What confuses me is what's stopping those that would be interested in these streamers from just looking at the real deal: actual porn?

eh what pussies
I used to watch that shit at 8 am in the living room once I found out our box had an enable porn switch on the back of it

and I was 9

I thought the post had negative implications of greed, but to be fair it is actually pretty vague

I have the tits for it, just a damn shame I'm not female

But if I was I'd be on that shit

Or the best thing you can do is go to youtube and watch a non commentary let's play of Witcher 1. then play 2 and 3.

You can probably get away with skipping Witcher 1 and going for 2.
Personally, I think Witcher 1's story is pretty fascinating, especially with how the universe pans out, but the gameplay itself isn't exactly much to brag about. It was certainly unique, and interesting with how they had the fundamental idea of you only needing the mouse to play if you so chosen (overall I think it's better to do keyboard + mouse), but the overall result isn't something of a positive memory.
The gist of Witcher 1 is Geralt has his memories wiped but can't figure out how or why (which isn't really expounded on except in Witcher 2, though there's a slight allusion in the 1st with the Wild Hunt's constant presence). He ends up getting caught up in a major scheme devised by the Grandmaster of the Flaming Rose, who tries to do a sort of apocalyptic event to cleanse the Earth.
The game has you caught between two factions; The Order of the Flaming Rose (think Human-supremacist knights) , and the Scoia'tel (think pro-non-humans, sometimes non-human-supremacist at certain times). You'll end up with three events to make an important choice which results in three outcomes; two of these outcomes go for either faction, and the third is where Geralt is completely neutral (imo the best outcome).

If you decide not to play Witcher 1 and go straight to 2 and later 3, here's the gist of what transitions from 1 to 2 and 3; Geralt finishes the big story on good terms with King Foltest, who subsequently makes him his personal bodyguard after Geralt saves his life at the end sequence of TW1 after an attempted assassination.
The Knights of the Flaming Order end up becoming the personal Order to King Radovid, who you meet in TW1 as someone who had manipulated in and around the Order previously.
TW1 initially gives you a romance option between Triss and Shani which is thrown out the goddamn window by having Geralt set to romancing Triss in the intro to TW2.
There's a boy named Alvin who's heavily alluded to also be the Grandmaster of the Flaming Rose, because of a number of details surrounding both Alvin and the Grandmaster's abilities which lead to speculation. A letter drops in TW3 that pretty much confirms the theory that they're one and the same, though the details of it aren't really essential to TW2 and TW3's stories respectively.
Geralt has a group of friends that are pretty much always with him throughout TW2 and TW3. There isn't a whole lot of context given on them in TW1, except some vague recollections here and there.

Probably forgetting some things since it's been a while since I've played the series, but those were the most consequential things I could think of that might confuse someone who hasn't played TW1 and skipped right to TW2.

If you ever feel like there's a lot of context on Geralt's past that's still missing that you'll find in TW1, don't worry. TW1 seems to have been written such that the writers thought whoever played it would've already read the books that the game takes place after. They apparently realized this wasn't the case, and designed TW2 and TW3 to give a lot more context on the whole "Who the fuck am I?" premise that Geralt is currently in. If you can get your hands on the books though, it's definitely a recommended read, but it's not mandatory to understand the core stories of all three games, though it might give you some insight.

Personally, I love the Witcher so I'd never leave TW1 unplayed, but I can understand if people choose to steer clear from it because of the gameplay (though I honestly don't think it's as bad as people say it is) even if they have the option to play it. It isn't a massive burden if you elect not to play it, especially if you choose to read the wikia on parts you might've missed.

Skip 1 and 2, play 3.

There's a little bit of reading to do, but Witcher 3 is pretty much the best place to start, to fully understand Geralt, and then go back and play his earlier adventures at your leisure.

Wild Hunt was fun as fuck.

Skip witcher 1, nothing of value will be lost.

I've heard you can just skip the first one. I played a little of the first two and didn't really enjoy it.

I played some of two and it was really clunky. Was really hesitant to play 3 because of that. But they really did go above and beyond what devs should do to fix their previous errors. and I spent ages trying to fight one of the earliest quest enemies on the hardest difficulty because I'm a total fucking dumbass AndI loved every second of it

Uninhabited*, 100% is habitable.

Well I wouldn't say that about the Arctic circle for 80% of the year...

Yeah, I know. I didn't say nobody went there for parts of the year, I said nobody lived there year round-as in the area closest to the pole is uninhabited. They may never go south of the tree line, but they don't go all the way either.

That's like saying that no one lives at their vacation cabin in the winter, but they do live 30 min down the road.

Secondly, look behind them, that is their village, and I can confirm that permanent villages and towns do exist in the arctic circle.

Same, since I moved to toronto, I pretty much forgot about em. Its all asians and indians here.

Where ya from originally?

A little town, out by Thunder Bay, called Atikokan.

Nice place, great hunting and fishing, and there's no crime except when the pot heads and druggies pull shit, or the young thug kids, or the reserve natives show up. All of which happens maybe once a month, an its stuff like stealing from a store or a bike missing.

Australia is even more so like that.

Yea but Canada is like, 80% forest and tundra
Australia is 80% sand, fire and things that will kill you.

Damn, I didn't know Canada had tigers

Dude, too many of the white-sky blue named fucks are ruining the site, better to lurk FJ now than be a part of the community.

You're just too fucking cool bud.

I thought they stopped making new RWBY when the creator died?

When does it come out?

opening animation if you want it

Wait a damn moment, wasn't qrow supposed to wield a scythe?
That's definitely a sword though it's prolly' also a scythe and a gun and a clock,apparently

that was pretty fucking dark
