So witcher 3 basically fixed every one of these complaints. Clunky interface? Let's make it easier, and actually explain it. Terrible tutorial? Let's take the whole first chapter of the next game tutorializing everything. Can't drink potions during combat? Done. Autosave too stingy? Fixed. No fast travel? Added, but you can't fast travel from anywhere. Now that is how you make a sequel.
i just started playing the witcher series from the first game. IMO I must say i didn't have many problems when i got to the witcher 2. Overall i really like the game it was a blast! the combat was fun. the auto save works wonders compared to the first witcher not to mention you dont really need a fast travel usually everything is in the same area or along the way. An i find not doing the tutorial is better cause the controls are not very hard to grasp right away not to mention i believe there is a save screen that shows all the controls somewhere in the begging of the game. It was a big jump from the first game for me. Every big choice even makes you feel like it matters an there is out comes along the way. I would also recommend playing the first witcher before this one because it makes it 1000 times better and make way more sense.
games slayer That's because enhanched edition actually added detailed tutorial, made chapter III like 2-3 hours longer and improved controls and inventory system. Joe reviewed game right atfer it came to sell.
Wonjae Gye Yennefer is around quite a lot in the books and is barley mentioned in the games until the third, but triss is barely mentioned in the books and is around quite a lot in the games
And that's why we love the bastard. He understands the policies on nudity and he found one of the most creative ways of censoring it. Brilliant guy! Love him!
Damn, I really loved this game. The only problem I found, was that I went in hearing about a 'really difficult game that doesn't hold your hand at all'. What I instead got was an enjoyable first half, and a sudden drop in difficulty in the second. Halfway through Vergen (only played the Iorweth path) , I was near invincible. But my God, the writing was amazing. The way the plot unfolds with every level was awesome. My gripe with the writing though, is that...well, it wasn't terribly conclusive. Still one of the best games I've played.
Well then brace yourself for The Witcher 3, because it will go full on "Game of Thrones" on our asses! Spoiler alert! Major ones. Do not read past this if you do not want to know intrigue! We have Geralt's adopted daughter Ciri chased by the wild hunt dropping in. Her dad and long lost friend of Geralt, Emhyr, is the emperor of Nilfguard and the prophecy states, that her son will rule half the world and her grandson - the whole world. So Emhyr wants to marry Ciri and make babies with her. The wild hunt are after the power to teleport into other worlds, oh and turns out they are an elite conquering elven force from another dimension, where elves have purged all humans. That is one hell of a roller coaster!
Man, I got it for free too on XBL At first I thought it was a game like dragon age so I played on hard though it was my first time playing it, but when I got to the 1st chapter it was goddamn hard this game requires skill, precision, timing, strategy..it was a game built for skilled gamers not for some dumbass single button smashers that doesn't use brain..
What difficulty did you play, though? I personally played Iorveth's path on Normal, then Roche's path on Dark. The difficulty difference seemed pretty big to me. I agree on the writing; it's a really good game story-wise. You should check the books as well, I'm reading them currently. The first one seems excellent so far.
Desteko But thats my Problem. Theoratically The Witcher 1 played after the last book, but how can the Witcher 3 portaing the Story before the Witcher 1 withouth beeing a Prequel?
I don't get what the whole issue is with this game having no fast travel tbh. I mean, it's not like the maps in this game were *that* big. I never felt like it was taking too long to get anywhere...
Jacen Solo Tomasz Wota I agree with you guys for the most part, except for in chapter 2 if you went to Vergen. Having to run to the harpy grounds and all around that area got really annoying considering how many times you have to backtrack to that area.
KeusFrench That's more of an issue with the fact that the game had very strict ways of traveling on foot (can't jump over stuff etc). But I get what you mean, it was annoying for sure.
+Generic RUclips Channel yeah they added quest tracking, but it was just required, I mean do you really wanna spent 2x of the time searching for the questgiver in W3? This is a freaking long game already, no point in making in artificially longer like that. And frankly you can disable literally every HUD element if you want to, so I don't see any problem :D
The story is a different story, i thought we're talking about gameplay here. I do agree that Skyrim's combat is disgustingly easy compared to The Witcher's. Or how there's a floating magic quest marker for every quest objectives, treating us like a child. But all those can be fixed by mods. And also that's the point of my previous comment, i acknowledge Bethesda's flaw of design, but fortunately, there are the ever vigilant modding community to fix their fuck ups
Here's the thing kid. Quest markers remove the sense of exploration and discovery. If you have played Morrowind, they don't have quest markers, instead, the quest giver tells you the information of where it is, that adds a whole lot to immersion and roleplay. With quest markers, you no longer have to track where the quest objective is since there's a freaking radar telling you where it is, most people just B-line to the location. Sure it's convenient, but they're just dumbing it down for the kids.
+Donelle Lee You can not simply turn quest marker off. You're given no other direction. Those markers are your only means of tracking down the objective as no NPC gives you any actual directions. Just the goal they want you to accomplish. Some of my favorite quests in Skyrim and Oblivion force me to operate without the markers.
Can't freaken wait to start Witcher 3, but taking my time on beating Witcher 2 first, doing hard mode, then Dark. Loving it so far and can't even imagine how much the third improves over it.
Deathx Kinslayer A word of advise: when you import your TW2 save game to TW3, choose the Roche path save data because TW3 will choose it as the canon path/ending and completely ignores Ioverth's path regardless. It's not a big deal and it doesn't affect the game but it should help you avoid being like "WTF" when you import Iorverth save data and the game just pretends it never happened.
Nelson W. I've noticed one benefit of the Iorveth's path and I'm 80 hours into the witcher 3 already. I don't think it's a spoiler so I'm gonna tell you. In Novigrad there is a side quest in which you meet a dwarf who is guarding some entrance and in my case he let me pass easily without a fight and said something like "Great job there in Vergen, witcher!". Oh and importing saves doesn't make any sense because you'll be missing a discussion. Unless you have problem remembering your decisions.
