The Witcher Twitcher 3 is awful

[Sergio]

He's just upset that Abby isn't in this game.

Witcher 3 is a masterpiece. The combination of world class writing, lore, graphics, giant world, amazing quests, engaging cinematics and characters with passable gameplay (Death March difficulty + combat mod make W3 combat better than most RPGs anyway, not that that's a high bar or anything) create a first class experience for people looking to immerse themselves into beautiful virtual worlds.

Of course I realize there are those of you who have no taste and would rather waste time theorycrafting munchkin builds or jump through developer hoops to show how "gud" you are, but Witcher 3 is what vidya games SHOULD be about.

I love the old "This game is a masterpiece...if you use mods to change it" argument.

1. Hold right mouse button to see the red smudge
2. Follow the red smudge
2. Do some barrel rolls to kill some monster
3. Get paid
4. Rinse and repeat.

Story in the first act is solid, but once you get to Novigrad it plummets. Heart of stone is peak and I remember Blood and wine being a slog.

Question marks everywhere! Ubishit at its best.

Kill a griffin at level 5 in Huwhite Orchard.
Eencounter another griffin later in the game. Looks identical to the griffin from before, but this one kills you in one hit, because it has a number 20 above it's head.

Even better, defeat a super bad evil moster boss, get killed later by a water hag that one hit kills you by throwing some mud at you.

Also your choices in W2 don't mean shit. Letho is the only one that can play a somewhat significant role if you rescue him and send him to Kaer morhen.
BUT...
...where is Saskia, Iorweth etc. Cut content I asume. What a shame.

I also didn't like the direction they went with Radovid. And him being killed by that cunt Philippa (if you join the plot)? Doesn't she fucking abuse him in the books? I don't quite remember.

There's probably more to shit on, but these are my main gripes with the game.

It's still a good game and I enjoyed it when it came out, because I played the previous games and was invested in the series. But replaying the game really shows it's flaws and sadly, those flaws overshadow all the good stuff.

If you've never played it, play it and you'll probably enjoy it.

There's not that much of information about Radovid in the book series. He was only 13 in the books. I don't think Philippa was abusing him, but he knew that she mentally controlled the assassin that killed his father, so he was holding a grudge against her.
But it happens at the very end of the books, so we know almost nothing bout this character.

 

[ShiningSoldier]

The plot is the weakest part of the third game.
The books series was full of the references to the real world, to the political events in Europe. The game? They did Radovid dirty, he's so evil he looks funny, not scary. The fact that they made Ciri into some kind of an almighty chosen one for teenagers just sucks.

The women all look like OnlyFans whores shooting "content" at a Ren Faire.

But you do know what the realistic alternative for that is in the current day, don't you. You should be grateful they at least look like whores, i.e recognizably female.

I mean there aren't just trashy whores, they could have been classy whores like Yennefer. Ciri's sections felt so ridiculous to play because she runs around in these high heeled fuck-me boots.

Thank you have brain cells and taste. The problem with Codex is Eastern Europeans discovered it so now we have to pretend that the ramblings of a drunk Pshekskifag are on the same tier as The Lord of the Rings.

Somehow got in a fight with a guard, he proves to be a herculean badass that withstands my strikes as if I'm litteraly remotely sneezing in his direction.
Cool, let him fix everything, I'm obviously not needed here
Lame towns and level locked items? yeah it's trash.

The supreme eastern european taste is defined by timeless classics as Fallout, Fallout 2, Gothic and HoMM 3; polacks are not eastern europeon (ask them, they claim to be central) so they shill for their domestic slop like twitcher or soypunk

Even mid-tier rus-jank like Hard to be a God is better than Witcher 3

Racist, canadian and retarded, if it was Dark Souls I would choose you as a character to have even more challenge.

Can you import your characters from your Witcher 2 savegames into Witcher 3?

No Arcanum?

Can you import your characters from your Witcher 2 savegames into Witcher 3?

