Once you unlock bonus moves in your combat styles and this piece starts rolling... Geralt swinging his sword like a demonic madman on steroids, nothing even comes close to the badass feeling this gives !
@@revolverocelot1380 The swordplay specifically might not have been quite as smooth in the first game, but the rest of your options really gave the feeling of being a witcher much better than the second and third games did. The game much better encouraged using all of your options.
@@shoke5191 i killed him alone without pillons...20 o mores minutes lol (and still now i don't how ti use the pillons, i tryied but them hit me always)
The visual aesthetics of the swamp tower fight I will always love. It’s not a hard fight if you potion correctly, but the flames. The infri, a fire mage and an assassin, then geralt going ape with this music. So cool. Especially as you’ve likely just spent a god awful amount of time in chapter 2 and running around that swamp.
Alexei Strife I didn't find the boss battles difficult, they just took waaaay too long to complete. And normal fights with monsters felt right because Geralt's purpose is to hunt monsters. I thought the combat was fun, that's my opinion and you don't have to agree.
in my opinion combat was awesome, true the fights aren,t hard but like MacGyver said, Geralt is monster killer, through the combat we can focus on the story more than just fighting monsters, and thank too combat too the story is more interesting :)
yeah, witcher 1 had some death/heavy metal feeling, there is even metal song used to promote witcher 1 recorded by polish metal band - sword of the witcher - vader
i love how the entire soundtrack is medieval and then you get to a boss and suddenly there's a goddamn metal riff out of fuckin nowhere and youre like WHAT IS HAPPENING I AM SO DEAD!!
I started playing The Witcher: Enhanced Edition just yesterday. The moment I heard this music for the first time, it definitely put a smile on my face. I knew I had to look this up the moment I heard it. I don't care if this game takes place in a medieval world; I approve this music hands-down.
I lured it to the place Order's soldiers were camping and it still took looong time. It killed everyone there except sigfried who kept resurrecting lol.
Music aside, I just love how Geralt looks in this art, perhaps it's the best and most accurate representation of him we'll ever get. Sure, the gameplay and the limitations made him weird in-game, but the cinematic intro, ending and art is how he's supposed to look.
Remakes should be illegal, tbh. I bet they will remove all the mechanics and bring in the roll-to-win souls-esque combat system from TW2/TW3 just so that they can lure in the "modern audience"... whilst also implementing "reimagined" soundtrack.
I kinda like the Witcher 3's OST more, I do not miss the metal parts at all, the full folk style fits more into the character of the game along with the badass orchestral tracks.
@@TTCello I agree in general, the OST rounds out Witcher 3's amazing fantasy feel. HOWEVER imagine a boss fight with Eredin and suddenly a never before heard OST with an e-guitar starts playing... Everything about the Wild Hunt screams metal, it would have been very fitting and the music being out of place would be fitting too considering the Hunt's other-worldly nature
@@EnCey2 Cause they needed some folk metal into it, the issue is would have been a challenge to arrange it mostly because 2 things, current metal trendings are Djnt and progressive that would have never fit with the game, and the remix would have needed to be with mediterranean/slavic feel, and The Folk metal typical trend goes along mostly with celtic or Scandinavian Tunes, for reasons I don't want to explain right now.
Even though the metal riff sounds pretty ridiculous, I think it’s supposed to symbolize the monster geralt is fighting. While the the epic horn part is supposed to symbolize geralt. It’s a nice duality to the song.
*songs starts to play* Me: Wait, boss, lemme pause game and get the music volume to the max *pauses game, goes to settings, turns music volume to max, goes back to game* Me: Much better
Now hear me out, I beat azar by running around in a circle and spamming igni for literally two hours, I managed to cheese the ai where it thought i was out of combat so i could save. It was a pain but I did it and sigfried's line afterwards "finally! i was worried!" really hit differently after that
Me too! :'D When i first played the game and Javed knocked me on the ground, i was so terrified from that HP loss. So i started circling around and making igni's to slow him down. Then there was a chance where i could save, he got only a third of his health at the time. That was so lucky. :D When i'd finally killed him, i was so relieved.
The first time I heard this music was when I encountered Bounty Hunter who came after me for accidentally attacking guards in the Outskirts. Made me gain instant respect for this guy, especially since I couldn't land a single hit on him at the time.
que banda sonora mas epica, pfff cuando luchas contra el golem en una batalla encarnizada que dura bastante tiempo por lo tanque que es, desearias que la musica nunca acabara. a los que les gusta la fantasia oscura les recomiendo ver el anime berserk es una obra maestra igual que the witcher.
LordOcampo they may not have added it to the original, but I remember hearing this song in the enhanced edition on my first playthough, in the fight against the professor and azar in the swamp
This was the hardest boss I ever faced in the game. Constantly dodging his attacks and attacking him only to drain his health little by little. Only after beating it him did I learn there was a weak spot.
@@maclaren93 speak with vaska and do their missions and druids do their missions too than you can use 3 stone towers at golems area to attract lightning
There's always a 2nd way to kill these extra ordinary bosses easily.. if you go for head to head, it will take much more time and eventually fuck you most of the time..