Amur That's about the only thing, and even that can be easily be fixed with an Axii Sign if he doesn't want to let you in. Besides that, Ioverth and Saskia are non-existent, and for some reason Roche treats you like you're his best buddy and helps you out in a big battle because according to him, "you were there when he needed you the most." Most people who imported Iorverth's ending would be like "wut?"
I don't really think this game needed fast travel. The areas weren't that big and since the game wasn't open world, it wasn't something I thought was necessary.
klonvomhaus that may have translated wrongly, english is not my first language. I live in a country where even educated people earn about 400e a month, i can buy that pc here, but i would have to pay it off for 10 years
But Geralt was not born in Kaer Morhen. He was taken from his mother by the witchers of Kaer Morhen when he was still a toddler. So, Geralt grew in Kaer Morhen, yes, but he was not born there. And he isn't from Rivia either; he just picked "of Rivia" because Vesemir, the witcher-master at Kaer Morhen motivated his witchers to have a name that would sound amiable or attractive to people so they would buy their monsters-slaying services. Curiosly, Geralt earn the title of knight of Rivia after the Battle for the Bridge on the Yaruga later, so he is officially "of Rivia", as a knight, not as a commoner. If I'm not wrong.
+abra kadavr Geralt wasn't born in Rivia, he was trained at the Witcher academy sort of thing, and it is a requirement all Witchers must have a town after their first name, Geralt's mother or friend chose 'of Rivia.'
I remember watching this video 9 years ago, and I bought the game . Then I played the first game . Then I bought all the books , and read them all 3 times . Then played the hell out of 3 . This video introduced me to one of my favorite series and characters ever . Thank you Joe !!
***** Deal with it. People pronounce things different everywhere. You western people pronounce my ancestor Chingis Khaan's name wrong everytime. Genghis Khan? Unless informed of this pronounciation. We would have no idea what you mean by saying Genghis Khan. So deal with it!
So i started playing this game, the Enhanced Edition, on 360.... did the added tutorial and was really itching to get into the story after it. Started the prologue, on Normal, because i didnt want the game to be "too easy" i found myself dying multiple times in the tutorial, so i switched the difficulty to easy.... which i regret. Throughout the easy difficulty setting i probably used the "health" potions less than 5 times and never died after switching it. Combat became too easy i rarely had to use any traps or any of my bombs and some of the quick time events are taken out to help the game flow.... However, seeing as it is a for sure multiple playthrough game, my second playthrough will be on normal for sure.. The game is just like joe says, it is made for adults. The vocabulary and dialogue is very advanced at times. The story is beyond complex and can easily get confusing and act as a turn off for the faint of heart. You'll do yourself a favor to read the in game books, and browse through the journal that has bio's of characters, events and places... Once you get a grasp on the game, i guarantee that you will be hooked. And again, like joe says, it does a great job of setting the stage for the next game, which is supposedly going to be ridiculously fun.... For sure give this one a try and not the ol' "college try", i felt like i was laboring through the first 3 hours, loads of story minimal combat and just being confused, but once chapter one finally got going the game had me locked in.
reifsneider You can switch difficulty any time, but yeah I have to say, The Witcher 2 is a great game, but after playing The Witcher 3, The Witcher 2 ALREADY feels dated. With 3's crazy hair physics, wind affects, graphics, better open world, and several other things, I still look back at The Witcher 2 as an amazing for its time, but honestly gets its ass kicked by Witcher 3. Witcher 2 and 3 are both amazing.
reifsneider Difficulty issues are almost the same in Witcher 3: Normal becomes too easy fast, so better choose one of the last two settings and you will quite face a challenge here and then, even later on in the game! :)
How does this only have 290,000 views?! This is the best modern RPG I've ever played. It feels like a real authentic RPG. There were aspects of this game that blows away other titles I've played. This was such an amazing story to behold, the game was difficult and welcomed challenge. Combat was done very well. This was a game that was gritty and mature, like a RPG for adults. Choices had never been shown so much cause and affect. Everything you did had a major role to play in the ending. *Mild Spoiler I won't say what the ending was just its overall feel* Some argued they didn't like the ending cause it wasn't a happy ending. But it was realistic, should you take the path of the hero the game exposes you to the true burden a hero must feel. That no matter how much you fight the battle against evil, it won't ever come to an end. Evil isn't in a boss at the end of the game, its within the very core of civilization. As long as there are people with free will evil will always be a constant battle. And what people deem evil may turn out to be no worse than the very people who are fighting it. I thought Iroveth was a bad guy but after taking his path I realized him and his Elves are just being discriminated against. Should you give him a chance he actually turns out to be a good friend. Granted this story was already written by an amazing author but we've seen games with good source material turn out for the worse. I can't wait for The Witcher 3 cause there are no other games like the Witcher out there. I'm addicted to this game because the story was so immersive while I was playing it I felt like I was in a dream, and after beating the game I had that same feeling after you wake up from a really good dream, you just want to go back to sleep so it doesn't end. This story sticks with you long after you beat it. Not to mention they fixed a lot of the issues in the Enhanced Edition that was released for free in addition to the game. That is a gaming company I can get behind and be proud to say I'm a fan of.
