Sir Edward:

The pre-order is $9 off on steam right now too. I think I'll grab it.

Yeah, I never played Witcher 1 either, but on your suggestion I bought W2, and just haven't played it yet. Maybe this is the incentive I need.

Feel free to skip W1, it's entirely unnecessary.  It just has some back story, but you'll figure it out just fine in W2.  W2 is mechanically the far superior game to W1.

So I finally finished my first playthrough of The Witcher last night (I know, I know, I'm very late to the party as usual). It took me a little while to get into it at first, but once I did, I thoroughly enjoyed it. If the second one is that much better than the first, then I'm looking forward to playing it. :)

Ian:
You just reminded me, Steam just dropped the price of the pre-order for Witcher 3 to -20% for the current sale through Dec 2.  It was -10%, and may go back up to -10% after this sale.

I've been watching this ever since I recovered from playing through the Mass Effect series. The end (not the actual ending but the fact that it was over) of Mass Effect felt to me a lot like when you're a kid and your best friend moves away.

Sir William:
Scott...I totally get that.  I felt that way too.  It was like okay, what next?  What could possibly top that?  After wading through a few shooters that I never gave a second glance at (Bioshock Infinite, Red Faction Guerilla), I had a go at Dark Souls II but wasn't really feeling up for it.  I know, blasphemous, right?  Its medieval in orientation, I should be worshipping it!  lol

Anyway, I'm just marking time right now...found out I'm to get the XBone for Christmas!  So I went back into GTA Online...as far as open world and being able to get into just about anything, its as close as I'll get to the awesomeness that was Mass Effect.  I really, really liked that series of games.  And Sir Edward was right, the DLC really added to the whole experience, not to mention fleshing out already well written and engaging characters.

So there's a new ME on the horizon, but who will be in it and what it will be about is still in the ether.

On Witcher 3, I think I'll wait for it to come out for the nextgen systems...I'm certain it'll be worth it.
