Similar to the title, I haven’t played any Witcher series before. However, I’m curious about this one (because of the graphs). Is it okay to begin with Witcher 3? Could I run into any issues since I’m not familiar with the game’s start? Will it work smoothly on my old GTX 780 at 1920x1200 with a 16:10 aspect ratio? Thanks in advance.
Honestly, you'll be missing many characters from the first two games, but since I haven't played the third yet (I'll play it today), I can't say much. Probably in the third Witcher they'll reference events from earlier ones. It should be playable at medium to high difficulty with gameworks off.
You can begin at 3, as it’s built to skip the prior ones. Still, focusing on 1 and 2 will give you a clearer grasp of the narrative and misses about two-thirds of the experience. If you prefer not to play 1+2, you can research the story online beforehand.
Sure, I see. It might be helpful to review what's been discussed about Witcher 1 and 2 on YouTube. Haha, that sounds like a solid plan. What exactly are you curious about regarding the game?
Gameworks offers Nvidia-specific features such as HairWorks. It consumes over 25% of the GPU just for that setting on a single character. The performance isn't great, as it causes hair to appear transparent. Even when activated for everyone, Yennefer didn't have any at the beginning of the game.
