Yes, it is a good game, cheap right now, and it somewhat helps you better understand the characters in TW3. For example, when you play TW3, there will be a scene where you are being cleaned and asked to answer questions about Geralt's past. If you did not play TW2, you will have no idea wtf these questions are asking lol. Also, you will know more about important characters such as Triss Merigold and Vernon Roche
Not just that, there is also Letho, Sciatel destruction, Foltest fall, lodge destroyed, and some other stories. For more info for the rest of characters and lore books are important!
To be fair, though, you only get asked these questions in W3 only if you choose to simulate a W2 save, you won't if you choose not to. That said, though, the lore in W2 gives context to a lot of things in W3, and the game itself is amazing, so definitely worth a play
@@khaledassaf6356 true the only gripe I have with the game is it’s somewhat abysmal combat system that makes it extremely difficult on higher difficulties because of the clunky combat
It’s an amazing game, even in 2021. You find out a lot about the events which lead to Witcher 3 and about some of the important characters. Story is very interesting too. In short, you absolutely f*cking should.
I never played the witcher series before. recently I bought and xbox series and the first game i purchase is the witcher 3. After reading all this comments i definitely should buy TW2. Thanks!
I just finished W1 (and it was a total drag playing through) and am now on W2 and my goodness is it a beautiful looking game. I started on W3 so the way this feels in terms of gameplay feels good compared to the first.
@Geez, people these Days its ok for the story. I'm honestly not a fan of the point and click game play. As opposed to the usual hack and slash from The witcher 2 and 3. It was a drag to me because there were moments I just didn't know what to do. Its not a terrible game by any means. I would still recommend it
@Geez, people these Days there's only blood and wine and heart of stone. Both are really good in their own way and could be played in any order. Blood and wine was my favorite because it was so vibrant and colorful. I usually start with heart of stone first
if you go into witcher 1 with an action rpg mindset,you will not enjoy it. i know it cuz didnt enjoy it that much until chapter 2. once you understand that its an RPG game with a rythm based action elements. then it gets muuch better. as for witcher 2.i think they tried to LOOK like an action rpg while still retaining witcher 1's clunkiness in mechanics. as someone who relies on visuals for almost everything(dark souls taught me that) witcher 2 was the total drag game for me. it was soo clunky and unresponsive.
@Geez, people these Days look at my other comment,if you can get into that mindset,you will love witcher 1. as for witcher 3 dlcs. most definetly do hearts of stone before beating the main game and do B&W after.
@@winstonchurchill7822 I can understand that. There was something off about the combat. I remember hit detection being awful. And fighting groups of enemies being a nightmare. After finally completing all games in order I was a bit disappointed that in the grand scheme of things my decisions really didn't have much of an impact throughout each game.
Definitely still worth playing even without mods. In my opinion, the storyline is better than Witcher 3. The graphics still holds up and looks good. The relative lack of open world exploration actually provides a sense of focus and urgency to the plot. The thrill of playing the permadeath mode on Steam is my most memorable PC gaming experience.
Agreed. The base game storyline in W2 is superior to that of the W3. The only thing carrying the plot for W3 (not including the DLCs ofc those were amazing) were the characters.
@@mingQWERTY the amazing Detail, the sidequests, ofc graphic, gameplay, lenght of Story, knowledge about the Universe,dlcs, and many more Things were better in tw3. Tw2 is good but tw3 is far better. Purely Main Story is better in Tw2 tho but main Story is Not the reason tw3 is loved.
@@Random_user21242 I agree. Many people didn't play TW3 for the main storyline like you said, they play it for the great and developed characters, the beautiful open world and the fantastic DLCs. There's no denying that the DLCs are masterpieces. I'm not saying that the W3 wasn't good because it surpasses 'good' and even 'amazing'.
@@mingQWERTY I think it's a matter of taste. W3 was more personal - Geralt looking for his daughter, reconnecting with his lifelong partner, putting an end to the saga spanning from the books. W2 was about the Witcher world. The politics, the scheeming, the shape of the land. Some like that macro stuff better than the micro. W1 managed to balance the two relatively well story-wise, owing a lot to the fact that they chose to give Geralt a clean slate and not fill any blanks.
The Witcher 2 is a masterpiece. The writing is one of best I have seen in fiction that just gets better as the story progresses. Love the politics with the northern realms and how the game has such a dark and unforgiving atmosphere.
One of my favourite games ever. I love how much it focuses on the Northern Kingdoms and their monarchs compared to the Witcher 3 which over simplified the politics for new comers.
I know this may be impossible but in the future like mass effect legendary edition, imagine CDPR make 1 game by integrating the witcher 1, 2 and 3 with the DLCs integrated into 1 map (I would assume the game would cost around $70) with witcher 1 and 2 being remade/remastered to look like an updated version of the witcher 3
@@carlisclosetedphgt3666 But Geralt isn't gay in the books or in the games, so having a gay romance option doesn't make a whole lot of sense in the context of the lore. I get it's an RPG, but it isn't meant to be a "play Geralt however you want" kind of roleplay, they force you to play Geralt however you want within the range of his existing personality/philosophical view of the world/history.
@@bassomitron If people want a gay romance option it would be while playing as Ciri since she is already bisexual. Honestly would’ve been plausible to have the option of romancing Skjall’s sister or something especially since you already have the option to tell her you prefer girls and her tattoo is mentioned.
When I first played TW2 it completely blew me away and it still belongs to my alltime favourite games. The only thing that annoyed me about the game was the Kayran :). But apart from that the game has really aged well.
Loved it a lot, played it twice, first with Iorveth then with Roche. That "Dwarven Stone upon Dwarven stone" song in Vergen made me just stop in the middle of the street and listen to the music. It is a great game.
Yes ! When TW3 came out, I liked it. Then I replayed TW2 again and I remembered how much I love this game and how it blew my mind when I first played it. To me it's better than TW3
I actually played TW1 short after its release (and loved it) so when TW2 came out I was so excited. The step up from the first game, especially graphic and gameplay wise but also the story was something else. I love TW2 as much as I love TW3. TW2 is still a highly recommended game.