TheMinxTail Oh yeah... no one wants to sign up for stupid Google+ Ugh I swear this is so stupid. I love the fact that RUclips has more connectivity with users and an easier notification manager, also being able to write more than 500 characters is nice. But all these changes could have been made without shoehorning us in with Google+ but that would mean more work so Google didn't want to do that. And whatever bullshit reason they have for doing it through Google+ is a lie. They just wanted their social network to finally get some activity. But no matter how much activity they get everyone knows it was against people's will. There's a reason why Google+ isn't as popular as Facebook or Twitter, any entry level web designer can tell ya the site is a sloppy mess. Google+ has bugs and glitches, failed loading errors and no customizing options. If people want to use a failed social network then let them. But RUclips should be its own thing, Google may own RUclips but they didn't create it. It's not their plaything... many users where here long before Google bought it. Sorry for rambling but its really pissing me off. My friends are losing their fanbase because people don't want to have to create a Google+ account and don't want to deal with their sloppy website. Its understandable why people want to remain anonymous on the website. If your boss had your gmail account, for work or something, and its associated with RUclips your boss can see all the comments you post and all the videos you liked. Is that really something you'd want?
Having played the witcher 2 I found it to have superior combat to your typical hack and slash. Its mechanics and how enemies usually deliver high damage encourage smart and practical tactics rather than just the typical "Run up to the enemy and keep hacking away till they drop and use a high heath/damage resistance as your main defense" tactics that can be present in some hack and slash and other combat oriented games.
steam sale its so fucking cheap now i got the first game and i hope that will make me love the series it costed next to nothing to bad my comp cant handle the second game but when i get a new comp il get withcer 2
or if you pre order witcher 3 on gog.com they will give you the best version of 1 and 2 for free along with a sound track and a art book for just 51.99
I adored this game. The combat was fluid, the constant inkling of danger and the riveting storyline were overwhelming, making every moment exotic and impressionable. It gave you choices that no other RPG would, infusing your personal morality into every choice you made in the game, not telling you which was right or wrong, the shortcoming of games like Fable or Mass Effect. It was an experience I had to relive a second time, with two separate story lines, Iorveth and Roche both, completely contrasting in both story and outcome. I'm surprised Joe didn't give this a 10/10, despite its shortcomings in alchemy and magic. It was a shining example of what all RPGs should be, and dayum gurl I can't even tell you how excited for The Witcher 3 I am :3
Couldn't agree more Eduardo Marin. I don't know what kinda cactus Boston Towny4life is hiding, but I do know it's in his but hole. The game was a resplendent masterpiece, and this review was top cut.
how come this video doesn't have atleast 2 million views?!!!This is hilarious. One of Joe's best reviews IMO. Although I think the witcher 3 review is even better.
I'm going to come right out and say it. I started this on hard and got my ass handed to me. I am too used to playing games that make you dear undefeatable. but I am going to start again on Dark mode and tear this game to pieces. I am determined!!!!!! wish me luck!!
Honestly the combat is pretty bad in this game. It had some of the worst collision detection I’ve ever seen. I’m a huge fan of the Witcher books included and the combat in this game reminds me of playing Halo 2 on legendary difficulty: super unfair
Eh . Ive a question : I played Witcher 2about 3-4 Times wothout enhanced upgrade . And i never saw that arena scene angry Joe was in during his Review. Could anyone tell me how i can get to that fighing level ?
I expected Witcher 3 to be a great 9/10, just behind game of the year candidate's Arkham Knight and Bloodborne. Truth be told, I thought Bloodborne was one of the best games I'd played in years - my first 10/10 experience since Skyrim or Arkham Knight - yet the Witcher 3 makes Bloodborne mediocre in comparison. It's unfair to compare the two, very different beasts and every gamer should be looking to own both but still. Never expected a game to make Skyrim feel so small and lacking in every area. Bloodborne blew me away, Witcher threw me out the window... if Arkham Knight can continue this trend I'll have one memorable gaming year.
ThePresentPheasant she is a sorceress and a druid...so for all I know she might live in the forest :P. But yes... she could be Temerian because I do not know where the Cat and Griffin school is located.. (because if any of those were locate outside temeria then that would mean that Geralt probably does not have a temerian mother.)
I think they are all in Temeria. The only school that isn't from Temeria is the Viper school. Its in Nilfgaard: its where Letho and the assassin at the end of TW1 come from.
ThePresentPheasant ... you think the continent is temeria dont you?.... The viper school is in the Nilfgaardian empire... but as far as I know there are no witcher schools in Temeria.
No, sorry it turns out I was wrong. FYI, no I never thought it was a continent, I just thought why else would he be fighting for Foltest? Although I mentioned his mother, after doing some more research, it turns out he was a knight, though it wasn't specified who for.
Should I buy this to the 360 or PC? I prefer the Xbox when I play games but the graphics seems so much better on the pc. Does it aquire internet connection to play on the pc? because my internet is really bad. And do I need Steam to play it?
I love this game, I bought it on xboxlive for 10 dollars. but theres one fatal flaw, no polish spoken language. I know for the fact the cd version had it, but this download version omitted it. I dont speak it but it wouldve been cool to hear em say "kurva" all the time.
for a person who doesn't have money for witcher 3 and is ready to buy this game first can someone tell me how hard or confusing this game is? is there a learning curve or is it as hard as dark souls?
Literally my only issue with this game was the fact that they give you a specific mission ans expect you to magically find it on your own with barely ti no direction other then that this and da origins are the best rpgs i have ever played.
For example when you hunt down the trolls wifes murderer and you try to find the guy who took the trolls head they give you no name just a vague someone who wants fame i at least never met this guy and only one side mission specifically telling you to go meet him which means the only way that i will know where to go is to do that mission before that one. Which is bulshit.
Ivan Savic Actually he's right on this quest, I had to look up a guide for it. I understood that you were supposed to ask your friends for help, but they still didn't give me any information. The game suspects you to just find a guy in a random shop, which is like he said bullshit.
