Reply To: The Witcher

[MartinR]

I’ve not played Witcher 2, but Witcher 3 was fabulous, racked up 180  hours on it, but I’m something of a completionist and like to do every single side mission. The TV series was good as it gave me some back story on the characters, but I felt I’d got to know them pretty well anyway.

The Baltic feel of the Witcher universe is quite unusual, compared to the usual cod medieval setting for lots of these things. Unlike a lot of RPGs, you can’t just slaughter your way to levelling up, well you can, but it will take forever and cost a fortune in weapon and armour repairs.

As noted above, your choices have genuine and sometimes far reaching consequences.
