The Witcher
The Witcher series has become a huge hitter in the gaming industry, but the original Witcher game proves that, as Nathan Drake would say, greatness often comes from small beginnings, but more on that later. Today CD Projekt RED may be a household name among RPG players, but back in 2007, no one had heard of them. The Witcher was a humble but solid first entry in the series and allowed the studio to slowly but surely build up a fan base as each game became bigger and better.
Though a little rough around the edges and not as expansive as other RPG’s of the day, such as The Elder Scrolls, The Witcher is still a very solid game that holds its own even today. The game’s atmospheric world pulls players into the boots of Geralt of Rivia, and its meaningful choices make you feel like you’re having a genuine impact on the world and the characters around you. It may not have the expansive world and shiny graphics of The Witcher 3, but the original Witcher is still a great entry in the franchise and certainly worth checking out if you enjoyed the Geralt’s latest adventure.