Rayman When Geralt asked Zoltan about the info and dwarf said, that it must be person who is looking for fame and it must be a villager. Then Geralt says:" I must check the houses in village." c'mon man there are only about six houses in village next to Flotsam. I can't see any problems with that mission. You need only use the thing which you have between your ears. ;)
After playing the Witcher 3, I can almost guarantee the developers looked at your review, Joe, and designed a LOT of changes based around what you said here for the game. It's incredible how many suggestions you said you'd like to see that actually made it in to Witcher 3. Good on you man. Both games are amazing, but I honestly feel this review helped make the Witcher 3 the masterpiece it is today. Keep up your amazing work.
probably the best game I ever played, alot of people dont like it weirdly enough, but then again alot of people like CoD so I guess popularity isnt a defining factor, Witcher is an aquired taste, and thats what I love about it
If you have a mouse with built in hotkeys (I have a Razor Naga Hex), then I recommend playing with that instead of a controller. I love being able to rapidly use different signs (hitting the button uses it, not selects it) without having to pull up the radial menu. Now I only bring that up to select bombs.
I finally took the plunge today and got this game on Steam. Playing it now and I also got a physical copy of Witcher 3. Should I start playing this game or Witcher 3 first? Which game is easier for a noob like myself to start? Please advise. >_< I really want to complete these 2 games badly.
Carolina NolesFan you'll be going 'wuh' when some events happen. theyll probably expect you to know, like with the second in chapter 1 they introduce zoltan and dandelion just like that with no warning and if you didn't play the first then you would have no idea wtf was going on.
***** If I read correctly a looong ass time ago, an infographic about the Witcher series said that the European, Japanese (or Asian not sure) and American versions would be published by different people. Bandai is publishing the European version. This is what I read over a year ago so I dunno if it still stands.
Seeing the review 5 years later made me want to replay the game once again.... God damn I had forgotten how much of a masterpiece it was , dialogue and storywise. Even after finishing the third one, I missed the political and dark themes of this one. It's worth replaying just for the différent paths
Man I loved this game. I heard so many good things about it that it practically made me build my PC, and I was not disappointed. It still holds up even after playing the glorious Witcher 3.
The game may not hold your hand, but all you need is a gold marker, to guide you to your quest which it does. And thank God because if they didn't put a quest marker we all would be lost. But I still say Skyrim is slightly better then Witcher 2.
We very like Gothic(1 and 2 part). Witcher is a game made kinda like Gothic(no tutorial, hard combat, dark storytelling). Also we so proud of this game that our president gave order to CD Project RED.
11:40 The Enhanced Edition on Steam says there's a tutorial now: "A new, extensive tutorial system - allows gamers to be gradually and smoothly immersed in the game world and Geralt’s adventures." Joe, could you please add an annotation?
So witcher 3 basically fixed every one of these complaints. Clunky interface? Let's make it easier, and actually explain it. Terrible tutorial? Let's take the whole first chapter of the next game tutorializing everything. Can't drink potions during combat? Done. Autosave too stingy? Fixed. No fast travel? Added, but you can't fast travel from anywhere. Now that is how you make a sequel.
***** You can literally turn off all the HUD in Witcher 3.... including HP bar....

I fucking cringed at that CGI dragon, and I understood all they said which was equally as cringy.
Care to translate?
Chris Pham "people! People! Your highnesses! There is a terrible dragon over there!" Would be a rough translation.
Kamil Osoba It is a pretty terrible dragon
It looks like a stuffed toy.
Kamil Osoba When I first encountered the dragon it looked like it had a wingsuit instead of wings.
The beginning of the Witcher III review makes so much more sense now LMAO
Geez, that fucking dragon from Witcher tv series/movie became a synonym of godawful CGI here in Poland ._.
Thanks Joe for reminding me about what we all used to be scared of when we were kids and what we'll laught at for the rest of our days.
Damn, I really loved this game. The only problem I found, was that I went in hearing about a 'really difficult game that doesn't hold your hand at all'.

What difficulty did you play, though? I personally played Iorveth's path on Normal, then Roche's path on Dark. The difficulty difference seemed pretty big to me.

I don't get what the whole issue is with this game having no fast travel tbh. I mean, it's not like the maps in this game were *that* big. I never felt like it was taking too long to get anywhere...

This is a freaking long game already, no point in making in artificially longer like that. And frankly you can disable literally every HUD element if you want to, so I don't see any problem :D
P A No, have you even played witcher 3 ? If you want to have hardcore game just play on death march and turn off hud and everything. Hardest game ever
Alfa witcher 3 makes most games look like shit
Alfa *HELL YEA* Dragon Age Inquisition is one the few action RPGs that put me to sleep the first few hours or so TW3 completely destroys it
What the hell?! I didn't even know he made a review for this game oh well, better get my popcorn :)
4:32 I think Joe means to say "He's a man. Not a god!"
The Witcher series treats you like an adult
Skyrim treats you like an idiot
Sadly that is true.
Fortunately, mods can easily fix it up
The story is a different story, i thought we're talking about gameplay here.
I do agree that Skyrim's combat is disgustingly easy compared to The Witcher's. Or how there's a floating magic quest marker for every quest objectives, treating us like a child.
But all those can be fixed by mods.
And also that's the point of my previous comment, i acknowledge Bethesda's flaw of design, but fortunately, there are the ever vigilant modding community to fix their fuck ups
dark souls treats you like shit
Here's the thing kid. Quest markers remove the sense of exploration and discovery. If you have played Morrowind, they don't have quest markers, instead, the quest giver tells you the information of where it is, that adds a whole lot to immersion and roleplay.
With quest markers, you no longer have to track where the quest objective is since there's a freaking radar telling you where it is, most people just B-line to the location.
Sure it's convenient, but they're just dumbing it down for the kids.
