Comment on Witcher 1&2 are probably worth playing

I really enjoyed the Witcher 1. What really sealed it for me was the questline
Vizima Confidential
The whole detective arc was very staisfying, and even if it got a little tedious, I felt like a real flatfoot running around the city chasing down leads. Hell, you can’t even solve the mystery by following the quest. IIRC it’s only by talking to the undertaker at the right time that you discover Raymond is a fake. ___
It beat the pants off of anything from Witcher 2. I also prefer the alchemy system from TW1.
I dislike that TW2 is basically half a game until you replay it and take a different path.

That was my impression. Not only was it shorter but I also didn’t feel like playing it twice so it just felt like I missed out on the story with Roche. I enjoy branching paths the way that W3 does it where you get different dialog and occasionally different events but having it be split down the middle is just annoying.
