I've tried to play this game multiple times over the years and never got very far. Finally played through it. Simply amazing game. Best RPG I've played since Baldur's Gate. A true classic in my opinion and the game has aged incredibly well with the Enhanced Edition. Its a bit on rails but the story, game system and overall attention to detail really deliver. I didn't mean to finish it tonight and be up this late but I simply couldn't quit. I thought I was going to hate the combat based on the opening sequence of the game but just the opposite. I loved it. I had to kill ALL my enemies!!!!

You tore through that pretty quick.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I agree 100% about it being a classic. The storytelling is superb, and that plot twist…

I really struggled completing it a few years ago and despised the fetch quest design, but I ended up appreciating the experience because of the story - especially chapter 4

It's definitely a slog to get through at times, that damn Swamp level……uugggghhhh.

But what a payoff, and what a twist too. TW1 is one of the few games that I think would benefit from an update/remake release. Trim the fat, tidy up the more annoying elements, and it'd be an easy but deserved extra payday for CDPR.

After TW3's success, I thin kit'd be worth them considering.

What twist are you referring to? I had a few unknowns at the end perhaps because

I've only played through it once and it was ages ago now, so I'm not sure how alternative endings & plotlines pan out. All I will say is load an earlier save, and unearth more about Alvin & Shani.

I read the Wikis and it seems I've uncovered everything about them already.

The hints are pretty subtle, and a lot of people don't realize it their first time through or miss it altogether. I sent you a PM.

Saw it thanks. I suspected but discarded the thought. Subtle but makes sense!
