The gameplay can be fun, but the story just isn’t there. It’s connection to Bioshock 1 and 2 feels forced.

As soon as they do the first “dimension switch”, or whatever, I lost any feeling of commitment since everything done up to that point became worthless to the plot.

The super mario rpgs have some of the funniest writing imo. If anything, I think they were a breath of fresh air for the franchise.

Definitely recommend reading/listening to the books. Probably the best way to experience the Witcher overall.

I do love both the Witcher 2 and 3 though, few games make me feel as immersed in their world.
