  • For the most part, the story is nothing to write home about and it’s not exactly the most beautiful game out there. However, I think the mechanics are great - I did enjoy my time with BD2 a lot and would recommend it.

    That being said, if you don’t enjoy the gameplay, it won’t change that much. You just get more classes.


  • I’ve not yet touched it. But since you mentioned it: How does leveling now work? And more importantly, how does enemy scaling work?

    If I remember correctly, in the original, I felt strongest when I got Umbra at Lv 1 and just never levelled up.

    Furthermore, how are the character animations? I saw the Emperor in the Remake and while the model was quite nice, in combination with his facial animations, I actually preferred the original. What I assume to be the original animations paird with updated models seemed too uncanny. However, that problem could be specific to him.





  • Earlier this year, I was in a similar predicament. I actually told Triss that I loved her. However, that only works if you take advantage of her while she’s drunk at the party. (She falls down while drunk and after you catch her, you can randomly kiss her.) I didn’t and locked myself out of romancing her early.

    I would have lost many hours of progress by going back and frankly, I didn’t want to go for that choice. I cut my losses and went with Yen. Since then, I finished the whole game, DLCs included, and I don’t regret my choice. She gets a lot better later on and I came to appreciate her. Her quests are good. I just think the game does a poor job introducing her. I don’t care for either the books or the show and I’ve only played Witcher 2 once on release. With my first playthrough of Witcher 3 only starting last year, I knew literally nothing going in. Up until I could romance Triss, Yen was annoying and arrogant.
