Letho is my favorite character in the series. He pretended to be dumbass around the sorceresses so he can gather information and use them to achieve his goals. He basically played everyone in TW2. Badass, self-aware, and very cunning.

He was very cunning except for the fact that his entire motivation was that Emhyr promised to rebuild the school of the Viper. He seemed to naively believe they'd actually do that and not just use him as as a disposable assassin, and then had no contingency plans for when Nilfgaard inevitably betrayed him. It's my one gripe with how they wrote him TW2.

Narratively and aesthetically this is my favorite game in the series, the fact that the game pushes you early to make the biggest decision is something I rarely if ever see in other RPGs who like to pussyfoot around and are afraid to deny the player of content based on their choices, then again SDPR were an AA studio at best at the time so they did take more risks. Visually this game have the best looking armors and swords in all of the games, wish they kept this style instead of the boring more realistic armors in TW3. Gameplay wise the game is a mess but I don't hold it against it.
@ideal9544
@ideal9544 Год назад
I somewhat agree with your point about the armor sets. I think that in this game they were tailor made for Geralt's "style" (at least the way CDPR envisioned him). However I feel that in TW3 they also did a fantastic job at showcasing other styles and every school had a different feel that really fit in to its lore. I think they should've made more signature, witcher armor sets, and maybe add the ability to customize pauldrons, hoods, chest pieces etc. to regular armor sets, that way it feels like Geralt is customizing the armor to suit his style and preference, which is what he would actually do in the books.

51 minutes? Don't mind if I do! It's my 2nd favorite Witcher game, only because Yennefer is not in it. Otherwise the fact that they managed to do such a fantastic job within the span of 3 years (from Witcher 1) is astounding. I managed to clear all the achievements except Insane, because the chances me of dying in Act II at the beginning were extremly high and the hitboxes were wonky so I gave up on it (I did do 1 run and died at that part and didn't want to redo it). Thanks for the review Mort!

i absolutely love games separated to acts. It promotes you moving forward to a new places and to progress the story with it rather then letting you get lost in the same sidecontents on a vast map. Its why I felt connected to w2 story and finished it at least 10 times.(usually different endings but couple were definitely the same as i enjoyed that) The combat is janky but light years apart from the 1st game and can be mastered to eliminate as much junk as possible Still most of it is just hitting the same button. Lots of talking but the dialogue is great and voiceacted nicely and all. And characteres are not 1dimensional. As much as I love tw3, second game is just far superior to me
@nickgotvyak5890
@nickgotvyak5890 9 месяцев назад
I disagree a little bit on promoting. It depends on the balance, but usually with acts you have to engage with all side content in the act to progress to the next one, because next act has a significant difficulty spike. Especially larian titles like DOS2 and BG3 are guilty of that (twice especially dos 2 - jump from nameless isle to arx is ridiculous when you enter a location with lvl 17-18 and all enemies are 19-20)

i had a sudden interest in the witcher games back in february, and your review on the witcher 1 got me excited enough to buy it and finish it within like 2 weeks i believe. i then subsequently bought this game and knocked it out within a month, and i have to agree with a lot of your points here. the characters and story were very engrossing and were probably my favorite parts of the game as well. i bought the witcher 3 a week ago and im playing it here and there, and i guess the reason im saying all this is i just wanted to thank you for introducing me, and many others, to a series that ive always been cautious toward for no particular reason; i probably never wouldve played the first game had i not seen your review of it, and TW1 was a really enjoyable rpg for me. i always look forward to your videos and i can tell you enjoy making them 🙂

Iorveth vs Roche was a difficult and fun choice on par with Stormcloaks VS Empire decision. And loved each path for different reasons! Definetly prefer Iorveths path characters and areas more overall. But I like to imagine the default or canon Geralt would prolly lean towards Roche as he is generally a man of his word that wont easily abandon his current quest.
@TheKolboShow
@TheKolboShow Год назад
My counterpoint is that Geralt is an honest and honorable type of guy, and he wouldn't betray Iorveth after he just put a *lot* of trust in him. Which you kinda have to do in order to side with Roche. He might initially prefer Roche, but would accidentally end up with Iorveth due to circumstance and his own values. But that's just my personal take after having read the books

