The [VIDEO] tag here uses the HTML5 player but for some reason they have intentionally disabled the fullscreen button. It would be trivial to fix, you just have to addallowfullscreento the main iframe that contains the player.

Is there anything we can do to fix that on this forum? I haven't looked at it because I've seen that problem everywhere. It's so annoying though, it's almost a devious way to force yuo to go to the youtube site.

Do exactly what he says. You should be able to access the video tag template through Admin CP -> Custom BB Codes.
End result should look something like:
<iframe height="" width="" src="{---}" allowfullscreen>...</iframe>
Changing it in one spot will fix this problem retroactively site-wide. It's not YouTube deviousness, it's Rerolled admin laziness.

2 was a pretty solid game, even though some people disliked it. I might replay it at some point before witcher3 since I forgot most of what happened but it was pretty interesting and combat was fairly solid(unlike 1's).

The standard recommendation is to read a Plot Synopsis of Witcher 1 (if you care). And just play Witcher 2. It is a better game in every conceviable way.
If you want Witcher 2 to look even better get the High Res Textures mod from Nexus mods.
You don't need to know the Witcher 1 story to enjoy 2 either. I played 2 before I ever read any Witcher material or played one. After completeing 2 I bought all the English books and Witcher 1.
Don't skip 2, it's one of the best RPGs in a long long time.
The first witcher game had little to do with the book however the second started tying stuff from the book with mentions of Yennefer and a young girl (ciri) in the comic book cut scenes.
I believe the latest wicther 2 patch includes the high resolution textures.
The Witcher 3 game seems to be tailor made for fans of the book series with the appearances of some key characters. I highly recommend the books. The first three you can get for cheap and the rest are available as pretty decent fan translations since they have never been officially translated into English. There are some slow parts especially when he segues into unimportant characters but i just quickly skimmed those parts and they are only in the final two books.

Full Combat Rebalance 2
It is a rebalance mod made by one of the developers from the witcher 2. Sort of an enhanced version of the enhanced edition. Plays wonderfully with a controller too as it fixed a lot of the combat to be more fluid. IE: the ability that absorbs/stuns (quen?) is turned into a standard trigger ability with other magic abilities being slotted at the same time. It also lasts much shorter, so it is more of a "press to activate when needed" instead of a chore to constantly swapping to it pausing the flow of the combat considerably.
It also starts you off with maxed training abilities and a few abilities in every skill tree so you don't have to play for 5 hours to even get out of the training tree, but combat is balanced to it, so you won't really feel overpowered for long.

I'm not sure if I screwed up some setting somewhere, but playing on Normal I never died with the mod even going full YOLO and ignoring consumables/traps/bombs. Like, not even close and I remeber dying a bit in Flotsam, especially to the spiders from the trees when I started playing at release. Personally I recommend playing for a while with vanilla settings and then tweaking that if you don't like it.

The problem there is playing on Normal. FCR2 + Dark difficulty is the way to go.
I used to still be sure Elder scrolls was the number 1 RPG franchise... After Witcher 2 and now this I am not so sure.
