The Witcher games - combat systems query
« on: November 24, 2019, 04:43:28 PM »
People who've played the Witcher: Wild Hunt, what's the combat system like? I liked the top-down system in the first game, but I gave up on the second game pretty shortly after the prologue because I just found the combat controls and style to be both a mess to handle and creating rather boring combats even when one could get them to work. So I'm wondering about just skipping to the third game.

The combat system in Wild Hunt is definitely closer to W2 than W1. That said, after an initial period of adjustment, I ended up really enjoying the combat in the second game.
