I am probably older than you, but I guess it is just what you want out of a game. I get that some like mature themes, and moral ambiguity. Myself though, I like a more clearly defined character, either evil or good. I know that is not realistic to what real life is like, but I play games to get away from real life, not necessarily to mirror it. And yes, I was pretty lost in all the politics and conspiracies. Maybe that is part of why I could not identify with the Witcher.
Witchers are pretty straight forward in regards to politics etc ,technically Witchers are supposed to be neutral in politics and only deal with monsters etc,however Geralt has a long history due to his long life span and has friends from his history even important/famous elves etc,Witcher 1 explains some of this(I finished it three times),end of the day you decide what you think is right with regards to politics etc when it comes to some of the decisions you can and have to make.
Good and evil well you have to remember what a Witcher is ie basically monsters hunters that deal with monster problems,Witchers have very long life spans due to their mutant genes that get paid so sort of monster bounty hunters.
Nothing really complicated about them.
The way I played it was straight forward,I did what I thought was right,my priority was being a Witcher and dealing with those issues,my friends I also helped for obvious reasons.
As to Witcher 2
near the end of the game you decide if you kill the other Witcher or not,he explains why he did those things etc,I killed him due to honouring the king he killed,also the bad Witcher not really acting like a Witcher ie going rogue in a way.