+Donelle Lee You can not simply turn quest marker off. You're given no other direction. Those markers are your only means of tracking down the objective as no NPC gives you any actual directions. Just the goal they want you to accomplish. Some of my favorite quests in Skyrim and Oblivion force me to operate without the markers.
Can't freaken wait to start Witcher 3, but taking my time on beating Witcher 2 first, doing hard mode, then Dark. Loving it so far and can't even imagine how much the third improves over it.
Deathx Kinslayer A word of advise: when you import your TW2 save game to TW3, choose the Roche path save data because TW3 will choose it as the canon path/ending and completely ignores Ioverth's path regardless. It's not a big deal and it doesn't affect the game but it should help you avoid being like "WTF" when you import Iorverth save data and the game just pretends it never happened.
Nelson W. Ooh man x( well thanks for the heads up man, was gonna do roache's path on the 2nd go anyway, eventhough I much prefer Ioverth so far.
Nelson W. I've noticed one benefit of the Iorveth's path and I'm 80 hours into the witcher 3 already. I don't think it's a spoiler so I'm gonna tell you. In Novigrad there is a side quest in which you meet a dwarf who is guarding some entrance and in my case he let me pass easily without a fight and said something like "Great job there in Vergen, witcher!".
Oh and importing saves doesn't make any sense because you'll be missing a discussion. Unless you have problem remembering your decisions.
Amur That's about the only thing, and even that can be easily be fixed with an Axii Sign if he doesn't want to let you in. Besides that, Ioverth and Saskia are non-existent, and for some reason Roche treats you like you're his best buddy and helps you out in a big battle because according to him, "you were there when he needed you the most." Most people who imported Iorverth's ending would be like "wut?"
Nelson W. You're right :D Still I'm 100% sure that either Iorveth or Saskia will appear in the upcoming expansions. Probably in this Touissant city.
I don't really think this game needed fast travel. The areas weren't that big and since the game wasn't open world, it wasn't something I thought was necessary.

Ignini? where did you get the extra ni from? The kinghts?
just got it on steam for 2.99, it's on sale
i bought the game 2 years ago, bought a new pc a year ago, and i still cant play this damn game on high!!
Maybe try to buy a computer for gamers?
BOLO YOO you assume i live in a country where i wouldn't have to pay for a pc like that for the next ten years
kojbo Well you can buy a computer like that in germany or the USA... And you can try to... Well... buy it there and send it to your home?
klonvomhaus that may have translated wrongly, english is not my first language. I live in a country where even educated people earn about 400e a month, i can buy that pc here, but i would have to pay it off for 10 years
kojbo africa?
Temeria is not Geralts homeland.
Yeah, wasn't he born in Kaedwen? I mean, Kaer Morhen is in Kaedwen. And for those of you who think this, no, he was NOT born in Rivia.
I thought Geralt was born in Rivia, which is in the kingdom of Lyria which is south of Aedirn and east of Temeria.
But Geralt was not born in Kaer Morhen. He was taken from his mother by the witchers of Kaer Morhen when he was still a toddler. So, Geralt grew in Kaer Morhen, yes, but he was not born there. And he isn't from Rivia either; he just picked "of Rivia" because Vesemir, the witcher-master at Kaer Morhen motivated his witchers to have a name that would sound amiable or attractive to people so they would buy their monsters-slaying services. Curiosly, Geralt earn the title of knight of Rivia after the Battle for the Bridge on the Yaruga later, so he is officially "of Rivia", as a knight, not as a commoner.
If I'm not wrong.
+abra kadavr Geralt wasn't born in Rivia, he was trained at the Witcher academy sort of thing, and it is a requirement all Witchers must have a town after their first name, Geralt's mother or friend chose 'of Rivia.'
Nobody knows where Geralt came from. We only know that he is a child of a witch and a wandering bully. That's it. "Rivia" is just Geralt's nickname.

Are you trying to ruin both sex, AND Pokemon for me?
We all know we've beat it to Triss at one point.

Ehem...
DragonSlayer98 Well of course :)
I remember watching this video 9 years ago, and I bought the game . Then I played the first game . Then I bought all the books , and read them all 3 times . Then played the hell out of 3 . This video introduced me to one of my favorite series and characters ever . Thank you Joe !!
That intro = The most realistic depiction of a hardcore gamer, ever.
I actually liked the sex card things from the first one!
Witcher 2 is like Game of Thrones on steroids. I just love Witcher 2 :D
It's pretty harsh listening to Joe mispronounce "especially" and "Geralt."
It's not Exspecially and it's not Jared or Jareld.
Doesn't make it right. It's just annoying.
***** Deal with it. People pronounce things different everywhere. You western people pronounce my ancestor Chingis Khaan's name wrong everytime. Genghis Khan? Unless informed of this pronounciation. We would have no idea what you mean by saying Genghis Khan. So deal with it!
I have never heard a single person call him "Chingis," you dingus.
Stop making shit up to try and sound smart, because you suck at it.
Nomado "my ancestor Genghis Khan" Lmao, you're such an idiot.
*****
why bring gender in this?
the Witcher 2 is a masterpiece
I get goosebumps when I watched this after playing witcher 3. His remarks at the end was spot on and CDprojekt delivered!
So i started playing this game, the Enhanced Edition, on 360.... did the added tutorial and was really itching to get into the story after it.
Started the prologue, on Normal, because i didnt want the game to be "too easy" i found myself dying multiple times in the tutorial, so i switched the difficulty to easy.... which i regret. Throughout the easy difficulty setting i probably used the "health" potions less than 5 times and never died after switching it. Combat became too easy i rarely had to use any traps or any of my bombs and some of the quick time events are taken out to help the game flow....
However, seeing as it is a for sure multiple playthrough game, my second playthrough will be on normal for sure..
