Hello,
So I've decided to pass the time waiting for Witcher 3's price to go down a bit by playing the first two Witchers to contextualise myself a bit. Admittedly I haven't really played very much, about 40 minutes or so of the first game, but veterans of the first game, please tell me
1. Does combat evolve beyond monotonously clicking on the enemy in time with the mouse thing, occasionally changing stance to suit the type of enemy you're facing?
2. If combat does remain this boring, would you say that the story and world of the first one make up for it? I mean, Mass Effect 1's combat was arse as well, but the lore and characters gave me enough motivation to slog through it at least twice.
3. Would the latter games be at all playable/comprehensible if I skipped straight to Witcher 2 or 3?
Thanks,
-Quirky
