    Beautiful game. Great story and a great plot. It is pretty good at keeping you wanting to play as long as you enjoy a single-player game in the third-person view.

I had been a fan of the Witcher books long before this game was announced, unlike vast majority of the fans in the West. And so when it was announced that this game is going to be made, I was really sceptical. A new Polish game studio, with very little experience was trying to recreate that unique Witcher atmosphere in a AAA wannabe format? No chance anything good can come of that, I thought. Boy was I wrong! I still remember my first playthrough. Not only it wasn't a disaster, it was actually great. And they nailed the Witcher atmosphere. Lets talk about that for a while. I truly believe that the Witcher is quite unique. Sure there are other, much more brutal and vulgar and obscene and visceral fantasy worlds. But I love the Witcher world for being, at its very core, truly cynical. I just love that. And the developers truly managed to transfer this feeling to this game, which alone is a praiseworthy achievement. But there is so much more to this game. The graphics is very good for its time, with the somewhat bleak colors brilliantly portraying the somewhat bleak reality of the world. The loading screens and story decision cutscenes art is just awesome. The music is great, it fits the Witcher world perfectly. The main theme proved to be such a hit that it remained a main theme (with some changes) for both successor games. I always liked the Murky Waters tavern song, such a merry wedding song in the midst of all the suffering and war. The main story itself is actually very short and quite simple, and honestly, I do not think the mutants were even necessary, but it works anyway. Mainly because it is very often intertwined with the many secondary storylines and together they make a great game. The prologue is a tutorial, Act I gives you much more, but essentially it is closed off and can be considered an advanced tutorial. Then Act II and III are pretty much connected and in my opinion, this is the best part of the game. The game turns into a grim detective genre and again it works excellently. The game does not hold your hand, you must make your own deductions and reach your own conclusions and you can easily make a mistake, which will cost you. The characters are great, believable with typical bitter Witcher sense of humor. Then Act IV takes you into the country, but problems follow you there and add to those that are already there. In Act V you pretty much reap what you sowed. Epilogue gives you the obvious and expected ending, but with one (almost) hidden twist, that you can quite easily miss, which puts it all in a different perspective. One thing that the game has been criticised for is the combat. It is unusual, bit weird, bit repetitive, but it was not a problem for me. I got used to it quickly and then it felt normal ever since. The game does get a bit too easy towards the end, even on the highest difficulty, but that is a normal thing for RPGs. The talents are almost all passive, but with a quite a lot of freedom, so especially sign oriented builds definitely deserve a replay. The next thing I want to mention is the choices. You are making choices almost all the time, some are felt immediately, some are felt only much later, some are not felt at all, but they still affect the world in major way, even though you do not even know about them. Almost like the real world. In the most general sense, you can choose between Humans and Nonhumans. Or you can refuse to choose and remain strictly neutral in a Witcher way. It is great that you have that choice. Throughout the game you can also partake in drinking competitions, bare knuckle fighting and of course the excellent dice poker. One last thing: the romance. This game offers you basically two major romance options and then plethora of trysts (including a tryst with Triss, which can turn into a major romance spanning all three games). Your achievements on the fields of love are then forever recorded in the forms of in-game collectable cards with paintings of said females in often quite revealing positions. One of the greatest gaming ideas of all times. And all these things together make up the fantastic atmosphere I mentioned before. A bit dark, a bit sad and really cynical. I have nothing negative to say about this game. I played on PC and completed the game in about 50 hours. Naturally, no microtransactions and no SJW. A Witcher 1 remake is now in development and once again I am pretty sceptical and cynical about it. It will be open world, which might change the gameplay drastically. I truly hope none of the modern world SJW netflix cancer will affect this remake. By the way, don't you dare touch the sex cards.

    The Witcher is a fantastic game, that was somehow followed by two even more fantastic games. The more I play this excellent game, the more I am convinced that the remake is utterly unnecessary. Final Verdict: 95 %    … Expand

    If CD Projekt were to revamp the combat, fix the inventory system, improve the textures, and find a solution for the most tedious quests (which often involve traversing various locations with just one running style, resulting in unnecessarily long trips of 25 minutes instead of a quick 7/8 minutes on horseback), you would have a hidden gem in your hands.    … Expand

    Может ли игра в 20 лет влиять на мировоззрение? Я считаю, что да.

