only thing I ever liked about it was a darker fantasy setting than most. I load up the game and immediately the mirror Yennefer is looking at doesn't work as it should. Geralt's voice actor is truly terrible. It's the only thing worse than the movement and combat. The only thing that even slightly appeals to me are the vaguely Slavic aesthetics. For example the glagolitic script used ingame is cool because I don't recall seeing it anywhere else and for my people in particular it's become a part of our identity though mostly as a motif since we don't officially use it like some Slavs use cyrillic.

Sigil builds would have been torture without it, cant imagine opening a menu every 2 seconds. I do wish I could do the same with shit like bombs or oil

Play the remaster with no weight, no weapon deterioration, modern combat and quick casting and it's a huge upgrade
>>
>>748976163
I thought the remaster was supposed to fix the shitty movement and combat?
Anyway Baron quest is kinda shit because it insists upon itself too much, at least wait until you reach Novigrad before dropping it.
>>
>>748986994
nah man, they didnt actually change the gameplay much at all
thanks for the tip ill play it some more until novigrad. reckon i wouldve enjoyed this game back when it came out but now its just feeling a bit dated to me.
>>
>>748987228
This game came out in 2015, game design hasn't changed whatsoever since then. The gameplay was bad and dated on its release day.
>>
I tried to play this game once when it was on gamepass and I made it about 5 minutes in before quitting. It's just some dude with a weird voice talking all the time. Soap opera shit. How the fuck does anyone think this is a great game? The gameplay is non-existent. It's just some dude yapping like a female all the time. No thanks.
