Sintesi

Il fatto di essere basato su una serie di romanzi di Andrzej Sapkowski - un autore polacco di successo - conferisce all'universo e ai personaggi del gioco credibilità, autorità e un'eccezionale coesione. In questo duro mondo fantastico non esistono idee astratte, assolute e incondizionate come "Bene" e "Male" scritte in lettere maiuscole. Al contrario, pur esistendo il bene morale, il protagonista si troverà spesso a dover scegliere tra due mali, decidendo la strada che considera il male minore tra i due. Il gioco presenta anche un innovativo sistema di decisioni-conseguenze ritardate nel tempo, che spinge i giocatori a prendere le loro decisioni in modo serio e ponderato.

Trama

Il gioco inizia quando Geralt di Rivia, uno dei pochi "stregoni" rimasti - cacciatori di mostri itineranti a pagamento, dotati di poteri innaturali - viene trasportato alla roccaforte dei witcher di Kaer Morhen dai suoi compagni che lo avevano scoperto svenuto in un campo. Geralt non ricorda quasi nulla della sua vita prima di quel momento. Viene portato a Kaer Morhen, la base degli stregoni, dove incontra una maga di nome Triss Merigold. Il castello viene attaccato da una banda di banditi chiamata Salamandra, guidata da un criminale noto come il Professore, da un mago di nome Savolla che controlla un grande mostro simile a una mantide religiosa e da un altro mago chiamato Azar Javed. Le streghe e la maga riescono a uccidere il mostro e Savolla, ma il Professore e Azar riescono a fuggire con i mutageni che alterano geneticamente le streghe. Dopo aver curato Triss dalle ferite ricevute durante la lotta contro Javed, Geralt e gli altri stregoni partono in direzioni diverse per trovare informazioni su Salamandra.

The game is set in a world createdSummary: The Witcher combines spectacular and visually stunning action with deep and intriguing storyline. The game is set in a world created by best-selling Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. The world shares many common features with other fantasy lands, but there are also some distinguishing elements setting it apart from others. The game features the player as a "Witcher", a warrior who has been trained to fight since childhood, subjected to mutations and trials that transformed him. He earns his living killing monsters and is a member of a brotherhood founded long ago to protect people from werewolves, the undead, and a host of other beasts. It's an action oriented, visually stunning, easy to use, single player RPG, with a deep and intriguing storyline.

The rural, Slavic atmosphere of the game is genuinely one of the best.There are some tedious quests, repeatable character models and some weird mechanics, but they don't stop you from having fun in it.

One of the most captivating rpgs that I have ever played. Something that I truly appreciate about the game is that it is often difficult to One of the most captivating rpgs that I have ever played. Something that I truly appreciate about the game is that it is often difficult to predict future events. This game is not focused entirely on loot, skills (although there's a wide variety), and other distracting (though important, I know) features. The game is all about the story. The developers intentionally put less loot into the game so that the player would not be distracted by superficial materials. The main character, Gerault, instead, grapples with challenging decisions during the course of the game. In most games today, it is a matter of good vs. evil (take Oblivion, Mass Effect, or Dragon Age for example), in which good usually prevails in a concrete, simple fashion. But, here we have a game where the line between good and evil is difficult to draw and define. You really need to analyze the plot to get a sense of Gerault's purpose in the game and whether his actions are good or bad. You might think that the main character is this nice guy that sets out to destory some evil nemesis (sadly the plotline of most games today), but you're really dealing with a much more complicated plot (which makes it interesting of course). Gerault commits wrongdoings like gambling, drinking, adultery, and etc. which shows how he is flawed despite his heroic deeds (he is indeed a tragic figure). I also found the ending very profound and philosophical. Unlike most video games, you'll actually find some insights into the human character. You'll question whether it is right to interfere with nature, and ask whether it's right to live in an ideal world. The quality of the artistry, dialogue, music, and gameplay is also very good. Overall, good game. At least give it a try. It will stick with you, I promise.

A great game. The graphics when on high are clean and quite pleasing, though the old neverwinter nights 2 engine is starting to show its age. A great game. The graphics when on high are clean and quite pleasing, though the old neverwinter nights 2 engine is starting to show its age. The audio is generally very good, the music especially deserves a mention, though i must admit as stated by other users that there are a few cringe worthy cases of bad voice acting/translation. The gameplay has a few flaws with the controls occasionally being slightly jerky and lootable items sometimes refusing to show up until the character moves. Despite this however the story is excellent and more than makes up for the games flaws, if youre an rpg fan I'd say this is a must buy.

Unique atmosphere - 10+ playability - 10 graphics - 9,5 music/sound - 9,5 inventory and equipment - 5 :( Overall - 10 as I am a bit old Unique atmosphere - 10+ playability - 10 graphics - 9,5 music/sound - 9,5 inventory and equipment - 5 :( Overall - 10 as I am a bit old fashioned and love complex mature story that requires me to think not to increase mouse-click speed or my hero to run here and there around the map to complete quests PS - in case you hate loading time - increase your RAM - in my case upgrade from 1GB to 3GB cut the loading times at least by a half and now it does not disturb me anymore.