I played this in 2021 and couldn't believe how well it holds up. I played it on the xbox one x and it's enhanced and looks really great. The choices you have to make are fantastic. At least 3 times I had to put the controller down and stop and think "OMG what I am going to do". In addition the world feels really genuine and alive. The civilians are in the bar or on the streets chatting about world events or local events. It's all in context. The civilians have relevant animations. It makes the world believable, immersive and engaging. After playing Witcher 2 all the way through, I immediately started playing again to make different choices. These totally affect the story and what missions you do. I love choice and consequence like this as it makes the game YOUR story. In terms of the game world and choice it's pretty hard to believe that the same developers created Cyberpunk. BUT I would NOT recommend Witcher 1. That game still crashes frequently, is frustrating as hell, wastes your time going backwards and forwards again and again and although it's nice to get acquainted with the Witcher world, there is not much relevant story that relates to subsequent games in my opinion. You mostly just learn what a Witcher is and how they operate. You meet some of the main Witcher characters but you don't learn much about them. The focus on making great characters comes in Witcher 2 and all future games including Cyberpunk. They are world class at making memorable characters.
As much as I absolutely love TW3, I think I enjoyed TW2 more. There’re a few reasons for this but mostly I was able to get more immersed in TW2 probably because it being more linear and kept the story flowing better than TW3. I played it twice, the first time I wasn’t able to get into it because there’s a lot of lore going on. The second time I forced myself to really get into the world and I absolutely fell in love with everything Witcher lol
I always cringe and get a bit frustrated with people who compare the Witcher games to Bethesda's games. They're completely different types of game. The Witcher games are story-driven "RPGlites" (a term I use, inspired by "roguelite") and the third game integrated some open world sandbox fun into the mix. Meanwhile, Bethesda's games have always been sandbox games where freedom and the ability to live another life in another world is the key point to the game. I love both, though I prefer Bethesda's style overall. I don't believe that it was so much that this game stayed in Skyrim's shadow. I vividly remember people talking about this back then as a masterpiece of a story-driven adventure/RPG game. It didn't receive a huge amount of recognition because, at that point, the franchise was still relatively niche and the narrative RPG fans were more focused on games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. I've always said, even back when I was still skeptical of CDPR and the Witcher franchise (which was stupid, in hindsight), that I felt like Dragon Age was a lot closer of a comparison for these games than Bethesda's games are.
@TheIneptFox Everyone is entitled to their opinion but let's at least be fair: it was not a "kids' RPG". It had every definining core trait of an RPG. Every TES game excluding the 90s spinoff, Redguard, meets every core traits of an RPG.
@TheIneptFox That's not a fair comparison, though. PoE/Divinity/BG, those are all narrative-driven tactical RPGs. They have a specific way they play. Skyrim is a sandbox RPG; its very nature allows people to play it however they want. Ergo, kids will find it a lot easier to play that kind of RPG because they can play it how they want to play it.
I still love this game and I'll make two comments not made here. The first being it came out on PC first then got a remaster for Xbox 360 and PC, the second it has real feeling and heart which I think The Witcher 3 lacks a bit of, but not completely of course. They put a lot of soul into The Witcher 2 so it shows they cared greatly about what they wanted to do, I hope the next Witcher game proves they still have it.
I'd say lot of what earned CDPR their credit was ability to listen and actually react. I had W2 in preorder and in polish, so basically 2 weeks before official premiere. I didn't work at all. Then was the issue of horrible fighting style, lackluster signs and alchemy influencing close to nothing. Also the final act that was like half of something. But they listened. W1 was what we consider now a kickstarter project, with its issues and lot of hard work. W2 was ambitious as hell and for me- it was playable (enjoyably) like 2-3 months after launch. Same with W3... This reminds me most ambicious of their projects, the CP2077... Each time they brought what they could best and then improved it.
@@dustingonzalez8080 Nice. I've been waiting for a sale for last few months, I was tired of waiting and got it full price today. I do not regret though
One of the most underrated games of all time. Amazing, dark story with decisions that really matters, beautiful graphic that still holds up and all of it You can buy for something like 1$... In some ways this game is better than the Wild Hunt. If CDP R was like EA, they could easily make remaster with better textures an charche 30$ for it.
Disagree I cant even finish the second game and I've played 3rd game twice maybe if I'd startd with second game but it's just not fun to me for many reasons that I dont feel like explaining probably for no reason
I'm the type of person that keeps older game consoles and my favorite games for those consoles. And The Witcher 2 is one of my most cherished Xbox 360 games overall. (I would consider it a Must Have for the 360)
I watched this vid when you dropped it, and it inspired me to play Witcher 2. I played it and damn, I wish I played it before Witcher 3. Not that I didn’t love TW3 (150+ hrs in that) but I would have had a much bette rides what was happening off the bat. I’ve now beaten TW2 twice, and can’t wait for the TW3 Complete edition.
Replaying the Witcher 3 on pc for the first time with hd rework, ghost mode, various combat and weather/ music mods and I’m truly amazed with how well it holds up today. When I finish I’m gonna replay Witcher 2 for nostalgia factor!
I remember this game well. A couple weeks before it released I saw the cutscene of Iorveth and Letho meeting in the cave and immediately knew I had to play this day one! Silly me, those kinds of scenes are usually 100% CGI and just give false hope... but The Witcher 2 actually delivered an amazing looking game an introduced me to an amazing new world (and book series). I happily played on my small laptop on lowest settings at like 20fps until I eagerly bought and put together a proper gaming PC... parts of which I'm still using today! The game was brutally difficult at first but they must have toned it down a notch with some patches because I swear I died like 50+ times before I got to Flotsam my first time, but then playing it later was as piece of cake by comparison (that fire boss was always a pain though...). Definitely a must play for anyone who wants extra context for Witcher 3, or just wants more time with Triss, Dandelion, Zoltan and the gang!
The first time I played this game (after witcher 3), I genuinely felt so overwhelmed by what had happened in such a small space of time I had no idea what the story was about. Probably because Witcher 3 is much less linear and padded out and longer, this game is very linear in comparison and packs a very dense narrative. The more I play it, the better it gets. I’m on another play through atm, and chapter 1 has been maybe my favourite part of the game. Iorveths chapter 2 is wicked, and I wanna play again as it’s been years since I’ve gone through roches path. It’s an amazing game and sets up the 3rd game very well.
