Witcher 2 wasn't an improvement. Witcher 1 has an entirely different combat system. Which, to be fair, is pretty weird and takes some time getting used to but it actually works quite well. Has been a while since I've lasted played Witcher 1 but if I remember correctly it had the least frustrating combat system of all 3 titles.

Good to know. I've only played like 1-2 hours of 2 and 3 and hated my time with both, so I'm not well versed in them in any way.

But I was at least aware of their existence before 3 came out and suddenly everyone I know was a Witcher fan.

I think I've played through W3 twice but I do think it's very much overrated. It's nowhere near as good as people make it out to be. The combat system is probably the worst thing about it. It's one of those where playing on the highest difficulty is akin to banging your head against the wall. From a gameplay perspective the animations are absolutely horrible. Especially in fist fights.

I'll agree on that. The actual gameplay portion was horrific to me and I just could not get around it, even if the writing between those sections was quite good.

And considering most people only talk about the story, and the card game, I think its very much a case of people just mindlessly completing it as filler content to get to more dialogue.

I'm sure some people enjoy it plenty, but I can't imagine I'm in the small minority that find it terrible.

You (we) are. Most people are blinded by pretty looks and seemingly don't really care about gameplay anymore. I regularly piss people off by saying Gothic 1 is leagues better than Witcher 3 and I will die on that hill. (͡ ° ͜ʖ ͡ °)