Ведь, в 20 лет пройдя данную игру, я получил от нее столько же эмоций и впечатлений, как и от игр, которые я проходил в 10-11 лет, то есть, она заставила меня так же, как в начале игрового опыта, сопереживать персонажам и воспринимать все совершенно по-новому, словно в первый раз, словно я не знал всего, что от нее можно ждать. В The Witcher под нашим управлением оказывается ведьмак Геральт, персонаж серии книг Анджея Сапковского, но он потерял память, и для него все, что происходило в книгах, незнакомо, поэтому он в каком-то смысле заново знакомится с миром, а мы вместе с ним (правда, не совсем понятно, как он при этом по-прежнему владеет боевыми навыками, алхимией и магическими знаками - камень в огород приема с потерей памяти). Все мои впечатления от игры не уместить в одну рецензию, поэтому постараюсь как можно более кратко описать их вместе с игрой. Потерявший память Геральт оказывается в Каэр-Морхене, на который тут же совершается нападение и крадутся ведьмачьи секреты. Вместе с другими ведьмаками он отправляется на поиски в разные части света, посещает предместья Вызимы, саму Вызиму, квартал за кварталом, болота, Темнноводье и другую часть болот. На пути ведьмака возникают различные опасности, начиная со всевозможных тварей и монстров и заканчивая людьми, так или иначе потерявшими человеческий облик. В арсенале присутствуют серебряный и стальной меч, а также двуручное и одноручное оружие, которое можно поднимать у врагов и покупать у торговцев, как и доспехи. Игра сделана в духе классических RPG от Bioware, к тому же на ее движке. И все равно она поражает проработкой и улучшениями, добавленными непосредственно от CD Project Red. Как минимум графика для 2007 (2008) года смотрится очень хорошо. Что еще я могу по ней сказать. Сюжет - выше всяких похвал, серьезно, здесь присутствуют как хорошие клиффхенгеры, так и закономерные последствия выбора игрока, которые особенно ярко проявляются в финале, и нельзя сказать, какая концовка наиболее удачна - мы всегда выбираем "меньшее зло". И этого бы не было без простых, но глубоких диалогов и персонажей с их особенностями. Осталось мне пройти "Ведьмак 2" и "Ведьмак 3", и я наконец полностью проникнусь вселенной и серией. 10 бутылок спирта из 10.… Expand

    SHORZZ / The Witcher: Enhanced Edition: The Witcher Game Series might be the most detailed RPG games you'll ever play. The reason is based on the books. Witcher (1), combat is very strange in our current system. It feels boring and awkward at first, but it gets more playable once you get used to it. Pretty good game with RPG elements. It was a good game for its time. Play and experience the game.

The Witcher is a video game that "oozes" love towards the original work. The developers have fully succeeded in recreating in another medium the atmosphere and worldbuilding of this saga. What is most striking when approaching this title is the "dynamism" of the places, the interactions within them, the huge amount of dialogues that are never an end in themselves, but always go to tell something about that world and have a real impact on the story. This last feature was not always implemented perfectly in the video games released at the same time as the first The Witcher. Nonetheless, even in its strengths, there are some sloppy points, to name two for example:
    1) characterization of NPCs not always consistent;
    2) ridiculous romances.
    Another flaw that is impossible to gloss over concerns the way the narrative of this game is constructed. Several times during the story, I had the perception that this, but in general, the whole narrative set-up including codexes and more, is aimed at those who already know the world of The Witcher. Compared to a similar title, such as the first Mass Effect may be, The Witcher does not have the ability to grab you and fully involve you within the game world, especially if you know nothing about it.
    Before moving on to the main criticism of this game, which everyone mentions when talking about it, it is important to talk about some elements of the game:
    - The sound design often comes across as crude, but it is balanced by good soundtracks that are sometimes corny, but always extremely consistent with the game;
    - The minigames: the dice game is entertaining and pushes you to play it more than it should, the same cannot be said for the fistfighting, which is too simple and scripted.
    -The game menu and Hud are poorly maintained, often intrusive, and above all not very user-friendly;
    - The skill tree can initially be interesting, but as the game progresses several issues related to the progression you want to give Geralt come out.
    The main flaw I mentioned above is the combat system, which comes across as point-and-click. There are 3 different styles of combat, each particularly effective against different types of enemies. The problem is that the gameplay becomes mechanical, simple, and repetitive from the moment you memorize which style to use and against whom. Also, the use of signs does not combine well with the gameplay; there is an imbalance between them.
    In conclusion, there are many other elements that I would have liked to introduce in this review, but I wanted to dwell mainly on the critical points of this title, which are certainly accentuated by the weight of the years, because these have had a considerable weight on the gaming experience . Despite this, I believe that this title can be enjoyed by lovers of the genre and that it could be interesting to play together with TW2, before approaching the CDProjectRed(TW3) masterpiece.    … Expand

    I absolutely love the setting of this game. Also, simple graphics giving it even more those "dark vibes". However, i didn't finished the game. I tried. Three times. And eventually i gave up, because i just can't. The combat system and clunky walking system sometimes pissed me off for a little bit. And some quests are way too boring...

    The best aspect of this game is the side missions and the story. The weakest aspect is definitely the combat it's just too outdated. The lowest point for me was the fourth chapter it just drags for too long and it feels unnecessary the game would have been much better without it.

    First of all, the gameplay of the game is very good, but the game has a very big deficiency. You understand what to do in the narration, but you can't understand where to go, it's not like that in witcher 2 and witcher 3, I tried the real thing, but I couldn't understand it because everyone went to different places and I quit.

    I needed 3 attempts to get into the game because I was put off by the combat and graphics.

    But let TELL YOU something: after the first few hours the story sucked me in and I started to like the combat! You just have to get past the first few quests, and then you will feel the "magic". Of course, grpahics are 2008 and look dated nowadays. But the overall impression and the atmosphere    I needed 3 attempts to get into the game because I was put off by the combat and graphics.

