I too had a hard time getting into the Witcher 3 for the second time. I think that's because this game is so big, the area you visit so vast and it takes a long time to meet all the important characters.So I replayed Witcher 1 and Witcher 2 back to back and enjoyed them way more than I was expecting considering how old 1 is and how many times I've played 2.
With great anticipation I started up Witcher 3 to start a new save for the first time in almost five years and.... I dunno I'm kinda not feeling it?
I think maybe because Witcher 3 is so big and long despite five years passing it still all feels relatively familiar. It's really bumming me out though cause I was excited to play the trilogy one after the other.
The game is still incredible obviously but I think once you know the scope of the game, the map like the back of your hand, and how it all ends, the drive to keep going is just not there.
Anyone else had this happen?
I am currently doing quests in Novigrad and am thinking whether Gwralt should chose Yennefer or Triss and it's a hard decision. Though this time I am probably gonna pick Triss, as the relationship with her seems more healthy? And I am not a person who likes to have loud and full of anger conflicts etc. I really like that CDP Red gave us two female characters that are both very complex, with own agendas, flaws and ambitions. And it's not an easy choice to make.