Not really, all it imports are a few "decisions" you made but even if you don't have a W2 save you can simulate one a la Mass Effect 2's PS3 version by selecting what choices your Geralt would have made. There are literally only five choices to make, here are the cannon decisions:

Slavs are subhuman

• Spared Aryan La Valette
• Sided with Vernon Roche
• Saved Anaïs in Loc Muinne
• Left Síle de Tansarville to die
• Killed Letho

What you do with Letho makes the biggest difference in regards to content. Sure you can potentially meet Síle again but that's just a cameo, and Roche won't care one way or the other whether you worked with him in TW2 or not, and I don't think the other two even appear in TW3 if they live.

Sounds like you tards are too dumb to appreciate a timeless classic like Witcha 3, don't it...

 

[BosanskiSeljak]

i already exposed porky earlier in this thread so don't bother. he claims witcher 3 is a masterpiece but all his points are things done better in the previous games which he doesn't consider a masterpiece. logic dictates he would consider the earlier ones are masterpieces as well, but he doesnt, so he's another retard who is tricked by voice direction and production value. i at least understand biased poles, but this american retard is tricked even easier than them

 

[PorkyThePaladin]

The only thing you can expose, you cute little third world peasant, is that your avatar is that alchemist from Witcha 1 who looks like a monkey. Cuckstein or whatever. Which is fitting enough, since you got the brains of a macaque. And you want to use these to expose a brilliant man such as myself?

 

[YourMomsHouse]

It's about as timeless as rotting milk left out in the sun. Please cleanse your palate with Baldur's Gate, Fallout, and Deus Ex.

Lol, look at this one... Finally discovered serious RPGs and wants to show off his genre "knowledge".

I was playing these games while your parents still lived on trees.

You were probably sticking your dick in microwaved potatoes when when I was running those games on my Geforce 4. I don't understand how anybody who enjoys those three icons can unironically call the Witcher 3 some kind of masterpiece. You have a truly nonredeemable and demented mind. It's not even a real RPG and you deserve a permanent ban for endorsing it, I bet you are Spookyheart's alt.

 

[PorkyThePaladin]

That's because you are an idiot. You are new to games, and you think like all pompous, arrogant nooblets "oh, I can capture the essence of greatness in some simple distilled form" and drone on about it with like-minded morons. That's how we get bonobos here who think turn-based combat makes games good, or great games are about build variety, or C&C or other such nonsense.

The reality of it is that greatness can come in a million different forms, and cannot be diluted into some trivial bullshit that a retard like you can easily understand. Fallout was great because of some reasons, Deus Ex was great for other reasons, Gothic for something else, Ultima Underworld and Witcher 1 for other reasons still.

Witcher 3 is a masterpiece because it creates a vast, beautiful, immersive world to be lost in, a world with gorgeous production values and sights and sounds but also backed up by world class writing and dialogues and cutscenes, great quests and characters and moral choices, and touching moments and everything else that makes literature and movies and games so great. And if those things aren't quite matched by the quality of gameplay or combat or the Ubisoft elements of the game world, well, guess what, no game is perfect.

 

[Harthwain]

• Geralt is an extremely cringey and one-dimensional troon that only a 13 year old virgin could like.

Eh, he works out well enough. Mainly because he has some rules he follows and against the backdrop of the other characters, most of whom are pieces of shit in a shitty world, he comes out in a more favourable light. I don't really see the point of going hyperbolic here.

• The women all look like OnlyFans whores shooting "content" at a Ren Faire.

Frankly, this complaint is downright retarded. I will take that over trannies and ugly feminists any day of the week. I mean, this is not even a contest. And it is not like videogames are known for their realistic depictions of women:

Spoiler

• Complete shit combat, which is the meat and bones of this game = complete shit game.

Yeah, the boring combat is what really bring down the series for me. So much so that I didn't even bother with The Witcher III past the first Act, even though I found the setting to be decently done for what it is.

• Ultimately generic story that you smoothbrains think is great because you literally don't engage with any other media besides goyslop vidya.

The story isn't supposed to be that amazing. It is the delivery that helps carry it, for the most part.

• No actual roleplaying and extremely superficial/shallow outcomes for "decisions"

Sadly, this is true for 99% of RPGs.

• The NPCs may as well not exist, no way to interact with them.

Sadly, this is true for 99% of RPGs. What makes sense, however, is creating the illusions of crowds where crowds (or at least very populated areas) ought to be. So in this regard no ability to interact with EVERYONE is not really an issue, because people who have something to offer the player can be interacted with.
