The most boring game ever

Abysmal, I have no idea why it has high reviews, I assume it must be some sort of review phenomenon because of the enhancements and the lore and the fanbase, because I don't think anyone who slightly knows how to judge game design genuinely thinks this game is a 9/10 (at least not for today's standards).
I could give examples of why it's awful, but they're everywhere you look. It has none of the good qualities from TW3 (I can see the origins, they didn't start good though), in 4 hours I felt mildly entertained only for 30 seconds, and the controls and mechanics are so bad they actually might regularly cause physical pain if you have something like wrist problems. And the combat is so simple, badly designed & bad-looking it's the worst thing I've ever seen somehow, worse than any browser, mobile, cheap or old game I've seen. Though I guess it is old.

good

good

flavour and ambience is awesome

absolute cinema

Good story but had a terrible combat system , so you need to accept the pain of combat system to be able to complete this game , But overall I like it thanks CDP :)

Still great .Playing after a long break,and it's fun.

It was all going so well until Alvin arrived...

The Witcher 1 has a decent storyline with player decisions driven story so it's not too linear, actually nothing much to say in my short time playing.
The music is enyoyable, character voice acting sounds a bit amateur here an there, but it's an "okay" for me.
The graphics is quite decent for it's era, nothing much to say.
BUT the combat and movement is really sucks and awkward, which is a massive deal breaker for me, overall not quite a pleasant experience.
I played for a couple of hours and I couldn't bear it anymore lol, instead I just watched the story recap to grasp the main plot and went straight into The Witcher 2.

Might revisit the story later when Witcher 1 Remake is done.
It's worth to try anyway, the overall game system is just not my cup of tea, so...
Great start for the trilogy!