The game is just like joe says, it is made for adults. The vocabulary and dialogue is very advanced at times. The story is beyond complex and can easily get confusing and act as a turn off for the faint of heart. You'll do yourself a favor to read the in game books, and browse through the journal that has bio's of characters, events and places... Once you get a grasp on the game, i guarantee that you will be hooked. And again, like joe says, it does a great job of setting the stage for the next game, which is supposedly going to be ridiculously fun....
For sure give this one a try and not the ol' "college try", i felt like i was laboring through the first 3 hours, loads of story minimal combat and just being confused, but once chapter one finally got going the game had me locked in.
reifsneider the best tip i used was chapter 1 do it on easy and chapter 2 onwards go normal
Um its not that easy on easy it still pretty hard
Geekster Gaming7 just keep dodging, easy is easy :)
reifsneider You can switch difficulty any time, but yeah I have to say, The Witcher 2 is a great game, but after playing The Witcher 3, The Witcher 2 ALREADY feels dated. With 3's crazy hair physics, wind affects, graphics, better open world, and several other things, I still look back at The Witcher 2 as an amazing for its time, but honestly gets its ass kicked by Witcher 3. Witcher 2 and 3 are both amazing.
reifsneider Difficulty issues are almost the same in Witcher 3:
Normal becomes too easy fast, so better choose one of the last two settings and you will quite face a challenge here and then, even later on in the game! :)
okay I got the lotion part, but wtf were you planning to do with the socks???
How does this only have 290,000 views?! This is the best modern RPG I've ever played. It feels like a real authentic RPG. There were aspects of this game that blows away other titles I've played. This was such an amazing story to behold, the game was difficult and welcomed challenge. Combat was done very well. This was a game that was gritty and mature, like a RPG for adults.
Choices had never been shown so much cause and affect. Everything you did had a major role to play in the ending. *Mild Spoiler I won't say what the ending was just its overall feel* Some argued they didn't like the ending cause it wasn't a happy ending. But it was realistic, should you take the path of the hero the game exposes you to the true burden a hero must feel. That no matter how much you fight the battle against evil, it won't ever come to an end. Evil isn't in a boss at the end of the game, its within the very core of civilization. As long as there are people with free will evil will always be a constant battle. And what people deem evil may turn out to be no worse than the very people who are fighting it. I thought Iroveth was a bad guy but after taking his path I realized him and his Elves are just being discriminated against. Should you give him a chance he actually turns out to be a good friend.
Granted this story was already written by an amazing author but we've seen games with good source material turn out for the worse. I can't wait for The Witcher 3 cause there are no other games like the Witcher out there. I'm addicted to this game because the story was so immersive while I was playing it I felt like I was in a dream, and after beating the game I had that same feeling after you wake up from a really good dream, you just want to go back to sleep so it doesn't end. This story sticks with you long after you beat it. Not to mention they fixed a lot of the issues in the Enhanced Edition that was released for free in addition to the game. That is a gaming company I can get behind and be proud to say I'm a fan of.
Greg Muay shut the fuk up
Greg Muay Why didn't you like it
The vid being age-restricted would lessen the viewcount some
TheMinxTail Oh yeah... no one wants to sign up for stupid Google+
Ugh I swear this is so stupid. I love the fact that RUclips has more connectivity with users and an easier notification manager, also being able to write more than 500 characters is nice. But all these changes could have been made without shoehorning us in with Google+ but that would mean more work so Google didn't want to do that. And whatever bullshit reason they have for doing it through Google+ is a lie. They just wanted their social network to finally get some activity. But no matter how much activity they get everyone knows it was against people's will. There's a reason why Google+ isn't as popular as Facebook or Twitter, any entry level web designer can tell ya the site is a sloppy mess. Google+ has bugs and glitches, failed loading errors and no customizing options. If people want to use a failed social network then let them. But RUclips should be its own thing, Google may own RUclips but they didn't create it. It's not their plaything... many users where here long before Google bought it.
Sorry for rambling but its really pissing me off. My friends are losing their fanbase because people don't want to have to create a Google+ account and don't want to deal with their sloppy website. Its understandable why people want to remain anonymous on the website. If your boss had your gmail account, for work or something, and its associated with RUclips your boss can see all the comments you post and all the videos you liked. Is that really something you'd want?
What can you say about witcher 3? :^)
Angry Joe you should have said The Witcher 2 makes Dragon Age 2 its bitch
Pretty much
What happened to this review it went missing. I’m glad it’s back but, did anything change I can’t remember?
Question. Why in some parts of the video, with the player being hours into the 1st Chapter, is Geralt wearing the default jacket?
7:26 Goddammit Joe I was drinking coffee xD
Damnit Triss! You're going to rust my metal kneecaps by plunging me in water against my will! -Said no one ever...
Whats the song that plays at the beginning when hes watching it?
Having played the witcher 2 I found it to have superior combat to your typical hack and slash. Its mechanics and how enemies usually deliver high damage encourage smart and practical tactics rather than just the typical "Run up to the enemy and keep hacking away till they drop and use a high heath/damage resistance as your main defense" tactics that can be present in some hack and slash and other combat oriented games.
7:11 dumbsville moment
steam sale its so fucking cheap now i got the first game and i hope that will make me love the series it costed next to nothing to bad my comp cant handle the second game but when i get a new comp il get withcer 2
One of my friends from school just got it for me.
thats awesome i got witcher 1
or if you pre order witcher 3 on gog.com they will give you the best version of 1 and 2 for free along with a sound track and a art book for just 51.99
whats the name of the last song=?
Hey angry Joe I was going to by the witcher 2 but the dude at game stop said the controls were terrible for 360 is this true?
