Everyone talks about The Witcher 3, but why didn't you guys tell me the first one was the true masterpiece?

it's pretty dated, made with neverwinter night 1's engine

i actually like witcher 1's combat more than w2 and w3's

You haven't been in a lot of Witcher threads have you? I've said that repeatedly and I'm not the only one. That's a minority opinion on /vee/ but it's a substantial minority opinion: you can hardly find a thread comparing the Witcher games without someone ranking TW1 the highest. From what I've seen, I think it's about 30-40% that profess to that opinion around here, and the arguments people have in its favor tend to be consistent with each other.

haven't gotten around to 3 yet but i agree with 2 at least
2 is so piss easy even on Dark, at least you had to use half a braincell with Witcher 1

Because the power ranking is 2 > 1 > 3. faggots who only played 3 because it was shilled as the best game ever have no clue what they missed, Floatsam has more soul than all of 3's map combined

Name a better track.

But 2 sucks ass...
The story is good, but everything else about the game is just objectively bad.

i fucked a she-elf once

i dropped it at the swamp area
boring as fuck

the absolute state of zoomers

I have said it many times. It starts out good but the best parts are once you get past the second chapter, although the ending is admitedly weak. A lot of people get confused by the quests and drop it. The sequels never managed to match the authentic slavjank feel.
Same. The rhythm game style was more original and the alchemy and sign magic felt actually arcane, potent but limited. I don't like the budget Dark Souls combat they switched to.

Are you trying to imply the gameplay was good in any witcher game? Story and setting is all they have going for them

>walking around empty streets and talking to copy pasta npcs the game
I don't even hate it but it's still worse than the other two.

Yes, the gameplay was fun in the first game.
A great new spin on good old WRPGs.

YOUR MOTHER SUCKS DWARF COCK

The ultimate zoomie filter.

Yes, all of them have good gameplay.

What a bizarre opinion. 2 is largely devoid of the slavic charm of the original, while 3 is largely a return to form (and Toussaint is soulful in its own fairly tail land way).

The first two Witchers were mediocre games.

Pure atmosphere.

We literally did.

But it's hard to play because it's controls are awful.

witcher 1 had the best atmosphere

tried it back in 08 and couldn't get past the combat, 2 and 3 have pretty bad combat but 1 is something else

How stupid are you? Zoomers grew up on The Witcher. It came out in 2007.

Zoomers get hard filtered by it. Prime example: .

Beating the game, watching Geralt save King Foltest from a witcher assassin, and then sitting back in awe as the credits roll. Jesus it takes me back.

That would be like zoomers getting filtered by Minecraft. The Witcher is a zoomer-era game.

Witcher 1 is Eurojank perfection.

zoomer? my first console was the genesis, the combat is shit, but i guess if a game is niche and not popular faggots like you will defend it no matter what to feel special

>but why didn't you guys tell me the first one was the true masterpiece?
That's because you're new.
This game has been posted more than ever in the last 5 years.

I still think Gothic I is the peak of Eurojank, but Witcher I is up there.

I got filtered by the jank combat. Neither 1 nor 2 had a good intro, and the frontloaded mechanics/rhythm combat struck a bad chord. 2 was great though once I got out of the shitty tutorial and first hour. I think if I stuck with 1 for another hour I'd come around, but man I hate rhythm combat.

I've been wanting to play them for a couple of years but not got around to it. Maybe with my Cyberpunk disappointment I should.

I replayed it a month ago. It's still a great game but cheatengine speedhack is a godsend for all the goddamn walking back and forth across the map.
The combat does a lot more things to stay interesting than I remembered, although the balance falls apart in the endgame.
