Polish video game based on famous Polish novels, The Witcher is an RPG with dialogue options which were the highlights of it back in 2007, but having started on this series anno 2015, I’m really trying to keep holding attention.
The combat is repetitive and simplistic, the inventory and loot system are clunky and time consuming, there are many loading scenes (also when you gather items each time) I really disliked the day/night system in order to trigger certain events, the order of doing the quests was convoluted and I lost interest in the middle of chapter III.
Perhaps the first Witcher really feels too outdated for me. And I played the Enhanced Version.

Now this is much more appealing. Also having played the Enhanced Version, The Witcher 2 is an improvement in pretty much everything, with a warm and moody atmosphere such as the royal forest, better dialogue, combat, story, music, sex and more.
It just so happens to be apparently the shortest in game length out of the three. Assassins of Kings delivers good, looks rich in the environments and establishes a memorable cast of characters while have a much better polished presentation.
I also liked the new mini games.

Without a doubt the strongest of the trilogy, Wild Hunt concludes Geralt of Rivia’s story, as he searches for his adopted daughter Ciri, with help from longtime friends such as Triss, Yennefer and Vesemir.
The Witcher 3 is a large open world medieval RPG made by Polish hands, with breathtaking scenery, music and impressive dialogue. There’s a ridiculous amount of quests to do, the combat, controls and interfaces are more polished than ever and I applaud CD Projekt Red for developing this ambitious project.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a very good RPG, not really Western or Japanese, but rather Eastern European. For many people, this will be one of the contenders for the Game of the Year title. I myself am still deciding between two other games, and a third one coming out soon might change everything.