I adored this game. The combat was fluid, the constant inkling of danger and the riveting storyline were overwhelming, making every moment exotic and impressionable. It gave you choices that no other RPG would, infusing your personal morality into every choice you made in the game, not telling you which was right or wrong, the shortcoming of games like Fable or Mass Effect. It was an experience I had to relive a second time, with two separate story lines, Iorveth and Roche both, completely contrasting in both story and outcome. I'm surprised Joe didn't give this a 10/10, despite its shortcomings in alchemy and magic. It was a shining example of what all RPGs should be, and dayum gurl I can't even tell you how excited for The Witcher 3 I am :3
6 years later, i still think this is AngryJoe's BEST review ever. This is just brilliant
Couldn't agree more Eduardo Marin. I don't know what kinda cactus Boston Towny4life is hiding, but I do know it's in his but hole. The game was a resplendent masterpiece, and this review was top cut.
Nah He gave it an 8/10 imo this is the most underrated game of xbox 360/ps3 era
Hey Joe are you gonna be covering also the latest Witcher3 release?
Anybody know what that song is when joe is talking about the sex scenes? I want to have this as a ringtone!
I would like to now that to ,bro. Dont know even how to search it 🤣
how come this video doesn't have atleast 2 million views?!!!This is hilarious. One of Joe's best reviews IMO. Although I think the witcher 3 review is even better.
I'm going to come right out and say it. I started this on hard and got my ass handed to me. I am too used to playing games that make you dear undefeatable. but I am going to start again on Dark mode and tear this game to pieces. I am determined!!!!!! wish me luck!!
Good luck. It worth it.
Thanks. going to complete in anticipation to the 3rd :)
Atta boy!
Honestly the combat is pretty bad in this game. It had some of the worst collision detection I’ve ever seen. I’m a huge fan of the Witcher books included and the combat in this game reminds me of playing Halo 2 on legendary difficulty: super unfair
Eh . Ive a question : I played Witcher 2about 3-4 Times wothout enhanced upgrade . And i never saw that arena scene angry Joe was in during his Review. Could anyone tell me how i can get to that fighing level ?
I expected Witcher 3 to be a great 9/10, just behind game of the year candidate's Arkham Knight and Bloodborne. Truth be told, I thought Bloodborne was one of the best games I'd played in years - my first 10/10 experience since Skyrim or Arkham Knight - yet the Witcher 3 makes Bloodborne mediocre in comparison. It's unfair to compare the two, very different beasts and every gamer should be looking to own both but still. Never expected a game to make Skyrim feel so small and lacking in every area. Bloodborne blew me away, Witcher threw me out the window... if Arkham Knight can continue this trend I'll have one memorable gaming year.
John Smith I hope it does. :)
It didn't :( Was solid but the game should be renamed the Batmobile: Arkham Knight.
John Smith Too bad. At least you had the others to enjoy.
Geralt is from Kaer morhen in Kaedwen... (Of Rivia is just a name he adopted as a witcher) but yes you start in Temeria :)
His mother, a sorceress put him in Kaer Morhen so that he could be a witcher, Maybe his mother was temerian.
ThePresentPheasant she is a sorceress and a druid...so for all I know she might live in the forest :P. But yes... she could be Temerian because I do not know where the Cat and Griffin school is located..
(because if any of those were locate outside temeria then that would mean that Geralt probably does not have a temerian mother.)
I think they are all in Temeria. The only school that isn't from Temeria is the Viper school. Its in Nilfgaard: its where Letho and the assassin at the end of TW1 come from.
ThePresentPheasant ... you think the continent is temeria dont you?.... The viper school is in the Nilfgaardian empire... but as far as I know there are no witcher schools in Temeria.
No, sorry it turns out I was wrong. FYI, no I never thought it was a continent, I just thought why else would he be fighting for Foltest? Although I mentioned his mother, after doing some more research, it turns out he was a knight, though it wasn't specified who for.
I do prefer the Gorgeous and Stunning redhead. She has luminous hair and a very fit physique. >u
Hey Mr president as long as I can have Yennefer idc but I thought you were more into blonde hair
I prolly won't buy the game, but I am interested in reading this books. are they available on amazon?
Should I buy this to the 360 or PC? I prefer the Xbox when I play games but the graphics seems so much better on the pc. Does it aquire internet connection to play on the pc? because my internet is really bad. And do I need Steam to play it?
oh god Triss... I regret choosing Yennifer over Triss deeply regretting it...
fife007 I have went with both but atm is with triss
I love this game, I bought it on xboxlive for 10 dollars. but theres one fatal flaw, no polish spoken language. I know for the fact the cd version had it, but this download version omitted it. I dont speak it but it wouldve been cool to hear em say "kurva" all the time.
WAIT! NO SHIT?!
The Witcher is a POLISH GAME and has NO POLISH VERSION?!
KIDDING ME?!
klonvomhaus
No. He just downloaded the english version, that's all.
The CD English Version included polish voiceovers.So why is it missing on the digital ver.
Yeah... It was in his comment already... dumb question... XD
Christian Cortes
It was probably removed from the Xbox version to save the memory.
for a person who doesn't have money for witcher 3 and is ready to buy this game first can someone tell me how hard or confusing this game is? is there a learning curve or is it as hard as dark souls?
Although I know that I'm likely to get the incorrect answer, I'll ask it anyway: What was the music at the beginning of the video?
Darude sandstorm :)
Ok seriuosly its hardstyle sucker punch
Literally my only issue with this game was the fact that they give you a specific mission ans expect you to magically find it on your own with barely ti no direction other then that this and da origins are the best rpgs i have ever played.
For example when you hunt down the trolls wifes murderer and you try to find the guy who took the trolls head they give you no name just a vague someone who wants fame i at least never met this guy and only one side mission specifically telling you to go meet him which means the only way that i will know where to go is to do that mission before that one. Which is bulshit.