Still my favourite Witcher game and one of my favs of all time. W3 was amazing, B&W had the best atmosphere, but in some ways it was too big, sprawling, lost some of its soul in some random alleys. W2 is like a good book, it's well paced (rare in games) and there's not a lot of superfluous content. I felt invested, immersed, motivated to do each quest as part of the story, it didn't feel like a checklist. Loved alchemy! Requires a bit of preparation and foresight, but I didn't find it frustrating at all. You almost always know what enemies you'll be facing as part of a quest, and you can anticipate the big battles (riot being planned? Epic battle ahead? Events building to a crescendo? maybe get ready for combat!?). Makes you feel a bit more intelligent and calculating, less of a superman.

One thing that bothered me is how small the areas you explore are. Like the forest around the town in Act I or the area around Henselt's camp in Act II. I feel like the game uses scale and atmospheric perspective/fog to make you feel like the areas are huge and open. But when you actually start moving through (especially after you remove roadblocks like certain monsters) they are actually really tiny and not very open at all. I wonder if it was a limitation of the engine, or maybe designed with console memory limits in mind. Kind of makes me think of something like Skyrim and how a (supposedly) huge city has maybe 12 buildings in total.

Witcher 2 is kind of like Alpha Protocol in a way. The story, characters, and overall writing is great. The game features actual choices and consequences with the plot massively diverging into separates paths depending on who you side with. But the gameplay is just not all that good and there's some incredibly baffling design choices. Witcher 3 is an overall better game, but I think Witcher 2 has much better writing.

A remake should have been released by now! I can’t believe it hasn’t been done by CD Project red. They took 2 more years to complete Cyberpunk 2077 and with a game with so much driving the driving still should have been way better! Why havnt some resources been invested into this given it will sell great!

I fell in love with The Witcher series when I accidentally stumbled on it when it first came out. Shame on Atari marketing for that. It was great to see how each game was progressively better than the last. For me this series is only rivalled by the Mass Effect series, but eclipses it by having a much better 3rd installment in terms of gameplay, story and - of course - ending. You are almost compelled to play through Witcher 2 twice given how different the split storyline is, and how much more things make sense by seeing it play out from the opposing perspective (though Broche is my preference). Great game, great review.

Great review! This game is a black sheep of the series, which is a shame because it has some merits. I think that they wanted to implement the "Demon's Souls" combat but didn't know how to properly do it. At first I thought that it's something wrong with me, because I couldn't kill a single drunken bandit. Later after leveling up you felt like a god. I remember that you can easily brake the game by leveling the rolling mechanic. When leveled at max you could actually roll faster then you run. Imagine being a peasant in a small village and seeing a witcher rolling through the marketplace, lol.

Although I do think the Witcher 3 is technically a better game, Witcher 2 is still my favorite. The linearity shined brightly as it made me feel like the game wasn’t wasting my time. Plus, Letho is the goat 🐐

31:31 It's an RPG. Maybe I want to role play as Geralt, the vendor of used crap. To a bit more serious about it, if you limit the inventory, then you force people to return to towns, and this, for me, breaks the exploration. Onward to 200k. All glory to the algorithm.

Is the combat really that bad ? How does it fare against the jank combat of PB games (Risen, Elex) for instance ?

I have a witcher 3 question but it has to do with Witcher 2. In Witcher 3 there is a option, Simulate Witcher 2 Saves. Ive never played witcher 2 so what does this mean?

W3 has some extra content if you have a W2 save depending on your choices in W2. But without playing W2 you can just pick the choices and still get the content.

I have finished this game on dark without dark items (to make game harder). Alchemy is the most OP out of all trees. It is true that you can drink potions when you are outside of combat so you have to know what is coming. But if you know, alchemy all the way.
