It was a great first Foray into their own games, The Witcher 1 is a beautiful but now outdated RPG, now 16 years post launch. I played this game and it definitly has outdated game design annd graphics but for what it did it was still fun, an enjoyable story, good cast of characters who will grow in future games and an intriguing gameplay loop if not basic.

I have major nostalgia for this, being a kid playing this on my uncle's PC, playing it now as an adult I can see where the game would have shone back then through the eyes of an adult.

I highly recommend this to Witcher books and Witcher 2/3 fans who haven't played this.

The Story is a direct continuation from the end of The Lady of the Lake and continues Geralts story whilst hinting at other major characters, however instead of Yennefer we have triss and instead of Ciri we have Alvin. The story presents twists and turns and each side quests are genuinely interesting and all aids geralt's preset character dynamics despite his ailment told in the game

Highly recommend for a fun classic RPG experience
7/10
