The goal is simple – to be the first one crossing the finish line. Both horse riding and horse racing appeared only in the third game of the series, but it is a very interesting process (which became much easier after the patch). Geralt himself is a great rider, but only you can make him even better, bring fame to him and his loyal companion Roach, and help him win some nice saddles, saddlebags, blinders (some of it can be sold). The next exciting gambling activity would be horse racing. Apart from the money, you will also receive several Champion titles (for each region), swords schematics and interesting stories to tell. And if you are good enough you can earn up to 1600 coins, which is quite a wager considering the prices in the game. The Wild Hunt is offering much more complicated gameplay and timings. And in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings the mechanics of the fistfights was even easier since they were just quick-time events and you just had to press the right button at the right time. Why is it gambling? Because basically, you are betting on your own skill, reaction speed, and attention. You just have to block, dodge and attack at the right time. The other mini-game is the one requiring no more or less than your attention – Fistfighting. Truly a game for those born under the lucky star. This is the game where the luck and the depth of your coin bag are the only things that matter. But it really is the game of luck since no one knows how the dice will roll, and the level of players are only influencing the amount of bet you can make. The game is just an entertainment, but one of those that can make you lose a lot of money instead of getting any. Each player has a set of 5 dices and has to win two out of three rounds. One of the things that appeared in the first Witcher game and that traveled to The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings was Dice Poker. Why shouldn’t it have gambling? So if we are to choose between one evil and another, let’s just look closely at the gambling activities, shall we? The dice roll, the flying fist and the tired Roach The world of The Witcher is quite dark and apart from blood and violence, it also has sex, alcohol and all package of human depravities shown.
Or it can be seen as plain gambling online since that’s what it actually is considering it is the part of the world the story takes place in. So the last aspect is why I am writing this article at all because I am one of those people who spent hours and hours racing, fist fighting, playing dice poker and beating every single one of the Gwent matches.Īll of this activities can be considered just added activities to enlarge the time you spend playing the game, on the other hand, it can be seen as we-heard-you-like-games-so-we-put-a-game-in-your-game-so-you-could-play-a-game-while-playing-a-game-approach. The Witcher has many sides to it, among which every gamer can find something they enjoy the most – sweeping through the main plot with well-known characters, improving the fighting system and slaying every monster that comes your way, the romance part, some can just enjoy exploring the diverse and broad open world of the game, and some might get hooked up on the in-game activities.
