Witcher 3 is the game I'm most excited about out of all the announced games.

I have really tried to get into the TES games, but always failed. Morrowind, Oblivion - they are ok, but something is always missing in them for me. On the other hand Witcher games are awesome, I get sucked into them the moment I start the game. They reming me of the Gothic experience. To me there is no doubt about the fact that Witcher > TES. I'm awaiting the next Witcher and hope for a remake of 1 and 2 on PS4/Xbone. When it comes to TES, the thing I'd want the most would be to get one (Morrowind preferably) released on Vita, so that I get extra motivation to play it because of the platform. Maybe being able to play it on the go and in bed would allow me to get into it, cause I just can't find motivation to stay with these games in from of the big screen.

OK, you and others persuaded me: when I finish Gothic II, I'll start The Witcher series, while Skyrim will stay in my backlog (and Morrowind will stay on my HDD, but probably left midway and seldom played as it currently is since I restarted and finished Thief III and started Gothic II). I'll accept the risk of being seriously disappointed by Skyrim if I'll play it after TW 1 and 2, but I can't wait anymore.

Cool Just one note - it's not exactly Gothic, but out of the games released nowadays, I think it's the closest. I'd even dare to say Witcher 1 has a striking resemblance to Gothic 1 in terms of locations you explore. You also have to make choices as to who to side with. And it has a real storyline, though it's darker than Gothic. And the world is so nice and gritty - it isn't good or bad. Everything and everyone is grey, as are you and your choices. These games are adult, but then againt - that's exactly what the source material was like. I highly recomend the books - to me they are so much better than Tolkien They are really quality titles, not just toilet books like most fantasy stuff

But to tell the truth, I'd buy and play Gothic I and II in a heartbeat, especially should they port it over to Vita. Playing Gothic in bed <3 Though they'd have to redesign the controls, haha.
