<--{ Gameplay }--> -The combat felt really weird at first and I had no idea what I was doing but once I got used to the timing system it became surprisingly addictive. -Leveling up was always satisfying and I often spent way too much time thinking about which talent to unlock next. -I also spent way too much time playing Dice Poker. I was somehow really good at it and made a lot of money from pure luck. ☐ Totally Addictive ☑ Very good ☐ Standard gameplay ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Kinda Boring ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't <--{ Graphics }--> -I didn't expect much from a game this old but I was honestly surprised by how good it looks. -For its age the game looks beautiful and had no problem getting me immersed in the world. ☐ You'll forget what reality is ☐ Absolutely Stunning ☑ Beautiful ☐ Decent ☐ Ugly ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ You might go blind <--{ Audio }--> -Some songs got repetitive because you hear them so many times throughout each chapter. -I don't remember most of the soundtrack but there were a few songs that I genuinely liked. ☐ Eargasm ☐ Masterpiece ☑ Good ☐ Forgettable ☐ Very Bad ☐ Painful to Listen <--{ Story }--> -I liked the story and it kept me interested all the way through. -Geralt is a interesting character and the first game did a good job setting up the world and making me curious about the next games. -There are plenty of choices throughout the game but honestly most of them didn't seem to change much in the end. ☐ Life-Changing ☐ Very memorable ☑ Engaging ☐ Average ☐ Some lore ☐ No Story <--{ Difficulty }--> -The game isn't very difficult but I still managed to die quite a few times. -Most fights can be handled with basic upgrades, decent timing and potions. ☐ Just press 'W' ☑ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls <--{ 100% Completion }--> -Since the game doesn't have achievements there really isn't much to grind for. -I completed every quest I picked up to get more Xp but it isn't necessary for a completion. ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Just A Relaxing Cleanup ☐ Time-Consuming But Fun ☐ Mentally Draining ☐ Why Am I Doing This ☐ Literal Torture <--{ Game Time }--> -My playthrough took around 90 hours but that's mostly because I did every side quest I found and also played through all of the additional stories. -If you focus mostly on the main story it will probably be much shorter but it's still a long game. ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☑ Very long ☐ You'll never touch grass again <--{ Bugs }--> -I ran into a few bugs during my playthrough mostly quest related ones. -They were annoying at times but nothing that completely ruined the experience. ☐ What bugs ☐ Minor bugs ☑ Can get annoying ☐ Worse than a mosquito ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs <--{ PC Requirements }--> -The game is old and runs well on pretty much anything. -You definitely don't need a powerful PC to enjoy it. ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent: for basic play ☐ Fast: for best experience ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer <--{ ? / 10 }--> ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☑ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10

I started the series with the Witcher 3, continued with the Witcher 2, and wanted to give the Witcher 1 a chance despite it being very old, and i actually really enjoyed it. However, the combat mechanics and the incredibly sluggish running/walking animations truly made it a frustrating experience. For a moment, i even wanted to quit the game, but i was stubborn and pushed through to finish it. The story progresses nicely, as mentioned before, the graphics are dated, so anyone playing it for the visuals will be disappointed. Someone who has played The Witcher 3 will definitely be disappointed here, but it’s still worth giving a chance.

Haven't played this since its OG release. An amazing gem though. Play this to realize why team Yenn and not team Tress is a thing. ;) Combat is definitely not what I remember it being (in a rough clunky way). So that has not aged well. But the overall story and experience is fun if you enjoyed Witcher 2 & 3 and want more of this world. Honestly you could just play on Easy to not deal with the combat if is frustrates you so you can go through the story. If you have patience to get through this 19 year old game though, it's a solid Witcher journey. Honestly I expect a remaster someday.

Even with clunky movements, the story, atmosphere, and narration carried the entire game. I can already tell the remake will be banger if it's done right, for me its an 8.5/10

My First Witcher Game I just spent over 70 hours finishing everything the game has to offer. My verdict? a mixed bag It's a time capsule from 2007, the atmosphere and the art direction are still great. But the technical side is janky. I lost count of the T-posing monsters and NPCs who delivered heartfelt lined while staring at a wall. The animations are often hilarious by accident, and I laughed more at the glitches than at some of the actual jokes. You have to embrace the jank. The gameplay is simple to a fault. Combat involves choosing the right sword (steel for humans, silver for monsters) and one of three styles. once you get the rhythm, you can practically play with one finger. I barely touched the alchemy system; by doing side quests, you become so powerful that chugging potions feels unnecessary. The story and Characters are fantastic. I went in knowing nothing about the lore, and the game does a good job pulling you into the world.
