Witcher Adventure - 1

 Hello! Figured I'd try something new for today. So I had never played the Witcher 3 before until around the start of this year. I felt like I had really good timing in buying a Nintendo Switch Lite around February since that was almost before this whole Corona thing started blowing up. And at that time people were buying the Nintendo Switch left and right so I felt lucky that I got mine at the time that I did. And with that purchase I got the Witcher 3: Complete Edition for the Switch! It was the main reason that made me want to buy a Switch in the first place. But life kept me busy with work and such. And honestly I hadn't really done much gaming as I used to. You can ask my friends and they would all tell you that they were surprised that I was being responsible and not gaming XD but I still love to play video games. It has always been one of my biggest passions and I've decided to get back into gaming of course. So for now, let me share with you my thoughts on my adventure into the Witcher Universe ^^

Okay so heads up, I had taken a lot of screenshots already with my Switch so I'm just posting them and giving my commentaries and how I feel about the overall story and game. So apologies in advance since I'll be cutting things short since I do plan to sleep after this. But eventually, I'll have things updated to where I can post all my screenshots as I get them. So let's get started

So when you start the game, one of the first things you'll see is a kind of animation of an old man (who maybe works for the Eternal Fire?) start talking and describing to you about how the world is filled with monsters and how Witchers work in the world. This animation will keep repeating every time you start the game so this is something you'll be skipping constantly.

The next thing that you'll see is the game menu where you have Geralt meditating in front of the barn in that awesome Witcher 3 trailer. And don't let the above picture fool you. At first I started with Blood and Broken Bones game mode but for some reason I decided to start the game again since there were some updates for the game and I figured that starting a new game with the new update might be better and not give me much framerate issues. I'll touch more on all that other stuff in my future posts. But for now just know that the current playthrough that I'm doing is at the regular Story and Sword mode. Honestly at this point, I kinda want to finish the main story and everything as soon as I can for multiple reasons. I can always explore and take my time on my second playthrough anyway.

So once you start the game for the first time, you'll be treated to the same video that you see every time you start the game. So obviously you're going to skip that XD

The next thing you see is an awesome cinematic of Yennefer escaping the Nilfgaardian army. The above screenshot is not so good but I did want to try and capture this huge soldier cutting off the head of Yennefer's horse. I won't explain too much this video but you can easily find this and all the previous stuff I mentioned on YouTube easily enough. But for my avid readers who are so confused right about now, don't worry. I'll be going into detail about this world and all it's characters and story line in great detail in the future. But for now, I'll leave it at here. Thank you so much for reading ^^ I really appreciate it as usual. So till next time, keep gaming peeps.