Oh yeah absolutely !! What a beautiful game and the story is really good. Also there is a wildly known reputation about its mechanic and the fighting being so hard (almost dark souls like), it really isn’t and it’s actually good and quite smooth, not as smooth as TW3, but if you get used to it it’s really rewarding and good!
My biggest complaint with the Witcher 3 is the lack of interaction with npc, u can't really talk to anyone and they just walk around. Still an amazing game tho
Im about to start this game. Should I do the side quests or can I just play the main story. I've read it might be beneficial to set easy mode, and do main storyline only. Thanks.
As someone, that only recently started playing the Witcher games for the first time, I can see that the W2 story and the way it tells that story is good. Graphics wise it still holds up, but mechanically it is very old and very clunky, GUI and inventory system is not very intuitive. Alchemy is also a bit of a mixed bag, but makes sense from a lore perspective. So if you can stick with the clunkiness of the game you are in for a really good story.
I was told about the Witcher from a friend while we where playing ESO and they said I would like it then I saw that 3 was on game pass so I loaded it up started playing and then the game asked if I wanted to use my choices from the 2nd game so naturally I bought the 2nd after few hours of playing 3 and learning a little about the characters and their impact of the story so I deleted my game saves and played all the way through 2
I'm playing and loving it! My old PC could not take it, for that reason I had to wait until I buy a more powerful. Actually I was eager to play the 3 so much I played before 2 but without problems, although the graphics are not the same I'm enjoying the same way! 🤩
Get ya the High Texture pack, the Extreme Vegetation pack and the Vergen grass fix and you're good. Heck, even vanilla the game holds up. I really love the unique 2 part nature of the game. You truly can't see the entire game the first playthrough. You literally miss the entire center half of the game depending on which side you choose. Brilliant. Though has it downfalls.
GREAT game and playing it first will enhance the TW3 experience. :) I plan on playing it again this year and then TW3 again. Do you think they will remaster or upgrade TW2 on a next gen engine? Hope so.
I played Witcher 2 a couple months ago a second time. First played it when it first came out and the game is still good. Might do another playthrough 10 years from now.
Just bought an Xbox Series S a couple of weeks ago and found out not only could I finally play another Witcher game (only the Witcher 3 was on PlayStation), but the Witcher 2 is on sale for only $2.99. I haven’t even started the game yet and I feel like I’ve stolen it.
personally i can play all 3 Witcher games now but for most people The Witcher 2 should be easily played it is still good looking game and all witcher games have interesting main and side stories
Geralt : So...you killed two kings, stirred up a scoiatel revolution, disrupted a peace summit & plunged two ambitious kings into war - And I'm just supposed to let you go, WHY? Letho : Ummm....because I saved your girlfriend & didn't break the bro code while you were MIA? Geralt : Makes sense, you are free to go.
Loved the first witcher game the more I played. Wasn't a huge fan at first, but it really picks up and the ending is just great, and the witcher 2 is even better.
I kinda prefer this game to 3. Though I've not done everything in the game so that may change. I just prefer the combat and I actually felt like I knew what I was supposed to be doing. Though that also may just stem from me not liking open world games that much.
I love TW2 despite the Kayran, despite the awful alchemy system (not brewing potions or oils but applying them in context with cutscenes, either skip the cutscenes or run out of your potions before the fight even starts), despite the combat (I really liked TW1 combat, though I only played the prologue once. I haven't played the full game yet because I can't get audio - no music, no ambiance, no dialogues), because its story is (or rather two stories are) so good. Whereas TW1 was gathering the mood of the short stories, TW2 was the continuation of the political plotline of the Ciri novels and TW3 told the more personal story of a family of 3 (Ciri, Geralt, Yen). I still prefer TW3 as I'm not a very profound player (call me a noob and I won't be offended), which didn't have such sparks in difficulty as TW2 with the Kayran and the Draugr. The game is very well playable and enjoyable in 2021. It doesn't look like a game of two console generations ago. If it wasn't for TW3 as a comparison, it could have come out in 2019 and still nobody would say its graphics were bad. The story is well grounded in the lore but it even works without any prior knowledge of the world of The Witcher. And the music, ah the music, it's so beautiful. I love all the soundtracks of games, they are the only game soundtracks I can listen to in an endless loop. With most other games, there are a few tracks that are great. Then there are a few that work perfectly inside the game but on their own, they are unpleasant or boring to listen to. But not so with The Witcher (including Thronebreaker) music. TW2 is still a recommendation. And TW1 should get a remake for modern machines.
@@tarron3237 Yes, the alchemy system of TW1 was the best of the three games as it made the most sense (for me anyway as one of my majors in high school was chemistry). Even closer to actual chemistry is the alchemy system of Kingdom Come Deliverance, it's as tedious as actual chemistry work in a lab.
All 3 Witcher games are AMAZING. 1 started my LOVE for this world, setting, characters etc. 2 Solidified and elevated that love and 3 CEMENTED it so much I went and bought all the books. Favorite RPG series ever.
So I never got to play witcher 2 or 3. At the time of the releases I was a full on online multiplayer simp. And lost all interest in single player games. After waiting season 1 on netflix I was intrigued, so I went away and read some of the books. And now I have picked both games up for my series x for under 10pounds with boxing day sales online so cheap. I cannot wait to get into both titles as I've got older my focus has left multiplayer and fallen back to playing amazing single player titles which these days are few and far between I really hope witcher 2 and 3 hold up to the hype as I found cyberpunk lacking.
I Played 1. I have never played 2 or 3, but have both games. I've watched the Netflix show. I really want to start playing Witcher 3 due to all the great reviews. Should I go chronological and play Witcher 2 first and then 3 or can I play 3 and go back to 2?
