I bought The Witcher last Saturday as some of you might remember, and I finished it at 04:00 this morning.
Was really enjoyable and a fun title with creepy bits, and then the "Wow, just check that shit out! " bits and plot twists like crazy.
Chapters 2 & 3 were by far the most difficult for me, this is because you don't really have all the nice things you want and there was a lot of running around and zoning. After that it was smooth sailing.
A big let down however was taking down the main antagonist Javed, which I thought would pose more of a challenge, and the epilogue where you have to nail Javed's "boss" and a certain "acquaintance" from your past was ridiculously easy (well, that is if you have the fire spells maxed out, maximum health and enduance)
(Suppose one could make a run at it without the great armor, magic and swords)
There are really a lot to keep you going, and doing the side quests is really worth the while, because the developers really made good on integrating the quests and side quests into the main story, and as for the better part of the game there was always the feeling of "being in control" of your choices in a non-linear play style.
Here and there it felt like things were forced a bit, but in general I enjoyed it (must have since I spent 20 hours on it this weekend alone)
Looking forward to sequal (with less bugs)![]()
