Simple question, I'm planning to get the Witcher 3 at some point, and Steam has a sale on at the moment.
At present, I happen to have the Witcher and the Witcher 2 due to sales, but haven't actually played much of them - having heard that 3 is both a leap above them and an awesome game RPG, I thought it'd be a great game for me as I like RPGs (Fallout (all), Dragon Age (2 was abit ropey and Inquistion was good if abit padded out), Mass Effect, etc),
Basically, to get a good experience from the story, is it a good idea to hold off and play the previous Witcher games, and/or read the books before playing 3, or am I going to be fine leaping straight into 3?
If the advise is to play the others first, I might hold off buying until the next Steam sale incase of there being a better deal.
The sale ends on 4th January, so I'd appreciate your collective opinions
Edit: added a 'nothing' option.
Edit 2: tried to add a nothing option but it seems that you can't edit poll options