Despite the combat in witcher 1 my favourite part of the game is how conclusive each chapter feels by forcing you to talk to most people in the area before progressing to next chapter making to you feel made the most of the section and by also paying off your hard work like having the witch sub-plot have the people in the outskirts of vizima all team up and blame the curse on the witch while geralt is forced to resolve this to get a pass or the Raymond investigation from chapter 2 . Although loved almost every aspect of the witcher 2 I can't help but feel a little empty when leaving flotsam only to realise majority of this games contact was optional whereas witcher 1 side quest were simply contracts rewarding the player for studying and hunting monsters.
Dude I played 3 first and I love it best game I've ever played . So I bought the second game and tried playing it on 2 separate occasions and I just can't. It's so boring and not fun. The map is no help so your always lost trying to do any side quests quests the game isn't really open world so you hit invisible walls alot. It's just completely different feeling and look. Everything looks grainy and grey and it's simply not fun to me. It's nothing like the 3rd game. Everyone leaving these glowing comments are looking at the game thru rose tinted glasses for whatever reasons but honestly if a games isn't fun to play it's not worth your time regardless of your love for the lore. Sorry much love to cdpr
@@Drawnartist The people giving these "glowing comments" are witcher fans. We agree that it isn't as open as Witcher 3.. but the story is still good. Its worth playing. I'm assuming you got to the Kayran and got bored. It is common to get annoyed at the Kayran part. But to me once you leave flotsam the game is brilliant. The only problem I have with it, is that it's way too short. You don't want to rush through the main quests. Do as many side quests as you can before leaving an area.
Big fan Witcher 3 and dlc waiting on the upgrade and new Witcher but never played these so will give them a go and try get as much story while I wait for. The new witcher
Just grabbed this for a whole three bucks, lol. Never knew they had this on console. Loved 3 more than any other game. Definitely jumped to play this. I’m impressed. It held up pretty well and the story is great. Not as smooth as 3 but that’s to be expected. Definitely a must play especially with the Witcher 3 remake on the way.
Great game, had a solid 60 hours playtime. A major improvement from the first game in terms of narration and gameplay. However, the settlements in this game are really depressing. - A shitty port town deep in the jungle - A besieged mountain city where dwarves live in holes - A goddamn military camp - A frickin ruin in the swamp
Playing through W2 for the first time since I played it on the Xbox 360 back in 2012. Playing with QoL mods makes the game feel like a more modern game. While I think W3 is the overall much better game, W2 is still amazing. I really wish W3 had those boss battles like the 2nd one did.
This game is so freaking good. Some of why is obvious but there’s also just something about the presentation of this game that is so amazing, it sucks me in and never lets up. I absolutely love this game
I wish Witcher 1 and 2 can come out on ps4 or ps5. I dont even need a remake/remaster with enhanced graphic. I’ll take it the way it was released if it meant getting released. I don’t have a gaming PC and only want to play on my big screen.
Glad I was able to get the witcher 2 on my xbox one s on sale 85% off $19.99 I paid $2.99 since it’s not available on playstation. I have the witcher 3 wild hunt complete edition on my PS5 the witcher 3 is my first gaming experience of the franchise.🥂😉
In terms of gameplay I actually like TW2 the least: the combat, UI, and potion mechanics are so janky. For those reasons I do not get the urge to replay the game. I'd sooner replay TW1 (the soundtrack on that one is soo nostalgic, the atmosphere of the Outskirts of Vizima and Act 4). Hell, I admit I even went through TW2 on easy mode cos I had such a hard time adjusting. That being said, I fully praise TW2 for it's story, the characters, the divergent plotlines. The dark, unrelenting atmosphere of cruelty and loss really had me, the backroom manipulation of events by the Sorceresses, the ominous set-up of Nilfgaard and the Wild Hunt, Roche and Zoltan's story arcs, King Henselt was great. The side quests were in-depth and made the most of the lore and surrounding story events. Personally, I've only played the Roche path. If I ever was to play it again I'd choose Iorveth.
Witcher 3 buit on success od witcher 2 and wonder what can cdpr build next with success of witcher 3. I mean outside cuberpunk, mobile games, card games, anime etc etc.
Bought the game years ago and never got around to it. Watching the series and loving the world. Might be time I finally do it now that I at least have some idea of what's going on.
Yeah, W2 is great because it goes a lot into character exploration and it's focused around kingdoms fighting each other as well as showing scoiatel and general war of humans and nonhumans, highly recommend it.
I still think some of the graphics are better than in 3. I couldn’t finish the game on the Xbox because of the jank in the controls which are so common in pc 3rd person action games. Yes it’s an rpg but it plays like an action game. I sort of liked the combat better in 2 than 3 but the jank was way high
I bought the game on my Mac and unfortunately, I saw after that my OS version was too "high" for the game --' do you know if it's possible to still play the game by doing some manipulation maybe ?

Short answer: Yes!
Long answer: play it twice to see both paths for Roche and Iorveth. :D
AGREE! :D
I create a manual save just before making the decision so I can come back and play the other path
eeexactly. I played it 3 times, 1st roche, 2. Iorveth and then enhanced edition came, so I played iorveth again :D
Yes, it is a good game, cheap right now, and it somewhat helps you better understand the characters in TW3. For example, when you play TW3, there will be a scene where you are being cleaned and asked to answer questions about Geralt's past. If you did not play TW2, you will have no idea wtf these questions are asking lol. Also, you will know more about important characters such as Triss Merigold and Vernon Roche
Not just that, there is also Letho, Sciatel destruction, Foltest fall, lodge destroyed, and some other stories. For more info for the rest of characters and lore books are important!
To be fair, though, you only get asked these questions in W3 only if you choose to simulate a W2 save, you won't if you choose not to.
That said, though, the lore in W2 gives context to a lot of things in W3, and the game itself is amazing, so definitely worth a play
@@khaledassaf6356 i play it on the switch now and Just had the letho mission. I got asked the questions :)

@Englishman 🏴 Oh, sorry about that. When I made this comment, the game was being sold for 4 dollars USD on Steam lol.
It’s an amazing game, even in 2021. You find out a lot about the events which lead to Witcher 3 and about some of the important characters. Story is very interesting too. In short, you absolutely f*cking should.

