I was playing the series in order and holy fuck did the writing in this game took a nosedive

I couldn't believe what I was playing it's like they completely re-wrote the series to appeal to 12 year old.

Witcher 2 writing was excellent one of the industry's best, Witcher is on par with Bioware


From what I'm reading on wiki's Eredin was already an established characters in the novels, why does he feel like a caricutare here. I mean FFS guy has Darth Vader voice and at one point he looks at the camera with an evil face.

Fucking hell, Witcher 1 isn't called the Wild Hunt , you have three interactions with the Wild Hunt and it The Wild Hunt has far better characterization than anything in this game.

As a series big finish this is worse than Mass Effect 3

Retract these statements and you might have a point

It's not bait that's how I really feel about the games from playing them recently in order.

W3 has by far the weakest writing it's on par with Bioware. It's like some retard exectuive made them took out anything morally ambigious that might confuse the ten year olds , yet they managed to sneak something in with the sidequests

I can't believe that whoever wrote Witcher 1 and Witcher 3 though this garbage was a satisfying conclusion. This game retroactively kills the previous games just like Mass Effect

dont forget to buy it on
GOG.COM

ITS ON SALE
GOTY EDITION

> Witcher 2 writing was excellent

Opinion immediately disregarded.

Sorry OP.. this is a GOG board

You're right, tbqh.

Witcher 3's main story was really weak. Typical (not exactly generic) epic fantasy bullshit adventure shit that I didn't care about. The sidequests were way better. The main story peaked with the Baron, and I was so hyped for what came after that. I thought the whole game would be that good.

I liked Witcher 3, but the main story was weak. It would have been better if they'd D R O P P E D the Wild Cunt and Ciri shit and gone full politics. We could have had an entire game about bro-ing around with Broche restoring Temeria by the grit of our teeth and doing Witcher shit, or the same with Iorveth, or all kinds of cool shit, but instead they went full epig fantasy :DDDD.

Witcher 3 is a good enough game, but it's also a huge missed opportunity.

>This game retroactively kills the previous games just like Mass Effect

>witcher 2
>good
Ok
>bioware
I remember the W2 DA2 shitposting

Just fuck off

But even the Wild Hunt has so much potential.

Avalach ,Eredin and the entire hunt situation were well developed in the books. I mean any idiot could take that and write something better than what we got.

Remember when we were all hyped for W3, CDPR promised a satisfying conclusion and three one hour separate epilogues depending on your choices?

Yeah..

No wonder MrBtounge never made any videos about TW3, it's fucking shit

Witcher 3 is my only experience of the Witcher universe but I like Eredin in the game, he looks cool as fuck

But yeah as I was playing the game I was wondering why the fuck it's called the Wild Hunt, you barely see them

>Witcher 3 is my only experience of the Witcher universe but I like Eredin in the game, he looks cool as fuck

The game was made for people like you, while shitting on two previous games and seven books

Do you have a problem with that? Take your obscure polak fantasy novels and obscure pc games and shove them up your ass, im here for the AAA blockbuster

>the wild hunt spectre is the final boss of the first game
>even when he made three apperances he's far better written and you have more interesting conversations with him than this game
>wild hunt and restoring your memories is one of the focuses in W2
>W3 ignores all the previous choices and characterizations ( Radovid wen't le mad?)

Explain to me how this game doesn't retroactively kill the previous games?

I agree, the main story and the Wild Cunt in particular are shit. The funny thing is CDPR show they can write well (side quests, HoS) so I don't know why they dropped the ball so hard with the main antagonists of the game.

>the main antagonists of the game.

You had Jacques De Aldesberg which was already one of my favorite twists

Then he was topped by Letho

Then you have...this

Just fucking watch this and ignore the poor animations

Where was this in TW3. This spectre of Eredin is a far more interesting character than the game called The Wild Hunt

>Witcher is on par with Bioware
>completely re-wrote the series to appeal to 12 year old

I'm a bit confused here. Isn't the latter a prerequisite for the former?

>DUDE EVIL TRANS-DIMENSIONAL ELVES IN BLACK SPIKY ARMOR LMAO
>THEY ARE COMING FOR THE MAGICAL PRINCESS
>AND ONLY THE X-MEN STAND BETWEEN THEM

At least the story is the same quality as the gameplay, the character progression, the world design, the balance and the itemization.

Truly the Skyrim of our generation.

The side quests and HoS have better writing than the main quest.
CDPR are very capable of writing good stories when they're not using book references.

Everything involving Ciri is shit, because shes a shit character - theres a reason they didn't have her in the first two games.

TW1 had an even worse Ciri-like character.

And a whore, too

She is literally about to fuck Skjall before the Wild Hunt arrive

Again, if you take what was already in the books about Eredin, The Wild Hunt , Avalach and Ciri and expand upon it, almost any amateur can come up with something better than they did for an ending of the series

Who, Alvin?

Not even close to being a bad character.

At least Alvin grew up to be a grizzled redpilled badass, Ciri grew up to be a whiny whore that doesn't know how to put on makeup.

Alvin had a hard life, his mind was fucked up by constant traveling and visions of an apocalypse