Ivan Savic Actually he's right on this quest, I had to look up a guide for it. I understood that you were supposed to ask your friends for help, but they still didn't give me any information. The game suspects you to just find a guy in a random shop, which is like he said bullshit.
Rayman When Geralt asked Zoltan about the info and dwarf said, that it must be person who is looking for fame and it must be a villager. Then Geralt says:" I must check the houses in village." c'mon man there are only about six houses in village next to Flotsam. I can't see any problems with that mission. You need only use the thing which you have between your ears. ;)
chdeaaa Im on that mission as well....Literally all Geralt says is: " I know people." Thats it!!! Lol
i like that there is no fast travel :D
Me as well, I like to take in my surroundings. For example Skyrim was just as a beautiful game and I never fast traveled
should i play this after playing witcher 3 and knowing all the backstory?please reply so i can buy this while steam sales
I swear joe took a glimpse into the future on the part about having to choose between the two ladies
After playing the Witcher 3, I can almost guarantee the developers looked at your review, Joe, and designed a LOT of changes based around what you said here for the game.
It's incredible how many suggestions you said you'd like to see that actually made it in to Witcher 3.
Good on you man. Both games are amazing, but I honestly feel this review helped make the Witcher 3 the masterpiece it is today. Keep up your amazing work.
AJ is so young here! :DD
MrSerrrg88 lol he's only 4 years younger, but it does look like he has aged a lot more than that.
Question here.....WHAT IS THE MUSIC IN THE BEGINNING!? I heard it at Wal-Mart about a week ago, and it is driving me mad.
could someone tell me the name of the ahhhh song that was playing it has very good umm how should i say base? yea let's go with base.
probably the best game I ever played, alot of people dont like it weirdly enough, but then again alot of people like CoD so I guess popularity isnt a defining factor, Witcher is an aquired taste, and thats what I love about it
Anyone know the name of the song at 7:12?
Sex the song? I don't know, try using the Shazam app
Jakob m8 I don't have a phone anymore :(
*Edit* Nevermind found it :D
iPlaySims4 What's the song ?
Dracnologia K search "hardcore sex remix", it should a smiley face as the thumbnail.
iPlayGames Fick schneller
thank shazam
Anyone know the name of the saxophone song at the beginning of the review?
I'm never gonna dance again- George Michael
Thanks man!
If you have a mouse with built in hotkeys (I have a Razor Naga Hex), then I recommend playing with that instead of a controller. I love being able to rapidly use different signs (hitting the button uses it, not selects it) without having to pull up the radial menu. Now I only bring that up to select bombs.
Joe sure does misuse the word "literally" a lot.
I've just bought this for £3 on steam :)
I finally took the plunge today and got this game on Steam. Playing it now and I also got a physical copy of Witcher 3.
Should I start playing this game or Witcher 3 first? Which game is easier for a noob like myself to start?
Please advise. >_< I really want to complete these 2 games badly.
Joe you really are the best at reviewing games, in depth unbiased and interesting too, good work dude.
I never played the first 2, but I damn sure will be picking up the 3rd when it releases for the xbox1!
You should play the first 2 they are still great games. Even the first one has aged well.
go play the first two, that is like only playing mass effect 3.
If I still had my 360 I would, but I gave that up when I bought the one.
Carolina NolesFan you'll be going 'wuh' when some events happen. theyll probably expect you to know, like with the second in chapter 1 they introduce zoltan and dandelion just like that with no warning and if you didn't play the first then you would have no idea wtf was going on.
I have plenty of time to play the first 2 before the 3rd releases, so it's okay.
4:32 Come on comrades, he's a man not a god!
What was the soundtrack from 7:11-7:40?
Nilfgardian ghost asylum quest is one of my favourite side quests ever, loved that it had a sinister ending.
7:11 *DUMBSVILLE BE LIKE.*
If the witcher 3 is released with a season pass and the story is incomplete....
All witcher 3 dlc will be completely free and just be small content updates
The full story will be at launch
JacobiSays36ersRock If it turns into destiny oh god...
We're lucky it ain't published by Activision.
LordDoucheBags Or EA.
***** If I read correctly a looong ass time ago, an infographic about the Witcher series said that the European, Japanese (or Asian not sure) and American versions would be published by different people. Bandai is publishing the European version.
This is what I read over a year ago so I dunno if it still stands.
Seeing the review 5 years later made me want to replay the game once again.... God damn I had forgotten how much of a masterpiece it was , dialogue and storywise. Even after finishing the third one, I missed the political and dark themes of this one. It's worth replaying just for the différent paths
Man I loved this game. I heard so many good things about it that it practically made me build my PC, and I was not disappointed. It still holds up even after playing the glorious Witcher 3.
The game may not hold your hand, but all you need is a gold marker, to guide you to your quest which it does. And thank God because if they didn't put a quest marker we all would be lost. But I still say Skyrim is slightly better then Witcher 2.
We very like Gothic(1 and 2 part). Witcher is a game made kinda like Gothic(no tutorial, hard combat, dark storytelling). Also we so proud of this game that our president gave order to CD Project RED.
Indeed, it does represent the style and attitude of Old Europe, that grim, dark realism you so rarely get these days.
Gothic and hard combat, no no no :p
Man i want to try Gothic so bad
trust me u don't want to. Gothic1 is 2 boring
maniak942
Still looks WAY better than Risen and Fable combined
11:40
The Enhanced Edition on Steam says there's a tutorial now:
"A new, extensive tutorial system - allows gamers to be gradually and smoothly immersed in the game world and Geralt’s adventures."
Joe, could you please add an annotation?
18:32 Song name ? And please for the love of god i know its not darude sandstorm.
Bethofenex darude....sandstorm I think