    Of course, grpahics are 2008 and look dated nowadays. But the overall impression and the atmosphere are amazing! The feeling is better than in many modern games.

    You can download some mods to make the textures better and fix some things.

    Pros
    ------
    - Excellent story
    - Good side quests
    - Combat can be fun if you get used to it
    - Very good music
    - Awesome, likeable characters
    - Several skills / potions / improvements available

    Cons
    ------
    - Quests tracking is not so good, sometimes you don't know what to do next
    - Inventory management...is a mess, but you will get used to it
    - Combat can be annoying sometimes, espceially the mobs. But you will find separation techniques for them
    - Voiceover (german): Rittersporn / Dandelions voice is very amateurish, but all the others are professional
    - Quicksave will create 500 savegame files at least so you should delete older saves from time to time

    If you are a Wticher fan, you will enjoy this. Also I recommend reading the 9 books! Witcher 1 is not as sophisticated as Witcher 3 but also a good game.    … Expand

    Quite boring game. Everything is slow and ugly.
    Graphics are poor and grey. Most of the game is located in different sections of a city that always look the same.
    There are really few NPC and monster models, so you are always dealing with an NPC Clone Army. The scenario sections are so tiny, with lots of loading screens between sections, like accessing houses, caves, different sections    Quite boring game. Everything is slow and ugly.

    The scenario sections are so tiny, with lots of loading screens between sections, like accessing houses, caves, different sections of the city...

    Combat lacks a lof of responsiveness. Lots of twirls but almost no feedback on hits, misses, criticals ...
    There are really few weapons and armor and most of them are given at end game. So you expend most of the time with the same gear. There are secondary weapons like daggers but are completely useless. I still not understand the logic behind this weapons.
    On the other side there are hundreds of crap materials that you are almost not using.
    Someone decided it was a good idea to have mission logs that take up half of your inventory. Exactly what you need, more crap in your inventory.

    Quests are super annoying. You need to do tasks in a specific and unknown hour with an NPC hidden into the clone army. Then NPCs have the ability to disappear of change its location during quests, so you expend a lot of time searching fro the specific place and time to find someone/something to progress.

    The Witcher is quite a controversial title - on one hand it deserves to be among such monumental games as Fallout 3 and GTA IV but on the other hand the condition some of the technical aspects of the game are in are unacceptable. For example, the NPCs - was it really that difficult to create more than just 3 skins FOR THE WHOLE GAME? Believe me, you will think you are going crazy afterThe Witcher is quite a controversial title - on one hand it deserves to be among such monumental games as Fallout 3 and GTA IV but on the other hand the condition some of the technical aspects of the game are in are unacceptable. For example, the NPCs - was it really that difficult to create more than just 3 skins FOR THE WHOLE GAME? Believe me, you will think you are going crazy after seeing the same man or women over and over and over and over again. Then we have this unnecessarily complicated tree of abilites and a bunch of alchemy ingridients 95% of which you don't care about because the mixtures you can make with them are basically useless. Ah, and yeah - the game is pretty easy. I played on normal and only occasionally I struggled with my foes. If you don't have difficulties dealing with your opponents you don't have much reason to care about all that plenitude of different mixtures you can make and of course you could care less about your charachter level and skills. Considering we are talking about RPG here it is not a good look. Honestly, the whole game (okay, at least the first half of it) feels like a beta version of some game which still will need at least 3 months to be ready. I don't understand how someone could let the game to be released worldwide and to not see all the problems that were present regarding NPCs, the difficulty, the dialogues, the gameplay, the music, etc.

    Of course the world is deep, interesting and feels alive which is unsurprising considering all the source material available thanks to 8 books written by Andrzej Sapkowski so there isn't much the game developers should praised for in this regard either.

    Pretty much the first half of the game was "meh" but it really picked up the steam in the second half and starting from the forth chapter the plot got really good(if it didn't the game certainly would be rated "6" or even "5") - it is as though the second half of the game was made by completely different people or the writers and producers actually learned something along the way while making the first 3 chapters and thanks god because otherwise we would never see a sequel.    … Expand

    Долго не мог нормально начать играть и дропал игру из-за местной боевки, но чуть-чуть усилий и эта игра поглотила меня без остатка.

    çok fazla konuşmaya gerek yok combatı en kötü olan oyun.2008de bir sürü efsane oyun çıkmış .Sen dalga geçer gibi böyle combat yaparsan ne kadar iyi hikaye yapsanda çöp olursun.

    7.5 / 10 ❤️ - Good
    (after 49 hours of playing & completing the game)

    Overall great, but the game mechanics are incredibly clunky and hard to get used to.
    Ugly graphics.

    A more serious plot in the world of moral shades of gray. If we get over everything else, it's worth it for her

    The main adventure still has serious pacing problems, combat's still too easy for the most part, and load times -- though reduced -- continue to get in the way of the action.

    The new and improved package is increasingly attractive. There are still some rough edges, and moments of genuine drama are still undercut by how they're performed, but this is an agreeably driven RPG in an agreeably ornate package.

    Finally, The Witcher fulfills its potential, and, best of all, it's available as a free update, just in case you bought it anyway. [Nov 2008, p.110]