W2 was about the Witcher world. The politics, the scheeming, the shape of the land. Some like that macro stuff better than the micro.
W1 managed to balance the two relatively well story-wise, owing a lot to the fact that they chose to give Geralt a clean slate and not fill any blanks.
The Witcher 2 is a masterpiece. The writing is one of best I have seen in fiction that just gets better as the story progresses. Love the politics with the northern realms and how the game has such a dark and unforgiving atmosphere.
One of my favourite games ever. I love how much it focuses on the Northern Kingdoms and their monarchs compared to the Witcher 3 which over simplified the politics for new comers.
I’m actually playing through The Witcher 2 on PC right now, and then I saw this video pop up in my subscription notifications.
Samee
Playing TW2 on PC too.And found this on my recommendation
Yes, I've been replaying this over the last month and love it, still looks so good too
you god damn right
I know this may be impossible but in the future like mass effect legendary edition, imagine CDPR make 1 game by integrating the witcher 1, 2 and 3 with the DLCs integrated into 1 map (I would assume the game would cost around $70) with witcher 1 and 2 being remade/remastered to look like an updated version of the witcher 3
But after cyberpunk 2077 they won't get a penny from me
I'm just sad that witcher 2 has no gay romance options
@@carlisclosetedphgt3666 might want to change your name.
@@carlisclosetedphgt3666 But Geralt isn't gay in the books or in the games, so having a gay romance option doesn't make a whole lot of sense in the context of the lore. I get it's an RPG, but it isn't meant to be a "play Geralt however you want" kind of roleplay, they force you to play Geralt however you want within the range of his existing personality/philosophical view of the world/history.
@@bassomitron If people want a gay romance option it would be while playing as Ciri since she is already bisexual. Honestly would’ve been plausible to have the option of romancing Skjall’s sister or something especially since you already have the option to tell her you prefer girls and her tattoo is mentioned.
When I first played TW2 it completely blew me away and it still belongs to my alltime favourite games. The only thing that annoyed me about the game was the Kayran :). But apart from that the game has really aged well.
Why did the kayran annoy you?
@@devnath963 because that thing was hard
Loved it a lot, played it twice, first with Iorveth then with Roche. That "Dwarven Stone upon Dwarven stone" song in Vergen made me just stop in the middle of the street and listen to the music. It is a great game.
Yes it is. I love storyline in this one. Also Letho is very cool character, super jacked but at the same time very intelligent.
Of course, it is an outstanding game.
Just got it on sale for $3 I loved the witcher 3 and I have always wanted to play 2 definitely can’t wait to play it
Yes ! When TW3 came out, I liked it. Then I replayed TW2 again and I remembered how much I love this game and how it blew my mind when I first played it. To me it's better than TW3
No
@@Drawnartist That wasn't a question
no
I actually played TW1 short after its release (and loved it) so when TW2 came out I was so excited. The step up from the first game, especially graphic and gameplay wise but also the story was something else. I love TW2 as much as I love TW3. TW2 is still a highly recommended game.
for me the flotsam tavern soundtrack is the best in the entire series, gives me nostalgia and reminds me of good times :')
I played this in 2021 and couldn't believe how well it holds up. I played it on the xbox one x and it's enhanced and looks really great. The choices you have to make are fantastic. At least 3 times I had to put the controller down and stop and think "OMG what I am going to do". In addition the world feels really genuine and alive. The civilians are in the bar or on the streets chatting about world events or local events. It's all in context. The civilians have relevant animations. It makes the world believable, immersive and engaging. After playing Witcher 2 all the way through, I immediately started playing again to make different choices. These totally affect the story and what missions you do. I love choice and consequence like this as it makes the game YOUR story. In terms of the game world and choice it's pretty hard to believe that the same developers created Cyberpunk.
BUT I would NOT recommend Witcher 1. That game still crashes frequently, is frustrating as hell, wastes your time going backwards and forwards again and again and although it's nice to get acquainted with the Witcher world, there is not much relevant story that relates to subsequent games in my opinion. You mostly just learn what a Witcher is and how they operate. You meet some of the main Witcher characters but you don't learn much about them. The focus on making great characters comes in Witcher 2 and all future games including Cyberpunk. They are world class at making memorable characters.
Witcher 1 is really good and better than Witcher 3 in many ways and also cyberpunk sucks dog shit
Just finished it, loved every second of it.
As much as I absolutely love TW3, I think I enjoyed TW2 more. There’re a few reasons for this but mostly I was able to get more immersed in TW2 probably because it being more linear and kept the story flowing better than TW3.
I played it twice, the first time I wasn’t able to get into it because there’s a lot of lore going on. The second time I forced myself to really get into the world and I absolutely fell in love with everything Witcher lol
Witcher 2 stayed in the shadow of Skyrim, even though it was the better game in terms of story, characters and graphics.
Yeah but it was linear game with much less playtime. Thats why it was in shadow.
I always cringe and get a bit frustrated with people who compare the Witcher games to Bethesda's games. They're completely different types of game. The Witcher games are story-driven "RPGlites" (a term I use, inspired by "roguelite") and the third game integrated some open world sandbox fun into the mix. Meanwhile, Bethesda's games have always been sandbox games where freedom and the ability to live another life in another world is the key point to the game. I love both, though I prefer Bethesda's style overall.
I don't believe that it was so much that this game stayed in Skyrim's shadow. I vividly remember people talking about this back then as a masterpiece of a story-driven adventure/RPG game. It didn't receive a huge amount of recognition because, at that point, the franchise was still relatively niche and the narrative RPG fans were more focused on games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. I've always said, even back when I was still skeptical of CDPR and the Witcher franchise (which was stupid, in hindsight), that I felt like Dragon Age was a lot closer of a comparison for these games than Bethesda's games are.
@TheIneptFox you must have terrible taste in games then
@TheIneptFox Everyone is entitled to their opinion but let's at least be fair: it was not a "kids' RPG". It had every definining core trait of an RPG. Every TES game excluding the 90s spinoff, Redguard, meets every core traits of an RPG.
