I didn't expect my decisions to actually affect anything when I played it. Big surprise when I just clicked every dialogue option and things went poorly.

You can also load your save file into the second game and have that affect the story in minor ways, which I thought was pretty cool.

Folks do not agree that the first one sucks.

The acting isn't awkward in polish. Shit's funny as hell sometimes, Talar gets quoted regularly by people who have played it

Ok. So I won't understand it, but they won't sound dumb? Hmm.

Steam had the entire Witcher series on sale for a few dollars. I bought everything for the first 3 games.

There was some discussion of it at the time, and folks seem to agree that the first one in the series sucks hard.
As that seemed to be the worst plan, I went with it.

Yes. "It's rough." I guess the engine and content have gotten some backports and extensions. I'm not sure if you could play other characters besides Geralt before, but now you can. (EDIT ... Sorry, this seems to be BS. My bad.) They updated the graphics a lot. Its not great, but I think they fixed most of the really bad problems.

I don't know about the story. Seems pretty awful. Awkward acting. Its been fun just trying to play the damn thing.

Um ... I sort of like it. Gonna play some more now ...

What you need to understand is that cdprojekt was basically a barely functioning, very new studio over 20 years ago when they made the first Witcher. Foreign markets weren't a focus. The game was made with Poland in mind - especially because nobody outside of Poland even heard of the Witcher then. In Poland, it was the best selling game of all time when it came out. That's why the acting is wooden in english - it just isn't the market it was made for.

My friend, the witcher clan were dumbshits that let their hold fall and all their toys get stolen. I don't know the story as a whole yet, but there's some weird stuff going on. Since when do supermen get ostracized from society? They don't. Supermen run things and own all the stuff. Its hard to suspend disbelief when its so unbelievable.

Combat ... I like the timed combo click thing. Maybe its an old or outdated style, but so am I. Honestly, I think its kinda fun. Rewarding when you get it right.

So, you disagree that the acting is awkward, but you can't stand Geralt in English? Lol. That makes zero sense.
Do you speak English? Was that English? :]
Oh whatever. I'll try it in Polish. Can't be any worse.

About that dwarf cock ... Is your mother short?

You haven't seen "CTD" before? You're yankin' my pizzle.

Ever seen The Incredibles?
