Is it worth playing without playing the first game? (The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings)

It is not yet known, let's see what the impact of events

No don't play

not worth it. Besides, the first Witcher isn't such a bad game that you convince yourself to play it.

It is not known whether there will be a direct connection between the plots ... but the fact that there is an indirect connection (heroes, the general political situation, etc.) is for sure. So you run the risk of misunderstanding. It is better to go through the first part, then there will be the most complete picture. + you have to take into account the fact that the events of the second part begin from the moment the first one ends ... So play the first one while there is time ... And the second one. If you haven't played the first game, don't play it (IMHO).

Better to play. Get used to the controls, the characters, the game itself. And the books are worth reading too.

I urgently need to go through the first part ..
At one time I went through two-thirds of the game and somehow abandoned it. Probably because it's long and just a little boring. But the game is GREAT, Seabandit needs to go through the first part.

Best to play) Rarely anyone does not like this game)

You decide. I would advise all the same, for the sake of completeness, to play the first part.

PS What is it all of a sudden on the PG all became "new users"?

Rhetorical question...

PS [new user], don't know why everyone became "new users" :)

Of course it's worth it! One of the few games made only for PC. Already for this she wants to pass. The main thing is to try, and then it will tighten itself)))

Of course it's worth playing the first part first :)

Without going through the first part, a nasty residue of misunderstanding of some points may remain .. although, we do not know exactly how many of them there will be.

Z.Y. and playing the first part, when I read the books, is generally chic! You notice a lot of nuances, different jokes... some remarks become clear, because there are links to book events... I hope that this will also be the case in the second part :)

If you haven't played it, you're missing out! Be sure to play before release! I won’t be able to go through it to the end (Windows flew off)

Costs. 1st reason - it is also very interesting (part 1). 2nd reason - you really get to know the characters, in a sense, history, well, with Geralt himself)

I, too, decided to go through the first one
already in chapter 5, I’m pissing)

People, import of saves will definitely be? Then I have to go through it again

already passed the
ending hints that parts 1 and 2 are inextricably linked.
so go ahead, you won't regret it

by the way, at the end there is a hint that Alvin was the master of the order. After all, he wore an amulet like Alvin's and, according to Tris, traveled not only in space, but also in time.

snayper95, dear, no need to spoil! Especially in a topic that was created by a person who probably did not go through the game.
And if the language itches to discuss the ending of the game, please, there is a corresponding topic on the forum.
Svetloyar, for sure. Are the developers' arguments not enough for you?

Hmm, I didn't even think to think like that... The amulet is the same as Alvin's... but where is the connection? And what's the point?...