@TheIneptFox That's not a fair comparison, though. PoE/Divinity/BG, those are all narrative-driven tactical RPGs. They have a specific way they play. Skyrim is a sandbox RPG; its very nature allows people to play it however they want. Ergo, kids will find it a lot easier to play that kind of RPG because they can play it how they want to play it.
I still love this game and I'll make two comments not made here. The first being it came out on PC first then got a remaster for Xbox 360 and PC, the second it has real feeling and heart which I think The Witcher 3 lacks a bit of, but not completely of course. They put a lot of soul into The Witcher 2 so it shows they cared greatly about what they wanted to do, I hope the next Witcher game proves they still have it.
i quite agree with you on the "heart and feeling" regard of witcher 3. but not witcher 2.
If I wasnt for the xbox 360 version of Witcher 2, I'd never have gotten into the series. So good
Same. A friend of mine introduced me to the first on PC. I thought it looked shit but the story of Witchers sounded great.
I'd say lot of what earned CDPR their credit was ability to listen and actually react.
I had W2 in preorder and in polish, so basically 2 weeks before official premiere. I didn't work at all.
Then was the issue of horrible fighting style, lackluster signs and alchemy influencing close to nothing.
Also the final act that was like half of something.
But they listened.
W1 was what we consider now a kickstarter project, with its issues and lot of hard work.
W2 was ambitious as hell and for me- it was playable (enjoyably) like 2-3 months after launch. Same with W3...
This reminds me most ambicious of their projects, the CP2077...
Each time they brought what they could best and then improved it.
Just picked this up for $3 on the Microsoft Store (playing on Series S), Stoked 🔥👍🔥
Same , diving in today
Me to just bought it a few hours ago. Also playing on series s
Where did you have it for $3?
I paid $25 in Polish region.
@@DanielDseven on normal price I think it’s 20 US dollars digitally. But I got it when it was on sale for 3 dollars on the Xbox store.
@@dustingonzalez8080
Nice. I've been waiting for a sale for last few months, I was tired of waiting and got it full price today. I do not regret though
One of the most underrated games of all time. Amazing, dark story with decisions that really matters, beautiful graphic that still holds up and all of it You can buy for something like 1$... In some ways this game is better than the Wild Hunt. If CDP R was like EA, they could easily make remaster with better textures an charche 30$ for it.
It's free on Torrent.
picked up the enhanced edition for 360 for $8 at a book store. I can't wait to play
Asides from Graphics and Combat I think this game was a major step back from 1.
I just recently played it like 2 weeks ago and i found the main story more interesting than the witcher 3 base game story😮🤘
Disagree I cant even finish the second game and I've played 3rd game twice maybe if I'd startd with second game but it's just not fun to me for many reasons that I dont feel like explaining probably for no reason
I'm the type of person that keeps older game consoles and my favorite games for those consoles. And The Witcher 2 is one of my most cherished Xbox 360 games overall. (I would consider it a Must Have for the 360)
I watched this vid when you dropped it, and it inspired me to play Witcher 2. I played it and damn, I wish I played it before Witcher 3. Not that I didn’t love TW3 (150+ hrs in that) but I would have had a much bette rides what was happening off the bat.
I’ve now beaten TW2 twice, and can’t wait for the TW3 Complete edition.
Replaying the Witcher 3 on pc for the first time with hd rework, ghost mode, various combat and weather/ music mods and I’m truly amazed with how well it holds up today. When I finish I’m gonna replay Witcher 2 for nostalgia factor!
I am playing The Witcher EE and it's one amazing game. The UI and QoL lacks, but the rest is absolutely amazing.
tl;dr YES!!! Game's amazing! In some ways, it's even better than W3
I remember this game well. A couple weeks before it released I saw the cutscene of Iorveth and Letho meeting in the cave and immediately knew I had to play this day one! Silly me, those kinds of scenes are usually 100% CGI and just give false hope... but The Witcher 2 actually delivered an amazing looking game an introduced me to an amazing new world (and book series).
I happily played on my small laptop on lowest settings at like 20fps until I eagerly bought and put together a proper gaming PC... parts of which I'm still using today!
The game was brutally difficult at first but they must have toned it down a notch with some patches because I swear I died like 50+ times before I got to Flotsam my first time, but then playing it later was as piece of cake by comparison (that fire boss was always a pain though...).
Definitely a must play for anyone who wants extra context for Witcher 3, or just wants more time with Triss, Dandelion, Zoltan and the gang!
The first time I played this game (after witcher 3), I genuinely felt so overwhelmed by what had happened in such a small space of time I had no idea what the story was about. Probably because Witcher 3 is much less linear and padded out and longer, this game is very linear in comparison and packs a very dense narrative.
The more I play it, the better it gets. I’m on another play through atm, and chapter 1 has been maybe my favourite part of the game. Iorveths chapter 2 is wicked, and I wanna play again as it’s been years since I’ve gone through roches path. It’s an amazing game and sets up the 3rd game very well.
Oh yeah absolutely !! What a beautiful game and the story is really good. Also there is a wildly known reputation about its mechanic and the fighting being so hard (almost dark souls like), it really isn’t and it’s actually good and quite smooth, not as smooth as TW3, but if you get used to it it’s really rewarding and good!
Unbelievable, Dracula has a youtube video!
My biggest complaint with the Witcher 3 is the lack of interaction with npc, u can't really talk to anyone and they just walk around. Still an amazing game tho
Love all three Witcher games. Remember playing the first one and was totally blown away by the setting...
Cant wait to play this game! Its already installed on my pc but currently playing witcher1 on act3..
Im about to start this game. Should I do the side quests or can I just play the main story. I've read it might be beneficial to set easy mode, and do main storyline only. Thanks.
As someone, that only recently started playing the Witcher games for the first time, I can see that the W2 story and the way it tells that story is good. Graphics wise it still holds up, but mechanically it is very old and very clunky, GUI and inventory system is not very intuitive. Alchemy is also a bit of a mixed bag, but makes sense from a lore perspective.
So if you can stick with the clunkiness of the game you are in for a really good story.
I was told about the Witcher from a friend while we where playing ESO and they said I would like it then I saw that 3 was on game pass so I loaded it up started playing and then the game asked if I wanted to use my choices from the 2nd game so naturally I bought the 2nd after few hours of playing 3 and learning a little about the characters and their impact of the story so I deleted my game saves and played all the way through 2
I'm playing and loving it! My old PC could not take it, for that reason I had to wait until I buy a more powerful. Actually I was eager to play the 3 so much I played before 2 but without problems, although the graphics are not the same I'm enjoying the same way! 🤩
Bought the witcher 1 & 2 on GoG but will get a gaming PC for better power and for my future art videos. 😁
Thx
Same
I started playing, but haven’t finished it yet. How did Geralt get a beard in that cutscene!?
Get ya the High Texture pack, the Extreme Vegetation pack and the Vergen grass fix and you're good. Heck, even vanilla the game holds up. I really love the unique 2 part nature of the game. You truly can't see the entire game the first playthrough. You literally miss the entire center half of the game depending on which side you choose. Brilliant. Though has it downfalls.
GREAT game and playing it first will enhance the TW3 experience. :) I plan on playing it again this year and then TW3 again. Do you think they will remaster or upgrade TW2 on a next gen engine? Hope so.
I played Witcher 2 a couple months ago a second time. First played it when it first came out and the game is still good. Might do another playthrough 10 years from now.
Just bought an Xbox Series S a couple of weeks ago and found out not only could I finally play another Witcher game (only the Witcher 3 was on PlayStation), but the Witcher 2 is on sale for only $2.99. I haven’t even started the game yet and I feel like I’ve stolen it.
personally i can play all 3 Witcher games now but for most people The Witcher 2 should be easily played it is still good looking game and all witcher games have interesting main and side stories
Geralt : So...you killed two kings, stirred up a scoiatel revolution, disrupted a peace summit & plunged two ambitious kings into war - And I'm just supposed to let you go, WHY?
Letho : Ummm....because I saved your girlfriend & didn't break the bro code while you were MIA?
Geralt : Makes sense, you are free to go.
I literally just re-installed this game....love it. Gonna start the Witcher series over again ! Love ❤️ em !
The atmosphere in this game is unparralelled.
Not even close to Witcher 1
Loved the first witcher game the more I played. Wasn't a huge fan at first, but it really picks up and the ending is just great, and the witcher 2 is even better.
Just bought the complete edition for 3 bucks. Gonna play it with FCR2 mod as it's been recommended to help with the combat jank. Excited to play it.
I kinda prefer this game to 3. Though I've not done everything in the game so that may change. I just prefer the combat and I actually felt like I knew what I was supposed to be doing. Though that also may just stem from me not liking open world games that much.
I love TW2 despite the Kayran, despite the awful alchemy system (not brewing potions or oils but applying them in context with cutscenes, either skip the cutscenes or run out of your potions before the fight even starts), despite the combat (I really liked TW1 combat, though I only played the prologue once. I haven't played the full game yet because I can't get audio - no music, no ambiance, no dialogues), because its story is (or rather two stories are) so good. Whereas TW1 was gathering the mood of the short stories, TW2 was the continuation of the political plotline of the Ciri novels and TW3 told the more personal story of a family of 3 (Ciri, Geralt, Yen). I still prefer TW3 as I'm not a very profound player (call me a noob and I won't be offended), which didn't have such sparks in difficulty as TW2 with the Kayran and the Draugr.
The game is very well playable and enjoyable in 2021. It doesn't look like a game of two console generations ago. If it wasn't for TW3 as a comparison, it could have come out in 2019 and still nobody would say its graphics were bad. The story is well grounded in the lore but it even works without any prior knowledge of the world of The Witcher. And the music, ah the music, it's so beautiful. I love all the soundtracks of games, they are the only game soundtracks I can listen to in an endless loop. With most other games, there are a few tracks that are great. Then there are a few that work perfectly inside the game but on their own, they are unpleasant or boring to listen to. But not so with The Witcher (including Thronebreaker) music.
TW2 is still a recommendation. And TW1 should get a remake for modern machines.
Just finished TW1 EE with mods, and yes, a modern remake would be nice. But I could enjoy it anyways.
I liked the alchemy a lot.
@@tarron3237 Yes, the alchemy system of TW1 was the best of the three games as it made the most sense (for me anyway as one of my majors in high school was chemistry). Even closer to actual chemistry is the alchemy system of Kingdom Come Deliverance, it's as tedious as actual chemistry work in a lab.
I bought witcher 1 and 2 a couple days ago and cant wait to finally play them, if i got the time for them!
All 3 Witcher games are AMAZING. 1 started my LOVE for this world, setting, characters etc. 2 Solidified and elevated that love and 3 CEMENTED it so much I went and bought all the books. Favorite RPG series ever.
So I never got to play witcher 2 or 3. At the time of the releases I was a full on online multiplayer simp. And lost all interest in single player games. After waiting season 1 on netflix I was intrigued, so I went away and read some of the books. And now I have picked both games up for my series x for under 10pounds with boxing day sales online so cheap. I cannot wait to get into both titles as I've got older my focus has left multiplayer and fallen back to playing amazing single player titles which these days are few and far between I really hope witcher 2 and 3 hold up to the hype as I found cyberpunk lacking.
I'm surprised to see how similar it looks to 3. Not sure why I've always overlooked this game but I'll definitely be checking it out now.
I Played 1. I have never played 2 or 3, but have both games. I've watched the Netflix show. I really want to start playing Witcher 3 due to all the great reviews. Should I go chronological and play Witcher 2 first and then 3 or can I play 3 and go back to 2?
I would go with the second then third but it's not mandatory
Despite the combat in witcher 1 my favourite part of the game is how conclusive each chapter feels by forcing you to talk to most people in the area before progressing to next chapter making to you feel made the most of the section and by also paying off your hard work like having the witch sub-plot have the people in the outskirts of vizima all team up and blame the curse on the witch while geralt is forced to resolve this to get a pass or the Raymond investigation from chapter 2 . Although loved almost every aspect of the witcher 2 I can't help but feel a little empty when leaving flotsam only to realise majority of this games contact was optional whereas witcher 1 side quest were simply contracts rewarding the player for studying and hunting monsters.
Should You Play The Witcher 2 in 2021? OFCOURSE YOU SHOULD! THAT'S NOT EVEN A PROPER QUESTION.
Don't stress yourself over a SEO friendly title lol
Gee, thx for reminding me that I'd wanted to play this again to check out the second route. Not like I already have enough of a backlog to play ;)
Yes, you should even play Witcher 1 to export your saves and get great little details that you wouldnt playing W2 alone
Ive only played the third game and absolutely loved it. Thinking about playing W2 now. But can you disable the screen shake when you hit an enemy?
Dude I played 3 first and I love it best game I've ever played . So I bought the second game and tried playing it on 2 separate occasions and I just can't. It's so boring and not fun. The map is no help so your always lost trying to do any side quests quests the game isn't really open world so you hit invisible walls alot. It's just completely different feeling and look. Everything looks grainy and grey and it's simply not fun to me. It's nothing like the 3rd game. Everyone leaving these glowing comments are looking at the game thru rose tinted glasses for whatever reasons but honestly if a games isn't fun to play it's not worth your time regardless of your love for the lore. Sorry much love to cdpr
@@Drawnartist The people giving these "glowing comments" are witcher fans.
We agree that it isn't as open as Witcher 3.. but the story is still good.
Its worth playing.
I'm assuming you got to the Kayran and got bored. It is common to get annoyed at the Kayran part.
But to me once you leave flotsam the game is brilliant.
The only problem I have with it, is that it's way too short. You don't want to rush through the main quests. Do as many side quests as you can before leaving an area.
Big fan Witcher 3 and dlc waiting on the upgrade and new Witcher but never played these so will give them a go and try get as much story while I wait for. The new witcher
Just grabbed this for a whole three bucks, lol. Never knew they had this on console. Loved 3 more than any other game. Definitely jumped to play this. I’m impressed. It held up pretty well and the story is great. Not as smooth as 3 but that’s to be expected. Definitely a must play especially with the Witcher 3 remake on the way.
Great game, had a solid 60 hours playtime. A major improvement from the first game in terms of narration and gameplay.
However, the settlements in this game are really depressing.
- A shitty port town deep in the jungle
- A besieged mountain city where dwarves live in holes
- A goddamn military camp
- A frickin ruin in the swamp
Should I? I already do I own a xbox360 and don’t plan to upgrade way too many great games
Just finished The Witcher 1 in 2022 and had a lot of fun. Mods included.
So the second part should also be worthwhile.
Playing through W2 for the first time since I played it on the Xbox 360 back in 2012. Playing with QoL mods makes the game feel like a more modern game. While I think W3 is the overall much better game, W2 is still amazing. I really wish W3 had those boss battles like the 2nd one did.
And the OST 😍 it's currently the only CD in my car
Cringe af
This game is so freaking good. Some of why is obvious but there’s also just something about the presentation of this game that is so amazing, it sucks me in and never lets up. I absolutely love this game
It's very cheap when it's in sale so why not? It didn't age too well gameplay wise but to you get a good RPG.
loved this video! and i agree, this game is still SO good
Well 2021 is almost over for me, so.. Should I play The Witcher 2 in 2022????
I wish Witcher 1 and 2 can come out on ps4 or ps5. I dont even need a remake/remaster with enhanced graphic. I’ll take it the way it was released if it meant getting released. I don’t have a gaming PC and only want to play on my big screen.
Glad I was able to get the witcher 2 on my xbox one s on sale 85% off $19.99 I paid $2.99 since it’s not available on playstation. I have the witcher 3 wild hunt complete edition on my PS5 the witcher 3 is my first gaming experience of the franchise.🥂😉
I want the witcher 1&2 as remaster for kexr gen console…
In terms of gameplay I actually like TW2 the least: the combat, UI, and potion mechanics are so janky. For those reasons I do not get the urge to replay the game. I'd sooner replay TW1 (the soundtrack on that one is soo nostalgic, the atmosphere of the Outskirts of Vizima and Act 4). Hell, I admit I even went through TW2 on easy mode cos I had such a hard time adjusting.
That being said, I fully praise TW2 for it's story, the characters, the divergent plotlines. The dark, unrelenting atmosphere of cruelty and loss really had me, the backroom manipulation of events by the Sorceresses, the ominous set-up of Nilfgaard and the Wild Hunt, Roche and Zoltan's story arcs, King Henselt was great. The side quests were in-depth and made the most of the lore and surrounding story events.
Personally, I've only played the Roche path. If I ever was to play it again I'd choose Iorveth.
Witcher 3 buit on success od witcher 2 and wonder what can cdpr build next with success of witcher 3. I mean outside cuberpunk, mobile games, card games, anime etc etc.
I have this downloaded on my xbox 360, pretty awesome for that console
This game is $2.99 usd right now on xbox!!
Bought the game years ago and never got around to it. Watching the series and loving the world. Might be time I finally do it now that I at least have some idea of what's going on.
Yeah, W2 is great because it goes a lot into character exploration and it's focused around kingdoms fighting each other as well as showing scoiatel and general war of humans and nonhumans, highly recommend it.
@@LastKnownMeal nice. Will probably play it after I finish Eastward!
The hardest part of Witcher 2 was the map and trying to find out where you got to go
It’s good, but hard for me. I’m not too good at games. Finding certain quests on there are even hard for me lll.
I still think some of the graphics are better than in 3. I couldn’t finish the game on the Xbox because of the jank in the controls which are so common in pc 3rd person action games. Yes it’s an rpg but it plays like an action game. I sort of liked the combat better in 2 than 3 but the jank was way high
How's the combat?
Really wish they would remake Witcher 1 and remaster 2...I would like to play a young Geralt of Rivia with updated graphics !
Dope asf enjoying every minute
I bought the game on my Mac and unfortunately, I saw after that my OS version was too "high" for the game --' do you know if it's possible to still play the game by doing some manipulation maybe ?
I luv this game :)
I have the collectors edition, its a beauty!
The Xbox store had it on sale for $3 last week. Hell of a deal.
This game goes for superrrr cheap on gog and cdkeys def worth the few dollars
